Chapter 225 It Is Better to Unblock than to Block! Developing the Economy Is the only Solution

Chapter 225 It is better to unblock than to block! Economic development is the only solution!!

In Yang Ming's opinion.

No matter what era, people will pursue happiness.

Just like those stowaways who risked their lives to sneak from the mainland to Hong Kong.

The old man asked about Yang Ming's hometown. Yang Ming talked about his father's situation. The old man also knew that most of the people who sneaked into Hong Kong were because of the huge gap in economic income between China and Hong Kong.

If the domestic development reaches a certain level, even if it is relaxed, I am afraid that not many people will go to Hong Kong in this way.

Yang Ming remembered that there was another wave of smuggling around the Spring Festival in 1979, involving hundreds of thousands of people, and tens of thousands of people successfully escaped to Hong Kong.

In addition to the tens of thousands of people who successfully escaped to Hong Kong, some were directly caught by the mainland and repatriated to their hometowns, and some were buried in the sea during the smuggling process.

In Yang Ming's opinion, there is no need to make such sacrifices.

Therefore, he thinks there is only one real solution.

That is to develop the economy!

When the wealth level of the special zone Pengcheng was no longer inferior to that of Hong Kong, people who smuggled into Hong Kong were almost extinct, except for some illegal criminals who still wanted to smuggle or run there.

"Old man, in my opinion, there is only one way to solve the problem of smuggling, that is to develop the economy, attract investment, and attract foreign investment to the Pearl River Delta. After those people find jobs in the Pearl River Delta, they will definitely settle down."

The old man nodded.

He realized this last year.

It was precisely because of that that he was so urgent to invite these overseas Chinese businessmen to participate in the National Day ceremony.

In addition, the old man now feels even more.

Now is the best opportunity for development.

As Mr. Yang said, wages in Japan, Taiwan, and even Hong Kong are getting higher and higher. That means that the industrial chains of many industries and factories can be transferred to China.

Now that the domestic market is open, it is just right to receive these large numbers of foreign-funded factories and industries.

Not only will it create GDP for the country and the local area, solve a large number of local employment problems, and bring a lot of tax revenue, the country will have money, and ordinary people will also have money, which will further drive consumption.

These days, Mr. Yang has been reminding him, and the old man finally realized the problem that he didn't understand.

As for things like sneaking into Hong Kong, it is just a reaction to the problems in domestic economic development.

In the past, it was only solved by blocking, and no one thought about how to solve it by combing.

So it has always appeared.

"Old man, it is better to disperse than to block. In addition to economic development, I think since there are too many people in the country, if these people want to run to Hong Kong, why not let them go?"

Yang Ming had mentioned to the old man a few days ago that the aging situation in the 1970s in Japan is closely related to the economic development of a country to a certain extent.

In Yang Ming's view, things like personal fertility intentions do not need human intervention at all.

In this case, the domestic population will inevitably continue to surge in the future.

That is to say, there are still many people in the country.

Those people want to sneak into Hong Kong to pursue their own happiness, why use these methods, why not let them go?

"Mr. Yang, do you mean to let them go directly?" The old man was really surprised.

"Yes, just let them go. Hong Kong has a population of only over 4 million now, and it can accommodate more people. If we forcefully stop these people who are determined to leave, they will also have a lot of resentment towards the country, and there will be unnecessary sacrifices. When I return to Hong Kong this time, I will plan to mention this matter to Governor MacLehose, so that Governor MacLehose can no longer deal with people who sneak in from the country in the barbaric way as before. After all, the development of Hong Kong also requires a large population."

After the old man finished listening.

He was really surprised.

He really didn't expect that Yang Ming would actually think of this method.

It's not that Yang Ming thought that way, but he always knew that there was a reference.

For example, M country is an immigrant country, and there is fresh blood replenishment every year, so where does this fresh blood come from?

In addition to a part of them who immigrated to M country legally and legally, most of them actually immigrated from the Mexican border.

M country and Mexico also prevented and cracked down, but in many cases, they were just pretending, and in the end a large number of illegal immigrants from all over the world entered M country and became part of M country.

Hong Kong itself is an immigrant city.

From a small fishing village to the present, if it were not for the fresh blood from the mainland immigrants, how could it have become a metropolis with millions of people?

The old man admired Yang Ming's vision.

He also felt that Yang Ming's behavior might be related to his father's experience.

In the old man's opinion, if these people want to leave, then they should not be stopped.

At least we can't use the old methods, such as chasing and biting by wolves and dogs.

He also knew that such things could not be said openly, that is, except for those who really want to leave and let them leave safely, it is impossible to completely open the border between Xiangjiang and Pengcheng. When so many people pour into the small Xiangjiang, Xiangjiang will also have a series of problems.

For example, the tap water we drink is still transported by Dongjiang water.

All the food is imported.

So many people suddenly pouring in, causing public security problems, work problems, etc.

The biggest pressure will be in London and the Governor's Mansion, not in China.

The old man thought that Yang Ming's suggestion was indeed worth considering.

"Mr. Yang, your suggestion is very good. We can send someone to talk to the Governor's Mansion quietly."

"Old sir, thank you very much."

The old man knew.

This is just Mr. Yang's consideration for those strangers!

"Does your father really want to go back to his hometown?"

"Yes, he dreams about it. He hasn't been back to his hometown for more than 20 years."

The old man stood up.

After walking around the office.

"Mr. Yang, do you want to go back to your hometown?"

Since Yang Ming's father is from Guangdong Province, Yang Ming's hometown is also there.

According to domestic traditions, no matter where you immigrate to, as long as you are from there, your roots are still there, and your hometown will always be there.

Yang Ming's father just smuggled into Hong Kong from the mainland more than 20 years ago, and he should still have deep feelings for his hometown.

In this case, the old man thought it was appropriate to let Mr. Yang and his family go back to their hometown.

"Old man, I was born and raised in Hong Kong, and my hometown is very unfamiliar to me. However, no matter where I am, my father has told me that my hometown is there, my roots are there, and even asked me to never forget my identity as a Hakka."

The old man nodded.

He felt that Yang Ming's father must be no ordinary person, after all, he was able to teach such a powerful son.

Now that he has such feelings for China, the old man thinks it is appropriate to invite Mr. Yang and his family to go back to their hometown.

"Mr. Yang, where is your hometown specifically?"

"Old man, I heard from my father that my hometown is in Yangjia Village, Laolong District, Longchuan County, Guangdong Province. However, I heard that Laolong District, my hometown, has become Laolong Commune, and the name of Yangjia Village below may have changed many times. Before I came to Yanjing, I had seen a map of Guangdong Province, but I couldn't find this village on the map."

The old man nodded.

He knew that the administrative regions in China are still changing and have not stabilized yet, and what Yang Ming said is also true.

However, as long as he knows roughly where this place is, he can send someone to investigate and he will definitely be able to find out the truth.
