We're building a super chaebol in Hong Kong

#303 - If others can do it, I can do it too!

In less than five minutes, Su Cheng arrived at the Hutchison Whampoa headquarters building from the Sun's Group headquarters.

"Good afternoon, Boss!"

"Hello, Boss!"

As soon as he entered the building, the employees greeted Su Cheng proactively.

Especially the foreign employees, who even used Hong Kong-style Chinese to greet Su Cheng, although their pronunciation always sounded strange.

Nowadays, the employees of Hutchison Whampoa all know who the boss of the company is, who is the real owner of the group!

After all, Hutchison Whampoa has been completely privatized, and the former Big Four Hongs and listed companies no longer exist.

The shareholders' meeting has also been cancelled, because only Su Cheng, the shareholder, is left.

In other words, this famous Big Four Hongs in Hong Kong has completely become a private enterprise.

Of course, Su Cheng also understood them. It was a sign of great respect that they could greet him in Hong Kong-style Chinese.

Regardless of whether the company's employees were Chinese or foreigners, as far as Su Cheng was concerned, as long as they contributed to the company, they would be treated equally.

"Is Mr. Wei Li in the company?" Su Cheng walked to the front desk on the first floor and asked the receptionist.

"Boss, Mr. Wei Li came to the company very early this morning and hasn't left since. He should be in the office now. Let me call him to check for you." The receptionist stood up immediately and replied when she saw Su Cheng.

"Okay, please call and check." Su Cheng nodded.

Hutchison Whampoa is such a large group. What if Wei Li was not in the office but had run to another floor? Wouldn't Su Cheng have made a wasted trip?

Therefore, it was better to have her check.

The receptionist then dialed Wei Li's office phone.

The call was hung up in less than half a minute.

However, Su Cheng also knew that Wei Li was in the office now, because the receptionist had just spoken to him on the phone.

If the call had gone unanswered, it would have meant that Wei Li was not in the office.

"Boss, long time no see." Wei Li said, extending his hand.

"Yes, it has been a while. How are you feeling?" Su Cheng smiled and shook hands with Wei Li.

The two walked into the office while talking, and Wei Li closed the CEO's office door behind him.

"I feel very good. Hutchison Whampoa's strength is growing stronger day by day. The speed of progress is something I never dared to imagine before." After sitting down, Wei Li replied with emotion.

Although Wei Li was capable, if he developed step by step, it would have been very good if Hutchison Whampoa's profits could increase by 20% each year.

After all, for a large company the size of Hutchison Whampoa, it was normal for it to suffer losses.

However, with Su Cheng's various ideas and especially with the help of the Oracle brand experience store, the product sales of Hutchison Whampoa and Sun's Group's various subsidiaries have generally been rising in a straight line. Basically, anything that can be sold in the Oracle brand experience store has been taken there.

"The group's progress is mostly due to Mr. Wei Li's contributions!" Su Cheng said with a smile.

An enterprise the size of Hutchison Whampoa could not be managed by just anyone.

If it was not managed well, it would suffer serious losses in minutes.

"I don't deserve the praise. Without the boss, I would at most be able to keep Hutchison Whampoa on a steady path of progress. If the group were still a listed company, its market value would definitely reach the scale of tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars!" Wei Li said.

When Hutchison Whampoa's market value was at its peak, it reached six or seven billion Hong Kong dollars, and later it fell to only two or three billion Hong Kong dollars.

Now, in just over half a year, Hutchison Whampoa has not only recovered to its peak, but has also made great progress.

All of this is the result of Su Cheng, the young boss, taking over.

In the past, even HSBC could not do it, but Su Cheng did it.

This is not luck, but real ability!

Wei Li now admired Su Cheng, the boss, to the point of prostration, and had completely lost the idea of rebelling.

Working for such a boss, the height he would reach in the future would only get higher and higher.

Wei Li sometimes even imagined the glory of Hutchison Whampoa's market value surpassing HSBC and becoming the largest enterprise in Hong Kong in the future.

"Market value is completely useless to me. I don't need funds to finance the group. Although Hutchison Whampoa is no longer a listed company, it is only a matter of time before it becomes a world-class enterprise, so you have to work hard. Someday in the future, we can stand at the top and celebrate." Su Cheng laughed heartily.

In a capitalist society, in order to make the company bigger, many company leaders ultimately choose to list the company in order to obtain more funds to expand the company's scale.

However, Su Cheng did not need these. He did not feel that he needed financing to develop his enterprise.

Like the world in Su Cheng's previous life, Huawei, a well-known Chinese brand, was not listed. Huawei is a private enterprise 100% owned by its employees, and no government departments or institutions hold Huawei's shares.

Internationally, the famous Koch Industries is also a private enterprise.

Koch Industries has a very wide range of business areas, involving petroleum, electricity, clothing, electronics industry, paper and many other fields. In 2021, Koch Industries' revenue was 125 billion US dollars, equivalent to about 890 billion RMB!

Nearly 900 billion RMB in operating income, how terrifying is this!

Such a world giant enterprise of this scale is actually a private enterprise that has not been listed. It is completely controlled by the Koch family.

Su Cheng felt that since the Koch family could do it, with the help of the intelligent AI Xiao Ai, there was no reason why he couldn't do it!

"I also look forward to that day!" Wei Li said yearningly.

"How is the progress of the mobile phone matter?" Su Cheng continued to ask.

"The laboratory specially built by Hutchison Telecom for mobile phones has been completed with the help of Mr. Yang Chaoye. Many of the most advanced equipment have been transported from the United States. In terms of technical personnel, we have currently built a research and development team. With the help of Mr. Yang Chaoye, we have recruited two technical experts in the field of mobile telecommunications from Motorola, as well as many elite engineers, and we are still continuing to recruit and expand the team!

In addition, our patents have also been successively registered in the world's major countries in the past two days. In terms of patents, there are basically no worries!"

Hearing Su Cheng's question, Wei Li explained in detail.

Nowadays, Hutchison Telecom's business is definitely the most important business of Hutchison Whampoa.

Seeing the success of Oracle Computer, Wei Li couldn't wait for Hutchison Telecom's mobile phones to be developed as soon as possible and then commercialized.

"Well, try to speed up the pace. I hope that mobile phones can be used in Hong Kong by the beginning of next year!" Su Cheng nodded and said.

Without mobile phones, it is really too troublesome. As a businessman, he understands the importance of mobile phones.
