Chapter 16 Chapter 15 Fire Phoenix

The Wharf acquisition in 1978 staged a decisive battle between Chinese capital and British capital. The leading figure in the aspect of Chinese capital is the famous land king Li Ka-shing. At the beginning of 1978, Li quietly started a strategic offensive, with the goal of acquiring the British shares of Wharf.He bought from more than 10 yuan per share to more than 30 yuan per share. By the end of the year, he had bought 205 of the issued shares of Wharf and became the largest shareholder of Wharf.At this time, Li transferred all the 20 million shares of Wharf that he had already acquired to Pao Yugang, the world's shipping tycoon, and a two-dragon show came, which surprised the British capital group. In June 1979, the Jardine Group, the Kowloon holding group, found out that Pao Yugang wanted to control Wharf, and took countermeasures. On June 20, Jardine Land Company, a subsidiary of Jardine, announced that it would buy two shares of Landmark, plus 1984 From 1985 to 1985, the unsecured and guaranteed bond with the repayment of principal and weekly interest of one cent was exchanged for one share of Wharf stock with a face value of 10 yuan, in an attempt to regain the lost stocks and regain control of the initiative.Upon hearing the report, YK Pao immediately dispatched troops and, with the support of HSBC and Chinese-funded banks, spent 2 billion to complete the task of acquiring 20 million shares of Wharf stock, forcing the British capital to be controlled by the Chinese-funded YK Pao Group.The Chinese capital has achieved an overall victory.

Bao Yugang himself is famous all over the world. At present, with their own strength, Chinese capital and British capital are at the same level, and in some places they have surpassed British capital. It is the famous Pao Yugang, and a long list of names of Chinese entrepreneurs, bankers, and industrialists that make up the economic landscape of Hong Kong. Even people in the UK know their names. Therefore, Mrs. Thatcher also had to look at Bao Yugang with admiration.Mrs. Thatcher was very happy when Bao Yugang said that the ship was named Shiyi.She delivered an impromptu speech at the owner's naming ceremony. She said that the ship named Shiyi is a symbol of good relations between China, Britain and Hong Kong.Doesn't a Hong Kong ship, born in the most famous shipyard in China and named by a British Prime Minister, prove it all?

Accompanying the guests at the naming ceremony was Wang Daohan, then Mayor of Shanghai, who also delivered a speech, which aroused applause from the participants. According to the traditional way, a bottle throwing ceremony should also be held for the new ship, which is to tie the champagne bottle with a rope, and then lead the rope to hit the bow of the ship, smashing the bottle is the best.There is no research on the origin of this gift, and there are probably two explanations, both Chinese and Western.According to the traditional Chinese interpretation, smashing the bottle into pieces symbolizes peace throughout the year; according to the Western interpretation, the hull of the boat is extremely strong, and anything that blocks it can only be smashed to pieces.No matter how different the two interpretations are, the meaning is to hope that the boat will be smooth sailing and the future will be bright.The bottle throwing ceremony is usually performed by people of status.Mrs Thatcher is the prime minister, of course it is best for her to execute.Mrs Thatcher had the bottle in her hand and was about to throw it over the bow.The people participating in the celebration held their breaths, and the venue was suddenly silent.Everyone raised their palms halfway, ready to give warm applause.

Mrs. Thatcher bent her body slightly and threw the bottle in her hand. The released bottle drew a beautiful arc and hit the bow of the ship. However, the picture that people expected did not appear.The champagne bottle fell to the dust.Bao Yugang's complexion suddenly changed.There was a groan from the crowd.An unbroken bottle is usually said to be unlucky. How many worlds Mrs Thatcher has seen, how many grand celebrations she has attended, is now frozen there like a statue.She didn't know what to do as well. If the bottle is not broken, it will herald many shadows. It is not only related to the fate of the ship, but also related to what Mrs. Thatcher herself said: a symbol of good relations between China, Britain and Hong Kong.That said, there is still the most sensitive relationship between countries, which is an international topic.If the bottle is not broken, something is wrong, and sensitive journalists will use this to spread the word to the world, proving that the future of Sino-British relations is unpredictable.

However, a Chinese worker gave people a profound inspiration.Without further ado, he grabbed the rope, picked it up, and threw it viciously towards the bow of the boat. With a bang, the bottle was smashed into pieces, and the crowd burst into warm applause, even Mrs. Thatcher couldn't help applauding. That unknown worker was amazing. There is a saying in China that the trend of the times is like a new boat that is about to be launched, like an arrow that has to be launched when it is on the string, like a girl who has grown up and needs to get married, like a crop that is ripe and needs to be harvested, it seems that no one can stop it.

