A British-owned group acquired by Imperial Group.

In addition to Huo Jianning from Hutchison Whampoa being included in the inspection team back to the mainland.

There is also Yuan Tianfan from the Government Affairs Department of Jardine Group.

Zheng Haiquan from the Wharf Group Administration Department.

Li Huimin from the Finance Department of Land Group.

Liang Botao from the Human Resources Department of Xiangjiang Electric Lighting Company.

...

These are all Chinese elites who joined the British-owned groups acquired by the Imperial Group last year or this year.

At this time, these people had just joined, and their positions were not yet high. In the past, it was almost difficult to get a chance to stand out in these British-funded groups.

They can either join Chinese-owned groups, such as Changjiang Industrial Group, Bao Yugang's Global Group, or Huifeng Bank and Evergrande Bank, before they have the opportunity to be promoted to senior executive positions.

This time, these Chinese elites who have shown themselves to be capable are basically all highly educated, and many of them are highly educated returnees from the Turtles.

This time, all major groups held meetings to participate in this inspection trip to the mainland.

That is to say.

This time the Imperial Group and Mr. Yang are planning to send an inspection team of 5,000 people.

There are three hundred people at Hutchison Whampoa headquarters.

There are two hundred people at the Wharf Group headquarters.

There are three hundred people at the headquarters of Jardine Matheson Group.

There are two hundred people at the Land Group headquarters.

There are 300 people in Xiangjiang First Shipping Group.

...

There are also certain quotas for subsidiary groups under these groups, as well as group companies and affiliated companies under subsidiary groups.

Do the math.

Among the 5,000 people on the inspection list this time.

Among them, about one-third are Chinese elites and Chinese executives, and about two-thirds are white executives and white elites.

In other words, the Imperial Group and its affiliated groups are still dominated by white people.

Like Imperial Games, Akio Nakanishi and several Japanese people will also go to the country for inspections.

However, as far as the Orientals are concerned, compared with the Chinese and white people in Hong Kong, the number and quota are still far behind.

The Imperial Group is making preparations here.

Domestic and Guangdong provinces, as well as Yanjing and Shanghai, are also making preparations.

An inspection team of 5,000 people.

Among them, 4,000 people are mainly in Guangdong Province and major cities below, another 500 people go to Shencheng, and 500 people go to Yanjing.

Even then, domestic and major cities below still need to make arrangements in advance.

Considering that most of the members of the inspection team may be white, the country needs to be equipped with translators. This time, the country plans to use translators from major universities to translate for those white people.

After Yang Ming heard about this incident, he communicated directly with the country.

Translation is no longer needed, but you may still want some Mandarin translation.

Because in this domestic inspection, although whites are the majority, one-third are Chinese. In other words, when whites and Chinese are paired together, even if the whites cannot understand Mandarin, the Chinese can basically understand it.

There are just some communication barriers.

It is very difficult for these people who usually only speak English or Cantonese to speak Mandarin, because Mandarin is really difficult for them to speak.

In this case, it is enough to have a translator who understands Cantonese and Mandarin, which is much simpler than preparing an English translation.

The scale of the Imperial Group and Yang Ming's 5,000-person inspection team was really too large.

Including accommodation, food, and safety issues, everything must be considered and arranged in advance.

The time came to July 18, 1979.

The two parties have almost finished communicating.

Among them, Mr. Shen, who represents Mr. Xi, and Secretary Zhang, who represents Mr. Xi, have traveled back and forth many times in the past half month.

Yang Ming finished talking to them.

Decided to leave tomorrow for domestic inspection.

On the same day, Yang Ming held a press conference at the Imperial Group. News about this domestic inspection was spread by major reporters and newspapers, and it immediately shocked all walks of life in Hong Kong.

In other words, it was indeed true that the Imperial Group sent an inspection team of 5,000 people back to the mainland a while ago!

That night.

Mr. Shen and Secretary Zhang decided to stay and accompany Mr. Yang by car back to China tomorrow.

22:00 in the evening.

Ma Shimin, Wei Li, Li Caixin, Xia Boyin, Wei Peter, Bao Fuda, Mannix, Nisikado Tomohiro, Tang Shilian, Lin Xiuzhi and others were all meeting here.

Among them, Zhou Kaixuan, she had already left for Yanjing in advance last month.

Zhou Kaixuan's current external identity is the person in charge of the Yang Ming Foundation, and she is fully responsible for the affairs of the Yang Ming Foundation.

After going to Yanjing, she still had another identity.

Deputy director of Yang Group's office in Yanjing, assisting Tang Yun, director of the office, in his work.

Tang Yun was very happy for the arrival of Zhou Kaixuan, a girl from Xiangjiang.

The boss, Mr. Yang, has communicated with her in advance that Zhou Kaixuan will take over her job in the future, and Tang Yun will be transferred to Xiangjiang to work beside him.

In this situation, Tang Yun had nothing to think about.

However, Tang Yun feels that although Zhou Kaixuan is young, it must not be easy for her boss, Mr. Yang, to be reused.

Sure enough, the two spent a few days together.

Tang Yun discovered that Zhou Kaixuan's ability was really not bad, and Zhou Kaixuan quickly adapted to life in Yanjing.

Now here is the study conference room.

Except for Melis, Keira is far away in London, and Zhou Kaixuan is in Yanjing, everyone else is here.

"I will go to the mainland for inspection tomorrow. Lin Xiuzhi will go with me, while the others will stay in Xiangjiang."

Yang Ming had no intention of taking Ma Shimin and the others there.

However, they have already selected the members of the inspection team from their own company.

Under normal circumstances, Yang Ming would like to know the value of investment only if they go there in person. However, these group companies still cannot do without them.

"As for investment projects and investment amounts, we will have to wait until the end of this inspection and based on the feedback from the inspection team members, we will make further decisions."

From Ma Shimin's perspective, this is the real investigation.

After all, foreign investors who visit China to inspect investment or other countries also proceed through this normal procedure.

It’s impossible to just invest money without even seeing the place.

That's not much different from wasting money.

Yang Ming knew very well that maybe what Ma Shimin and the others thought were somewhat different from what he thought.

This study room meeting is over.

Ma Shimin and others will go back first.

Lin Xiuzhi stayed in the villa, waiting to take a car to the mainland together tomorrow.

Yang Ming was looking out the window in the study.

I don't know how long it took.

There was a knock on the door.

Yang Ming saw his mother Li Yufang coming in.

This time Yang Ming will leave Xiangjiang and return to the mainland for two months for inspection. As a mother, she is still quite worried.

Although the last time Yang Ming returned to his hometown to visit his ancestors' tombs and even recognize his ancestors, Li Yufang and her husband Yang Jirong had already followed him back once.

However, she was still not clear about the domestic situation.

She won't interfere in business matters.

The investments made by her son now cost hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars, or even billions of Hong Kong dollars, or tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars, which is simply not something she can consider.

"Peter, you have to go back to China tomorrow, why don't you go to bed early?"

"Mommy, I'm a little excited and can't sleep for a while."
