When Liu Jialing got up to go to the toilet in her pajamas, she found that He Qing was already sitting in the living room reading the newspaper early.

"I bought breakfast for you, I guess it's not cold if you eat it now!" He Qing raised his head and glanced at his roommate, then pouted towards the dining table, and quickly lowered his head and continued to read the newspaper.

Liu Jialing couldn't help but look up at the alarm clock on the wall, it was only a quarter past eight, and she couldn't help but be a little puzzled: "You're nervous, get up so early to read the newspaper!"

"I woke up early today, and when I went to sell breakfast, I passed by the newsstand, and I bought one or two copies by the way to pass the time!" He Qing said with some weakness, reaching out to put away all the newspapers on the coffee table.

"Are you sure there are only one or two copies, when did the boss of the Hong Kong newspaper become so kind, and the newspaper for two yuan a piece has such a thick stack!" Liu Jialing walked over with a smile, "Is our He Da movie star looking for movie reviews? How many newspapers have named you as a future actress!"

Today's major newspapers in Hong Kong are overwhelmingly covered with reports about "Bloody Battle of Taierzhuang", which premiered last night. Whether it is the huge premiere last night, or the cost of the film's 15 million investment, or the movie itself, reporters have countless topics to write about.

For He Qing, what she cares about most is the evaluation of her performance in the eyes of others. So she deliberately went out early in the morning and bought a copy of all the newspapers on the market. It's a pity that she has read countless reports, and there are very few mentions of her. Even if she is mentioned, most of them are mentioned in one sentence.

He Qing was originally a little depressed, but now Liu Jialing ruthlessly exposed her careful thoughts. So she couldn't wipe her face. simply became angry, and directly pounced on Liu Jialing on the sofa and tickled.

"Ahh You salty pig hands, you dare to take advantage of me!" Liu Jialing was accidentally touched by He Qing's chest. Immediately, he began to fight back without any scruples, and his hands were messing around with He Qing.

So two young and beautiful beauties screamed and started a melee on the sofa. But both of them ran out of strength until they ran out of energy, and they couldn't tell the winner. In the end, the two of them lay on the sofa together and giggled, not caring about the little spring light in their messy clothes.

"Ah Ling, I thought you didn't come back last night? What about that Xu Gongzi, Fu doesn't meet the standards of Prince Charming in your heart!" He Qing suddenly turned his head to look at Liu Jialing beside him, and asked with some gossip.

At the cocktail party after the movie last night, Liu Jialing got acquainted with a son-in-law surnamed Xu. That Xu Gongzi seemed to fall in love with Liu Jialing at first sight. And the gentleman invited her to have coffee with him.

"How can it be so fast, you think it's breeding piglets!" Liu Jialing glanced at her.

"Seeing that you have a peach blossom on your face, there must be a situation! Hurry up and confess, who is this Xu Gongzi sacred, let our family's Liu Da Beauty fall in love at first sight!" He Qing asked with bright eyes.

She knew that Liu Jialing's heart was actually very high, and ordinary men didn't look down on her. In the ATV training class before, several boys launched a pursuit offensive against her, but she politely refused.

"I've only met Achen for the first time, but his grandfather is very famous. He is the earliest boat king in Hong Kong, Mr. Xu Aizhou! By the way, Ah Heng's cousin and Li Sheng are still good friends!" Liu Jialing could not hide the slight excitement in her tone.

"Ah Heng, it's so affectionate, it seems that you caught a golden beetle son-in-law this time!" He Qing said with a smile. In fact, she hadn't heard who Xu Aizhou was.

"What a golden beetle son-in-law, what a terrible thing to say! Girls should be reserved, I just don't hate him. Can we come together. That depends on the fate in the future!" Liu Jialing looked positive.

"Well, look at the way you just looked like you just now. I'm afraid that even the soul has been snatched away by that Prince Xu, and I'm embarrassed to say 'reserved'! Don't say I didn't remind you. Cinderella's story is just in a fairy tale, you must keep your eyes open!" said He Zheng.

"Don't talk about me, let's talk about you and Li Sheng. Ah Heng and I left early last night, did you and Li Sheng meet later!" Liu Jialing didn't want to say more, so she simply changed the topic.

