At the beginning of the new year, the State Council issued a circular on issues related to the adjustment of the correct policy for grain purchase and sales.

Ordinary people have a bit of a hard time reading the documents, but in the vernacular, it is one step closer to bidding farewell to the historical stage of food stamps and food books.

Last year, the external situation was a chaotic mess, the international pressure was as great as Mount Tai, and domestic industry and commerce were almost collapsing.

But God is not starving to death, and agriculture has ushered in another bumper harvest.

One billion peasants, with their most solid chests, have supported the sky and the earth in China.

The total grain output reached 435 million tons, an increase of 6.7 percent over the previous year and a new record high.

The production of cotton, oil and sugar, as well as the production of vegetables and fruits, were also harvested.

This gave the country enough confidence to face the rampant collapse theory.

At this moment, no scholar in the world believes that China can survive the current hurdle.

Everyone is looking at the joke, thinking that the West does not need to dispatch aircraft and artillery at all, as long as it watches, it can see the largest socialist country after the woolly bear collapse and perish on its own......

Including the first generation of public intellectuals and economists in China, they openly published articles in newspapers that "it is time to make a trade-off".

They devoutly believe in the book "The End of History" written by the American scholar Fukuyama, and believe that Fukuyama's view is about to be realized, that is, there is only one way for the development of human political history, that is, the market economy and the correct governance system of the West.

At this time, when the Gulf War broke out, the beautiful country crossed 10,000 miles, flew 100,000 sorties, dropped 90,000 tons of bombs, launched 288 Tomahawk cruise missiles and 35 air-launched cruise missiles, and used a series of the latest aircraft and various precision-guided weapons to carry out multi-directional, multi-wave, and high-intensity sustained air strikes on selected targets.

From the side, it fueled the arrogance of those who knelt down and surrendered.

It's as if those aircraft missiles were fired by their own fathers, and there is an honor.

In the face of this situation, Gu pointed out during his inspection in Shenghai: Shenghai is late to open, so you have to work hard! Grasp the development of Pudong and do not waver until it is completed. I hope that the people of Shenghai will be more emancipated, bolder and faster. At the same time, he also pointed out: Don't think that planning is socialism and the market is capitalism, but that they are both means, and the market can also serve socialism.

It can be regarded as a public response to the chaos of people's hearts.

However, the effect of this conversation was not very good......

But, what does this have to do with Li Yuan at this moment?

On the night of the Lunar New Year in 1991, Li Gui, who was already old and could no longer get out of bed, suddenly became energetic.

With the support of Li's mother, he came out of the bedroom and walked to his Taishi chair and sat down.

The eight sons of the Li family, all the grandchildren, and the great-grandchildren were all stunned, Li Yuan was the first to react, looked at his old father who was looking at him with a smile, and walked a few steps forward......

Li Gui didn't look at others, just stared at Li Yuan and said, "Old man, my day has come." It's good, no regrets. When I die, don't publicize it, don't dig a grave, just cremate it, scatter the ashes in half of the Qin family's crops, and half of it will be taken back to Hong Kong Island and scattered on the mountain behind your house. Aren't all the old graves in the old capital flattened? Don't make trouble with those who are false. ”

Li Yuan nodded slowly, looked at his father and responded, "Dad, I remember." ”

Li Gui looked at his young son with pity, and said, "After you recovered from your illness that year, your mind became heavier and heavier. looked at the giggling, and put the whole family in my heart, as if I wanted to repay the favor. Boss, what's the grace, you are the eldest of our family. In the future, you just take care of your wife, don't be too tired, you don't owe anyone. Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and they can manage one generation and two generations, but they can't manage three or four generations. If you hurt them so badly, they won't hurt them. ”

Li Yuan nodded with red eyes and said, "Dad, I know." ”

After Li Gui glanced at his youngest son again, he looked at his eldest son Li Chi and said, "In the future, the children at home don't have to run back every year, let them celebrate the New Year with their comrades in their own units." Doing your job well is better than anything else. Set up good rules, the old man is soft-hearted, you have to help him take care of it. ”

Li Chi's hair was almost white, and he nodded with tears at this time.

After Li Gui finished speaking, his eyes looked at Li Kun and other eldest grandsons again, and finally looked at Li's mother, her speech was already slurred, and said with a smile: "Meiju, thank you, take good care......"

Mother Li took a black and white checkered handkerchief, wiped her face, and looked up again, her wife had closed her eyes forever, and the old lady called "his father" and cried.

"Dad!"

"Grandpa!"

"Grandpa!"

For a while, the Li family cried loudly.

Li Yuan stood there quietly, watching the thin Li Gui sit on the Taishi chair, unable to move again......

