Through the wealth life

Chapter 38 Visit from Xinhua News Agency

At 1:31 p.m. on the fourth day (January 07), He Zuozhi called.

"Grandpa, what can you do with me?" Li Guangyu said after receiving the call.

"Guangyu, the Xinhua News Agency came to visit me this afternoon and chatted about the mainland and Xiangjiang. It is said that I will go to your place tomorrow."

"Grandpa, I haven't received any news that Xinhua News Agency is coming to my place." Li Guangyu replied.

"It may be that the Xinhua News Agency hasn't contacted you yet. When it comes to the mainland, our He family's attitude is to help as long as it doesn't affect the family's development. In terms of the relationship between the mainland and Baodao, we are businessmen. When it comes to the local government, we don’t favor anyone.”

"Grandpa, I see, I will take care of these problems."

"When you face Xinhua News Agency, you must be careful, and don't make any promises. You can agree with the other party on some issues, such as Xiangjiang's return to the mainland. But you must be careful in dealing with the relationship between the mainland and Taiwan. If necessary, you can excuse it because you are young and ignorant." He Zuozhi instructed.

"Grandpa, don't worry, I know how to deal with it, and my business development will not be affected." Li Guangyu knew that his grandfather was worried about him, so he assured He Zuozhi.

He Zuozhi was still uneasy and asked for a while before hanging up the phone.

Not long after Li Guangyu hung up the phone, the phone rang again. Li Guangyu picked up the phone and said, "Hi, I'm Li Guangyu."

The phone said: "Li Sheng, hello, I am the vice president of Xinhua News Agency."

"Hello, what can I do?" Li Guangyu asked.

"Li Sheng, do you have time tomorrow morning? Our president hopes to visit you at your home at nine o'clock tomorrow morning."

Li Guangyu knew that the president of Xinhua News Agency was coming tomorrow, so he replied, "I will wait for President Zheng at home tomorrow morning."

"Alright then, Li Sheng, sorry to bother you, goodbye."

"Okay, goodbye." Li Guangyu finished talking and hung up the phone.

On the morning of February 2, Zheng Dong, accompanied by a staff member of the agency, went to Li Guangyu's villa in Repulse Bay.

Li Guangyu had already come to wait at the door, and when he saw Zheng Dong get off the car, he immediately went up to greet him and said, "President Zheng, happy new year! Thank you for coming to my humble house."

"Happy New Year Li Sheng, you are too kind, it is also my honor to visit a Hong Kong hero like you Li Sheng." Zheng Dong said.

Li Guangyu said, "President Zheng, please come inside."

Li Guangyu and Zheng Dong came to the study, and Li Guangyu ordered, "Grandpa Wu, take out the good tea you bought at home, brew it for us, and bring it to the study."

Li Guangyu immediately said to Zheng Dong: "President Zheng can come to Li's house today, it's really full of splendor!"

Seeing that Li Guangyu was so polite, Zheng Dong also said: "Li Sheng, you are too humble. Today's Xiangjiang is full of your deeds. You are in charge of the family business at the age of 16, and you have been in charge of the family business in just over a year. The family has been brought into the upper class of Xiangjiang, and the market value of its properties has surpassed that of the charter king. Now there is a rumor in Xiangjiang that you are the God of Wealth, and you have become the idol of countless Xiangjiang people.”

Li Guangyu said modestly: "President Zheng, I was just lucky. The blind cat met a dead mouse and just seized a few opportunities to make money. If it weren't for the group's big talents to support me, the game would have been over long ago." Said To be honest, sometimes I really can’t manage it with my own ability.”

After hearing Li Guangyu's answer, Zheng Dong felt that Li Guangyu did not have the pride and complacency of a young man at all.If he didn't know that Li Guangyu was really dissatisfied, he would have thought that he was an old fox in the mall for many years, and he didn't show the impulsiveness and pride that young people should have.

Zheng Dong then cut to the chase and said, "Li Sheng, what do you think about the issue of Hong Kong taking back Xiangjiang from the mainland?"

When Li Guangyu saw Zheng Dong asking this question, he immediately replied: "I am supportive of the motherland's taking back Xiangjiang. After all, we have the same root and worship the same ancestor. I think most people in Xiangjiang have the same idea as me."

Zheng Dong was very happy to hear Li Guangyu's statement. At least it reflected that the upper echelon of Xiangjiang still recognized the country's recovery of Xiangjiang, which would reduce many difficulties in future work.

"Thank you, Li Sheng, for your recognition of our party and country. We all know that Li Sheng, your media group has an absolute advantage in Xiangjiang. Can you let it promote the mainland?" Zheng Dong hoped that Li Guangyu could serve the mainland. Do more publicity so that the mainland can occupy a favorable position in Xiangjiang's public opinion.

Li Guangyu did not immediately answer Zheng Dong's request.Because it involves too much, if you are not careful, the Li Group will be hit hard.

Li Guangyu was deep in thought when there was a knock on the door.

Li Guangyu knew that Wu Wen must have brought the tea.Said: "Please come in."

Wu Wen brought the tea in, poured a cup for Li Guangyu and Zheng Dong at the same time, and then backed out.

Li Guangyu said to Zheng Dong: "President Zheng, please drink tea."

Seeing that Li Guangyu didn't answer his request just now, Zheng Dong asked, "Li Sheng, is there any difficulty with my question just now?"

Li Guangyu knew that it would be impossible to delay the process without answering, so he said: "President Zheng, since many issues in Xiangjiang have not yet been determined, and we are still under the rule of England, some things are not easy to handle. I can only ask the journalists under my banner From a neutral standpoint, we will objectively and factually report on the affairs of the mainland, and at the same time, we will not report events that smear the mainland."

Zheng Dong also never thought that Li Guangyu would directly agree to report from the standpoint of the mainland, as long as he can promote the mainland in a neutral and realistic way.

Said to Li Guangyu: "Li Sheng, you can stand in a neutral position is already a great help to us. We mainly want people from all walks of life in Xiangjiang to understand the changes in our mainland, so as to enhance communication between the two places."

Afterwards, Zheng Dong and Li Guangyu exchanged some views on Treasure Island and Lisboa, and Li Guangyu replied to them avoiding the important ones.

After talking for nearly an hour, Zheng Dong left.

Li Guangyu personally sent Zheng Dong to the door, and said enthusiastically: "President Zheng, please go slowly, welcome to the humble house again in the future."

Zheng Dong said to Li Guangyu: "Li Sheng, I think we will meet often in the future, and I hope Li Sheng will not be bothered by then."

"How could it be? President Zheng can come. I'm too happy to be in time. How can I be annoyed?" Li Guangyu said.

……

Zheng Dong's car drove away from Li Guangyu's villa slowly. In the car, the accompanying staff asked with a smile, "President, did you have a good conversation today?"

Zheng Dong knew that this subordinate must think that Li Guangyu was young and inexperienced, and he could fool him as soon as he said it.Said to him: "Do you think Li Guangyu is easy to talk to?"

"President, isn't it, a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old, as long as we talk about some patriotic examples and some propaganda slogans, he can't agree with enthusiasm?"

"If Li Guangyu was that simple, he would not have been able to develop the family business to this level in just over a year." Zheng Dong said with emotion.

"Ah, President, Li Guangyu is not good at talking?"

"It can't be said that he is an absolute elite among the young people I have seen. If you don't look at his face, it is hard to believe that he is still a dissatisfied teenager. I feel the same as the heads of other families. We are so cunning, avoid the important and ignore the minor, our work still has a long way to go!" Zheng Dong said to him.
