The stars in the night sky of Hong Kong were twinkling, as if they were telling endless stories.
Gorgeous skyscrapers were everywhere.
Among them were the skyscrapers on the shores of Victoria Harbor. They stood like giants on the beach, competing with the mountains on the other side.
Modern buildings were stacked on top of each other. Whether it was the reinforced concrete structure or the glass curtain wall, they all exuded a unique charm in the night.
Countless neon lights interweaved into a colorful picture. From afar, it looked like a bright belt of light surrounding Hong Kong.
The neon signs on the streets and alleys alternated between light and dark, shining brightly.
The shop windows on the street were lit up with warm yellow lights, displaying the goods in an extremely attractive manner. Near the dock, the neon lights on the cruise ship were reflected on the sea. The ripples were like a dream.
However, at this moment, the bustling street was extremely quiet.
Even the various underworld groups and gangsters in Hong Kong didn't dare to come out and cause trouble. They were all locked up at home because of the strict control implemented in Hong Kong.
Most of the Hong Kong residents stayed at home to watch the ceremony.
The trees on both sides of the street swayed in the night wind, forming a unique scenery.
Occasionally, cars would appear on the streets, shuttling through the empty streets like ghosts.
The car's taillights and reflections drew a string of red light tracks on the wet ground, as if they had pierced through the veil of tranquility in this quiet night.
The night view of Hong Kong at this moment was contradictory and charming. It had the prosperity and charm of a modern city, but it also had the solemnity and tranquility of the night before.
At this moment, the city seemed to be waiting for a rebirth and was about to enter a new chapter in history.
……
Huo Qixuan, Zhu Ling, and the rest of the Huo family were all gathered in the large living room. The television was broadcasting the handover ceremony of the military.
Huo Qixuan smiled as he watched the scene of the Japanese army taking over Hong Kong from the British.
The arrival of the JF fleet meant that Hong Kong would no longer be a colony, but a real Chinese territory. The people of Hong Kong would no longer be colonized.
Of course, it was just that people were no longer colonized, so their mentality was not necessarily the same.
This needed time to wash away!
After the TV finished showing the JF Army's arrival in Hong Kong, the camera began to switch.
The camera moved to a square in the heart of Hong Kong.
At this moment, the people in the square were gathered together, waiting for the historic moment.
The camera moved to a wide square in the heart of Hong Kong.
This was the central square of the return ceremony.
At this moment, people from all walks of life, old and young, gathered side by side in the square, waiting for this historic moment with anticipation.
In their eyes, there was both a longing for the future and an unwavering determination for their country.
Colorful flags and flower baskets hung in the sky above the square.
The entire square was bathed in the joy of returning.
The gorgeous neon lights shone on the square like a colorful rainbow. In addition, giant LED screens and banners were hung on the surrounding buildings, announcing the return of Hong Kong to the world.
At this solemn moment, the Union Flag was slowly lowered, symbolizing the end of colonial rule.
Immediately after, the red flag and the regional flag were slowly raised under the watchful eyes of everyone.
At the same time, the loud and clear National Anthem was played in the entire square. It was as shocking as a bell. The red flag fluttered in the sky above Hong Kong, like a fiery red flame that lit up the entire sky, indicating the arrival of a new era.
It was a sacred and solemn moment, and the people in the square were extremely excited.
They waved the small red flags in their hands and shouted slogans to cheer for this great country.
Many people were so excited that tears welled up in their eyes.
They knew that the arrival of this day meant that Hong Kong had finally returned to the embrace of the motherland. In the national anthems, they witnessed the city turn a new page and embark on a glorious road.
At this moment, the night sky of Hong Kong was dyed with colorful colors by the fireworks of the celebration. Dazzling fireworks bloomed in the night sky like a splendid feast.
People celebrated this historic moment together.
I wish Hong Kong a better future.
……
Seeing the red flag fluttering in the sky, everyone in the hall of the Hunts cheered enthusiastically. Everyone had a fervent smile on their faces.
However, in stark contrast to the hustle and bustle of the Huo family, the living rooms of the wealthy families in Hong Kong were deserted.
Even when they saw the red flag fluttering, they did not show much joy.
The main reason was that this group of rich people was full of uncertainty about the future of Hong Kong.
They weren't sure what kind of policies the mainland would try out and whether it would impact their current interests.
There were countless similar thoughts.
In the eyes of these rich people, wealth was more important than the so-called feelings of home and country.
Not everyone was Huo Yingdong.
Most of them still hoped that Hong Kong could maintain its status quo and not have any major changes. Some of them were even considering migrating.
