Rebirth of Hong Kong Island, leading the technology war

Chapter 324 Hu Yingxiang's Good Grandson

Gao Pingze coughed lightly and said, "But the aerospace industry can be subdivided into many things. If it is just to produce some parts, there will be no problem in Hong Kong Island."

Wang Mingtang smiled and said, "Pingze is more professional and knows more."

Gao Jinguang quickly waved his hands and said a few words to help Gao Pingze be humble.

Gao Pingze is now in his twenties. He is handsome and graduated from a prestigious university in Lighthouse Country. He has good abilities and talents, and is now the focus of his family's training.

Hu Yingxiang said: "By the way, Jiangshan will be here soon, you two can have some conversation."

When the other people heard this, they looked at each other. They didn't expect it would be such a coincidence that Hu Jiangshan would also come.

Of course, Hu Jiangshan is Hu Yingxiang's good grandson, so it is normal for him to report to work regularly and visit his grandfather.

However, Hu Jiangshan's "prestige" is so great that it inevitably makes people feel uneasy.

Wang Mingtang and Gao Jinguang were naturally not afraid of Hu Jiangshan, but they also had to consider the feelings of the younger generation, especially Gao Qi's personal safety.

What if Hu Jiangshan gets into trouble and says something strange to Gao Qi? Just like last time.

We can't just drag Hu Jiangshan out and give him a beating, we also have to consider Hu Yingxiang's face.

But think about it in a positive way. With Hu Yingxiang around, this grandson won't be so bold and go too far.

But Gao Jinguang still said: "Mr. Hu, since Jiangshan..."

Hu Yingxiang waved his hand and said, "Ashan will be here soon. You can ask him any questions you have then."

Since Hu Yingxiang insisted so much, Gao Jinguang could not say anything more.

What's more, Gao Jinguang, Wang Mingtang and four others had just arrived not long ago. They chatted for a while and left before even having two cups of tea, which really made people feel strange.

In fact, Gao Qi didn't care. She did dislike Hu Jiangshan a little, but there was nothing to be afraid of in broad daylight.

Just then, there was the sound of a car engine outside, and someone was coming.

Immediately afterwards, a young man walked in from the gate.

Everyone recognized that it was Hu Jiangshan.

At first glance, there seemed to be nothing wrong. Hu Jiangshan was still the Hu Jiangshan we remembered, but I immediately felt something was wrong.

Gao Qi and Gao Pingze looked at each other and chatted in low voices.

“Is this Hu Jiangshan?”

"Yes, that should be it? Could it be someone else?"

"Well, don't you think he looks...unlike?"

"…It's probably a psychological effect. We're not familiar with him and we haven't met him many times."

"That's true."

As they were talking, Hu Jiangshan had already been brought into the tea room by the Filipino maid.

Hu Jiangshan already knew that there were guests, so he greeted Wang Mingtang, Gao Jinguang and others one by one, including the siblings Gao Pingze and Gao Qi.

After greeting the guests, Hu Jiangshan sat down next to Hu Yingxiang and chatted with his grandfather with a smile.

Then, Hu Jiangshan picked up the teapot and began to pour tea for everyone.

Gao Jinguang and Wang Mingtang were also quite surprised. What was wrong with Hu Jiangshan? He was too polite!
If Hu Jiangshan was pretending, it would definitely be obvious.

Even though it’s just a simple job like pouring tea, those who have done this job and those who have not can be distinguished at a glance.

Hu Jiangshan's movements... were too natural, as smooth as flowing water. He quickly poured tea into several cups without spilling a drop of water.

Hu Jiangshan made a gesture of invitation: "Please enjoy your meal."

Wang Mingtang said, "Oh, Jiangshan is really polite."

Hu Yingxiang laughed: "Be more polite, that way you will appear polite."

At this time, everyone couldn't help but look at Hu Jiangshan a few times, and the closer they looked, the more unusual he seemed.

Hu Jiangshan's temperament is obviously different from what I remembered.

In the past, Hu Jiangshan was a scoundrel and cynical person, as if the words "dandy" were clearly written on his face.

But now, those four words can't even be seen, there is no trace of them at all.

Hu Jiangshan now looks calm and composed, and actually looks like a top student.

No, if you observe carefully, he is somewhat different from the so-called top students. Hu Jiangshan's temperament seems much more mature, and there is a bit of majesty. It is no problem to say that he is a mentor of top students.

If we say that this was all Hu Jiangshan's pretense, it doesn't make sense at all.

A person can pretend temporarily, but he cannot do it for a long time and will be exposed in a few minutes.

