Chapter 82 Invest 10 billion
After knowing this, Su Cheng paid more attention to his personal safety.
At least for these two days, he needs to be more careful.
For this reason, Su Cheng specially sent extra manpower to the villa. When he went out, he also went out in several cars together.
His Rolls-Royce Phantom VI is a bulletproof armored vehicle, and its safety has also been improved a lot.
He can still trust the top bodyguards from Tianhe Bodyguard Company. With them around, he feels much safer.
At around one o'clock in the afternoon, Su Cheng went out. Although he knew that a killer might be targeting him, he didn't even dare to go out.
Arriving at the Hong Kong Governor's Office, Su Cheng was guided by the staff to MacLehose's office.
The 61-year-old MacLehose can be said to be the longest-serving governor of Hong Kong in history.
Today, he still has the last four years of his tenure in Xiangjiang. This time is neither long nor short, so it is necessary for Su City to maintain a good relationship with him.
"Mr. Su, please sit here." Seeing Su Cheng come in, Mailihao, who was originally sitting at his desk, stood up and walked to the reception sofa aside.
"Thank you." After Su Cheng said this, he sat on the sofa opposite Mailihao.
"Mr. Su, would you like something to drink?" Mailihao asked.
"Bring me a cup of tea." Su Cheng smiled.
"Most of the Chinese people I know like to drink tea." Maliho also said with a smile.
"After all, this is the culture passed down by our ancestors. The relationship between Chinese people and tea has been engraved in their genes, and it is difficult to change." Su Cheng said.
"In this regard, we British and you Chinese have the same hobby. In the UK, drinking tea is also a very popular culture." Mailihao chuckled.
In people's minds, British people prefer drinking coffee. In fact, they are more popular to drink tea.
Different from the Chinese people's tea drinking habits, the British like to add milk and sugar to the tea when drinking tea.
A few words brought the two of them closer.
"Actually, I was very curious about Mr. Su when I first heard his name. At this young age, if you can achieve such results by yourself, even in the whole world, you are probably the only one who can do it." Mailihao
Praise Sioux City.
"I admire Mr. Governor's character even more. Under the governance of Mr. Governor, our economy in Xiangjiang has taken off and become one of the fastest-growing regions in the world. I think you have made the greatest contribution." Su Cheng also started to blow the music.
Hao’s great achievements.
Anyway, you don’t have to pay taxes for bragging, but MacLehose is indeed very capable, and everyone recognizes this.
"Mr. Su can build such a family business at such an age. You must have unique insights in economic construction. So, does Mr. Su think that there is anything that needs to be changed in the current economic situation in Hong Kong?
?"
In response to Su Cheng's compliment, Mailihao smiled and didn't say much. Instead, he asked him about it.
"Xiangjiang is doing very well in finance, shipping, and trade now, but I think Xiangjiang still has a lot of shortcomings." Su Cheng said without thinking.
"Oh? I'd like to hear the details!" Mailihao became curious.
He feels that under his management, Xiangjiang has done very well. Not to mention the troika of finance, shipping, and trade, even in terms of industrial development, Xiangjiang has become a world-famous industrialized city. Many manufacturing products are sold in the market.
To the whole world.
"Mr. Governor, you should also know Singapore very well. Taking advantage of its superior location, they began to vigorously develop the oil industry in the 1960s. Today, Singapore has become the third largest oil industry in the world after the beautiful countries and the Netherlands.
A large oil refining center, but looking at our Xiangjiang, the oil industry is not outstanding.
In addition, the future world is a world of science and technology. Although the industry in Xiangjiang is relatively developed, it is actually mainly based on the textile industry, watch industry, toys, small household appliances, etc. In terms of high technology, our Xiangjiang is very backward. I went
After passing through Silicon Valley, I deeply realized that technology is the mainstream of the future."
Su City directly addressed two of Xiangjiang's shortcomings.
"In fact, we have seen the prospects of the oil industry and attached great importance to it. During the Second World War, Xiangjiang's oil industry had developed to a certain extent. Military operations at that time required a large amount of
The supply of oil accelerated the development of Xiangjiang's oil industry. However, during the Japanese invasion, we evacuated for a period of time, and Xiangjiang's oil industry gradually declined.
After I took office, I began to implement a series of economic reform measures, including attracting foreign capital, encouraging investment, expanding exports, etc. These policies have provided certain development opportunities for Xiangjiang's oil industry.
During this period, some international oil companies began to invest and build petrochemical plants and oil depots in Hong Kong, and some local companies also began to get involved in the oil industry.
However, because Singapore was the first to arrive, they began to vigorously develop the oil industry in the 1960s. International oil companies are more inclined to invest more heavily in Singapore. This has resulted in Hong Kong having a very large amount of development resources.
disadvantages, so the petroleum industry is still developing in a mediocre way.
As for the high-tech industry, we naturally know this, but it is impossible to develop high-tech like Silicon Valley and Japan because we have an inherent disadvantage, which 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. Without a shortage of talents, they have been able to develop rapidly. In contrast, we in Xiangjiang do not have this advantage.
."
Mai Lihao patiently told Su Cheng a lot. It can be seen that these were actually planned by him, but unfortunately they failed to meet expectations.
"The geographical location of Xiangjiang is not inferior to that of Singapore. As one of the international shipping centers, Xiangjiang has a large number of large ships arriving or docking at the dock for supply every day, so the oil demand in Xiangjiang alone is already very high.
As more and more vehicles, including cars, airplanes, and ships, use petroleum as energy around the world, petroleum will become a very scarce resource. If Xiangjiang lags behind in this development, I think it will be a big loss." Su Cheng lamented.
Tao.
"I heard that Mr. Su bought an oil refinery on Lamma Island because Mr. Su is very optimistic about the oil industry?" Mailihao asked with a smile.
"This is just my small test. In fact, I also bought a house in Singapore, and the scale is several times that of the one on Lamma Island. I plan to invest heavily in the oil industry. Now
I am considering whether it is better to stay in Singapore or Hong Kong.
Reason, I should invest in Xiangjiang, 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." Sioux City
Acting very confused.
"Mr. Su is from Xiangjiang. Of course, it is better to invest in Xiangjiang. And if the investment scale is large enough, our policies can also be modified reasonably. As for the industrial chain, it will not be a problem once it is developed. I don't know if Mr. Su has any
How much do you plan to invest?" MacLehose asked curiously.
According to his guess, even if Su City invests heavily, it will only be an investment of hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars. However, if Su City invests in Hong Kong, it can become a leading company in the oil industry in Hong Kong.
"According to my plan, I plan to invest HK$10 billion in the oil industry!" Su Cheng said with a smile.