……

Haizi, Flower Hall.

After feeding Cao Lao the medicine, Qin Daxue said, "Mother Cao, you have a good rest, I'll go back first." ”

Every winter and spring, Cao Lao's health is not good.

Cao Lao waved his hand and said, "I don't care, Xiaoxue, you did the right thing." Identify the right path, and stick to it to the end. ”

Qin Daxue was idle again, because of his strong insistence on the change, which surprised many people.

Because when the original price broke through, Qin Daxue slapped the table several times to deny it, and even dared to loudly contradict it in the rice grain alley, and most people thought that she had turned to the opposite side at that time.

However, now that the situation outside is so difficult, even the group of experts who instigated to break through the price barrier have disappeared, and they dare not publicly make any remarks in support of the reform, because this has already involved major issues of right and wrong.

Historically, many people have gone to the cowshed for many years to experience life because of their stance on this issue.

No one expected that at this time, Qin Daxue's support for the reform would be tough to the point of daring to be the enemy of the world.

But isn't it because of the reform that polar bears are what they are now?

Does China have to repeat this tragedy?

It's okay for ordinary people to scream like this, but Qin Daxue has Cao Lao behind her, and her voice can't be easily ignored even by those main responsible comrades.

The trouble reached the point of stalemate, and in the end, it was Dong Lao who spoke, asking Qin Daxue to take care of Cao Lao first, and put Cao Lao's body first.

Qin Daxue didn't have anything else to say.

At this moment, hearing the words of Old Cao Guarding the calf, Qin Daxue held the old man's hand and said ashamedly: "I'm causing you trouble again." Without you behind me, I wouldn't have dared to be so straight. ”

Cao Lao smiled and said, "You dare, how can you ever regret this?" However, again, don't rush, take a look again. Xiaoxue, Xiao Li's father died, when will there be a funeral? I asked the staff to deliver a wreath on my behalf to show my gratitude. ”

Qin Daxue shook her head and said: "My father-in-law's opinion before his death, don't erect a monument, don't erect a grave, and don't let it be done." Half of the ashes were scattered in the fields of Qinjiazhuang, and half were taken to Hong Kong Island by Li Yuan and scattered on the mountain behind the house, everything was simple. ”

Cao Lao smiled: "In the end, it is the older generation of proletarians, when Cheng Yuan first left, the words left were similar, but the old ones refused, and I couldn't help it." But you remember, when I'm gone, I must do the same, I must be simple, you must stick to the principles, I believe in you. However, even so, the wreath should be given as a token of appreciation. Thank you to him for raising such a good child, including you. ”

Qin Daxue nodded and said, "I know, thank you Mother Cao." ”

Cao Lao said: "Xiao Li is sad, right?" ”

Qin Daxue sighed and smiled: "He's okay, persuade my mother-in-law every day to make the old lady happy." He said that from the day everyone is born, they are actually going to die. Therefore, there is a saying, which is called life to death. Living every day well is more reassuring to those who go than indulging in sadness. ”

Cao Lao shook his head and said: "This is also a person who can endure hardships, and it hurts in my heart." ”

Qin Daxue paused, and said with a wry smile: "I can't see his thoughts, but Jiu'er burst into tears as soon as she saw her father, saying that her father's heart was being cut by a knife." ”

Cao Lao understood and sighed: "If he weren't such a person, you wouldn't recognize him like this." Okay, don't stay with me, I'm sleepy after taking medicine, you go back and stand there. As a daughter-in-law, you must also do your filial piety. It's also a good thing that you're free now, otherwise there will be a lot more people joining in the fun. ”

Qin Daxue smiled, got up and covered the quilt for Cao Lao, and turned to leave.

……

The eighth day of the first month.

The wreath of the courtyard in the middle of Li Yuan, from the wings on both sides of the Yin'an Palace, has been placed out of the lion courtyard, and then the gate of the palace.

It was unexpected by everyone, but it seemed to make sense.

After the offices of Cao, Gu, Dong, Liu, Nie and many other veteran comrades sent wreaths one after another, the offices of Sui Lao, Zhao Junxun and other major comrades also sent wreaths.

Then the various departments below were dispatched......

In addition, Wang Shixiang's group of old Beijing playmates also sent wreaths.

The most surprising thing is that on Hong Kong Island, not only wreaths were sent, but also 12 top tycoons such as Michael Gao, Li Jiacheng, Li Zhaoji, Zheng Yutong, Run Run Shaw, and He Gambling Wang, all flew from Hong Kong Island to the capital uninvited, and stayed at the State Guesthouse, just to attend the funeral of Li's father tomorrow.

