After accompanying his mother for a few days, Bao Zixuan knew that he was going to start getting busy again. This time it's not because I want to retreat to do scientific research, but because I've been looking for too many people recently, and some of them are still very important partners and it's not easy to refuse.

Bao Zixuan must come out today, because Governor MacLehose has given him an invitation. Although MacLehose is now waiting for Youde to come over and hand over, he is still the governor of Xiangjiang before the handover, and he still has to give the face he should give.

It's still the Peninsula Hotel, although I don't like Bao Zixuan very much. However, since the first time he talked about business, all the people who invited him chose to stay at the Peninsula Hotel, and they all thought that the richest man had a soft spot for it, but it might be very strange to know that the Peninsula Hotel was one of the few places he had heard of, but it was the case.

Although he is about to step down, Bao Zixuan does not dare to get out of office. After all, Xiangjiang is still in the hands of the British, and if you anger the other party because of a trivial matter, it will obviously outweigh the losses. Although he is leaving, he is also a feudal official when he returns to the UK, and he still has to ask for his opinion on some decisions in Xiangjiang.

When an official reaches MacLehose's level, the national interest will definitely be the priority, but sometimes a good relationship can also bring unexpected surprises.

Michael Kadoorie, who had already received the news, personally greeted Bao Zixuan and MacLehose in the hotel lobby, in fact, he was more concerned about Bao Zixuan than MacLehose at this time. It's not just that MacLehose is about to step down from the post of tea cooler, but the main reason is that he really has something to do with Bao Zixuan.

Seeing Bao Zixuan's arrival, Michael Kadoorie hurriedly stepped forward and stretched out his hand and said, "Welcome Bao Sheng to the Peninsula Hotel, His Excellency the Governor has already set a position, and I will take you there." ”

Bao Zixuan also didn't understand why Michael Kadoorie was so enthusiastic, but the so-called reaching out and not hitting the smiling person, since people give you enough face, you can't put your nose on your face.

Bao Zixuan: "Then there is Mr. Law, Cardoorie." ”

When Bao Zixuan sat down, Michael Kadoorie said, "Bao Sheng, I really have something to look for you. This is the right opportunity. After talking to the Governor in a moment, could you please sit down a little longer? ”

Although Bao Zixuan didn't know what medicine this guy was selling in his gourd, he thought that it was also a matter of effort. Moreover, the Kadoorie family in the future can always stand tall in Xiangjiang, and it is by no means an idle generation, it can be regarded as a family that can be socialized.

Bao Zixuan: "No problem, but it shouldn't be too long." I also made an appointment with someone else after a while, and it wasn't good to be late. ”

Michael Kadoorie: "Thank you very much, Bao Sheng, I will never delay you for too long. ”

In less than five minutes, Michael Kadoorie and Governor MacLehose arrived in front of Bao Zixuan. Without daring to disturb the two men, Michael Kadoorie quickly retreated.

Bao Zixuan stood up and said, "I feel the kind invitation of His Excellency the Governor, you are really polite. ”

MacLehose: "You didn't attend the Christmas Charity Dinner, I thought you had an opinion about me! I didn't expect to quietly research a ground-effect aircraft, and I blamed you this time." This invitation to you is a congratulation and a farewell. ”

"London has appointed Sir Youde as the new Governor of Hong Kong, and I am now waiting for him to come and take over. ”

Bao Zixuan: "That's really a pity, although we don't have much contact. But to be honest, since you took office, the security in Xiangjiang has been much better. When I was very young, I often faced all kinds of harassment, which is almost invisible now. These are real feats, at least for ordinary people in Hong Kong. ”

MacLehose didn't expect Bao Zixuan to comment on him like this, it seems that this young man is still relatively simple in his bones. Whether it's installed or not, it still sounds very comfortable now.

MacLehose: "Thank you for the recognition, to be honest, I'm a person who likes industry very much. However, before you, most of the super-rich in Hong Kong were engaged in shipping and real estate, and it was not until you appeared that I felt that the future development of Hong Kong should be guaranteed. ”

Bao Zixuan: "You really exalt me so much, I can't decide the fate of Xiangjiang alone." ”

MacLehose knows that Bao Zixuan has this ability, and he will not admit it, after all, when your strength can be taken into account by those in power, that is when you are not far from death.

