We're building a super chaebol in Hong Kong

“If that’s the case, then I will personally contact Mr. Su. We have a good foundation for cooperation with Mr. Su, and I believe this proposal will receive his positive response, and the entire decision-making process should proceed quite smoothly,” Li Jiacheng decisively made the final decision.

“Meeting adjourned!” Li Jiacheng announced the end of the meeting.

Within the Wharf Group, Su Cheng successfully obtained the position of Vice Chairman of the Board. This proposal was unsurprisingly approved by all 26 members at the board meeting.

For the Wharf Group, Su Cheng's joining was undoubtedly seen as a positive signal, rather than a burden.

At the meeting, Su Cheng frankly stated that, given the large number of companies under his name, it would be difficult for him to spare too much attention to manage the daily affairs of the Wharf Group. Therefore, he promised not to directly interfere with the company's operations and management, and he might not be able to attend daily board meetings frequently due to his busy schedule.

However, he also solemnly promised to fully support Chairman of the Board John Maden's decisions, which undoubtedly gave John Maden a reassurance.

As a result, John Maden felt extremely gratified. He not only successfully introduced Su Cheng, a powerful second-largest shareholder, but also ensured that the other party would not interfere with the company's operations, which was exactly the best situation he had hoped for.

In the end, the board meeting concluded in a harmonious and joyful atmosphere, and all participants were full of expectations for the future.

“Mr. John, I still have some urgent matters to deal with, so I have to leave first. I believe that under your wise leadership, the Wharf Group will surely prosper, and I, naturally, will be able to sit back and enjoy the benefits, and safely collect my dividends. I have always had a high degree of trust in your talent and decisiveness,”

Su Cheng said to John Maden with a smile as he was about to leave the Wharf Group Building.

“Mr. Su, your trust is my greatest motivation. Please rest assured that I am more eager for the prosperity of the Wharf Group than anyone else, because my interests are closely linked to the fate of the Group. The higher the Group's profits, the higher my income will naturally be,”

John Maden patted his chest, revealing a firm determination in his eyes.

“Okay, then I won’t disturb you any further, Mr. John, please stay here.” Su Cheng nodded, then waved goodbye to John Maden.

Accompanied by his bodyguards, after taking the elevator down to the first basement level, Su Cheng walked into the underground parking lot of the Wharf Group Building.

He went straight to his Jaguar armored private car, and after getting into the car, he said to Lao Liu, who was already waiting in the driver's seat: “Lao Liu, let’s go back to Barker Road.”

“Yes, Boss!” Lao Liu responded and started the engine. The car then smoothly drove out of the parking lot and headed towards Su Cheng's residence on Barker Road.

Sitting in the Jaguar armored sedan, Su Cheng stared out the window at the increasingly prosperous street scene of Xiangjiang. However, his face appeared particularly calm, as if all the prosperity did not match the waves in his heart.

Purchasing shares in the Wharf Group was, for him, just a part of his carefully planned strategy. He understood that the real harvest required time and patience to brew.

Just as he was immersed in his thoughts, a crisp mobile phone ringtone broke the silence in the car.

“Hello, this is Su Cheng.” He pressed the answer button calmly, his voice revealing a hint of imperceptible composure.

“Mr. Su, hello, this is Li Jiacheng. I apologize for disturbing you. Is this a convenient time for you? I have something I would like to discuss with you in person.” On the other end of the phone, Li Jiacheng's voice carried a hint of sincerity and anticipation.

Su Cheng smiled slightly, already having a plan in mind. “Of course I have time, Mr. Li. How about this, if you don’t mind, you can come to my personal office in the Su’s Group Building, and we can talk in detail,” he said in a gentle tone.

After hanging up the phone, Su Cheng noticed that the car had not yet left Central, and the journey to the Su’s Group Building was not far.

Lao Liu, sitting in the passenger seat, seemed to have already understood his boss's intentions. Without needing to say much, he skillfully adjusted the direction and steadily turned the car around, heading towards the Su’s Group Building.

Silence returned to the car once again.

“Okay, Mr. Su, I expect to arrive within twenty minutes,” Li Jiacheng replied clearly on the other end of the phone, his tone revealing a sense of efficiency and urgency.

After hanging up the phone, Su Cheng was still surprised that Li Jiacheng had called. What was Li Jiacheng looking for him for?

In his previous life's memory, Li Jiacheng had not shown a strong interest in the Wharf Group, which led Su Cheng not to arrange for Wu Ge to deeply understand Li Jiacheng's situation, and even less anticipated that Li Jiacheng had been carefully planning for the Wharf Group for two years.

Now, Su Cheng had only purchased the shares of the Wharf Group from Jardine Matheson, and inadvertently made Li Jiacheng's team's two years of effort seem to have vanished, which was undoubtedly an unexpected turn of events.

Therefore, facing Li Jiacheng's upcoming meeting, Su Cheng's heart was full of doubts and confusion.

He secretly pondered in his heart, what was Li Jiacheng's true purpose for this trip—was it to seek some specific business cooperation, or was there a deeper intention?

However, on second thought, with his current status and position in the business world, Su Cheng believed that there was no need to worry too much.

He believed that Li Jiacheng, as an equally shrewd businessman, should not easily do things that would harm the interests of both parties.

The most likely situation, Su Cheng speculated, was that Li Jiacheng might want to have in-depth discussions and cooperation with him on certain business issues.

As for the specific content of the cooperation, it could only be revealed when the two sides met.

With this thought in mind, Su Cheng entered the Su’s Group Building and went straight back to his reception room.

The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ say ⊥ in ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ book ⊥ ⊥ bar ⊥ ⊥ first ⊥ hair!

Seeing this, Su Cheng immediately stood up and greeted him with a smile: “Mr. Li, it’s been a long time. You look more radiant than ever.”

Hearing this, Li Jiacheng also showed a humble smile on his face: “Not at all, Mr. Su, you flatter me. I am already in my fifties, almost an old man. On the other hand, Mr. Su, you have achieved extraordinary things at a young age, which is really enviable!”

“Mr. Li, please sit down.” Su Cheng said, pointing to the sofa next to him, signaling Li Jiacheng to take a seat.

After the two sat down, a harmonious yet formal atmosphere immediately filled the reception room.

“Mr. Li, would you like something to drink?” Su Cheng smiled, his tone revealing a bit of cordiality and consideration.

Li Jiacheng smiled gently and replied: “A cup of tea will be fine, thank you for your hospitality, Mr. Su.”

Before he finished speaking, Su Cheng gently raised his hand to signal, and the assistant who followed up immediately understood and quickly and gracefully exited the reception room.

After a while, the assistant returned with a cup of hot, fragrant tea and gently placed it on the coffee table in front of Li Jiacheng, the movements were skillful and courteous. (End of this chapter)