And the members of the Datang Management Committee, as well as many Hong Kong Island celebrities, actually came a large number of them, wearing black suits and hanging white flowers, staying in the Beijing Hotel, waiting for the last trip to the boss's family tomorrow.

Although Hong Kong Island has long been fully westernized, it still retains a richer etiquette than the mainland in this regard.

After the beautiful country spectators sent people to send the wreaths of the Rockefeller family, the wreaths of the DuPont family, and the wreaths of the Lancaster family sent by the cattle and cattle spectators, things could no longer be kept a low profile.

Mei Changning came to the door, almost broke his mouth, persuaded Li Yuan to settle the old man in the cemetery, and the descendants could worship, and arranged a memorial service in the hall.

In that most famous cemetery, there are actually restrictions on the level of people who want to enter, and only comrades above the county and regimental level can enter, and Li Gui is obviously not qualified.

Li Yuan didn't react, and sat there without saying a word, ignoring it.

In the end, Qin Daxue said to Mei Changning: "Meibu, don't persuade me, the old man of our family has been down-to-earth and low-key all his life, and the old man didn't fight for the great credit of the pressurized water well back then, so he let it out." The most cherished thing in my life is the old man's inscription, but he never takes it out to show off. Before leaving, I told you not to be quiet, and to keep a low profile and be simple. ”

Mei Changning rubbed his eyebrows and said, "But tomorrow many people are waiting to send the last ride." After a pause, he said, "Director Qin, you should know that at the private level, the contact between the West and us is basically interrupted. This is the first time it has been ...... Maybe it's an icebreaker. ”

Qin Daxue said in a deep voice: "What they value is the Li family on Hong Kong Island, not the mainland. Even on foreign affairs issues, it is necessary to be upright. ”

This is already a very unceremonious reprimand.

Li Xing hurriedly said: "Datang has arranged enough vehicles, and if you want to send grandpa on the last trip tomorrow, you can take a car to Qinjiazhuang without delay." ”

Mei Changning was bored, and sighed: "Okay, okay, okay." Then he looked at Li Yuan, who had been silent, and scolded with a smile: "Dog, how did you persuade me at the beginning, why didn't you persuade me now?" The knife didn't fall on him, isn't it light to say in the cool air? ”

After the death of his old father and mother, he was also sad and unwilling to see people, and every time he burst into tears, it was his daughter Jingzi who called Li Yuan, Li Yuan flew from Hong Kong Island to Sijiu City, and it was estimated that he was holding back his anger and turned it into harsh language, and scolded him for being bloody.

Why such a great proletarian actually gave birth to such a crying sissy son, and there is such a great woman as Xue Lao, who has been materialistic all her life, and her son is actually a crazy man......

Why, I woke him up.

The two drank a lot of wine, and Li Yuan walked away.

Feng Shui takes turns, and today is also the day when Mei Changning persuades Li Yuan.

But in the end, there are more temperances than Li Yuan, and in the midst of everyone's frowning, he hugged Li Yuan with his left arm and said, "You still have the old lady here, be filial, don't let the old lady worry." Stronger than me, I have nothing left. ”

With that, he turned around and strode away.

If you don't go, you can't go, Li Yuan's sadness is too heavy, and he won't be able to stand it if he doesn't leave.

This person, the more you get along, the more you feel that it is worth intersecting, and the human touch on her body is too heavy.

Unlike some people, who have more power and wealth, but they have less and less human touch......

……

The ninth day of the first month.

A minibus used as a hearse to carry Li Gui and the eight brothers of the Li family to the funeral home, and the eight brothers cried when they witnessed their father being sent to the crematorium.

At this time, what kind of decency and identity are already outside the body.

All they know is that their father, who stood up for them, went to ......

An hour and a half later, the hearse joined a long convoy of motorrads and drove towards Qinjiazhuang.

At the head of the Li family, in the cry of the sky, the eight brothers of the Li family scattered their father's ashes in the field......

"Dr. Lee, mourn."

After bowing to the dirt one by one, many Hong Kong Island tycoons shook hands with Li Yuan in mourning.

Li Yuan didn't say anything, bowed and returned the salute, and everyone on Hong Kong Island sighed, and after condolences to Li's mother and others, they left by car.

Many executives and superstars were thanked and sent away by Li Xing, Li Yuan, Zhao Yazhi, etc.

After returning to the palace, the family first offered the other half of the ashes in the Yin'an Palace, and later brought them back when Li Yuan went to Hong Kong Island.

"Mom, will you come with me to live on Hong Kong Island for a while?"

In front of his mother, Li Yuan was silent and silent as he was outside, and smiled like no one else.

