Time passed by, and it was August. Li Guangyu came to Cao's house at about six o'clock in the evening to pick up Cao Weiqing, and together they attended the full moon banquet held by Huo's house tonight.
Zhu Linlin, who married into a wealthy family last year, gave birth to Qilin for the Huo family last month. Today, the Huo family will hold a full moon reception for Huo Qigang. All the upper-class families in Xiangjiang will attend. Cao Wenjin will also attend, but not with Li Guangyu.
In the past two months since he returned to Xiangjiang, although Li Guangyu is still very busy, he still takes out one day a week to spend time with Cao Weiqing. Now the relationship between the two is not bad. Although there is no vigorous love, the two are still relatively warm.
Li Guangyu's motorcade arrived at the Huo Mansion and saw Huo Zhenting greeting guests from all walks of life outside the gate. Today, Huo Zhenting is smiling all over his face. Last year, he brought the beauty home, and now he has Qilin'er. It is the time of great success.
Li Guangyu took Cao Weiqing's hand and walked towards Huo Zhenting.
When Huo Zhengting saw Li Guangyu coming, he said, "Li Sheng, Miss Cao, thank you for coming to Qigang's full moon wine."
After presenting the gift, Li Guangyu said: "Huo Sheng is so polite. Congratulations to Huo Sheng on the birth of your son."
"Li Sheng, Miss Cao, please come inside. My father is entertaining all the guests inside." After finishing speaking, Huo Zhenting ordered the people next to him to lead Li Guangyu and Cao Weiqing in, while he himself had to greet all the guests outside.
Li Guangyu accompanied Cao Weiqing into Huo's Mansion. Now he felt that Huo's Mansion was really big, and Li Guangyu felt that his villa was too small. Li Guangyu could not hold such a dinner at his own home.
Li Guangyu didn't think before that it would be fine if he could live alone anyway. Now that he is about to get married to Cao Weiqing, and thinking that there will be no place to hold a banquet in the future, Li Guangyu feels that it is necessary to build a large mansion.
Li Guangyu and Cao Weiqing came to the banquet hall and saw that the place was already very lively. Some familiar heads of small and medium-sized families were chatting together, and the ladies who came were also chatting in their own circles.
Several of Li Guangyu's uncles and aunts also came here, and Li Guangyu took Cao Weiqing over to say hello to them.
He Ji's wife, He Linjingyi, said to Cao Weiqing: "Weiqing, let's go over there and chat, and introduce some people to you by the way. Let them stay here."
Li Guangyu also said to Cao Weiqing: "Just go there with your aunts."
Cao Weiqing also knew that Li Guangyu was discussing something with his uncles, and it was not good for her to be here, so he, He Linjingyi, and He Luoqiwen left Li Guangyu's side and walked towards a group of wives.
At eight o'clock in the evening, Huo Yingdong said: "Thank you everyone for coming to my grandson's full moon wine."
These people said one after another: "Huo Sheng is so polite."
Li Guangyu was sitting at the same table with several uncles and aunts Cao Weiqing today. He Ji's wife He Linjingyi said with a smile: "Guangyu, Weiqing, you also try to hold the full moon wine next year."
Stanley Ho's wife, Ho Luoqiwen, also agreed: "Yes, Guangyu, Weiqing, please work hard, and we will make suggestions for you during the banquet."
Cao Weiqing's face turned red with embarrassment when his two aunts said this, and he lowered his head and did not answer.
Li Guangyu said: "Aunt, Aunt Hongyi, we will definitely ask you to help us organize the full moon banquet in the future."
Several uncles also hope that Li Guangyu can have someone to succeed him as soon as possible. Now the Li family is left with only Li Guangyu, which seems too thin.
After the lively banquet, Li Guangyu was invited to a living room of the Huo family. There were also many heads of big families here. Cao Weiqing's father also came here, as did Stanley Ho, the representative of the He family.
Came to the living room.
