Tencent's global headquarters unveiled: spend 37 billion to buy islands for employees.

To tell the truth, Gai Lou is nothing new, and Tencent has always been called "Gai Lou Madman".

However, this time Tencent moved its headquarters address out of Nanshan District and entered Shenzhen Dachan Bay.

According to media reports, Tencent Dachanwan Headquarters has invested 37 billion yuan with a total construction area of 2 million square meters, which will accommodate 8-65438+10,000 employees!

Upon completion, it will become the global headquarters of Tencent.

This headquarters

It's too big, isn't it?

In fact, the year before last, there was news that:

Tencent spent a huge sum of money, taking out nearly one-tenth of the annual profit, and spent 8.52 billion yuan to buy an island on the north side of Shenzhen QianHaixi-Dachanwan Port, with an area of 1.3 square kilometers.

As a result, Goose Factory became the island owner of Dachan Bay, and this land was affectionately called Penguin Island by netizens.

Recently, the true face of "Penguin Island" has really surfaced. The first feeling of netizens after watching "Penguin Island" is: How big!

To what extent?

According to official data:

The development scale is 2 million square meters, including R&D 6,543.8+0.5 million square meters, dormitory 6,543.8+0.9 million square meters, business 6,543.8+0.4 million square meters (including conference center 60,000 square meters and hotel 40,000 square meters), science and technology exhibition hall 5,000 square meters, data and wisdom management center 3,000 square meters and district gathering room 0.6 million square meters. ......

This future Tencent headquarters will include almost half an island with a total area of 6.5438+0.3 million square meters.

To convert, its land scale is 16 times that of Tencent Building, Tencent Binhai Building and Tencent Qianhai Building (under construction)!

Here, there will be 8-65,438+million Tencent employees working and living together, mainly including office areas, employee apartments, institutions, public facilities, schools, conference centers and so on.

In short, if you want to be here in Gai Lou, you will no longer be a few, and you have to keep double digits.

Network city

Hide many details

Tencent's definition of Penguin Island is "internet plus" as a future science and technology city.

As can be seen from the name, it feels like a big Internet company.

The design theme is "Network City", which comes from NBBJ, the design company of Tencent Binhai Building.

This "network city" led by a giant enterprise is currently planning to introduce seven industries such as Tencent Advertising, Tencent Cloud, Internet+medical care and cutting-edge technology to form a "six bases and one platform".

There are office areas, staff apartments, business units, public facilities, schools (9-year compulsory primary and secondary schools and high schools) and conference centers in the "Cyber City". It is said that it will be open to all citizens after completion.

Under this theme, there are some highlights.

For example, "smart transportation" means that people and cars are distributed at different levels through spatial stratification, so that people can see the seascape and park landscape at the same time.

Advanced technologies such as automatic driving, vehicle-road coordination, automatic parking, dynamic lane and right-of-way distribution will also be adopted to make the traffic in the park more efficient and safe.

Or the concept of "sustainable development" is also a bright spot.

It is reported that after the headquarters is completed, a self-sufficient organic ecosystem will be formed, photovoltaic solar panels will be installed on the roof of the building to generate electricity, and a water collection system will be installed in the park to manage surface water flow and achieve sustainable development.

Therefore, this "Penguin Island" not only has a large area, but also has comprehensive functions, which can meet people's needs in all aspects of work and life.

After that, the employees of Goose Factory who can work here are envious.

why

Tencent is already in Gai Lou?

Many people will ask why Tencent is in Gai Lou.

The most direct reason is that there are too many people and not enough space.

In 20 19, the total number of employees of Tencent in Shenzhen was about 38,000, and the office area was about 700,000 square meters. Except for the self-owned property area of 330,000 square meters, the remaining 370,000 square meters are all leased.

In other words, after Tencent pays employees, it also has to pay unnecessary expenses arising from a series of leases such as venue fees and property fees. This situation will become more and more exaggerated as the number of employees increases.

Compared with leasing, the shortage of office space caused by staff growth is more critical.

According to Tencent's own estimation, the number of employees will increase by 13% every year, and the total number will reach127,000 in the next seven years. According to the per capita office area of 20 square meters, it is178,000 square meters.

Subtract 330,000 square meters of Tencent Building and Binhai Building and 6,543,800 square meters of Qianhai Building currently under construction, and the future office space gap will reach 6,543,800 square meters.

Therefore, it is the direct reason why Tencent keeps coming to Gai Lou to keep up with the growth rate of personnel.

The global headquarters built this time can not only accommodate 8-65438+million employees, but also provide higher quality work and life experience, improve employees' sense of belonging and loyalty, and attract and retain more outstanding talents.

Facts tell us that this trick is really delicious.

Finally, according to Tencent employees, the name of the new headquarters has been signed on Tencent's intranet recently, and the first one to vote at present is Goose City.

What do you think of this name?