If Hu Jiangshan can really hide his true identity for a long time, it means his acting skills are excellent and he can definitely win an Oscar for his performance on the other side of the sun.

Hu Jiangshan asked curiously: "By the way, what topic were you talking about just now?"

Hu Yingxiang said, "By the way, Ashan, tell me what you have been busy with recently. Everyone is very curious."

"Huh? Curious about what I'm up to?"

"Yes, aren't you starting a business recently? Can you tell everyone about it? There are no outsiders here, so there's no need to worry about rumors."

Wang Mingtang smiled and said, "Jiangshan, we just heard from Mr. Hu that you have been busy starting a business recently, and it is in the aerospace industry, so our curiosity has been aroused."

Hu Jiangshan nodded: "Yes, that's exactly what happened."

Gao Jinguang looked up and glanced at Hu Jiangshan, trying to read some of his thoughts from his expression, but he found nothing. He could not see any abnormal reaction from Hu Jiangshan at all.

Hu Jiangshan expressed himself very frankly, without exaggeration or hiding anything, which was indeed the performance of a mature man.

What happened? Why did this change happen?
A year ago, Hu Jiangshan was not like this.

Could it be that there was someone behind Hu Jiangshan who was giving him advice? Someone had changed his behavior to make him look more presentable?

However, no matter how great the expert is, or how hard he tries to guide Hu Jiangshan, it will be useless and have no effect if he himself has no ambition and does not want to change.

If a person were so easy to change, there would be no such thing as prodigal sons or good-for-nothings.

Gao Jinguang is very good at judging people, otherwise he would not have become a successful businessman.

Especially since Gao Jinguang is so old, he has seen countless people and is very experienced, so his accuracy in judging people is even higher and he rarely makes mistakes.

Gao Jinguang had met Hu Jiangshan in the past and really looked down on him. He thought he was definitely a young man with no future and was of the lowest class among the younger generation.

Of course, Gao Jinguang would not say that Hu Jiangshan was a prodigal son. That was too harsh and disrespectful to Hu Yingxiang. After all, he was his beloved grandson. However, he would definitely not think that Hu Jiangshan could inherit the Hu family business.

If the Hu family really let Hu Jiangshan inherit the Hezhong Group, this not-so-small company would definitely not last more than three years and would be bankrupt.

But now Hu Jiangshan behaves very much like an elite child. Even this description is a bit conservative. It feels that Hu Jiangshan, this junior, is hard to see through and unfathomable, and it is difficult to evaluate what kind of ability he has.

Gao Jinguang was even more curious about Hu Jiangshan and asked, "What are you talking about? What exactly do you make? Are they parts related to the aerospace industry, or are you collaborating with aerospace companies?"

Hu Jiangshan smiled and said: "Actually, it is like this. I have invested in a space launch site."

When the other people heard this, they were all stunned and confused, as if they didn't understand what Hu Jiangshan was talking about.

Even Hu Yingxiang glanced at Hu Jiangshan to make sure that this grandson was not joking.

It was obvious that Hu Jiangshan's expression was very serious and there was no intention of joking at all.

Gao Pingze couldn't help but ask: "Hang, is the space launch site used to launch rockets?"

Hu Jiangshan nodded: "Yes, this is the launch site for launching rockets."

"This one……"

Gao Pingze was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to respond. His first reaction was that it was too ridiculous.

This is complete nonsense, how could Hu Jiangshan possibly do it?
A launch site that can launch rockets requires a huge investment, which is hard for ordinary people to imagine.

Although Gao Pingze doesn't know much about aerospace, he still has some understanding of business and common sense.

Facilities like space launch sites are too special to be easily accessed by ordinary people.

Even if Hu Jiangshan is a super rich man and is purely an investor, he still needs to find a reliable and technically savvy person to take the lead. There are definitely no such talents in Hong Kong Island. Even if there are, they cannot be retained as most of them go to the Beacon Country to develop.

Gao Jinguang took a sip of tea and asked, "Jiangshan, the investment in the space launch site is not small, right?"

Hu Jiangshan nodded: "Yes, it took a lot of effort to get it done, but my principle is to save as much as possible, so the total investment is not that exaggerated."

"So... did you find some technical talents in related fields?"

"Yes, I have a complete team of technical advisors here, all of whom are very good, and we also have the help of the National Space Administration."

"Oh, good, you did a great job."

Although Gao Jinguang kept nodding, he still found it hard to believe what Hu Jiangshan said.

