Li Guangyu and Cao Weiqing went to the Governor's Palace at half past seven in the evening to attend a banquet hosted by Governor Wilsson.

Tonight's Governor's Palace was quite lively, and the elites of the political and business circles in Xiangjiang came here to congratulate Wilson on his arrival and to learn about the changes that Wilsson's appointment would bring to Xiangjiang.

When Li Guangyu entered the banquet hall, it was already bustling with activity, and many familiar people were talking to each other.

Li Guangyu and Cao Weiqing walked all the way, stopping from time to time to respond to the surrounding people all the way, no matter what banquet Li Guangyu attends now, this will be the case, and the people around him will greet him, even if he himself is unwilling, it is also the center and focus of the banquet.

For Wei Yixin, Li Guangyu still knows some information, they once visited MacLehose, they often see this person, but in 81, this person was transferred back to London, did not expect that this time it would be him to come as governor, and the Chinese name has also been changed, it was not called Wei Yixin before.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Wilson and his wife arrived at the banquet hall, this is also a British diplomatic elite, and Chinese and Cantonese have no difficulty for him.

Perhaps in order to get closer to all walks of life in Hong Kong, Wei Yixin said in Cantonese: "Thank you very much for taking the time to attend this reception held by me, everyone is an elite from all walks of life in Hong Kong, and I hope to work with you to maintain the stability of Hong Kong and make the economic development of Hong Kong better." ”

Wilson knew very well that if he did not get the support of these elites to take up his post in Hong Kong, his work would be very difficult.

He is very glad that he has studied in Xiangjiang for a few years, and at the same time worked in Xiangjiang for a few years, and he still has a good understanding of the situation in Xiangjiang.

The only change is the defeat of the Heung Kong British Consortium and the rise of the Chinese Consortium, when he was working in Heung Kong, although the Chinese were already competing with the Heung Kong British Consortium, and even Hutchison Whampoa was eaten by the Chinese.

But it is far less serious than it is now, the once glorious four British-funded foreign firms, only the half-crippled Jardine and Swire are left, and Xiangjiang is now Jardine and Swire are not ranked, and many groups under the Li consortium are able to suppress these two.

Other Chinese-funded families have also risen rapidly, and now the times in Xiangjiang have changed, and the only thing that has not changed is that the Li consortium is still so strong.

This time he came to Xiangjiang, Wilson still hopes to make some achievements, whether it was the MacLehose era or his predecessor Youde era, they have left a heavy mark in Xiangjiang.

MacLehose established the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) and brought the Hong Kong government back to Qingming, and Youde made significant contributions to education in Hong Kong, with the public Heung Kong University of Technology and the Heung Kong City University, and the private Heung Chung Hwa University, the Heung Kong Aviation College, and the Heung Kong University of Communication and Communication put into use during his tenure.

At present, there are also Xiangjiang University of Science and Technology, Xiangjiang Medical University, Xiangjiang Conservatory of Music, Xiangjiang Film and Television Academy, and Xiangjiang Academy of Fine Arts are still under construction, and it is expected that they will be officially put into use next autumn.

Let Xiangjiang change from only two institutions of higher learning, Xiangjiang University and Xiangjiang Chinese University, to 12 colleges and universities.

And if he wants to be the same as MacLehose and Youde, he needs to come up with his own development policy, and he must have real political performance support, so that he can get a good evaluation in Xiangjiang like these two.

He plans to focus on transportation and infrastructure, as the city's transportation is not yet perfect, the construction of new towns needs to be strengthened, and Kai Tak Airport is increasingly unable to meet the needs of Hong Kong.

Before he came, he heard that the Lee consortium and some Chinese families proposed to build a subway from the city to Tseung Kwan O, and at the same time proposed to build a new airport in Heung Kong to meet the future needs of Heung Kong in air transportation.

"I will do my utmost to ensure the prosperity and stability of Hong Kong, and the Government will do its utmost to improve the transport infrastructure and promote the economic development of Hong Kong, with a focus on the MTR line from the urban area to Tseung Kwan O, as well as the site of our new airport," he said at the reception.

In addition, our government will also strengthen the construction of primary and secondary schools, so that more children can enjoy high-quality education, and at the same time, our government will also support the development of higher education institutions in Xiangjiang, so that Xiangjiang's colleges and universities can become famous universities in Asia and even the world. ”

Everyone present didn't know if Wilsson's inner thoughts were as he said, at least now his statement made everyone very happy, Tseung Kwan O will be like Tin Shui Wai, and will become a hot spot for investment.

Everyone expressed their willingness to support the work of Wilson and the Heung Kong government and contribute to the development of Hong Kong.

After everyone stopped, Wilson said: "I would also like to hear your opinions on the development of Hong Kong, especially Mr. Li Guangyu, Mr. Zheng Yutong, Mr. Keswick, Mr. Li Fuzhao, Mr. Xiu Dalan and others, you are all elites in business and finance, and I believe that after combining your views, the future development of Hong Kong is worth looking forward to." ”

Li Guangyu and others saw that Wilson had already named themselves, and each expressed their own opinions on the future development of Xiangjiang.

Li Guangyu said: "Thank you Mr. Wilson for your attention to me, the stable and positive development of Hong Kong is the common aspiration of our more than 5 million Hong Kong citizens, I personally support your construction plan, and I hope that the government can increase support for high-tech industries, so that Hong Kong can occupy a place in the world in this regard." ”

After Li Guangyu's words fell, Li Fuzhao said: "As the world's third largest financial center, I hope that the government can continue to strengthen policy support in this regard, consolidate our position in finance, and make Xiangjiang more attractive in the world's financial industry." ”

Subsequently, Keswick, Xiu Dalan, Zheng Yutong, Charter King, Kadoorie, Shi Huaiya and others said some of their suggestions.

Wilson said with a smile: "Thank you very much for these suggestions, I will conduct some research on the economy of Hong Kong in the next period, and then make a plan that is conducive to the economic development of Hong Kong, I believe that with the joint efforts of everyone, we will become one of the most prosperous regions in the world." ”

The atmosphere of the whole party was very good, at least for Wilsson's statement, all parties also had a reassurance in their hearts, as long as the governor hoped for the stable development of Hong Kong, they did not have to worry about policy risks, let alone their industries suddenly facing policy risks.

Toward the end of the meeting, Lee received an invitation from Wilson to come to the Governor's Palace tomorrow morning, with whom Wilson wanted to meet alone.

Li Guangyu naturally did not refuse this, he also wanted to know more about what Wilson really thought, which is also conducive to his next layout, a stable environment is the greatest support for his industry, Li Guangyu absolutely does not want any turmoil in the situation in Xiangjiang.
