We're building a super chaebol in Hong Kong
#578 - There is news about the Eastern Harbour Tunnel
Being moved meant there was a great deal of hope.
Moreover, according to the information Su Cheng obtained from Xiao Ai, Mr. Bei's wife was from Hong Kong!
Mr. Bei didn't have many relatives here, but his wife in Hong Kong still had some.
He might not have deep feelings for Hong Kong, but Mrs. Bei had deep feelings for Hong Kong!
Women all liked to reminisce about the past.
If he discussed this matter with his wife, she would definitely agree to come to Hong Kong to live.
Therefore, the actual difficulty of poaching Mr. Bei was even lower than poaching Zhang Zhongmou.
"Mr. Bei, you should be working in Hong Kong for a long time to come. During this time, Mr. Bei can experience the atmosphere of life in Hong Kong, especially in Kowloon, which is full of the human touch of us Chinese people. America's Chinatown simply cannot compare!" Su Cheng said with a smile.
"Then I have to experience it properly!" Mr. Bei said with a smile.
Over the years, he had traveled to many different countries and cities on business, but he basically traveled between hotels and workplaces. Although he also had his own vacations, he had never really experienced the atmosphere of life in a strange city.
Su Cheng sat in the spacious reception room and chatted with Mr. Bei for a long time.
Of course, most of the time, Su Cheng was listening to Mr. Bei, listening to him talk about his youth.
At that time, China was full of war, but because Mr. Bei's family was quite well-off, he did not suffer too many difficulties because of it.
Su Cheng was also happy to listen to them talk about some small stories that happened in this period of history, after all, he had not experienced it himself.
After a long time, Mr. Bei said goodbye to Su Cheng.
After all, there was an age gap between the two of them, and they were not familiar with each other. It was rare to be able to chat for so long.
A skyscraper of more than 500 meters could definitely not be designed in a short period of time.
Moreover, although Mr. Bei had also designed buildings of 200 to 300 meters in height, a building of more than 500 meters was also a challenge for him.
Therefore, Mr. Bei needed to stay in Hong Kong for a long time, possibly several months.
Next, Su Cheng only needed to wait for Mr. Bei's team to produce a design plan. If he was not satisfied, they would continue to change to other plans until Su Cheng was satisfied.
In the blink of an eye, another week had passed, and today was already April 23rd.
At this time, Su Cheng, who was at home, received a call from the Hong Kong Transport Department.
The call was made by the head of the Highways Department himself, regarding the joint venture to build the Eastern Harbour Crossing, and Su Cheng needed to go there tomorrow.
Previously, Governor MacLehose had convened Hong Kong's top tycoons to discuss this matter. At that time, Su Cheng strived to be the first to build the Eastern Harbour Crossing, even if he funded the construction alone.
Because, after the completion of the Eastern Harbour Crossing, the benefits to him were too many.
Now, many sites in Tseung Kwan O and Clear Water Bay belonged to him, and they were still under major development.
Roads lead to wealth. If the Eastern Harbour Crossing was completed, it would be much more convenient to go to Tseung Kwan O from Hong Kong Island.
If there were no accidents, this Eastern Harbour Crossing would run from Quarry Bay next to North Point to Kwun Tong on the opposite side.
And Tseung Kwan O was next to Kwun Tong. Although separated by a large mountain, after the tunnel was opened, it would only take a few minutes to go from Kwun Tong to Tseung Kwan O.
Therefore, after the completion of this Eastern Harbour Crossing, it would greatly increase the value of Tseung Kwan O itself.
Now that Su Cheng had bought such a large piece of land in Tseung Kwan O, he naturally hoped that the value of that land would be as high as possible.
Moreover, since Su Cheng stuffed 100 million Hong Kong dollars into the MTR Corporation, the subway station extending from Kwun Tong to Tseung Kwan O had already started construction. In the future, Tseung Kwan O would become more and more convenient in shipping and land transportation. When the subway was opened, it would be able to attract tourists from other areas of Hong Kong to Tseung Kwan O for tourism. The northern part of the area was being built into a large-scale tourist resort group.
Was the investment of 100 million Hong Kong dollars to support the extension of the subway from Kwun Tong to Tseung Kwan O a lot?
In this era, it was a lot.
But for Su Cheng, the investment of 100 million Hong Kong dollars was very worthwhile.
After the subway was opened, the value it would bring to Tseung Kwan O would be more than one billion Hong Kong dollars, let alone one hundred million!
And the news of the Eastern Harbour Crossing made Su Cheng feel that this was really a double blessing for Tseung Kwan O.
Therefore, this call from the Highways Department was very good news for Su Cheng.
In Su Cheng's opinion, he was already very surprised by the speed of the Hong Kong government.
The last time MacLehose summoned them to discuss this matter was in October of last year.
The newest novel is at 69shu.com!
Now, only half a year had passed, and the matter had been finalized. The speed could be said to be extremely fast.
Therefore, the Eastern Harbour Crossing, which was being planned, was also under the responsibility of the Highways Department.
Even the subway under construction required the Highways Department to intervene in some of the work.
Su Cheng naturally strongly supported this matter, so he directly printed the head of the Highways Department, and he would arrive there on time the next day to meet with them to discuss this matter.
April 24, Kowloon Ho Man Tin.
Su Cheng sat in his Rolls-Royce and arrived here at three o'clock in the afternoon. The Highways Department's office was located in Ho Man Tin.
The Highways Department did not have an independent office building. Its office department was located in the Ho Man Tin Government Complex.
Under the guidance of the staff, Su Cheng smoothly arrived at a conference room.
In the conference room, a very large oval conference table occupied half of the entire conference room.
At this time, many bigwigs had already arrived in the conference room, such as HSBC's Michael Sandberg, Swire Group's Sir Yue-kong Pao, Jardine Matheson's David Newbigging, World-Wide Shipping Group's Bao Yue-kong, Wheelock and Marden's John Marden, etc., even more than the last time Governor MacLehose summoned.
