Chapter 436

Huo Yingdong's idea Zheng Yutong is certainly not clear, but even if it is clear, it is not very optimistic. After all, my daughter is very sad because of this. It hurts to look at it. His daughter is not too afraid to marry, and it is impossible to wrong herself too much for a man.

Dong Haoyun may see some of Huo Yingdong's meaning and said with a smile, "what Huo Sheng said is still very reasonable. Among these rich families, I also like your family best."

Zheng Yutong: "you two don't look like matchmakers. Your children and grandchildren have their own blessings. I also felt that baozixuan was a good young man before, but you saw what happened last time. Who knows what he has done abroad in recent years! "

Shark Dan Tong has just finished. Huo Yingdong wants to defend baozixuan. Governor McLehose has come to the hall with his wife. Seeing that the protagonist has arrived, we are not sure what to say.

Today's McLehose can be said to be very well dressed and put on the clothes worn by the queen of England when she decorated him. Moreover, several medals are hung on the chest to let people see their past achievements. His wife also appeared in full dress, complemented by the long skirts of medieval aristocratic women.

He was very happy to see many tycoons in Xiangjiang come to the scene. The only drawback is the absence of baozixuan, which is a pity!

McLehose stood on the stage and said, "respected ladies and gentlemen. Merry Christmas, everyone! Thank you for coming to the governor's house to celebrate Christmas day. This may be my last Christmas with you as governor. "

"My term of office will end next year, when I will leave Xiangjiang. There may be new jobs to meet new challenges. However, during my 10 years as governor, I have regarded Xiangjiang as my second hometown. "

"The people here are very hardworking and have a strong business atmosphere. I can't imagine what I can achieve in the future, but my heart is to hope that Xiangjiang will become better. "

"In the past 10 years, I would like to thank everyone for my support and love. Being the governor who has served the longest time so far is inseparable from your strong support. Thank you again."

After bowing to the audience, the people below also remembered the warm applause, which was the recognition of Mai Lihao.

Mai Lihao witnessed the economic take-off of Xiangjiang, and the strong economic growth during his tenure was unprecedented since the opening of the port. With his assistance, Xiangjiang has gradually transformed from being dominated by light industry to focusing on electronic industry, finance and commerce, and has become one of the "four little dragons in Asia", laying an important cornerstone for the prosperity and stability of Xiangjiang and becoming an international financial center in Asia in the future. In addition, the "positive non interventionism" put forward by the financial secretary, sir Xia Dingji, during MacLehose's term of office has also become the financial management philosophy of the Hong Kong government and MacLehose's policy objective.

However, there are also criticisms from the outside world that MacLehose has always failed to completely solve the core problems such as insufficient housing, insufficient university degrees, uneven quality of education, inequality between the rich and the poor and traffic congestion. Many public opinion also believe that he has failed to quickly respond to the successive social movements during his term of office; As for the handling of illegal immigrants from mainland China and Vietnamese refugees coming to Hong Kong, it has also aroused a lot of controversy.

During his tenure of more than 10 years, he successively established the Independent Commission against corruption, launched the "home ownership" plan to help poor families solve the housing problem, and the nine-year free education plan to popularize primary and secondary education, which is still very useful for the economic development and construction of Xiangjiang. It can be said that this is Xiangjiang's promising governor, at least much better than other governors.

After speaking, Mai Lihao began to communicate with the following people. This time, his main goal is the Chinese business community. After all, none of the British businessmen wanted Xiangjiang to return.

In fact, MacLehose was invited to visit mainland China in 1979 and became the first Hong Kong Governor to visit China in an official manner after the war. During his visit to China, he met with the high-level officials in Kyoto. During the meeting, he learned that the high-level officials in Kyoto were determined to recover Xiangjiang on or before 1997. As a result, this meeting opened the prelude to the subsequent negotiations on the future of Xiangjiang. After returning to Xiangjiang, Mai Lihao was worried about causing panic and did not mention that Huaxia insisted on taking back Xiangjiang's remarks.

