We're building a super chaebol in Hong Kong
#66 - Hutchison Whampoa Directors Meeting
"You don't need to worry about reputation," Su Cheng said with a smile. "In the future, the funds of the Su's Group will go through our bank, as well as the funds of Tianyuan Investment Company and Tianhe International Security Company. This will guarantee the maintenance of our bank's basic capital."
As for Hutchison International, because they signed an agreement with HSBC to have their funds go through them for three years, we don't need to consider Hutchison Whampoa's financial funds for the time being.
Of course, Su Cheng's dividends can naturally be drawn out and deposited into Kerry Bank at that time.
Although the purpose of setting up a bank is to make it easier to mobilize funds, Su Cheng would not refuse if some wealthy people in Hong Kong deposited their money into Kerry Bank.
The bank's reputation is quite simple. As long as Su Cheng becomes more and more successful, more and more people will naturally trust Kerry Bank.
Real assets definitely need to be hidden, but he doesn't plan to keep a low profile. For example, he can first become the richest man in Hong Kong, only needing to reveal a portion of his assets.
This goal is not far away.
"Okay, boss, then I will develop in the direction of private banking. How should we handle the bank's current deposits?" Ouyang Hai asked.
"You should issue a notice to all users stating that Kerry Bank is about to undergo business adjustments. To prevent the bank from going bankrupt, savings users will naturally withdraw their deposits. As for the loan business, you can temporarily not adjust it and slowly develop in the direction of private banking in the future," Su Cheng said.
He really doesn't care about the total deposits of several million Hong Kong dollars. It's better to let the savings users withdraw their money directly, so that Kerry Bank can be better upgraded and adjusted.
Once Kerry Bank is adjusted, his funds can be transferred into Kerry Bank. It's more convenient to have such a large sum of money in his own hands.
"By the way, after a while, our bank will open a branch in Europe. The easiest way is to acquire a bank there. Be prepared, our bank will become larger and larger. If you can handle it, I won't replace you as general manager, but if your ability doesn't meet the requirements, I'll have to choose someone else," Su Cheng said suddenly and seriously.
When working for him, ability is the most important thing. If the ability doesn't meet the requirements, he will replace people without any sentimentality.
"Don't worry, boss, I will work hard!" After hearing Su Cheng's words, Ouyang Hai not only didn't show a worried expression, but instead looked excited.
For him, switching jobs here was to hope for a good development opportunity. Now, the opportunity is right in front of him, so he naturally won't miss it.
As for ability, he believes he is no worse than others.
"Then that's all for today. Contact me if you need anything," Su Cheng said, nodding.
Leaving Kerry Bank, Su Cheng went straight back to the villa on Barker Road.
Having just returned, he wasn't in a hurry to go anywhere. He still needed to rest.
Back at the villa, Zhong Chuhong was no longer there. After all, she had been in Europe for almost a month, and it was time for her to go home.
Moreover, as graduation approached, she had to go to school to handle graduation matters properly.
Therefore, Su Cheng simply gave her a vacation during this time, and it wouldn't be too late for her to come back when she had settled everything.
"Boss, Hong Kong is still the best. It's all Chinese people here. Although I can't speak Cantonese, I can still integrate well into this living environment," Yang Chaoye said with great emotion as soon as he saw Su Cheng.
Today, he took his wife out to stroll around Hong Kong. Being in Hong Kong, which is almost entirely Chinese, he felt particularly close.
He is from Fujian Province and has rarely been here, so he naturally can't speak Cantonese, but being able to speak Mandarin, he has no problem communicating here.
Moreover, he found that there are also many people from Fujian Province in Hong Kong, and he can hear the Fujian dialect from time to time, which makes him feel even closer to this place.
The North Point residential area is even known as "Little Southern Fujian", and among the entire Hong Kong population, fellow villagers from Fujian account for one-sixth of the total population of Hong Kong.
"Therefore, our ancestors said that people should return to their roots, which is the reason why even if you are rich, you will miss your hometown when you are old. Although Hong Kong is not your hometown, there are people here who are the same ethnicity as you, so it will naturally be easy to integrate into the living environment here," Su Cheng said with a smile.
"I specifically looked for several residences today. I think the Harbour View Garden in Central is quite suitable for me for the time being, so I rented an apartment there. If nothing unexpected happens, I will move over there with my wife tomorrow. In addition, I think I can officially start working the day after tomorrow. I need to work while better integrating into Hong Kong society," Yang Chaoye continued.
Although he is already sixty years old, he is very sturdy. Even after a 20-hour long-distance flight, he is still energetic, which is better than many young people. This shows that Yang Chaoye's body is in excellent condition.
This is naturally beneficial to Su Cheng. The better his health, the better he can help Su Cheng develop the Su's Group.
"Okay, then I will arrange for a few bodyguards to help you tomorrow. Feel free to contact me if you need anything," Su Cheng said, nodding. He knew that some people didn't like being dependent on others, so he naturally wouldn't say anything more.
In the evening, Su Cheng received a call from Wei Li. The board meeting had been arranged and would take place at 10:00 AM the next day.
After a normal night's rest, Su Cheng got up at nine o'clock the next day.
Arriving at the Hutchison House, under the guidance of the beautiful receptionist, he quickly arrived at the boardroom on the 15th floor.
Seeing Su Cheng coming in, all the Hutchison Whampoa directors looked over.
In the conference room, everyone was a foreigner, without a single Asian.
After all, Hutchison Whampoa was originally a very pure British company, which is not surprising at all.
Now, Su Cheng, this Chinese boy, not only seems out of place here, but has also become the largest shareholder of the Hutchison Whampoa Group.
This is actually quite difficult for a group of directors to accept, which is one of the reasons why Wei Li reacted so strongly when the news first came out.
Deep down, they have always felt that the British in Hong Kong should be superior, and British companies should be higher than Chinese companies.
However, now the major shareholder of Hutchison Whampoa, one of the famous four great foreign firms in Hong Kong, has become Chinese.
Is Hutchison Whampoa still a British company?
This is what they find most difficult to accept.
However, the matter has become a reality, and even if they can't accept it, they can only face reality.
"Hello everyone, I am Su Cheng. I am very happy to be able to become a director of Hutchison Whampoa with you," Su Cheng said with a smile as soon as he entered the door. As for whether they welcomed him or not, that was their business.
