Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Huo Yingdong had been paying attention while Governor MacLehose and Zheng Yutong were chatting, and at this time he saw Shadantong stunned. Could it be that the governor took advantage of him, or that the words were spoken from his heart. Either way, it's a danger sign.

Chow Tai Fook has important influence internationally, and Cheng Yutong is not only good in the jewelry business. It has also made great achievements in the real estate industry. The fact that New World can become one of the five real estate giants in Xiangjiang already speaks for itself.

It's not very convenient to be here today. It seems that I will invite everyone to come out and find a place to get together in a few days. Otherwise, if MacLehose really gave up his identity, some people might not be able to resist him.

MacLehose believes that the chat with Zheng Yutong has had a certain effect, and this is a good start. Now he has turned his target to Li Chaoren, thinking that this is also a target that can be fought for.

Seeing the governor coming, Li Chaoren did not dare to take off his clothes. He smiled and said: "Hello, Your Excellency Governor, nice to meet you."

MacLehose: "Hello, Mr. Li. I have been looking for you for a while, but I didn't expect you to be in the corner. This is not in line with your identity and status, and sometimes you should not be too low-key."

"Although you Chinese have an old saying that you can make a fortune silently, that is because of the special circumstances of China. There is no need to do this in the British Empire; the sanctity of private property is a law that everyone must abide by. I think You should understand this."

Li Chaoren is such a smart man. When MacLehose came to find him, he knew that this matter was not simple. Now I hear this outgoing governor say that private property is sacred and inviolable. This is not a disguised reflection of the Chinese mainland.

However, Li Chaoren is someone who often goes to the mainland, and he still knows a thing or two about China's current policies. It is self-evident that the British came to him for the purpose of making themselves stand out. He wouldn't do such stupid things, otherwise he wouldn't be Li Chaoren.

Li Chaoren said with a smile: "Thank you very much for the reminder, Your Majesty the Governor, but my assets are not ranked in the ranking in Hong Kong. I should look at other people's decisions before considering myself, but if a country wants to develop, it still needs to be credible, otherwise How can it be recognized by the international community, don’t you think so!”

Li Chaoren's answer made MacLehose not know how to answer the question, and he had basically blocked what he wanted to say. Looking at Li Chaoren, MacLehose suddenly felt that he had really underestimated this person over the years. This emotional intelligence alone is not comparable to that of ordinary people, and the most important thing is that he can't offend anyone. I haven't heard that Li Chaoren has been romantically involved with anyone in these years. It seems that he is the one who hides it deeply.

Compared with Fok Yingdong, Li Chaoren is not that close to the mainland; but compared to others, he is not alienated at all and maintains good relations with British companies such as HSBC. But if you want to say who Li Chaoren has a particularly good relationship with, there is really no one. This is the character trait a successful businessman should have, everything is just to achieve the goal. If there are too many emotional factors involved, it may affect your judgment.

MacLehose: Mr. Li, don't rush to a conclusion. Many things cannot be changed in a short while. To use your Chinese saying, it means that three times of freezing is not the same thing as one day. Is it necessary to change the system just because of one region or a few people? It would not be possible anywhere in the world, as that would cause dissatisfaction in other regions.

In fact, Superman has been thinking about these issues recently, but he soon became relieved. If various uncertainties and problems arise in Hong Kong's return, where will the big guys stand?

Li Chaoren: "I'd better see what other people think and then decide my own way out. Besides, it's still too early to talk about this. After all, it's still a long time before my return and everything is still unknown."

MacLehose was still a little unwilling to give up: "It's better to be prepared for anything in advance, otherwise you will be very passive when the time comes."

Hearing this, Li Chaoren knew that the top officials in Kyoto must have given the governor a strong signal to take back Xiangjiang. Even if it is an act of war, China must take back Xiangjiang, otherwise he would not be able to win over Chinese businessmen so actively. The Governor-General would not have cared so much about them before, but now it seems that some things need to be changed. Otherwise, let alone compared to Huo Yingdong, other people may have a higher status than him in the hearts of the senior officials in Kyoto.

