Chapter 422 Going to Hong Kong

In the morning light, the lights were not on in the study, and Zhang Ke and Xu Xueping were both sitting in the dark shadows.

To adapt to the dark and unbright light in the room, Zhang Ke looked at Xu Xueping's thin and gentle face, his eyes were still bright and he could not hide his fatigue. Such eyes would also make all kinds of heartbreaking things in the province tired.

The complete investigation of the Xiaojiang River Basin River defense project has been in the past two months. Whether it is the water conservancy project directly withdrawing funds from the Ministry of Water Resources or the river defense project invested by local finance, there are always problems exposed. Nine cases have been confirmed to be investigated, and more cases have been corrected by local governments themselves. It is not just that the province must work hard to make up for it and eliminate hidden dangers. Everything is exhausted.

"You can probably spend this Spring Festival in the East China Sea." Xu Xueping said this topic calmly.

Zhang Ke asked: "Uncle Xu, where will you arrange for me?"

"There is no clear statement. Perhaps the opinions above are somewhat different, otherwise it would be impossible to celebrate the Spring Festival in the East China Sea." Xu Xueping's reaction to these things was very plain. "There is a lot of resistance to staying in the East China Sea. At your age, it may be a bit inappropriate to advise you to be cautious in words and actions. Jinhu has also been saved on it. Being cautious in words and actions is necessary..."

Checking Haiyu will naturally involve Jinhu. From the secretary of the provincial party secretary Tao Jin, Zhang Ke knew that someone had exposed Haiyu's problem. Whether it was open or secret investigation, the superiors would send people to investigate. Zhang Ke and Xie Wanqing did not notice this clearly. On the one hand, Tao Jin, who was clear about the situation, came forward to say some fair words. On the other hand, after learning about some basic situations, some people still protected Xu Xueping. This involved a higher-level entanglement. Zhang Ke held his identity at this time and was inconvenient to ask too much.

As Xu Xueping said, since he has made an appointment in the central government, it is necessary to be careful about his words and actions. Zhang Ke nodded and accepted Xu Xueping's guidance sincerely.

Xu Xueping changed his relaxed tone and said, "The central government is also considering strengthening the position of the private economy in the national economic structure. This is a major trend of change and cannot be reversed by a small group of people. Kumho has made contributions to the local economy, which is also a fact that no one can deny..."

If it weren't for the 6 billion investment plan at the beginning of the year, how could Jinhu have been able to be the witness of Tao Jin, the secretary of the provincial party committee? No matter who will take over Xu Xueping's position, this will be an important bargaining chip for Jinhu.

"...I discussed with Secretary Tao Jin. Since I am in the East China Sea, I can push forward some work..." Xu Xueping glanced at a corner of the desk and published a Xinhua Insider of Ye Zhenmin's article on the analysis of the economic trend of Asia. He took the information and handed it to Zhang Ke. "The Ye family would owe you a favor. Maybe I have to discuss this article with those from the Provincial Economic Research Institute. Although their arguments have not changed, there are many refutations now, but they are not so firm. After all, there are all in the entire Asian economic system.

Some disadvantages cannot be seen with my eyes open. As for whether the central government will pay attention to this article, I cannot judge whether there will be some adjustments in a small range. The province will take some positive measures. The project of Donghai United Steel and the increase in investment in highway construction next year and next year, the province has been hesitating between several plans, so there is no need to hesitate now. The most important thing to pay attention to is the area of ​​the Provincial State Investment Corporation. Even if the economic turmoil that may exist in East Asia in the next few years, the current problems of the Provincial State Investment Corporation are relatively serious..."

