Hong Kong Movies: You Hongxingzi, what the hell is the charity king?

Chapter 520 "519" National Day, Guan Zudi is going to the capital~~
Imperial capital, small alley.

Red flags are planted all over the alley. Although the day has not arrived yet, the whole alley is already filled with the lively and festive atmosphere of National Day.

The fat man stood at the entrance of the alley early in the morning, like a "friend-watching stone".

"Little Fatty, what are you doing?"

"I'm waiting for Xiao Gu!"

"Consolidate? He's coming back?"

"Yes, Gong Gu said he was coming back with his dad and would bring me a lot of things."

The news quickly spread in the alley.
The neighbors began to talk about it.

"I heard Gong Wei followed a big boss in Hong Kong Island and made a lot of money."

"This is all capitalist corruption."

"Just tell me whether you are envious or not!"

"........."

Soon, it was noon.

Xiaopang's parents called him to have lunch.

Xiaopang went home for a while, and soon after, he ran back to the entrance of the alley with a large basin piled with vegetables and continued waiting.

I waited another hour.
Xiaopang looked around for a long time and finally saw a familiar figure.

Gong Gu's father Gong Wei, and there is a short one.

Xiaopang rubbed his eyes and looked again.

It's really consolidation.

At this time, Gonggu had already run over quickly, shouting and yelling.

"Little Fatty!"

"Xiao Gu!"

Xiaopang screamed in surprise and ran out frantically.

Then he rushed forward too fast and bumped into others. Gonggu wanted to hold him back, but Xiaopang was too big and rushed forward too fast, so he couldn't hold him back and they rolled into a ball, looking very embarrassed.

But it was obvious that neither of them cared and they started laughing happily on the ground.

"Xiao Gu, you are finally back."

"I will come back every year from now on. When I grow up, I will come back once every six months!"

"Once every three months, okay?"

"it is good!"

Then Xiao Gu got up and said, "Look what I brought you... I bought so many things for you, they are in the suitcase... Let's go home and unpack them for you!"

The two went home hand in hand.
Gong Wei followed.

"Xiao Gu, how is it over in Hong Kong Island?"

"It's pretty good. I have three new friends. One of them always fights with me. He's really good..."

Xiao Gu talked incessantly.

"By the way, where's Auntie? How's she?"

"I'm almost well now. There's no major problem. I'm just a little weaker."

"Great."

"Xiaopang, next time you come to Hong Kong Island, I'll pay for your flight ticket, food and accommodation."

"Okay!"

Blah blah blah~~~~ The two little guys were talking excitedly with endless words.

Gong Wei followed behind, dragging his suitcase.

Many neighbors greeted Gong Wei after seeing him.

"Wow, Dawei is really back."

"This suit looks great. It should be very expensive~~~"

"I feel like Wei has become more handsome."

"Ah Wei, I heard that your salary is several thousand a month~~"

Faced with numerous envious and jealous greetings from neighbors, Gong Wei was calmer than before. I have seen all kinds of scenes. Those who were nice to him in the past gave him gifts one by one, while those who were sarcastic to him in the past did not give him any gifts.

Gonggu had already arrived at Xiaopang's house and began to unbox and take out the gifts one by one.

"These are the shoes I bought for you..."

“This is chocolate…”

“This is a four-wheel drive vehicle…”

"This is a Transformer..."

Xiaopang was dazzled.

There are forty or fifty toys, and the whole person is smiling foolishly.

"Xiao Gu, you are so nice!"

"You are my friend!"

Gong Wei said at this time: "Xiao Gu, you are at Xiao Pang's house, I'm going out for a while."

He said goodbye to Gonggu and went to the director's house with gifts.

Although the director can be quite deceptive sometimes, he should thank the director for approving him to go to Hong Kong Island.

Director's home,

"Ah Wei, why are you back?"

When the director saw Gong Wei, he was a little surprised and happy.

Gong Wei took the gift in and said, "I came back with my boss."

Director: "Your boss? Come here to discuss business?"

Gong Wei: "No, he was invited to attend the National Day."

Hiss~~~~
The director took a breath.

Can I be invited?
What level is this?
He asked about the general situation in detail, and the more he listened, the more shocked he became.

"I didn't expect your boss to be such a big shot..." The director looked at Gong Wei and sighed, "I didn't expect you to have such an opportunity."

Gong Wei: "I still want to thank you for approving my departure."

The director waved his hand.

……

Guan Zu,

Besides him, the other people who came to the capital this time included Boss Li, Boss Zheng, and Tycoon Huo...they all came.

But Guan Zu did not join them.

Guan Zu saw the legendary painting "Ode to Life" at the airport.

This painting is a very historically significant one.

When Beijing Capital International Airport was completed in 1979, CAFA organized artists to create murals for the terminal hall. In October of the same year, a group of Chinese murals was completed, which aroused strong repercussions at home and abroad.

The most controversial mural, "Ode to Life," boldly depicts a naked Dai girl bathing, depicting the Dai people of Xishuangbanna partying and blessing each other during the traditional Water Splashing Festival.

