Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Bao Zixuan continued to play and disappear, and now people have become accustomed to it. Not even the people in Xiangjiang paid much attention to it, after all, it had been a long time. In addition, the successive episodes of Tycoon's Day on Li's TV station have changed the program a bit, and its attention has been greatly reduced.

At this time, everyone in the Weasel Factory of Tianshuiwei Heiyun Group is carefully checking every data; checking the accuracy of each component. After spending three months in an inhumane life, the engineers finally saw a glimmer of hope; their first ground-effect aircraft prototype was about to be assembled.

Looking at these people at this time, if they are not particularly familiar relatives and friends, it is probably difficult to recognize them. Everyone was not in a very good state of mind; some had long hair, and some simply had their heads shaved. The engineers at the Weasel Factory work very hard every day and have little time to do anything other than work. The time for eating and bathing here must be accurately calculated, otherwise it will slow down the progress of the entire project.

But at this critical moment, Joante, assistant to Hong Kong Governor MacLehose, came to the Black Cloud Group. He came here to give Bao Zixuan an invitation to attend the Christmas charity dinner held by the Hong Kong Governor's Office.

But what made Joante angry was that Bao Zixuan really didn't give him face. You can shirk the banquet invited by Huo Yingdong and Pao Yugang. Before, they were still talking about it when they were not in Xiangjiang, but now they are here and dare to refuse the governor's invitation. What does this mean? No face at all!

Zhao Tingting quickly explained: "I'm really sorry, Mr. Joante. Our boss has entered a critical period in product development in the laboratory, and has told no one to disturb him."

"In addition, in order to show the boss's support for charity, Heiyun Group will donate 10 million Hong Kong dollars to the organizer of this charity dinner."

Although he was unhappy, given his status, he really didn't dare to be too presumptuous towards Bao Zixuan.

Joante: "We all know that Bao Sheng is busy, but this is a matter assigned by the Governor. Moreover, he is a guest invited by His Excellency the Governor personally. It will not be easy for me to explain it when I go back."

Zhao Tingting: "Mr. Joante, please explain something in front of the Governor. Heiyun Group will send representatives to participate. In addition, we will fully cooperate with any requirements from the Governor's Mansion."

When Joante left, he took away a check of 12 million Hong Kong dollars, which made Zhao Tingting very angry. But it's hard to say anything. After all, his boss will only suffer some financial losses if he doesn't give face.

It can be said that Bao Zixuan still trusts Zhao Tingting very much. He can sign for payment in Xiangjiang as long as it does not exceed 20 million Hong Kong dollars. However, every month, PricewaterhouseCoopers' accountants will carefully check each item and form a report. What makes Bao Zixuan happy is that currently, there are really no major problems in each company.

All operating and purchasing costs are within a reasonable range. After all, Heiyun Group's welfare benefits are among the best in the world. If you leave because of corruption, it will really outweigh the gains and losses, and it will probably be difficult to find such a good job in the future.

After Joante returned, he explained to the Governor, which made MacLehose feel a little unhappy. However, he also knew that his term of office was coming to an end, and there was no need to offend Bao Zixuan at this time. Moreover, they also donated money, and with the help of his assistant, Joante no longer had any big objections to Bao Zixuan when he left the office.

On the evening of December 25, 1981, the festive atmosphere at the Governor's Palace in Hong Kong was very strong. This may be the last Christmas MacLehose spends in Hong Kong, and the last time he holds a charity dinner as Governor-General. Therefore, almost all the tycoons in Xiangjiang came to the Governor's Mansion, not only to celebrate the festival together, but also to see them off.

MacLehose can be said to be the most accomplished among the previous governors of Hong Kong. He can be regarded as the one who has truly contributed to the development of Hong Kong! His departure marks the end of an era, and tycoons are paying attention to the direction Hong Kong will develop after MacLehose leaves.

MacLehose also wanted to use his influence to make a final effort to persuade some tycoon-level figures not to agree to Xiangjiang's return. Even if return is inevitable, I hope they can relocate to the UK mainland. If all the big companies leave Xiangjiang, what else will there be in Xiangjiang? The return will be a joke at that time, and it will also let China know that the British Empire can still control the economic development of Hong Kong.

At this time, the Xiangjiang merchants in the Governor's Mansion can be said to be very different from each other. When the Governor did not arrive, it was basically people in the small circle who were chatting.

Fok Yingdong didn't want to attend the Hong Kong Governor's Office banquet, but he sent him an invitation. It doesn't make sense not to come, after all, everyone still has to live with it in order to save face.

