We're building a super chaebol in Hong Kong

The next day, early in the morning, Su Cheng had the driver send Guan Jiahui to school.

Although most of the reporters from the major international media outlets had already left, Su Cheng didn't want to show his face so quickly.

After all, the title of "World's Richest Man" was a very exaggerated one. Even if the out-of-town reporters had all left, if Su Cheng appeared in front of the public now, it would still cause a huge sensation.

However, just as Su Cheng was planning to rest at home for the next few days, a phone call disrupted his plans.

The call was from the Governor's Mansion, and it was actually from MacLehose himself.

In the phone call, MacLehose invited him to go to the Governor's Mansion at two o'clock in the afternoon, but he didn't elaborate on the specific matter over the phone.

MacLehose was now the top leader in Hong Kong, and since most of Su Cheng's industries were in Hong Kong, he still had to give him face.

At noon, accompanied by Ajiao and Amei, Su Cheng happily ate lunch.

Although Governor MacLehose's invitation made him curious about what it was about, he wasn't worried about anything.

Ajiao and Amei, after having the most intimate contact with Su Cheng, moved to the second floor, each with their own room.

As for why they weren't allowed to move to the third floor, it was naturally because it was sometimes inconvenient.

Guan Jiahui and Zhong Chuhong basically came here every once in a while, and if Ajiao and Amei both lived on the third floor, it would be a very awkward situation.

Last night, Ajiao and Amei were very concerned about the movements upstairs, so they vaguely knew that the relationship between Guan Jiahui and Su Cheng was not as simple as "dry brother" and "dry sister."

Therefore, today Ajiao and Amei were very eager to please, almost feeding Su Cheng spoonful by spoonful, but Su Cheng refused.

It was okay for them to feed him grapes, but feeding him rice was only necessary for infants and patients who couldn't take care of themselves.

At 1:40 in the afternoon, Su Cheng directly called the bodyguards and set off for the Governor's Mansion.

He didn't take that particularly conspicuous Rolls-Royce, but instead took a very ordinary Volkswagen car.

However, although these cars looked like ordinary and cheap small cars on the surface, they were actually modified.

In Su Cheng's villa garage, there were a total of five small cars parked.

In addition to a Rolls-Royce and a Land Rover, the other three were ordinary sedans.

These five sedans had all been specially modified, especially in terms of safety. The tires were custom-made, the glass was bulletproof, and the car bodies were reinforced with a layer of steel plate. Even if they were shot with submachine guns, they might not be able to penetrate them in a short period of time. The safety was very high.

These five cars were like five mobile metal fortresses, and their mission was to shield their master from fatal attacks.

The disadvantages were that the car body was heavy, not light enough, and consumed a lot of fuel, but these were not problems for Su Cheng.

Three ordinary sedans drove out of the Su family villa and headed straight for the Governor's Mansion.

At 1:50, Su Cheng's motorcade successfully arrived outside the Governor's Mansion.

Today, Governor MacLehose actually came out to greet Su Cheng in person.

This was perhaps the aura that the world's richest man brought him, forcing MacLehose to put down his status and come out to greet him.

Beside Governor MacLehose, there was also a foreigner. Su Cheng recognized him as Jardine Matheson's Taipan, Newbigging.

"Huh, what is he doing here?" Su Cheng thought in surprise.

"Mr. Su, welcome to your arrival, it's an honor for the Governor's Mansion!" MacLehose said with a hearty laugh, actually using a Chinese idiom.

MacLehose was a man of few words, calm in his dealings, approachable in his style, and fluent in Chinese.

So, it was perfectly normal for him to know idioms.

"Mr. Su, hello." Jardine Matheson's Taipan, Newbigging, also greeted Su Cheng very politely.

However, Newbigging didn't say much. After all, Su Cheng wasn't familiar with him. Strictly speaking, they had once been business rivals.

During the Wharf battle, Su Cheng and Newbigging had a bad relationship at the time.

"Governor, Mr. Newbigging, hello." Su Cheng smiled and shook hands with them one by one.

Before knowing why they had called him over, Su Cheng didn't plan to say too much.

"Mr. Su, please come in and have a seat!" MacLehose made a gesture of invitation.

Su Cheng nodded and followed MacLehose and Newbigging into the Governor's Mansion, eventually arriving at MacLehose's office.

This wasn't the first time Su Cheng had been to his office. In fact, he had been here several times.

So, Su Cheng was relatively familiar with this place.

Finally, the three of them arrived at the reception area in the office.

"Mr. Su, congratulations on becoming the world's richest man. You are the pride of Hong Kong!" As soon as he sat down, MacLehose praised him again.

After all, this was being reported by media outlets all over the world, which meant that the whole world recognized Su Cheng as the richest man, and it wasn't just one or two media outlets saying this.

This could indeed be considered the glory of Hong Kong!

The birth of a world's richest man showed that Hong Kong's business environment was very good.

This would also attract many investors to invest in Hong Kong and make Hong Kong more prosperous. This was the benefit that Su Cheng's becoming the world's richest man brought to Hong Kong.

"Yes, Mr. Su can be called the number one person in Hong Kong's business community. Congratulations, Mr. Su!" Newbigging said immediately after MacLehose finished speaking.

The tone of his voice actually had some ingratiating meaning.

Su Cheng looked at Newbigging in surprise. Was this still the arrogant Jardine Matheson Taipan?

Even if he became the world's richest man, there was no need to compliment himself like this. After all, Jardine Matheson and himself didn't have any business dealings.

Unless, he needed something from him.

Su Cheng immediately thought of the key to the problem.

Before, when Bao Ship King invited him, he had told him that Jardine Matheson wanted to find a successor to sell the Wharf shares that Jardine Matheson already held.

Now, Su Cheng was the person most likely to be able to buy the shares in their hands.

Perhaps this was the reason why Newbigging was here today?

Thinking of this, Su Cheng was no longer so curious.

Why would Newbigging meet with Su Cheng here?

It was very simple. After all, Jardine Matheson was a British trading house, and MacLehose was also the British representative in Hong Kong. If the British trading house needed help, MacLehose would naturally help if he could.

"Governor, Mr. Newbigging, you are exaggerating too much. I know my own abilities. The world is too big. Only when you go out do you know how small you are. There are countless rich people in the world. Invisible rich people never show their wealth. On the surface, my wealth is indeed a lot, but I think there may be many people with more wealth than me!" Su Cheng said modestly.
