Chapter 310: Lu Qintian's dinner

"This 'God of Wealth Li' is a bit slippery, and it is estimated that the British have some headaches!"

Xu Jiachun, the new director of the Hong Kong branch of Xinhua News Agency, raised his hand and pressed the remote control to turn off the TV, and said to another staff member next to him with a smile. After coming to Hong Kong, ATV's "Three Walks" has become a must-see program for Xu Jiachun every day, in order to understand some of the voices of Hong Kong's elite.

"President Xu, it's almost time, we should leave!" Another person said aloud.

"Okay, let's go then! I wonder if this 'God of Wealth Li' will attend tonight?" Xu Jiachun asked.

He just arrived in Hong Kong not long ago to take office, succeeding Peng Fei, who was appointed by another, and became the new director of the Hong Kong branch of Xinhua News Agency. When he first arrived in Hong Kong, Xu Jiachun visited and communicated with important people from all walks of life in Hong Kong. Li Xuan, the richest man in the world, was even at the top of the list of important people who came to his door first.

It's a pity that Xu Jiachun's visit was very unfortunate, and Li Xuan happened to take his pregnant wife to Hawaii for a childbirth vacation. When Li Xuan returned from Hong Kong, he was suddenly appointed by the Hong Kong Governor as an unofficial member of the Executive Council. Xu Jiachun felt that this matter was a little sensitive and decided to communicate with Li Xuan after a while.

But then calls began to appear in Hong Kong to join the Sino-British talks as an independent third party. Xu Jiachun had to devote all his energy to secret talks with Deng Lianru, Li Pengfei, Paul and several other members of the Congress who had the most trouble, and he didn't have time to pay another $10 to visit Li's house.

The reason why Xu Jiachun said that Li Xuan was slick was because the Hong Kong Xinhua Branch previously organized a delegation from Hong Kong's political and business circles who love Hong Kong and patriotism to visit the north. Li Xuan himself found an excuse to shirk it. But let his eldest brother Li Ke join the delegation.

Xu Jiachun naturally knew very well the background of this "big Li Sheng", although he was supported by his younger brother "God of Wealth Li". He has successively opened a film company, an electronics factory, and a paging company. Recently, it is said that he is preparing to take advantage of the low tide of real estate. Entering the real estate industry is like a new tycoon in Hong Kong's business world.

But on the other side of his efforts to whitewash, Li Ke is inextricably linked with Heletang, one of the largest social organizations in Hong Kong. It is said that Scar Qiang, the current sitting hall of He Le Tang, was originally Li Ke's eldest brother.

Such a black and white figure, but now he has become a patriotic businessman who loves Hong Kong and is visiting the north to be received by the leaders of the central government. This also shows that the situation in Hong Kong is far more complicated than that in the mainland. Of course, as far as Li Ke's consistent political stance is concerned. He is indeed a patriotic Hong Kong businessman who is close to the mainland.

Xu Jiachun read the information collected by Xinhua News Agency and found that Li Ke went to the Deep Sea Special Zone to invest in real estate as early as 1980 under the arrangement of his younger brother Li Xuan. Later, because of his social background, some right-wing media in Hong Kong took the opportunity to violently smear the reform and opening up of the SAR.

So Li Ke immediately announced to sell the company and withdraw from the deep-sea special zone, but his friendship with the leaders of the deep-sea special zone continued unabated. In the past few years, Li Ke's social background has gradually faded, and he apparently no longer participates in anything related to Heletang. Hong Kong society also began to recognize him as a businessman, the brother of the "God of Fortune Li", and gradually called him "Big Li Sheng".

And he returned to the mainland to invest again last year. In the Shekou Industrial Zone of Shenhai City, a sole proprietorship established an electronics factory for the production of pagers. In addition to supplying the Hong Kong market, his company's pager products are also sold well throughout Southeast Asia. Recently, they are vigorously developing the European and American markets.

Compared to the "God of Wealth Li" who rarely speaks out politically. Li Ke has a big mouth and can say whatever he wants. But he is not as prejudiced against the mainland as other Hong Kongers and has never attacked mainland policies. Instead, he kept singing praises. At first, everyone thought it was "God of Wealth Li" who made a sound through the mouth of the elder brother, but after a lot of times, it was discovered that this is not the case at all.

Xu Jiachun also carefully analyzed this time. Li Xuan's words and deeds from the beginning of his rise. He found that this "God of Wealth Li" did not seem to have any prejudice against the mainland, but he was very cautious in his words and deeds. Reluctance to show any position that is very close to the mainland.

This is also human nature. After all, China has not taken back Hong Kong, and Hong Kong people still have to make a living under the British government. The same situation also appeared in Li Jiacheng and other big businessmen. When Xu Jiachun first visited Hong Kong, they were very enthusiastic.

Some people even said that the Pingzhi car that Xu Jiachun was riding in did not fit his identity, and he was willing to send a Rolls-Royce to the Xinhua branch as his new car as the president. And Li Jiacheng even said that Cheung Kong Group is willing to purchase a small jet as a gift to the Xinhua Hong Kong branch, so that he and other leaders in the company can often report to and from Hong Kong and Beijing.

