Countercurrent 1978 starts with the production team

After MacLehose, three Hong Kong Governors came to office one after another, Youde, Wilson Wei, and Patten. They were basically diplomats and relatively hawkish in their policies toward China.

Especially Wilson, when he took office, he proposed a large-scale development plan, a large-scale infrastructure development plan, which centered on the new international airport to be built in Chek Lap Kok, Lantau Island, and included ten core projects. .

Because this plan describes a future as beautiful as a rose garden, it is called the Rose Garden Plan.

In addition to the construction of new international airports, these ten core projects include corresponding airport supporting reclamation projects and a series of infrastructure projects such as airport railways, expressways, and undersea tunnels.

But the problem is that this hugely expensive infrastructure plan was carried out without our consent at all. You said that you are all determined to leave, and suddenly you are so kind and start building Hong Kong Island on a large scale. Is this as good as it sounds?

If you think about it with your buttocks, you know there's something fishy going on here. This is just burying a nail.

If these projects are not completed by 97, then the mainland will continue to carry out them or not.

There are also who does these projects, whose money is spent, and who gets the credit.

However, in the end, the plan costing HK$1500 billion was implemented.

As for the project, it will naturally be taken over by the British company.

In terms of funds, on the one hand, it was taken from the Hong Kong government's financial reserves, and on the other hand, it was borrowed from British-controlled banks.

On the face of it, the large-scale development plan has won the favor of the people of Hong Kong Island. On the inside, the British side is counting money until their hands cramp. It can be said that the British move has taken care of both face and face.

Is there any problem with the construction of Hong Kong Island? Of course there is no problem.

It’s entirely possible for the mainland to provide people and efforts. In terms of infrastructure construction, the mainland is doing its part and can do the same thing with less money.

At that time, the mainland was in urgent need of foreign exchange. In the early 90s, the mainland's foreign exchange reserves were only over US$300 billion.

This 1500 billion was a waste of money for the UK. In the last few years, the UK also spent all the Hong Kong government's fiscal reserves and owed a lot of debt to the banks.

Due to the tight financial reserves of the Hong Kong government, the Hong Kong government was unable to respond to the 98 Asian Financial Crisis, and had to rely on the mainland to resolve it.

This series of actions made people angry, but at that time, the mainland had no better means to restrain the other party. It could only declare that it did not recognize a series of contracts signed by the Hong Kong government during this period.

The statement is still effective. In this way, banks and other financial institutions will not dare to lend money to the Hong Kong government, and the scale of Hong Kong government borrowing will be controlled.

Otherwise, if people like Wei Yixin and others borrow hundreds of billions and leave a mess, who will clean it up?

In the end, the UK promised to leave 250 billion in funds during the handover, and this series of events came to an end.

But after all the calculations, the British side still made a lot of money.

After hearing Chu Jianghe's words, Director Zhou thought for a long time before nodding heavily: "What you said is very likely to happen. I will record it one by one so that we can be prepared during future negotiations. "

After saying that, Director Zhou smiled again and looked at Chu Jianghe with great admiration. He was full of praise in his tone: "As expected of Mr. Dai's student, he can see things far away. When I see Mr. Dai in the future, I can I need to have a good talk with Mr. Dai."

Mr. Huo also looked at Chu Jianghe with some surprise. He didn't expect this young man to think so far. He didn't even think of this level.

Chu Jianghe quickly raised his hands and begged for mercy: "Director Zhou, please don't hurt me. Dai Lao doesn't know what I have done. If he knows that I am not doing my job properly here, he will definitely criticize me."

Director Zhou knew very well the details of Chu Jianghe, especially how he came to Hong Kong Island. He encouraged: "There is no one who knows but does not do it. Knowing but not doing it is just unknown. Knowing and doing are inseparable." , only the unity of knowledge and action is true knowledge. Be a doer who takes action, and don’t be a talker who sits and talks. If Mr. Dai knew that you could apply what you have learned and it is too late to be happy, how could he criticize you."

Mr. Huo also agreed with Director Zhou's words and said the same: "I forgot that you are still a top student at Peking University. They say it is easier said than done. It is already remarkable that you can apply what you have learned into your own actions. "

This man also made money in the financial market that others could not make in several lifetimes, which shows his foresight and his support to him is not in vain.

After Mr. Huo praised him, he thought that the children of the Huo family could communicate with him more in private.

Facing the compliments from the two elders, Chu Jianghe could only say modestly: "Thank you, thank you."

……

After a conversation, Chu Jianghe simply had a simple meal with the two of them before leaving.

Liu Yunfang was a little curious about what they were talking about, so Chu Jianghe told her briefly.

Liu Yunfang knew that her man was a man who did big things, but she was not interested in such big things. She said, "It seems that you men are naturally interested in such things. In the past, you could often hear people talking about these big things in the village and alleys." Yeah. Even sometimes I can’t figure out why two people can quarrel while talking.”

She really didn't understand men's psychology. She always felt that this matter had nothing to do with ordinary people. Why was she so excited? Is it interesting?

Chu Jianghe smiled, knowing what his wife was talking about.

Men are naturally very interested in things like electronics, machinery, military, war, politics, power, etc.

Just like women love bags, men will naturally secrete adrenaline when exposed to this kind of thing, and their whole body will become excited.

Not to mention anything else, many children and even adults unconsciously stood by and watched when they saw the excavator.

If you ask him what he enjoys watching, he can't tell you. Anyway, some people just like it.

So Chu Jianghe didn't know how to answer his wife's question. He could only say: "This may be an innate instinctive reaction."

There is no way, some things are flowing in the blood and engraved in the genes.

Since Chu Jianghe came back from being a guest at the Huo family, the news naturally reached the ears of interested people, so many people took the initiative to invite Chu Jianghe to attend some banquets, but Chu Jianghe declined them one by one.

Except for agreeing to Mr. Huo to watch the national football team's game in Singapore, Chu Jianghe has been living in seclusion at home these days.

One is that he doesn't like socializing, and the other is that as the time approaches, he has to prepare to go back to school.

During this time, he should always spend time with his wife.

By the time summer comes, I'm almost going to be a father, so I can't waste my time on outsiders.

A few days later, Nalan Qing came back from the United States, and Chu Jianghe went to the airport to greet her in person.

When I saw Nalan Qing again wearing a professional skirt, looking at her energetic look, I knew that she must have gained something from her trip.
