We're building a super chaebol in Hong Kong

When Su Cheng arrived at Hutchison Whampoa Plaza, he found that nearly half of the parking spaces in the entire underground parking lot were occupied by vehicles of various kinds.

During the initial construction of Hutchison Whampoa Plaza, Su Cheng had discussed the issue of parking spaces with Simon Topping.

The cost of purchasing a car in Hong Kong has always been relatively high, including vehicle first registration tax and fuel costs; secondly, although Hong Kong's road planning is good, it is prone to traffic jams during peak hours, so more people choose to travel by public transportation; in addition, the shortage of parking spaces is also one of the reasons for the low car ownership in Hong Kong.

The shortage of parking spaces and high parking fees also make citizens more inclined to use public transportation.

Even in the 2020s, the total number of cars in Hong Kong is only more than 700,000, which is far less than that of first-tier cities in the mainland.

And now, at the end of the 1970s, it is less than half of what it will be in later generations.

Nevertheless, more parking spaces must be built and cannot be saved.

Because, the vast majority of families who own private cars are families with very good financial conditions. Such families often represent the high-income class, and their consumption power will be higher.

If there are few parking spaces, it means rejecting them from a thousand miles away.

After all, even if the Kowloon Tong subway is open, it does not mean that everyone is willing to take the subway to come here.

Rich people definitely prefer to travel by private car.

Therefore, no matter what, there must be more parking spaces in Hutchison Whampoa Plaza.

To this end, after the designer's design, the entire Hutchison Whampoa Plaza has nearly 1,500 parking spaces.

In addition to the underground parking spaces, the entire fifth floor of the Hutchison Whampoa complex mall is a parking lot.

In addition, there are also some parking spaces in the open air.

These parking spaces should definitely be able to meet the demand. If they can be filled, it will be good news for Hutchison Whampoa Plaza, because they will be considered successful.

After all, with 1,500 parking spaces, each car will basically have three or four people coming to Hutchison Whampoa Plaza, and there will be more than 5,000 guests here.

And guests who drive private cars will only account for a part of the entire passenger flow.

In addition to guests who drive their own private cars, more people still take public transportation and walk over from nearby.

At that time, the amount of traffic in Hutchison Whampoa Plaza can be imagined.

The underground parking lot can park nearly half of the cars, which means that there are already nearly 300 cars here.

This represents a passenger flow of thousands of people.

Even if there are no cars parked in the above-ground parking spaces and the fifth-floor parking lot, relying on this passenger flow of thousands of people is already a very good performance, not to mention the guests who come by bus and on foot.

It has only just started its trial operation, and it is still morning, but it can have such a large flow of people, which is already very good.

It can be seen that although Hutchison Whampoa Plaza is nearly in trial operation, its promotion in Hong Kong has received a good response.

Of course, this is also largely due to the fact that today is the weekend. If it is a normal working day, there may not be so many people, at least not so many people in the morning.

This is one of the benefits of Su Cheng controlling Jia Yi TV Station, the "Oriental Daily", "Xia Yi Literary Newspaper", and "Xia Yi News". He can continuously promote his new products at the lowest cost without relying on high prices to bid.

Advertising is something that is better to rely on yourself than to ask for help from others.

Su Cheng was very low-key today. He was dressed very ordinary, wearing a beret and a pair of wide sunglasses. Under normal circumstances, if you don't look carefully, you won't recognize who he is.

Because of this, Su Cheng confidently pressed the elevator to the next floor, followed by two bodyguards who were also dressed in ordinary clothes.

In his own territory, there is no need to bring too many bodyguards. The more you bring, the more conspicuous you become.

This is one of the disadvantages of being a celebrity. Once you are recognized by others, it is easy to be surrounded.

Su Cheng doesn't like the feeling of being surrounded by too many people.

Su Cheng took two bodyguards and strolled around on the first floor. The atmosphere felt pretty good.

As he walked, Su Cheng suddenly discovered an incredible situation.

There was actually a shop opened by Cherie Chung's parents here.

The decoration style of the store was almost exactly the same as their store in Mong Kok. The large photo of Cherie Chung was very obvious in this clothing area.

Moreover, Su Cheng also saw Cherie Chung in the store. At this time, she was already surrounded by enthusiastic fans, and the store was crowded with star-chasing people.

Although Cherie Chung announced her retirement from acting nearly a month ago, it is obvious that her fame is still very high in Hong Kong.

Now, although Cherie Chung is already pregnant, she is only two months pregnant, so her belly is not visible at all at this time. Even if she appears in public, no one can see that she is pregnant now.

Seeing Cherie Chung, Su Cheng instantly understood why she wanted him to come to Hutchison Whampoa Plaza today, and also left home at nine o'clock.

It seems that her parents had already rented a shop here when Hutchison Whampoa Plaza was attracting merchants, and the location was also very good, with an area of more than 200 square meters.

It's just that Su Cheng had never heard Cherie Chung mention this matter before.

It is estimated that she is unwilling to use Su Cheng's identity to ask for benefits for her parents at Hutchison Whampoa Plaza.

Since Cherie Chung became famous, her parents' business in Mong Kok has been many times better than before. In addition, the shop was bought by Cherie Chung and does not require rent, so they earn a lot of money every month. It is not surprising that they can rent a good location of more than 200 square meters on the first floor of Hutchison Whampoa Plaza.

It is good that Cherie's father and mother can develop, at least they will not be like many other female stars, once their daughters become popular, their parents become vampires, specializing in sucking their daughters' blood.

With the current development speed of Cherie's father and mother, in a few years, they may directly establish a clothing brand company. By then, they will be considered businessmen with considerable strength, and naturally they will not need to rely on sucking Cherie Chung's blood to fatten themselves.

Su Cheng didn't go in, but just watched from a distance outside, then left, took the elevator, and continued to browse the second, third, and fourth floors.

From the initial look, although Hutchison Whampoa Plaza is only in its first day of trial operation, the effect is still very good. (End of this chapter)
