Hong Kong is full of tall buildings and prosperous, with glass curtain buildings standing in this shopping paradise where every inch of land is valuable.

After experiencing the collapse of real estate in the early 1980s, the Hong Kong real estate industry was also experiencing the turmoil of the new and old. Old-established real estate companies have withdrawn from the historical stage one after another. Emerging real estate groups have begun to emerge, such as Land Land, a former real estate "big brother" who was formerly a real estate company. Due to its investment strategy mistakes, its debt surged to HK$15.07 billion in 1983, becoming the largest debt company in Hong Kong and is nicknamed the "debt king".

The Chinese-owned real estate group began to rise, competing for the real estate market dominated by the British in the past. The signal of the replacement of old and new is so strong, just like the joint statement signed by China and the UK on the future of Hong Kong after 1997. The British finally gave up the claim of sovereignty over Hong Kong after 1997. The new era is slowly kicking off. This is an era of chaos and an era of opportunity for the rise of heroes.

In the conference hall of the Sim Hotel in Hong Kong, facing the spotlights that flash from time to time, standing in front of the big screen, Lu Zheng smiled confidently. As the slides on the projection screen change, Lu Zheng explained the blueprint of Wushan's future development concept and the central government's grand strategy for Wushan High-tech Development Zone.

Wang Husheng stood in the corner like an ordinary staff member, smiling at the scene.

Standing with Wang Husheng is Wen Kedao, deputy president of Xinhua News Agency's Hong Kong Branch. Almost no member of the Wushan delegation knew about it. The two were old classmates and close friends for many years.

This is the site of the Wushan Economic and Trade Delegation Investment Promotion Proposal Conference.

A British journalist with a high nose suddenly raised his hand. The mainland investment promotion conference made Hong Kong media feel that the practice was that when encountering problems on the investment promotion conference, you could raise your hand to ask questions at any time. This is really amazing, because **** is generally poor on-site adaptability, which has gradually become a consensus among the Hong Kong public opinion community.

Lu Zheng signaled the staff to pause the slide projector, and asked the British reporter who smiled and stretched out his hand to ask a question.

"Mr. Lu Zheng, I am a reporter from Newsweek. You have been telling us a wonderful story, which sounds exciting, but I would like to ask you, what do you know about new electronic technology? Do you know what your country is talking about microcomputers? In your eyes, is it different from the calculator we usually calculate numbers?"

There was an uproar on and off the stage, and it was obvious that the British were here to make trouble.

Indeed, last year, China and the UK signed a joint statement. In the statement, the British gave up their sovereignty claims over Hong Kong after 1997, which aroused strong opposition in the UK. Many British people in Hong Kong, including many Hong Kong Chinese, were extremely dissatisfied with this and the wave of protests demanding that the British government adopt a tough attitude towards the mainland has not subsided.

This British journalist is also taking the opportunity to cause trouble and wants to humiliate officials from the mainland.

A hotel staff had already walked over and was about to clear him out. At this time, Lu Zheng signaled the staff not to be nervous and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter. Although this question has nothing to do with today's investment promotion meeting, I can answer it."

When a British reporter asked a question in Chinese, Lu Zheng instead spoke a proficient English, which made the reporters in the audience stunned.

Then, Lu Zheng smiled and said, "I answered in English and should be able to explain the concept of Microcomputer you mentioned more clearly. In fact, I personally think it is more appropriate to call it PC by your definition, which is the abbreviation of personal computer. That's right, this kind of tiny computer can be called a personal computer, and is a product of personal computer, not just a computing system with strong computing power that only large enterprises need."

"I don't know much about personal computers, but I know that they have super computing power and storage capabilities. We can manage its hardware resources and various artificial programs through an interactive operating interface system. This is the core software part of the personal computer - the operating system. Among the operating systems that command it in characters, the DOS system is the most popular now. But I think that, such as Apple just launched the Macintosh computer operating system and the Window 1.0 launched by Microsoft, etc., the future of the personal computer operating system. I also believe that in the near future, personal computers will penetrate into our lives and become an indispensable part of our work and entertainment!"

The reporters in the audience were stunned. Nowadays, they are the news people at the forefront of information. Few people have a deep understanding of personal computers. Few reporters present can figure out what the operating system is. As for the Apple reporters mentioned by Lu Zheng, many of them still know, but Microsoft? What kind of company is it? Non-industry insiders are really confused.

Lu Zheng smiled and said, "Because I am engaged in administration, I have a very shallow understanding of personal computers, but I will never regard personal computers as calculators that can only calculate addition and subtraction. Of course, in fact, the two are essentially the same. Calculators can also be regarded as a type of computer."

