We're building a super chaebol in Hong Kong

September arrived as scheduled.

Good news came from Ouyang Hai in England: negotiations with Wanderham Bank had concluded.

The other party's boss initially offered a price of 10 million pounds, but after a week of negotiations, the final agreed price was 8.3 million pounds, a full 1.7 million pounds less.

Moreover, of this 8.3 million pounds, only 5 million pounds needed to be paid upfront; the remaining 3.3 million pounds was money belonging to loan users and did not need to come from Su Cheng's side.

Wanderham Bank still had approximately 3.3 million pounds in outstanding loans. The bank's former owner would receive whatever amount was recovered from these loans, and Wanderham Bank would establish a designated repayment account.

The reason for ultimately agreeing to such harsh conditions was reportedly due to intense pressure from the bank's depositors, who were forming groups and surrounding his villa daily, demanding repayment. In desperation, their boss finally agreed to the terms proposed by Ouyang Hai's team.

The outstanding deposit of over 2.2 million pounds would be deducted from the 8.3 million pounds, and the depositors' funds would be repaid under the supervision of both parties.

After the bank's acquisition terms were agreed upon, a transaction was quickly reached between the two parties.

In the future, once a more suitable professional manager was found, a banking group could be established.

On September 1st, Ouyang Hai, who led the team, returned and met with Su Cheng.

Su Cheng also gave them the bonuses he had previously promised.

With 1.7 million pounds saved in negotiations, the 5% bonus amounted to 85,000 pounds.

Ouyang Hai's team consisted of 5 people, each receiving 17,000 pounds, which was not a small sum for them.

At the end of August, the exchange rate between the British pound and the Hong Kong dollar had risen to 1 pound equaling 10 Hong Kong dollars, so they each earned a bonus of 170,000 Hong Kong dollars in just over a week.

With such a generous boss, Ouyang Hai was naturally devoted to working for him.

On the afternoon of September 1st, Su Cheng received a call from Government House, inviting him to attend a charity auction.

On August 28th, a typhoon struck the villages of Tung Chung on Lantau Island, destroying many villagers' homes and leaving many local residents homeless.

Tung Chung, formerly known as Tung Chung Hau, is located in the center of the north shore of Lantau Island, facing the sea on one side and surrounded by mountains on three sides.

Opposite Tung Chung is Chek Lap Kok, which in the future will be reclaimed and developed into the new Hong Kong International Airport, leading to the closure of the old Kai Tak International Airport.

Tung Chung has many villages, and although it has not yet been established as a new town, the population of the dozen or so villages is tens of thousands, making it the most densely populated area on Lantau Island.

Therefore, the government launched post-disaster reconstruction work, and the charity auction was to raise funds for post-disaster reconstruction.

Hundreds of houses were completely destroyed, with even more houses damaged to varying degrees. Roads and mountains also needed to be repaired. After preliminary estimates, the entire Lantau Island suffered economic losses of over 100 million Hong Kong dollars.

Fortunately, the population was evacuated in advance, so there were no casualties, which was a blessing in disguise.

The reconstruction funds required were as high as tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars, and the Hong Kong Treasury Department could not possibly bear the entire burden alone.

The typhoon's path was westward towards the Pearl River Estuary, so although there was also strong wind and heavy rain in the urban area, the disaster was not as severe as on Lantau Island.

Su Cheng naturally couldn't refuse to participate in such an event, so he agreed.

Soon, Su Cheng received an invitation letter from Government House.

The charity auction was scheduled for 8 p.m. on September 2nd and would be co-organized by the renowned Hong Kong Royal International Art Auction, with the venue being the Hong Kong Museum of Art.

Time quickly came to September 2nd. Today was Saturday, and Chingmy Yau returned to the villa.

This weekend, neither of the two film crews had filming plans for Chingmy Yau, and the artist training class was also closed on weekends, so she had time to come to Su Cheng's side.

"Accompany me to the art museum tonight," Su Cheng said with a smile as he turned around.

At this time, Chingmy Yau stood obediently behind Su Cheng, massaging his shoulders.

In Hong Kong in September, perhaps because the typhoon had just passed, the rain had stopped in the morning, but the sun had not yet come out.

Therefore, sitting on the terrace did not feel stuffy. On the contrary, because of the sea breeze, the temperature was somewhat cool.

"Okay," Chingmy Yau paused her hand movements for a moment, then continued to massage.

Although she didn't know what Su Cheng wanted her to do at the art museum, she only needed to listen to her boss's instructions and wouldn't question them.

"I will be attending a charity auction at the art museum, and you will help me bid," Su Cheng explained the reason for taking her to the art museum.

"Ah, Boss, I haven't participated in an auction before. I don't know anything. Will I embarrass you?" Chingmy Yau was a little hesitant after hearing this.

"It's okay, I haven't participated either. It's just an auction, no need to be nervous," Su Cheng said with a smile.

"Okay, I will try to perform better and strive not to embarrass you, Boss," Chingmy Yau was very cute at this time.

Now, she is considered a celebrity in Hong Kong. The role of Shan Rou she played is deeply loved by everyone.

As for "My Date with a Vampire," although she also played the important female lead Wang Zhenzhen, it hasn't started airing yet, so there's naturally nothing to talk about.

Su Cheng directly pulled her from behind to the front, letting her sit on his lap, watching the distant scenery together…

In the evening, Su Cheng and Chingmy Yau had a candlelight dinner together, and it wasn't until 7:20 p.m. that they slowly got up and went out.

The Hong Kong Museum of Art is located on the 9th to 11th floors of the City Hall on Edinburgh Place in Central, not far from Su Cheng's villa. The drive is only about ten minutes if there is no traffic, so there was no need to go too early.

The car drove along Garden Road, then turned to Queen's Road Central, and after turning a few roads, arrived at the City Hall on Edinburgh Place in Central.

At this time, the parking lot outside the City Hall, like the last time I went to Government House for a dinner party, was already full of various luxury cars, but on a larger scale.

It can be seen that those who came to participate in this charity auction were all wealthy people in Hong Kong.

Those who could be invited were definitely in the billionaire class in Hong Kong.

I had something to do tonight and came home late, there is one more chapter, I will code it after I wake up, I can't stay up anymore, good night~
