2208【Economic Independence】

Mainland China immediately started consultations with the UK on saving the economic crisis in Hong Kong.

The mainland is still very sincere in saving Hong Kong's economy. Because although Hong Kong is just a small town, its annual GDP in the 1990s was equivalent to 18% of the mainland.

So if its economy collapses, it will be a burden that the mainland cannot bear, so the mainland does not want its economy to collapse.

...

In comparison, the UK is not so interested in saving Hong Kong's economy. Hong Kong is about to return to the mainland in six years, and it does not want to return a prosperous Hong Kong to the mainland.

Second, the UK does not have taxes on Hong Kong. Its profits in Hong Kong are generally monopolized by companies and intervened in Hong Kong's government projects.

For example, Hong Kong's telecommunications companies, HSBC, Standard Chartered Bank, etc. are all British and all occupy a monopoly position, so naturally there will be no less money.

In addition, the Hong Kong government outsources many projects every year, such as land reclamation projects, construction of subways, highways, ports, etc. Almost all of these projects are taken over by the British consortium.

With the help of these means, although the UK does not collect taxes from Hong Kong, its annual profits cannot be underestimated.

However, nowadays, British consortiums still have a monopoly position in Hong Kong. The collapse of Hong Kong's economy actually has no big impact on their business. After all, even in the economic crisis, people still have to make phone calls, save money, withdraw money, and still have to live.

Furthermore, it had already adopted the Rose Garden plan as early as last year, overdrawing all Hong Kong's fiscal reserves in the next few years. The total investment plan for this plan exceeded 200 billion Hong Kong dollars, and it is expected that the final amount of less than 5 billion Hong Kong dollars will be left to the mainland.

Therefore, the UK has long used various means to advance its profits in Hong Kong in the next few years. Even if Hong Kong has an economic crisis now, it will not affect its income at all. Therefore, it does not care about the life or death of the Hong Kong economy at all. Instead, if it dies, it will be more beneficial to the UK.

Therefore, the UK has no interest in saving Hong Kong's economy at all.

However, the mainland has now stood up and is willing to negotiate to save Hong Kong's economy. If it refuses, it will be really not good. After all, Hong Kong is still under its jurisdiction. If it really does nothing, not only will the Hong Kong people have opinions, but the whole world will also look down on it.

Therefore, it is now difficult to get off the ground, so it has to talk to the mainland.

However, it was forced to negotiate, so there is no need to say that it is very positive. It is said that it fishes for three days and has two days of drying the net to praise it. In fact, it is even more ink-like than an old cow pulling a broken cart, and it is negligent to pick any small problem. After many days of negotiations, there is no progress at all.

...

Many media such as Asia TV, Tiantian Daily, Ming Pao and other media have actively reported from the beginning of the negotiations, deliberately delaying negotiations and delaying the topic. The unsincere rogue faces were reported, which made the Hong Kong people feel indignant.

On the other hand, the mainland negotiating team has always been very sincere and has been urging the British negotiating team to return to the negotiating table as soon as possible and discuss the important matters as soon as possible, which made the Hong Kong people very moved after seeing it.

To be honest, Hong Kong has been colonized by Britain for a hundred years, and has received the Xiannao education from generation to generation, and has been around for five or six generations.

After such a long period of colonial rule, many Hong Kong people actually have deeper feelings for Britain than for the mainland. But now, seeing that Britain ignores their interests, shirking responsibility, and not caring about their lives and deaths, these Hong Kong people are greatly disappointed.

"The mainland is so active in saving Hong Kong, but the UK has never had any sincerity. It is actually more like delaying time. It is really disappointing."

"The strong wind knows the strong grass, and the slander knows the sincere ministers. Only at the critical moment can human nature be seen. It turns out that blood is thicker than water, and stepmother is not as good as the biological mother's kiss."

"We Hong Kong people have contributed so much wealth to the UK over the years. Now when we need his help, we are pushing and hindering this way. It's too much!"

Hong Kong people were talking about it that the irresponsible practices of the UK have caused public resentment.

By mid-March, people finally took to the streets, and the situation changed color for a while.

...

Go back a month.

After Xia Tian got married to Wang Qixian, he still lived his life as he should.

After all, they have been together for six years and are already considered old couples. The so-called plainness is the truth, and there is no need to be so passionate.

A week after getting married, Wang Xiaoxian rushed back to the United States and continued to photograph her.

The Wang family also set off to return to Taiwan on the third day after their marriage.

I was also busy with work in the summer and have determined several investments.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that the fashion creative workshop he and Wang Weiwei combined was officially established.

The new company invested a total of US$5 million, of which US$4 million were invested in summer, accounting for 500,000 US dollars; Wang Weiwei invested a total of US$500,000, accounting for 40% of the shares; Wang Qixian invested a total of US$500,000, accounting for 10% of the shares.

The reason why Xia Tian asked Wang Xiaoxian to invest was actually to help her find a way to make money.

Although Wang Xiaoxian will never lack money to spend with him. She now has a credit card issued by American Express, which is unlimited. She can use that card to swipe the plane with the plane.

But then again, not short of money does not mean that you can’t make money. Although Xia Tian can give Wang Qixian money, I still hope she can make money by herself.

As the saying goes, there is food in your hands, and you are not panicked. If a woman wants to live with dignity, the key is to be financially independent, so that she does not have to rely on men all the time.

Like Guan Zhilin, when she had no money, she could only be a socialite and deal with the rich. Now she has become one of the richest little rich women in Hong Kong. Those rich people don’t want to play with her anymore, even if they want to ask her to engage in some serious business, it depends on whether she has time.

Xia Tian also hopes that Wang Xiaoxian can be an independent woman, which is a good thing for her and a good thing for future generations. After all, a child taught by an independent woman is much more mentally healthy than a child taught by a woman who only knows how to rely on men.

Moreover, the flowering period of female celebrities is limited. Once they are over thirty years old, they will basically go downhill. Although Wang Qixian is as beautiful as a flower and has not changed much until he is old, he cannot escape this rule.

So now I invest in a small business and can still have my own career even if I don’t act anymore.
