Li Jianhui rarely came to the capital, so he seemed to be quite busy, and for some reasons he even added it to the schedule.
Just after meeting with senior officials of the two ministries and commissions in the afternoon, Li Jianhui and the members of the Donghua Association welcomed the senior officials of Fujian Province.
Seriously speaking, Tung Wah Hui Xiangjiang members do not pay much attention to the Fujian market and do not invest much there. Except for the Xinjian Department’s investments in airports and ports, Tung Wah Hui Baodao member companies mainly have operations in Ludao Special Economic Zone.
Not a small investment.
The top leaders of Fujian Province also knew that Li Jianhui and others were very busy these days and that time was very precious. After the meeting between the two parties, they were not polite.
After briefly introducing the development of Ludao Special Economic Zone during this period, as well as the expansion of Ludao Airport and Ludao Port, we got to the point.
Cross-strait air traffic and trade have been open for half a year, and the development pattern is very gratifying. Guangdong provincial leaders hope that Xiangjiang Airlines can increase flights from Taoyuan to Ludao to further facilitate cross-strait exchanges.
In response to this, Li Jianhui said: "Our senior management at Xiangjiang Airlines has been paying close attention to the changes in passenger flow on the Taoyuan-Ludao route. As far as I know, during holidays, in addition to the normal one flight per day, there will be an additional flight.
, to meet the needs of cross-strait exchanges.
In the future, Xiangjiang Airlines will gradually increase the number of flights based on changes in passenger traffic. I believe that the Ludao-Taoyuan route will be one of the busiest routes in the world in the future."
When it comes to investment, Tung Wah Hui Xiangjiang Enterprises currently has no plans to increase investment in the mainland, especially as the tax rate for domestic sales of products is about to be increased.
Even if Tung Wah Club plans to invest and expand its production base here, it will have to wait until the new tax rate is released in January next year.

Meeting with high-level officials from Guangdong Province is just a sideshow, tonight is the highlight.
None of the Xiangjiang representatives sitting here are unknowns. They include business elites such as Li Jianhui and cultural celebrities such as Jin Yong.
"Don't feel restrained. I specially meet you tonight because I just want to have an open-minded chat with you.
It has been too long since Xiangjiang left the embrace of the motherland. Many of us have never been to Xiangjiang. We have only heard about the situation in Xiangjiang. Our real situation and understanding of Xiangjiang are far from comparable to yours.
Now that the joint declaration has been signed, Hong Kong will return to the embrace of the motherland on July 1, 1997. Hong Kong's economic development system will still use the current system, and we are not as proficient in this aspect as you.
How Xiangjiang develops in the future requires your active input and suggestions, so that we can jointly push the development of Xiangjiang to a higher level."
Although Li Jianhui is very young, as a veritable business leader in Xiangjiang, and the number of seats tonight puts him at the top of the list of people in Xiangjiang.
Therefore, after the chief minister finished speaking, he immediately responded in Southwest Mandarin: "Thank you to the central government for its care and love for the more than six million citizens of Hong Kong, and also to the central government for its understanding and support of our business community.
I also firmly believe that under the system of one country, two systems, Hong Kong will be more prosperous in the future. With the support of the motherland, Hong Kong’s status in the world will be greatly improved, especially its financial status. New York Port will no longer be a slogan.
We in the business community in Hong Kong have always had a consensus, that is, businessmen should be responsible businessmen and not interfere with the political system.
Regarding the future development policy of Xiangjiang, I believe that the central government and the government after the return will definitely formulate a policy that is conducive to the long-term stability and development of Xiangjiang."
Few people present believed what Li Jianhui said. All information channels knew that the most restless person in the business community in Hong Kong was Li Jianhui. The strength and business scope of his political and economic research laboratory and security company far exceeded that of a businessman.
limit.
The chief did not affirm or deny this, but asked the charter boat king and others to express their opinions.
While Li Jianhui only said good things, the chartering king also raised many concerns of the Hong Kong business community.
"Chief, due to some historical reasons, even though the mainland has been accelerating reform and opening up in recent years, some business leaders are still worried about what happened in the past happening again.
A strong person is prepared with multiple hands and bets in multiple directions.
The weaker ones can only choose to relocate their industries overseas. For some reasons, many companies have chosen to go to Johor Bahru, Cebu, Rayong, Bandung and other places."
When the chartering king mentioned this, the chief took a special look at Li Jianhui.
Many people later expressed their opinions, but most of them were like Li Jianhui. They only picked the good ones and said they believed that the central government and the government would be better in the future.
After everyone's words fell, the chief said with a smile: "It seems that my identity has made everyone worried, and they are not willing to speak out their true inner thoughts.
However, I believe that as time goes by, everyone will be able to see our determination to promote the healthy and stable development of Xiangjiang, and the return of Xiangjiang will be the beginning of another take-off.
As for the concerns Mr. Bao mentioned, I think it is completely unnecessary. History cannot repeat itself. Our reform and opening up will only continue to move forward, and there is absolutely no reason to retreat.
I have always firmly believed that as descendants of the Yan and Huang Dynasties, we all love the motherland. As our mutual understanding deepens, we will understand that there is no such thing as three holes, only here is our root.
Only when the motherland is strong can our external assets be protected. Over the past hundreds of years, the history of blood and tears of overseas Chinese is clearly visible, and I believe you will not be unaware of it.
If we want to improve our nation's status in the world, it is not enough to rely on one person and one company. This requires the unity and struggle of our entire nation. Only in this way can the anti-Chinese incidents and even anti-Chinese bills that have occurred in some countries be eliminated.
appearing again.
…”
It would be impossible for Li Jianhui not to answer the call at this time. Although he did not name anyone by name, he was the typical representative in the matter.
After sorting out his thoughts, he immediately spoke: "I was deeply touched by the chief's shocking words. I also believe that today's words will surely make those who are uncertain and have cunning ideas make a new choice.
Our Xinjian Group and its affiliated companies have always taken the markets of the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and the three places as the core development market and the motherland market as our root, because we understand that only the motherland market can become a solid backing for our enterprises.
In the future, we will continue to expand our markets on both sides of the Taiwan Strait and three places to consolidate the foundation of our company. Only in this way can our company have the strength to compete with multinational giants in the international market.
And I also sincerely hope that our Hong Kong companies will set an example when entering the mainland market, and don’t just think about making quick money, but invest more in infrastructure projects, such as highways, airports, ports, bridges, etc. Although the investment scale of these projects is large and the returns are
Rate recovery is slow.
However, these projects can promote the rapid development of the local economy and can also help improve the comprehensive strength of the country and the nation."
