Happy Tycoon

When Yang Jing got off the plane from the Kai Tak Airport located next to Kowloon Bay and left the airport, the oncoming aura made Yang Jing feel both familiar and strange.

Due to terrain constraints, Kai Tak Airport is located in the center of Hong Kong Island, and this airport with only one runway was built in Kowloon Bay entirely by reclamation.

Similarly, this international airport with only one runway, at its busiest time, ranks third in the world in terms of international passenger traffic, and directly ranks first in the world in terms of cargo volume!

It has to be said that it is a miracle that this narrow and cramped airport has achieved such impressive results with just one runway.

After exiting the terminal from the gate of the airport, Yang Jing fell into a strange memory of the situation in front of him.

No matter in the original time and space or in the present time and space, this is Yang Jing's first visit to Hong Kong Island, but this does not mean that Yang Jing is not familiar with Hong Kong Island.

When I was in college, even though it has entered the second decade of the 21st century, Yang Jing still likes watching old Hong Kong movies, especially Hong Kong movies in the most glorious period of the 1980s and 1990s movie of.

Fa Ge, Long Ge, Hong Gu, the Four Heavenly Kings, the Principal, Ge Ge, Xing Zai. A series of familiar names contributed to the extreme development of the film and television industry on Hong Kong Island during those two decades.

Movies like Across the World, The True Colors of a Hero, God of Gamblers, Xingzi's Wulitou series, etc. were also Yang Jing's favorite movies.

Through movies, Yang Jing has seen a lot of street appearances on Hong Kong Island in the 1980s and 1990s, so even if he came to Hong Kong Island for the first time, and he came to Hong Kong Island in the early 1980s, But Yang Jing is no stranger to this city from his feeling.

On the way to the hotel in a taxi, Yang Jing could see a familiar street scene that he had seen in movies or TV from time to time. Although his memory was a little fuzzy, when he saw the street scene in his memory, he still felt The first time you can remember which movie or TV this place has appeared in.

Moreover, most of the young men on the street have long hair, and most of the girls have their hair permed. Jeans and flared trousers are even more common in the streets and alleys.

Yang Jing also knew that in a few years, this kind of dress of young people in Hong Kong Island would be introduced to the mainland and spread completely in the mainland.

Among other things, Yang Jing has seen photos of his parents when they were young in the old photo album at home more than once, especially when the couple first met, which happened to be about 8 or 8 years ago. Back then, my dad had long hair and flared pants, but my mom's big braids were gone, and a girl with a permed afro appeared in the photo. If grandma hadn't told Yang Jing with certainty that this is your mother, Yang Jing couldn't believe that my mother who worked as a wheel worker in a cotton spinning factory had such a trendy side.

In fact, until the advent of the new century, Hong Kong Island was the vanguard of fashion in the entire eastern continent, always leading the fashion trend of ordinary people in that huge country.

This kind of appreciation of Hong Kong Island nearly 40 years ago from the perspective of a future person made Yang Jing feel really amazing, which led Yang Jing to stay in Hong Kong Island for two days longer.

Afterwards, Yang Jing went through the relevant travel procedures, took the train through Luohu Port, and entered the boundary of Pengcheng.

In fact, it was Yang Jing's curiosity that caused the trouble. He really wanted to see what Pengcheng, one of the four first-tier cities in China, was like in 1980.

Thanks to the existence of the Guangzhou-Kowloon Railway, Pengcheng, which was originally just a small village, was finally officially established as Pengcheng in March 1979 last year, and then in November of this year, it was re-established as Pengcheng. Upgrade Pengcheng to a prefecture-level city under the jurisdiction of the province.

Moreover, Yang Jing also knew that on August 26 this year, Pengcheng would officially establish its status as a special economic zone, and this day would also be known as Pengcheng's birthday in later generations.

And from this day on, Pengcheng, like a rocket filled with booster fuel, began to take off rapidly, and at a development speed that shocked the whole world, in less than forty years, the development Become the world's first-class city.

This is the famous Miracle of Pengcheng!

Only now, Pengcheng, which has not started to ignite and lift off, is really primitive.

Although Hong Kong Island in 1980 was relatively primitive in Yang Jing's eyes, compared with Pengcheng, which is just across the river, Hong Kong Island is in the sky, and Pengcheng, which has not yet started, is a complete mud leg.

At this time, Pengcheng has not yet kicked off the prelude to the large-scale construction, and this small city is still a pure original ecology at this time.

There are seven railway stations in Pengcheng in later generations, but now, there is only one small and pitiful railway station, and the waiting hall is simply a row of bungalows.

