Chapter 279 Safe Landing
At Hong Kong Island Airport, Bai Xue and her bodyguards had been waiting for a long time.
Lin Shanshan and Zhang Wei saw Bai Xue as soon as they got off the plane.
"Mom, why did you drive straight into the airport?"
"Knowing the airline owner gives me some influence," Bai Xue explained with a smile. "Shanshan, you've worked hard. Are you hungry? Get in the car first. I've asked the chef to prepare a meal. We can eat as soon as we get back."
Lin Shanshan: "Mom, I'm not hungry. I ate on the plane. I had roast duck."
Zhang Wei, his face slightly flushed, said from behind: "We also drank Moutai."
In the 1970s, the country's air service improved significantly, mainly because those who were eligible to fly were either wealthy or influential, and airplane meals were quite lavish.
Peking duck and Moutai liquor are must-haves in Beijing.
After Zhang Wei finished speaking, he greeted Bai Xue: "Hello, Auntie, I'm Zhang Wei. Are you an actor?"
Zhang Wei, as the marketing manager of Xinghuo Technology Company, has an exceptionally high level of speaking skills. He praised Bai Xue in just five words.
Actors, especially actresses, are definitely beautiful.
Bai Xue smiled demurely: "Not an actress, Xiao Zhang, right? Welcome to Hong Kong Island."
As he spoke, he took out two more red envelopes and gave them to the nanny to thank them for taking good care of his grandson.
At this time in Hong Kong, tipping had become common practice in addition to wages.
The nanny quickly expressed her gratitude and praised the babies for being cute, well-behaved, and beautiful.
This amused Bai Xue so much that she forgot all about being reserved and laughed heartily.
The airport wasn't a good place to talk, so Bai Xue led Lin Shanshan and Zhang Wei into a Lincoln limousine, with bodyguards in front and behind them.
The childcare workers sit in the last car, and the driver will take them back to the company.
As you exit the airport, the scenery along the road becomes increasingly bustling; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe it as extravagant and decadent.
"Sister-in-law, I always thought there were a lot of tall buildings in Shanghai, but I didn't expect there to be even more here. And they're all so beautiful."
"That car is double-decker, and it's so tall!"
Zhang Wei had a few drinks and became quite talkative, marveling at the scenery outside.
Outside the car window, there were countless signs in both Chinese and English, and the streets were bustling with traffic, including Crown taxis and double-decker buses.
The bus was covered with all sorts of advertisements, and the popular Cantonese song "Half a Catty, Eight Taels" from Hong Kong Island played from the audio equipment store.
"We, these working-class people"
Walking around buying food all day will ruin your stomach and intestines.
"Find a little bit to last until the end of the month (too much)"
There were many cars, and the driver was driving slowly. After driving for a while, we saw another poster of Teresa Teng, promoting her first concert.
The shop, adorned with posters, was filled with the sweet voice of a legendary singer.
"I'll walk you to the edge of the village. There's something I need to tell you: even though the flowers are in full bloom, please don't pick the wildflowers by the roadside..."
The development of Hong Kong Island can only be described as unparalleled in the world, which is inseparable from the indomitable and self-reliant spirit of the people of Hong Kong Island.
Of course, there are also favorable geographical reasons.
By 1976, Hong Kong Island was already a global leader in both economy and entertainment.
Lin Shanshan thought to herself: According to the original timeline, it would take the mainland another twenty years or so to reach the current level of Hong Kong Island.
However, now that she has been reborn, she will definitely try to minimize this time.
The Lincoln had prepared soft drinks, fruit, and pastries inside. Lin Shanshan had eaten a lot of roast duck on the plane and wasn't hungry, so she grabbed a can of Coca-Cola, opened it, and drank a little.
Coca-Cola entered Hong Kong Island in 1928, but not mainland China until 1979, which shows the gap between the mainland and Hong Kong Island.
