Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

   Chapter 614 Arrival in the capital

  After Jiang Xie came out, Yang Chen began to keep a low profile on the next trip, honestly, following behind the big guys, trying to reduce his sense of existence.

  Although many leaders along the way caught him, he couldn't keep a low profile even if he wanted to.

   However, in order to avoid trouble, Yang Chen still worked hard to learn from Li Chaoren and the others. He would do whatever the bosses did. The bosses didn't do anything or say anything, and he also pretended to be deaf.

   Fortunately, the inland is no better than the coast. Most of the leaders are more conservative. Before the coastal cities have made achievements, everyone is accustomed to maintaining the status quo.

   The more you say, the more wrong you are, the more you do the more wrong.

  Speak less, make less mistakes, and do less mistakes.

   Don’t say it’s good, don’t do it well.

  In the circle of officialdom, everyone understands people. In this turbulent age, it is very rare that a person can guarantee that he will not tolerate mistakes.

  Development or something, that is what the above should worry about. It is decided by the above and implemented below. This is the unchanging rule of China for thousands of years.

  Since there is no death order above, everyone will naturally not force others to be difficult, so on this way north, everyone has delayed a little effort in the south, and other places are according to the normal itinerary, without any delay.

   Capital Station

  Bangdang…Bangdang…Joan

  As the green-skinned train entered the Capital Railway Station, the speed gradually slowed down. After a half-month journey, everyone finally arrived at the destination. Everyone could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"finally reached"

   Yang Chen looked at the car window, couldn't help but muttered to himself, he didn't know what he was thinking.

  Decades apart, he has seen too many different things along the way, the changes in history, which he had not been able to experience in his previous life, but at this moment, he seems to have integrated into it and become an inseparable part of the torrent.

   Seeing Yang Chen sitting still, motionless, He Chao quickly said: "Achen, what are you thinking? Get up, I'll help you sort it out."

   said, regardless of whether Yang Chen wanted it or not, she stretched out her hand and directly tore off the military coat that Yang Chen was wearing.

   When he woke up early in the morning, Yang Chen had already changed into the tunic suit he only wore for formal occasions, which typically required demeanor, not warmth.

   Not only him, even Huo Daheng and others can wear less, so try to wear as little as possible.

   Of course, no matter how to reduce it, after seeing Yang Chen, a group of bigwigs couldn't help but look black, even inside, their faces were full of envy, jealousy and hatred.

   This guy is handsome, but it's a bit too much to come out to grab the limelight.

   Thinking of going north this way, this little guy doesn't know how much limelight he has stole from them. Although the big guys have already gotten used to it, they still cannot avoid pantothenic acid in their hearts.

   On the contrary, the chartering king and Huo Daheng are more open, especially Father Xue. Yang Chen was trained by him. The better he is, the more satisfied Father Xue is.

   Just when Father Xue's eyes saw He Chao, there was a slight change.

At this moment, He Chao was attentive like a little daughter-in-law, and took the trouble to organize Yang Chen's clothes. Although it was already neat, it was still not enough. He Chao checked every button again and again. several times.

   Finally, the train stopped.

   "Achen"

   The tycoon beckoned to Yang Chen, motioning Yang Chen to come to his side, this way north, anyone could see that the attention on Yang Chen was extraordinary.

  The attitude of the leaders from all over the world to Yang Chen along the way, people with discerning eyes can see that, since this is the case, when treating Yang Chen, naturally, we can't use the method of ranking Yang Chen to exclude Yang Chen to the last position.

   In this regard, Yang Chen didn't think much about it, holding He Chao's little hand, and under the envious gaze of some bigwigs, he walked towards the tycoon.

   This meeting is not the time to play low-key. I don’t know how many media reporters are waiting outside. The more forward he is, the higher his status in the delegation.

  When should I be low-key and when should I be high-profile, Yang Chen has been with a group of big bosses for so long, and he has learned a lot.

   Led by the tycoon, a business delegation quickly got off the train.

   In the winter, there were no flowers, little colorful flags fluttering, and after a simple welcome ceremony, Yang Chen and his party were finally arranged to the State Guest House.

The State Guest House is one of the famous gardens in the western suburbs of the capital. The courtyard is full of green grass and clear lakes. There are 16 reception buildings and an ancient building complex scattered in the courtyard. There are more than 400 guest rooms. The first house" reputation.

   State Guest House Park is about one kilometer long from north to south and about half a kilometer wide from east to west, with a total area of ​​420,000 square meters and a total construction area of ​​160,000 square meters.