Seeing Mother Li shaking her head, Li Yuan smiled and said, "Big brother, they will also go." The weather on Hong Kong Island is good now, how about we go to Sai Kung for seafood barbecue? Then go and shoot two more episodes of the TV series! ”

Mother Li looked at her youngest son and said softly, "Boss, are you hungry?" ”

Li Yuan only felt like someone had punched him in the nose, and as soon as his nose was sore, tears fell down.

Mother Li smiled and patted her son's hand and said, "Xiao Qi said that you haven't eaten or drunk for several days, how can this work?" I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me. People are old, the old people have a day when they get old, and they used to say that the old people can live for 10,000 years, but they left at eighty-three. Your father is still alive to ninety, enough to pay for himself. Zhizi Mo Ruo's father, you see that before your father left, Shan Men said a few words to you, and you knew that you must be uncomfortable in your heart. No matter how uncomfortable it is, you have to take care of yourself. ”

After Li Yuan lowered his head and wiped his face, he raised his head and smiled: "No." Just think about something...... Mom, I'm serious. You go too, the eldest brother, the second brother, the third brother, they all go. Let's go to the sea to touch the small fish, you bring us noodles and fried dried fish to eat. Like when I was a kid. ”

Mother Li held her son's hand and said, "Didn't your father say it, you live your own life for two years, don't keep thinking about your family." I don't want to go anywhere, so I live here. Your eldest brother and they also live here, so they go out for a walk when they have nothing to do. I'm in good health, and I'll be able to live another five years. Wait for the year after tomorrow, and we'll go over and play again. ”

The old lady wept in her heart, the old man just left, and she was definitely reluctant to go far, and would often go home to see. The house can't be empty, no one guards the house, no one cooks......

Li Chi frowned at Li Yuan and said, "Go back quickly, Tang Yuan can't answer a hundred calls a day." You are a father, and you can't do everything to your children. Children are so difficult, we don't understand, we can't help, you don't care about being a father, and it's not like words. Don't be foolish, go back. We are at home, and so are the heavy snow and the country. ”

Li Jiang hugged his younger brother and said with a smile: "What's the matter, do you think that the second brother is old or useless?" ”

Several other elder brothers also came over in turn, patted their younger brother on the shoulder, and persuaded him: "Boss, go back." ”

"Okay."

……

After returning to Hong Kong Island from the mainland, Li Yuan did quickly get rid of his grief and depression, and first went to do a physical examination for the tycoons who mourned.

Guo Desheng, one of the four real estate kings on Hong Kong Island, was hung up last year, and the charter king couldn't hold out for a few days.

At the beginning, the charter king was desperately hoping to ask Li Yuan to take care of him, and even was willing to deposit 500 million Hong Kong dollars in the most difficult time for Hang Seng.

But Li Yuan still refused, and then formed an immortal bureau.

If these super-rich people would still be skeptical back then, no one will doubt whether this immortal bureau is reliable or not.

The elder Rowland has lived to be 92 years old, and Run Run Shaw is 82 years old, and it is said that he spent the night with two Miss Hong Kong Island last Christmas......

Each of the twelve immortals is in good health.

This is the reason why they put down their identities, made such a big move, and set off to the mainland to mourn an old man in the countryside who they never met.

"Doctor Li, I'm sorry I couldn't go to the mainland to attend Ling Zun's funeral."

In the mansion of No. 79 Deep Water Bay, Zhuang Yueming served Li Yuan a cup of tea and said apologetically.

Li Yuan smiled and said, "Mrs. Li, it's okay." ”

There was a girl standing behind Zhuang Yueming, and she felt a little strange when she heard this title......

Zhuang Yueming's dignified face also flashed a touch of embarrassment, and then she was relieved, she was already a little used to Li Yuan's promotion of narrowness.

After Li Jiacheng changed his clothes and came out accompanied by his eldest son Li Zeju, he smiled and said, "Trouble Doctor Li." I look forward to this day every year, and after Dr. Li's acupuncture and massage, I feel that the fatigue and dullness accumulated in the past year have dissipated. Dr. Lee, I have a reluctant request......"

Li Yuan drank tea and said with a smile: "If it is requested for your wife, then forget it." ”

Li Jiacheng said with a straight face: "Doctor Li, I am willing to pay double the money." He hurriedly added: "This is definitely not disrespecting Dr. Li, now everyone knows that in terms of family background, the Li family of Datang is the absolute richest man on Hong Kong Island." Even those British-funded foreign firms, today's cash is definitely not as good as Datang. The price only represents our sincerity. ”

Li Yuan shook his head helplessly and said, "Old Li, you still underestimate me." With my friendship with Miss Zhuang, I can really help, how can I collect money? Miss Zhuang was born with a heart disease, and if it wasn't for the fact that I have used needles twice a year in the past two years, she may not be able to stand here today. Miss Zhuang, rest well, be less angry, and be able to hold your grandson in the future. Otherwise......"

