Super Tycoon
Chapter 333: A Global Event
At 00:00:00:00 on July 1, 1997, the flags on the Xiangjiang side alternated. The Chinese flag and the Xiangjiang SAR flag were raised, and the British flag fell.
At this moment, many people in Xiangjiang stayed up all night. They stood on the street in front of their homes, in the square, and some watched the live broadcast of the handover ceremony in front of the TV.
The three members of Zhang Yang's family sang the national anthem together with the performance of the military band.
Cheers could be heard everywhere on the street. Zhang Weiguang held a camera in his hand and kept taking pictures.
"Son, there are too many people here. Didn't they say that the people in Xiangjiang are similar to Bingcheng? I think there are more than that." Yang Sulan raised a small national flag in her hand and asked loudly.
"Mom, today is a special day, and it's normal for the number of people to double. Think about it, there are many people who come to travel like us. Look over there, the language spoken there is Jinmen accent, and there, Speak authentic Northeast dialect."
What's more, not only their mainland tourists, but also many Chinese and overseas Chinese in other regions, including many people from Britain, are watching, as well as some Americans and Europeans, to see if they can do something.
At this time, many shops moved out the TVs and put them on the side of the street, and all the TVs watched the same channel. In fact, even if it is on a different channel, what you see is the same scene.
Not only the media in the mainland and Xiangjiang, but also some mainstream media abroad are also broadcasting this incident. This is definitely a major event with global influence. The rise of Huaxia and the status of Xiangjiang have to attract the attention of the world.
And many foreign dignitaries sent congratulatory messages regardless of jet lag. Even if they don't really congratulate in their hearts, they still need to save face.
Seeing military vehicles being tested in front of them, some people were happy while others were sad.
In fact, in the early years, when the negotiation had already determined the outcome of the general framework, many people clamored that Xiangjiang was going to die. Even the government of Britain, and the governments of many countries in Southeast Asia, especially in areas where the Chinese have some status, are encouraging some wealthy immigrants from Xiangjiang.
For example, for Li Chaoren, the most powerful old lady in Britain personally promised that if Li Chaoren was willing to join the British nationality, he would give him the title of duke.
Not only because of Li Chaoren's net worth, but also because of Li Chaoren's influence in Xiangjiang. If Li Chaoren takes the lead in becoming a British citizen, then many Hong Kong tycoons who are on the sidelines may become British.
At that time, it will not only increase a large amount of wealth,
There are still many industries that can weaken Xiangjiang's status in a disguised form and cause some troubles for Huaxia.
However, Huaxia's political axe had already sent people over to talk about it, and Li Chaoren was a clear-cut supporter of the mainland. It's okay to do business in Britain, but he doesn't want to become a nationality there.
Many people, especially the elderly, are very reluctant to move away from their native land. The same is true for Li Chaoren. He rose here, became a top global celebrity here, and his home is also here.
He became a British citizen, but he couldn't stay in Xiangjiang forever. This not only had a great impact on his business, but also made him very unhappy.
Li Chaoren made a decision very early, which also made many local gentry in Xiangjiang decide to stay. Didn't the mainland also promise that they won't attack them, and even some special circumstances can be treated specially.
With the economic development of the mainland, more and more rich Hongkongers are attracted to invest in the mainland. They also find that the mainland government has really changed, allowing large private companies to appear in the mainland.
For example, the richest family in the Mainland at this time, the Zhang family of Zhi Duoxing, the Liu family who make feed, and some rich people who are engaged in real estate, etc., this was absolutely unimaginable before.
Only after seeing it in person, they believed that they could stay and develop better with the help of the east wind from the mainland.
To develop the mainland, money is definitely needed. After the development is completed, you can also earn more money. Compared with areas that like to invest in the United States and island countries, Xiangjiang must have an advantage. After all, everyone is their own.
Then the dividends brought about by this development must not be allowed to be taken away by others.
But there are still some people who don't like it, such as some people who are out of the way. Before Xiangjiang, there was no serious department~~team, they all relied on the police~~police.
And because Xiangjiang is surrounded by the sea on all sides, and it is the world's top port city and financial city, so this side is also relatively chaotic. The most basic thing is to pay for parking fees, because controlling a few streets can make hundreds of thousands or even millions of profits a month.
Not to mention that there are also bars, dance halls and other places, which are all selling gold. Where there are interests, there will naturally be struggles.
When they saw that Huaxia took over Xiangjiang, they knew that their business was not easy to do. In the past, there were only so many errands in Xiangjiang. Any city in the mainland could attract a group of soldiers, and they couldn't afford to provoke them.
Not only in Xiangjiang, but also in the mainland at this time, many people stayed up late watching TV, including some students who were about to take final exams, and their parents did not stop them.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime event, and it concerns the glory of the country. Can we not let it be seen? Besides, everyone guessed that this year's matter will definitely be included in the exam questions, so it wouldn't hurt to have a look.
The handover ceremony ended, and the streets became more lively. Zhang Yang and his family of three ate all kinds of snacks on the street while walking.
At this time, there were many military uniforms patrolling the street, so they were not too worried about security issues, not to mention that there were some bodyguards in civilian clothes around their family.
Compared with before coming to Xiangjiang, at least the law and order today is much better. Xiangjiang is also working hard to build the world's top safe city, hoping to attract more tourists to spend and stimulate economic development.
Without the support of Britain, Xiangjiang's economy will definitely have some impact. Previously, this was the gathering point of the entire Commonwealth of Nations in Southeast Asia, but now its status is completely different.
At this time, a camera on the street swept across, Zhang Weiguang was still holding a small red flag and waved, and other tourists crowded over, wanting to catch a camera.
Jia Tao, who was watching the live broadcast at home, suddenly pointed at the TV and yelled: "Hey, look, you are my classmate and their family, so I said they must have gone to watch it live."
"After I graduate and work, it will be too late for Xiangjiang. When Macao City returns, I will take my parents to see it."
"You brat, just brag, just you, how much money can you make after graduation, and you still want to go to that kind of place?" Some students retorted. How much is the air ticket for a trip to Macau.
"Hey, if you can't do it, it doesn't mean I can't do it. Anyway, after I go to work, I must earn more than you." Jia Tao pouted, I still have to go to the city of Macau to have a look.
After the exam is over in two days, he will go to practice. He must let those people see that I, Jia Tao, can go, not because of Zhang Yang's relationship, but because I really have the ability!
