Due to some reasons from the Bryan administration, the general election of the Hong Kong Business Youth Association was postponed to 3 pm on the 12th.
Today's meeting was of a high standard. All unofficial members of the Executive and Legislative Bureaus were invited. At the same time, Brian, Kersos, the new Financial Secretary Ross, and the Justice Secretary Merkel were also present in person.
Members of the Xiangjiang Youth Association, including Li Jianhui, Feng Yubin, Pan Disheng, Chen Zongxue, Wu Guangzheng, Liu Luanxiong, Cao Weide, Dong Jianhua, Zhao Shizeng, etc., all came to the conference hall.
Compared to many people, Li Jianhui is special. He is both a member of the association and an unofficial member of the Executive and Legislative Bureaus.
If you are younger, no one attending this meeting today is younger than him. Although he has been famous for a long time, it has only been two months since his twentieth birthday, and he is still eating on the 21st.
As the current president of the Hong Kong Business Youth Association, Li Jianhui came to the podium at the beginning of the meeting and said:
“Thank you very much for coming to attend the re-election of the Hong Kong Business Youth Association, and welcome Mr. Black, Mr. Kersos, Mr. Ross, Mr. Merk, and the members of the Executive and Legislative Councils of Hong Kong.
The young people in the Hong Kong business community represent the future of our economic development in Hong Kong. Our Hong Kong Business Youth Association is a platform to promote communication and cooperation among our young business elites.
From the time I became president in 1978 to now, I personally feel very ashamed. Except for necessary meetings, I rarely communicate with everyone and have not fulfilled my responsibilities as president well.
But what makes me happy is that during the three years since I served as president, many young elites have emerged in our Xiangjiang business, such as Mr. Pan Desheng, Mr. Liu Luanxiong, Mr. Wu Guangzheng, Mr. Dong Jianhua, etc.
In order for the Hong Kong Business Youth Association to better serve the economic development of Hong Kong in the future, I announce my permanent withdrawal from the election of the association’s management.”
Those present were not surprised when Li Jianhui announced his withdrawal from the election. They had expected it since the Hong Kong media began to significantly reduce Li Jianhui's coverage.
After Li Jianhui stepped down, Brian specially came to the stage to give a speech, focusing on the responsibilities of the Hong Kong Youth Chamber of Commerce.
At the same time, some people were also highlighted. It was precisely because of these people that the general election of the association was postponed.
Unlike the current Business Youth Association led by Li Jianhui, the new Business Youth Association must shoulder political responsibilities.
To put it simply, the Bryan administration is planning to let the new management of the Business Youth Association serve as pawns and ask them to go to the north to speak out about the demands of Hong Kong elites in order to put pressure on the north.
Of course, this demand is only one recognized by the Bryan government and does not represent the Hong Kong business community.
Everyone knows that the management of the Xiangjiang Business Youth Association is a trap this time. Not only did Li Jianhui withdraw from the election this time, Pan Disheng, Chen Zongxue, Feng Yubin and others who originally planned to participate in the election also did not participate.
Even though Liu wanted to be in the limelight, he chose to avoid it this time. He was just going to quietly be an ordinary member and wait until the next election to see the situation.
Because the Brian government communicated with all parties in advance, and the major families did not want their own personnel to get involved, the election went smoothly.
Several people highlighted by the Bryan administration were successfully elected. Li Pengfei became the new president of the Business Youth Association and a new youth leader in the Hong Kong business community.
As for these unofficial members of the Executive and Legislative Bureaus who are watching from the sidelines, they were brought over by the Bryan administration to give Li Pengfei and others a boost. It can be claimed to the outside world that Li Pengfei not only has the support of the young people in the business community in Hong Kong, but also the support of the older generation.
.
Even though Li Pengfei's previous reputation in Hong Kong was far from comparable to that of Li Jianhui and others, he could still be called a young leader in the business community in Hong Kong.
As the newly elected president, Li Pengfei said with excitement at the podium: "First of all, I would like to thank Mr. Li Jianhui for his contribution to the association in the past three years. Because of Mr. Li Jianhui, our Hong Kong Business Youth Association has attracted widespread attention, and it was also under Mr. Li Jianhui's leadership that we
Under the leadership, our Xiangjiang enterprise has gone global in the past three years.
As the new president, I will take active actions to strive for a better development environment for our business community in Hong Kong.
Everyone is well aware of the current situation in Xiangjiang. The property and stock markets have both fallen towards underestimation. The confidence of Xiangjiang citizens has been severely damaged, and pessimism continues to spread.
In order to solve the problem from the root, and for the sake of the economic and social stability of Hong Kong, I will organize a youth delegation from the Hong Kong business community to go to the north to communicate with the top management and ensure that our current development model does not change as much as possible.
I also hope that members who have contributed to the stable economic development of Hong Kong will take the initiative to join the delegation and go together early next month to talk about the demands of our business community in Hong Kong."
Unfortunately, most of the people present were unwilling to fall into this trap, so very few responded to Li Pengfei.
In order to prevent the situation from becoming dull, representatives of the British-funded consortium spoke out one after another to express their support for Li Pengfei, including Shen Bi, Nubigian, Shi Huaiya and others.
After the meeting adjourned, Li Guobao and Lei Juekun, both unofficial members, did not take their own cars, but got into Li Jianhui's car together.
As the car drove towards Xinhui Hotel, both Li Guobao and Lei Juekun in the car looked solemn.
Seeing this, Li Jianhui said: "Don't be nervous, there will definitely be disturbances, but the main tone will not change. Even though Brian created such a big momentum for Li Pengfei, it will not have any effect in the end.
Now we just have to be careful with the stock market, and with banks, housing prices are expected to plummet again."
Listening to Li Jianhui's words, Lei Juekun and Li Guobao felt chills in their hearts. Now that house prices have fallen badly enough, if there is another wave, they are afraid that the average price will fall below 500 Hong Kong dollars per square foot, and it will fall in less than a year.
Halfway through, large-scale supply cuts will hit major banks.
Thanks to Li Jianhui's reminder, their real estate properties have successfully avoided this crisis, otherwise the family would have shed its skin this time.
Li Guobao hoped in his heart that the bank would not suffer a run this time, otherwise he would seek rescue from Li Jianhui.
"Jianhui, the current situation has become increasingly tense. Not to mention the middle class, even I am a little panicked and I don't know when it will be settled."
"Uncle Lei, don't be too anxious. It is estimated that it will only last three or four years at most. By then, the horse will still be running and dancing, and the management may be changed, but it will not make much difference to us."
Although Li Jianhui was confident, Li Guobao and Lei Juekun still felt a little guilty. After all, the economic system there was completely different from that of Xiangjiang.
But the two of them knew very well that this matter could only be a game between the two major powers, and the only thing they could do was to wait for the results to be released, and then decide on the future development path.
However, in order to have an escape route in the future, the two secretly decided to expand the development of the Baodao market and also enter the Southeast Asian market.
