Chapter 428: The Expedition of the Rich
Red capitalist, this is the title given to Ho Yingdong by everyone in Xiangjiang.
In the nearly thirty years ahead of Ho Ying-dong, he was "ordinary".
From a young age, his father died early, then dropped out of school at a young age and entered society... This is the development trajectory of many wealthy people in Xiangjiang, and there is no difference between Ho Yingdong and everyone present.
The outbreak of the Korean War in the 1950s became a turning point in Ho Yingdong's life.
At that time, the United Nations controlled by the United States imposed an embargo on emerging countries. In order to break through the blockade, China contacted overseas Chinese businessmen to supply materials and assisted in "resisting the U.S. aggression and aiding Korea". Ho Yingdong, who owned more than a dozen ships and a ship repair yard, became the country's key target of winning.
At great risks, Ho Yingdong directed the fleet to transport supplies and medical supplies to the mainland every day.
After this battle, Ho Ying-dong not only won the first pot of gold, but also established an unusually good relationship with the mainland government.
After the "anti-British storm" in 1967, Ho Ying-dong strengthened his ties with the mainland, targeted the opportunities of reform and opening up in the mainland, and resolutely went to the mainland to seek development, becoming the first Hong Kong businessman to enter the mainland, and made great efforts for the development of the mainland.
Gradually, Ho Yingdong became the name of a red capitalist.
"Hey, Lao Huo, tonight is the dinner that Lao Li holds for his son. Let's not talk about these serious issues, just say something happy.
As for the business inspection team, let’s find another time to get together.”
The business inspection team was a commission accepted by Ho Ying-dong not long ago.
A few months ago, Ho Yingdong received an invitation from Xu Jiantun, president of the Xinhua News Agency branch of Xiangjiang.
Because of its good relationship with China, Ho Yingdong immediately agreed. After going there, he got something about the business inspection team from Xu Jiantun.
Business Expedition Team, a plan for China.
They plan to invite these wealthy people from Xiangjiang to form a business delegation to go to the mainland in person to take a look, in order to eliminate some of their prejudices and concerns about the mainland.
Since the beginning of 1942, China and the UK have made great progress on the ownership of Hong Kong after 1997.
It can be said that the general trend is decided.
But this is far from enough. During the years when Britain ruled Hong Kong, most people in Hong Kong had a bad impression of China, and even became a beast-like existence.
This, from the beginning of the negotiations, Xiangjiang's stock market fluctuated and the real estate market was in a slump, which shows how many people were competing to immigrate to Europe and the United States.
Therefore, for the sake of Xiangjiang's future consideration, the Chinese side came up with a way to conduct a business inspection team.
Xiangjiang has been practicing capitalism for so many years, so these wealthy people have great influence in all walks of life in Xiangjiang.
Now, to eliminate other people's misunderstandings about the mainland, the word-of-mouthedness of these rich people can undoubtedly achieve very good results, so the grand occasion of "the rich people gathered in the Li family" at this time.
"Yes, Brother Huo, tonight is the child who returned from studying abroad, and I specially held a dinner for him.
It is rare that so many uncles and uncles have come, so let’s put other things aside for the time being. Let’s talk about it later.”
Among the rich people present, Ho Yingdong undoubtedly favored the mainland and wanted to actively promote them to form a group to the mainland. Bao Yugang next to him also had a good relationship with the mainland and had a good personal relationship with the great man.
Therefore, when the atmosphere was a bit stalemate, the owner here, Li Jiacheng, who was in a neutral position, spoke up and started to be a peace.
"Yes, Brother Huo, Lao Li is right. We can talk about the business inspection team slowly. You shouldn't be too far apart and steal the limelight from Lao Li's son.
Haha, everyone, do you think this is the case?"
"Yes, yes, let's talk about it another day, let's talk about it another day."
"This matter is not urgent, we will come today..."
Seeing another rich man present Guo Desheng speak out, He Chaoqiong's father He Hongsen, Zheng Yutong, Li Zhaoji and others speak out to ease the atmosphere on the scene.
Whether they participate in a business inspection team or visit the mainland is undoubtedly a heavy topic and is of great importance. Even if Ho Ying-dong comes forward, they need to carefully consider the pros and cons.
"This...oh, okay, let's make another appointment next time, but at that time, you can't let it go."
Seeing that everyone present had mixed up, Ho Yingdong sighed in his heart. It was over, and he couldn't force them to avoid backfire.
However, I don’t know when I will wait for the next time I get together.
In the whole of Hong Kong, Ho Ying-dong's influence is undoubtedly huge, and even the British Hong Kong government cannot do without him.
This is beyond the reach of Li Jiacheng at this time.
Ho Yingdong, who believes that he has never let anyone down in his life, ended up making money and developing his career.
Because of his style of making money together, Ho Yingdong has a very high reputation, and many businessmen say that he "has nothing to say to others."
When a friend wants to start a business, he asks him to invest in the shares, but Ho Ying-tung rarely refuses; if a friend has broken the capital chain and cannot continue, he asks Ho Ying-tung to invest and take over. As long as the amount is within the affordable range, he will agree.
During the period of Hong Kong Finance and real estate fluctuations, Hong Kong businessmen who rescued urgently often heard a sentence that "Only Ho Ying-dong in Hong Kong can save you." Even other rich people present at this time have received help from Ho Ying-dong.
Because of Ho Ying-dong's willingness to help others, he has a wide connection in Hong Kong.
This is also because the Chinese side asked him to invite the rich people present to form a business inspection team to visit the mainland. Otherwise, it would be a big problem to gather the people present together at once.
"Oh, that's right. Brother Huo, we can understand your mood, but you should also understand our concerns.
After all, Xiangjiang is still the world of the British.”
Among the people present, if you want to say that the one who received the greatest favor from Ho Yingdong was undoubtedly He Hongsen beside him.
Without Ho Yingdong's support, whether He Hongsen can have the reputation of the current Aomen Gambling King is also a question of suspense.
Therefore, when he saw his old friend's expression was depressed, He Hongsen whispered to comfort him.
"Forget it, forget it, I won't talk about this."
Upon hearing this, Ho Yingdong gave He Hongsen a reassuring look and waved his hand.
Immediately, Ho Yingdong turned his head to Li Jiacheng: "Old Li, what's going on with your Xiangjiang light?"
