Reborn Capital Madman

For Gao Xian, the driving force of movies is far greater than the temptation of money and the attraction of stars.

Now that the tools are in place and functioning well, Gao Xian of course has no intention of getting involved anymore, and instead wants to focus on more important things.

This year, in April 1971, a major historical event of "ping pong diplomacy" occurred in Sino-US relations, which greatly shocked the international community.

But this is just the beginning.

Just on July 15 this year, about a week after Gao Xian specially arranged for "Fist of Fury" to be released in Hong Kong, US President Richard Nixon announced to the world that his national security adviser, Dr. Henry Kissinger,

, has made a secret visit to the Chinese capital; and he himself has accepted an invitation to visit China.

This major news has a profound impact on the international order that even the United States may not have expected.

Also on July 15, Albania, Algeria and other countries submitted a draft resolution to the United Nations General Assembly, adding the issue of "restoring the legitimate rights of the People's Republic of China in United Nations organizations" to the agenda of the 26th United Nations General Assembly.

Seeing this situation, the United States was of course unwilling to do so, so various struggles ensued.

How can the economy be separated from good governance?

At this time of drastic changes in the situation, it is Gao Xian’s opportunity to establish a reputation for accurate analysis.

Therefore, Gao Xian made a corresponding analysis of Xiangjiang's economic situation in his column.

After the relationship between China and the United States has been greatly improved, the relationship between China and the entire West will undergo positive changes, and the United Kingdom will naturally be among them.

In this way, Xiangjiang's economic development will have a clearer and stable external environment and continue to benefit.

At the same time, the booming Hong Kong stock market has naturally been boosted by a powerful positive force.

If Gao Xian's point of view is not unconventional, then his analysis of another important factor affecting the future trend of Hong Kong's economy - the candidate for the next Hong Kong Governor - is truly inspiring.

Needless to say, the current Governor of Hong Kong, David Lynch, has often been out of work due to illness in the past two years, and the UK has been slow to give a clear statement on his successor, which reflects the difficulty in choosing a candidate.

The reason for this is mainly because the situation in Xiangjiang is too special and complicated.

From an economic perspective, in the past 1960s, thanks to the drive of international trade and the textile industry, Hong Kong's economy flourished, laying the foundation for today's economic take-off. However, the beneficiaries of this piece of cake are only the society.

For a small group of people, mainly the working class, life is still very difficult.

Otherwise, the great turmoil in Hong Kong in 1967 would not have occurred.

If the responsibility for this social evil is investigated, it will be due to various deficiencies in the governance of the Hong Kong government, and the only solution is reform.

But the problem is that the politicians headed by the Governor of Hong Kong, David Lynch, are typical old colonial bureaucrats and have a conservative attitude towards governance.

What is conservative?

This adjective is difficult for ordinary people to understand.

To put it bluntly, after the end of World War II, the capitalist countries in Western Europe have now built a decent welfare society; in contrast, the old British colonial bureaucrats have the motivation to implement the same policy in Hong Kong.

What?

The results speak for themselves!

The wooden house areas scattered throughout Xiangjiang are the best silent answer.

Anyway, prosperity requires fuel and fertilizer, and you are not our real people. It would be nice to have a shelter from the wind and rain. If you are not satisfied, then work hard individually and create a myth of wealth.

With people's livelihood issues, coupled with widespread corruption and other shortcomings, it is not an exaggeration to describe Xiangjiang's society as being golden on the outside and corrupt on the inside. As public dissatisfaction accumulates, the situation in 1967 may be turbulent again.

Obviously, Britain, which has a condescending view of Hong Kong and has an overview of the overall situation, has a clear mind. The difficulty in giving birth to the next Hong Kong governor is the best evidence of this.

What is ridiculous is that many people still follow their usual thinking and try to curry favor with their favorite candidate - the Colonial Secretary Luo Lok-man who is appointed as the acting Governor of Hong Kong.

In fact, Luo Lemin has exposed, and is still exposing, various problems of the old colonial bureaucracy.

To give an example, last year, in 1970, the Hong Kong government established a Salary Inquiry Committee to review the civil service pay scale structure and salary system.

Luo Lemin's policy measures, to put it simply, are to target teachers and nurses without any negotiation on salary cuts!

As a result, a backlash is inevitable, and Luo Lemin has become notorious in the hearts of many people in Xiangjiang.

After analyzing that the United Kingdom should want to select a "new style" Hong Kong governor, Gao Xian also pointed out that with the visit of US President Nixon to China next year, Hong Kong's surrounding international environment will also undergo drastic changes, which will in turn be very serious.

Test the ability of the next Hong Kong Governor.

As soon as Gao Xian's column came out, the sales of "Ming Pao Evening News" skyrocketed that day, with several reprints. Needless to say, the number of annual subscriptions also increased sharply, and calls continued to come in to the Ming Pao newspaper office asking about Gao Xian's next move.

When will a column be published?

"Ming Pao Evening News" editor-in-chief Lin Xingzhi hurriedly came to Gao Xian for this reason, "Mr. Gao, your article analyzing the candidates for the next Hong Kong governor is so unsatisfactory."

"Since your analysis has convinced many people that the next Governor of Hong Kong will be a 'new-style' Governor of Hong Kong, we must have also studied where this candidate may come from."

"I wonder when this analysis will be presented to readers?"

Gao Xian joked: "Are you so anxious?"

Lin Xingzhi laughed and said, "Isn't this striking while the iron is hot?"

"I was worried about being misleading, so I kept some of my opinions." Gao Xian nodded slightly, "Since Editor-in-Chief Lin personally came to urge the manuscript, let me hand in the rest of the manuscript tomorrow morning."

"Don't dare to rush, don't dare to rush." ​​Lin Xingzhi said very considerately: "I know that you have many things to do, so just write slowly. The publication time of tomorrow's "Ming Pao Evening News" will be postponed to two o'clock in the afternoon, or even three o'clock in the afternoon.

No problem."

Of course, Gao Xian didn't have to take advantage of Lin Xingzhi, so the Ming Pao Evening News met its readers on time at one o'clock in the afternoon.

In his latest column, Gao Xian believes that: Time waits for no one, and Britain should have basically determined the candidate for the next governor of Hong Kong. However, due to the complicated situation in Hong Kong, it has not announced it to the public for the time being.

Perhaps, the Queen's birthday honors list in June this year can provide clues about the candidate for the next Governor of Hong Kong.

This is because successive governors of Hong Kong are often awarded the Order of St. Michael and St. George before taking office.

Following this direction, and then using resume, age and other conditions to limit the scope, you can roughly lock in the target.

After seeing Gao Xian's analysis, countless people were enlightened and their eyes suddenly became enlightened.

Ever since, the mystery of who the next Governor of Hong Kong will be began to unfold in front of the people of Hong Kong.