Since 1993, the direct investment of domestic wholly foreign-owned enterprises has been second only to that of the United States, with more than 60% of which comes from Hong Kong. It is reasonable to infer that with these direct investments, international debts other than China's sovereign debts (Xiang Xuehai wants to introduce technology and production lines to local commercial banks in Japan also fall into the category of international debt), and a large part of them comes from Hong Kong and international banks with branches in Hong Kong. A large part of these international debts are introduced through international trust investment companies directly established by local governments (in 1996, there were more than 400 national investment companies in the mainland). According to statistics, the scale of these international debts reached US$60 billion, and a considerable number of them were short-term loans.

The Asian financial crisis hit Hong Kong, and Hong Kong's international creditors suffered heavy losses in other Asian countries and regions. They had to recover debts from the mainland to obtain greater turnover and survival space. Guotou in various provinces and cities in the mainland is facing unprecedented severe pressure to repay debts.

During the Asian financial crisis, non-bank financial institutions such as Guotou Company in the Mainland are probably one of the areas that are directly impacted. The most famous case is the bankruptcy of Guangdong International Trust and Investment Company. The Guangdong Provincial Government invested a total of 35 billion yuan in the next two years to completely resolve the mess.

Zhang Ke thought that strengthening management and strictly controlling the proportion of short-term international debt should avoid direct impact from the Asian financial crisis.

In the following conversation, Shinkwang Paper and Kasuki Hai directly borrowed yen from Japanese commercial banks to introduce technology and production lines. The more realistic approach is to provide asset mortgages to the Export-Import Bank of Tokai Province, and the Export-Import Bank of the Provincial Company to provide credit guarantees to Japanese commercial banks for financing the total amount of yen equivalent to 150 million US dollars of projects of the two companies.

Xu Xueping said: "I personally led the team to Japan's trade delegation organized by the provincial government. Have you decided to go there? Or do you want to go there in person?" The project scale of Donghai United Iron and Steel Group alone involves financing of hundreds of billions of yen. Xu Xueping is responsible for leading the team to Japan for commercial and political public relations. In contrast, Xiangxuehai and Shinkong Paper are both small projects.

Zhang Ke shook his head and said, "Zhou You is responsible for Xinguang Paper. Xiangxuehai is Tao Xingjian, the one who handed over materials to prevent Xiangxuehai from jointly investing with Samsung..."

"Oh, it turned out to be him. His point of view on the rise of national industries in the material is very inspiring. I don't have to worry about not being able to find someone to speak on this trip."

The current exchange rate of the yen is 1 to 79, 1998, 1999, which will probably drop to about 150, and then it will remain around 130 for a long time, with the depreciation of the yen as high as 30-40%. This transaction is definitely done.

After having breakfast at Xu Xueping's house, I took Xu Xueping to the provincial government first, and then took Zhang Ke and Fu Jun directly to the international airport. When I drove to the square in front of the office building of the provincial party committee and government, Xu Xueping suddenly said: "What do you think Li Yijiang goes to Haizhou?"

"Ah, are you sure Secretary Li will go to Haizhou?" Zhang Ke asked happily.

"He has been by my side for six or seven years. I personally can't bear to let him go, but I can't delay his future because of my own selfishness." Xu Xueping smiled, Zhang Ke's attitude reassured him. "Jin Guohai has been training in Haizhou for almost two years, and the province is also discussing his return seat..." Xu Xueping did not say anything in detail. The car stopped in front of the steps of the building, so he got out of the car, waved his hand, and sent Zhang Ke and the others away.

No matter how fair and selfless a person is, he must be emotional. Xu Xueping can take Li Yijiang away with him when he leaves the East China Sea, but what is most beneficial to Li Yijiang's personal future is to put it in a good environment to grow up.

Xu Xueping's time as governor was too short, and it was a loss for Li Yijiang to go down without being able to climb to the deputy director smoothly, but from another perspective, starting from the top leaders of the district and county can more firmly consolidate the foundation of his future career.

Li Yijiang's trip to Haizhou will be arranged directly by the province. There is no need to worry about the extra resistance Zhou Fuming and others will give in Haizhou. The quality of the position depends on how much the provincial party secretary Tao Jin said. It also involves Jin Guohai leaving Haizhou and returning to the province to serve. If the provincial party secretary Tao Jin took into account the balance factor, he would not give him a bad position.

