I Want To Be a Rich Man on Hong Kong Island
Chapter 599: 【Bet 1】
Chapter 599 [Bet 1]
Inviting the gate of Moon Manor, Wu Guangyao and Kaila talked and laughed, looking at the road outside the gate with their eyes from time to time, obviously waiting for guests;
A guest who can let two people wait at the door, it will not be easy to come!
"coming!"
Following Wu Guangyao’s words, the two cars slowly drove towards the manor. Obviously these were the guests of the two;
The car stopped at the gate and walked down a middle-aged couple.
"Mr. Wu, Kayla."
"Mr. Dennis, Thatcher"
Both sides said hello, and walked down the avenue of the manor.
"Mr. Wu and Kayla's relationship is really unpredictable?" Thatcher pretended to be ignorant and joked.
Kayla is a British celebrity and enjoys a certain reputation in the world. After all, the Metro Group is very large;
Then such a woman who gave birth to a child out of wedlock will definitely be inquired by many people who care about it;
While Wu Guangyao and Kaila are not underground, they have appeared together in some places;
So, Thatcher does not know the relationship between the two, it is impossible!
What's more, Thatcher and Kayla are alumni and have been in a'sister' relationship for more than ten years. How could they not know?
asked this sentence, the meaning of ridicule is very big, and even the meaning is sarcasm, for the good sisters!
Wu Guangyao said with a smile: "The laws of Hong Kong are set by the British. Strictly speaking, the relationship between Kayla and I is legal! But in order to take care of Kayla's face, we did not choose to get married!"
Hong Kong Before 1972, the marriage law was promulgated by the British ruling class in accordance with the Qing law, so Wu Guangyao was right!
The hidden meaning of means that since you promulgated the law, what did you do wrong?
At that time, Thatcherton was unable to refute, and could only say: "Maybe this is a wrong historical law, but fortunately it was corrected in time!"
Thatcher’s husband Dennis did not dare to take up this topic, because his wife was relatively strong and he was afraid of getting angry!
Kayla made a round and said: "My personal view of love is quite unique, as long as I like it, no one can control me!"
In fact, Keira and Thatcher have one thing in common, that is, they were both'country girls' at the beginning and found a rich man!
Of course, both women have changed their destiny through hard work. Just one entrance to Cambridge University is enough to explain the problem.
Everyone came to the reception hall of the castle, and the servant offered snacks and coffee!
Taking a sip of coffee, Keira took the initiative and said, “Thatcher, this time I asked you to come here to help your Conservative Party in the general election!”
Thatcher heard Kayla’s words, and the spirit came!
Star Media is a media giant in the United States and Britain, and the boss of Star Media is the son of his good sister;
If you can get the support of several British newspapers under Star Media, then the probability of winning this election will increase a lot.
In the general election in the UK, the Prime Minister is not directly elected, but members are elected;
Parliament is the center stage of British politics and the highest legislature in the UK.
The government emerges from the parliament and is responsible for it.
The British Parliament is bicameral, consisting of the House of Lords and the House of Commons.
Among them, the House of Commons has more powers than the House of Lords.
The House of Lords is called the House of Nobles and is mainly composed of descendants of the royal family, hereditary aristocrats, newly-appointed aristocrats, judges of the Court of Appeal, and important figures of the church, and members of the House of Lords are not elected by election.
The most prominent power of the House of Lords is the judicial power left over from history, so it is the highest judicial organ in the UK.
The House of Commons is also called the House of Commons or the House of Representatives. Its members are directly elected for a term of 5 years. The main powers of the House of Commons are to legislate, supervise finances and the government.
The country is divided into multiple electoral districts with basically the same number of voters, and each electoral district elects a member of the House of Commons. Most constituencies are members of a political party, but people without a political background can also participate in the election.
At this time, Britain has divided a total of 650 electoral districts, corresponding to 650 seats in the House of Commons.
Understanding the system of the House of Commons in the United Kingdom, we know that the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom is not directly elected. The general election in the United Kingdom is actually the election of a new member of the House of Commons.
When members of a political party account for more than 50% of the total number of members in the House of Commons, this party is the ruling party, and the leader of the party is appointed by the Queen of England as the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and is responsible for forming the cabinet.
If the party with the largest number of seats does not have more than 50% of the seats, then it can only form a joint cabinet with other parties. The specific method of uniting or with whom it is united depends on the negotiation of each party.
But one thing is certain, the joint cabinet formation is lame even if you become the British Prime Minister, and you will often be at a loss.
The two main ruling parties in the UK are the Conservative Party and the Labour Party. As for the Liberal Democrats?
After taking power in 1916-1922, he has never been in power again, so the power has been divided by the Conservative Party and the Labour Party, and it has been devastated.
Thatcher said happily: “If newspapers like The Sun and The Times can promote our party’s governance program, I would very much like to see it.”
Wu Guangyao did not participate in this topic. Although he is under British rule at this time, it is better to leave this issue to Kayla.
Kayla continued: "Not only that, if the Conservative Party is short of campaign funds, I am willing to provide it!"
so good?
Thatcher knew that this good sister, she was not involved in political activities before;
Even in the 1974 general election, when I approached her, it was an expression of unkindness;
For this reason, their friendship almost capsized!
Of course, I was not the leader of the Conservative Party at that time!
Thatcher was vigilant, and said quietly, "Do you have any demands?"
used ‘you’, obviously Thatcher thought Wu Guangyao was involved!
Kayla shook her head and said, "There is no appeal, let alone embarrassing you! If you are wary of me, I can assume that today’s things have not happened!"
Wu Guangyao's wife who praised Wu Guangyao's heart is very clever to retreat into advancement!
At this time, Thatcher needs his own side, not his own side begging Thatcher!
Thatcher quickly said with a smile: "You misunderstood what I meant. Our party needs to unite anyone who can unite. How can we push our friends out of the door!"
Kayla said seriously: "Actually, I very much agree with the Conservative Party's ruling program! Your privatization strategy is a great thrust to solve the British economy. Of course, it does not mean that I need to use your power to buy these. Shares in state-owned enterprises."
In fact, Thatcher knew in his heart that the British richest woman was eyeing British state-owned enterprises;
However, this happens to be the person who resolutely privatizes state-owned enterprises;
Anyone can buy these shares with their strength!
Two strong women talked, Wu Guangyao and Dennis talked about golf, and agreed to have a game on the golf course of the manor in the afternoon.
By the time for lunch, Keira and Thatcher have reached the point where they are holding hands.
Coming to the dining table, Thatcher watched Wu Guangyao and Dennis chatting, and couldn't help but sigh Wu Guangyao's exquisiteness.
While enjoying the food, Thatcher asked casually: "Mr. Wu, what do you think of the political situation across Hong Kong?"
Wu Guangyao put down his knife and fork, wiped the corner of his mouth with a napkin, and said, “I’m just a businessman, only doing my business! There are good policies, so I’m willing to invest there!”
Since the 1970s, Wu Guangyao’s mentality has been that he has no fear of the regime that used to be like a tiger.
Handle some sensitive issues, and no longer hide in hiding!
"So are you interested in investing in the UK?"
"I am very interested. I have prepared 5 billion US dollars. It depends on whether the UK will be sincere by then!"
Thatcher was taken aback, and instantly knew that this US$5 billion investment involved the core industry of the United Kingdom.
"Today is a private place, it is not suitable to talk about these things! Mr. Wu, you are welcome to come to me to talk about it formally in the future!"
Wu Guangyao is already exquisite, and what Thatcher is thinking is also clear;
So, Wu Guangyao said with a smile: "Then I can congratulate you in advance!"
