Chapter 82 Investing Ten Billion
After knowing this, Su Cheng paid more attention to his personal safety.
At least for these two days, he needs to be more careful.
For this reason, Su Cheng specially sent extra manpower to the villa. When he went out, he also went out with several cars.
His Rolls-Royce Phantom VI is a bulletproof armored vehicle, and its safety has also been improved a lot.
He can still trust the top bodyguards from Tianhe Bodyguard Company. With them, he feels much safer.
At around one o'clock in the afternoon, Su Cheng went out. Although he knew that a killer might be targeting him, he didn't even dare to go out.
Arrived at the Hong Kong Governor's Office, Su Cheng came to MacLehose's office under the guidance of the staff.
The 61-year-old MacLehose can be said to be the longest-serving governor of Hong Kong in history.
Now, he has the last four years of his tenure in Xiangjiang. This time is neither long nor short, so it is necessary for Su City to maintain a good relationship with him.
"Mr. Su, please sit over here." Seeing Su Cheng come in, Mailihao, who was sitting at the desk, stood up and walked to the guest sofa aside.
"Thank you." After Su Cheng said this, he sat on the sofa opposite Mailihao.
"Mr. Su, would you like something to drink?" Mailihao asked.
“Bring me a cup of tea.” Su Cheng smiled.
“Most of the Chinese people I know like to drink tea.” Mailihao also said with a smile.
"After all, this is the culture passed down by our ancestors. The relationship between Chinese people and tea has been engraved in their genes, and it is difficult to change." Su Cheng said.
"In this regard, we British and you Chinese have a common hobby. In the UK, drinking tea is also a very popular culture." Mailihao laughed.
In people’s minds, British people prefer to drink coffee. In fact, they are more popular to drink tea.
What is different from the Chinese people’s tea drinking habits is that the British like to add milk and sugar to the tea when drinking tea.
A few words brought the relationship between the two closer.
"Actually, I was very curious about Mr. Su when I first heard his name. At this young age, if you can achieve such results by yourself, even in the whole world, you are probably the only one who can do it." Mailihao Praise Sioux City.
"I admire Mr. Governor's character even more. Under the governance of Mr. Governor, our economy in Hong Kong has taken off and become one of the fastest-growing regions in the world. I think you have made the greatest contribution." Su Cheng They also began to boast about Mailihao's great achievements.
Anyway, you don’t have to pay taxes for bragging, but MacLehose is indeed very capable, and everyone recognizes this.
"Mr. Su can build such a family business at such an age. You must have unique insights in economic construction. Then Mr. Su thinks that our current economic situation in Hong Kong still needs some What needs to be changed? "
In response to Su Cheng's praise, Mailihao smiled and didn't say much, but asked him about it. "Xiangjiang is doing very well in finance, shipping, and trade now, but I think Xiangjiang still has a lot of shortcomings." Su Cheng said without thinking.
“Oh? I’d like to hear the details!” Mailihao became curious.
He feels that under his management, Xiangjiang has done very well. Not to mention the troika of finance, shipping and trade, even in terms of industrial development, Xiangjiang has become a world-famous industrialized city. , many manufacturing products are sold all over the world.
“Mr. Governor, you should also know Singapore very well. Taking advantage of their superior location, they began to vigorously develop the oil industry in the 1960s. Today, Singapore has become a beautiful country. The world's third largest oil refining center after the Netherlands, and looking at our oil industry, Xiangjiang is not outstanding.
In addition, the future world is a world of technology. Although Xiangjiang's industry is relatively developed, it is actually based on it. Mainly textile industry, watch industry, toys, small household appliances, etc. In terms of high technology, our city is very backward. I have been to Silicon Valley, where I deeply realized that technology is the mainstream of the future. "
Su City directly addressed two of Xiangjiang's shortcomings.
“Actually, we have seen the prospects of the oil industry and attached great importance to it. During the Second World War, the oil industry in Xiangjiang achieved certain development. The military operations required a large amount of oil supply, which accelerated the development of Xiangjiang's oil industry. However, during the Japanese invasion, we evacuated for a period of time, and Xiangjiang's oil industry gradually declined.
After I took office, A series of economic reform measures began to be implemented, including attracting foreign investment, encouraging investment, expanding exports, etc. These policies provided certain development opportunities for Xiangjiang's oil industry.
During this period, some international oil companies began to develop. While investing in and building petrochemical plants and oil depots in Hong Kong, some local companies also began to get involved in the oil industry.
However, due to Singapore's early arrival, they began to vigorously develop the oil industry in the 1960s, and international oil companies became more involved. The tendency to invest more heavily in Singapore has resulted in Xiangjiang having a huge disadvantage in terms of development resources. Therefore, the oil industry is still developing at a mediocre rate.
As for the high-tech industry, we naturally know this, but it is impossible to develop high-tech like Silicon Valley and Japan because we have an inherent disadvantage, which is the shortage of scientific and technological talents.
Whether it is Silicon Valley or Japan, their high-tech companies are basically established in places where universities are very concentrated. Without a shortage of talents, they have been able to develop rapidly. In contrast, we in Hong Kong , does not have this advantage. "
Mai Lihao patiently told Su Cheng a lot. It can be seen that these were actually planned by him, but unfortunately they failed to meet expectations.
" Xiangjiang's The geographical location is not inferior to that of Singapore. As one of the international shipping centers, Xiangjiang has a large number of large ships arriving or docking at the docks for supply every day. Therefore, in this area alone, the demand for oil in Xiangjiang is already very high. As the whole country There are more and more vehicles, airplanes, ships and other means of transportation using petroleum as energy in the world. Petroleum will definitely become a very scarce resource. If Hong Kong lags behind in this development, I think it will be a big loss. "Su Cheng sighed.
"I heard that Mr. Su bought an oil refinery on Lamma Island. Is it because Mr. Su is very optimistic about the oil industry? "Mai Lihao asked with a smile.
"This is just my small test. In fact, I also bought a house in Singapore, and the scale is several times that of the one on Lamma Island. I plan to invest heavily in the oil industry. Now I am considering whether it is better to invest in Singapore or Xiangjiang. For reasons and reasons, I should invest in Xiangjiang. After all, this is the place where I was born and raised. However, if I invest in Singapore, the advantages will be greater because it is there. The industrial chain is more complete, and the policies are also very good." Su City looked very confused.
"Mr. Su is from Xiangjiang. Of course, it is better to invest in Xiangjiang. And if the investment scale is large enough, our policies can also be modified reasonably. As for the industrial chain, it will naturally not be a problem once it is developed. , I wonder how much Mr. Su plans to invest?" Mailihao asked curiously.
According to his guess, even if Su City invests heavily, it will only be an investment of hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars. However, if Su City invests in Hong Kong, it can become the leading company in Hong Kong's oil industry.
“According to my plan, I plan to invest HK$10 billion in the oil industry!” Su Cheng said with a smile.
"What? Ten billion Hong Kong dollars?" MacLehose felt that he must have heard wrong.
