Rebirth: My 80s

"This station reports that the two-year Sino-British negotiations have yielded results. Today, in the mainland capital, China and the UK signed a draft joint declaration. The declaration clearly mentioned that Hong Kong City will return to Hong Kong in 1997 when the lease expires. , due to the huge differences between the two places in all aspects, the future of Hong Kong City is worrying..."

"...It is reported that the current per capita monthly income in mainland China is less than 100 yuan, while in Hong Kong it is 1,500 Hong Kong dollars. How can such a disparity in income levels be reconciled? Whose interests will be sacrificed in the end..."

"...After the signing of the joint statement, several major British-funded consortiums have successively stated that they will completely withdraw from the Hong Kong city. There have been signs that a large-scale withdrawal of British capital is about to break out. The economic situation in the Hong Kong city is not optimistic..."

"...The famous financial expert Donald Trump said that the Hong Kong stock market may collapse, experiencing the largest decline since 1973. Mr. Donald Trump reminded investors to avoid risks in a timely manner..."

In the golden Silver Spur car, Li Jiankun and Shao Yifu were sitting in the back seat. Zhang Fu, who was in the passenger seat, followed Li Jiankun's instructions and turned on the car radio. Overwhelming comments that were pessimistic about the Hong Kong city's economy came like a flood.

"This guy Tang Naji is not afraid of having his tongue flashed by the strong wind." Shao Yifu complained.

"It's too much." Li Jiankun's eyes fell out of the window, and a black Silver Spur following them turned at the fork in the road.

Dong Haoyun and Li Jiacheng were in that car.

They divided their forces into two groups. Dong Haoyun and Li Jiacheng's main task was to print media, while Li Jiankun and Shao Yifu's destination was "Mount Wutai".

The British-funded group is more active than imagined, using the fastest radio broadcast method to launch wild bombings.

It is not difficult to imagine how Hong Kong stock investors in front of the radio would feel if they just heard such news.

Public opinion is terrible. It is not a weapon, but sometimes it is better than any weapon.

Weapons can destroy the physical body, but public opinion controls the human heart.

Li Jiankun suddenly remembered what the two Freemasons said that day. It would be a terrible thing if the mainstream media in the West were controlled by them.

Fortunately, Hong Kong City’s media resources are split equally between British and Chinese sources. The more official ones are in the hands of British capital, but in terms of quantity, Chinese capital has the advantage.

"Can they arrive on time? I'm ready." Shao Yifu asked.

"We will only be early, not late. No one is more reluctant than them to see the Hong Kong city's economy collapse." Li Jiankun said.

"I don't know what the effect will be. Fortunately, I can say that with only a few hundred million Hong Kong dollars, Jiankun, you really went too far this time." Shao Yifu sighed.

Just at this time, a broadcast came from the car radio:

"...This is the voice of Traffic Broadcasting, and now we are inserting a brief message: This station has just learned from the Hong Kong Stock Exchange that the British-funded alliance formed by some British-funded entrepreneurs has completed the project earlier to make up for the losses caused by the real industry. Open a short position in stock index futures and invest a total capital of 62 billion Hong Kong dollars..."

Li Jiankun shrugged and looked at Shao Yifu: "How can I fight them if I don't go all out?"

The minds of ordinary shareholders are simple. They will make a comparison: the British group spent 62 billion Hong Kong dollars to short the stock index. If the funds provided by the Chinese group are far different, they will think that the Chinese group lacks confidence. This extends to being unfavorable about the market.

Fortunately, the scale of capital invested by the two major groups is basically the same.

Shao Yifu sighed: "But you are still young, and youth is your greatest asset."

Li Jiankun opened his eyes wide: "Mr. Shao, you..."

"Hey, I also hope that the market will rise tomorrow, but I have to consider the worst outcome." Shao Yifu smiled sarcastically.

At nearly eighty years old, he was extremely envious of Li Jiankun's youth. If he could return to his twenties, he would be willing to do so even if he lost all his wealth.

Li Jiankun couldn't help but feel a little depressed. Now it seemed that apart from Dong Haoyun who blindly trusted him...or was superstitious, there was probably only one person who firmly believed that he would win - Li Jiacheng.

Otherwise, someone as smart as this guy would not have spent the 3.5 billion Hong Kong dollars in cash that he had finally raised to buy British capital to accompany him.

Ocean Terminal.

This is the headquarters of Hong Kong City Wireless Television Station, the world's number one Chinese-language commercial television station, also known as TVB.

In this building, it is easy to see popular stars or future kings and queens. This is Li Jiankun's first time here. As the boss, Shao Yifu personally accompanied him and showed him around.

Everywhere a group of people passed by was eye-catching.

The stars and future kings and queens looked at Li Jiankun even more than those fanatical star-chasers.

When passing by a training class classroom, there was an uncontrollable scream in his ears. Li Jiankun followed the sound and seemed to see the group of girls poking at the door: Zhou Huimin, Qiu Shuzhen, Li Lizhen, Zhou Haimei, Lan Jieying...

Then, a voice came from the security personnel's intercom, and the person Li Jiankun and the others were waiting for arrived.

The group of people then went downstairs and came to the first floor of the building to greet them.

There were two black Crown cars parked outside the door. When Li Jiankun and others came over, the people in the cars had already entered the hall. Two middle-aged men were traveling with Yuan Geng, and the rest were staff.

Li Jiankun and Shao Yifu stepped forward to shake hands, and Yuan Geng introduced him. The two middle-aged men had unusual identities. One was from the capital, and the other was the head of an organization stationed in Hong Kong.

The three of them all had resolute personalities. They declined Shao Yifu's invitation to entertain and immediately went to work.

There is a studio ready in the building. During prime time tonight at 8 o'clock, TVB will broadcast an interview live.

The guests were none other than Yuan Geng.

There are still a lot of things to do before the official live broadcast.

Li Jiankun originally wanted to have dinner with them, but the three workaholics who were busy with rehearsals did not spare the time. Simply deal with each other randomly.

In a lounge, halfway through a roast goose meal, Ran Zi knocked on the door and walked in, holding a stack of newspapers in her arms.

Here are all the evening reports from Hong Kong City tonight.

Li Jiankun looked at each item one by one while eating.

There was a big war in the newspapers too. The more official newspapers were all about the economic decline of the Hong Kong city, while other newspapers with a larger number were just the opposite.

Not to mention the residents of Hong Kong City, Li Jiankun temporarily put aside his own thoughts and were stunned. I don’t know who to trust.

Ran Zi said: "The public is right and the mother-in-law is right. Now the citizens are generally confused. I just came from the street. There were people around the newsstand. They were all holding newspapers and discussing a topic, but they couldn't come up with anything. So in the end, public opinion may cancel each other out, and the propaganda in the newspapers will be useless.”

"It's useless." Li Jiankun threw the newspaper aside, so he planned this TV interview in advance.

This will become very critical.

Although the British capital is also conducting TV propaganda and inviting some so-called experts and scholars, the identities of those people and Yuan Geng are not at the same level, especially in this special period.

First of all, all three of them represent mainland officials.

Secondly, Yuan Geng represents the economy.

Chief Zhang represents order.

Director Chen represents the system.