Zhuang Yueming's face turned pale when she heard this, and she nodded slowly and smiled: "Thank you, Doctor Li." ”

Li Yuan said: "Go, rest and go." I'll show you again in the fall, and there will be no problem in ten years. Ten years later...... Ten years later. ”

Zhuang Yueming breathed a sigh of relief, thanked him again, and went back upstairs to rest with the girls around him.

That is Li Zeju's object, called Wang Fuxin.

Hey, the reason why this girl with an average family background and average appearance can become the princess of Changhe is not because the two fell in love at first sight as announced to the public.

Love at first sight comes from being amazing, Li Zeju, a scumbag, what kind of beauty has he never seen, an ordinary girl, how amazing can he be?

In fact, under the guidance of Chen Bo, the royal feng shui master around Li Jiacheng, the two of them are extremely compatible.

Feng Shui is a doorway, it's really hard to say whether it's true or not.

Anyway, Li Cucumber's experience over the years has been mostly guided by his royal feng shui master Chen Bo.

After Zhuang Yueming went upstairs, Li Jiacheng touched the top of his sparse hair, and always felt a little cucumber-colored......

Of course, this kind of thinking is only for self-deprecation, and he understands that this is Li Yuan deliberately teasing him.

Looking at Li Yuan, who was clearly only ten years younger but looked more than thirty years younger, Li Jiacheng said enviously: "If I can know how to maintain health like Dr. Li, be so young and healthy, and spend more money, I am willing!" ”

Li Yuan glanced at him and said, "Do you know who in the Immortal Bureau can live the longest?" ”

Li Jiacheng still remembers: "Sixth uncle? ”

Li Yuan nodded and said, "Sixth Uncle Shao is really a lucky man, originally I could only conclude that he would definitely live past ninety, and maybe one hundred." But seeing you again in the past few years, looking at his complexion and listening to his pulse, I am sure that he can live more than a hundred, and more than that. Uncle Shao may become the longest-lived billionaire on Hong Kong Island. The annual donation of charity, I don't know if it makes him feel good, or if he can really accumulate good fortune, in short, that one is lucky. Lao Li, don't believe this. Learn from him to donate a few years of rural teaching buildings and a few hospitals to try. I also want you to live a few more years, and when you live to be 100 years old, you will have to pay more than 100 million yuan a year, and I will make a lot of money. ”

Li Jiacheng didn't think too much, so he nodded and said, "I'll arrange it this year." ”

Li Zeju suddenly said: "Uncle Li, Wanwan media said that Datang Financial has swept away at least $20 billion in the Wanwan stock market, is it true?" ”

Li Yuan said with a puzzled "ha" and said, "Really? How am I not clear? ”

Li Zeju said with a smile: "It's definitely right, although Datang Financial has Hang Seng Bank as a cover, but such a large flow of funds can't be concealed." It's like Datang's huge gains in the Japanese stock market, it's amazing. If Datang enters Hong Kong Island real estate, I don't think anyone will be your opponent. ”

Li Yuan looked at Li Jiacheng and smiled: "Cucumber...... Lao Li, there is a successor. ”

“……”

Li Jiacheng was a little embarrassed, and said to Li Zeju: "Victor, if you have anything to say, you can ask your Uncle Li directly, you don't have to go around the bend." Dr. Lee is a very smart and direct person, don't pretend to be clever and be generous. ”

Li Yuanle is happy, this is also a top-level human spirit.

He said: "Don't worry, Datang doesn't have much interest in real estate. Although Datang Real Estate has a reserve of 20,000 residences and some land is building luxury houses, it is basically internal and not external. ”

Li Zeju's face was complicated, with envy, jealousy, awe, and a little fear, and said, "Uncle Li, will the cause of Datang be too dangerous and difficult?" ”

He couldn't understand why the Datang Li family didn't do such a lucrative real estate industry, but didn't do it to do big industry and semiconductors.

After the success of those industries, the influence is far greater than that of the real estate industry, everyone understands this truth, but no one wants to do it in the four major real estate Tianwang families on Hong Kong Island.

Why?

The investment is too big, the risk is too great, and the involvement behind it is even greater.

In fact, those industries are beyond the realm of pure economics.

How good it is to do real estate and collect rent, and the children and grandchildren will not be able to eat and drink.

Li Yuan didn't answer him, and he didn't conspire with each other.

He diverted the topic and asked Li Jiacheng: "Lao Li, how many HSBC shares do you have?" ”

Li Jiacheng wondered: "Doctor Li, what do you mean ......?"

