"Hey, what's wrong with you? So many relatives and friends are here, and you only get these few seats?" Feng Xingtai criticized unhappily. "What's wrong with you?
"Dad, how many seats are there in this conference hall? There are so many reporters from all over the world. There are also many leaders and representatives from other countries. There should be more representatives from the UK and Hong Kong. These few seats are the most seats we have. Even the US representative does not have so many seats! "
This time, there were more than 8,000 reporters. It was almost the same as the Olympic Games. Most of the seats had been removed, and Feng Yu had done his best to get these few seats. These few young people could only stand at the aisle.
When Feng Xingtai heard that even the US representative does not have so many seats, he was satisfied. Furthermore, it was fine for those relatives and friends to watch from the outside. Most of the people were watching from the outside. My son is the best. So many people can't even enter this conference hall. Not only I can enter, but I also have a seat.
Feng Yu had arranged for some people to monitor the international financial market. These people were the brokers he brought back from New York. They were not very concerned about this event. They were more concerned about how much money they could get from this event.
This time, Feng Yu will not be using his own money, and there must be no accidents!
… …
June 30th, 23: 42 am. The handover ceremony officially started!
At 23: 56 am, the two national flag bearers walked onto the stage. All the guests stood up and looked at the flagpoles on both sides of the stage.
At 59 am, the UK and Hong Kong flags were lowered. Many people were excited when they saw the US flags descending. Some British people even shed tears. They had lost a lot of money every year!
At midnight on July 1st, Hua Xia's national anthem was played. All the Chinese people sang it together. Even the leaders of the country joined in. Their voices resounded in the hall. Along with the national anthem, Hua Xia's national flag and Hong Kong's national flag were raised.
Feng Yu and the rest looked at the rising national flag and sang the national anthem loudly. Feng Yu could even hear his grandfather singing along. His voice was a little hoarse and out of tune, but it was the most beautiful voice at the moment.
When the national anthem stopped, the audience went wild. Feng Yu looked at his parents clapping madly, and his hands did not stop.
Even though the map was still far from being complete, it was still the first step to victory. Feng Yu thought that since he had experienced life and death before, he wouldn't be too emotional. But unexpectedly, at this moment, his eyes were also filled with tears.
Li Na's tears rolled down her cheeks. This kind of patriotism had been deeply ingrained in every Chinese and had even become a kind of faith.
Wen Dongjun, who was standing at the side, could not control his emotions. Zhang Han also had tears in her eyes. She held a handkerchief in her hand and kept wiping Wen Dongjun's tears.
Feng Yu's grandfather was also crying. He did not expect that he would be able to live to this day and witness the handover ceremony personally. This was such an honor!
The cameras of the various countries' media were flashing non-stop. Feng Yu passed his handkerchief to his grandfather. His grandfather's handkerchief was wet.
Feng Yu noticed many Hong Kongers were crying. Blood is thicker than water, and they had never forgotten that Hong Kong is part of China.
Today, Hong Kong had returned to their motherland. How could they not be excited? If there were not so many foreign media present, they would be cheering crazily.
Director Jiang walked to the front of the stage. He was very excited. He represented Hua Xia to announce the establishment of Hua Xia's Hong Kong Special Administrative Region!
He said this was the golden age of the Chinese, and it was a victory for world peace and justice. This day would forever be remembered as a day that would go down in history!
Of course, in his speech, he had to mention the Chief Architect. He was not only the Chief Architect's one country, two systems idea, but also the Chief Architect's diplomatic negotiations to solve the Hong Kong issue!
At this moment, the Chief Architect was sitting in front of the TV, watching the live broadcast.
At the same time, all the Chinese in front of the TV were cheering excitedly. Many of them had tears rolling down their cheeks.
The celebration was even more intense than the Lunar New Year. Regardless of the elderly or children, everyone was watching the live broadcast in front of the TV.
There was no Zhao Benshan's skit or their favorite pop stars. But this live broadcast had achieved the highest viewership in history. It was enough to apply for the Guinness World Records!
Fireworks were set off at the seaside of Hong Kong, facing Shenzhen and Guangzhou. At the same time, fireworks were set off all over the country. The fireworks lit up the night sky.
Some children followed the adults to the streets. Regardless of whether they knew each other, they greeted each other happily and even chatted with each other. In just a few sentences, they will talk about Hong Kong's return to China.
Even those who had conflicts with each other in the past will not quarrel when they meet. They will even apologize to each other. The atmosphere was harmonious.
At Bing City Machinery Company, Wind & Rain Electronics, Aiwa Electronics, etc., many workers who were staying in the dormitories were watching the live broadcast in the factory's hall.
When the National Anthem was played, they sang louder and louder, which was much more enthusiastic than any singing competition.
Li Mingde stood in front of the podium and announced: "After the company's discussion, we have decided to give every worker an extra 500 RMB Tai Hua Supermarket shopping card."
Now, Tai Hua Supermarket had set up branches in many cities. Some cities do not have hypermarkets and only have one supermarket. Many people were envious of these supermarkets.
The workers had just received last month's bonus, and they did not expect to receive another bonus. Everyone was overjoyed. This was double happiness.
All the companies under Feng Yu's name, including Wahaha and Jianlibao, had also increased the bonus. None of the managers of those companies objected.
Some overseas Chinese were also watching the live broadcast on TV. Many of them were affected by the live broadcast and decided to return to China to watch the live broadcast.
The motherland was strong, and they, who had left their hometown, were also homesick. They missed the mountains and rivers of their hometown, the customs of their hometown, and even the wild vegetables and rice of their hometown. They missed it very much.
The significance of Hong Kong's return was shown at this moment. Not only was the country's territory intact, but it was also a way for them to return home.
That night, many people couldn't sleep. The lights in many places were switched on. This night was destined to be a sleepless one.
