The rise of great powers: starting from military industry

This battle was a great victory!

Also, many soldiers with military merits and honors were born!

Third-class merit, second-class merit, and first-class merit are rewards for personal military merits. Personal honorary titles, as well as combat heroes, especially first-class combat heroes. Even in this ten-year war, there are not many who can obtain first-class combat heroes.

Not all of them can attend the commendation meeting, and some are recuperating in the hospital.

In addition to personal military merits and personal honors.

There are also collective honors!

Two heavy composite brigades, another heavy composite brigade besides the ‘Tiger Brigade’, won the title of ‘Brave Brigade’; two medium composite brigades, another medium composite brigade besides the ‘Tiger Brigade’, won the title of ‘Tiger and Leopard Brigade’; two light composite brigades, another light composite brigade besides the ‘Eagle Brigade’, won the title of ‘Longxiang Brigade’.

Special brigade flags will be the honor of a composite brigade and the soul of the army, and will be passed down from generation to generation.

After the commendation meeting, everyone was busy with their own things.

The "Brave Brigade" will go north to the "Zhu Rihe" military training base, and the "Tiger and Leopard Brigade" will go to a military camp in Kunming.

After leaving the Malong military training base, Liu Tao took a special plane to Hong Kong.

The most important thing about this trip to Hong Kong is the holding of the shareholders' meeting of various listed companies. Only after the shareholders' meeting is held, the profits to be distributed will be distributed.

At this time, the stock prices of these listed companies will rise, intending to get dividends.

Another thing is the shipping group.

Since the outbreak of the Iran-Iraq ship attack war, the shipping group has rented a large number of tankers to transport oil to the Persian Gulf.

Every day, the shipping group often transports 6 million barrels of oil from the Persian Gulf to all parts of the world, becoming the world's largest oil transportation group.

Part of these 6 million barrels of oil are transported to Europe, part to the United States, and the other part to various refineries in China.

As for Singapore, it is in bad luck.

Before, Singapore was the world's third largest refining center after Rotterdam in the Netherlands and New York in the United States.

Even though Jurong Island, which later occupied two-fifths of Singapore's refining capacity, had not been reclaimed, the current daily crude oil refining capacity exceeded 2 million barrels, and the oil transported back through the Red Sea could not meet Singapore's refining needs at all.

Liu Tao transported the oil from the Persian Gulf, so he naturally would not transport the oil to the Singapore refinery, which would make it cheaper for Singapore.

From a certain perspective, Singapore and Hong Kong are in a competitive relationship.

Liu Tao transported the oil to China's refinery for refining. In addition to meeting China's oil demand, it was exported to Japan and South Korea. These two countries also need a lot of oil. They have no oil resources and are oil-poor countries.

During this period, Liu Tao made a lot of money from oil trade.

Although the shipping group only makes money from freight, it is enough to make the shipping group's semi-annual financial report very good.

When he came to Hong Kong again, Liu Tao felt that Hong Kong was more prosperous.

Last year's super black Monday seemed to have never happened, and the stock market was more prosperous than before the stock market crash last year.

The whole of Hong Kong is developing very fast.

A new batch of rich people are born here every year.

Hong Kong's industrial capacity is constantly increasing, and the industrial output value has reached an exaggerated level.

Yuen Long, Tuen Mun District, North District, Tai Po District, Tsuen Wan District, Shatin District, and Sai Kung District are developing very rapidly. I am afraid that in a few years, they will be able to catch up with Hong Kong Island and Kowloon!

Last year, Hong Kong's GDP exceeded 110 billion US dollars, which is almost equivalent to South Korea's GDP. As for Singapore's GDP last year, it was less than 20 billion US dollars.

Liu Tao arrived in Hong Kong and felt the changes in Hong Kong.

More and more people are using mobile phones, and more and more people are using computers for work.

Transportation, buses The buses produced by Huaxia Automobile Group are increasingly appearing on the roads of Hong Kong. The cars produced by Huaxia Automobile Group have become the choice of more and more people in Hong Kong. Similarly, the motorcycles produced by Huaxia Motorcycle Group also dominate the Hong Kong market.

Huaxia Automobile Group's cars, except for sports cars and high-end sedans, are still relatively lacking, and they almost dominate the Hong Kong market.

The room at the Peninsula Hotel where Liu Tao stayed was even equipped with a computer.

After taking a shower and eating something, the secretary in the suite was reporting to Liu Tao about the schedule for this trip to Hong Kong.

This time he will stay in Hong Kong for a week, attending five shareholders' meetings and three cocktail parties.

It can be said that the entire schedule is fully arranged.

"By the way, Mr. Huo will hold a cocktail party tomorrow night and invite you to attend. Do you want to attend?" said the secretary.

Liu Tao pondered for a moment and said, "Reply to the other party that I will attend the cocktail party tomorrow night."

Over the years, the two sides have cooperated very closely.

Of course, Huo Yingdong has also invested a lot in the mainland, which has played a good demonstration role, and has made great efforts in Chinese sports.

Huo Yingdong also knew not to touch some areas that should not be touched.

As the richest man in China today, the richest Chinese in the world, and a super-rich man ranked in the top ten of the world's richest list, Huo Yingdong has a great influence.

However, according to the rules, Huo Yingdong has handed over business matters to his children, at least on the surface. Now, it is clear that Huo Yingdong has given up business and entered politics.

In terms of rank, he is still above Liu Tao.

No matter from which aspect, since Huo Yingdong invited him to the cocktail party, he had to give him face.

This is not only the personal friendship between the two sides over the years, but also the cooperation between the two sides. To put it in a broader sense, this is related to the stability and development of Hong Kong.

Because of Liu Tao, the fate of Hong Kong has changed, and the economic structure of Hong Kong has changed dramatically, which has led to the ceiling of the original traditional Chinese businessmen in Hong Kong being locked.

If you want to become a super rich, it is not enough to rely solely on Hong Kong's real estate.

Not to mention that a large amount of land in Hong Kong is in the hands of Liu Tao, and they have no way to control the entire Hong Kong real estate.

The current Hong Kong is no longer the previous Hong Kong. The upper level is watching, and that kind of situation will never happen.

And Huo Yingdong is a model set up.

"Also, Dong Daheng wants to invite you for afternoon tea, and the time is up to you." The secretary flipped through the notebook and said.

Liu Tao knew who Dong Daheng the secretary was talking about. It was Dong Jianhua, the current boss of the Dong family.

Dong family, the last head of the family, Dong Haoyun, is also the founder of the Dong family. He is the founder of Donghai Overseas Container Shipping Company, a pioneer of modern Chinese shipping, and one of the "Seven Great Ship Kings in the World".

Before, the seven great ship kings in the world were Bao Yugang, Dong Haoyun, Livanos, Onassis, Bergson, Shalan, and Niagos. These seven are the largest independent ship merchants in the world.

At that time, Bao Yugang's Global Group had a tonnage of more than 13 million tons, ranking first in the world, and Dong Haoyun had a total tonnage of 11 million tons in 149 ships.

After Dong Haoyun died in 1982, his son Dong Jianhua took over the Huo family. He did not learn from Bao Yugang to abandon the ship and go ashore, but continued to purchase large cargo ships. These took advantage of the east wind of sea transportation and were also very prosperous.

However, after the death of old man Dong Haoyun, Dong Jianhua and others were inevitably one generation younger than other tycoons and their methods were slightly inferior, so the Dong family could not even make it into the top ten families in Hong Kong.