No wonder Bao Zixuan dares to invest so heavily in China. This is his confidence. It may be a bit painful now, but once Xiangjiang returns, it will be a team in advance, which is much better than cramming for the moment.

Not to mention that Li Chaoren really increased his investment in mainland China. It can only be said that his life is good and he will still make money no matter what the situation.

Knowing that he couldn't break through with Li Chaoren, MacLehose moved on to the next goal. At this time, he was very emotional, when did this governor act so cowardly that he actually asked him to take the initiative to negotiate with these Hong Kong Chinese. This was impossible to happen before, and it was even more unimaginable.

Guo Deshengzhan is a relatively low-key existence among the five real estate tigers in Xiangjiang. He is not an academic like Hu Yingxiang. He designs and builds landmark buildings by himself. It’s not like Lee Shau Kee who specializes in recycling old buildings and advertising all over the world. He is not as good at marketing and publicity as Li Chaoren, nor is he richer than Zheng Yutong.

It can be said that Guo Desheng is the weakest among the five real estate tigers in one aspect, but at the same time he is also the most balanced. He entered the real estate field only after cooperating with Lee Shau Kee in the early days. At this time, he was completely independent and was able to make the business prosperous. This is a manifestation of his ability. No one can leave the business and continue to operate as usual.

After seeing Guo Desheng's information, MacLehose couldn't imagine how he could make his business so big. This person does not have any outstanding characteristics, and judging from his usual behavior, he does not look like a super rich man.

Guo Desheng did not expect that the Governor would actually come towards him. He had seen MacLehose chatting with Zheng Yutong and Li Chaoren before. Now come here and ask yourself, do you have any thoughts and purposes, or are you ready to defeat them one by one?

Guo Desheng: "Hello, Governor MacLehose."

MacLehose: "Hello! Mr. Guo, it's not easy to meet you."

Guo Desheng has always been known as an honest businessman in Xiangjiang. He usually has no other hobbies except work. Therefore, there is very little social interaction, and I basically don’t go out. The reason why I was able to come to the Governor's Palace this time was because MacLehose was about to leave office.

Guo Desheng: "Your Majesty the Governor is joking. If you want to see me, you can call me at any time. I promise to be on call."

MacLehose: "It's a little late for you to say that. I estimate that I will return to London next year. It is very far away from Xiangjiang, but if you can settle there, we can get together often, and maybe we can achieve what you said are always available to each other.”

MacLehose knew that time was running out, not only for his career as governor, but also for today's dinner, which must be resolved quickly.

Huo Yingdong, Dong Haoyun, and Hu Yingxiang are pro-mainland China factions, and even if they go by themselves, they will not have any effect. I still need to find a few more people to have a good chat with in the next few days. The last goal today is to focus on Guo Desheng!

Guo Desheng didn't expect Mac Lehose to be so direct. Judging from the expressions on Shark Dantong and Li Chaoren's words, they should have been more reserved when talking to them. How come he has completely changed? Isn't this bullying an honest person?

However, Guo Desheng is not as temperless as he seems on the surface, he just doesn't have the temper now. But you can't just let others bully you, even if the other person is the governor.

Guo Desheng: "My health is not very good. I heard that there is a lot of fog in London and I can't see the sun for a few days all year round. Xiangjiang is more suitable for me. When the Governor retires and can return to Xiangjiang, I will continue to follow him. Call and be there.”

This is the first time MacLehose has heard such an obvious rejection today. It seems that the intelligence information is not very accurate. Guo Desheng is also a person with ideas, and he is by no means an honest businessman as people say.

Fortunately, at this time, the host said that the auction was about to start, which just happened to relieve our Lord Governor, otherwise neither of them would know how to end it.