Now we can only hope that Xiangjiang businessmen can resist the Chinese side. After all, Britain's intervention is an act of war. China will never fear the threat from the British. If so, what position will it have in the international community in the future.

Recently, Mai Lihao has taken good care of Xiangjiang Chinese businessmen who have handled immigration, but these people are still a minority after all. The main influence is very limited, and they are not top business tycoons.

This time, we just take advantage of this opportunity to continue to win over Xiangjiang Chinese businessmen, who can come forward to fight Huaxia better. If you are afraid or unwilling to apply for immigration, it is also good. At least weaken China and strengthen the British economy.

And before the banquet began, he chose the target, of which Zheng Yutong was a good candidate. Chow Tai Fook started with gold jewelry and became stronger relying on the real estate industry.

However, in the Chinese mainland, gold and silver are controlled substances, and the people have not completely liberalized them. Zheng Yutong is now too bold to invest in gold and silver business, and diamonds and Jadeites can only be produced in places controlled by Britain and the United States. This requires the power of the British, so he decided to win over Zheng Yutong.

Seeing the governor coming to him, shark courage is that no matter how bold he is, he must restrain at this time. Although Mai Lihao will leave Xiangjiang next year, he still needs to give some respect. Otherwise, when handing over the work, what good impression can the new governor have on you.

Zheng Yutong said to Mai Lihao, "thank you for inviting me to attend the Christmas charity dinner. Xiangjiang is getting better and better under your management."

Although knowing that Zheng Yutong said polite words, it also made Mai Lihao happy. At least Zheng Yutong didn't exclude him very much. This is a sensitive period. Many people worry that it will be misunderstood if they have too much contact with Mai Lihao.

After all, we are all Chinese, and Xiangjiang is about to face the return negotiations. No one wants to make trouble.

Mai Lihao: "the prosperity of Xiangjiang is due to good policies. I'm just an executor. Zheng Sheng considered whether he could continue to implement the market economy after Xiangjiang returned to the mainland; The mainland is now a planned economy. At that time, there will be no need for so many gold and silver jewelry. The precious metals over there are controlled substances, and Chow Tai Fook's business will not be so easy to do“

This sentence is somewhat offensive. It clearly tells you that if Xiangjiang really returns to Chow Tai Fook, it is difficult to continue its business. Moreover, the British policy is conducive to the development of you Xiangjiang businessmen. After the takeover of the Chinese mainland, you can make money as easily as now. It can be said that it is very difficult.

He knew that the governor would not come to chat with him for no reason. After all, his face was not as brave as that. Now it's Wang fried. I really don't know how to pick it up.

What Mai Lihao said is not unreasonable. Chow Tai Fook is different from other enterprises. You must have the support of the state, or who dares to buy you gold. I really don't know how to implement the mainland's policy. After all, I haven't exported any precious metals in recent years.

Zheng Yutong: "what the governor said is very reasonable. Can you show me a clear way?"

Seeing that the effect had been initially achieved, Mai Lihao smiled and said, "now is the time for you Xiangjiang businessmen to come forward. I hope you can unite as one to ensure the interests of your families."

"In addition, we should make more preparations. The futures market in London, UK, has great potential for Chow Tai Fook. Both futures and spot can meet the processing and supply of jewelry. I hope you can think about it. "

Seeing that the goal has been preliminarily achieved, Mai Lihao goes towards the next goal. Today he wants to break each one. After all, there is not much time left for him.

See Zheng Yutong think again and know that his words have played a role, that's OK. After making an appointment before leaving, it is estimated that Zheng Yutong will have the idea of immigrating to the UK.

Of course, MacLehose knows that these Xiangjiang tycoons have their own ideas to achieve such a high level of business. It can be said that they are the dragon and Phoenix among people and the elite among the elite. He may have to pay a great price to persuade the other party, but he is willing to bear the price, as is the British Empire.

After World War II, Britain has lost too many overseas territories. Xiangjiang can't keep it. Now the only thing he can do is the last fight. If he doesn't succeed, Xiangjiang will lose his strength. If I can't get it, I'll destroy it. MacLehose is following the plan step by step. As an Englishman, he has no choice.