Seeing Dong Haoyun, Bao Yugang, Zheng Yu and others chatting together, he walked over.

Seeing Huo Yingdong coming over, Zheng Yutong said with a smile: "I heard that Huo Sheng recently went to the north and stayed there for a long time. He should have gained a lot this time!"

Huo Yingdong spent nearly a month in the mainland this time and visited more than a dozen provinces. A preliminary understanding of the resource advantages and investment environment of these provinces is a signal that mainland China is increasing its efforts in reform and opening up. After Mr. Huo understood the situation, he was able to introduce it to other Xiangjiang businessmen. It can be said that in the early days of reform and opening up, Huo Yingdong used his influence to push Xiangjiang businessmen to invest in the mainland.

Huo Yingdong: "I saw a lot of magnificent scenery this time, and many places in the mainland are still very worthy of investment. Hasn't Zheng Sheng always wanted to invest in jewelry processing factories in the mainland? Several places I saw this time are more suitable, including If you have the opportunity, you can go and inspect it on the spot.”

At this time, Li Chaoren came over and said, "Huo Sheng, please don't favor one over the other. I'm also planning to go to the mainland to see if there are any good projects. Don't forget me."

Huo Yingdong: "These are all easy to talk about. As long as Li Sheng wants to go, he can do it at any time. By the way, why don't you see little Baosheng today? Do you know the situation, Mr. Dong?"

Dong Haoyun: "He didn't show up when you invited him last time, and he didn't show up when Bao Sheng celebrated his birthday. I originally thought that he should be able to see him at the Governor's Mansion banquet, but he still didn't show up."

"When Bao Sheng celebrated his birthday, he called me, asking me to explain to everyone on his behalf. I haven't been free for a while, and I will be serving wine to apologize after the project is over."

Hearing the conversation about Bao Zixuan, Bao Yugang also became interested. After all, my old man often asks about Bao Zixuan's situation, but he doesn't have much communication with them, so it's impossible to know the specific situation.

Dong Haoyun and Huo Yingdong are people in Xiangjiang who have had more interactions with Bao Zixuan, so they should know something about the situation. It's good to listen to it. At least you can have a few words with the old man when you go back.

Bao Yugang: "What kind of big project is Xiao Baosheng this time? I heard that it has been closed in the Heiyun Factory in Tianshuiwei for nearly three months. A lot of engineers have also been mobilized. Although we are not engaged in the technology industry, we know For such a big move, the products developed are definitely not simple.”

Dong Haoyun: "I don't know the specifics. No one in Xiangjiang except Xiaobao is engaged in the field of technology. I can't guess what he is going to do, but this guy can bring surprises to everyone every time. I am really looking forward to it this time." . After all, this is the first product he developed when he returned to Xiangjiang. It would be strange if it doesn’t shock people.”

Hearing everyone talking about Bao Zixuan made Zheng Yutong feel uncomfortable. After seeing Sha Dantong's expression, Huo Yingdong smiled and said, "Zheng Sheng, why haven't I seen your daughter recently?"

A person of Huo Yingdong's level would not ask his daughter what it meant for no reason. Zheng Yutong didn't quite understand it at the time, but he quickly replied: "I went to Europe for vacation a week ago and won't be back until New Year's Day."

Huo Yingdong: "With such girls, I still feel that your daughter and Xiaobao are more suitable. You can really consider it."

In fact, Huo Yingdong should not say these words as he is, but this is related to the unity among Chinese businessmen. Also, if Bao Zixuan marries a British or American woman, he will have many options to choose from. It is very possible that he really went abroad because of an unfavorable situation, which would be a huge loss to Xiangjiang. Even China as a whole cannot bear such a huge loss.

At this time, Heiyun Group, which plays a decisive role in the world's science and technology field, is particularly important. After all, this is a Chinese company, and Bao Zixuan is a patriotic businessman.

Just building a steel plant has made China's special steel products domestically produced. If there can be more such projects, it will be self-evident in promoting the scientific and technological development of the entire country. Therefore, he does not want Bao Zixuan to leave Xiangjiang, even if there is a trace of it. Not even hidden dangers.

Zheng Yutong has always been a fence-sitter and has not clearly expressed his intention to return. It may have a lot to do with the industry. After all, raw materials are too dependent on British influence. His heart may be towards the Chinese mainland, but there are great hidden dangers here. If Bao Zixuan can marry Zheng Jiajia, the chance of the two families leaving Xiangjiang together can be said to be extremely slim.
