We're building a super chaebol in Hong Kong
#82 - Invest 10 billion
After learning about this, Su Cheng became even more cautious about his personal safety.
At least for these next two days, he needed to be careful.
Therefore, Su Cheng specifically increased the number of personnel at the villa, and when he went out, he also had several cars go together.
His Rolls-Royce Phantom VI was an armored vehicle, which also greatly improved its safety.
He still trusted the top bodyguards from Tianhe Bodyguard Company, and with them around, he felt much safer.
A little after one o'clock in the afternoon, Su Cheng went out. Although he knew that there might be assassins targeting him, he wouldn't be so afraid as to not even dare to leave the house.
Arriving at the Government House, Su Cheng was led by a staff member to Murray MacLehose's office.
At 61 years old, Murray MacLehose could be said to be the longest-serving Governor of Hong Kong in history.
He only had four years left in his term in Hong Kong, which wasn't too long or too short, so it was necessary for Su Cheng to maintain a good relationship with him.
"Mr. Su, please sit here," Murray MacLehose said as he stood up from his desk and walked to the sofa in the reception area upon seeing Su Cheng enter.
"Thank you," Su Cheng said, then sat down on the sofa opposite Murray MacLehose.
"Mr. Su, would you like something to drink?" Murray MacLehose asked.
"Just a cup of tea, please," Su Cheng said with a smile.
"Among the many Chinese people I know, most of them like to drink tea," Murray MacLehose said with a smile.
"After all, this is a culture passed down from our ancestors. The connection between the Chinese people and tea is already engraved in our genes, and it's hard to change," Su Cheng said.
"On this point, we British share a common interest with you Chinese. In Britain, drinking tea is also a very popular culture," Murray MacLehose chuckled.
Contrary to the popular impression that British people prefer coffee, they actually drink tea more often.
Unlike the Chinese habit of drinking tea, the British like to add milk and sugar to their tea.
With just a few words, the relationship between the two became closer.
"Actually, when I first heard Mr. Su's name, I was very curious about you. To achieve such success at such a young age, relying on your own efforts, I believe you are the only one in the world who could do it," Murray MacLehose praised Su Cheng.
"I admire the Governor's character even more. Under your leadership, Hong Kong's economy has taken off and become one of the fastest-growing regions in the world. I think your contribution is the greatest," Su Cheng also began to praise Murray MacLehose's great achievements.
Anyway, boasting doesn't require paying taxes. However, Murray MacLehose was indeed very capable, which was recognized by everyone.
"Mr. Su has managed to build such a fortune at such a young age, so I believe you must have unique insights into economic construction. So, Mr. Su, what do you think are the areas that Hong Kong's current economic situation still needs to change?"
Murray MacLehose smiled at Su Cheng's praise, but didn't say much. Instead, he asked him a question.
"Hong Kong is doing very well in finance, shipping, and trade, but I think Hong Kong still has many shortcomings," Su Cheng said without hesitation.
"Oh? I'd like to hear the details!" Murray MacLehose became curious.
However, because Singapore had a head start, they began to vigorously develop the oil industry in the 1960s, and international oil companies were more inclined to invest more heavily in Singapore, which led to Hong Kong having a very large disadvantage in terms of development resources. Therefore, the oil industry is still developing very generally.

As for the high-tech industry, we naturally know this, but it is impossible to develop high technology like Silicon Valley and Japan, because we have a congenital disadvantage, that is, the shortage of scientific and technological talents.
Whether it is Silicon Valley or Japan, their high-tech companies are basically established in places where universities are very concentrated. In the case of no shortage of talents, they can develop rapidly. Looking at Hong Kong, we do not have this advantage."
Murray MacLehose patiently said a lot to Su Cheng, which shows that these were actually planned by him, but unfortunately, they did not meet expectations.
"Hong Kong's geographical location is not inferior to Singapore's. As one of the international shipping centers, a large number of ships arrive or dock at the pier every day for supplies. Therefore, in this area alone, Hong Kong's oil demand is already very high. As more and more vehicles, airplanes, ships, and other means of transportation around the world use oil as energy, oil will definitely become a very scarce resource. If Hong Kong lags behind in the development of this area, I think it would be a great loss," Su Cheng sighed.
"I heard that Mr. Su bought a refinery on Lamma Island because you are very optimistic about the oil industry?" Murray MacLehose asked with a smile.
"This is just my small test. Actually, I also bought one in Singapore, and the scale is several times larger than the one on Lamma Island. I plan to invest heavily in the oil industry, and I am now considering whether it is better to invest in Singapore or Hong Kong. In terms of emotion and reason, I should invest in Hong Kong, after all, this is the place where I was born and raised, but if I invest in Singapore, the advantages will be greater, because the industrial chain there is more complete, and the policies are also very good," Su Cheng looked very conflicted.
"Mr. Su is from Hong Kong, so it is certainly better to invest in Hong Kong. Moreover, if the investment scale is large enough, we can also reasonably modify our policies. As for the industrial chain, it will naturally not be a problem if it is developed. I wonder how much Mr. Su plans to invest?" Murray MacLehose asked curiously.
According to his speculation, even if Su Cheng invests a lot, it will only be an investment of several hundred million Hong Kong dollars. However, if Su Cheng invests in Hong Kong, he can also become the leading enterprise in Hong Kong's oil industry.
"According to my plan, I plan to invest 10 billion Hong Kong dollars in the oil industry!" Su Cheng said with a smile.
"What? 10 billion Hong Kong dollars?" Murray MacLehose felt that he must have misheard.
