Chapter 544: Preparatory Committee

After meeting with Margaret Thatcher, Gu Chen returned to the hotel, dressed up with Pan Lingling, and came to Oxford Street, a famous commercial street in London, Oxford Street is a concentration of world-class famous stores, brand flagships include Marks & Spencer, HMV, DisneyStore, Adidas Sporting Goods, etc., there are more than 300 large shopping malls gathered on this street, which is a must-visit place for tourists to London.

Shopping is always a woman's favorite, Pan Lingling is no exception, the last time in the UK, the two were just 'acquaintance' relationships, not even friends, Pan Lingling naturally couldn't let go, and the things he bought when shopping in Bath were basically decided by Gu Chen. This time it's different, the relationship between the two is so close that it's a 'negative distance', how can she have any scruples, not to mention that she knows that no matter how much money she has, it may not even be a dime a dozen to Gu Chen, and she almost let the shopping guide pick it up when she sees what she likes.

When they returned to the hotel, each bodyguard had at least a dozen shopping bags in their hands, including clothes, shoes, jewelry, handbags, cosmetics, etc., containing almost everything a woman liked.

Originally, Pan Lingling also wanted to choose a few sets of clothes for Gu Chen, but Gu Chen's clothes were all hand-customized, so he dispelled this idea and concentrated on buying what he liked. In addition to her, Monica and Zhao Meixuan, who went out with them, also bought a lot of things.

After accompanying the beauty to go shopping, Gu Chen went out to visit a few people in the afternoon, these people are all real upper-class figures in Britain, and they have a huge industry. There are also aristocratic titles handed down from the family, and they have extraordinary influence in British business and politics.

The next day, Gu Chen set off to various places to inspect the various companies of Tang Dynasty Holdings in the United Kingdom. This is a routine inspection, and he inspects it twice a year, basically once at the end of the year and once at the end of the year. Among the many companies he has invested in the UK, Jaguar Motor Group, Rolls-Royce Engines and British Power Grid have begun to reap his benefits; The British Infrastructure Company is still in the investment stage, and if it wants to get a return, I am afraid it will have to wait a few years. However, the return on infrastructure investment is inherently slow and long-lasting.

After spending two days inspecting several companies, he revisited his hometown with Pan Lingling and came to Bath. It's still the hot spring hotel, it's still the same room, but this time Pan Lingling is different from the last time's worry, fear and even fear, and the sound of women's laughter and playing in the water can be heard from time to time in the steaming hot spring. Occasionally, you can hear the seductive gasps of ecstasy and the crash of flesh......

Sweet and good times always go by quickly. When Pan Lingling opened her eyes, it was already the third day of her visit to Bath, and she looked at the empty bed beside her, she touched it gently, as if she could still feel the residual body temperature on it, and couldn't help but show a happy smile on her face, and then recalled what she had experienced in this room last night and the past two days, and her smile gradually smeared a layer of shyness. She never thought that she could be so prodigal and do anything. But that feeling of being completely open to accepting, pandering, and loving a man is really good. She found herself really overwhelmed.

After lying on the bed, she put on a white shirt that Gu Chen hung on the hanger next to her, which was vacuum, a pair of slender legs were exposed to the air, and she didn't even wear slippers, so she walked out of the room, and as soon as she walked to the living room, she heard the movement from the kitchen, and walked over to see that a man wearing only a pair of big pants, a naked and sturdy upper body, and an apron in front of him was busy in the kitchen.

Hearing the slight footsteps behind him, Gu Chen was about to turn his head when he was hugged from behind: "Husband, I suddenly found that I love you so much." ”

Gu Chen turned around, looked at the beautiful face close at hand, smiled slightly, and teased: "Love me now, you didn't love me before?" ”

Pan Lingling said coquettishly: "You know that people don't mean this, I hate it to death, I'll go back to the room." After speaking, he was about to turn around and leave, but he was stopped by Gu Chen, looked down at Pan Lingling's angry outfit, Gu Chen's hand behind Pan Lingling also began to be irregular, but he said with a smile: "Okay, it's all my fault, let's go to the restaurant and sit down first, and we can have breakfast soon." ”

Pan Lingling really wants to go back to the room, it's just a woman's coquettishness, hearing Gu Chen say this, he looked at the things on the gas stove curiously, he didn't pay attention to it just now, and at this time, he suddenly felt a fragrance coming to his nose: "It's so fragrant, husband, what are you doing?" ”

"Preserved egg and lean porridge, this is a hotel, there is no way to be too complicated, you can only make something simple." Gu Chen picked up the spoon and stirred it lightly a few times to prevent it from sticking to the pot.

