Chapter 526 MacLehose resigns
On the night of May 5, Li Guangyu and Cao Weiqing went to the banquet hall of the Governor's Mansion to attend the banquet hosted by MacLehose.
Today is the time when MacLehose officially resigns. He came to Xiangjiang as the governor in 71, and it has been nearly 11 years now.
Under his governance, Hong Kong's economy has developed rapidly, the government and people's livelihood have been greatly improved, and he has made great contributions to Hong Kong.
This time, in order to show respect to MacLehose and thank MacLehose for taking care of the Li Group over the past few years, even though Cao Weiqing was more than four months pregnant, she still attended the banquet with Li Guangyu.
In the banquet hall of the Governor's Mansion tonight, the helmsmen of the major families of Xiangjiang, as well as elites from both political and business circles attended the dinner.
The new Governor-General has not yet arrived, and Xia Dingji is currently the Governor-General.
On Li Guangyu's side, after MacLehose resigned, he talked about some of his views.
Li Ka-shing said: "When MacLehose was in office, our Chinese-owned family was doing well. As long as we didn't deliberately stand on the opposite side, our development was not suppressed, but we don't know what happened when Youde came. "
At the end of last year, the British government announced that Youde would come to Xiangjiang to serve as the governor after MacLehose stepped down.
After Yinglun's announcement, all the major families in Xiangjiang collected information about Youde, so as to understand Youde's situation and make sufficient preparations for the next step.
Li Guangyu himself also has a lot of information about Youde. This new governor is quite familiar with the Greater China region. He has been a diplomat in the mainland for many years, and he can speak Chinese.
It's just that this man has been engaged in diplomatic work for most of his life, and Li Guangyu himself is not sure whether this man can maintain the policies of the MacLehose period in terms of economy.
Moreover, the next two or three years will be very difficult for Xiangjiang, and the economic development will be very unsatisfactory, especially after the property market collapses, Xiangjiang's economy will be hit hard.
Li Guangyu sometimes felt that MacLehose was very lucky. His tenure happened to avoid the outbreak of some problems in Xiangjiang, so that he had a good ending when he left office, making him one of the governors most grateful to the people of Xiangjiang.
Many things in the future are unavoidable. If MacLehose serves another term, I am afraid that he will squander the reputation he has accumulated in the past. Human nature is sometimes so complicated. credit will also be ignored.
As the time came to [-]:[-], MacLehose said in his congratulatory speech at the beginning of the banquet: "Thank you for coming to my resignation banquet. Xiangjiang has been my second hometown for more than ten years. The development of Xiangjiang over the years has made me I am very gratified that this is also inseparable from the efforts of everyone here, and it is with the joint efforts of everyone that our Hong Kong economy can achieve rapid development."
Afterwards, MacLehose talked about some of his shortcomings in the past year, such as the lack of higher education in Xiangjiang and the improvement of people's livelihood. He hoped that those present could work together with the successor Governor to develop Xiangjiang better and better.
MacLehose did not talk about how much contribution he has made to Xiangjiang tonight. Instead, he said that he has not done enough in those areas and has not done those things. I hope everyone will put Xiangjiang as the most important thing and promote all aspects Fast and good development.
After finishing his speech, MacLehose came to Li Guangyu's side specially to express his gratitude to Li Guangyu and others for coming.
MacLehose knew in his heart that the future of Xiangjiang was in the hands of Li Guangyu and his interest group. They had already begun to involve in all aspects of Xiangjiang's production and life. As long as they were stable, Xiangjiang would not have any major problems.
Although MacLehose has resigned, he still hopes that Xiangjiang can maintain a stable and positive development.He himself is well aware of the difficulty of the major families in Xiangjiang, and they have put in too much hard work to have the current family business.
Due to the specific historical environment, the development of the Xiangjiang Chinese family was naturally suppressed by the British consortium.After so many years of accumulation, and the fact that they did not deliberately suppress the Chinese-funded families after they came to power, they began to develop by leaps and bounds, and the result was the rapid decline of the British-funded consortia.
MacLehose himself also knows that there are quite a few congressmen on the mainland who have opinions on some of the policies he implemented in Xiangjiang, but MacLehose doesn't care about these.
He knew that Xiangjiang's economy would not be able to develop rapidly if the British consortium had been hanging over it, but he didn't expect the British consortium to be so vulnerable.
It has only been a few years, and they have been suppressed by the Chinese consortium. Only Jardine and Taikoo are left in the four big foreign companies, and the two groups are not living well now.
The Swire Group has now given up the fight with the Chinese consortium, while the Jardine Group is shifting the market.Others don't know very well, as the governor, MacLehose has many sources of information, and Jardine is planning to withdraw from the Xiangjiang market.
MacLehose said: "Mr. Li Guangyu, the current development is hard-won. I hope you will maintain confidence in Xiangjiang and promote the development of Xiangjiang."
Li Guangyu said: "Mr. MacLehose, the development of Xiangjiang is inseparable from the contributions you have made in the past ten years. It is the series of policies you have implemented that have made Xiangjiang have such a good life today. As for the working environment, I believe that the citizens of Xiangjiang will not forget your efforts for Xiangjiang."
"I also believe that Xiangjiang will develop better and better in the future. Xiangjiang is the place where I grew up and the place where my group started. As the foundation of my Li Group, this place will not change."
Regarding Li Guangyu's words, MacLehose was noncommittal, but he knew some actions of Li Guangyu's group.
Last year, it was reported that a new landmark of Xiangjiang would be built. The new group building, which is taller than the HSBC building, is still on paper, and its subsidiary Wheelock Group is dealing with a large number of properties in its hands. What does this mean? Why, how could MacLehose not see clearly.
MacLehose said: "I have also communicated with Governor Youde. He also knows this place very well. He will not specifically target your Chinese family. Please put down your worries. Xiangjiang is a community of more than 500 million citizens. Xiangjiang is also your Xiangjiang, the support policy for the four major consortiums will not appear again, and it will not suppress your development."
Hearing what MacLehose said, Li Ka-shing and others felt relieved a lot. As long as the government doesn't target themselves and others, they really don't worry about commercial competition.
They are worried that, like in the 60s, the government in some industries explicitly refused to allow some Chinese-funded families to enter, which caused a major blow to their family businesses. Their businessmen did not have the capital to fight the government head-on.
Li Ka-shing said: "Mr. MacLehose, thank you for your concern for our Chinese family. We also take Xiangjiang as our main market. We also hope that Xiangjiang will develop better and better. Only when Xiangjiang's economy develops, we ourselves Enterprises can achieve rapid development."
After communicating with Li Guangyu, Lee Shau Kee, and Stanley Ho for a while, MacLehose went to Chen Zengxi and Wang Dehui to have some exchanges with them.
As the host of today's banquet, it was obviously impossible for MacLehose to only communicate with Li Guangyu's interest group.