MacLehose: "I asked you to meet this time because London has the latest instructions, and it is about ground effect aircraft. ”

Knowing that there are some things that can't be avoided, Bao Zixuan is not entangled. He smiled and said, "If there is anything to tell Your Excellency the Governor, I did not expect that a small means of transport could alarm the London side." ”

MacLehose: "Do you really think this is a small means of transport? When the Xiangjiang monster flew during the test flight, it was not even discovered by the radar station deployed in Xiangjiang, and the fast speed and large volume were definitely important weapons for breaking through the defense. ”

"Therefore, the London side is very concerned about the test flight progress of the ground effect aircraft, and this time I came here to ask you when you will be able to fully finalize and enter the mass production stage. ”

Bao Zixuan: "Now it depends on the test flight, but it will not be finalized until the end of the year at the earliest." After all, this is a flying machine, and we have to ensure that nothing goes wrong, and no one can afford this responsibility in the event of an accident. ”

Hearing that it would not be finalized until the end of the year at the earliest, MacLehose felt a lot more relieved; after all, he would have returned to China by that time. Xiangjiang's matter gave Youde a headache, and now the situation is becoming more and more confusing, and he really doesn't dare to continue to think about it. Although I am very unwilling in my heart, I also know that form is weaker than people. He was the first to know the attitude of the Chinese side, so he was very optimistic about the future of the British Empire in Xiangjiang.

MacLehose: "London hopes to sell the first two ships of the Xiangjiang Monster Ground Effect Aircraft to the British Empire, and there is no problem with the black clouds!"

Hearing the words similar to Ming's robbery, the British wanted to buy two ships without even asking the price. Either you just don't care how much it is, or you just feel like you don't dare to sell expensive. Obviously, Britain belongs to the latter, although Bao Zixuan is unwilling. However, I also know that this is the current situation, and it is impossible for a person to fight against a country even if he is strong.

Bao Zixuan: "These are not problems, but there is no follow-up titanium alloy contract with the Soviets yet." Therefore, I can't guarantee when I will be able to get enough raw materials, which is a more troublesome thing. ”

"As long as we can get enough raw materials, the first two ships are sold to the British side, and I don't have any problems on my side, and there is also the fact that Heiyun currently does not have a military license, so he can only sell the aircraft to British private enterprises, I hope you can understand. ”

Hearing this, MacLehose also had a headache, after all, it was not easy to handle things when it involved the Soviets. Britain thinks it is strong, but it is also comparable to others. The Soviet Union has just finished flexing its muscles in front of the world, and Britain is really not enough to look at in front of others at this time.

And listen to this kid's meaning and still want a military license, if you give you a military license, it won't be against the sky. And British companies will not agree, this is to share their cake.

To take the Soviets out and tell the story is to let MacLehose and the British know that half of the ground effect aircraft is controlled by the Soviets. Even if Bao Zixuan agrees, it may not work, after all, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice. The military license is just a temptation, this matter Bao Zixuan has already prepared, and the British will definitely offer it with both hands when the time comes, and they will never delay that.

Later, MacLehose asked some more about the Black Cloud Group and Yulin Institute of Technology, which were important achievements in economic development and education during his administration, although anyone with a discerning eye knew that it had little to do with him. However, it can be reflected in his resume, and everyone will think that he is very familiar with Bao Zixuan of Heiyun Group wherever he works, and it will be relatively simple to attract investment. These relationships should also be taken into account in London, which can be said to be very helpful for my future work, after all, there is no business and industry in that place.

It can be said that no matter where he works, he can't do without the support of a super-rich man like Bao Zixuan, so MacLehose seems to have suddenly figured it out. Bao Zixuan is a super-rich man at any time, after all, the business belongs to him. And now that you are in a position, people may give you some face, if your descendants are not angry, who will pay attention to you in the future.

At this time, it is also for the sake of the family to form a good fate, at least for the sake of his own face, Bao Zixuan will also look at the people of the family differently. That's enough, so there's no need to offend the young man in front of you, his future achievements are estimated to be only known to God.