Of course, Gao Jinguang had many ways to trick Hu Jiangshan into talking and judge how much truth there was in his words, but he wouldn't do that. With Hu Yingxiang here, it was difficult for him to do so, so he could only ask a few questions casually.

"By the way, where is the space launch site built? Is it inland?"

"No, in Hong Kong Island."

"Ah? Hong Kong Island? You built a space launch site on Hong Kong Island?"

Hu Jiangshan nodded.

"Oh my, this is really..."

Gao Jinguang couldn't continue talking about this. Hu Jiangshan actually built a space launch site in Hong Kong Island.

If you think about it, it’s really ridiculous.

Outrageous fucking opened the door, outrageously home.

Others should have felt the same way, looking at Hu Jiangce as if he were an alien.

Gao Qi said: "Hong Kong Island is so small, where can we build a space launch site? Aren't you afraid of accidents when launching rockets, and the rockets falling down and hitting the houses?"

Gao Jinguang coughed lightly: "Qiqi, can you say something auspicious?"

In fact, although what Gao Qi said was just a joke, it actually made sense.

Hong Kong Island is a city, and it is difficult to find a place where you can see the launch site. Even if there is one, it is almost impossible for the Hong Kong government to approve it.

Of course, perhaps by relying on Hu Ying-xiang's influence, the Hong Kong government's approval could be obtained, but the location must be safe.

Hu Jiangshan did not intend to hide it and said, "The space launch site I invested in is on an island."

"Ah ha? Off island?"

"Yes, it's an outlying island, so generally speaking, it won't hit any houses. The chance of that happening is very, very low. You should be able to rest assured about that."

At this time, Hu Yingxiang laughed and said, "I said that Ashan now considers things very comprehensively. Ashan bought a new island some time ago, which was originally intended to build a space launch site."

"Yes, Grandpa, that's what I'm doing."

Hu Jiangshan's purchase of the island certainly could not be hidden from Hu Yingxiang. Although Hu Yingxiang was old and seldom went out, he was not isolated from the news. Someone would report to him regularly on the situation in Hong Kong and even the mainland.

Seeing that everyone else looked confused, Hu Jiangshan organized his thoughts and explained everything in detail.

Hu Jiangshan will not hide the existence of the space launch site. This matter cannot be kept as a secret.

Not only that, when launching rockets in the future, we need to do a little publicity to let people know that there is a space launch site in Hong Kong Island, and that it is of good quality and can successfully launch rockets. Only in this way will customers come to us and the space launch site can operate normally.

Even good wine needs no bush, so it won’t work without advertising.

However, advertising must be moderate and cannot be used as a topic for hype, otherwise there may be some unnecessary trouble.

Hu Jiangshan spoke in considerable detail, from the purchase of Tenglong Island, to the selection of a site for the launch site, and then to how to build the launch site. It was a complete set of rhetoric.

Of course there is definitely some water in it, it is half true and half false. After all, some things cannot be told to outsiders, only he himself knows it, and even if he tells it, others will not believe it.

Who would believe that Hu Jiangshan has a technology engine app on his phone?

The functions of that APP are so powerful that it can basically be considered alien technology, let alone black technology.

After Hu Jiangshan finished speaking, he poured himself a cup of tea to moisten his throat. He had prepared these remarks in advance so that he could explain in this kind of occasion how he built this space launch site.

There will be many opportunities to use it in the future, so the logic must be basically complete and appropriate, otherwise it will not be convincing enough.

Sure enough, Gao Jinguang and Wang Mingtang looked at each other, and their expressions were no longer full of doubts as before.

"So that's what's going on. Jiang Shan is really capable."

Hu Yingxiang was obviously in a better mood. He laughed and said, "Don't praise him anymore. Wait until he gets the job done."

Gao Jinguang said to Hu Jiangshan: "If you have any problems, just tell your grandfather and ask him to help you solve them. Your grandfather has a lot of face."

Hu Jiangshan nodded: "Of course, sometimes I don't even need to tell him, my grandfather will solve it for me."

Hu Yingxiang smiled but said nothing.

What Hu Jiangshan said was true. In fact, Hu Yingxiang secretly helped Hu Jiangshan many times. Although they seemed to be small favors, such as sending people to help Hu Jiangshan deal with things and lending a yacht to Hu Jiangshan, they were all crucial.

Hu Yingxiang asked: "Ashan, what stage have you reached with the procedures for this launch site? When can it be put into operation?"

Hu Jiangshan replied: "Now all the formalities have been completed, and the operation team has been established. It will be put into operation in a month at most."
