Chapter 127 Chapter 126 Chen Yi's value
Chen Yi wasn't very interested in the two sisters, Efilida and Silvia. He just got to know the two girls briefly under Li Wenhui's call.
Not too enthusiastic, nor too cold.
As we all know, the shelf life of white women is very short. Compared with yellow people, many white women often lose their overall appearance after giving birth.
This is especially reflected in Soviet Russian women.
Although the two sisters, Eferida and Silvia, are young, they are already mothers.
The two sisters are only about three or four years older than Chen Yi and Li Wenhui, but their children are already able to go out to make soy sauce.
This point was never expected by Chen Yi.
There are also reasons why the two sisters, Efelida and Sylvia, got married so early, and the biggest reason is the national policy.
After the end of World War II, European countries not only worked hard to restore economic construction, but also worked hard to restore population. The two world wars made European countries understand the importance of population.
So, in order to encourage ordinary people to have more children, European countries have promulgated many preferential policies on social welfare.
The most direct policy is to give money for having children. The more children are born, the more money the state subsidizes.
Of course, the two sisters Ephelida and Sylvia got married early, not because of state subsidies, but because of the general trend of this era, just like the low marriage and late marriage in later generations in Europe.
Facing two mothers who already have babies, any man who meets them will lose half his interest, and will not be able to arouse too much interest.
Although Chen Yi is not very interested in the two sisters Effilida and Silvia, the two sisters are full of curiosity towards Chen Yi.
"Chen Yi, can you come up and play your two piano pieces for us in a while? Now your two piano pieces have caused a great sensation in the European music circle.
I believe that you will receive many invitations in a short time. If you can participate in some international piano competitions, especially the four major international piano competitions, you will definitely become a piano master soon. "
"Piano competition?" Chen Yi murmured, then shook his head and said, "I'm not very interested in those competitions, let alone a piano master. Focus on your personal interests."
Sylvia and her sister looked at each other, and there was a hint of surprise in each other's eyes. According to Chen Yi's age, most people should think more about being famous than about getting money.
However, the two sisters still appreciate Chen Yi's frankness.
Sylvia smiled and said: "I almost forgot, you are still an inventor. I heard that your Rubik's cube toy is very popular in Xiangjiang, and there are even reports in the UK."
Chen Yi said modestly: "A gadget is not an inventor."
Chen Yi didn't dare to wear the word "inventor" on his head.
Chen Yi did not refuse the two sisters, Efilida and Silvia, who wanted him to perform on stage. Anyway, their father is the governor and the top leader of Xiangjiang.
You know, the current governor of Xiangjiang is not an ordinary person.
For this reason, it is known as the "MacLehose Era".
Now MacLehose has only been in office for two years, and there is still a long term in the future.
For Chen Yi, who has read a lot of Xiangjiang articles, this governor is no stranger. During the period of the other party's term of office, Xiangjiang's economic development was one of the most rapid stages.
During his tenure, he promoted drastic reforms, which greatly changed the social outlook of Xiangjiang.
The direction of the governor's reform involves housing, integrity, education, medical care, welfare, infrastructure, transportation, economy and society.
The more famous policies and constructions, such as the ten-year housing plan, the development of new towns, the establishment of the Independent Commission Against Corruption, the nine-year free education, the construction of underground railways, and local administrative reforms, were basically launched during his tenure.
These policies not only directly improved the living standards of the citizens, but also further established a positive image of the colonial government in the hearts of the citizens, and at the same time enhanced the sense of belonging of Xiangjiang people to Xiangjiang.
Chen Yi has a complicated attitude towards the governor.
The existence of the other party has allowed Xiangjiang's economy to develop unprecedentedly, which is naturally a good thing for Xiangjiang people.
But similarly, it also laid the root of disaster for some Xiangjiang people to miss their former British master later.
MacLehose, who was born as a diplomat, has many years of experience in Asia. He understands the thoughts of the people at the bottom better than those colonial officials, and understands the aspirations of ordinary people at the bottom.
People like this are much more powerful than those **** stirrers.
Chen Yi has to admit that it is precisely because of the existence of MacLehose that Hong Kong's economy has been able to transform from being dominated by light industries to focusing on electronics, finance and commerce, and has become one of the "Four Asian Tigers". , Laying an important cornerstone for the prosperity and stability of Hong Kong and becoming an international financial center in Asia in the future.
Only when Xiangjiang becomes the financial center of Asia, can Chen Yi, like everyone else, enjoy the dividends of Xiangjiang's economic boom.
So, he can't afford to mess with the governor.
Similarly, for the other party's daughter, he had to give face.
When Chen Yi stepped onto the stage, all eyes were on him.
Governor MacLehose, who was always paying attention to his two daughters, walked up to Li Xiaohe, and said with a smile: "Mr. Li, the little guy up there has made a lot of noise recently, even my two babies who are far away in the UK My daughter has heard of his name."
As he spoke, MacLehose took a sip of the red wine that had been shaken in the glass for a long time, and continued: "I heard that he will soon become the son-in-law of your Li family. Is there such a thing?"
Li Xiaohe did not answer MacLehose's words, but instead asked, "What do you think of that little fellow, Mr. Governor?"
MacLehose said with a tone of admiration, "He's a nice young man. He's also a genius. According to my daughter, his talent in music has been recognized by many piano masters in Europe.
In addition, the toy company he owns is also developing very rapidly. The Rubik's Cube toy and the restoration formula he invented have even attracted the attention of many mathematicians in Europe. "
"I believe that he will become the youngest billionaire in Xiangjiang in the near future. If my two daughters are not married, I would want such a young man to be my son-in-law."
