Qi Lianshan has been in Hong Kong for a long time, so he naturally has a good idea of the structure of rights on the island.

Before the return to the motherland, the loudest voice in Hong Kong was naturally the British capital represented by Jardine Matheson, and the agent on the surface was the governor of Hong Kong.

However, as the date of Hong Kong's return to the motherland approached, the seemingly neutral faction represented by Li took advantage of their Chinese descent and began to emerge in Hong Kong by acting as a kind of channel and bridge between China and Britain or the transfer of old and new forces.

Hong Kong's top-level power structure was originally the Republic, Wanwan, the United Kingdom, and Hong Kong's local faction of four mahjong players, Wanwan in Hong Kong as a-stirring stick that I don't do nonsense, no one is nonsense, the Republic and Britain are the main opponents sitting face-to-face, and there is both struggle and cooperation between the two, while the Hong Kong local faction is in the name of commercial freedom in the name of neutrality in the card game to eat and bump into the family, rob the family, left and right, and make a lot of money.

After Yuanjia acquired Jardine Matheson, the power of British capital in Hong Kong was greatly reduced, and even if the British were not out, this mahjong game became a five-a-side system.

Not long ago, Hong Kong sent an invitation to Niu Bijian, who was in charge of Jardine Matheson, which was regarded as a test of the position of the other three companies against Yuanjia, a new entrant.

In the 70s and 80s, before Hong Kong's return to the motherland, the local tycoons in Hong Kong, represented by Li Student, put forward a very interesting proposal, that is, to set up a Hong Kong Redemption Commission, intending to gradually redeem Hong Kong land and ...... from the Republic by paying one billion US dollars or more every year.

In the eyes of the Hong Kong tycoons, this is the ultimate solution to the Hong Kong problem, when the silky republic will receive astronomical money, and the overseas world is also very supportive of this kind of business-wise proposal, and I don't see the predecessor of the Soviet Union selling Alaska to the United States, and even the international practice is ready-made.

The only pity is that those communist poor B in the north flatly rejected the good intentions of the tycoons, and the tycoons saw for the first time that there are really some things on this planet that money can't buy.......

The so-called flies do not bite seamless eggs. As a matter of fact, the root cause of some chaos in Hong Kong was already planted in the 70s and 80s, and the future republic threw all the black pots of Hong Kong's contradictions on the heads of the Americans and the British, and the Americans and the British alone could not make such a big wave ...... in Hong Kong.

Now the redemption committee has sent the invitation to join the Jardine Matheson CEO Niu Bijian, the tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, Qi Lianshan stood in front of the window, and all kinds of news about Hong Kong recently rolled through his mind.

Killing Qi Lianshan could not have imagined that it would only take three or four years. I actually went to the circle of affairs that participated in determining the future direction of Hong Kong.

Turning around, Qi Lianshan, who had collected his feelings, bent his fingers and tapped the bell on the desk, and a few seconds later, a tall girl wearing a gray Western-style skirt and blond hair walked in from outside.

"Mr. Qi, what do you command?"

The tall blonde girl smiled neatly, but it was a pity that the stiff sense of Chinese ruined the professional qualities that the lady had just shown.

Once a son of heaven and a courtier, the leading Jardine Matheson of the Caesarc family, the secretary team serving the president's office and the director's office was naturally dominated by white employees. Now that the Kaiser family has patted their butts and run away, they haven't taken anything from Hong Kong except for money, and the president's office is still a little better because Niu Bijian has ascended to the old position, and it is very likely that many administrative secretaries will be retained, but it is difficult to say on Qilianshan's side.

Liang Yuan's first administrative order to Jardine Matheson was about the internationalization of Yuanjia, and the internationalization required by Liang Yuan was not a unilateral requirement for Yuanjia's domestic employees to be in line with international standards, but a mandatory issuance of official documents, due to the strategic adjustment of Jardine Matheson Group, within one to two years. Jardine Matheson's middle-level and above management personnel must have daily listening, speaking, reading and writing skills in Chinese and English, and those who can take into account German will be included in the key list of reserve cadres of the group.

As for the middle and senior managers who can't do it. They will be transferred to other departments that are more suitable for their strengths.

Of course, the executive order is only aimed at middle and senior managers of Jardine Matheson and its subsidiaries, with the exception of technical personnel, ordinary employees and low-level managers.

As the leader of British-funded enterprises in Hong Kong, Jardine Matheson has a large number of foreign employees, and it can be said that most of the management framework of Jardine Matheson is composed of foreigners. Chinese executives make up a small percentage of Jardine Matheson's management.

However, many smart and ambitious Jardine grassroots managers also quietly tutored Chinese, and as a result, Liang Yuan made a high-level Chinese cram school in Hong Kong explode, and Chinese teachers similar to HKU made a lot of money.

Of course, there are not without doubts, after all, Hong Kong society at this time is proud to be fluent in English and Cantonese. To speak Mandarin is deflated.

In the words of Niu Bijian, the group's future business focus will be on the Greater China region, and the group does not plan to take on the salary of translators at the same time as the future expatriate managers, and it cannot adapt to the group's strategic adjustment naturally cannot adapt to the current position.