Pan Lingling leaned on Gu Chen's body and said with a happy face: "Husband, thank you, it's the first time that a man has specially made breakfast for me." ”

"Alright." Gu Chen turned off the gas and patted Pan Lingling's buttocks: "Go and sit down, how about letting you taste my craftsmanship." ”

Pan Lingling smiled sweetly, walked over quickly and sat down at the dining table: "The media has blown your cooking skills so well, I want to see if it's true." ”

Gu Chen put the pot on a mat on the dining table, then returned to the kitchen, brought a bowl and spoon, and personally gave Pan Lingling a bowl of porridge.

Pan Lingling's eyes were always on Gu Chen throughout the whole process, with a smile called 'happiness' on his face.

……

After a warm and pleasant breakfast, Gu Chen and Pan Lingling set off back to London, after more than an hour's drive, the two returned to London, and stayed until half past two in the afternoon, Gu Chen once again came to the Prime Minister's official residence at No. 10 Downing Street, still in the Prime Minister's office, he and Margaret Thatcher sat on the sofa across the table, with steaming coffee in front of them, exactly the same as the scene that day.

"I heard that Mr. Gu just went to Bath for a two-day pleasant vacation?"

"Bath is a great place, this is the second time I've been there, and I think Madame can go there for a soak in the hot springs if she has time, it's definitely a great treat."

"Hehe, I want to go too, but the busy business is holding me back, and maybe I will only have the opportunity to go there when I retire."

"That's a shame."

"No way, this is the law of everything in the world, if you want to have a harvest, you have to pay." Mrs. Thatcher seemed to mean something, paused, and finally got to the point: "In the past few days, my cabinet and I have had an in-depth discussion about your proposal, and most people think it can be tried, but you know that this is not an easy task, it means that Britain will start a diplomatic game with China, which will involve many aspects, and may even threaten the economic interests of the United Kingdom, so ...... You should know what I mean. ”

It's just that the price he gave is too low, how could Gu Chen not understand, but when he heard that Mrs. Thatcher agreed with him, he was still very excited in his heart, of course, he didn't come out: "I understand, before talking about this issue, Madame might as well listen to my thoughts on forming this internal guard force." Seeing that Margaret Thatcher did not object, he continued: "First of all, the establishment of a preparatory committee, the chairman of the committee, the British side or the Chinese personnel have no opinion, but the chairman only has the power of overall planning and coordination, but does not have the power to appoint and dismiss personnel. There will be seven members under the chairman, one each from the British side and one from the Chinese side, and the remaining five seats will be decided by me. ”

"The seven commissioners will decide on the final personnel and structure of the force. Second, the size of the force is tentatively set at 5,000 people, and when it is formed, it will be mainly the army, and the navy and air force will be retained. Personnel are on a contract basis, and the first personnel can be drawn from the Police's Mobile Unit. ”

"At present, the Hong Kong police mobile force is about 2,000 people, and if the internal security force is formed, there is no need for the police to retain such a large number of mobile forces, and 1,000 people can be transferred from it as the backbone of the internal security force, so as to achieve the goal of quickly forming an army."

"This is my initial idea, and we will negotiate together when the Chinese government agrees, I wonder if Madame thinks there is a problem?"

Mrs. Thatcher did not answer directly, but asked: "If China agrees with this idea, who does Mr. Gu plan to give the five places to?" ”

Gu Chen smiled slightly, he didn't think about hiding it, and he only showed his chips to avoid the British government turning its face and denying people at that time: "I definitely want to keep one myself, and the remaining four are Li Jiacheng, Fok Yingdong, Li Zhaoji and Ho Hongsen." ”

Hearing this, Mrs. Thatcher suddenly knew in her heart that Gu Chen had formed an alliance with several of the top richest people in Hong Kong, yes, before coming to the UK, after a joint fund board meeting, Gu Chen had already given his plan to Li Jiacheng and the four of them, and invited the four of them to join, but none of the four agreed on the spot, and it was not until the next day that he got a reply, and it was obvious that all four of them agreed.

Since ancient times, politics and business have never been separated, and this is an opportunity to greatly increase their influence in Hong Kong, and they have no reason to refuse. In addition, people like Li Jiacheng, Lee Zhaoji, and Ho Hongsen may not be worried about Hong Kong's imminent return to China, especially since there was such a strict political violence incident in the first half of this year, which made them even more worried, and they had to make plans early.

If such an army is in their hands, it can also give them some more security guarantees. As for why Gu Chen didn't eat alone, but invited Li Jiacheng and the four of them to join, because Gu Chen understood a truth - people who eat alone will definitely attract jealousy, maybe some people will secretly make stumbling blocks, only by enlisting some powerful people to be their own arms, can they go further and more steadily.
