People in Hong Kong create super chaebols

Chapter 83 Unexpected harvest, news from the oil field!

"Mr. Governor, you heard me right. I am indeed prepared to spend huge sums of money to invest in the oil industry, instead of just making small investments. I have prepared billions of Hong Kong dollars for the initial investment because I am very optimistic about the future prospects of this industry. If I don't If we plan ahead, it will be difficult to compete with others in the future, but at present I am still tentatively entering this industry." Su Cheng said with a smile.

Singapore and Xiangjiang, he must put his main investment point in Xiangjiang, after all, this is his base camp.

Of course, investment in the oil industry is long-term. In the near future, he plans to be a second-hand crude oil dealer and wait until he makes a profit.

In the final analysis, talking to Mailihao about this is to strive for more preferential policies, which will naturally be better for his development.

"As far as I know, Mr. Su has already spent a lot of money to buy Hutchison Whampoa. How can you still come up with so much money?" Mailihao didn't believe it.

"I have saved 5 million pounds in the UK. This money can be used at any time." Su Cheng was prepared and directly showed the data of several bankbooks to Mai Lihao.

At this time, Mailihao truly believed that Su Cheng was not lying.

5 million pounds. If converted into Hong Kong dollars, it would be 45 billion Hong Kong dollars.

With this amount of money, you can buy one more Hutchison Whampoa.

"I thought I already knew Mr. Su's details very well, but I didn't expect that Mr. Su surprised me again." Mailihao did not ask more about Su Cheng's source of funds. After all, it was a secret.

"So, my determination to invest in the oil industry is very firm, but I am still considering where to build the main oil base." Su Cheng said with a smile.

What officials want is political performance, and MacLehose is no exception.

When he came to take office in Xiangjiang, his goal was to build Xiangjiang into a world-class international city. Now, after these years of hard work, the goal is getting closer, and Xiangjiang's reputation is getting bigger and bigger.

But this is not enough!
He once talked with important officials of the British cabinet. He only has four years left in his term in Hong Kong at most, so in the short time left, he hopes that Hong Kong can become more prosperous.

In this way, when he returns to the UK, he can be reused.

Mailihao looked at the extremely young super rich man in front of him and couldn't help thinking about countermeasures.

Obviously, if he is not given some preferential policies, he will not necessarily put his main oil base in Xiangjiang. After all, businessmen focus on profit.

Not to mention investing 100 billion, even if Sioux City only invests these billions of Hong Kong dollars in Xiangjiang, MacLehose is confident that although the scale of the oil industry in Xiangjiang is still small at present, it will be driven by these billions. There is definitely a great chance to surpass Singapore and become the world's top three oil refining center.

Singapore does not produce oil, but it has become the world's third oil refining center. It is because of Singapore's unique location and the strong support of the government that it has achieved Singapore's oil status today.

As for Xiangjiang, its location is not bad, but its development is a little late. If it wants to catch up with Singapore, it must develop vigorously.

The Xiangjiang government has now spent a lot of energy on the oil industry in order to develop the oil industry. Although it has indeed recruited some large oil companies, such as Royal Dutch Shell, Exxon, BP, Taxi Gu Company, Phillips Petroleum Company, Total Fina Elf Company, etc., but they only invest casually and build some warehouses in Xiangjiang. This is not of great help to Xiangjiang's oil industry.

Now, the opportunity was placed in front of Mailihao, and he really didn't want to miss it.

"If Mr. Su invests heavily in the oil industry in Hong Kong, on behalf of the Governor-General of Hong Kong, I will provide the maximum preferential policies to Mr. Su's oil company, such as a tax exemption policy for the company within three years, and we will also provide strong cooperation in supporting facilities. As long as Mr. Su has selected the site, our government will solve the surrounding supporting facilities as quickly as possible!" Mailihao said directly.After Su Cheng heard this, he did not speak out immediately, but thought about what conditions he wanted to negotiate.

The preferential policies mentioned by Mailihao are indeed good, but they are not enough for Sioux City.

Seeing that Su Cheng didn't say anything, Mailihao's heart moved and he remembered another thing.

"By the way, Mr. Su, there is another thing that I don't know if you are interested in. I learned a piece of news from the Governor of Brunei, His Excellency Zaire Abidin. Brunei recently discovered a very high oil storage capacity. Oil field, but due to lack of funds, the Brunei government hopes to find a partner to jointly develop this oil field. If Mr. Su is willing to set up the oil base in Xiangjiang, I am willing to matchmaking for Mr. Su." Mai Lihao continued.

oilfield?

This is a windfall.

He had heard of Brunei in his previous life. It was a place rich in oil and natural gas resources. It seemed that it was not yet completely independent and was still a British colony, but it would become completely independent in 1984 in a few years.

In fact, the Governor of Brunei sent by the British at this time was only a temporary post without any power. Through a series of operations, the Sultan of Brunei re-signed a contract with the British in 1971, stipulating that in addition to foreign affairs and some defense affairs, cultural affairs Rai resumed the exercise of all other internal autonomy.

"I wonder what the chances of successful cooperation with the Brunei government are through matchmaking?" Su Cheng had to ask this question.

What if Mai Lihao just painted a pie for him?
"Almost 100%, because as far as I know, Brunei's economic lifeline was almost in the hands of the United Kingdom. In recent years, they have regained a lot of autonomy through negotiations, but in terms of economy, they are still relatively backward. Therefore, it would be almost impossible for them to develop a large oil field alone, and they certainly do not want the UK to intervene, so a businessman is the best partner." Mailihao said with certainty.

"Mr. Governor, I am currently short of investment direction for a crude oil base. If you can help me win this cooperation contract, I am willing to place the main crude oil refining base in Xiangjiang. However, in addition, I hope that the tax holiday can be extended to 5 years. , because the early stage is too large, it will take a long time to develop to achieve profitability." Su Cheng said directly.

Importing crude oil is really too expensive, and if there are oil fields and a refining base is developed in the future, there will be no need to go to West Asia to bring oil back.

To be honest, the oil field was originally unexpected news. If we can win it, it would be the best. If we can't win it, we can't force it. We can just see where there is investment in the future and win it.

"Okay, since Mr. Su said so, let me contact you about the Brunei oil field. I will use my connections to pave the way for you in the shortest possible time. I can also agree to the five-year tax holiday for you!" In order to get the When it came to investing in Sioux City, Mailihao decided to fight for it.

An investment of billions or even tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars. If it can be realized, this will definitely be the largest investment in Hong Kong's history.

A major project like the Hung Hom Cross-Harbour Tunnel only cost HK$3.2 million.

Therefore, it is very normal for this investment to impress MacLehose.

In fact, if the oil field is in Brunei, it is most appropriate for the main oil base to be in Singapore because the two places are very close.

However, the development of the oil industry in Singapore has been very complete. As an outsider, Sioux City, even if there are discounts there, it cannot compete with the discounts given by the Xiangjiang government. In addition, this area belongs to his territory, so it is placed here. will be better.

By developing the industry, Xiangjiang's economy will become more prosperous, and the benefits will only be greater for him.

After all, most of his properties are now in Xiangjiang, and the prosperity of Xiangjiang is what he wants to see.
