Chapter 379: Meeting with Ma Shiming

With Ma Shiming's talent, Su Cheng deserves to invite him personally.

Just like Liu Bei during the Three Kingdoms period, he visited the thatched cottage three times just to hire Zhuge Liang as his military advisor.

At nine o'clock in the evening, Su Cheng called Ma Shiming.

Because the phone number Brother Wu gave was the phone number at Ma Shiming's home.

Ma Shiming would most likely not be at home tomorrow, so it was useless to call him. It was the right time to call him.

Sure enough, within a few seconds of the call, the call was answered.

"Hello, I'm Ma Shiming, who are you?" came an English sentence from the other side.

"Hello, Mr. Ma Shiming, I am Su Cheng, Hutchison Whampoa Taipan Su Cheng, I think you should know me." Su Cheng said in English with a smile.

Ma Shiming's first reaction was that this was a scammer's call.

However, in a blink of an eye, he knew he was not a liar, because Su Cheng had been frequently on TV media recently, and Ma Shiming had seen a lot of interviews with him.

And wasn't the voice on the TV exactly the same as the voice on the phone?

After calming down, Ma Shiming quickly replied: "Hello, Mr. Su Cheng, I wonder what you want to see me for?"

The person on the other end of the phone is recognized as the richest man in the world, but now he calls him personally.

Ma Shiming thought that although he was capable, he was just an unknown person. Why would Su Cheng, the world's richest man, call him personally?
With doubts, Ma Shiming placed the microphone closer to his ear to prevent him from hearing clearly.

"I would like to invite Mr. Joy to a restaurant in Central for a meal. The time will be set by Mr. I wonder if he will appreciate it?" Su Cheng said with a smile.

Joy Lai Restaurant is a restaurant under the Su Group.

Since Su Group's profits have skyrocketed, Joylai has also undergone major renovations.

Today's Joy Lai Restaurant has completely changed its style. The level of luxury is no less than that of a five-star restaurant, and many famous chefs have been hired with huge sums of money.

Coupled with the reputation of Sioux City, Joy Lai Restaurant has now become a famous high-end restaurant in Central. Many celebrities often dine there.

Therefore, when Su Cheng said that Xixi had come to the restaurant, Ma Shiming immediately knew where it was because he had been there before.

"I am deeply honored by Mr. Su's invitation. How about nine o'clock tomorrow morning?" Ma Shiming said.

Ma Shiming might refuse others, but Su Cheng personally invited them, so it was naturally impossible for him to refuse.

Tomorrow is December 12nd, which happens to be Saturday, and Ma Shiming doesn't need to go to work.

So, he will be free all day tomorrow.

If it was a working day, Ma Shiming would not be able to make an appointment at nine o'clock in the morning, when he would just go to work.

Ma Shiming himself is a person who is good at making friends. Although he doesn't know why Su Cheng is looking for him, Ma Shiming doesn't care.

Being able to get acquainted with the world's richest man is an opportunity for him.

Ma Shiming has been in the army for five years and has experienced many times of wandering between life and death.

Years of collective life have cultivated Ma Shiming's valuable qualities of caution and carefulness.

He once said: "I am diligent and conscientious in everything I do. When I get a transaction bill, I will carefully study its transaction process. Slowly, I became familiar with the processes in the business field, and by analogy, I became more and more proficient."

At the same time, the special experience of camping and fighting in various places allowed Ma Shimin to make many friends.

Three teachings and nine streams, all-encompassing.

There are princes, criminals, poets, politicians, entrepreneurs...

His wide network of contacts has helped his career a lot.

For example, the Rothschild financial family generously invested in the company he founded later.

These are also one of Ma Shiming's outstanding abilities.Because of this, when Ma Shiming, who likes to make friends, learned that the person who called him personally was Mr. Su Cheng, now recognized as the richest man in the world, and invited him to have dinner together, Ma Shiming decisively agreed.

Being able to get to know such a person, in his opinion, might bring benefits to him in the future.

After all, Ma Shiming is only 38 years old now and has a long career.

He had already planned to leave after continuing to work at Jardine for two years. At that time, he was just 40 years old.

After resigning, Ma Shiming will create a company of his own.

Over the years of work, he has also saved a lot of money. If it is still not enough to start a company, he can find investors when the time comes.

After all, he has made a lot of friends over the years, with almost all statuses.

After Su Cheng had a brief conversation with Ma Shiming, he hung up the phone.

We can talk about more content when we meet in person, there is no need to talk on the phone.

Tonight, A Mei's relatives came, so Su Cheng asked her to go down and have a good rest.

Gillian was the only one left to serve Su Cheng.

However, it is enough.

Su Cheng still has things to do tomorrow, and he doesn't want to wait too late.

At night, after a battle with Gillian, Su Cheng fell asleep holding her in his arms.

In a blink of an eye, time came to the next morning.

The punctuality of the biological clock allowed Su Cheng to wake up at seven o'clock, but instead of going back to sleep, he got up directly.

Gillian was still sleeping soundly, and she opened the quilt, revealing her perfect and alluring body.

Su Cheng did not wake her up, but covered her with the quilt again. After washing, he walked out of the room softly and closed the door.

There was nothing important in this bedroom, so Su Cheng didn't care if Gillian slept alone in it.

After finishing breakfast and reading the newspaper for a while, the time has come to 08:30.

Su Cheng checked the time, asked the servant to clean up, and then went out with his bodyguard.

It’s not that far from the Barker Road villa area to the Joyful Restaurant in Central.

In addition, today is the weekend, and there is no rush hour for work.

So, 10 minutes later, Su Cheng appeared in the parking lot of Joy Lai Restaurant.

He took the elevator directly to the restaurant lobby and was quickly noticed by the restaurant manager.

"Boss." Li Jiatao, the restaurant manager, quickly came to Su Cheng and asked cautiously.

"Arrange a private room for me. Also, a foreigner named Ma Shiming will arrive later. Then you can take him to my private room." Su Cheng said directly.

"Okay boss, wait a moment, I'll check the booking information." Li Jiatao replied.

Su Cheng nodded.

After a while, Li Jiatao came back again.

"Boss, there are still two empty boxes, one on the third floor and one on the fifth floor. I don't know which one you want?" Li Jiatao asked.

"Whatever, you look at the arrangement." Su Cheng said nonchalantly.

Today, only Ma Shiming was invited. Two people talking did not need a large and luxurious box, so Su Cheng had no requirements for this.

"Okay, boss, please follow me." Li Jiatao nodded, and then led Su Cheng straight to the third floor.
