Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

   Chapter 667 Flickering

   In front of the state apparatus, no matter how powerful the forces are, they will be ruthlessly destroyed, especially a country with a strong military like Britain.

  In addition to those countries whose strength is equal to them, anyone or any force who dares to provoke will lose a layer of skin even if they don't die.

  With no support from the US government behind him, he cannot be as reckless and unscrupulous as the group of giant crocodiles on Wall Street. Even the only old nest, Xiangjiang, is under the control of the other side.

   So, unless absolutely necessary, he will not go to trouble himself.

   However, being warned by Prince Charles in person, Yang Chen's face was also a little ugly.

   Of course, it's just ugly, and he didn't really pay attention to Prince Charles' warning.

   He did not take advantage of the negotiation between the two countries to make money in the London stock market.

   As for the reason, it is very simple.

  Because of the Hong Kong issue, whether in the political arena or the outside world, everyone in the UK has already guessed the result after so long of reporting.

   Since the Second World War, the British colonies have become independent one by one, and both officials and ordinary people in the UK have become accustomed to it.

  Xiangjiang is such a big place. Although the economic development has been good in recent years, it is only good.

   For the sake of a small space, go to war with those who can resist the two large-scale aggressions of the United States, and finally let the United States leave in disgrace. As long as the shrewd British people are not stupid, they will eventually choose to compromise.

   The most important point is that Hong Kong’s economy is good or bad, and it does not affect the British mainland. Compared with the loss of India and Australia, Hong Kong is completely incomparable with the two.

   Even if Hong Kong does return, the London stock market will only experience small fluctuations at most, and the movement may not be as big as the movement after the French elections.

   Small money is boring, but big money suits his appetite.

   "Don't worry, Your Royal Highness, I won't mess around."

   "I hope so!" Prince Charles still didn't believe it.

  Money can make people crazy. He already knew what Yang Chen did in France. The other party dared to bite a piece of meat from France.

   It can be seen that the other party is so daring, if he said that Yang Chen would not mess around, he would not believe it.

  Yang Chen shook his head: "His Royal Highness, what do you want me to say, let me tell you the truth, before coming to London, I borrowed a three-billion-dollar loan from Prince Nayef of Saudi Arabia.

   I will spend most of this money on the next cooperation project with the Australian government, and the other one, etc. I want to come to the UK to pick up some cheap ones. "

   "Pick up cheap?" Prince Charles looked bewildered.

   Yang Chen ignored him, and said to himself: "Since the 1940s, the British Labour & Conservative Party and Conservative & Party have been competing against nationalization and private ownership.

During the Labour & Party administration from 1945 to 1951, in order to reorganize the post-war economy and enhance the competitiveness of certain sectors, the British government used the Bank of England, civil aviation, coal, railways, electricity, gas, and telegraphs. And international radio and some iron and steel enterprises to implement "nationalization".

   And from 1951 to 1964, the Conservative Party came to power and began to implement the privatization bill.

  Beginning with the first and second state-private rivalry, for decades, the two parties have tossed back and forth between state-owned and privately owned…”

   "Now, many (British) state-owned enterprises have become a heavy burden on the government's finances due to poor management and serious losses."

   "In order to solve this problem, the Conservative Party, headed by Margaret Thatcher, continued to implement a large-scale private law after coming to power."

"With the strength of the British Conservative Party, I bet that they can still be re-elected next year. As long as the Conservative Party can be re-elected, and there is a few years of buffer time, then no matter whether the Labour Party will come to power again and implement nationalization, or whatever, for It's an opportunity for me to…”

   After listening to Yang Chen's words, Prince Charles couldn't help but suddenly realize: "So you are thinking of this, I should have thought about it earlier."

  Yang Chen continued to fool and said: "It's not that His Royal Highness didn't think of it, it should be that my growth rate is too fast, so that His Royal Highness ignores this aspect of the problem."

   Prince Charles smiled awkwardly when he heard the words, and said, "Chen, I apologize to you. Now I really want to know that you are more optimistic about that industry, so I can help you connect."

   He really didn't think that Yang Chen's large sums of money would flow into the UK before, not for the stock market. British privatized companies, especially those big companies, could not be acquired by ordinary people.

  Everywhere pays attention to personal connections. In order to make up for his misunderstanding just now, Prince Charles is also unambiguous and gave a guarantee.

   Hearing Prince Charles say this, Yang Chen was instantly happy, he didn't expect that he would have such a big benefit by fooling himself like this.

   To be honest, Yang Chen is very interested in the privatization of the UK, to the same extent as the development of Northern Australia.

  Since Margaret Thatcher came to power in 1979, the British government, under the leadership of the Conservative Party, began to implement a large-scale privatization bill.

  The privatized industry includes large state-owned enterprises such as aviation, telegraph and radio companies, oil companies, and automobile companies.

  Especially the radio company, which is a company that Yang Chen is very envious of, especially the Great East Telegraph Office, the largest in the UK. This old-fashioned telecommunications company in the UK is very rich in both technical personnel and background.

Great Eastern Telegraph Office is one of the world's top 500 companies in later generations. Its main business is to provide customers with voice communication, data and IP services, other telecom operators, mobile communication operators and content, application and Internet service providers. Provide services.

  Its business covers more than 80 countries and occupies a quarter of the world's long-distance communication market.

  The reason why the Dadong Telegraph Office occupies such a large share is mainly that before the First World War, the British territory accounted for a quarter of the earth's area.

   And the Great Eastern Telegraph is the center of British communications, and the business involved is quite extensive.

   When the Second World War broke out, the Dadong Telegraph Bureau once shouldered the responsibility of battlefield communications and sabotage of enemy communications.

   The Dadong Telegraph Bureau has always been a state-owned enterprise, but after the new government of the Conservative & Party, which believes in the free market, came to power, the Dadong Telegraph Bureau has begun to be gradually split and privatized.

   He doesn't expect to be able to get a local communication company in the UK, as long as there are Asian countries and Australia, he can wake up with a smile from his dreams.

  It is time to enter the 21st century, with the advent of smart phones, whether in developed or developing countries, the penetration rate of smart phones is very high, and the scale of the industry is far beyond people's cognition in this era.

  In the next few decades or hundreds of years, the communication industry will be a real big gold mine, which is inexhaustible and inexhaustible.

   Yang Chen is naturally greedy, he just doesn't know if there is a chance.
