Li Guangyu and his allies were very fast this time and had already converted industrial land into commercial land on Tuesday morning, for which Wei Yixin played a huge role.
At the same time, on this day, several universities announced that they would build new campuses in Fenshui. Luo Dechen Law Firm, Qinghong Law Firm, and Zhou Xiaoning Accounting Firm also jointly announced that these parties have obtained approval from the government and will build new campuses in Fenshui.
Xiangjiang University of Finance trains outstanding talents in finance, economics, accounting, and law for Xiangjiang.
With the release of these news, the citizens of Fenshui New Town celebrated again. They said that Fenshui will become the third university gathering area in Hong Kong after Tin Shui Wai and Tseung Kwan O. With the development of sports industry and tourism industry, Fenshui will become the third university gathering area in Hong Kong in the future.
Water will definitely become another important center of Hong Kong.
Ordinary citizens were all happy, but the thoughtful Chinese senior officials in Xiangjiang discovered something unusual. Li Guangyu in Sham Shui Po was eager to take over the land, so it was not worth making a fuss about.
However, these schools have established new campuses one after another, which is quite unreasonable. Several universities have only been established not long ago. There is no need to build new campuses now. At this time, several universities have announced the establishment of new campuses in Fenshui, and then contacted
Li Guangyu couldn't wait to acquire the land in Sham Shui Po, but there was a big problem here.
What exactly made Li Guangyu rush for time? They hope to know the answer so that they can take the initiative in future changes.
Perhaps God understood the thoughts of these upper-level officials, and the news did not keep them waiting. In the afternoon of the same day, news came from London that Sir Wilson was recalled to London due to work needs, and his governor would be John Major.
·Before Major arrived in Hong Kong, Hong Kong affairs were temporarily handled by the Chief Executive, waiting for John Major to take over.
The order for Wei Yixin's transfer back was advanced. The reason was some actions of Li Guangyu and others. Some members of the British Council were very dissatisfied with this, so they directly asked Wei Yixin to return to the headquarters a few days in advance.
At this time, all parties also understood why Li Guangyu was so anxious. It turned out that this person had long known that Wei Yixin was about to leave, and the newcomers obviously would not think about the future of Xiangjiang like ordinary Youde and Wei Yixin, so
Only then will the needs for the next few years be determined before Wei Yixin leaves office.
In the evening of that day, Li Guangyu and Cao Weiqing went to the Governor's Mansion together to attend the farewell dinner held by the Governor's Mansion for Wei Yixin.
Although Wei Yixin served as the governor of Xiangjiang for only two years, he did a lot for Xiangjiang.
Among them, the MTR from Hung Hom to Tseung Kwan O and from Central to Tseung Kwan O, the MTR from Hung Hom to Powder Shui, the construction of the Heung Kong International Airport, and the planning of the Powder Shui and Sham Shui Po sub-centers are all inseparable from Wilson's planning and support.
Since Wei Yixin has lived in Hong Kong for many years, he wholeheartedly hopes to develop Hong Kong well. This is exactly what some people in the UK do not want to see, so his term of office will be so short this time, not even a normal term.
Not achieved.
In the banquet hall, sitting on the left side of Wilson Wilson were the Secretary of Administration, the Secretary of Finance and other senior officials of the Hong Kong government, while on the right were Li Guangyu, Henry Keswick, Stick Sutherland, Wooden Shihuai,
Li Ka-shing, Li Zhaoji, Pao Yugang, Zheng Yutong, Michael Kadoorie and others.
Wei Yixin said: "Thank you for your support for my work in the past two years. Xiangjiang has achieved rapid development in the past two years. Our per capita GDP in Xiangjiang exceeded 11,000 US dollars last year, which is also among the forefront in the world. I also sincerely I wish Xiangjiang can maintain its current development trend in the future, so that it can truly compete with New York and London."
Wei Yixin has lived in Xiangjiang for a long time since the 1970s. He has witnessed the economic development of Xiangjiang over the years. He is also very aware of the potential of Xiangjiang, especially after Xiangjiang has suppressed housing prices, Xiangjiang's future is unlimited.
With so many universities gathered here, coupled with the support and investment of the Li Group and its allies, Xiangjiang's scientific research strength will be significantly improved, and Xiangjiang's economy will not be overly dependent on one industry.
Li Guangyu said: "Thank you very much Sir for your support to the development of our Xiangjiang enterprises in the past two years. I believe that the citizens of Xiangjiang will not forget your great contribution to Xiangjiang in the past two years."
At today's dinner, everyone spoke kind words and wished Wei Yixin a smooth career after returning to the headquarters.
Although some people felt that Wei Yixin was not generous enough and only took care of the Li Group and its allies, they did not mention it at such a party.
For example, Henry Keswick is quite depressed. His Jardine Land is a British capital, and its registered address is now in Bermuda.
As a result, the Li family consortium and its allies were taken care of this time when the industry was converted into commerce, and they, Jardine He, did not get any benefits.
Now in Xiangjiang, the influence of their British capital is getting weaker and weaker, and the light they once had has long gone. Not to mention compared to Li Guangyu, even compared to the ten major families behind Xiangjiang Bank, they cannot compare.
In just ten years, in 1978, they were able to force Li Ka-shing to give up the acquisition of Wharf. Now it is good that they can hold on to their current industry. Not to mention causing trouble for the Chinese-owned families, they Thank God if I don't cause trouble for myself.
Wei Yixin said aloud: "The development of Hong Kong cannot be separated from everyone's joint efforts, and Hong Kong's economy cannot be separated from any force. I also hope that everyone will not distinguish too much between British capital and Chinese capital. I hope that everyone can Cooperate with each other, develop together, and promote Hong Kong’s economy to continuously move forward.”
Wei Yixin is very aware of the situation of Hong Kong British Capital. If John Major comes to support Xiangjiang British Capital, it will inevitably trigger another battle between Chinese capital and British capital.
Times have long since changed, and British capital in Xiangjiang is already a thing of the past. It has no strength to compete with Chinese capital. Once John Major takes sides, British capital in Xiangjiang is likely to be completely wiped out by Chinese capital.
Now that companies such as Jardine Matheson and Taikoo exist, it's not that Chinese capital doesn't have the strength to eat them up, it's just that Li Guangyu and others don't want to eat them up. The existence of these companies also has certain benefits for Li Guangyu and others.
Wei Yixin hopes that all capitals in Hong Kong can unite and cooperate, so that British capital in Hong Kong can develop and grow.
Wooden Swire said: "We at Swire have been strengthening cooperation with all parties over the years, and the current development is pretty good. In the future, we will continue to promote Swire and Hengyu Supermarket Group, Wheelock Group, Jiuhua Hotel Group, etc. Business cooperation.”
As the helmsman of Swire Group, their development over the years is also very gratifying thanks to the support of the Li Group. You must know that the largest shareholder of Swire Group is Li Guangyu. Their Swire Group only holds the largest voting rights in Swire Group.
That's all.
This is why the cooperation between Swire Pacific and the Lee Group is quite close, allowing Swire to develop rapidly.
Although Cathay Pacific and Heung Kong Aircraft Engineering Company are missing, the market value of Swire Holdings is still nearly double that of its peak in 1981. The current market value has reached 23.6 billion Hong Kong dollars. The Swire family is relatively optimistic about the current situation.
Satisfied.
Subsequently, many family leaders expressed their willingness to strengthen cooperation between the two parties. It is unclear whether they are sincere or superficial.