  Since it was built in 1959, it has become an important place for foreign affairs activities and reception of important guests.

   Yang Chen and his business delegation were invited by the above this time, so they were arranged to the second building of the State Guest House.

  After a short contact, the reception staff didn't bother Yang Chen too much. This trip has been going north for more than half a month. It's not long or short, everyone is tired enough, and even if there is something, they are not in a hurry.

  The suites in Building 2 have ordinary rooms and deluxe rooms. Because of their young age, Yang Chen and He Chao were assigned to a deluxe suite.

   As soon as he entered the room, Yang Chen lay directly on the sofa in the living room, and staged a Ge You paralysis, "Huh, I finally have a place to stay."

   He Chao, who followed behind, saw him like this, smiled awkwardly at the waiter, looked at the living room a little, and walked towards the master bedroom.

  He Chao went to the second bedroom after checking the master bedroom, "Xiaolian, you can stay in this bedroom, it will be more convenient."

  This time going north, not only did Yang Chen bring Junzi and Tietou two bodyguards, but He Chao also brought Xiaolian over for convenience.

   The two big men, Junzi and Tietou, must not be able to live in this room, but Xiaolian is fine.

  The State Guest House has been opened to the outside world as early as after the reform and opening up. As long as foreign businessmen have paid, they can stay in the State Guest House.

   Therefore, Yang Chen doesn't have to worry about the residence of Junzi and Tietou.

   On the other side, the charter king and several bosses have already gathered together. Seeing Father Xue coming alone, Li Chaoren asked in doubt, "Where's Ah Chen? Why didn't he come?"

   Father Xue said with a wry smile: "He said he was tired and wanted to rest. If he has something to do, we will talk about it at the welcome dinner in the evening."

  The charter king listened and shook his head, "This stinky boy, forget it, leave him alone."

   "Lao Huo has been called away just now. We shouldn't talk about business at the welcome dinner tonight. I'm afraid someone will come to contact us tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. If you have any opinions, you can put them forward at that time."

   "Let's talk about it first, some can be said, and what can't be said will be put aside for the time being. We are just here to walk through the motions. What the final result will be depends on how the two sides talk..."

   Everyone nodded involuntarily when they heard what the Chartered Ship King said. Even if they were representatives, they could only represent a part of the Chinese forces.

   For a long time, Hong Kong's economy has been controlled by British capital, and the power of Chinese capital has only gained a little strength in recent years.

   It is impossible to fully compete with British capital.

  Let's not talk about the others, let's say that HSBC and Standard Chartered Bank, which have the right to issue Hong Kong dollar notes, can make them fall from the cloud to the bottom of the cliff in minutes if the two banks want to do something to them.

  Whether it was the charter king's acquisition of Wharf, or Li Chaoren's entry into Hutchison, HSBC was behind it. Without the support of HSBC, even if there is a chance, the two of them may not be able to win.

  Compared with HSBC, the companies under Chartered Ship King and Li Chaoren are insignificant and completely incomparable.

   However, on the Hong Kong issue, even HSBC, a financial giant, can only put forward its own ideas, and cannot completely influence the two major powers, let alone influence the decisions of the two countries.

   After discussing for a while, the big bosses dispersed. There was nothing to talk about. In addition, there was a welcome dinner in the evening. They had to go back to rest and refresh their spirits.

  …

   Early in the morning, on the snow in front of Building No. 2, a figure was swaying back and forth in the snow.

   This person is none other than our Boss Yang.

  When everyone slept comfortably in their blankets, Boss Yang, who was constantly in the rain, didn't stop his daily practice of boxing because of the snow outside.

   More than half an hour has passed, in this environment of minus ten degrees, Yang Chen's whole body is like a radiator, steaming, sweating, and it seems that he has endless energy.

  The cold air entered his lungs, which made his mind extraordinarily clear, and his fists were free, and there was a faint feeling of breakthrough.

   The so-called 'Tai Chi does not go out for ten years, and it kills people in one year. ’

   The boxing technique Yang Chen practiced is very similar to Yixing Boxing, both of which are quick to get started and powerful.

   For a long time, Yang Chen did not deliberately pursue speed, he just practiced diligently day after day.

   Now that there is hope for a breakthrough, it is naturally not to be missed. I saw that Yang Chen's movements were getting faster and faster, and the white snow on the ground around him was affected by his fist wind, leaving a large space in the middle, and all flew to a place two meters away.

   "Huh..." I don't know how long it took, I saw Yang Chen slowly closing his fists, and spit out a turbid breath.