"I told you, my relationship with Li Sheng is really ordinary, and I can't even be considered friends. You say that we are unknown juniors, how can we be qualified to greet the richest man in the world! After you left, I was bored, and I will soon go home! Maybe they are just idle and bored this time, and they just played a little joke with us!" He Qing said helplessly.

It's just that although she said so, she still felt a little lonely in her heart. She didn't think about being a lover to the "God of Wealth Li", but what woman doesn't want to be extraordinary. Of course, He Qing, who has never experienced feelings, doesn't know that when she has emotions because of a man, it actually means the beginning of the fall.

"Ring-ring-ring-!"

Liu Jialing picked up the phone casually: "...... What are you looking for, she's here, I'm her roommate, may I ask who you are?...... Okay, wait a minute, I'll call her to answer the phone!"

Liu Jialing did not hand the phone directly to He Qing, but covered the microphone with one hand, and then gently leaned into He Qing's ear and said: "It may be a call from Li Sheng, you must take advantage of the opportunity, do you know!"

He Qing glanced at her and took the phone from Carina Lau's hand, "Hey, hello, I am He Qing!"

"Hello Shi Jiatong, your dress last night was very beautiful!" Li Xuan said with a chuckle while holding a big brother at the other end.

"Is there anything you want me to do?" He Qing said in a very flat tone. But only she knew that her heartbeat at this moment had inexplicably begun to accelerate. Shi Jiatong is the name of the schoolgirl she played in the movie "Blood Battle in Taierzhuang".

"Can't I call you if it's okay, I'm your boss!" Li Xuan continued to tease.

"If it's okay, I'll hang up first!" He Qing said lightly, and didn't pay attention to Liu Jialing on the side who kept gesturing to her.

"Haha, how can it be okay, hurry up and take a taxi to Yuen Long!" Li Xuan reported a specific address. Then he hung up the phone without waiting for the other party to answer.

Liu Jialing saw He Qing hang up the microphone, and immediately pounced like a curious baby. There was a glint of gossip in his eyes: "Is Li Sheng looking for you for a date?"

"He asked me to go to Yuen Long now, do you think that's the place to go on a date!" He Qing gestured with his finger. poked Liu Jialing's pink face that was about to stick to herself.

"Yuen Long, it's so romantic to escape the hustle and bustle of the city!" Liu Jialing said with envy.

He Qing thinks that this nymphomaniac is hopeless, and Yuen Long is the countryside of Hong Kong. If a boy called Liu Jialing now and asked her to drive twenty or thirty kilometers to Yuen Long from the city to meet, Liu Jialing would definitely directly pull the other party into the blacklist. But at this moment, in Liu Jialing's mouth, Yuen Long can actually be associated with romance.

"Eh, why are you still stunned. Hurry up and change your clothes! Since it's a date in Yuen Long, you don't need to dress too formally, you can be casual, but the makeup on your face still needs to be painted beautifully!" Liu Jialing pulled her up and sat on the sofa, and didn't ask her if she wanted to go at all.

It was a date with the "God of Wealth Lee", and others didn't have the opportunity to go yet. In a charity auction of the East China Sea Foundation, a very special lot was launched, and that was the opportunity to have lunch with Li Xuan.

As a result, this special opportunity was finally taken by a young entrepreneur in the United States. Sold for $550,000. This is equivalent to the salary of an ordinary Hong Kong person for a hundred years, just to have a meal with Li Xuan.

Li Xuan naturally went to Yuen Long not to escape the hustle and bustle of the city, but to investigate. In another time and space, Hong Kong's industry was in the mid-to-late 80s. Almost all of them moved north to the interior.

The direct impact of industrial hollowing out on Hong Kong is the reduction of jobs at the bottom, and hundreds of thousands of workers who used to work in garment factories, toy factories, and electronic watch factories have lost their jobs. Relapsed into extreme poverty.

Although Hong Kong has also been seeking to transform, vigorously developing tertiary industries such as the tourism service industry. However, none of this can completely replace the supporting role of industry in Hong Kong society. In particular, Hong Kong's property market has ushered in a golden decade since 1985.

The real estate boom has also created a number of new jobs. But soaring housing prices have also pushed up the city's cost of living, directly sending the city's economy into a rapid round of inflation.

And the appearance of Li Xuan's butterfly has actually had the greatest impact on Hong Kong. After the reform and opening up of the mainland, Hong Kong's industry still inevitably began to move northward. But because of the birth of the Eastern Bloc, while the old factories are constantly closing, new factories are also popping up.