After coming out of the train station, Yang Jing strolled all the way. Of course, his standard crooked nutty appearance naturally attracted the attention of many people in Pengcheng.

In this era, although Pengcheng and Hong Kong Island are separated by a river, foreigners who often appear on Hong Kong Island on the other side of the river are rarely seen in Pengcheng, especially foreigners accompanied by police. rare.

That's right, just after getting off the train, Yang Jing was invited into a bungalow, and when he came out, there were two police comrades wearing white 72-style police uniforms beside him. In this era, foreigners need to be accompanied by police comrades even if they come to travel. As for what the purpose is, it's up to you to think about it.

But Yang Jing didn't care. He knew that one of the policemen with a gun was purely for protecting himself, while the other, a younger policeman, accompanied him throughout the process as an interpreter.

But when the three of them were alone and Yang Jing spoke fluent Mandarin, the two police comrades immediately looked like they had seen a ghost.

Officer Li and Officer Wang, although I am British, I have always yearned for the great Chinese culture. Since I was a child, I have learned Chinese from a Chinese in Chinatown in our city, so I can speak it so fluently. Chinese.

Yang Jing's explanation made the two people understand somewhat, but they seemed to be more wary of Yang Jing.

Regarding this kind of vigilance, Yang Jing also has no way to do it. Who made this situation happen in this era? Now is not the era of later generations, foreigners can be seen casually on the streets of big cities. In this era, when foreigners enter the country, the personnel of relevant departments must maintain a high degree of vigilance.

For this, Yang Jing also has no choice, he can't take the initiative to expose his old background.

In this way, accompanied by two police comrades, Yang Jing walked around the calm and pristine city center of Pengcheng, and hurried back to Hong Kong Island by train without even taking a photo.

The feeling of being watched was uncomfortable, but Yang Jing really opened his eyes. It turned out that Pengcheng was like this in the early 1980s.

It is said to be a city, but Pengcheng at this time is not much bigger than a small town.

Walking into the center of the city, the commercial area near the east gate of Luohu in Pengcheng City, that is, the area of ​​Dongmen Pedestrian Street, is not a pedestrian street now. In this era, it is called Jiefang Road. It is just a piece of asphalt with a width of only five or six meters. On both sides of the road, there are only two-storey residential buildings. The high-rise buildings that rose from the ground in later generations disappeared at this time.

As for the Yingbin Garden Square near the old street, at this time it is an open space full of trees and some stone benches and tables under the trees.

At that time, Zhongying Street, in Yang Jing's opinion, was not as good as the old Jiefang Road. The streets are full of people dressed as ordinary peasants, and occasionally seeing someone passing by on a big golden deer bicycle will cause many envious eyes.

Anyway, at this time, Pengcheng really doesn't look like a descendant. At a glance, it's all those two-story old houses with decades of history.

After returning to Hong Kong Island by train from Pengcheng, Yang Jing spent two or three days going through the travel procedures to Yanjing, and then took the plane all the way north and arrived in Yanjing in early 1980.

Hong Kong Island and Pengcheng can wear single pants and jackets in February, but in Yanjing in February, it is still so cold that people can be frozen into a dog. Fortunately, Yang Jing bought winter clothes such as down jackets on Hong Kong Island, so that he would not be frozen into a dog.

However, Yanjing in this era is really primitive. Even though Yanjing in later generations has surpassed Hong Kong Island by a long time, I have to admit at this time that Yanjing in this era is really not as good as Hong Kong Island.

In this era, most of Yanjing's bicycles are bicycles, as if all the bicycles in the world are concentrated in this great city. Anyway, no matter where Yang Jing goes, he can see a flood of bicycles.

On Hong Kong Island, there are no bicycles, but there are more square cars. But on the streets of Yanjing, cars are really rare, except for those round-headed buses

However, the air in Yanjing at this time is really good and the sky is so blue, which is far inferior to that in Yanjing more than 30 years later.

Yanjing in this era is more like the capital of this great country. Although there are fewer modern things, the simple and simple atmosphere is rarely felt by later generations.

Although Yanjing in the later generations was bigger and more prosperous, it seemed that something was missing somewhere. It must be in the Forbidden City or those protected old courtyards that you can vaguely feel the simplicity.

But in this era, if you look at any place, you can feel the simplicity of the city's thousands of years of history.

If Yanjing more than 30 years later is a rejuvenated giant, then in this era, Yanjing is an old man full of wisdom. The former may be more vital, but the latter can make people involuntarily intoxicated.
