We're building a super chaebol in Hong Kong
#814 - Li Chaoren's obsession
After listening to Zhang Qizheng's words, Su Cheng was also deeply surprised, never expecting that even buying a new car would mean not finding a suitable one.
"Alright, you don't need to worry about this matter. Just hand it over to Mr. McLeish when the time comes, and wait for him to discuss how to handle it with me. Your next job at China Bus will be to maintain the normal operation of China Bus and liaise with Mr. McLeish, that's all," Su Cheng said directly.
McLeish will be able to take office at the earliest by the end of this month or the beginning of next month.
When that time comes, Zhang Qizheng will naturally have to hand over the top position of China Bus to him.
As for Su Cheng, to put it nicely, he is the chairman of China Bus, but to put it bluntly, he is just a figurehead. He simply can't be bothered to deal with too many things.
Afterwards, the two chatted about a lot of work-related matters, including the situation at China Bus and Tianyuan Investment Company.
After staying in the Tianyuan Building for more than an hour, Su Cheng said goodbye to Zhang Qizheng.
Although his time in Singapore was not long, before returning, he specifically instructed his subordinates to go out and buy some souvenirs to bring back to Zhong Chuhong.
Singapore doesn't have too many special souvenirs, so Su Cheng had them pack some local specialties, such as pandan cake, nyonya cake, etc., into seven or eight bags of various sizes.
Girls all like romance, even when they are pregnant.
Therefore, if Su Cheng brings her gifts from Singapore, she will definitely be in a better mood, which is also good for the fetus.
At the same time, at the Cheung Kong Holdings Group's Singapore branch, Li Jiacheng finished the work at hand, looked at the time on his watch, and it was already past five o'clock in the afternoon.
After chatting with the person in charge of the branch about the work situation here, he finally waited until six o'clock in the afternoon.
So, he said goodbye to the person in charge of the branch, and couldn't wait to take his bodyguards and drive to a nearby coffee shop.
Although the appointment was for 6:30 pm, Li Jiacheng couldn't wait to arrive at the coffee shop early.
The coffee shop has private rooms, which are very suitable for private meetings.
This is where Li Jiacheng and McLeish will meet. The address is actually in a commercial building not far from the Haw Par Corporation. After McLeish gets off work, he can walk there in a few minutes.
In Li Jiacheng's mind, he must convince McLeish this time no matter what.
Cheung Kong Holdings Group has now encountered a bottleneck in its development. Although there are many talents in the group, there are no top talents at all, so he has to make decisions on major matters.
Therefore, his trip to Singapore this time is to bring McLeish to Cheung Kong Holdings Group, so as to share some of his work and give him time to plan other things, so as to make Cheung Kong Holdings Group's strength even higher.
Li Jiacheng's current status in Hong Kong can at most be regarded as a first-class wealthy businessman, and he can't be regarded as a top wealthy businessman at all, which he is very clear about.
Having reached this position, everyone wants to go further and reach the level of Hong Kong's top wealthy businessmen.
However, his energy is ultimately limited. Cheung Kong Holdings Group has actually encountered a bottleneck in its development in recent years. The speed of development is no longer increasing exponentially like it was a few years ago, but has changed from rapid growth to slow growth.
Therefore, he is very unwilling to just reach this point. He wants to go further.
And this is not something that can be achieved by just thinking about it. It requires him to put in more effort to have a chance, and the chance is not great, so he needs to seize the opportunity.
Just like last time, he originally planned to plot against Hutchison Whampoa, for which he first laid out Kowloon Wharf, intending to make Bao Ship King owe him a big favor.
Although the gap between his Cheung Kong Holdings Group and Hutchison Whampoa is very large, he also wants to try an ant swallowing an elephant.
As long as the timing is grasped, the matter of an ant swallowing an elephant may not be impossible to come true.
As a result, Kowloon Wharf was indeed acquired by Bao Ship King, but Hutchison Whampoa had no connection with him, but was acquired by Su Cheng.
Li Jiacheng is not very regretful about this, after all, Hutchison Whampoa Group itself is a behemoth to him. He just wanted to try it. It would be best if he succeeded, and he could also make a fortune if he didn't succeed.
Indeed, for this reason, he earned a full tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars in those two battles. This amount of money is not a small amount for him.
But his ambition is even greater.
Therefore, Li Jiacheng has now set his sights on Wheelock and intends to make arrangements in advance to see if there will be an opportunity to swallow this British-funded enterprise in the future.
The strength of Wheelock is not much worse than that of Hutchison Whampoa. If he can take down this British-funded enterprise, then he will be able to instantly become the head of Hong Kong's top consortium.
In that case, he will definitely have to devote a lot of energy to secretly arranging things, and Cheung Kong Holdings Group will definitely not have as much energy to manage as before.
Therefore, Cheung Kong Holdings Group is now very short of a capable talent to solve his problems.
Moreover, sometimes when Li Jiacheng encounters problems that even he himself cannot solve, he has no one to discuss them with, because the people around him have limited abilities. Whether in talent or knowledge, they cannot reach a very high position. The answers obtained by discussing many things with them are often very short-sighted answers.
Most of the time, Li Jiacheng can only slowly find ways to solve these problems himself, and can only rely entirely on himself.
But if McLeish is poached over, then he can discuss with McLeish how to solve these problems, and in the end, he may be able to come up with better answers.
As soon as he thought of McLeish's talented insight, Li Jiacheng was very satisfied. He was actually able to encounter such a talent. Since this is the case, he must take McLeish down!
Sitting alone in the private room, Li Jiacheng slowly drank the exquisite coffee that the waiter had just brought up, while occasionally looking at the Patek Philippe watch on his wrist.
Perhaps influenced by his uncle's watch business, Li Jiacheng is very fond of collecting famous watches. He has collected famous watches of various brands at home, and he especially likes the Patek Philippe brand.
However, perhaps because he likes to keep a low profile, Li Superman usually only wears an ordinary watch.
This time, because he was going to meet with McLeish, he was more careful and specially tidied up his appearance to make himself look more successful, so he put on this Patek Philippe that he usually only hides at home.
The workplace is ultimately a two-way choice. It's not that he is the boss, so he can have the final say in everything. Others can also choose not to work with him.