Just like Hong Kong's return to China. Because it is a matter of course, and because it is reached by the tide, it can only follow the trend of history.Now that the conditions for Hong Kong's return to China are ripe, anyone's attempt to stop it can only be wishful thinking. This Chinese worker showed Margaret Thatcher how to break a bottle. The graceful posture can be called performance art.I don't know if Mrs. Thatcher can learn anything from it. In fact Mrs Thatcher realized nothing. There is concrete and reliable evidence that at the feast that night, Mayor Wang Daohan of the Shanghai Municipal Government hosted a banquet for the British Prime Minister and his party.Between the cups, Mrs. Thatcher talked about the past in a slightly sad tone amidst the rich aroma of Moutai.For the people of Shanghai, the past is unbearable, and the shame of not allowing Chinese and dogs to enter seems to have just been erased.But Mrs Thatcher unwisely talked about how the old colonists made outstanding contributions to the city of Shanghai.

Mayor Wang Daohan is a witty and funny person, and he counterattacked tepidly during the meeting. Mayor Wang Daohan mentioned that during the Second Opium War, Shanghai was like a severely wounded wound, and the mosquitoes and flies in the Shanghai Concession adhered to this wound. The scene is that the bacteria and viruses that the mosquitoes and flies will spread They stayed, but sucked away the blood and sweat of the Chinese people.That's the truth of the matter.And everyone knows that imperialism brings more suffering to the colonies than happiness.Of course, what Mayor Wang Daohan said was not so straightforward. What he said was more polite and gentle, but under the words, in the undercurrent of semantics, there was a century-old anger of Shanghai people stirring.

Mayor Wang Daohan then asked Mrs Thatcher another question.After the dinner, in the banquet hall, the hospitable host arranged a Beijing opera for the British guests to enjoy. The name of this Peking opera is "Fire Phoenix". Through the translator, Mrs Thatcher knew the plot.This is a plot very similar to "Swan Lake". It is said that it is a beautiful and peaceful island, inhabited by a group of white big birds. paradise.However, this place was discovered by a vicious eagle, which broke into the territory of the big white birds and acted like a domineering force.Later, the big white birds fought together and finally wiped out the invaders.

Mrs. Thatcher did not understand oriental art, but she expressed interest in exploring it.Although she herself is a born politician, she is not without artistic talent.She studied piano very hard when she was young, and has a history of playing piano for ten years.She can play relatively large pieces, such as some pieces by Tchaikovsky, including "Swan Lake" and so on.She knows the plot of "Swan Lake" better.Therefore, when she really understood the plot of "Fire Phoenix", she frowned. Does the big black eagle, the invader called the vulture in the play, allude to us in Britain?

In the end, the invader was finally wiped out, which in fact means that it has lost its rule over this land. Does this mean our colonial history? When the vicious eagle was burned to death on the stage, the audience applauded and cheered for it, but Mrs. Thatcher was in pain as if hit by something. But she still applauded politely, and still went up to the stage with a smile on her face to meet the actors and took a group photo with them.But everyone who saw her smile at this moment said that it was the most forced smile she had in many years. It was a smile she forced out with great willpower.A sensitive reporter interviewed Mayor Wang Daohan about why the mayor of Shanghai arranged such a show to entertain British guests.Mayor Wang Daohan replied: This is a play that can be staged all over the world, and its theme is the victory of justice over evil.There is nothing inappropriate, I think, in entertaining English guests with this play.

