Chapter 430 Shikumen

Of course, the Shanghai Stock Exchange is not for Wang Deming, but for the Hong Kong businessmen behind Wang Deming.

After coming to this era, combined with his past life experiences, Wang Deming finally understood why our ancestors always emphasized moderation?
Because it's really not okay to turn left one moment and right the next.

Now I don’t know how to promote it?
Our original goal has always been to liberate all of humanity, especially those at the bottom of society in the United States who are living in dire straits.

Although we are a little lacking in material things, we are still very full in spirit.

But after this reform and opening up, Sichuan leaders waved their hands and sent at least 3000 students to the United States every year.

Just like studying in the Soviet Union before, these places to study in the United States instantly caused a wave.

Among them, it must be mentioned that the imported Japanese drama "The Manhunt" and the American drama "Garrison's Gorillas" have set off a domestic viewing craze and aroused the Chinese people's longing for life abroad.
This is also the reason why frog-eye glasses and bell-bottom pants are popular.

But what is different from studying in the Soviet Union is that those who studied in the Soviet Union all came back to build the motherland.

You can study in the United States. According to statistics, from 78 to 2000, the state sent 5.2 people abroad, and work units sent 10.2 people abroad. In addition, after the private study abroad policy was liberalized in 84, at least hundreds of thousands of people went abroad to study.

Wang Deming also knows one thing that many people don’t know. Instead, they have been promoting the fact that we were too closed before the reform and opening up.

That is, after the interruption of studying in the Soviet Union, after the easing of relations with the United States in 72, the authorities immediately arranged for government-sponsored study abroad. At the beginning, 72 and 20 students were sent to France and Britain at the end of 16.

By 1978, China had sent 57 students to 1416 countries and regions, an average of 200 students per year.

Then again, it's not just the wave of studying abroad, but also those whose families have connections abroad, such as in Hong Kong or Taiwan?
In an instant, his status dropped and he became a hot commodity.

It is precisely because of this that the pure love in "The Horse Shepherd" makes the post-00s sigh with emotion.

Shanghai is the city with the most external relations. The industrial base of Hong Kong in the 50s after liberation was mostly established by businessmen from Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai. Famous wealthy people in the Republic of China, such as the barefoot god of wealth Yu Qiaqing, were from Ningbo, and the Rong family were from Wuxi.

This time, Wang Deming invited Mr. Bao, Mr. Cao and others. As soon as they got off the plane, the welcoming scene was like that of a foreign leader visiting.

On both sides of the red carpet were elementary school students with red cheeks, white shirts, white shoes, and red scarves. They held artificial flowers made of silk in their hands and waved their hands to express their welcome.
Fortunately, the weather has become warmer. I really don’t know which leader set this precedent and why it has continued like this, or maybe elementary school students represent peace?

"The leaders of the Shanghai Stock Exchange are so polite." When Mr. Bao saw this scene as soon as he got off the plane, he immediately took a few quick steps and stretched out his hand from a distance.

The representative leader of Shanghai was named Wang. He smiled reservedly and said, "Mr. Bao is a distinguished guest that we in Shanghai have been waiting for for a long time."

"We are looking forward to it!"

Mr. Bao quickly introduced Mr. Cao, Mr. Chen and others to Leader Wang. Leader Wang was overjoyed and expressed his gratitude repeatedly.

Because Shanghai's textile industry ranks first in the country. It was the largest textile base in the country before liberation. Today, its branches have spread to the 35th Shanghai Cotton Factory.

Of course, if we talk about fame, the No. 17 Shanghai Cotton Textile Factory is the biggest.

Leader Wang did not ignore Wang Deming's role in the process. When shaking hands with him, he patted the back of his hand to show his closeness and said, "Please come to Shanghai more often in the future."

"I know you are interested in traditional houses. The old-style houses in Shanghai also have their own unique style."

"That's what the leader said!"

He didn't know much about this leader Wang. He only knew that he had a third son who had good connections in the entertainment industry.

Among them, after the death of a female star named Li, the third young master actually arranged a memorial service at Babaoshan.

Anyway, when Wang Deming saw this gossip, he was shocked to the ground.
At the Peace Hotel, after the welcome dinner, the leaders of Shanghai gathered together and surrounded Mr. Bao and others, hoping that they would enter into joint ventures with these cotton mills in Shanghai.

The discussion on the Sino-Foreign Joint Venture Law has been completed and we are just waiting for the official release.

If they can take the lead in introducing Hong Kong's capital and technology, the leaders will definitely see their work achievements, not to mention that Beijing has already taken the lead as a pioneer.

There is a TV series called "Fanghua" in later generations, which describes the scenery of Shanghai in the 90s. Although the protagonists are inevitably involved in love, it also indirectly shows that the hundreds of thousands of female textile workers in Shanghai at that time were a very powerful force.

In addition, the domestic textile research institute is located in the Shanghai Stock Exchange, but I don’t know what they are researching?
The Sanyo brand sweaters that became so popular in the TV series were actually made by a businessman from Zhejiang. It’s amazing.

Mr. Bao quickly reached an investment agreement with the Shanghai Stock Exchange to expand the port.

Mr. Cao and Mr. Chen have reached investment cooperation with two textile factories in Shanghai respectively.

After the agreement is drafted, it still needs to be reported to the State Council, but in the eyes of Shanghai leaders, the overall situation has been decided.

Then he brought Wang Deming, Mr. Bao and others to several old houses, one of which originally belonged to the Jewish businessman Sassoon.

Sassoon's building is called "Garden of Eden" and is located on Hami Road in Hongqiao. It was occupied by Japan during the Anti-Japanese War and used as a headquarters.

After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, it was taken back by Sassoon and sold to a Ningbo native, Li Shuxiong, the comprador of the American Chamber of Commerce in the United States, for 12 US dollars, and changed into the Hongqiao Club.

Lao Jiang and Li Shuxiong are from the same hometown, so Lao Jiang often flies to the club to rest.

The reason why Wang Deming knew it so clearly was that he acquired Wheelock and had dealt with Li Shuxiong.

On the other hand, he had seen news in his previous life that this famous property was owned by Li Shuxiong’s descendants who came to Shanghai with the property certificate in the early 90s and demanded to take back the villa.

Then the Shanghai Municipal Government actually returned it to them.
It really fits the line in the poem: Where is the people’s victory now?
Why did local land administration bureaus set up after the victory of liberation?

It is to confiscate the counter-productive property!
Decades later, if it's returned like this, it proves that I was wrong back then.
Wang Deming suddenly lost interest in buying an old-style house in Shanghai
