Li Jianhui originally thought that this was the end of the night, and everyone would go back to their homes after the banquet. Unexpectedly, when he was about to leave, Huo Yingdong found him personally, hoping to talk to him alone.
Even though the big boss spoke, Li Jianhui couldn't disgrace him, so he followed Huo Yingdong to his study.
Looking at the young Li Jianhui, Huo Yingdong thought about Mr. Liao's request, and he felt a surge of emotion in his heart.
In the minds of the mainland's top executives, the importance of the person in front of him even surpassed that of Li Chaoren and others, and was just a little lower than him and the chartering king.
It wouldn't matter if this person was just a self-made billionaire, but the fact that he is under 17 and has lived in Tiu Keng Leng since he was a child makes his importance rise several levels directly.
The mainland takes back Xiangjiang in the hope that Xiangjiang can continue to prosper and develop, and this requires a stable social environment.
In this case, it is particularly important to gain recognition and support from all walks of life, especially those influential elites.
Li Jianhui is one of the most influential people in Hong Kong. Whether he recognizes the mainland in his heart and is willing to support it is extremely important to Mr. Liao and his team's next work.
Today, Huo Yingdong invited Li Jianhui to the study alone, just to test Li Jianhui's inner thoughts.
Huo Yingdong seemed very friendly. He said with a slight smile: "Li Sheng, I wonder what you think of Mr. Liao's words tonight?"
"The return of Hong Kong is the common wish of all Chinese people, and so am I. I strongly support the mainland in taking back Hong Kong, and I am willing to work with everyone to maintain the stability of Hong Kong."
Regarding Li Jianhui's somewhat official response, it was difficult for Huo Yingdong to judge whether he had what he felt in his heart.
He then spoke up: "I know that Li Sheng has lived in Tiu Keng Ling since he was a child. Because of the environment there, you may have some misunderstandings about us and even the mainland.
I hope you can actually see and learn more about the mainland, instead of just listening to the propaganda.
In 1949, things had already changed. The motherland of our descendants of Yan and Huang will only be a country established by the mainland government. Only when the mainland is strong can we stand upright in the world."
Li Jianhui was speechless. He didn't seem to have done anything to stand against the mainland, nor did he want to stand on the side of Baodao. Why did this person feel that he didn't really support it?
In fact, Li Jianhui overlooked something. The people living in Tiu Keng Ling were naturally close to Treasure Island because of their education.
Moreover, since the 1950s, there have been constant battles between Tiu Keng Ling and the leftists in Heung Kong, which has led to most people in Tiu Keng Ling having other ideas.
This guy came through time and absorbed the memory of the original owner, but he only remembered some important things, and many of them have been selectively forgotten.
In addition, they are mainly based on thoughts from time travel, so they naturally have different views on many things.
He responded with a smile: "Please tell Huo Sheng that I, Li Jianhui, may be a little selfish, but I will never do anything that is sorry for the country or the nation.
As for the mainland, I will go back in the future. My father's ashes have not been buried yet, so I will personally send him home."
Huo Yingdong and others have already conducted an investigation into Li Jianhui's family situation, and they also know something about his father Li Minglin's situation.
Although this person ended up living in Xiangjiang due to his different stance, he was also worthy of the nation. When the mountains and rivers were broken, they were the ones who protected the nation and the country on the battlefield.
When Xiangjiang died, what he could not forget was the land where he was born and raised, and the home he wanted to return to.
If they hadn't found out where Li Minglin was from and whether Li Minglin's relatives in his hometown were still alive, they would have played the emotional card with Li Jianhui this time.
"It is a blessing for our country and nation that Li Sheng has such an idea. The future of Xiangjiang still needs to be supported by your generation. The future prosperity of Xiangjiang lies in the stability of Xiangjiang society.
As for returning to the Mainland, you don’t need to have any scruples. You and your family will have all freedoms in the Mainland, and no special treatment or restrictions will be imposed on you.
It is not a problem for Mr. Li Minglin to be sent back to his hometown for burial. As an anti-Japanese hero, he should be respected by the descendants of Yan and Huang."
Li Jianhui was only two years old when his father passed away and did not have much memory at all, but Liu Xiaojuan often talked about it and made him aware that his father had never forgotten his hometown, especially Li Jianhui's grandparents and two aunts.
However, Li Jianhui has no intention of revealing his father's specific home address for the time being. He plans to return to the mainland with his siblings, Liu Xiaojuan and Chen Xinyi next year.
At that time, the curtain of reform and opening up had begun, some ideas had changed, and the family could feel more at ease when returning.
Since the relationship between the two was not deep, they only talked about some important issues in one sentence. Li Jianhui was unwilling to express his own opinions due to his youth.
So many attempts failed, and it was impossible to figure out Li Jianhui's character and thoughts.
After seeing off Li Jianhui, Huo Yingdong came to the side hall and communicated with Mr. Liao about communicating with Li Jianhui.
"As for Li Jianhui, I personally think that he still loves the country and the nation very much. On the issue of Hong Kong's return, I think his support is very credible.
However, due to various reasons, this person pays more attention to actual interests, so just talking about dedication may not work for him.
In addition, you should pay special attention to the fact that his master and future father-in-law is Chen Zhiyong, who has a great influence on him."
Mr. Liao listened very carefully and was constantly thinking about how to make Li Jianhui truly agree with them.
Because of some radical practices in the past, the Tiu Keng Ling people have always had a thorn in their hearts. If this thorn cannot be pulled out, it will be very difficult to win the support of the Tiu Keng Ling people.
Li Jianhui's performance today is very flattering. They also believe that Li Jianhui loves the country and the nation, but patriotism is patriotism, and some things cannot be confused.
Mr. Liao asked solemnly: "Huo Sheng, how do you think the Diaojing Ridge problem should be solved?"
Huo Yingdong doesn't know what to do about this problem. This is a problem that has accumulated over decades. The Xiangjiang government has not changed the current situation of Tiu Keng Ling, and they don't have much solution.
Just not changing is not enough, especially after the rise of Li Jianhui, his influence is likely to spread the thoughts of Tiu Keng Ling to the entire Hong Kong.
If that happens, it will be a disaster for Xiangjiang and will greatly affect the stability of Xiangjiang.
Huo Yingdong thought for a while, but he really couldn't think of a good way, so he could only say: "To solve the problem of Diao Keng Ling, the first way is to break the current way of life in Diao Keng Ling.
In this regard, Li Jianhui is the most likely candidate in the short term. He has established Fai Hung Industrial Park in Tseung Kwan O, and it is said that he will give priority to recruiting Tiu Keng Ling personnel.
As long as the people in Tiu Keng Ling continue to move out and let their children live and study outside Tiu Keng Ling since childhood, their ideological outlook will no longer be brainwashed like the children of Tiu Keng Ling.
As the number of people in Tiu Keng Ling continues to decrease, the current situation and influence in this area will gradually disappear."
When Mr. Liao heard that this was about Li Jianhui again, he knew that he would pay more attention to this young man in the future.
Maintaining the stability of Xiangjiang is his job and his responsibility. He does not want to cause major impact and losses to Xiangjiang due to his negligence.