The bosses of those garment factories, toy factories, and electronic watch factories have gone to the mainland to set up factories one after another, but in the factories they vacated, a number of newborn electronic factories have quickly emerged.

The Oriental Group has gradually moved RCA's consumer electronics such as televisions, picture tubes, and radios from North America, Mexico, and Asia to deep-sea special zones with lower production costs.

However, the two most important industries of the Oriental Group, the production of computers and game consoles, remained firmly in Hong Kong. According to the forecast of relevant data, several major foundries in Hong Kong will produce more than 2 million ABC series computers for Aikang this year, more than 1.5 million arcade machines for Oriental Game Company, and more than 5 million FC game consoles.

This will be a huge industry with a total output value of up to 30 billion Hong Kong dollars, although the core components such as chips are basically imported from outside. However, Hong Kong's electronics industry can still share the output value of nearly 10 billion Hong Kong dollars from this huge cake.

Industries such as computers and game consoles remained in Hong Kong and did not move north, thanks to the strict restrictions imposed on China by the Batumi organization. ERM processors, such as those used to make the ABC series of computers, are subject to cumbersome approvals before they are allowed to be sold in small quantities to the Chinese market. Therefore, several foundries that undertake orders for the production of personal computers and game consoles are naturally unable to build factories in China.

Therefore, because of the emergence of the Eastern Bloc, Hong Kong's industry did not shrink as rapidly as it used to be, but unconsciously completed a round of industrial upgrading. It has shifted from exporting low-profit, low-tech light industrial products such as clothing and toys to exporting high-tech electronic products such as computers and game consoles.

And Li Xuan remembered that Lenovo began to produce computers on a large scale in the later generations, around 94 or 95. In other words, Batumi will wait almost a decade before China will lift import restrictions on chips and other products. This also means that Li Xuan has actually won ten more years of survival for Hong Kong's industry.

And because Hong Kong has become one of the world's largest computer assembly and production bases, a large number of upstream parts suppliers have begun to consider the issue of investing and building factories in Hong Kong in the near future.

For example, Seagate Technology, one of the most important hard disk suppliers for ABC series computers, has started construction of its first overseas production plant in Tuen Mun, which can produce 1 million 5.25-inch hard drives per year.

Of course, Seagate Technology is the latest to react because it has a stake in the Eastern Group. Other component suppliers of the Oriental Group have also put the plan of building a factory in Hong Kong on the agenda. After all, this can reduce most of the logistics costs, and Hong Kong's labor costs are much lower than those in the United States and Japan.

However, Hong Kong is not without disadvantages, as a city with little land and many people, and a large part of the Hong Kong government's finances come from land sales revenue, so Hong Kong's land prices are considered to be inflated.

A few years ago, due to political reasons, Hong Kong's real estate industry suffered a serious collapse. However, with the final agreement between China and the UK on the Hong Kong issue last year, Hong Kong's future has begun to become clearer, and Hong Kong's real estate market has begun to gradually recover. The most obvious manifestation of this is that the area of land that the Hong Kong government agreed to sell in the first half of this year is much higher than the same period in the previous two years.

Moreover, Hong Kong's land prices have also come out of the trough and are rising again. And Hong Kong's expensive land prices are likely to scare away those companies that originally planned to invest in Hong Kong, which is naturally not good news for the Eastern Group.

In another time and space, after the dust settled on the Hong Kong issue, British-funded enterprises led by Jardine Matheson began to gradually retreat, while Chinese-funded enterprises began to gradually become the main body of Hong Kong's economy. Real estate tycoons like Li Jiacheng, Li Zhaoji, and Guo Desheng began to expand their wealth like a balloon in the decade after 85 years.

However, in 1985, British capital had no intention of fighting, Chinese capital was just about to move, and the Hong Kong government, which had entered the transitional era, was beginning the initial run-in with Chinese mainland. This time can be described as a period of low ebb for the real estate industry and its influence on the entire Hong Kong society.

Li Xuan does not think that he has the ability to buck the trend and change the speed of Hong Kong's property prices in the future, but he can take this opportunity to make some changes in his favor.

So Li Xuan set his sights on a place across the sea from the Shekou Industrial Zone of the Deep Sea Special Zone! (To be continued......
