People in Hong Kong create super chaebols

"In that case, I'll have to trouble you, Mr. Governor." Su Cheng's eyes lit up after hearing what Mai Lihao said.

It looks like there's hope.

No matter where the land in Hong Kong is, it is very worthwhile to acquire it now.

No matter whether it is the New Territories, Tai Po, Yuen Long or Shatin, he would be willing even if he was given a piece of land on Lantau Island.

After all, the Hong Kong government now has fewer plots of land, and every time it sells one, it has fewer.

Even the Governor of Hong Kong, Murray MacLehose, did not know what the future of Hong Kong would be. Whether it would continue to be governed by Britain or be returned to the North, everything was still a mystery.

Therefore, the Hong Kong government now auctions a lot of land every year. Why? Naturally, it is for fiscal revenue.

Apart from a portion of these fiscal revenues used by Hong Kong, a large portion was eaten up by Britain in various ways.

There is no way. After all, Hong Kong is now under the control of the United Kingdom. If they want to get the financial revenue here, they have plenty of ways to do it.

"I will talk to the Lands Department and ask them to determine which land can be sold to you as soon as possible. Don't worry, Mr. Su!" Mai Lihao continued with a smile.

In fact, if Su Cheng wants to develop the automobile industry in Hong Kong, Mai Lihao is also very supportive.

After all, the Hong Kong government has no intention of providing special support to the automotive industry, which means that all taxes that should be paid must be paid.

The fact that the automobile companies in Sioux City could not develop had no impact on their Governor's Office.

If it can develop, it will be even better, as it can continuously generate tax revenue for the Hong Kong government.

"Okay, I'll wait for good news from the Lands Bureau." Su Cheng nodded.

Afterwards, the two chatted about many things in Hong Kong, including the development of various industries, etc.

Perhaps because Su Cheng's status is constantly improving, Mai Lihao's attitude towards Su Cheng is becoming more and more polite.

"By the way, Mr. Su, there is something important I want to tell you." Mai Lihao continued.

"Oh? Please speak, Mr. Governor." Su Cheng suddenly became curious about what the matter was, as it was considered important by Mai Lihao.

"Mr. Su, please wait a minute." After saying this, Mai Lihao stood up from the sofa and walked towards the bookcase.

Then he took out something that looked like an envelope from the bookcase.

When I took a closer look, I saw that it was indeed an envelope, and on the envelope was an emblem of the British royal family.

"Mr. Su, this is something the royal family asked me to give you. I just received it today. I originally planned to deliver it to you personally, but it so happens that we are all participating in the trial operation of the revised early system, so I simply invited you to the Governor's Mansion after the event and then gave you this envelope." After Mai Lihao finished speaking, he handed the envelope in his hand to Su Cheng.

Su Cheng took the envelope with both hands and said with a smile: "Can I open it now and take a look?"

"Of course, this is for you."

So Su Cheng opened the envelope right on the spot.

The content of the letter was actually very simple. It simply said that Su Cheng had not yet officially visited the United Kingdom, and Her Majesty the Queen formally invited Su Cheng to visit the United Kingdom.

Indeed, although Su Cheng had been to the UK several times, he had gone there on his own and it was not a real visit.

Today, Su Cheng is an outstanding figure in the world's business community, so it is not surprising that the British royal family invited him to visit the UK. Previously, when Su Cheng was awarded the KBE by the Queen, Prince Charles personally invited Su Cheng to visit the UK on behalf of the British royal family.

However, Su Cheng has never been there.

Now, they invited Su Cheng again and sent the invitation letter in person. It seems that they really hope Su Cheng will visit.

Of course, the invitation letter did not specify when Su Cheng would go to the UK. After all, how could you set a time limit for such a matter? Doing so would show no sincerity at all.

"Mr. Governor, is this the royal family?" After Su Cheng finished reading the invitation letter, he looked up at Mai Lihao.

Given Mai Lihao's identity, he must know something.

After all, MacLehose was the British representative sent to Hong Kong.

"Mr. Su, as far as I know, this is purely an invitation promoted by the British Chamber of Commerce. The purpose is nothing more than for Mr. Su to go there and communicate with the elites of the British Chamber of Commerce. In addition, the royal family also hopes to do some charity activities with Mr. Su. I don't know about other things. If Mr. Su goes there, he will know. I don't know much." Seeing Su Cheng's puzzled expression, Mai Lihao explained briefly.

Su Cheng nodded, and then said: "Mr. Governor, please reply for me. I will find a time to go to the UK this year."

Counting the time, he hasn't been to the UK for more than a year. The last time he went to the UK was in June last year.

At that time, relying on the prophet, Su Cheng made a lot of money in the World Cup, which gave him enough starting funds for business layout. It can be said that this World Cup really made an indelible contribution to him.

Without the funds obtained this time, he would not have been able to take over Hutchison Whampoa so easily, nor would he have so much money to stockpile crude oil, and he would not have achieved today's success at such a speed.

The European market has now become a very important market for Hutchison Whampoa Group and Su Group. The market size is even much larger than that of the Americas, and it creates a huge amount of wealth for Su City every month.

Now, it's time to go there again.

However, Su Cheng definitely has no plans to leave in the near future as the time is too tight.

"Mr. Governor, that's all for today. I won't disturb you any more. We can talk again when we have time." After looking at the time, Su Cheng stood up and said.

The two of them had almost finished talking. As the Governor of Hong Kong, his work schedule was very full, so Su Cheng had no intention of disturbing Mai Lihao any further.

"Originally, I was planning to keep Mr. Su at the Governor's Mansion for lunch. Since Mr. Su has other things to deal with, I will not keep Mr. Su here. The Governor's Mansion welcomes Mr. Su at any time." Mai Lihao stood up, shook hands with Su Cheng and said with a smile.

Su Cheng looked at the time and didn't expect that it was almost half past twelve in the afternoon.

Coincidentally, he also planned to go to Hutchison Plaza and have lunch there.

He had not cared about the situation of Hutchison Plaza for a long time. Since Hutchison Plaza gradually stabilized, Wei Li did not continue to report the situation of Hutchison Plaza to Su Cheng.

On October 10st, Hutchison Plaza will officially end its trial operation and start formal operations.

I don’t know what changes have taken place in Hutchison Plaza now.

It has been in trial operation for some time. Although it is the first urban complex in Hong Kong, I think we have learned a lot of experience during this period and are ready for the official operation.

Today is September 9th, which is Thursday.

Normally, there shouldn't be many people on weekdays.

As for the situation, I found out after I went to Sucheng. (End of this chapter)