Then these people were directly taken to a shell company to serve as idle positions, and only after successfully passing the handover period, they filed for bankruptcy of the shell company, and they did not even intend to take on the notoriety of laying off the old minister.

For the original middle and senior managers of the Jardine system, the day of Jardine has really changed, and it has become clean and neat without hesitation.

"Cathy, has the charter flight of United Airlines been arranged?" Qi Lianshan asked in English.

Interestingly, during this time, the secretaries of the Jardine Board of Directors Office communicated with Qi Lianshan in Chinese, but Qi Lianshan has been explaining their work to the secretaries in English.

Liang Yuan's internationalization of Yuanjia does not only refer to Jardine, the entire Yuanjia system is included in it, and the language training within the domestic targeted enterprises has already begun, although Liang Yuan did not specifically point out that the members of the Yuanjia Conference are also included, but how can there be fools or lazy people who can be promoted to this level of Qilianshan, and naturally will not leave the opportunity for others to guide themselves.

Therefore, Qi Lianshan, He Yunwei, and Lu Hengsheng, who have no technical background, and the original language foundation is not very good, are all consciously strengthening their foreign language skills, and Lu Hengsheng is learning both English and German together.

"United Airlines' flight KN5507 will arrive at Kai Tak Airport on time at 13 p.m., but Lufthansa flight LH769 was forced to be rerouted due to bad weather in Pakistan and is expected to arrive in Hong Kong half an hour late, and if there are no major accidents, colleagues from the European branch will arrive in Hong Kong at around 15 p.m. ”

Cathy didn't look at the memo in her hand, and fluently reported the news that Qi Lianshan needed.

Liu Wenyue, Zhou Yuanhang, Sun Zhuolin and others who were far away in Europe chartered half of the flight, and returned to China together with more than 30 chief engineers and chief mechanics of passenger aircraft subsystems poached by COMAC from the United States.

However, in order to show Yuanjia's corporate strength and retain people's hearts, and in order to use this group of people's industry connections to better dig into the United States, the European team will stay in Hong Kong for six hours to visit the group's properties in Hong Kong.

After dinner in Hong Kong, the European team will join the Asia-Pacific team and fly directly to Shengjing on a charter flight operated by United Airlines to attend the group meeting two days later.

Qi Lianshan asked a lot of details about the dinner party and browsing routes, after all, Liu Wenyue, Zhou Yuanhang and others are at the same level as themselves, and Qi Lianshan, as a landlord, doesn't want to make any mistakes in the reception.

After a while, Qi Lianshan nodded with satisfaction, pointed to a large pile of documents on the desk, and said: "These blue documents will be transferred to Yihe for archiving, remember to wake me up when Chairman Niu Bijian arrives, and I will go to rest for a while." ”

The Jardine management structure left by Kaiser has not moved for the time being, and Jardine Matheson Strategy still controls the four listed companies of Hongkong Land, Mandarin Oriental, Dairy Cow International, and Jardine Pacific in the name of offshore companies.

However, outside the perception of the public, the media and the Hong Kong government, in Bermuda, a globally recognized tax haven, Jardine Matheson's stake has quietly dispersed from South Africa's 1024 International Investment Company to three foundations called LJ, LF and FJ.

On the basis of these three foundations, Liang Yuan registered a holding company called UNITE in London, injected 51% of the shares of the three foundations, and then merged this enterprise with the Hong Kong United Trust, and finally completed the control of the Jardine Matheson System by the Hong Kong United Trust led by Qi Lianshan.

However, this is not the end, the equity of the Hong Kong United Trust is held by the Asian Development Bank, the financial tentacle of Yuanjia in Hong Kong, and the remaining 49% of the shares of the three Bermuda-registered foundations will be injected into another offshore company together with the Asian Development Bank, and then finally vested under the name of Yuanjia.

After a few rounds of this method of taking off his pants and farting, there was no affiliation between Jardine Matheson and the United Trust from the registration information of a single company, and the name Yuanjia was hidden without a trace.

However, the names of the three foundations, LF, LJ, and FJ, were casually given by Ning Wanfei's girl, obviously taking the first and last names in the names of the three people, Ning Wanfei was indignant from time to time about the company that did not have the name of Yuanfei, and Liang Yuan naturally did not dare to say much about the names of the three foundations.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the thick fog that had filled the morning had already dissipated under the noonday sun, and several banded clouds on the horizon pulled out seven or eight parallel lines, looking like a large fan of pork ribs made of white jade from the ground.

Lufthansa flight LH769 from Frankfurt, Federal Republic of Germany, arrived in Hong Kong after a fourteen-hour flight.

Li Guowei stood up from his seat and waved his hand to Zhou Yuanhang, who was waving to him in the first few rows, and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhou and Mr. Liu go down first, I slept halfway through my neck and had to move well, or I had to tilt my head to see Lao Qi." ”

Zhou Yuanhang laughed and Liu Wenyue walked towards the hatch. (To be continued.) )