When I arrived at the airport, it started to rain. It was related to the Gaojunqiu Ridge around the provincial capital. The provincial capital often encountered unexplained heavy rain. When the plane climbed above the clouds, it felt like the city under my feet was dripping with water outside. Zhang Ke couldn't help but call Xu Si for a long time. When he sat on the plane, he couldn't help but think about Xu Si's anxious look when he was waiting at the airport.

Xu Si woke up early. When Zhang Ke was at Xu Xueping's house, she made a phone call. She couldn't talk for too long at that time. She put down the phone and had no intention of doing anything, so she decided to go to the airport to wait for Zhang Ke early.

The plane headed south, and its destination was the real Oriental Pearl before the Asian financial storm.

In business class, Zhang Ke looked at the clear sky outside the porthole and the clouds that seemed to jump up to the bottom that could hold him firmly. The clouds were not purely white, and the slightly gray and dark place should be shadows that could not be directly exposed to light. There were two Taiwanese girls next to them, slightly fat and dark-skinned girls, but the pretty girl kept looking for opportunities to talk to Zhang Ke. Zhang Ke restrained the urge to not change seats with Fu Jun, thinking that he would meet Xu Si immediately, but he really didn't speak.

In 1996, domestic airlines probably only have the most satisfactory services on these international routes, and of course they are related to the expensive prices of business class. When talking on the phone at the airport, Xu Si said that she was eating ice cream at the other end of the airport, so Zhang Ke became interested in the ice cream on the bar. Eating ice cream and watching TV. Fu Jun smiled and said, "Shao Ke is like Ke Shao at this time..."

Zhang Ke curled his lips and thought to himself: When he was really eighteen years old, he was indescribable to thank ice cream, which was so sweet that it was so sweet. He paid for the girl to eat Haagen-Dazs for many opportunities, and he never tasted it himself.

Zhang Ke was eating ice cream at this time, and he stuck out his tongue from time to time to lick it. He looked like this and immediately made the girl next to him lose interest in continuing to chat with him.

He didn't say anything, and directly took a box of ice cream and stuffed it into Fu Jun's hand: "Eat together. If your two little girls come here, there will be no share for us." Although the ice cream at the bar looks sufficient, Xirong and Xiyu came over, not because their little sisters' belly is big, but because the eyes and momentum of seeing the ice cream will make people wonder if it is enough.

There was Western food for lunch. The first plate that Zhang Ke ordered for himself was smoked mackerel, shrimp and radish sauce, coffee, and the main dish was vanilla brandy, sweat-sauteed steak and cheese bread. I was not sure if Xu Si would wait for him on an empty stomach, so he just ate a little bit to fill his stomach, took care of it at the airport and ate with Xu Si. After lunch, Zhang Ke threw the fruit plate to Fu Jun for treatment, and he continued to eat ice cream in his disgusting way.

When flying over Hong Kong, the pretty girl next to her whispered softly: "Hong Kong is below." The plane landed at Kai Tak Airport in Hong Kong. Zhang Ke was about to look at the sparkling sea water and the low and rolling mountains. When the plane encountered the airflow, it swayed violently. The air pressure made Zhang Ke's ears temporarily deaf, but at this moment, he could feel more and more sincerely that Xu Si was waiting for him below.

It's ridiculous to think about it. Yesterday, I was still considering whether Zhai Danqing would cause a strange problem to catch her. At this moment, I put Zhai Danqing and other fresh and beautiful women behind her. Xu Si was the real lover who returned to her after 1994.

However, the Taiwanese girl sitting next to her was so scared that she was pale when the plane suddenly vibrated, and seemed to be screaming. Zhang Ke's ears had not recovered yet, but just smiled at her calmly: There is no need to make a fuss.