At that time, overseas media exclaimed: "For the first time, a female body appeared in a mural in a public place in China, demonstrating the true significance of China's change..."

There was then a partial obstruction until the 1990 Imperial Capital Asian Games, when the obstruction was removed and the full view was revealed.

This mural caused a sensation from the beginning. Despite constant controversy and fierce opposition, in the end... it can be regarded as a testimony to the changing times.

After arriving in the imperial capital,

First they checked into the hotel, and then the reception team took Guan Zu, Ruan Mei, and Xu Zhengyang to visit the imperial capital.

The weather in the capital at the end of September was a bit windy and chilly, so I wore two sets of clothes.

I climbed the Great Wall, visited the Forbidden City, and visited Yuanmingyuan, the Summer Palace, Jingshan, Tsinghua University, and Peking University. I also ate authentic Beijing roast duck, which was not from Wangfujing. It was in a small bungalow, a very run-down place. I heard that even Nixon had been there.

After two days of sightseeing, a reception dinner was held in the Great Hall in the evening. There were thousands of people and it was very lively. Guan Zu followed Zheng Daheng and others to meet a group of leaders.

At night, 22:,
Gong Wei and his friends saw Guan Zu appear at the reception on TV news.

"The leaders cordially met with patriotic Hong Kong businessmen from Hong Kong Island..."

“This is my boss.”

"Wow, your boss is so young?"

"Too young, isn't it?"

Many neighbors exclaimed.

A new day has arrived.

Guan Zu and Ruan Mei ran to Tiananmen Square at around 3 o'clock to queue up for admission. The number of people gradually gathered, and it exceeded at least tens of thousands of people.

Until 6:10,

The sun rises in the east, and its path is bright!
In the big square, the flag-raising ceremony begins as the sun rises, and the red flag rises slowly!

As the song floated, the instinct deep in Guan Zu's soul revived. He raised his head solemnly, his eyes fixed on the subject, humming a song...his body couldn't help but be filled with blood!

Ruan Mei would never understand this feeling, at least she doesn't understand this kind of enthusiasm now.

In the following days, Guan Zu met with his leaders, talked a lot with them, and then visited some attractions in the imperial capital.

On October 10, we prepared to set off and return to Hong Kong Island.

……

in the alley.

"Xiao Gu, you must come back to see me next year~~~"

"Xiao Pang, when I save up enough pocket money, I'll buy you a plane ticket to Hong Kong Island..."

"Okay~~"

The two children waved goodbye at the entrance of the alley, reluctant to leave.

Gong Gu finally followed Gong Wei out of the alley, waving his hand from afar, getting farther and farther away, until he finally disappeared...

……

……

Evening, 18:42,

The great boss Guan Zu returned to his loyal Hong Kong Island.

A Hong Kong Dragon plane landed at the airport, and Guan Zu and Ruan Mei finally returned to Hong Kong Island.

Returned to Causeway Bay in a black Chevrolet.

The car just stopped.
"Brother Zu, did you bring any gifts?!" Wuying came over to open the car door, greeted him, and asked with a chuckle.

"Yes, do you want some authentic imperial capital soy milk?" Guan Zu took out a bottle of soy milk with a smile.

“Yes~~~” the black fly shouted anxiously.

2 minutes later……

"Forget it, forget it. I don't think I deserve such a good thing. I think if I give it to A-Ren, A-Qiu and the others, they should like it..." Wuying said righteously.

Then he took the bottle and went to find Chen Yongren.

This time when I came back from the imperial capital, I naturally brought a lot of gifts, all of which were imperial capital characteristics, such as Forbidden City bookmarks, silk scarves, specialty food Beijing Eight Pieces, and Donkey Rolls...

……

……

a new day,
Guan Zu officially started working and strived to be a good worker!
Arriving at the Five Star Group Building,

Walk into the office and have a cup of Niuma tea.

The first wave of reports: Fang Zhanbo’s profit from the “Swire Group short selling” settlement on September 9.

After deducting commissions and interest, the total profit was HK$24 billion.

Since Guan Zu was not there, Gao Jin was authorized to sign.

The second wave of reports: Wu Lianqian’s investigation progress on the electronics factory.

"Currently, the more high-end electronics factories are concentrated in Dapu Industrial Park."

Speaking of Hong Kong Island's electronics industry, it is very developed.

In the early 60s, due to the preferential tax-free treatment of imports and exports as a free port of Hong Kong Island and the extensive channels and well-informed information, several well-known American electronics companies set up factories in Hong Kong Island to assemble discrete components, which promoted the rapid development of Hong Kong Island's electronics industry.

By 1970, there were 230 electronics factories employing 3.8 workers.

In the 80s, Hong Kong's electronics industry ushered in its second wave of climax. Foreign technology and equipment were introduced in Tai Po Industrial Village, and several factories producing integrated circuits, such as Xinghua, Huake, and Aika, were built.

