MTL - Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981-Chapter 945 Big bosses gather

   Chapter 945 Big Brothers Gather

  Mandarin Oriental Hotel

  Today's day is very special. This is a gathering led by Yang's consortium. To be precise, it is a gathering of leaders from the political and business circles of Hong Kong, which was invited by Yang Chen.

   In the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, there are no more than 300 political and business celebrities in the conference room of Nuoda. All of these people who have a certain influence in all walks of life in Hong Kong were invited here today.

   Among them, sitting in the front row, on the left are the political leaders led by Governor Youde, and on the right are the chemical capital and British capital leaders headed by the charter king and the Kadoorie family.

   Outside the meeting room

"boss"

   "How is it, are everyone here?"

   "It's all here"

   "Okay, let's go in!"

  Bangdang—

  The door of the conference room was opened by soldiers and iron heads

  Yang Chen glanced at the big bosses in the front row of the conference room. Seeing that the familiar bosses were all there, the corners of his mouth couldn't help showing a smile.

   Go straight to the front desk

   The conference room that was still a little noisy, suddenly became silent, and everyone's eyes were focused on Yang Chen.

   Everyone who comes here knows very well that the home game here today will still be the young man on the stage. Since this blockbuster a few years ago, he can attract attention wherever he goes.

   "Everyone, sorry for being late."

   "Just prepared something for everyone"

  Yang Chen stretched out his hand and motioned to Huo Jianxuan and others to send things down.

"Thank you very much for coming, everyone who is familiar with me knows that I am not too talkative, and I don't like nonsense, so I will not give you any opening remarks, and I will just start talking if I have something to say. "

"I invite everyone to come here today. I think you all know what it is for. I will not hide it here. Regarding some recent media reports, about the construction of the Xiangjiang high-tech industrial chain, I have previously talked to Governor Youde. It has been discussed in detail."

"The Yang Consortium will invest a minimum of 10 billion US dollars a year to build a high-tech industrial park belonging to Heungkong in the New Territories in the next ten years to enhance Heungkong's future comprehensive competitiveness. I will hold a press conference in two days. Officially let the people of Hong Kong understand."

  100 billion investment, 10 billion investment every year, and it is still US dollars, when Yang Chen said these words, the corners of the mouths of the big guys couldn't help but twitch, and many people even took a few breaths.

  Although they have already obtained some news in advance through various channels, plus the major media in Hong Kong during this time, they have been reporting wildly.

   However, reporting is reporting, and knowing is knowing.

  Compared to saying it from Yang Chen's mouth and admitting it himself, the feeling is still different. Apart from being shocked, the big guy can't seem to find any other words to describe his current mood.

   Not to mention hundreds of billions of dollars, it is 10 billion dollars. For most of the people present, they can only look up.

   No matter how the hearts of the people below change

  Yang Chen stood on the stage and continued his topic.

   "Since the 1970s, with the rapid development of Hong Kong's economy, the labor cost of Hong Kong has gradually risen and kept increasing."

   "Before, on the topic of Heungkong's transformation, when it comes to whether Heungkong should go to the manufacturing industry, from the perspective of labor costs, Heungkong will no longer be suitable for the development of manufacturing in the future."

"A lot of people have asked me about this question before, and now I can tell you clearly that it is imperative for Xiangjiang to go to manufacturing, and the times change and the market changes. eliminated by the market.”

   "Do you think what I said is a bit contradictory, since I think it is imperative for Xiangjiang to go to the manufacturing industry, why do you need to build a high-tech industrial chain in Xiangjiang?"

"the reason is simple"

   "Because when I say going to manufacturing, I mean going to low-end manufacturing, not high-end manufacturing."

   "The high-tech industry chain belongs to the high-end manufacturing industry. The high-end manufacturing industry can accept a certain degree of labor cost increase, so we need a lot of investment in this regard."

   "Xiangjiang has millions of people. With the economic development in the future, more and more may come here, so we need to provide more employment opportunities for everyone."

   "The predecessors planted trees, and the later generations enjoyed the shade."

   "The reason why I want to build this high-tech industrial chain is very simple, in order to give Xiangjiang a tomorrow, a future, and a future that can control its own destiny."

   "undeniable"

   "The financial services industry in Heungkong does have great potential for development. This is not only clear to everyone, but I am also very optimistic about it. With the geographical location of Heungkong and the huge market that is gradually opening up in the inland."

   "In my opinion, Hong Kong's financial services industry may even surpass the island nation of Tokyo to become the next Asian financial center in the future. You may think I am joking now, but I always believe that Hong Kong will succeed one day."

   "And, that day will come soon."

Although   Tokyo is powerful, due to various factors, it can only become the financial center of the island country like an inland capital.

   As a financial center in Asia, Hong Kong has a natural advantage in this regard. In addition to its geographical location, it also has policy convenience.

  As a true duty-free port in Asia, Hong Kong has the conditions to become a financial center in Asia. After the real estate bubble in the island country, Hong Kong's biggest opponent, the enemy, will fall.

   The biggest rival is gone. After entering the 1990s, the inland was officially opened to the outside world. Driven by the demand of the inland, Hong Kong would become a veritable Asian financial center at that time.

   However, people without far-sightedness must have immediate worries.

In later generations, Xiangjiang was blinded by the immediate interests. He was drunk all day long, just wanted to make quick money, and never planned for the long-term development in the future. He lost the opportunity for transformation again and again, and finally was chased by the next door Shang Hai, all the way to surpass. I finally woke up from the big dream.

  It’s a pity that later generations Xiangjiang woke up too late.

   Coupled with the rise of the inland in the 21st century, foreign forces are afraid of the speed of development of the inland. In order to limit the rise of the inland, they will try their best to make troubles and block the inland, and finally Xiangjiang has become a victim.

  In Yang Chen's view, it is not desirable to blindly develop the financial services industry and ignore other industries. No matter how well a single economy develops, problems will arise.

  The three major financial centers of later generations, New York and London, have no competitors in their respective surrounding areas.

   On the contrary, there are more than one or two competitors around Heungkong. Especially after the rise of the inland economy, the two cities of Shanghi next door and Shenzhen and Shenzhen behind them, their rise will make Heungkong feel a lot of pressure.
