I believe that everyone is familiar with a legend in the business world like Li Ka-shing. He first founded the Cheung Kong Group in Hong Kong, where he became the richest man with his significant investment in Hong Kong. Moreover, after the return of Hong Kong, a large amount of investment was made in the mainland, which made no small contribution to the positive development of our country. At the same time, Li Ka-shing is also a highly controversial figure, he has made a lot of money in the use of real estate and other industries, and after accumulating a lot of wealth, Li Ka-shing chose to invest in overseas markets and began to prepare for "fleeing" China. Just when he was one step away from success, he chose to abandon this plan, is there any reason for this?

People familiar with Li Ka-shing know that his development in the mainland was developed by investing in real estate, and when the land price in the mainland was still very cheap, he bought a large amount of land, and he did not develop it until the land appreciated rapidly and reached a high point, and then quickly sold some land to make high profits. Relying on this trick of "empty gloves white wolf", Li Ka-shing made a fierce profit in the interior.
After making a profit, Li Ka-shing began to invest heavily in many overseas markets, of which he invested the most in the UK. Li Ka-shing has invested heavily in industries. When the investment was almost carried out, Li Ka-shing began to prepare for "running away". Since 2011, Li Ka-shing has sold a large number of real estate he owned in Hong Kong and the mainland, according to relevant data, Li Ka-shing has sold a total of 250 billion yuan of real estate projects, and continues to use this fund to buy a number of projects involving people's livelihood abroad, especially in Europe. The projects he invested in provided him with a steady stream of funds, provided him with sufficient guarantees for "running away" from China and emigrating abroad, and he was only one step away from the success of immigration, but at this most critical moment, he gave up.

Among Li Ka-shing's many foreign investments, the United Kingdom accounts for a considerable proportion. According to some statistics, Li Ka-shing has slowly controlled 25% of the UK's power supply, one-third of the natural gas supply, at least 40% of the telecommunications market, etc., through a large amount of investment, which are closely related to the daily life of British residents. In addition, Li Ka-shing also controls nearly 30% of the UK's docks, and other related bars and hotels are numerous.
In response to Li Ka-shing's "crazy consumption" in the UK, many netizens jokingly said: "Li Ka-shing bought most of the UK." Also because of Li Ka-shing's investment behavior regardless of cost, Queen Elizabeth of the United Kingdom has awarded him knighthood twice. It can be seen that with high investment, Li Ka-shing can be described as a mixed-up in foreign countries. But at this time, there was news that Li Ka-shing was ready to give up the Canadian citizenship he already had, hoping to change to Chinese nationality again. In response to the doubts of the media and the public, Li Ka-shing once said that he is China, a person with Canadian nationality, and a resident of the global village. And his son also made: "Our investment has never left the mainland." I had to answer skillfully. It seems that the signal released by Li Ka-shing to the media is that he hopes to return to the roots of the leaves in the future and return to the embrace of the mainland of the motherland. But is this really the case?
Beginning in 2016, after the UK left the European Union, the POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT IN THE UK UNDERWENWENWENLED. In Britain, some politicians began to believe that the control of public resources in the field of British people's livelihood should be firmly in the hands of their own people, not in the hands of foreigners, and began to lobby the rulers in the hope that they would make a decision as soon as possible. Once the British want to regain control of the public domain, the first foreigner to take the knife is probably Li Ka-shing.
At the same time, due to the impact of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, foreign economies have been in a weak state, especially the real economic industry invested by Li Ka-shing in the UK, which has been in a state of loss, and even the capital protection has not been achieved, and Li Ka-shing has not profited from it. After Britain suffered a loss, Li Ka-shing turned his investment attention back to China.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="7" > conclusion</h1>
Businessmen always pursue interests as the ultimate goal, often make corresponding decisions according to the direction of interests, and try to maximize their interests by all means. This was true of Li Ka-shing's previous investment in overseas markets, and now it is also true of his investment in the mainland market. Now it seems that due to the current sluggish foreign market, Li Ka-shing should have taken a fancy to China's current market environment with great potential for development, hoping to take this opportunity to make a big profit, white prostitute a wave of political dividends, and profit from it.
