We're building a super chaebol in Hong Kong

The passage of time in August is like a fleeting white horse, and before you know it, the end of the month is quietly approaching.

At this moment, Su Cheng sat in his spacious private office, looking at the summaries submitted by his subordinates.

He was preparing to go to the United States, and before leaving, he wanted to understand the current situation of each company.

During this period, all of Su Cheng's industries were like a carefully cultivated garden, growing vigorously according to the established blueprint, bringing him a continuous accumulation of wealth every day.

Harbour City, a commercial behemoth personally built by Wharf (Holdings) Limited over more than a decade, has rapidly risen to become a leader in Hong Kong's trends.

It has not only become a fashionable landmark that young people flock to, but also made "shopping at Harbour City" a symbol of trend, making countless young people proud.

As time goes by, it is expected that in the next year or two, Harbour City's rents will rise with the increase of its brand influence.

As an important shareholder of Harbour City, Su Cheng will undoubtedly reap rich rewards from it, truly realizing the steady growth of wealth.

At the same time, Hutchison House, Hong Kong's leading large-scale integrated shopping mall, with its world-leading urban complex concept, still maintains a strong attraction and competitiveness even under the halo of Harbour City.

The stable daily flow of 40,000 to 50,000 people, and even more than 80,000 to 90,000 on weekends, not only ensures the prosperity of Hutchison House, but also demonstrates its stable position in Hong Kong's commercial landscape.

For Su Cheng, the continued prosperity of Hutchison House is undoubtedly another solid cornerstone of his business empire.

A major initiative of Tianhe Bodyguard Company recently was to dispatch a team of nearly a thousand elite personnel and logistics teams to Manda Island in Kenya.

This strategic deployment has rapidly promoted the vigorous development of Su Cheng's overseas forces.

The African continent, a land full of challenges and opportunities, with its frequent conflicts and wars, provides a constant stage for real combat training for the Tianhe Mercenary Group, a mercenary group under the Tianhe Bodyguard Company.

On this turbulent continent, one country may fall into civil strife today, and another country may break out in war tomorrow.

Such an environment makes the Tianhe Mercenary Group never lack opportunities for real combat training.

With their excellent tactical skills and excellent combat capabilities, they have gradually made a name for themselves in Africa, attracting the attention of more and more government forces from various countries seeking professional protection and security services.

As the Tianhe Mercenary Group's reputation in Africa grows, more and more countries are beginning to choose to hire them.

This not only brings considerable economic benefits to the Tianhe Bodyguard Company, but also provides valuable combat training opportunities for the mercenary group members, promoting the continuous improvement of the team's overall combat effectiveness.

At the same time, the 500 new recruits who recently joined have gradually shown good adaptability and perseverance to the war-torn environment in Africa after experiencing the initial adaptation and running-in period.

They fought side by side with the old members, jointly guarding the mission of peace and security, laying a solid foundation for the further expansion of Tianhe Bodyguard Company in Africa.

Given time, with its excellent combat capabilities, rich combat experience, and constantly growing team size, the Tianhe Mercenary Group will surely stand at the peak of the global private security field and become a world-renowned private armed force.

Li Yihui, the president of Tianwen Petroleum Company, is waiting for an opportunity that can rival or even surpass Su Cheng's brilliant moment of keenly observing and hoarding oil in 1978.

Su Cheng knew that similar turning points were often hidden in the cycle of history.

With Iraq's bombing of Persia in September, the outbreak of the Iran-Iraq War was like a blockbuster, completely changing the global oil market pattern.

The war led to a complete standstill in oil production in the two countries, which severely damaged world oil production.

A supply gap of up to 5.6 million barrels per day instantly appeared, and this number was like a heavy blow, once again shattering the fragile supply and demand balance of the global crude oil market.

The sharp reduction in supply quickly triggered a chain reaction in the market, and oil prices would soar like a wild horse, and the global energy market would once again fall into a state of tension.

At this turbulent moment, an unprecedented split also occurred within the OPEC organization, further exacerbating the complexity and uncertainty of the market.

Faced with such a historical opportunity, Tianwen Petroleum Company is preparing intensively, striving to seize the opportunity in the upcoming oil storm and realize the company's leap-forward development.

Su Cheng understood that every crisis is accompanied by a turning point, and whether or not he can seize this opportunity will directly affect the company's future destiny and glory.

The latest novel is first published on 69shuba!

In the future, within OPEC, most member states will tend to follow market trends and protect their own interests by raising oil prices.

Saudi Arabia, on the other hand, adopted a completely different strategy, advocating freezing oil prices, and even increasing production significantly on its own to lower oil prices.

This division led to OPEC losing its effective control over the market, and member states raised their official selling prices for their own interests, further exacerbating market chaos and rising oil prices.

Therefore, Su Cheng started planning early.

As early as last year, he showed extraordinary vision and insight, instructing Li Yihui to start planning.

When oil prices gradually fell from their peak to a low of about twenty US dollars, Su Cheng made a decisive decision and once again instructed Li Yihui to hoard a large amount of crude oil.

These crude oil came from a wide range of sources, including not only Brunei's own mining volume, but also a large amount purchased from oil-producing countries such as the Middle East.

Today, under Su Cheng's careful planning, Tianwen Petroleum Company has sufficient crude oil reserves, making full preparations for the upcoming market turmoil.

Su Cheng knew that with the continued escalation of the Iran-Iraq War, oil supplies would be further restricted, and oil prices would inevitably skyrocket again.

And he and his team have already stood firmly on the crest of the wave before this energy storm arrives.
