Chen Musheng thought about it and nodded, "Okay."
If the Third Master and they were really a family, he would definitely not hide their situation from them.
"The people who took Third Master away are indeed related to the E government." Chen Musheng began to explain the details of the incident. "As you know, since this year, due to the mainland's reform and opening-up policies, the connection between Hong Kong and the mainland has become closer. Many Hong Kong businessmen have gone to the mainland to invest, and cooperation in various industries has also increased."
Chen Musheng's eyes were heavy. "This may be something that the people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait like to see, but it's definitely not what the E government wants to see. The development of the mainland in recent years has made them feel a sense of crisis, and the current close ties are making them feel even more uncomfortable. They want to hold on to Hong Kong firmly and not let go."
Su Qingyun frowned. What he said was not wrong. Country E had occupied Gangcheng for more than a hundred years. Gangcheng had a developed economy. There was no way they would let go of this piece of fat meat.
"They may not care about other light industrial cooperation, but they are happy to cooperate on some important technologies. For example, the mainland government and some companies in Hong Kong are currently discussing a cooperation project on ships and shipping."
Ships and shipping? Su Qingyun's expression changed. The port city is backed by the mainland and radiates the world. The port trade has always been prosperous. If it cooperates with the mainland for development, both sides will benefit, which will indeed make the E government very wary.
"Our Xin'an Company and several other large companies in Gangcheng are very important in Gangcheng's shipbuilding industry. They are enough to influence this cooperation. Third Master is concerned about the mainland and naturally wants to promote this cooperation. The heads of the other companies also regard Third Master as their backbone. If Third Master is not here, they will definitely not rashly agree to cooperate with the mainland."
"The final time for both parties to discuss and prepare for the signing will be tomorrow morning." Chen Musheng's face turned extremely ugly when he said this. "If the Third Master doesn't show up, this cooperation will be in jeopardy."
"Some time ago, when San Yee donated money and supplies in mainland China, he was already being targeted by those E-countrymen. Our Sun Yee On is very powerful in Hong Kong, and any move could affect the entire city. They don't dare to do anything to San Yee, but they are capable of inviting him for tea and restricting his personal freedom for a short period of time."
"The mainland has developed rapidly in recent years and has a considerable voice in the international arena. Country E cannot openly oppose cooperation, so it can only make these small moves in secret."
After hearing this, Su Qingyun understood that Xiang Chaojing was the most important link in the cooperation between the two parties. With him, the cooperation could be facilitated to a great extent. Without him, it would most likely fail. Even if they continued to discuss cooperation in the future, they would lose trust.
I have to say, this is indeed a very despicable but effective method.