Sharp, he fluttered, and his heartbeat almost stopped.

Li Yuandao: "HSBC was transferred to HSBC Holdings at the end of last year, four shares of HSBC Bank, one share of HSBC Holdings, and the registered place became the United Kingdom. In other words, the financial lifeblood of Hong Kong Island is in the hands of this British-funded consortium. This can't be done, we Chinese businessmen have to get it back. ”

Li Jiacheng smiled bitterly: "Doctor Li, eight or seven years ago, if we unite all the Chinese businessmen and prepare secretly, it is still possible to do this." However, after the 87 stock market crash, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange issued a new policy, and all major shareholders holding more than 5% of the shares must make announcements regardless of whether they increase or reduce their holdings of listed companies. HSBC has a total of 15 billion outstanding shares, 42 yuan each, and a market value of more than 600 billion yuan. And once the acquisition war is launched, this value can soon exceed one trillion. Not probably. ”

Li Yuan smiled: "If I initiate an acquisition tomorrow, will you follow?" My appeal is simple, as long as HSBC does not have a British surname. The requirements for Chinese businessmen on Hong Kong Island are simpler, just don't send food and grass supplies to HSBC. ”

Li Jiacheng shook his head again and again and said, "Changhe is too small to eat this huge thing...... Dr. Li, HSBC has also developed a lot of business overseas, and the acquisition of HSBC is not simply the acquisition of HSBC, which is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of HSBC Holdings. Moreover, HSBC is not just HSBC, it also controls the treasury of the Hong Kong government, and the pool of funds available is too deep to need our help. ”

HSBC is the equivalent of the central bank on Hong Kong Island.

Li Yuan said: "I'm not so greedy, as long as Hong Kong Island HSBC." If one day I set up this ghost bank, I hope that Changhe will not be a national scum. Datang and Changhe hardly have any business competition, except for the port terminal, most of them are complementary. I really don't want to see the day when Hong Kong businessmen will be proud of the ghosts by breaking the net of the fish they are fighting. Think more about yourself and take your leave. ”

After Li Yuan left in a dashing manner, Li Zeju stammered: "Dad...... Daddy, he ...... What does he mean? How dare he ......"

HSBC, a god-like presence in the history of Hong Kong Island for 100 years.

Now someone actually wants to fight its idea?!

Li Jiacheng pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and said with a serious face: "It seems that Datang has indeed made a lot of money in Japan and the Wanwan stock market, which made him forgetful." HSBC's board of directors does not have an absolute controlling stake, and the total share capital of 15 billion shares is all outstanding shares. The largest unilateral shareholder is also only 8% of the shares. But because of this, the board of directors of HSBC has always been firmly in control of HSBC.

If you want to buy HSBC and cross the holding line, you need to come up with at least HK$1 trillion in cash. Unless Datang sells all its businesses, plus their gains in Japan and the Wanwan stock market, it may be possible to succeed. This is still the premise that HSBC did not invite a white knight. But I don't think either the beautiful country nor the UK will allow that to happen. Even the mainland may not be willing to see Datang take HSBC. ”

Li Zeju nodded and said, "That's right." If Datang even takes down HSBC, there will be no one to cure on Hong Kong Island. Not only that, HSBC has the power to issue Hong Kong dollars, which means that we will all work for Datang in the future. Hong Kong Island became the Hong Kong Island of the Li family. It would be terrifying for the mainland to guarantee that Hong Kong Island will remain unchanged for 50 years, and let the Tang Li family operate for 50 years, and the entire city will become his family. ”

Having said that, the father and son still didn't sleep well all night, after all, Li Yuan said that he would do HSBC tomorrow.

Early the next morning, the two of them looked at each other with a panda eye, and they were a little speechless.

The father and son opened the "Financial Morning Post" for the first time and scolded in unison: "Hit the street!" ”

Mao didn't move, but before the two of them could relax their minds, news came in the afternoon that Datang Financial was eating stocks in the Hang Seng Index, including the stocks of the four major real estate kings including the Changhe Department, and HSBC stocks.

The number of stocks eaten is high!

For a while, Li Jiacheng's father and son were a little confused, whether the Tang Li family was going to eat HSBC or Changhe......

They naturally don't know that the Hong Kong stock market has not fully recovered from the shadow of the 87 stock market in 91, and the 3,000-point market is still not uplifted, but from next year until 97, the Hang Seng Index will open a new round of bullish bull market.

From 3,000 points to 16,700 points, there is no reason for Datang to miss the golden years of Hong Kong Island.

After all, there are so many gold-devouring behemoths waiting to be fed.

As for HSBC, we can't rush it for a while, and take our time, there is a chance......

