Countercurrent 1978 starts with the production team

Chu Jianghe naturally knew that he was the focus of the audience now. Fortunately, there were no reporters or paparazzi here, so he didn't worry about anyone leaking his information.

The people present were all well-known people, and it wouldn't be a big deal if they found out.

At the very least, the boss here will definitely not gossip about his origins with too many people. If others don't know his origins, let them guess if they want to.

The banquet in the evening was mostly social. Everyone knew what was happening. Seeing that there was no chance to talk to the elder, they each found their own goals and started talking.

Mr. Huo introduced several elders to Chu Jianghe, and he was very optimistic about him. Judging from the praise he gave him, Chu Jianghe knew that the other party was trying to support him.

Although he didn't care about this, Chu Jianghe still appreciated Mr. Huo's noble character and had the patience to be polite to these people.

When the waiter came over, Mr. Huo motioned for everyone to take the wine glasses, smiled and said, "Let's all have a drink together."

Everyone readily agreed and raised their cups to take a sip.

Later, Chu Jianghe joined their chat. At first, the few people did not talk about business topics. They talked about some family affairs. Chu Jianghe didn't say much, and just watched quietly from the side.

Although it was a bit boring, I was too embarrassed to say goodbye.

But in the middle, someone asked Chu Jianghe a question: "I don't know if Mr. Chu is married."

Chu Jianghe was stunned for a moment, thinking that he wanted to act as a matchmaker for himself.

Before he could reply, Mr. Huo came to his rescue with a smile: "He is already married, so don't make any plans for him."

When they heard that Chu Jianghe was married, the elders thought it was a pity and gave up their plans.

Such an outstanding young man is a good match for people like himself. If he can win over him, he will definitely be a help to the family.

Seeing these people's reactions, Chu Jianghe smiled and did not comment on it.

These wealthy families on Hong Kong Island are still very traditional. They still behave like feudal parents. They pay attention to the parents' orders and the words of the matchmaker, and have a great say in the marriage of their children.

When choosing a marriage partner for your children, you still have to pay attention to a well-matched family. In this case, most second-generation people can only obey orders.

There are a few exceptions occasionally, which are considered deviant in their families.

After a few people chatted for a while, the conversation turned to business topics.

These people have great energy in Hong Kong Island. It can be said that if they unite, they will play a decisive role in the entire Hong Kong Island. Naturally, what they talk about together will not be a small project.

Even though Chu Jianghe is quite wealthy now, in terms of influence, he is still far behind them.

Whether it was out of etiquette or respect for his seniors, Chu Jianghe stood aside and listened quietly, listening very seriously and not expressing too many opinions.

These people are also gentle and gentle when talking about business, and their words are not arrogant at all. They look like the scholars in the school.

But Chu Jianghe knew that no one who could develop to this point was a good person.

Take Huo Lao as an example. When he was young, he would lift his head and lick the blood from the knife edge.

In that turbulent era, it was impossible to break through without ruthlessness, and all the bones and dregs that had been eaten by others would not be left.

What Huo Lao mentioned is naturally to encourage everyone to go north together and invest in the mainland. Now the mainland is in the opening window period. If you can plan in advance, you will definitely get rich returns.

"Construction of the Shekou Industrial Zone started last year. I don't need to elaborate on the importance of this location. Based on Hong Kong and Macao, backed by the mainland, and facing overseas, there is definitely a lot of potential here."

As the honorary president of the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce, Mr. Huo's words still hold great weight.

The remaining few people are not fools. Years of experience in shopping malls have long sharpened their sharp eyes, so they can naturally see the business opportunities. Moreover, with Mr. Huo taking the lead, it would be a lie to say that they are not interested.

Li Jiacheng said: "Shopping malls are not a place for friendship. There are quick hands and there are slow hands. Everyone knows this truth."

After listening to Li Jiacheng's words, everyone smiled knowingly.

Mr. Huo said with a smile: "This is natural. This is also an opportunity for everyone to repay their hometown."

These words are in line with Mr. Huo's character. In his later years, when Mr. Huo recalled his actions back then, he said: In those circumstances, it would be false to say that I was purely patriotic and not for making money. But to think that I do this just to make money is to look down on me.

Everyone remained calm and could not tell what they were thinking.

Li Jiacheng continued: "If we can cooperate with the mainland to develop Shekou, I will definitely support it with both hands."

After hearing what he said, the other people looked at each other, and then nodded silently, obviously agreeing with Li Jiacheng's statement.

Mr. Huo nodded: "As long as everyone has this intention, we can talk about the specific things. What do you think, Mr. Chu?"

As Mr. Huo spoke, he pointed the topic at Chu Jianghe, who had been silent next to him. The other people also looked at him, wanting to know what this young man had to say.

Chu Jianghe was not optimistic about the prospect of them cooperating with the mainland to develop the Shekou Industrial Zone. At this time, the mainland was still very conservative and would not rashly agree to their proposal.

In my previous life, I had heard that these people formed a group to go to the investment promotion bureau to discuss cooperative development matters, but in the end they returned without success.

If the staff of the China Merchants Bureau agrees to their proposal, the Shekou Industrial Zone may achieve more than what it has achieved now.

But who can say for sure about this kind of thing? History cannot be assumed.

Although he already knew the result, he couldn't be disappointed at this time.

The China Merchants Bureau is now solely responsible for the transfer of goods from the mainland to Hong Kong Island. No matter whether this matter is successful or not, there is no harm in getting in touch with them more.

After thinking about this, Chu Jianghe smiled and said: "You are all seniors who have been in the mall for a long time. I will benefit a lot if you can learn from your experience behind your seniors. I completely agree with Mr. Huo's suggestion."

As a junior, Chu Jianghe didn't want to dominate the crowd, he just wanted to show his attitude.

Being able to participate in a project with these elders is in itself a recognition of one's own strength. It means that one has initially entered their circle, and nothing else matters.

Of course, Chu Jianghe was not thinking about the Shekou Industrial Zone, but wanted to establish a good relationship with the Investment Promotion Bureau in advance.

Needless to say, the status of China Merchants Group in later generations. This company, which was founded during the Westernization Movement, will also become a behemoth in the future.

As long as I can get involved in a few companies in the future, it will be of great benefit to me.

Mr. Huo was very satisfied with Chu Jianghe's statement. He first looked at Chu Jianghe, then at the other people, and said, "Okay, that's it. Let's make contact with Shekou in a while."