With a history of aggression against others, it is like a scar. This is a sore spot and a sensitive spot. It is likely that the mayor of Shanghai did not intend to arrange this drama, but anyone who understands modern history will naturally connect with the history of British invasion of China. As the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Mrs. Thatcher would not be ignorant of that period of history. At 2:30 pm on September 26, Margaret Thatcher's special plane landed at Kai Tak Airport in Hong Kong.Her visit to mainland China came to an end. Hong Kong is the last stop of Margaret Thatcher's trip to the Far East. After successive state visits to Japan and China, she will take a short rest here and then conduct a field visit to enrich and supplement her decision-making on China. .She and Dennis lived in the Governor's Mansion. As soon as he was seated, the ambassador to China, Kollida, called and talked about when he would formally submit the documents on the Hong Kong issue to the Chinese government. From his tone, it was clear that Kollida was a little bit too good. After the talks with Deng Xiaoping, Mrs. Thatcher approached Collida and asked him to compile his views on Hong Kong into an official document and submit it to the Chinese government.What she meant was to insist on the validity of the three treaties and formally request the extension of the British administration of Hong Kong in the form of a document. If the Chinese side agrees, the UK can sign a new treaty with China to recognize China’s sovereignty over Hong Kong, but this Sovereignty is only in name. Cullida and Margaret Thatcher participated in the Sino-British talks.Margaret Thatcher's request is obviously quite different from Deng Xiaoping's proposition.Deng Xiaoping once refuted her argument face to face, and now he is desperate to submit it to the Chinese government in written form. Doesn't it seem too blunt?Is it impolite? Mrs. Thatcher said, this is my character!Deng Xiaoping can be tough, why can't I, Mrs Thatcher?Now, Collida has drafted the document and followed her instructions completely. The lines are full of unilateral voices from the British government, as if there was no Chinese government, and it is as if there was no meeting with Deng Xiaoping.Kollida said, if it is sent out like this, will it irritate the Chinese government?What if the relationship between the Chinese government and the UK deteriorates for this reason? Mrs. Thatcher reprimanded him very annoyed, saying that he was the heart of a woman, and that he should consider issues from the standpoint of the country, not from a personal standpoint.She ordered Kollida to immediately carry out her instructions to send the documents to the Chinese government. The other end of the phone reluctantly agreed, and the conversation between the two ended.Dennis came over and told her that when she was on the phone, her daughter Carol had called and told her that the recent chaos in Hong Kong was mostly caused by her trip to China.The daughter is very worried about her body, and even more worried about her safety.My daughter told her not to go to the streets, not to go among the people of Hong Kong.If she insists on going, please wear her special brown field uniform. Daughter Carol is Mrs Thatcher's most loyal and discerning housekeeper.This butler is usually mainly in charge of clothing.Mrs. Thatcher was very particular about her clothes, and she had a very high level of aesthetics, and every time she appeared in public, some housewives and fashion designers would pay great attention.This kind of attention is often not in political interest, nor is it caring about national affairs, but paying attention to her clothing.Mrs Thatcher always managed to make her outfits stand out or catchy.Her outfits vary from occasion to occasion, but are always appropriate, chic, and extraordinary.In addition to Mrs. Thatcher's high level of appreciation, it is also related to her daughter Carol as the behind-the-scenes clothing steward. Usually Carol would set a weekly dress list for her mother.This mostly depends on the mother's political activities.For example, when she goes to the cabinet on Monday, she will prepare the neat and dignified conference suit for her mother. If the schedule indicates that she will give a televised speech on Wednesday, she will arrange the so-called TV suit, the kind that has been illuminated by light. Clothing shimmers on the screen, graceful and elegant.If you're among women, try to dress like a housewife, what Carroll calls femininity.If you are participating in a rally or meeting representatives of the masses, it is best to wear that special field uniform.It can withstand the wrath of people, such as broken eggs, tomatoes and plastic bottles thrown at her.In short, Carol deserves credit. Carol knew her mother well, she was a restless person by nature.She often goes to the store alone to buy things.She knows where to find good bargains and where to bargain.This habit has been maintained until now. On Christmas Eve in 1996, Mrs Thatcher went to the special shop of the Parliament to buy a bottle of good brandy for Dennis to drink back.According to regulations, the price of alcohol in the store will be discounted on this day. Other stores in the city have received relevant notices, but only the owner of this store said that he had not received it, so he refused to lower the price.Mrs. Thatcher did her part and insisted on a discount, saying that she had every right to enjoy the discount.Both parties refused to give in, so Mrs. Thatcher used her eloquence to frequently attack the boss, and finally forced the boss to make a concession, so that Mrs. Thatcher happily took back a bottle of