"Everyone, please calm down." Seeing that the situation was almost out of control, Mailihao stopped him.

His words were very effective, and all of a sudden, the scene returned to silence.

Su Cheng knew that it was his turn to speak.

"Mr. Governor is right. I am planning to invest heavily in the development of the oil industry in Hong Kong. Here today, there are actually two things:

The first is the signing of an investment contract with the Xiangjiang government; the second is the groundbreaking ceremony for the oil base.

Thank you very much for coming all the way to witness this moment.

The petroleum industry is a very promising industry. Here, I also call on all Hong Kong business giants to enter this industry and develop together to make Hong Kong's petroleum industry more competitive internationally."

Sioux City's long story short.

It is impossible to monopolize the oil industry, so Su Cheng has never thought that he can develop the oil industry in Xiangjiang by himself. If other big players in Xiangjiang enter the industry, he will very much welcome it.

The more complete the industrial chain, the lower the cost will be.

Xiangjiang is just a small market, and the world is the big market.

Like Singapore, others can become the third largest crude oil refining base in the world. Do they supply all their oil domestically? Of course not!

Most of them are mainly exported and can be used domestically in Singapore, and the proportion is not much at all.

If Xiangjiang can develop its oil industry, there is no need to struggle with internal competition. How much can Xiangjiang consume if the market is so small?

To compete with oil companies from the Netherlands, Singapore and other places in the global market, we need to look further ahead.

"Mr. Su, can I ask you a question?" At this time, a reporter stood up and said loudly.

At this time, other reporters also raised their hands to ask questions.

"Due to time constraints, I will only answer three questions here. The first reporter to raise his hand, you can ask first." Su Cheng said with a smile.

"Mr. Governor said you want to invest tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars. As far as I know, you are currently in the process of fully acquiring the Hutchison Whampoa Group. You should have spent a lot of money. Can you still invest such a huge amount of money?

"?" the reporter asked.

"Whether I have the strength to invest this money, in fact, there is no need to ask this question, because the Hong Kong Governor's Office has verified my financial status, otherwise they would not be able to hold this signing ceremony with me. Otherwise, wouldn't it be

Has it become a farce?" Su Cheng laughed.

"Mr. Su, you have invested so much in this industry, aren't you afraid that it will be wasted?" Another reporter asked.

“It is normal for investments to make profits and losses, but I am very confident about the oil industry. Whether it is ships, cars, airplanes or even asphalt, oil will be used. With the advent of the technological era, all future usage will only increase.

It is getting higher and higher. Under such circumstances, I am not afraid of losing money when entering this industry." Su Cheng continued to answer.

"The feat of buying Hutchison Whampoa and preparing to invest tens of billions in the oil industry is truly shocking. Does Mr. Su think he has become the richest man in Hong Kong?" another reporter immediately asked.

Tao.

"There are many business leaders present. I am just a junior. I believe there are many people who are richer than me. I have to work harder. Okay, this is the end of the question and answer session. What we are going to do next is my representative.

Tianwen Oil Company signed an investment contract with the Xiangjiang government." Su Cheng said with a smile.

Whether you are the richest man or not, you cannot tell from your own mouth.

There were other reporters who wanted to ask questions, but unfortunately Sioux City did not continue to give them the opportunity.

The reporters were invited by the Hong Kong Governor's Office. If they have any questions, let them ask the Hong Kong Governor's Office themselves. He doesn't want to pay attention to these nonsense.

Next, Sioux City represented Tianwen Petroleum Company and Mai Lihao represented the Xiangjiang government, and the two signed an investment contract with each other.

In the contract, every provision is clearly written.

For example, Wentian Petroleum Company needs to develop into a billion-dollar oil company within three years, otherwise the tax-free treaty will be invalid, and all previous benefits will have to be paid back.

Basically, the treaties contained therein are those that Sioux City and Governor Mailiho had previously negotiated.

Regarding the development of a petroleum company with a scale of over RMB 1 billion within three years, Su Cheng expressed that there is no pressure at all.

Witnessed by many media reporters and business leaders, the two parties signed and exchanged contracts, and finally held hands together.

After the signing process is over, the next step is the groundbreaking ceremony.

Su Cheng led several important subordinates, and Mailihao led several important senior executives, each with a shovel, to complete the entire groundbreaking ceremony under the attention of everyone.

After the ceremony, the media were reluctant to leave for a long time, and they wanted to stay to get more information.

After all, if this news spreads, it is destined to be a sensational news in Hong Kong.

The tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars invested in this era are at least compared to the hundreds of billions invested in future generations.

However, at this time, Su Cheng's car had already left Tuen Mun, following the convoy of the Government House.

The location of the wharf has been determined. Sioux City has discussed with the Hong Kong Governor's Office over the phone to build a 50,000-ton wharf as quickly as possible, and is preparing to start construction immediately.

Sioux City was responsible for the labor and material costs, so Mailihao was naturally very active in helping him contact the best terminal construction engineering team.

However, I still owe something to Su City. After all, I promised to undertake the construction of the dock.

Therefore, Mailihao also issued an order to ask the municipal departments under the government to build asphalt roads in the surrounding area as quickly as possible, and prepare to build a police station here to ensure the safety of the oil base.

The construction of warehouse oil tanks will be constructed simultaneously with the construction of the terminal.

Because after the location of the terminal was determined, the construction locations of the 500 oil storage tanks were quickly arranged. This task will be undertaken by Hutchison Real Estate’s engineering team.

Although the investment is not too large to build 500 ultra-large oil storage tanks within two months, the project is still relatively tight, so in terms of manpower, we will continue to recruit from outside.

There is not much in Hong Kong in this era, except for cheap labor and many stowaways. It is good to have a stable job.

Therefore, recruiting low-level workers is really simple.

As for the media, after discovering that they could not obtain more information from Su City, major mainstream media began to use their personal connections to obtain more inside information from Xiangjiang government officials.

In the evening, through the evening newspaper or TV news or radio news, many people in Xiangjiang discovered another breaking news.

The news that Sioux City took over Hutchison Whampoa as Taipan and privatized Hutchison Whampoa was not long ago, and it has not calmed down yet. Unexpectedly, he actually made a big news again.

It’s really a wave of ups and downs.

At this moment, almost everyone who knew the news was shocked by Su Cheng's creation.

What is the concept of 10 billion? In this era when 100,000 can buy a house and 200,000 can buy a Rolls-Royce, 10 billion is simply an unimaginable number.

The next morning, with eye-catching headlines in major newspapers and periodicals, the news had spread throughout Xiangjiang, Haojiang, Wanwan, Singapore and other places.

The United Kingdom, the United States, Japan, South Korea and other places also followed the reports of mainstream news media. Although most people did not pay much attention to it, they also made everyone aware of such a thing. Sioux City's international reputation also increased.

There has been a certain improvement.