Li Guangyu estimated that Huo Yingdong was taking this opportunity to communicate with the major families in mainland China and Hong Kong.
Seeing that almost everyone had arrived, Huo Yingdong said to everyone: "Today, I would like to thank everyone for coming to attend my grandson's full moon party. Secondly, I will also take this opportunity to introduce a few guests to you so that you can chat more."
Huo Yingdong introduced a man in his forties: "This is Mr. Huang Yiming, director of the Guangdong Provincial Investment Promotion Bureau."
Regardless of the mentality of the powerful people present here, they all greeted Huang Yiming warmly.
Huo Yingdong then introduced to the man in his late forties next to Huang Yiming: "This is Mr. Li Tingwei, the deputy mayor of Pengcheng City."
Li Guangyu and the others still said enthusiastically: "Hello, Vice Mayor Li."
"This is Mr. Chen Xuhui, the investment director of Shekou Industrial Zone." Huo Yingdong introduced.
The heads of each family said hello to Chen Xuhui again.
Huo Yingdong said: "Now that the mainland is embarking on reform and opening up, some of the mainland's policies have also changed. I also take this opportunity today to provide a platform for everyone to communicate with the mainland. If you have any questions, you can speak freely."
Huang Yiming, director of the Guangdong Provincial Investment Promotion Bureau, said: "Due to some previous policy reasons, everyone is not very familiar with our current policies. Our province has received approval from the central government last month. We can be flexible in some policies for your investment.
Use and implement special policies.”
The heads of the major families didn't answer the call. They didn't know the specific policy at all, and it was hard for them to make a decision.
Li Tingwei, deputy mayor of Pengcheng City Government, said: "Our city is applying to the central government to set aside an area specifically for foreign investment. The central government is currently discussing and it is expected to be promulgated this month. Our government welcomes everyone to come to Pengcheng for inspection and exchange.
.”
Huo Yingdong said from the side: "I think everyone knows that the land price in Xiangjiang is getting higher and higher, and the labor cost continues to rise. However, both the land price and labor cost in the mainland are far lower than those in Xiangjiang. You can go and take a look.
, communicate with the local government and understand each other.”
Li Guangyu knew that Huo Yingdong had already established a hotel in Guangdong Province and the provincial government jointly, and the hotel officially started construction just last month.
Li Guangyu was determined to enter the mainland and build a factory. None of the big guys present spoke, so Li Guangyu didn't say anything.
When Huo Yingdong saw that everyone was silent, the scene became a bit embarrassing. So he said: "Do you have any doubts that you can raise? Director huáng They will explain to everyone what they can explain to you. There are some questions that Director huáng and they cannot answer.
, they can also report to the superiors, who will answer the questions for everyone."
Seeing this situation, the chartering king took over and said: "Huo Sheng, Mr. Huang, I am interested in getting involved, but at the moment I am mainly a shipping group. I can't do anything about investing and building factories in the mainland for the time being."
As soon as Bao Yugang said this, Zhao Congyan, Cao Wenjin, and Dong Haoyun all said this one after another.
Li Ka-shing said: "Huo Sheng, as you know, my main business is real estate development. I have no intention of getting into it but I don't have any projects to do."
Hang Lung Group's Chen Zengxi, Guo Desheng, and Li Shauji, who are mainly engaged in real estate, also followed Li Ka-shing.
Huo Yingdong does not expect these big guys to enter the mainland now. He hopes that the families in Xiangjiang who are engaged in business and own large factories can go to the mainland to build factories and invest.
What Huo Yingdong hopes most is that Li Guangyu will stand up and take the lead in investing in the mainland. With Li Guangyu's current influence, he can drive a large number of Hong Kong industrialists to invest in the mainland. For example, the Chen family of Xinglin Knitting Group, which cooperates with Li Guangyu, assembles arcade machines for Li Guangyu
The Wu family, which is an OEM, will follow Li Guangyu to invest in mainland China.