bottled wine. as a Christmas present for her Dennis.This is Mrs Thatcher, the very real Mrs Thatcher. This is what happened six years after Mrs Thatcher stepped back.But everyone who knew her said she would have done that even if Thatcher had been prime minister.She will not let go of this opportunity for ordinary civilians to feel satisfied. Of course, Mrs Thatcher often encountered expressions of dissatisfaction with her from ordinary people.Once, she went shopping by car, and the taxi driver she was in was obviously dissatisfied with Mrs Thatcher's policies, so he discussed with her the flaws of Mrs Thatcher's policies.He didn't recognize the ordinary passenger in front of him as the British Prime Minister.In his speech, he repeatedly called Mrs Thatcher the worst woman in Britain.When she arrived at the shopping place, Mrs. Thatcher got out of the car, and she said to the taxi driver: I am the worst woman in Britain!The taxi driver was dumbfounded. This happened to Carol many times.Once she came back from the street.When the taxi driver heard that she lived in Downing Street, he complained endlessly about Mrs. Thatcher. At the end, the curious taxi driver asked Carol, you are so close to No. 10 Downing Street, have you seen that one? Powerful woman?Carol said: Yes.To tell you the truth, I know her quite well, because she is my mother. Mrs Thatcher was very family-oriented.She makes no secret of the importance of family.Nor did she want to give everything she had to Britain.She put it this way: Family...is very important - absolutely!Whether family life is happy or not can have a huge impact on a person.Blood is thicker than water, family members are always closer than outsiders.It takes mutual consideration.No matter what happened to them, you always help them; no matter what happens to you, they always care about you.You can accept criticism from family members; sometimes it may be difficult to accept criticism from outsiders.Home is where you live. This is Mrs Thatcher's understanding of family.It is not only the country that supports her to work hard and struggle all her life, but also her small family. Now, her eldest daughter, Carol, called and told her to be more careful in Hong Kong. Carol had already prepared a special field uniform for her mother, but she didn't want to take risks unless it was absolutely necessary. Because in addition to the turbulent current situation in Hong Kong, there is also a very powerful underworld.According to a report from the Hong Kong Police Headquarters, as China and the UK discussed the Hong Kong issue, various speculations arose as the times require, not only causing turmoil in the economic world, but also the underworld.There are signs that the Hong Kong underworld may infiltrate and migrate to European and American countries.Before that, they are likely to take risks and set off a frenzy of crimes.These days, there have been several major criminal cases in Hong Kong, all of which are related to the underworld.Therefore, Governor Youde suggested that Mrs. Thatcher should not show her face easily.Youde said that Hong Kong is not London after all. The underworld in Hong Kong has a long history.According to research, most of the earliest sources originated during the Opium War.Due to the British occupation of Hong Kong Island, the residents in this area had no food, clothing, and lost their land. Many people had to drift at sea, and over time they became pirates or made a living by plundering others.Since then, various gangster organizations have sprung up. After the liberation of mainland China, some agents of the Chiang gang also fled to Hong Kong, where they made trouble and staged many scandals.For this reason, it also caused headaches for the British Hong Kong authorities. After the founding of New China, all countries that established diplomatic relations with the People's Republic of China must follow the "Common Program" adopted by the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, that is, resolutely sever diplomatic relations with the Kuomintang group. The British government was one of the first countries to recognize the People's Republic of China.On the choice of establishing or not establishing diplomatic relations with China, the clever British once betrayed allies such as the United States, showing the British' shrewd calculation and rational spirit.I heard that the British government wanted to recognize China, and the Americans who had just retreated from mainland China were angry and anxious, and obstructed them. The US Secretary of State Acheson threatened the British several times, but the British government stepped up to make peace with China on the one hand. People's Republic of China.Why did the British recognize the new China without hesitating to betray their allies?Everyone knows that they are completely driven by interests in China.The Sino-British trade used to exceed 100 million pounds, which is not a small amount. Later, the United States and others stepped in, and Britain's interests in China were weakened, only 6 million pounds a year.After the founding of New China, the American forces were expelled, and the British believed that this was a good time for it to replace it and continue the golden dream.Moreover, British investment in China has penetrated into various fields, from trade, machinery, transportation, mining, finance, etc. to the public beverage industry, with an investment of as much as 500 million pounds.In view of this, the British government, which focuses on reality and reason, decided to establish diplomatic relations with New China despite the obstruction of the US government.But in terms of ideology, the British do not intend to form a close lover