POD:
China doesn't take any reforms in the 90's and remains hardcore communist. As a result , she doesn't make that promise to Hong Kong , as in OTL ( one country , two regimes )
A refferendum is held in Hong Kong. The population votes overwhelmingly for remaining British.

Could this have happened?
If Hong Kong votes to remain British , would the British government still give back Hong Kong to China?
If the British decide to keep Hong Kong , will the Chinese start a war against them?
What do you think it would have happened if the UK and China had gone to war over Hong Kong?

Feel free to change the POD if you find it unlikely , I'm more interested to find out what would have happened if Hong kong had decided not to become a part of China.
