We're building a super chaebol in Hong Kong

After chatting with Brother Wu in the presidential suite's hall for a long time, the time quickly came to 6:40 in the evening.

Su Cheng looked at the clock on the wall, then stood up from the sofa and said to Brother Wu with a smile, "Let's go, it's time to head over, lest others think we're putting on airs."

Brother Wu nodded and followed Su Cheng out the door, took the elevator, and directly pressed the button for the floor where the banquet was being held.

In the elevator, several foreigners came in one after another, some were white, and some were black.

They obviously recognized Su Cheng as well and took the initiative to greet him.

From their conversation, Su Cheng learned that these foreigners were from Ethiopia, Jordan, Peru, and Panama respectively.

It turned out that these people didn't live here, but in another hotel several kilometers away where diplomats were more concentrated, so they were a bit late.

Seeing the way they were trying to please Su Cheng while chatting, it was obvious that they hoped to get Su Cheng to invest, which would definitely help them advance in their political careers.

After all, they were all small countries, and Su Cheng could understand.

If it were leaders of those major countries, although they also hoped that Su Cheng would invest, they certainly wouldn't say anything too flattering, after all, major countries also have their dignity.

Su Cheng naturally had no intention of making large-scale investments in these countries, because it was completely unnecessary.

It would be fine for his companies to conduct sales in these countries, but investing in production was out of the question.

Even just as sales markets, these countries were too small to even mention for Su Cheng; the market size of Hong Kong was larger than all of them combined.

Therefore, Su Cheng chose to chat with them in a perfunctory manner.

The elevator quickly arrived at the floor where the banquet was being held.

After handing over the invitation, Su Cheng smoothly entered the banquet hall.

What appeared before Su Cheng was a banquet hall with an area of nearly a thousand square meters.

The entire banquet hall was already filled with many people, and on the main stage, many national flags were hung, and Su Cheng even found the five-star red flag among them.

It was said that this time, the Japanese government not only invited the dozens of visiting national leaders, but also the ambassadors of other countries stationed in Japan.

Therefore, this banquet was attended by representatives from the vast majority of countries around the world.

It could be seen that the Japanese government had put a lot of thought into organizing this banquet.

Among these people, Su Cheng even discovered a familiar face, that was the current Governor of Hong Kong, Murray MacLehose.

At this time, Murray MacLehose was chatting with a foreigner.

So, Su Cheng smiled and walked towards Murray MacLehose.

Su Cheng's appearance did not cause any disturbance on the scene, because at this time the leaders and diplomats of various countries on the scene were chatting with people in their own circles, and no one noticed who came in at the entrance.

This also made Su Cheng feel a lot more relaxed, after all, this banquet was hosted by the Japanese government, and it would not be good if he stole too much of the limelight.

"Governor, I didn't expect to see you here in Tokyo," Su Cheng said with a smile as he brought Brother Wu to Murray MacLehose's side.

Murray MacLehose was still chatting when he didn't notice Su Cheng's arrival. He was surprised and turned around when he heard Su Cheng's voice.

"Mr. Su, I didn't expect you to attend this banquet as well. I also heard that you came to Japan. I was just about to ask someone for your contact information to visit you," Murray MacLehose was dressed very formally today, looking somewhat refined.

"I didn't know that the Governor was also coming, otherwise I would have personally visited you," Su Cheng said with a smile.

"By the way, let me introduce you. This is the British Ambassador to Japan, Mr. Alistair Labouchere," Murray MacLehose turned around and introduced the foreigner to Su Cheng.

Before Su Cheng could speak, the British Ambassador to Japan opened his mouth with a smile, "Sir Su Cheng, I've heard of you for a long time. I didn't expect to have the opportunity to meet you in Japan today."

Su Cheng was knighted as a KBE by the Queen of England herself. For these British people, Su Cheng was considered one of their own.

Therefore, the British Ambassador to Japan was very friendly in his tone towards Su Cheng.

"Hello, Ambassador," Su Cheng politely shook hands with him.

Whether it was Murray MacLehose or Alistair Labouchere, they were both representatives of the United Kingdom stationed abroad, so the ambassador's status was not low.

However, Su Cheng had no common interests with him, so there was no need to say too many polite words to him.

Everyone guessed the reason why Su Cheng came to Japan, and Su Cheng could be regarded as a hot figure in the recent Japanese news, so the two did not ask Su Cheng why he appeared in Japan, which was nonsense.

"Governor, were you also invited by the Japanese government to visit Japan?" Su Cheng asked curiously.

"Yes, I was invited two weeks ago, but I only arrived in Tokyo yesterday. Currently, Japan's influence abroad continues to decline. They hope to win over leaders from various countries and regions to stabilize or even increase their influence. I heard that this time, Japan will spend a lot of money and promise to provide a large amount of funds to many small and medium-sized countries. Today's Japan is rich and powerful, and they want to use money to increase their say in the international community. At the same time, because of various events recently, everyone's impression of Japan is particularly poor, so they also hope to take this opportunity to improve everyone's impression of Japan," Perhaps because Su Cheng was one of their own, Murray MacLehose said everything he knew.

"Sir Su Cheng, you are the key figure in this Japanese incident. Few people in the world can make such a big move," Alistair Labouchere continued with a smile.

If it weren't for Su Cheng's press conference, Japan would not be in such an awkward situation today, and the Yamakou Group would not have been destroyed as a result.

As for those national leaders or diplomats, they were still chatting. If it weren't for the applause, few people would have noticed the situation at the entrance of the banquet hall.

Su Cheng turned around and saw that it was the Japanese Prime Minister entering the venue.

Following the Japanese Prime Minister into the venue were also many senior Japanese officials.

Looking at the time, it was exactly 7:00 in the evening.

It seemed that they had deliberately come in on time, which was quite painstaking for such a small matter.

"The main character has arrived," Alistair Labouchere said to Su Cheng and Murray MacLehose with a smile.
