When Mr. Huang returned to the port area with a lot of production equipment, Zhang Yu rushed to the port area communications company without stopping.
Zhang Yu came to Hong Kong this time mainly for study.
Motorola's engineers represent the pinnacle of technology in this era.
Although Zhang Yu thinks he is no worse than them, it is always right to study more.
Especially electronic knowledge, this is what Zhang Yu deserves to learn.
When Zhang Yu came to the port area, he was not in a hurry to go to the communications company, but came to Mong Kok.
Deep in the bustling area of the port area, you can see the crowds of people coming and going, the dense buildings, and all kinds of signboards hanging along the streets.
The street scene of the port area in the 1980s. Most of the residential buildings were over 15 storeys. In contrast, in the 1980s, there were no buildings over 10 storeys in the mainland.
In the port area in the 1980s, the economy was developing very fast.
Although the land area of the port area is not large, it is full of vitality. Not only the local people in the port area are actively looking for opportunities to make a fortune.
Many mainlanders have also flocked to Hong Kong, hoping to make a fortune in the prosperous Hong Kong.
No wonder there were many stowaways who came to Hong Kong in the early days. With such a prosperous port area across the river, how many people could withstand the temptation.
In addition, in those few years, most areas were in a state where they had no food or clothing. In order to survive, they could only fight hard and pray that they could become successful and let their parents, wives and children live a good life.
Walking on the bustling streets, smelling the various fragrances wafting from the concierges along the streets.
In his previous life, Zhang Yu, he had studied the special delicacies of the port area.
I also visited it on purpose and it is known as one of the top ten delicacies in the port area.
1. Yuanlang wife cake
Yuen Lang Wife Cake, a famous specialty cake in Hong Kong.
There is also a little allusion here. It is said that a long time ago, there was a loving couple but the family was very poor. Because the husband’s father was seriously ill and the family had no money to treat the disease, the wife decided to sell herself to the landlord’s house.
Earn money to treat the illness of her husband's father. Later, in order to redeem his wife, the husband made a kind of pancake. Because the pancake was very delicious, it was very popular with everyone, so the business was very good, and it didn't take long for him to make a profit.

Egg waffles are a traditional street snack unique to Hong Kong.
Egg waffles originated in the 1950s. It is said that they were invented by grocery store owners. It is said that grocery stores carry a lot of eggs every day.

5. Hong Kong Wonton Noodles
Wonton noodles, also known as "wontons", are Hong Kong-style specialties and an indispensable part of the Hong Kong food culture.
Both wonton noodles and cart noodles represent the life portrayal of the lower class people in Hong Kong in the past. Wonton noodles emerged when Hong Kong's economy was at its lowest ebb.
Nowadays, wonton noodles are still very popular among people and can be seen everywhere on the streets of Hong Kong. No matter which store we enter, what we eat is the authentic Hong Kong taste.
When it comes to Hong Kong-style wonton noodles, we have to mention those Hong Kong movies that Zhang Yu watched in his previous life.
Hong Kong-style wonton noodles, Hong Kong-style barbecued pork, Hong Kong-style pig's knuckle rice, and car noodles are a major feature of Hong Kong movies.
When Zhang Yu was watching Hong Kong movies, he was so greedy for these delicacies that he salivated.

It also has a bumpy, crispy skin that resembles a pineapple, hence the name. In fact, the pineapple bun does not contain any pineapple content.
Cut the pineapple buns and add a piece of thick cream in the middle to become the pineapple oil food served in tea restaurants. It has become the most representative afternoon tea in tea restaurants.
In his previous life, Zhang Yu had eaten pineapple buns at a tea restaurant. The rich buttery aroma was indeed a treat.
10. Poplar branch nectar
Yangzhi Manlu is a nutritious Hong Kong-style dessert. The main raw materials are sago, evaporated milk, coconut milk, mango, grapefruit, etc.
Although this visit to Hong Kong is not purely for fun, it does not hinder Zhang Yu's expectations for delicious food.
Along the street, Zhang Yu saw a barbecue shop and walked into the shop without hesitation.
I ordered a portion of roast goose and a portion of squab, which had a unique aroma that really conquered Zhang Yu's taste buds.
Although Zhang Yu can cook Cantonese cuisine, this authentic Hong Kong style barbecue is not available in the mainland.
After eating, Zhang Yu packed up another roast goose and took a taxi to Wan Chai Communications Company.
Looking at the tall buildings in front of him, Zhang Yu felt a different kind of emotion in his heart.
Unexpectedly, in such a prosperous area as the port area, it also has its own industry.
Although the ingredients behind this industry are subject to debate, it does not hinder Zhang Yu's inner pride.
However, before Zhang Yu could enter the building, he was blocked by the security guard at the door.
"Sir, who are you looking for?"
Zhang Yu then remembered that most of the people in this company were locals from the Hong Kong area. As for his big boss, he had never shown his face from beginning to end. No wonder the security guard didn't recognize him.
"I'm looking for Mr. Huang, is Mr. Huang in the company?"
Fluent Hong Kong came out of Zhang Yu's mouth.
When the security guard heard that the gentleman in front of him was looking for Mr. Huang, he checked Zhang Yu carefully and made sure that he had never seen Zhang Yu before.
However, Zhang Yu's aura of being a superior person made the security guards take him seriously.
"Sorry sir, I'll take you to the front desk to ask."
The security guard led Zhang Yu to the front desk and told the front desk about Zhang Yu's purpose.
Zhang Yu looked unfamiliar to the front desk, but his handsome appearance and easy delivery impressed the girl at the front desk.
However, there are still processes that still need to be done.
"Excuse me sir, do you have an appointment?"
Zhang Yu shook his head and said.
"No, but you can call Mr. Huang's office and tell him that Zhang Yu has arrived. Please come down and pick him up."