……

Lu Yu Teahouse.

Li Yuan looked at the two old men opposite and smiled a little playfully.

However, Li Xing, with a more sincere attitude, handed a document bag to Jin Yong, and said: "Cha Sheng, Datang does not necessarily have to acquire the "Ming Pao" Group. It's just that Cha Sheng had an agreement with my father, so Datang Group has not sought other newspapers in these years. Second, we have also made a lot of preparations after the acquisition of Ming Pao. But since the sixth uncle has come forward to intercede, we will not be strong. It's just that this heir chosen by Cha Sheng is really not very good, you can take a look at this. ”

Originally, it was agreed with Li Yuan that in 1994, when Jin Yong was 80 years old, the sale of "Ming Pao" to Datang changed.

Jin Yong, a scumbag, met a young man named Yu Pinhai, because he looked like his eldest son who committed suicide, so he was moved and wanted to sell "Ming Pao" to Yu Pinhai.

This time, Run Run Run Shaw was invited to come forward just to ask for personal favors.

Under the guidance of his father, Li Xing sent someone to Canada to investigate the details of this hairy man named Yu Pinhai.

During his study in Canada, he was sentenced to two years in prison minus one day for seven counts of stealing, signing checks, illegally using other people's credit cards, and possessing firearms.

Even the exact date was clearly ascertained, and Yu Pinhai was released on three months in 1979 for using another person's cheques and credit cards, involving $4,600, and possession of a handgun without a licence, for all charges of two years minus one day, and actually serving four months' imprisonment.

When Jin Yong saw it, his jaw almost dropped.

He politely rejected so many consortia, including Datang and Li Jiacheng of Changhe, and chose Yu Pinhai, who had insufficient funds at all, because he took a fancy to his elegant and elegant character.

Who knows, there is such a person behind it.

I thought that Duan Yu and Qiao Feng were selected, but it turned out to be a Murong Fu plus a crane in the clouds.

Seeing that his old friend's face was extremely ugly, Run Run Shaw glanced at the document in his hand and laughed: "Cha Sheng, this is a good thing. If you wait until you lend him all the shares and give up your position and find out about this, then it will be too late to regret it. ”

Li Yuan knocked his fingers on the table and said lightly: "Mr. Cha can take it back to check it, and then make a decision, I can give Uncle Sixth a face." However, if Cha Sheng has not made a decision at this time three days later, then Datang will directly sweep the stock market and launch a compulsory acquisition. Mr. Cha, no one can fulfill my appointment. Hades told you to die three watches, but you may not be able to die. But those who deceive me will definitely pay the price. ”

Jin Yong's face turned gloomy when he heard this, and he said disheartenedly: "Doctor Li, don't worry, if you ...... If these are true, three days later, I signed a sale agreement with Datang. The dishonest person has no face to stay for a long time, and Cha took the first step and said goodbye. ”

Li Yuan raised his chin slightly, but Li Xing got up to see him off, and his attitude was much softer.

Run Run Shaw looked at Li Yuan, who was a little cold, and sighed: "It's also bad luck, this Yu Pinhai is too much like Cha Sheng's eldest son who committed suicide in his early years, for that eldest son, Cha Sheng has placed great hopes on him, and he has spent a lot of energy cultivating him since he was a child." But I didn't expect that child to think about it like this. ”

Li Yuan sneered, and said in a mean tone: "Since you can't think about it like this, it's better to go down and accompany his son." It is unreasonable to dare to repent on what has been agreed. ”

Run Run Shaw's old eyes jumped, he originally wanted to continue to run TVB for a few years, but he also extinguished this heart at this time, this kid is a little different from before, domineering.

He looked at Li Yuan and said, "I will be eighty-five years old next year, will TVB let Miss Zhao be in charge?" ”

Li Yuan nodded and said, "She has been following you and Miss Fang for many years, and she is familiar with the basics." ”

Run Run Shaw was a little uneasy and said, "I heard that Miss Zhao has been learning a new management method, so I asked her to find out. Dr. Li, TV stations are different from other companies, and according to that kind of intensity management, many people don't have anything to eat. ”

TVB's biggest problem is that there are too many people eating.

Let's say Shao Lao Liu, he is really picking.

This year is 1991, and the standard salary for TVB actors to shoot one episode is 500 Hong Kong dollars, and 20 episodes are 10,000 yuan.

The median salary of college students who graduated in 1991 on Hong Kong Island was $13,000.

But let's say he's stingy, those old actors and actresses who have followed him since the forties and fifties were still Shaw Brothers at the beginning, and later merged into TVB, as long as they didn't leave by themselves, they had a bite to eat.

