Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

   Chapter 689 New Governor

   When Yang Chen and Xue Yufei arrived at the Peninsula Hotel and walked into the banquet hall, there were already a lot of Xiangjiang bigwigs gathered in the hall, and everyone gathered together to chat in twos and threes.

   However, when the two appeared, everyone involuntarily focused their attention.

   To say that during the Falklands War, in addition to caring about the war, the other big bosses in Hong Kong also paid attention to the actions of Yang Chen's Hang Seng Bank.

   For Yang Chen's actions two months ago, many people were not optimistic at that time, but now it has only been two months, and everyone is envious in addition to envy.

  摁, there is less regret.

   Watching his daughter bring Yang Chen in, Father Xue said hello to the people around him, and walked over.

   "Achen"

   "Uncle (Dad

  Yang Chen glanced around the hall and asked, "Uncle, haven't we started yet?"

  Father Xue shook his head and said with a smile: "Not yet, Governor Youde has not arrived yet, the big man will always arrive at the end, or else you will have to be welcomed by others personally?"

   With the great increase in the strength of Xue's industry, coupled with the blessing of Yang Chen, the son-in-law, Father Xue's current status is also very different.

  Fortunately, Father Xue is already old and has experienced everything in his life, but there is no difference because of the changes in Xue's business.

   Yang Chen shrugged and didn't answer.

   When he went to the Australian capital two months ago, he was personally picked up by the Australian Prime Minister.

  Compared with the Prime Minister of Australia, Youde, the Governor of Hong Kong, is not comparable at all. Obviously, the United Kingdom has just won a battle, and the British who are about to **** their braids start to be arrogant again.

   At this moment, the hall suddenly became lively.

   "Come on, I'm here with my heels." Father Xue said as he walked towards the door.

   "Hello Governor"

   "Hello Governor"

  …

   A group of rich and famous people lined up in two rows, as if welcoming the leaders of the country, one by one said hello to Yoder who walked in.

   "Sorry for keeping you all waiting."

  The standard politician's smile, friendly smile, and a London accent, people can't pick out the slightest fault.

   Seeing her father and a group of Xiangjiang bigwigs talking around Youde, Xue Yufei tugged at Yang Chen's sleeve and asked in a low voice, "Chen, can't we go over?"

  Yang Chen looked up, unfortunately, he just happened to look at MacLehose next to Youde, "Hey, has Governor MacLehose left Xiangjiang yet?"

   It stands to reason that the new governor is in place, and MacLehose, the previous governor, should leave Hong Kong. After all, this mountain cannot tolerate two tigers and two tigers, and one Hong Kong cannot accommodate two governors.

   Even if the other party wants to retire, he should go back to the UK. He doesn't believe that in the other party's heart, Hong Kong is more important than the home country of the UK.

  Xue Yufei glanced up, and then explained: "Under normal circumstances, the former governor will stay in Hong Kong for a period of time after the delivery of his duties, some may be a month or half a year, and some may be directly a year."

   "Now the UK and the inland are negotiating the Hong Kong issue. Before, the British side negotiated with the inland through Governor MacLehose."

   "So, although Governor MacLehose has resigned, he is still in charge of the negotiation. If he wants to return to the UK, he should not leave until the negotiation is concluded."

   "So that's the case." Yang Chen nodded, without asking more, he casually put the wine glass in his hand on the hand of the soldier who was following behind him.

   On the other side, MacLehose whispered a few words in Yoder's ear, and the two walked towards Yang Chen.

  MacLehose: "Mr. Yang Chen, long time no see."

  Yang Chen: "Long time no see, Mr. Governor"

  MacLehose: "Miss Xue, I haven't seen you for a while, you are getting more and more beautiful."

  Xue Yufei: "Thank you, Mr. Governor"

  MacLehose shook his head and introduced with a smile: "I am no longer the Governor, this is the new Governor of Xiangjiang, Mr. Youde."

  Yang Chen: "Hello, Mr. Governor"

  Youde: "Hello, Mr. Yang Chen, nice to meet you."

  Youde: "Here, please allow me to say hello to you on behalf of Madam Prime Minister. She said that I am very grateful for your help to the UK."

   Yang Chen raised his brows, and quickly said: "This is what I should do, the Prime Minister is too polite, I am ashamed to be worthy."

  Youde smiled and continued: "Before leaving, the Prime Minister asked me to send an invitation to you on her behalf. You are welcome to go to the UK to meet her soon."

  Yang Chen said earnestly: "I'm going to the United States at the end of the month. My game company is going public. It needs a little delay. I will definitely go to the UK to visit the Prime Minister in the middle of next month."

   Hearing Yang Chen say this, Youde immediately looked relieved, and said, "In this way, my mission is finally completed."

   In the face of Youde, who seems to be very friendly, Yang Chen secretly smiled bitterly in his heart, a politician is a politician, and with a few words, he couldn't refuse.

   Before seeing Youde, he didn't have a good impression of the governor in his heart, and of course, now he still doesn't have the slightest affection.

  Comparatively speaking, he prefers which of the later generations is a secret agent, a politician who was born in the military, no matter how hypocritical, there is still a side of iron-blooded tenderness, and the other party never betrays the truth.

People like    may make you feel very strong, but it is not difficult to get along, because what the other party does, the purpose is direct, and everything is clearly coded for you to understand at a glance.

   But the new governor in front of him, like most politicians, hides a knife in his smile, so that you can't figure out what he wants to express.

   One sentence, you guessed it.

   As soon as they met, Mrs Thatcher was moved out, so that he had no chance to refuse.

   Looking at the backs of the two leaving, Yang Chen reached out and took the wine glass in Junzi's hand, narrowed his eyes slightly, and took a sip.

   For some reason, he felt that today's banquet should not be so simple. If it was a simple celebration banquet, there would be no reason for the former Governor MacLehose to appear here.

   Even if the other party is celebrating, it should be in the UK, and there is no reason to accompany the new governor, Youde.

   After all, it is somewhat embarrassing for the former governor and the new governor to walk together.

   Although the Xiangjiang River is a little farther from the United Kingdom, the victory in the Falklands War was the largest war mobilized by the United Kingdom since World War II.

   Such a grand event, MacLehose is no longer the Governor of Hong Kong, there is no reason to miss it.

   Since the other party did not return to the UK, but instead attended the celebration banquet on the Xiangjiang side with Youde, the new governor, Yang Chen had some guesses in his heart.

   Thinking of the Great Wrestling of the Century, the momentum accumulated by the British victory in the Falklands War was swept away.

   Stealing chickens will not lose rice

   I lost my wife and lost my army

   Nothing more than that.
