Through the wealth life

Chapter 357
During the two days of the weekend, many listed companies released their financial reports for the past six months. Thanks to the rapid rise in the property market, the financial performance of the major companies is quite good, which once again strengthened the public's confidence in the stock market.

On Monday, as soon as the Xiangjiang stock market opened, various stocks ushered in a relatively high increase, which drove the Hang Seng Index to also rise rapidly.

Countless stockholders are excited about this wave of rise. Among them, the British consortium headed by Newbigan even held a small celebration reception for the rise of the group's stock market. I don't know if it is deliberately to see Li Guangyu's current mood. , and deliberately sent an invitation letter to Li Guangyu.

On the evening of Wednesday (July 7th), Li Guangyu and Cao Weiqing came to the Peninsula Hotel to attend the reception held by Newbigan.

Newbigan has been very happy for more than a month. The continuous rise of the stock market this time not only made Jardine Matheson a lot of profits, but also avenged last year.It was because of Li Guangyu last year that the Jardine Group lost Heungkong Telephone Group and Wharf Group one after another, which greatly affected their influence in Heungkong.

Seeing Li Guangyu and Cao Weiqing coming to the banquet hall, New Bijian immediately walked over and said with a smile on his face, "Mr. Li, you and your wife are welcome."

Li Guangyu said: "Mr. Niu Bijian, you are welcome. I still have time to attend your invitation."

In their hearts, the two hope that the other party's group will go bankrupt, but on the surface they are both very gentlemen, and there is no hostility, and they greet each other like old friends.

This time Newbikin did not invite too many people to attend the celebration reception. Apart from some of the helmsmen they cooperated with, they invited MacLehose, Li Guangyu, Pao Yugang, Li Ka-shing and Chen Zengxi.

Except for MacLehose, these few others are their opponents, and they are all figures who have caused their British consortium to suffer. Even if New Bijian wished to bankrupt all their groups, but for those who can These Chinese elites who let themselves and others suffer are still very admired.

Newbigan has the pride of the British. Groups that cannot compete with their British-funded consortium cannot be seen by others. Only groups like Li Guangyu who pose a serious threat to their British-funded consortium can be respected by their British-funded consortium. joint treatment.For this opponent, even if it is only a Chinese, Niu Bijian and others still admire his ability very much.

If it wasn't for Li Guangyu's reasons this time, he wouldn't have specially held such a reception.When the stock market was rising rapidly, he, Shen Bi and others wanted to see how Li Guangyu was feeling and whether he was flustered by it.

It's just that from the greetings with Li Guangyu just now, Niu Bijian didn't feel that Li Guangyu's mood was affected by the factors of the stock market rise, and he was still so calm.

Niu Bijian doesn't quite understand why Li Guangyu is so calm. It's an order of 500 billion Hong Kong dollars. If it rises a little every day, it will be a huge loss. Does the Li Group not care about such losses at all? I can be so sure that Xiangjiang's stock market will plummet.

When MacLehose saw these tycoons, to be honest, except for Li Guangyu, he was not too impressed with them.All real estate developers are of little benefit to the development of Hong Kong's economy in the long run.

On the contrary, Li Guangyu did not vigorously develop the real estate industry in Xiangjiang. Instead, he built an industrial park in Tianshuiwei, which provided tens of thousands of jobs for Xiangjiang. made a huge contribution.

And these real estate developers will only take land and build buildings in relatively mature areas and earn high profits, which is not in line with his own policy philosophy.

As the governor of Xiangjiang, MacLehose is quite clear about some things. Although MacLehose doesn't know the exact amount of some of Li Guangyu's transactions in the stock market, according to his estimation, it is at least tens of billions.

And Li Guangyu's pessimism about Xiangjiang's stock market also surprised him. At present, Xiangjiang is showing a prosperous scene, but Li Guangyu is doing the opposite, pessimistic about Xiangjiang's economy.

As the governor of Xiangjiang, he is very familiar with the situation of Xiangjiang's economy. If there is no external force, it is impossible for Xiangjiang's economy to decline sharply in the short term.

As for where the external force came from, MacLehose already knew the answer. Sitting in this position, he still had the right to know some things.

At present, there are still secret discussions on the Xiangjiang issue between the local side and the mainland. The youth delegation from the Xiangjiang business community will also go north to the mainland to discuss the issue of exchanging sovereignty for governance rights. This will be the biggest factor affecting Xiangjiang.

MacLehose looked at Li Guangyu who was beside Li Ka-shing. Could it be that this young man was sure that the negotiations between England and the mainland would not succeed, so he dared to place such a heavy bet on the Hong Kong stock market.

Thinking of this, MacLehose said to Li Guangyu: "Mr. Li, you probably know about it. Some of the issues we have raised at present, you should know that the economic policies of the mainland and our side are different. In order to protect the rights and interests of Xiangjiang citizens, Our government and some elites have proposed some proposals, what do you think about that?"

Li Guangyu is very clear that these plans will not work, and the mainland will definitely take back Xiangjiang. This is an unshakable matter. No matter how some people in Yinglun and Xiangjiang lobby, the mainland will not agree to the exchange of sovereignty for governance proposed by Yinglun and Xiangjiang scheme.

Li Guangyu said: "Mr. MacLehose, these issues are not up to me. It depends on the negotiation between your government and the mainland. As a company in Xiangjiang, what we need is a stable business environment so that the economy of Xiangjiang It can continue to develop steadily.”

Niu Bijian said from the side: "Mr. Li, you don't have to worry too much. I believe our government will be able to maintain the stability of Xiangjiang, so that our enterprises can develop healthily and well."

Niu Bijian and others are quite confident in Yinglun. With Yinglun behind and Li Pengfei and others waving the flag in front, they believe that the mainland will agree with their policy and continue to maintain British rule over Xiangjiang.

Li Guangyu did not refute Niu Bijian's remarks, let them be happy for a few more days, and wait until the 17th to see what kind of expressions these confident people will have when they receive the news.

MacLehose's ruling career in Xiangjiang has also come to an end. With the arrival of the next Youde, he will not pay as much attention to the development of Xiangjiang as MacLehose.

Li Guangyu still hopes that when MacLehose is in office, several universities in Xiangjiang can add some more electronic disciplines, so as to provide him with some reserve talents for the future development of the group.

Li Guangyu said: "Mr. MacLehose, the world's emerging industries are now focusing on the semiconductor industry. I hope that Hong Kong Chinese University and Hong Kong University can strengthen the discipline construction in this area and provide a strong foundation for Hong Kong's future development in this area. talent support."

MacLehose also knows the direction of the world's economic development today, but there are a few in Xiangjiang who can do this kind of industry, and they all squeeze their heads into the real estate industry.

MacLehose said: "I will communicate with several principals about this matter. I think they know the trend of world development and will take some actions in this regard."

Li Guangyu was a little disappointed when he heard this. The government didn’t pay much attention to the development in this area. In addition, the Hong Kong local consortium didn’t have such thoughts. No wonder today’s four Asian tigers, in later generations, only Hong Kong has no semiconductor groups and companies. , Both South Korea and Taiwan have well-known semiconductor companies.Even Singapore is many times stronger than Xiangjiang in this respect.

Li Guangyu also mentioned that he has no determination to change Xiangjiang, he does not have that much ability, and he is not willing to do some thankless things, so he should put the semiconductor company in Baodao with peace of mind.