Although they are only paid 1,000 Hong Kong dollars a month for basic living expenses, they are never lacking, and as long as they are willing to film and do things, their income will definitely be more than 1,000 yuan.

You know, over the decades, the number of employees has already exceeded 10,000.

TVB is not a state-owned enterprise, it is a private enterprise, how can other companies have such a good thing.

But if you manage according to that modern management method, these people will have to get out.

Li Xing came back and said with a smile after hearing this: "Sixth Uncle rest assured, Datang has negotiated with the relevant departments of the mainland and asked for a way to open up a cable TV network in Jianghan City, which is the first foreign-controlled media in the mainland. Therefore, there is a great shortage of experienced employees, even if they can't do it, they can be teachers in the training class. ”

This peach originally belonged to Yu Pinhai, but this dog thing is used to empty gloves and white wolves, and set up such a good project, but he did not cherish development, but embezzled more than 100 million yuan of funds borrowed from the bank, and through several "firewalls", the money was laundered to Hong Kong Island for capital operation.

In the end, the game was smashed, and this unformed TV network became the first and last foreign-controlled media, and it also reviewed the bigwigs who approved the project...... Blocking the road.

When Run Run Shaw heard this, his saliva almost flowed, and he spent a lot of effort in order to be able to broadcast TVB to the mainland.

Since '84, the annual donation of 100 million yuan has actually been to win this condition, but it has not been able to achieve its wish.

Is there someone in the court who is good at being an official, and before the Li family took over TVB, he had already fulfilled his wish that he hadn't fulfilled for more than ten years? !

Li Yuan smiled and said with relief: "It does not include news and current affairs, only TV dramas, sports, cultural and educational programs." But it's also good, TVB has reserved so many experienced old actors and technical talents, and if you want to be a teacher, you can also support your family. ”

The mainland's economy will soon usher in a new round of take-off, and advertisements can be sold until the money is counted.

The conversion rate of TV advertising today is far from being comparable to that of later generations.

In a few years, after the separation system of production and broadcasting took shape, it will be another flowing golden river.

As long as you don't touch the news and current affairs, you should be steady.

In short, after opening this channel, TVB will win a golden job.

Run Run Shaw sighed: "The future life is terrifying, but it's okay, I can retire next year with peace of mind." ”

Li Yuan said with a smile: "It's not bad to be the principal of a training class, and in the future, the entire Chinese TV industry practitioners will be your apprentices." In the history of Chinese cinema, Uncle Six has left an indelible mark on the Shaw Brothers. If you also leave such an achievement in the history of television, Uncle Six, even after a few hundred years, someone will remember you as the ancestor of the Chinese film and television industry. ”

For a while, Uncle Shao Liu's heartbeat was more intense than when he saw the peerless beauty, and his breathing was short.

Li Xing: "......"

Compared with his own old beans, he is still a little far behind.

After bidding farewell to Run Run Shaw, Li Yuan, Li Xing, father and son walked back to Central, standing on their pier and looking out over Victoria Bay.

"Tell Ah Zhi that tonight's evening news will fully broadcast Yu Pinhai's affairs."

Li Yuan said lightly.

Li Xing was surprised: "Dad, didn't you give Cha Sheng three days?" ”

Li Yuan shook his head and said, "If he is sensible, he can naturally do this." But since the sixth uncle said that Yu Pinhai is like his late eldest son, it is not a rational state. Most fathers can tolerate their son's mistakes. We'll just give him a hand. ”

Li Xing nodded, paused, and said softly with relief: "Dad, grandpa......"

Li Yuan waved his hand, interrupted Li Xing's words, and said: "I'm not as fragile as you think, I can accept my grandfather's death, and I can be calm." You do things well, the polar bears have to work harder. Tell the Strategy Bureau that the channels of the major design bureaus should be dredged at any cost. The Southern Design Bureau in Kiev is a top priority. ”

How good is the Southern Design Bureau?

Putting aside the more than 2,000 nuclear bombs, Maozi's most powerful doomsday missile, Satan, came from here, and Russia's Satan needs to be maintained by the Southern Design Bureau.

Coupled with the pinnacle-level shipbuilding industry, it has three aircraft carriers and more than 6,000 high-level tanks.

The Southern Design Bureau's industrial technology reserves, such as special steel material technology, are almost invaluable treasures that cannot be missed.

Li Xing was a little embarrassed: "Dad, some things over there are not very easy to do, ClA's power over there is too strong, and we have already folded six or seven people." ”

Li Yuan held on to the railing and said, "Let them hold on a little longer, and wait for the second half of the year, I will go over in person." ”

This year is the year of Datang's establishment!

Looking into the distance, the sea breeze blows.

1991, 1991......