The procedures for getting off the plane are quite complicated. It seems even more difficult for those passengers who transfer to Taiwan to avoid getting lost in the huge Hong Kong airport.

The two Taiwanese girls on the plane also have their destinations in Hong Kong. It doesn’t matter if they can speak Hong Kong-style Cantonese in Hong Kong. There is no obstacle to speaking English in Hong Kong. As for Mandarin, it will take several years to wait. The two girls seem to be in English. They follow Zhang Ke and Fu Jun running upstairs and downstairs before they can successfully complete the exit procedures.

The ground staff at Kai Tak Airport are all very beautiful. This beauty is different from the natural beauty. It is more about the development of temperament and the elegance of makeup. Girls in mainland cities will have to catch up with these two things for many years.

Xu Si stood elegantly and quietly in the crystal clear hall, wearing a long skirt with tender yellow dots, without applying any makeup, peaceful and pure, and as crystal clear as jade carvings, the women passing by her were eclipsed. The smiles in her eyes could not hide the passionate emotions like flames. The eyes sucked the soul, making Zhang Ke feel dazed from the moment he saw Xu Si.

Zhang Ke came back to his senses from his trance, thinking that at this time, he rushed over and hugged Xu Si in his arms, wanted to scold her, threw his luggage into Fu Jun's hand, and said to him: "Do you know where to go?"

Fu Jun smiled and left from the other direction with their luggage.

Zhang Ke hugged Xu Si in his arms. At this time, Xu Si could not only describe him as temptation. Xu Si was calm, but the hand holding Zhang Ke's arm was very hard. If this was not the case, it seemed that it would not make the inner emotions vent.

"You know that girl?"

Zhang Ke looked back and saw that the beautiful Taiwanese girl had not left yet, and her luggage was in her companion's hands. She seemed to be coming to say goodbye, but she didn't come over and looked here.

Zhang Ke smiled and said to Xu Si: "Sitting next to me, I may be frightened by the way I eat ice cream on the plane, and I dare not come over to say hello."

"You can eat ice cream?"

"I'm afraid I can't talk to you enough, so I'll eat ice cream to replenish the sugar."

"Nonsense, did you hear me say I was eating ice cream?" Xu Si smiled at the Taiwanese girl. Seeing the girl and her companions walking from the other direction, she looked at Zhang Kemingjun's side face with concentration, "You can seduce girls like this."

"I have to follow her if she wants it," Zhang Ke smiled and stroked the strands of Xu Sipiao's hair behind his forehead, "Have you eaten Chinese food?"

"I can't bear to be hungry and I just filled my stomach." Xu Si pressed his flat belly with his hand and smiled a little shyly.

"Me too."

Kai Tak Airport has a top-floor restaurant that simulates first-class cabin layout. Through the glass curtain wall, you can overlook the tall buildings of the Kowloon Peninsula. The sparkling seaside runway and the low and continuous Daiqing Mountains. From time to time, huge wings swept by.

"When will you meet Mr. Sun and the others?" Xu Si reached out to cover Zhang Ke's greedy and unblocked gaze. He then looked at him like this, and he would melt it. He used a serious topic to distract himself.

"It's fine the night after tomorrow, don't be too tight." Zhang Ke held Xu Si's hand in the palm of his hand. Her white and tender slender hands seemed to be shyly dyed with a layer of pink light dizziness, and the youthful and beautiful brilliance flowed over Xu Si's body.

"Ah, I also told Mr. Sun that it can be arranged tomorrow. Don't be too playful."

"Ah!" Zhang Ke patted his forehead, "It's over. Before boarding the plane, I had a phone call with Fu Mingde, and told him seriously that it was the day after tomorrow. Now I'm going to be in the bang."

Xu Si also had a finished expression, and Yuer covered his mouth and smiled: "I let you talk nonsense, let me see how you explain it if you are wearing a slap!"