with Marxist-Leninist China. They still say they will continue to be enemies of communism and will not change their long-term strategic goal of opposing communism with the United States. This makes the British government two-faced.In order to establish diplomatic relations with New China, it is necessary to sever diplomatic relations with the Taiwan government of the Kuomintang.But in order to oppose communism, they also secretly flirted with Taiwan and formed a spiritual alliance to jointly oppose red infiltration. Certain gangs in Hong Kong's underworld were once used by Chiang Kai-shek's secret agents, which seriously disrupted Hong Kong's social order. The 14th riots that shocked China and the world are one example. At the beginning of October 1956, many residents in the resettlement area of ​​Li Cheng Uk Village in Hong Kong and Kowloon received blue sky and white sun flags and anti-communist slogans from residents' organizations, saying that they would post and hang the flags on October 10. October 10th is the National Day of the Kuomintang, and it is against the law to fly the Kuomintang flag in Hong Kong. The residents have hated the corrupt Kuomintang government for a long time, and their hearts are gradually leaning towards the Communist Party, so they are unwilling to hang the flag for the Kuomintang.However, most of the residents' organizations are members of the underworld Fourteen Feet, and people are a little afraid of them. On October 10th, every household was forced to hang up the Kuomintang's blue sky and white sun flag.This is not over yet, the residents' organization even sent people down to catch the implementation, and if they found that the flag was not hung, they beat them violently and forced people to hang the flag.Seeing that the streets and markets were still not busy, they took action by themselves, and plastered reactionary slogans on the streets, such as the counterattack must win, the restoration of the country will succeed, long live the Republic of China, support the Kuomintang, and overthrow the Communist Party. The staff of the resettlement area office found out about this, and they ordered the flags to be removed, but no one dared to do so.A staff member surnamed Li had to tear up these opposing slogans and paper flags by himself. Someone reported to the residents' organization that the office had torn up the Kuomintang flag, and they were very annoyed. They immediately gathered dozens of people and surrounded the office, threatening to ask the office to hand over the murderer who tore the flag, or they would burn the office to the ground. The staff of the office immediately asked for help from the Sham Shui Kong Police Station. Upon receiving the report, the police station immediately dispatched more than 20 police officers in an attempt to disperse the besiegers.When I rushed to the office, I saw that there were more than 600 besiegers. It is a drop in the bucket with a few police officers to deal with so many troublemakers.Seeing the timid look of the police officers, the troublemakers became more courageous and escalated the intensity of the siege.They issued an ultimatum to the Office to respond within 15 minutes or take action.These conditions are: 1. Re-hang the torn national flag and add a portrait of Chiang Kai-shek; 2. Let the staff surnamed Li who tore off the national flag bow three times to the statue of Chiang Kai-shek as an apology... From these conditions, it can be seen that Fourteen X is completely a political gang controlled by Kuomintang secret agents.Every year before the Double Tenth Festival, the Kuomintang secret agents allocate special funds to the 14th X. They take other people's money and have to do things for the Kuomintang, which is why this incident was triggered. still expands further.Because the office could not fully agree to their conditions, the troublemakers began to attack. They were divided into two groups, one group dealt with the police who came after hearing the news, and the other group began to attack the office. The policemen desperately protected the staff of the office and escaped from the dangerous situation, but the irrational troublemakers were not willing to let it go, so they followed the retreating policemen, and quickly spread the black riots in Kowloon and the New Territories Come. At this time, Taiwan's military reunification agents in Hong Kong began to make their debut.A secret agent surnamed Bi hiding in Robinson Road personally came forward and asked Fourteen X to contact the underworld figures in various halls in Hong Kong, organize five brigades, carry weapons, and go into battle.At this time, the disturbance has escalated into a real riot.The police cars parked on the street were burned down one by one by mobs; the New China Domestic Products Company, Ronghua Tea House, and Dafeng Domestic Products Company were robbed; in the prosperous area of ​​Mong Kok, Nathan Road Dafa Native Products Company, Gai, Food Company, Nanchang Street Gold Store, etc. all looted; On October 11, the Kowloon Police Headquarters, the Mong Kok Police Station and the Kowloon Traffic Department were all surrounded by mobs... The Taiwan side was overjoyed, and immediately sent special agents to Hong Kong to convey the instructions of the most core members of the Kuomintang, so the riot became even crazier. Various gangs of the underworld gathered or coerced many local residents to join in. Crowds of rioters gathered in Qingshan Road, Shixiawei, Laizhijiao Road, Taijiaozui Road, Keelung Street, Changshawan Road, etc., and there were crowds of people. According to the instructions of the manipulators, they wrapped their arms in white cloth, held various weapons in their hands, held