  'Small Fist' Yang Chen felt the strength of his body bursting, and couldn't help but feel a little overjoyed. After finishing his Fist, he didn't need to slack off in practicing every day.

   Occasionally stop and rest without any problem.

   Returning to the room, seeing He Chao still huddled under the covers, Yang Chen swiftly dragged the snooze Miss He from the bed.

   It is rare to come to the capital once, and it will be the Chinese New Year soon. If I don't take advantage of this opportunity, I have to return to Xiangjiang in two days, and then I don't know when I will go north again.

  Yang Chen didn't want to waste time, he didn't want to stay idle in the State Guest House, and accompany He Chaonuan under the quilt.

  Although the people he received had arranged their itinerary, Yang Chen was unwilling to travel around with the charter king and a group of people of a lot of age.

   Originally, He Chao was still a little reluctant. He was angry that Yang Chen would not let her take a good sleep, but when he heard that he was going out to play, it was unpleasant, and he disappeared all of a sudden.

  In the restaurant of the State Guest House

   He Chao took a sip of soy milk and asked, "Achen, where are we going to play in a while?"

   "Where are you going?" Yang Chen ate the meat buns, and said with a satisfied expression, "Press, let me think about it."

  After finishing the plate of meat buns, Yang Chen looked up at the middle-aged woman who was sitting with Xiaolian, and asked, "Sister Song, is the Forbidden City open at this time?"

  Sister Song: "There is an opening. It's almost New Year's Eve, and everyone rarely rests. Naturally, the Forbidden City will be open."

  Sister Song is a staff member at the reception. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, the reception specially arranged for Sister Song to accompany her.

  Yang Chen: "Then let's go to the Forbidden City to see it. This is the first time I came to the capital. The Forbidden City has only heard about it, but I haven't really seen it with my own eyes."

   Whether it is this life or the previous life, Yang Chen has never visited the Forbidden City in person. Although he has seen it in many TV and movies, he has never experienced it with his own eyes.

  This has to be said, it is a pity.

   Therefore, when he came to the capital this time, the place he wanted to go most was the Forbidden City, the imperial palace of the Ming and Qing dynasties.

   Seeing that Yang Chen had already decided, He Chao didn't say much, because she was also very curious about the famous Forbidden City and wanted to see it with her own eyes.

   The steamed buns in the steamer were gone again, Yang Chen smiled at the waiter beside him, and said, "Then what, can you give me two more cages of meat buns and vegetarian buns?"

   Hearing that Yang Chen was still about to eat, the corner of the waiter's mouth twitched twice, he didn't say more, and nodded with a terrific smile.

  Guests are gods, and those who can enter the State Guest House are gods among gods.

   The waiter was just about to turn around when Yang Chen hurriedly reminded: "Press, two cages each, and by the way, a plate of fried dough sticks and two bowls of tofu nao."

   "Thank you" Yang Chen smiled at the waitress very politely, he didn't feel any embarrassment at all for being able to eat.

  Yang Chen stretched out his chopsticks, took a fritter in front of He Chao, and said solemnly: "Ah, eat less fritters, don't eat too much to get acne."

  Under He Chao's white eyes, Yang Chen turned to look at Sister Song who was staring at him with great interest, and said, "Sister Song, I eat so much food, shouldn't I have to pay for it myself?"

  Sister Song smiled and said, "No, even if you eat all the breakfast prepared by the State Guest House today, you don't have to pay."

   "That's good," Yang Chen said with a grin, but in his heart he was rushing to drop blood for the accommodation of Junzi and Tietou.

  After breakfast, Yang Chen and his party took a camera and took the car prepared by the State Guest House to the Forbidden City Museum.

The Forbidden City is located in the center of the central axis of the capital. It is the essence of ancient palace architecture in Ming and Qing Dynasties. It covers an area of ​​720,000 square meters and has a construction area of ​​about 150,000 square meters. There are more than 70 palaces of various sizes and more than 9,000 houses. It is one of the largest and best preserved ancient wooden structures in the world.

  The Forbidden City was built during the Yongle period of Ming Chengzu. It was built on the basis of the earliest Namjing Forbidden City. It is a rectangular city with a length of nearly 900 meters from north to south, a width of 700 meters from east to west, and four walls as high as 10 meters.

   This huge palace complex is a symbol of the supreme rule of hundreds of years of history that once dominated China’s hundreds of millions of people.

  The Forbidden City is known as the first of the five major palaces in the world, the other four palaces are Versailles in France, Buckingham Palace in England, the White House in the United States, and the Kremlin in Russia.

  The meaning of its existence is extraordinary.
