Although Li Jianhui's arrival triggered a lot of butterfly effects, some facts are still developing along the established trajectory, especially when it comes to the game between the two major powers.
Li Jianhui, who was in San Jose, fell silent for a moment while listening to Guan Jiahui's report on the news about Xiangjiang in recent days.
The former British Prime Minister went to the capital after the Hong Kong-ASEAN Economic Cooperation Forum, but unfortunately got a bad start there, which also revealed that the differences between the two countries are quite large.
Because the news was relatively sensitive for Xiangjiang, and the British side obviously had no intention of concealing this aspect, it caused quite a stir in Xiangjiang.
Some families who were not very determined in their hearts have also accelerated the pace of overseas investment. Some real estate companies that were originally prepared to stick to the Hong Kong market also chose to go to Baodao and ASEAN markets under this pressure.
Seeing that Li Jianhui did not say anything, Guan Jiahui spoke up again: "According to the news from the assistant's office, the Bryan government, Jardine Matheson, Swire, HSBC, etc. may make big moves recently. There are rumors that HSBC's headquarters may be moved to London."
Li Jianhui is still aware of some of the developments of HSBC in his previous life. This financial group, whose main business is in Asia, was headquartered in Hong Kong until the early 1990s, and later moved its headquarters to London. However, he did not expect to be affected by his butterfly effect in this life.
The impact was so far ahead of schedule.
"You inform Huang Guangxing and ask him to ignore the influence of the outside world. The sky will not fall yet. Continue to develop according to the strategic plan we have planned. After these few years, Xiangjiang's economy will definitely take off again."
Originally, Guan Jiahui wanted to mention her inner thoughts, but after hearing Li Jianhui's words, she had no intention of speaking.
She didn't know where Li Jianhui got such confidence that Hong Kong's economic system would not change in the future, and she didn't understand why Li Jianhui firmly believed that the future development of the Xin Jian Department in Hong Kong would not be greatly affected.
In her opinion, Xinjian Department should now fully shrink its industries in Xiangjiang and use limited funds in the ASEAN market. This way, even if there are any changes in the future, Xinjian Department's losses can be reduced.
After Guan Jiahui left, Li Jianhui looked at the documents sent from the assistant office in Xiangjiang and had a lot of thoughts for a while.
Today's Hong Kong can no longer be viewed in the memory of the past life. With the introduction of a series of policies by the Bryan government, it is very different from the Hong Kong in memory.
After Li Guobao applied to establish East Asia University, Zheng Yutong also joined hands with Lin Baixin, Cao Wenjin and others to apply to establish New Asia University. Swire also joined hands with the Kadoorie family to apply to establish Far Eastern University, and Stanley Ho, Li Chaoren and Chen Zengxi jointly applied to establish Nanjiang University.
The Bryan government also accepts all comers. Applications from these schools can be described as being approved in seconds. If you apply on the same day, you will receive government permission directly on the same day. Each school is qualified to issue undergraduate degree certificates, and can obtain Commonwealth
Recognition.
This also brings the number of universities in Hong Kong that issue undergraduate and above degrees to 20. Four years ago, only Xiangjiang University and the Chinese University of Hong Kong had this qualification. The number has increased tenfold in a short period of time.
According to the Bryan government plan, this has only reached 2/3 of the goal, and there are still ten university places that are waiting for vacant seats. As long as qualified companies and individuals apply, they can get a school building permit.
The Commonwealth has also opened the door to facilitate this. Regardless of the quality of these universities, as long as these universities are established, the academic qualifications of these universities will be recognized. This is an extremely rare thing.
The Immigration Department is also resolutely implementing Brian's will. In the past month, the number of people settling in Xiangjiang has reached nearly 30,000, which is nearly four times the same period last year.
As many universities expand the number of international students in mainland China, Taiwan and ASEAN this year, the data in the second half of the year is likely to continue to rise.
He doesn't know about other universities, but he only has five universities under his own umbrella that are already in use and will be put into use in September: Xiangjiang Film and Television University, Xinjian University, Xiangjiang Aviation College, Xiangjiang University of Finance and Economics, and Xiangjiang College of Architectural Engineering. They have a master plan for this year's freshman year.
The enrollment is 23,000. Due to the increase in Xiangjiang University and the small number of local students, 40% of the enrollment will be international students.
If this development continues, especially if the 50-hectare land sales limit in the joint statement is introduced in the future, not only will housing prices skyrocket, but more conflicts will also arise.
Li Jianhui is also conflicted in his heart. He hopes to make some changes in the development of Hong Kong through his own efforts, but does not want to fall into the whirlpool of the political system, let alone sacrifice the interests of himself and his allies.
Although Xiangjiang's economic development has been better in recent years because of his arrival than in the previous life, because he entered the semiconductor industry and avoided the same situation in Xiangjiang's manufacturing industry as in the previous life.
But it has also brought about some negative impacts, especially on the political system, and conflicts may become more acute on some issues.
Fortunately, after several years of experience, Li Jianhui is no longer a passionate young man. Even though he knew that if he continued like this, Xiangjiang would go into the unknown, he still did not change his plan.
In order to provide a stable living environment for himself and his family, and to be able to take the initiative, he cannot allow the development of history to follow the trajectory of his previous life. The established development strategy must still be implemented unswervingly.
.
This trip to Vienna will be another important move for him. This is the starting point for another wing of the Xinjian Department and even the Donghua Society to take off.
Various legends from the past life and the exaggerated Ten Thousand Towers Plan all point to the huge wealth during that drastic change.
Whether it is for the market in Central and Eastern Europe or for the huge wealth, Li Jianhui has to get involved.
The most important thing now is to lay the foundation in the neutral country of Austria. Once the internal policies of the giant change, the Xinjian system can enter first and harvest wealth through trade.
At 9:30 pm that day, Los Angeles time, Li Jianhui, Guan Jiahui and others took off from San Jose International Airport on a special plane and headed for Paris.
At this time, Xiangjiang was very lively. Even though it was only two o'clock in the afternoon, people were already drinking and drinking in the banquet hall of Xianghua Hotel.
Almost all representatives of well-known Chinese families in Xiangjiang attended the banquet hosted by the Charter King. Even Li Chaoren, Chen Zengxi, Stanley Ho, Luo Yingshi and others from Nanjiang Club were also present in person.
"Mrs. Li, I wonder when Mr. Li Jianhui will return to Xiangjiang?"
Facing the inquiry from the Charter King, Chen Yulian said: "Thank you Mr. Bao for your concern for Jianhui. Due to the many things under the Xinjian Group, Jianhui has to travel around. As for when he will come back, I don't know.
If Mr. Bao has anything to do with Jianhui, you can tell me. I can make the decision within a certain range. If it is really impossible for me to make the decision, I will also pass it on to Jianhui and give you an answer as soon as possible."