high the blue sky and white sun flag, and ransacked and smashed all the targets they were interested in.They robbed gold and silver jewellery, robbed banks, took away everything they could take away, and piled what they couldn't take away in the middle of the road, poured gasoline on it and set it on fire. The owner of a hardware store on Cheung Sha Wan Road hung a portrait of Mao Zedong in the store. A group of thugs rushed into the store and ordered the owner to take off the portrait and burn it on the spot. Not to mention, they also extorted 5,000 Hong Kong dollars and fined him It takes half an hour to kneel in front of the store before it is settled. At 4:00 p.m., the deputy consulate of the Consulate of the Swiss Republic in Hong Kong, Mrs. Ester and his wife, were driving from Kowloon to the New Territories. When they arrived at Tai Po Road, they were surrounded by a group of thugs who asked if they had a pass.It turned out that the so-called travel permits signed by the rioters themselves cost ten yuan each.The driver said he didn't buy it, but immediately handed over ten yuan to the group, expressing his willingness to buy it.The mob thought that he was deliberately resisting, so they stepped forward and overturned the car, poured gasoline on it, and set it on fire.Because the vehicle overturned, the safety switch on the side facing the sky was closed again, and the people inside could not climb out. The vice-consul Ester shouted in English: I am not British, we are Swiss diplomats!But no one paid any attention to him, and let him be wrapped in the burning fire.Afterwards, the fire engine arrived, put out the fire, and sent the three people to the hospital. The driver was dead, Mrs. Ester died three days later, and Mr. Ester was severely burned and disabled... The most intense scene took place at the Tsuen Wan Medical Center of the Hong Kong-Kowloon Federation of Trade Unions.About 500 mobs surrounded the camp, saying that the people inside were all leftists, and they wanted to show them to the public.The thugs held iron rods, hugged tree stumps, kept banging on the gate, and threw Molotov cocktails on the roof.The staff in the institute were guarded by troops and calmly responded to the battle, so that the mobs failed to attack many times.At midnight, the thugs finally rushed to the roof, smashed the roof with heavy objects, entered the house, and opened the door.As a result, all the women in the institute were gang-raped, and 11 male members were killed or injured. The riot bait attracted the Chinese government's close attention. Premier Zhou Enlai urgently met with Ou Nianru, the British Chargé d'Affaires in Beijing at the time. Premier Zhou said: This is a premeditated political stabbing.Chinese residents in Kowloon and the New Territories were slaughtered and plundered by Kuomintang spies, and their lives and property suffered serious losses and heavy casualties.The Chinese government expressed great indignation and concern over this.The British authorities in Hong Kong failed to take effective measures to accommodate the Kuomintang secret agents and triad forces, and failed to stop this organized and planned riot in time, which led to a tragedy. The Chinese government expresses serious protest against this. Due to the serious protests of the Chinese government, the British Hong Kong authorities were under great pressure.The governor of Hong Kong, Gregory Gregory, was forced to make a decision to mobilize the entire Hong Kong police force and troops stationed in Hong Kong to impose martial law on the entire Hong Kong region.From the evening of the 13th to the 16th, the Hong Kong police arrested more than 5,300 triad figures and rioters. So far, the Hong Kong-Kowloon riots that shocked the world were suppressed by the British Hong Kong authorities.This shows how rampant and terrifying the underworld in Hong Kong is.Although the British Hong Kong authorities have thought of many ways, they have never cured the black problem.On the contrary, the power of the underworld is growing. In view of the dissuasion of her family, Youde and others, Mrs. Thatcher canceled her plan to visit Hong Kong people. What made Mrs. Thatcher really cancel the plan was the demonstrations of Hong Kong citizens and students. On September 27, Mrs Thatcher made a speech in Hong Kong, still sticking to her point of view.Even in front of hundreds of reporters, facing the whole world, she doesn't care. Mrs Thatcher's attitude angered Hong Kong citizens and university students.On this day, students from the Chinese University of Hong Kong and the Polytechnic came to demonstrate outside the Chief Secretary's Office. They held up banners and slogans against unequal treaties, and the treaty of aggression against China should not be affirmed, demanding dialogue with Mrs. Thatcher and protesting against her Said proposal to amend the treaty. People from all walks of life in Hong Kong reacted quickly to Mrs. Thatcher's remarks, and their interviews were published in the newspapers. They said that the theory of the effectiveness of the three treaties was imperialist aggression. Mrs. Thatcher has no right to represent the people of Hong Kong under the pretext that she is responsible for trying to rule Hong Kong forever.Mrs. Thatcher left Hong Kong disheartened amidst the sound of crusade.Only then did she know the true meaning of blood is thicker than water.Although Hong Kong has been separated from the country for a hundred years, the people of Hong Kong have not forgotten that they are Chinese. And she was just an outsider.A foreign old lady who is gesticulating.In this way, Mrs. Thatcher ended her trip to China and Hong Kong in a gray mood and returned to London.
