The Wealth Empire Crossing the Hong Kong

Chapter 160
"According to your ideas, that is to say, the Tsuen Wan-Yuen Long road plan will be dropped for the time being."

Wu Jiankun said with a wry smile: "Li Sheng, this is the best way for our Xinjian Department. Before we do government work, it is inappropriate for us to make some redundant actions.

You must know that no government is willing to see a force that manipulates public opinion at will and uses public opinion to force the government to make concessions in the territory it manages.

Once we do this, we will inevitably be blacklisted by various governments, which is extremely detrimental to our future development. "

At present, although the Xinjian Department has enough wealth, its relations with various parties and its influence in the government are still a bit weak. This is also the biggest shortcoming of the Xinjian Department.

Now the Xinjian Department can only be called an industrial group, but not a consortium. The main reason is that there is only money and no group.

At present, the MacLehose government still controls Xiangjiang very strictly. Whether it is the Legislative Council or the Executive Council, the members are mainly British. Even if there are a few Chinese, it will not play a big role.

Even if Li Jianhui is not satisfied in his heart, he can only accept the suggestions of the elites in the Intelligence and Governance Office, and prevent Jiayi Group from fanning the flames.

But he obviously didn't want to let it go so easily. MacLehose made him feel bad, and he wanted to make MacLehose feel bad.

"I will give you an additional [-] million Hong Kong dollars in special funds, mainly for the public relations of the British government and the Conservative Party. If necessary, you can contact Zhou Pengfei and let the Blue Maple Investment Company Purple Maple Fund make them rich.

The main task is to let this MacLehose, who is obviously hostile to us, leave Xiangjiang, and help Xia Dingji as much as possible. Even if it doesn't work, Xia Dingji can serve as acting governor for a period of time. "

The people present were very happy. Because the funds of the Xinjian Department were relatively tight, the budget for the Intelligence and Governance Office this year was not much. Now that they have [-] million yuan, they can finally make them a little richer.

As for Li Jianhui's request, they have been doing it for Yinglun before, and now they are just in-depth development.

Not all the nobles in England are rich, and there are not a few of them who are poor. Not all of the councilors regard money as dung, and they can make them speak for the Xinjian Department by luring them.

……

Many things did not develop as Li Jianhui wanted. He never thought of forcing MacLehose to make concessions in the name of the Yuen Long area, but the topic has already been brought up.

Without him fanning the flames, the citizens of Yuen Long took action spontaneously, asking the government to come up with a planning timetable for the Tsuen Wan-Yuen Long Highway to promote the development of the Yuen Long area.

In addition, petitions were gathered outside the Hong Kong Transport Department, the Environmental Protection Division of the Administrative Department, and the Governor's Mansion, hoping that the project will start construction as soon as possible.

Listening to Zhou Jiayi's report, Li Jianhui just told Xia Dingji that this matter had nothing to do with him, and then waited for the matter to ferment, so he wanted to see how it would end.

In MacLehose's office, Chief Executive Xia Dingji, Police Commissioner De Kern, and MI[-] Xiangjiang Director Stand all looked worried.

Looking at these people, MacLehose, who was already angry, kept getting angry. I remember that the last time he petitioned outside him was when Jiayi was liquidated last year.

That is only caused by the bankruptcy of the poor management of the enterprise, and it will not have much negative impact.

But this time the nature is completely different, if one is not handled well, it will have a huge negative impact on him.

I controlled my emotions a little bit, and said to Stand: "You have been paying close attention to Li Jianhui and the Xin Jian Department. Now tell me, is there any Xin Jian Department manipulating here?"

"According to reports from our staff in the Xinjian Department, Li Jianhui has not made any moves in the past two days, and according to rumors, the Xinjian Department has temporarily given up on continuing to expand in Xiangjiang and is preparing to develop the markets of Baodao and New Malaysia and Thailand.

Xinjian Department headed by Wei Li, including Wang Haichuan, executive vice president of Huihong Group, Xue Yiyang, general manager of Xinjian Bank, vice president of Xinjian Group, Gan Qinglin, vice president of Wheelock Land Group, etc., have already flown to Taipei this morning. "

Hearing that there was no Xinjian department participating this time, MacLehose finally felt better. He didn't want to completely tear himself apart with Li Jianhui.

He turned his head and asked De Kern, the chief of the police department. He didn't believe that these people did it spontaneously this time, and there must be forces behind it.

He doesn't care whether it's the British-funded seniors who want to kill with a knife, or the interests behind Yuen Long are manipulating, if he finds out who is instigating, he will make the other party pay a heavy price.

"According to our inquiries with the petitioners, we have not found any forces operating behind the scenes. These people are villagers from various villages in Yuen Long, and many of them work in urban areas.

They expect that after the road is opened to traffic, it will be more convenient for them to go to work and go home, and they don't even need to rent a house in the urban area. "

MacLehose was obviously not satisfied with such a response. He said angrily, "Are you sure you received the report? Are you kidding me? No one is planning behind the scenes. How could these people come to the Governor's Mansion and the Administration at the same time today?" outside the Department of Transport?"

Dekern handed the information in front of MacLehose, and said: "This is the detailed report of our police investigation. I checked with several deputy directors. There is indeed no evidence that this time There are forces operating behind the scenes."

MacLehose took the documents and began to look through them in detail. It seemed to be the case, but he always felt that something was wrong. He always felt that the report was too perfect.

Taking a serious look at Dekern, seeing that the other party didn't dodge his eyes or feel guilty, he let go of his suspicions and asked Xia Dingji's opinion on the current situation.

"Currently there is a lot of public opinion about Tsuen Wan passing through the Tai Lam Tunnel to Yuen Long Highway, especially the major media in Hong Kong, who are very concerned about it.

Now the longer we delay, the worse it will be for us. The London side requires us to maintain the stability of Hong Kong as much as possible. I believe that side absolutely does not want to see such a situation happen frequently.

My personal suggestion is to fix this road, the opening time can be extended, and the tunnel construction does not have to cooperate with the Xinjian Department, it can be built by our government or British-funded enterprises. "

MacLehose fell into deep thought. He found that this assistant who had been his for nearly eight years did not seem to be on the same line as him.

Perhaps from Xia Dingji's standpoint, economic development is the top priority, and he doesn't care whether the Xinjian Department is huge or not. As long as the Xinjian Department can stimulate the economic development of Xiangjiang, even if it forms a monopoly, Xia Dingji will support it.

As the chief executive officer, Xia Dingji's main achievement is the economic development of Xiangjiang. The better the economy here, the greater the chance of being transferred back to the London government.
