Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

   Chapter 852 Elite Class

  Why is it called a disaster?

the reason is simple

  Elites, since they are elites, they must have certain high IQ and ability, and master the wealth that most ordinary people cannot achieve.

Once this group of people has no room for upward development, and they stay in one place with nowhere to go, then in order to prevent their wealth from depreciating and their future life not being settled, they may invest some of the money they have on hand. A lucrative industry with steady growth.

   in Hong Kong

   What is a stable industry?

   What is a profiteering industry?

  I think, apart from real estate, there should be nothing else, right?

   And, of course, the stock market.

  Xiangjiang's stock market, although there are ups and downs from time to time, just like the tide, but it still can't change everyone's expectation of getting rich overnight.

   However, the stock market is a game played by the rich and has little impact on ordinary people, mainly real estate.

   We can see many real estate speculators in later generations. Those people are the main culprits of raising house prices. Who are they?

  No brains, greed, no conscience…

   not quite

Those members of the real estate speculators, most of them are able to live more freely than most people without working. This shows that they have more ability and brains than most ordinary people. Live share, which is commonly known as the IQ is higher than others.

   At the same time, there is also the most important point. These people have a little more capital than others. If you have no capital, even if you want to be a member of the real estate speculation group, you do not have that qualification, right?

   Therefore, these people must have certain ability and certain capital to become a qualified real estate speculator.

   and have the ability and money, is this different from the current Xiangjiang elite?

  I think, there shouldn't be much difference.

  The only difference is that there are many real estate speculators in the inland in later generations. They are unwilling to go out to work.

   As for the current elites in Xiangjiang, most of them have jobs, and although there are many full-time real estate speculators, very few people really don’t work and focus on houses and the stock market.

   Most of the elites in Xiangjiang have experienced the catastrophe of the century in 1973. Both stocks and housing prices plummeted, becoming a lingering nightmare for many people.

  The Chinese have always believed that eggs cannot be placed in the same basket, but when both baskets fell to the ground and smashed to the ground, you can imagine what a tragic story it was.

   Therefore, unless there is really no way, most of the elites in Hong Kong are quite willing to work.

  But if society makes it impossible for them to work, let them sit in the office and go to the kitchen in the lobby to carry dishes and wash dishes.

   This industry change, the change of status.

   Then tell me, with a few small money in their hands, the elites who think they have some ability, will they drop their bodies to do those jobs that they think they lose their jobs?

   People often say that it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, and it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.

   Before the return of Xiangjiang in later generations, after twists and turns, how many people from Xiangjiang immigrated overseas and how many elites from Xiangjiang left the city, but what is the final result?

  What did their departure bring to Xiangjiang?

  Xiangjiang because of their departure, because without their so-called elites, did they lose their economic status in Asia, or did the economic growth rate decline?

  No, nothing.

   The departure of these people did not stop the economic development of Hong Kong, nor did it make Hong Kong lose its dominant position as an Asian financial center.

   Xiangjiang in later generations does not look as dazzling as it used to be, not because it is not as good as before, nor because its economy has declined a lot.

   Everything is only because of the rise of the inland economy. The country that once made China extremely poor because of its backwardness has become rich again with the hands of hundreds of millions of working people.

  In the 21st century, it is not only Hong Kong that has lost its glory in the past, but the whole of Asia, and even the whole world, are making way for the great eastern powers that have been arrogant for thousands of years.

   All eyes are focused, and all the lost glory is coming back.

  The revival of a great country, the radiance radiated by it, cannot be covered up by one region or a few surrounding countries.

   Therefore, it cannot be said that the Hong Kong economy is regressing, or whatever. It is only because the rise of the great powers has attracted the attention of the world that everyone thinks that Hong Kong has regressed.

  If Hong Kong’s economy has regressed, what should other countries do? What about those countries that have been overtaken by the inland and their economy has been continuously enlarged?

   Therefore, Yang Chen is not worried or anxious about the departure of those elites in Xiangjiang who are thinking about immigration.

   To use the words of a certain boss in later generations, all immigrants are small bosses, but entrepreneurs will never immigrate.

   A country, a society, a region, what do they really need?

   There is no doubt that they need real socially responsible entrepreneurs, not small bosses who only know how to make money.

Another one, Yang Chen's real estate company is now buying the bottom of Xiangjiang Real Estate. If he stands up and calls on everyone not to run away, saying that the future of Xiangjiang is bright, everyone just needs to stay at home and eat abalone and shark fins every day in the future. .

   Do others believe this?

  If he really believed it, the big guys didn't leave, and all the money was used to hoard land and house, what should he do?

   The population of Xiangjiang is only so much that people can’t afford to buy a house. In the future, the Hong Kong government will provide low-cost public housing to give those poor households a place to live.

  In this way, those who hoard land and houses will eventually sell their houses to whom?

   Later generations already have the answer, all of which are sold to the rich people who are the first wholesalers in the inland.

   These so-called elites, after earning money from inland and then going abroad, will lose more.

   Therefore, the more you go now, the better, anyway, the final transformation of Xiangjiang will not use them, it is better to go to other places.

The geographical location and the environment in which Xiangjiang is located determine that it cannot keep its own manufacturing industry. As the first window to the outside world in the inland, Xiangjiang’s choices are actually very limited. All industries such as finance are integrated, and all industries are grasped together.

  Time gives it no chance to choose, and there are many challengers around, it simply can't come up with strong chips to compete with regions such as the Gulf, South Korea, island countries and Singapore.

  The importance of the manufacturing industry is well understood by all the people in Xiangjiang, but in an environment where wolves are like tigers, its manufacturing industry does not have much advantages. Even if it is upgraded, it needs to compete fiercely with the surrounding areas.

In this case, it is better to engage in the financial and service industries. With the market support of more than one billion people in the inland, and the support of a big country with a continuously recovering economy, Xiangjiang can completely stand out in the financial services industry, and no one can stand in the way. not live.

   This can be seen from the fact that in later generations, Hong Kong became the third largest financial center after New York and London.

   Xiangjiang does not need too many manufacturing elites in the future, and these people will not have much effect if they stay. It is better to let those who want to emigrate move to Northern Australia.

   Just these elites with ability, technology, and experience in creating manufacturing industries, they are what Yang Chen needs most now.

   This kind of solution not only solves the social stability of Xiangjiang, but also accelerates the construction of Northern Australia, killing two birds with one stone, why not do it.
