The question is where all this ambient light comes from.
Some ideas:
-decrease albedo (brightness) of white materials
-decrease MSI (max sample intensity in render setup) to about 5-10, but probably no less - this will darken GI light
-I did not understand whether there are some windows there or not - where do the huge white reflections come from? If it's from the windows - you can decrease the brightness of the environment light, or use some more contrasty setup like sky+sun.

Corona rectangle light as ambient intensity 6 all visibility check
Object light  inside ceiling socket intensity 2 emit light check
Used many ies light in ceiling intensity 50000.0 cd
material albedo checked white is RGB 210.210.210
There is no windows face to outside completely closed like inside box for using sun and sky or hdri
