The Rise of the Writers of the Republic of China - Chapter 1056

After the two British guys left, Zhou Hexuan greeted Zhong Kailai and Min Sihe warmly, and said with a smile, “You are all Wei Lie’s classmates, don’t be restrained, it’s just like going back to your own home. I live at home these few days, After the port is open to navigation, I will let someone buy a ticket for you.”

   “Thank you, Mr. Zhou.” Zhong Kailai and Min Sihe said quickly.

  Unfortunately, Zhou Hexuan didn’t know much about mathematicians. He didn’t even know that these two young people were future masters.

   Zhong Kailai will choose to stay in the United States and serve as the head of the mathematics department at Stanford University until his retirement, and is recognized as the academic godfather of probability in the second half of the 20th century. He first studied physics, and felt that Wu Youxun’s content was covered in the books, so he read books and taught himself and skipped classes. After being arrested by Wu Youxun and scolded, Zhong Kailai was worried that he would not be able to get along in the Department of Physics, so he decisively transferred to the Department of Mathematics.

  Min Sihe chose to return to the motherland. He is a devout Christian, and it is inconvenient to elaborate on some things. It is enough to know that he is Chen Jingrun’s mentor.

  Because the villa had been abandoned for many years, and many places were severely damaged, Zhou Hexuan could only ask the servants to tidy up several rooms urgently, barely enough for everyone to live and rest. It is difficult to even drink water here. People are sent to buy water from the bottom of the mountain and transport it up by cable car. You have to burn firewood for cooking. And because of the difficulty of transporting materials, the cost of repairing this villa can almost be repaired at the foot of the mountain.

   But Zhou Hexuan bought it without hesitation, for no other reason, just because the summer here is very cool. When he chose to build a villa on the top of the mountain, the real idea of ​​the Governor of Hong Kong was actually to escape the summer…

   As for standing on your own balcony, you can enjoy the scenery of most of Hong Kong Island, which is a side effect that is not considered.

   The most useless thing is to pretend to be a force. In a few years, if you have money, don’t even think about buying a house on Mount Taiping. Those wealthy people can only buy houses halfway up the mountain, the so-called “mid-mountain villas”. In the future, Hong Kong’s supermen, jazz, and tycoons will live under Zhou Hexuan’s feet to put it bluntly.

   At night, Zhong Kailai and Min Sihe both fell asleep, and Zhou Weilie came to his father’s room. He did not have the impulses of the day, but asked with endless doubts: “Dad, is China unable to take back Hong Kong because its own national strength is too weak?”

“No,” Zhou Hexuan shook his head and said, “If the Nationalist government were a bit tougher and sent troops across the New Territories directly before the British warships arrived in Hong Kong, then most of the Japanese garrison would not dare to take the initiative to shoot, which would create the established fact that China has taken back Hong Kong. Britain would never dare to go to war rashly, they can only recognize it by pinching their noses.”

   “Really?” Zhou Weilie asked in surprise.

Zhou Hexuan said with a wry smile: “That’s true. Because the British Labour government’s foreign policy is extremely weak now, as long as the Chinese army occupied Hong Kong ahead of schedule, they would at most send a few diplomatic notes and quarrel. In order to weaken the British power in the Far East, the United States will inevitably choose to support it. China took back Hong Kong. But the Nationalist government had too many scruples. They were concerned about the domestic situation of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, the international diplomatic situation of Britain and the United States, and they were even more afraid of twists and turns before Japan formally signed the surrender letter. Therefore, the British government forced the US president to make a statement, and Truman sent a telegram. Just let the Chinese troops stop advancing.”

   “In that case, why didn’t you persuade Chairman Jiang?” Zhou Weilie asked.

Zhou Hexuan said depressedly: “I wrote a letter to persuade it, but I couldn’t persuade it. I also suggested that Chairman Jiang send a warship to take over the Ryukyu Islands, but there is no news at all. Chairman Jiang’s attention is not here now, he is only concerned about the fall. The district’s reception problem, thinking about how to compete with the Communist Party for the world.”