However, these people rarely show a close relationship with the staff of the Xinhua branch in public. Instead, they try to keep a close distance. This also made Xu Jiachun, who first arrived in Hong Kong, deeply feel the complexity and arduousness of the United Front work.

The silver-grey Pingzhi sedan that Xu Jiachun took arrived at the entrance of the hotel. When he first took office, he originally planned to choose a crown as his car. However, the head of the logistics department in the company argued and refused his request. Because Hong Kong people attach great importance to ostentation, the crown can only be regarded as a general brand, and it may be directly stopped by the doorman on many occasions. As the director of the Hong Kong Xinhua branch, Xu Jiachun goes out to participate in activities to represent the country. If such an embarrassing incident occurs, it will damage the national system if manipulated by the right-wing media in Hong Kong.

As for the vitriol of the Hong Kong media, Xu Jiachun had already experienced it at the beginning of taking office. He used to like to wear a pair of sunglasses when he went out, but he kept this habit when he arrived in Hong Kong. Several Hong Kong media took this to ridicule him as a triad. It turns out that in Hong Kong, only many community members like to wear sunglasses to look cool. Moreover, some newspapers criticized him for dressing in an old-fashioned and tasteless manner, and that he was a typical conservative cadre of the CCP.

To this end, Xu Jiachun went to the domestic goods market and spent 400 Hong Kong dollars to buy the black suit he is wearing now. He opened the car door and got out of the car, and the host of the dinner was already standing at the door to greet him.

But tonight's protagonist, Lu Qintian, the boss of Lu's Electronics Company, was not at the scene. Instead, his wife greeted him with the enthusiasm of his son's smiling face. Mrs. Lu was very embarrassed to say sorry to him again and again, saying that her husband couldn't meet him at the door in person because of something.

Xu Jiachun had also met Mr. Lu Qintian before, and the other party gave him a well-rounded character. Today is Lu Qintian's 50th birthday. Logically speaking, he, the birthday star, will definitely stand at the entrance of the hotel lobby to welcome guests.

Although Xu Jiachun was a little surprised, he didn't take it to heart and quickly walked into the banquet hall accompanied by Lu Qintian's son. The banquet was scheduled to start at 8:15, and it was already 8:00 sharp. Almost all the guests who came to the birthday banquet had arrived, and the banquet hall was already very lively.

In fact, the reason why Lu Qintian was a little rude and didn't personally greet the guests in the lobby was because the most important VIP tonight came earlier than he expected. So he had to personally accompany him and hand over the work of greeting to his wife.

That's right, the most important VIP tonight in Lu Qintian's eyes is Li Xuan. Li Xuan is famous for being lazy in socializing among the high-class banquets in Hong Kong. Most of the banquets that cannot be escaped are his wife Zhong Chuhong. Although Lu Qintian sent an invitation to Li Xuan, even he himself was not sure whether "God of Wealth Li" would come.

Lu Qintian didn't expect that Li Xuan not only came, but also came to support him early. The invitation stated that the banquet would start at 8:15. Lu Qintian originally guessed that Li Xuan should arrive after 8:00. Generally speaking, heavyweight guests like him are usually the last to arrive.

But Li Xuan obviously ignored this established rule. He arrived at the banquet hotel at 7:30, and it was forty-five minutes before the start of the banquet. According to Li Xuan's idea, since he decided to go to other people's dinner parties, he shouldn't count the time so accurately and make himself a big name.

During this period, his wife Zhong Chuhong had a very serious pregnancy reaction. She vomited several times a day and could not smell any oily smoke. So Li Xuan drank a bowl of red bean porridge with her as a simple dinner, and then set off early when he had nothing to do at home.

But Li Xuan obviously didn't think about it, the most important guests often arrive at the latest, and there is a reason for this.

For example, because Li Xuan came too early tonight, Lu Qintian could only accompany him in person and take him to the VIP room to rest first. Besides Lu Qintian himself, neither his wife nor his son are qualified to spend time with Li Xuan. So he had to throw away the reception work in the lobby~www.readwn.com~ first take care of Li Xuan, the most important VIP.

"Lu Sheng, the business of the picture tube factory is good. The second phase of the factory should be completed soon, right?" Li Xuan chatted with Lu Qintian without a word.

Before the East Group, Lu's Electronics, and an American company jointly built a picture tube factory in the Shekou Industrial Zone of the Deep Sea Special Zone. The factory was just completed and put into operation in early May last year, and it has only been one year since. However, the factory is already operating at full capacity, and the tripartite company also started the second-phase expansion project as early as the middle of last year.

"The main reason is that Li Sheng's vision is good. To be honest, I was worried about the production capacity of 1.2 million color tubes in the first phase. I was afraid that I would not be able to digest it! But I didn't expect that it was only an internal order from Dongfang Company. , it is enough to eat all the production capacity of the factory!" Lu Qintian said while holding Li Xuan.

Li Xuan shook his head slightly. In fact, his plan was still a little conservative. He should directly set the annual production capacity of the first phase at 2 million color picture tubes. He didn't expect sales of the series of computers to grow so fast. (To be continued...)