"Anyway, please rest assured, this reporter friend, although you don't seem to understand the difference between a personal computer and a calculator, it is understandable because this is not the field you are good at. And our mainland administrative personnel will never lead an outsider. If your worries are not necessary, we will never sell your personal computer to you with a calculator!"

There was a burst of laughter and some people applauded. Obviously, many reporters had a good impression of this smart and humorous mainland official.

The British reporter's face turned pale and slowly sat down.

In the laughter, Lu Zheng said: "OK, this question is over here, so I won't be an example. I hope the following questions can be closely linked to the theme of today's event. If a friend wants to know my personal situation, he can give me an exclusive interview in private!"

Amid the kind-hearted laughter, the applause became even more enthusiastic.

Wang Husheng looked at this scene incredibly, and beside him, Wen Kedao said in surprise: "You Wushan, there are such talents? Our branch has comrades who have been dealing with overseas people all year round are quite inferior to him."

Wang Husheng finally came back to his senses and smiled, "Yes, I didn't think it was before, do you know what his nickname is? It's called Lu Gangtou! Look at him now, this nickname is really ironic, right? I don't know how it came about, three people become tigers, and they are mediocre people without attracting jealousy!"

Gangtou? Wen Kedao was stunned. After a while, he finally nodded slowly, and looked at Lu Zheng on the stage again.

...

In Room 1205, Lu Zheng and Wang Husheng discussed the arrangements for visiting Cai Rongtian, chairman of Rongheng Group, tomorrow.

Gao Yanyan, deputy secretary-general of the Municipal Party Committee and director of the Foreign Affairs Office, is also here. In addition, there are Chen Sanshui and several cadres from the Foreign Affairs Office and Propaganda Department.

The ashtray of the coffee table was filled with cigarette butts, and the room was filled with smoke.

Gao Yanyan turned on the exhaust fan with some disgust. Except for her and Lu Zheng, the room was full of big smoke guns.

Gao Yanyan was in her early forties, a very elegant female cadre, and she also had a petty bourgeois complex. Originally, she didn't like Lu Zheng, a rude man, but Lu Zheng's performance at the press conference impressed Gao Yanyan. When she looked at each other with admiration, she suddenly felt that Lu Zheng became more gentle and kind.

At this time, Gao Yanyan smiled and said to Lu Zheng: "Director Lu, you really deserve an exclusive interview with the magazine "People". This magazine is very objective and positive, and is different from what you think."

After the investment promotion meeting ended, there were actually magazines coming to visit Lu Zheng. Lu Zheng naturally declined. In today's era, it is not good to have such a limelight in Hong Kong.

He smiled, but Lu Zheng didn't say anything.

At this time, someone knocked on the door lightly. The person who came in was Chief Li, the person in charge of the Security Bureau. He held a big red invitation in his hand and sent it to Wang Husheng. "Mayor Wang, the person who sent the invitation claimed to be the manager of Zhu Wentong, chairman of Huanghe Industrial, and was waiting for you outside. There was also a car downstairs, and you were invited to come over."

Zhu Family? Lu Zheng's eyes flashed, and many past events in his previous life suddenly surged up, and the figure of a tall and thin man seemed to be lingering.

On the other side, Gao Yanyan asked in surprise: "Mayor Wang, do you know Zhu Wentong? Why haven't you heard you mention it?" Huanghe Industrial is now a top-ranking group in Hong Kong. It mainly focuses on real estate and is in the top three in the real estate market.

Wang Husheng looked at the invitation, but sighed softly, "It's a family friend. I've played together when I was a child. I've been so many years old. I thought I've forgotten me."

He also said to Gao Yanyan and the responsible section chief of the Security Bureau: "What do you think? Do I want to go?"

Gao Yanyan opened her eyes wide: "Of course I have to go, this is a good opportunity. It is a great thing to be able to join the Yellow River Industry."

Wang Husheng looked at the responsible person of the Security Bureau: "Li Ke? Don't you violate discipline, right?"

Section Chief Li shook his head quickly. It was not before the reform and opening up, and there were not so many rules and regulations.

Wang Husheng smiled and stood up, greeted Lu Zheng, "Director Lu, do you have time to accompany me?" Obviously, after experiencing the Cultural Revolution, he was very cautious. If he went to the banquet alone, he would not feel good. Only when someone accompanied him would he feel at ease and conform to foreign affairs discipline.

Lu Zheng smiled and nodded.

Gao Yanyan's face showed a slight disappointment.

Lu Zheng smiled and said, "Mayor Wang, I think Secretary Gao should go too. You are a private party. Secretary Gao and I will use the light to see if we can talk about business affairs. Our Wushan Foreign Affairs Office also needs to make friends."

Wang Husheng smiled and said, "Yes, yes, I'm not thinking well. Xiao Gao, you go together." He, the deputy mayor, is really humble.