   Zhou Weilie said angrily: “Then throw Hong Kong to the British for nothing?”

“Chairman Jiang, he is a relatively narrow nationalist, he must have a patriotic spirit,” Zhou Hexuan said, “I guess he definitely wants to take back Hong Kong and Macau, but he must wait until Japan officially signs the surrender document. , recovered by intrigue and diplomacy.”

   Zhou Weilie asked: “Can it be recovered by diplomatic means?”

“Definitely not,” Zhou Hexuan said, “the best time has been missed. If China wants to take back Hong Kong, it must send troops to take it back before the British warship arrives in Hong Kong. Hong Kong is a big piece of fat, and the hungry wolf of the United Kingdom has already eaten it. In your mouth, how can you spit it out again?”

   Historically, the Nationalist government did want to take back Hong Kong, and it also intended to take back Macau.

  Hong Kong and Macao are one body, and the British and Portuguese governments directly formed an alliance to oppose the acceptance of the National Government. After Japan officially signed the surrender document, the Nationalist government immediately used the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and secretly engaged in conspiracy methods, and even sent troops to block Macao.

   But diplomacy is bound to be in vain, and conspiracy and tricks are even more nonsense. Instead, the national government was put together by the Portuguese using the contradiction between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party.

   What Lao Jiang lacked the most was an impromptu decision. The best time to recover Hong Kong was only a short month after Japan announced its surrender. But he missed it, thought too much, and had too many scruples.

   Seeing that his son was a little confused, Zhou Hexuan comforted: “Actually, it is not a bad thing for Hong Kong and Macau to maintain the status quo.”

   “Is it still a good thing?” Zhou Weilie was at a loss.

   Zhou Hexuan said: “You will know in a few years.”

  Why did Zhou Hexuan choose to stay in Hong Kong? Because Hong Kong is the best place to do things and live a small life.

   In the next few decades, Hong Kong will be one of the places with the most spies in the world, what a mess. But this kind of chaos is the safest for Zhou Hexuan, who has money and status. He can make use of the contradictions and connections of all parties to make a mess.

  After the outbreak of the Korean War, the United Nations began to completely block China, and Hong Kong will become the only external window of southern China.

At that time, Zhou Hexuan can smuggle the scarce materials to Macau, and then transfer them from Macau to the mainland – Macau is actually the territory of the Communist Party, and Mr. He, the “King of Macau”, is a die-hard supporter of the Communist Party, and even has the power to print money in Macau. in the hands of Mr.

   How did Mr. Fok from Hong Kong start his business? It is by smuggling goods into Macau to directly obtain the mainland’s river sand franchise in Hong Kong, and Hong Kong must use the mainland’s river sand if it wants to build infrastructure. For this reason, Mr. Fok is known as the “tsar” of Hong Kong, and all real estate developers have to look at his face and act.

   Zhou Hexuan doesn’t want to be the czar of Hong Kong, he just needs to have a good relationship with the mainland. Moreover, he is not afraid to offend the United Kingdom and the United States, because these two countries have too many contradictions to take advantage of, and they will only choose to turn a blind eye to smuggling goods to the mainland.

   Hong Kong is a lot of fun.

   But first, you have to establish your own power. The first step is to contact the Hong Kong Hongmen organization, and the second step is to buy land and build a factory.

   Before the war, Hong Kong had always relied on the shipping industry, but after the British and the United States blocked the mainland, the shipping industry in Hong Kong declined rapidly and was replaced by the rise of light industry. Hong Kong became a financial capital. It was a matter of the 1980s. Because of the reform and opening up of the mainland, Hong Kong’s light industry declined rapidly, and it could only transform into a financial city.

   At most ten years, Zhou Hexuan has the confidence to become the “King of Hong Kong”.
