Chapter 573 Diversified Considerations
Chapter 573 Diversified Considerations
In the evening, when Yang Wendong returned home, he found his children standing at the railing at the door, looking into the distance.
Su Yiyi and the Bai sisters were also there to accompany them.
"What are you looking at?" Yang Wendong followed the direction they were looking but didn't see anything, just the normal scenery of Hong Kong.
The view from the Victoria Peak Villa is great, with both natural scenery and some of Hong Kong's modern buildings, but it gets boring after seeing too much.
"Just take a look. I'm explaining to the kids the history of their father's entrepreneurship." Su Yiyi said with a smile.
Yang Wendong shook his head: "They are so young, how can they understand? Let's go back. There are more mosquitoes outside."
Su Yiyi smiled and said, "They really don't understand, but instilling this kind of thinking from a young age can make them proud of their fathers. When children are young, their fathers should be omnipotent."
"Okay, you can just talk about it briefly. Even if you can't remember it, it will help you have some memory of it." Yang Wendong nodded and said.
The children of the Yang family will receive the highest level of education from an early age. Their future classmates will also be children of Hong Kong's top Chinese tycoons, so they must have some understanding of their own family.
Bai Yushan said, "We have almost finished talking today, and dinner is ready, let's eat first."
……
After a sumptuous dinner, the Yang family's children went to watch cartoons, while Yang Wendong and his friends were in another living room, cracking melon seeds and chatting about daily life.
"Is the opening of the Hung Hom Tunnel going smoothly?" Bai Yujie suddenly asked.
Yang Wendong nodded and said, "Not bad, there are a lot of people today. When I left in the afternoon, the intersection on the Hong Kong Island side was still blocked.
I saw some cars seemed to be fed up with the traffic jam and turned around to take the nearby ferry."
The road in front of the tunnel was built by the Hong Kong government and has a complete diversion system. As long as cars are not close to the toll gate, they can still leave, and motorcycles have even more freedom.
Bai Yushan smiled and said, "All cars in Hong Kong have to go through the tunnel if they want to go to the other side, so naturally the business is busy.
The Star Ferry's car ferry is still running now, but after a while, when the business is affected by the tunnel, it is estimated that many will be closed, and by then many people will have no choice."
Yang Wendong smiled and said, "Yes, it will probably be soon."
The Star Ferry is not a charity. In the past, people could only come to me for travel, so the ferry density and service were pretty good. Now that the tunnel is built, many services will definitely be gradually closed.
Bai Yushan added: "Then our Yang family has monopolized another core business in Hong Kong. We have seen so many British companies monopolize it before, and now it is finally our turn."
"It's true that there is a monopoly, but what Trench told me today must have been instructed." Yang Wendong said: "What he meant was..."
After listening to Yang Wendong's description, Su Yiyi analyzed: "I think what Trench said before was all lies. The ultimate goal should be to make you immigrate."
"Yes, I think so too," Yang Wendong nodded. "The industrial market scale of Changxing Group is a large enterprise in any country. The British economy is not good, so I guess they want me to develop the economy and drive employment."
In fact, this is quite normal. The UK may not care about ordinary Commonwealth enterprises, because most of these enterprises are absolutely dependent on the local market, either in monopoly industries, resource industries, or human resources industries;
The only exception is Changxing Group. Although it also has some advantages of relying on Hong Kong, as its products develop and become popular all over the world, it is not a problem for it to move to the UK at this time. For the UK, it will definitely drive a lot of economic growth, employment and tax revenue.
It is normal for the British government to be tempted. Su Yiyi asked again: "What do you think?"
"Of course I won't immigrate." Yang Wendong shook his head and said, "In Hong Kong, I still have the final say most of the time, but if I go to Europe or the United States, I will be a lamb to be slaughtered;
Maybe they won’t necessarily do so, but we don’t need to gamble. Besides, although the European and American economies are strong now, the Asian economy is gradually developing, so it would be better to stay in Asia.”
In the past, many public intellectuals in the mainland were severely brainwashed and believed that Europe and the United States were paradises for capital. But in fact, the West is far less friendly to foreign capital than the mainland or even Asia.
It is only because of the restrictions of the rules they set that they are reluctant to integrate with overseas capital in order to maintain higher interests, but once it is no longer needed, they will definitely not be polite.
Of course, if they were all ordinary people, Europe and the United States would definitely be stronger than Asia in this era. There is no doubt about this. After all, they have developed for hundreds of years, and it will naturally benefit many ordinary people.
Bai Yujie said, "I've seen many wealthy people in Hong Kong transfer some of their children to European and American nationality. Brother Dong, what do you think of this method?"
"It is somewhat feasible and can be considered a diversified method." Yang Wendong smiled and said, "Let's talk about it later, at least until the child is older."
Corporate diversification is a must, involving customers, suppliers, banking and finance, etc.;
Many large families are also diversified, allowing their children to acquire other nationalities or invest in multiple countries. This is actually the normal thinking of many businessmen to avoid uncontrollable risks and not put all their eggs in one basket.
However, for the Yang family who know the future, Yang Wendong has not yet thought about what to do. He will just wait until the children grow up and make a decision based on future circumstances.
Fortunately, Hong Kong can support multiple nationalities, or you can let your children just get a green card, which is much more convenient. This kind of thing is nothing in this era, and many people do this.
"Yes," Su Yiyi nodded and said, "We really need to pay attention to this aspect. Many Chinese families have fallen because they stood on the wrong side."
Yang Wendong said with a smile: "There is a risk, but it is not big. The main trend in the world today is economic development, which is different from before. Especially after the mushroom came out, the possibility of a major war is very low."
In the past, mainlanders generally had a very low concept of war and felt that it was far away from them. But in fact, it was also because of the strategy of "strike the first blow to avoid a hundred blows" that one generation did the work of three generations and suffered the hardships of three generations.
Because of this, a large amount of industrial aid was even obtained, thus laying a solid economic foundation for reform and opening up;
But in other places, the haze still persisted, even in Europe, so America was really blessed in this era;
The same is true for Hong Kong, otherwise housing prices would not have fallen so much in 67.
Fortunately, the mushrooms are out now. Although they are very lethal, they have shocked everyone and indirectly promoted peace, saving countless tens of millions or even billions of lives.
"I hope so." Su Yiyi and the Bai sisters had actually heard Yang Wendong's analysis in this regard, but they were always a little worried.
Yang Wendong smiled again and said, "Okay, don't think too much. If something really happens, we, as small people, can't stop it. Thinking too much will only do no good. Just live your life now.
I have been working on diversification. Apart from nationality, even if the UK really targets me one day, our family will not have any problems. Don't you see that the Huo family is still very cool? They won't resort to violence now. '
Many people in Hong Kong knew about the Fok family's affairs, but even if the Fok family openly opposed the British Hong Kong government, they were only targeted in business, and the British Hong Kong government did not dare to frame them at the legal level;
He had only robbed some of the British capital's interests, which was far less than what the Huo family had, and his influence was much stronger than that of the Huo family.
Of course, he dared to do so because he knew the future. The rise of Chinese capital was inevitable. After the mainland and the West broke the ice, Britain also became timid.
However, appropriate face still needs to be given, but when it comes to core interests, he will never give up. At most, he will give some dispensable ones and then not bother about it.