Hong Kong's electronics industry is no longer limited to the manufacture of simple products such as radios, tape recorders, electronic watches, and calculators, but has begun to enter the field of multi-layer circuit boards, computer peripherals, advanced communication equipment, audio equipment, and other products.

In 1989, there were 2009 electronics factories in Hong Kong Island, with export value reaching HK$558.18 billion.

"Xinghua, Huake...are these Chinese-funded?"

Guan Zu knew the name very well as soon as he saw it.

Wu Lianqian: "Xinghua and Huake are both Chinese-funded... Among them, China Resources is the major shareholder of Huake..."

Guan Zu: “…………”

I didn't expect it to come back.

An old acquaintance of China Resources!

But why do we hear less about this company in later generations?

The one that is heard most in later generations is Huawei.

What Guan Zu didn’t know was that Hong Kong Island’s electronics industry had been gradually declining since the 90s.

The reason is that at this time the governments of Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and Singapore are all pouring a lot of resources into the semiconductor and integrated circuit industries, while Hong Kong Island, under the influence of the UK's "active non-intervention model" policy, has basically no policy support for semiconductors and is left to fend for itself.

Another reason is that the financial and real estate industries are well developed, and a large amount of capital and talent are flowing into these fields, while the number of technical talents has not increased much.

In addition,

Around 2000, the Hong Kong government proposed the "Cyberport" plan, which was originally intended to support the development of local Internet and other technology industries, but eventually evolved into a real estate development project.

The final opportunity to impact the electronics industry was lost.

Guan Zu: "How are these electronics factories doing now?"

Wu Lianqian: "At present, it is still losing money, or not making much money..."

After the report,

Guan Zu’s first reaction was to find Mr. Zhu from China Resources.

……

……

10 month 7 day,
The sun shines on the Oura Industrial Zone on Hong Kong Island.

Guan Zu, Fang Ting, Gao Jin, A Hua and other members of the Five Star Group, as well as Mr. Zhu from China Resources, came to the Huake Electronics Factory with the warm reception of Huake.

"Welcome Mr. Guan and everyone to visit the Huake Electronics Factory..."

Led by the general manager and the engineer, everyone walked towards the production area. Along the way, the general manager began to introduce.

Huake Electronics was established in 1983. China Resources Group, together with the former Fourth Machinery, Seventh Machinery and Foreign Economics, jointly established this microelectronics company in Hong Kong Island and built China's first 4-inch wafer production line, which is an important foundation for the development of China's semiconductor industry.

However, in 1988, several shareholders withdrew and China Resources acquired their shares and became the largest shareholder.

As for the reason for withdrawal, outside speculation is that it was due to loss of money.

Guan Zu and others visited the wafer manufacturing workshop...

Then we visited the integrated circuit workshop...

And integrated circuit packaging...

And the optocoupler product production area...

The general manager said: "We can basically provide customers with one-stop services from chip manufacturing to packaging and testing."

at night,

Guan Zu brought Ruan Mei to visit Mr. Zhu's home and had a dinner. Then Guan Zu and Mr. Zhu discussed their purpose in the study.

"I currently have a very complete technology called vcd..."

Guan Zu talked about the advantages of VCD

Higher resolution, better color reproduction, and not affected by the number of playbacks, always clear and stable; small size and easy to carry and store; storage, low production cost...

The advantages of VCD are undoubtedly huge.

After listening to this, Mr. Zhu realized this huge market.

What’s even more exciting is that you can earn money internationally, that is, US dollars!
What is US dollar?
Foreign exchange is in short supply in the country!
"I now need an electronics factory and a large number of technical personnel to bypass other people's patents and build my own professional barriers..."

"In addition, there is a large demand for parts manufacturing, and the optical disc manufacturing plant..."

"Moreover, if VCDs are to be widely popularized, there needs to be a certain policy bias... For example, the promotion of pirated discs..."

"As long as there is a lot of support, VCD can snowball, with increasing funds, improving technology, and building a patent moat... Then it can enter foreign markets, defeat competitors, and take over their entire market..."

After Guan Zu went to the imperial capital, his status had changed.

Therefore, some needs can be expressed directly.

After listening to this, Mr. Zhu made the decision: "Huake can take out most of the shares to facilitate this cooperation..."

"In addition, if there is demand, we at China Resources can join hands with other Chinese-funded electronic companies to establish more supporting industries in Hong Kong Island and Shenzhen, and work together to make this pie bigger!"

He realized that this was a very good opportunity for the electronics industry to take off!

With the help of VCDs, they plundered profits from all over the world, used the funds to recruit more scientific and technological talents, continued to delve into the fields of chips and semiconductors, improved their technological level, and caught up with foreign countries.

Guan Zu smiled and extended his hand: "Happy cooperation!"

He has not made large-scale investment or cooperation in the country, so this VCD cooperation will be an opportunity.

Mr. Zhu: “It’s a pleasure to cooperate with you!”

shake hands!

With the initial intention, the next step will be easy to discuss.

Both parties are people with a big picture, and there is no point in fighting over this small share. For the Five Star Group and the country, this little benefit is nothing.
