The year 1982 was the year when Hong Kong's economy was booming and cooking oil was blazing.

At this time, although the negotiations between China and the UK on the future ownership of Hong Kong have not yet ended, the change in political form has not affected the optimism of global capital on the economy of Hong Kong.

Real estate, shipping, light manufacturing, entrepot trade, finance, film and television...... Gold diggers from all over the globe, smugglers from the mainland, have injected endless vitality into the city.

From the 1970s to the early 2000s, it led the economic and cultural development of the entire East Asian region as a small land, and was well-deserved as the Pearl of the Orient.

At this time, Yang Weining was sitting in a bright silver Mercedes-Benz W123, observing the streets of Xiangjiang in the 80s.

The road is full of traffic, on both sides of the road are full of energetic people coming and going, and the high-rise buildings that have been built or are under construction are lined up one after another, which makes Yang Weining vaguely feel the vibrant Chinese atmosphere in the first and second decades of the 21st century.

In this era, Xiangjiang was not the hollow industrial city that only left the financial industry to support the façade in later generations, but an extremely developed industrial city, with the number of manufacturing jobs alone accounting for about 42% of the total employed population.

Textiles, toys and plastics are the three basic light industries in the world.

If Xiangjiang continues on the road of industrialization, then it may become a city with equal emphasis on industry, science and technology, and finance, just like Lijiapo after that.

However, in the next ten years, the British government of Hong Kong squeezed the Xiangjiang River and drained the city's economic hematopoietic capacity, which was the last carnival of the colonists.

By the time of the handover, the total manufacturing population of Xiangjiang had gradually shrunk from one million at its peak to more than 200,000.

Film and television, shipping, and entrepot trade have also declined with the opening of the mainland, so decades later, this most beautiful pearl in the East has gradually become an ordinary city in the southeast of China.

But all this has nothing to do with Yang Weining, and now he is just a little turtle who has just come from the mainland.

"Wei Ning, how long are you going to stay in Xiangjiang this time?"

Lu Yuan smiled.

Lu Yuan is Lu Yang's half-brother.

Their father died early, and after liberation, Lu Yuan followed his mother to Xiangjiang, starting as a dock worker and gradually having his own industry.

Today, Luyuan has a Qida electronic trading company under its name, specializing in the operation of various shortage of active and passive components, such as IC chips, memory chips, diodes, transistors, capacitors, resistors, inductors, etc., and has established good cooperative relations with NXP, Texas Instruments, Nintendo (NS), ATMEL, Maxim, Intel and other well-known companies in the industry.

His products are widely used in communications, instrumentation, computers and peripherals, aerospace, consumer electronics and other fields, and he is one of the largest distributors of electronic components in East Asia.

At the same time, with the help of Luyang's relationship, Luyuan has also established good cooperative relations with some enterprises in the mainland, and even helped the mainland import many high-precision electronic components prohibited by the Batumi agreement.

To some extent, half of Qida Electronics' profits come from purchases in mainland China.

Because of this, after knowing Yang Weining's origin, the billionaire will personally go to the Shencheng Port to pick up Yang Weining.

Yang Weining said with a smile: "It depends on the situation, this time I came to Hong Kong mainly to register the PCT patent of AutoCAD, and I will submit the patent application report first." ”

"That's okay, tomorrow I'll help you contact the lawyers of Xiangjiang Stevenson Law Firm, this law firm is one of the top ten law firms in Xiangjiang, and we Qida Electronics have a deep cooperative relationship, I can help you with any needs when the time comes." ”

"Uncle Lu, thank you then. Yang Weining thanked him.

When he first came to Xiangjiang, having such an old Jianghu to help him could indeed save Yang Weining a lot of things.

Next, Lu Yuan introduced the customs of Xiangjiang to Yang Weining.

Although Yang Weining has never been to Xiangjiang, he has lived for two lives, and his human feelings are not bad, and he naturally responds to Lu Yuan, neither humble nor arrogant.

In particular, he came from the era of the information explosion in later generations, and received dozens of times the baptism of information than people in this era, and Lu Yuan can be regarded as well-informed, but sometimes he is still attracted by some of Yang Weining's wonderful views.

Lu Yuan looked at Yang Weining, and his evaluation of this young man in his heart increased a few points.

Lu Yuan has seen many people who come to Hong Kong from the mainland, whether they are the children of high-ranking cadres or ordinary people, when they came to Xiangjiang for the first time, there were few who were not shocked by the blossoming flowers of Xiangjiang.

Only Yang Weining, although he was wearing an old-fashioned shirt and trousers, his identity and the traffic of high-rise buildings on the streets of Xiangjiang did not make the other party's face show a little emotion.

is different from the pride disguised in inferiority, Yang Weining is neither humble nor arrogant in his words and deeds, and has a strong self-confidence between words, which is very different from the mainlanders in Lu Yuan's impression.

Walking through the bustling city, the Mercedes Benz soon came to Repulse Bay, the southern tip of Xiangjiang Island.

Repulse Bay is located in the south of Taiping Mountain on Xiangjiang Island, surrounded by mountains and seas, the bay is crescent-shaped, known as "the first bay in the world", also has the reputation of "Oriental Hawaii", is the most representative bay of Xiangjiang.

The slope here is gentle and the beach is long, the waves are calm, the water is clear and the sand is fine, the beach is wide and clean, warm in winter and cool in summer, the water temperature is between 16 degrees Celsius and 27 degrees Celsius, and it has always been a resort for Hong Kong people to spend time in summer and make tides.

Many villas and mansions are spread all over the slopes of the bay, including the mansions of well-known wealthy businessmen Li Jiacheng and Bao Yugang in Xiangjiang.

"Wei Ning, we're here!"

The Mercedes-Benz turned a corner, and Yang Weining saw a single-family villa facing the sea with a mountain back, the villa is not big, but the garden swimming pool is complete, according to the current housing prices in Xiangjiang, this villa is worth at least 50 million Hong Kong dollars.

The door of the villa slowly opened, Yang Weining and Lu Yuan got out of the car, and the driver drove directly into the villa garage.

At this time, a mature woman in her forties who still had charm came out of the villa, and when she saw Lu Yuan, the said, "Old Lu, you are back." ”

Lu Yuan introduced on the side: "Wei Ning, this is your Aunt Zhou Yun Zhou." ”

Yang Weining smiled: "Aunt Zhou is good." ”

The looked Yang Weining up and down, and said with a smile: "You are Wei Ning, I have heard the old road talk about you a long time ago, you must play for a few more days when you come to Xiangjiang this time, please come in." ”
