Rebirth of the Great Entertainment Empire - v2 Chapter 835
…
It has been more than two years since Xu Cun forced Hong Kong Governor Wei Yixin to crack down on gangsters last time.
In the past two years, due to the inaction of the British Hong Kong government, the public security situation in Hong Kong has begun to deteriorate again. Several violent public security cases this year are the best proof of this. There will be one or two violent incidents every month, and grenades are often used, so don’t be too brutal.
Plus, Tuen Mun Semo joined in the fun.
Hong Kong citizens support the restoration of the death penalty – not long ago, the Social Sciences Research Center of the University of Hong Kong released a survey report, 84% of Hong Kong citizens supported the restoration of the death penalty.
Originally, Xu Cun was also watching this matter—after all, Bai Teng, who should be called Patten now, has just taken office.
But after Zhong Lidi was attacked by Tuen Mun Semo, Xu Cun decided not to wait for Patten – Xu Cun decided to force Patten to quickly stabilize the security of Xiangjiang!
After communicating with the central government through Lu Ping, Phoenix TV, TVB, DreamWorks Newspaper Group, including Ming Pao, began to spread the word:
“The group of demons dances wildly – what happened to Xiangjiang?”
“Shoot, shoot, shoot, grenade, grenade, grenade, strong explosion, strong explosion, slaughter, why is the security environment in Xiangjiang so bad?”
“Since the Hong Kong under British rule cannot give the people of Hong Kong a stable living environment, why not let the mainland maintain the security of Hong Kong. The mainland with vast land has not had gun battles, grenade attacks again and again, and not once again. Another serial murder case!”
“…”
Xu Cun didn’t make a move. The British side only knew that Xu Cun was powerful, but they didn’t know how powerful Xu Cun was.
After Xu Cun really made his move, Ying just knew that the trouble was big!
The only two free-to-air TV stations in Hong Kong are Phoenix TV and TVB. Although the Chinese TV station headed by Li Jiacheng and the cable TV station of the Wharf Group have also started broadcasting in the past two years, and the momentum is not small, the Chinese TV station and the cable TV station of the satellite TV have also started broadcasting in succession. They are all paid TV stations, and their background is too weak. How can they compare with Phoenix TV and TVB? More importantly, Li Jiacheng, Wu Guangzheng and others behind Satellite TV’s Chinese and cable TV stations didn’t want to offend Xu Cun, so they were still watching and letting Phoenix and TVB report.
Newspapers.
Heung Kong’s biggest-selling newspapers are Ming Pao, Oriental Daily, Sing Tao Daily, and Sing Pao.
At present, in addition to the “Oriental Daily”, the other three major newspapers have been controlled by Xu Cun.
And Ma Chengkun of “Oriental Daily”, including other Ma family members, are pure businessmen. They know how to seek good luck and avoid evil. Moreover, Ma family members know that Xu Cun owes them a favor, as long as they don’t oppose Xu Cun. , Xu Cun will not start with their Ma family’s “Oriental Daily”, so the Ma family will not easily and dare not offend Xu Cun.
Most of the other newspapers did not dare to offend the powerful Xu Cun. Moreover, the stories reported by the DreamWorks Newspapers were also true, and there was no need for these newspapers to contradict the DreamWorks Newspapers.
Of course, it doesn’t mean that there are no newspapers that contradict Xu Cun, “Sun Daily” and “Apple Daily” jumped out and said something like, “The reason why the security of Xiangjiang has deteriorated is because the return of Xiangjiang has caused some people’s complaints. Panic.”, “Xiangjiang is a place of freedom, it should be free of speech, not someone’s word.” And so on…
However–
“Apple Daily” only helped for one day, then inexplicably backed down, leaving only “Sun Daily”, a newspaper representing the British side, which has a very small audience in Hong Kong to fight alone.
How could a small “Sun Daily” be able to compete with the mighty DreamWorks Newspaper Group? Under the overwhelming propaganda of DreamWorks Newspaper Group, the voice of “Sun Daily” was easily covered up – it seems that the whole of Hong Kong is condemning the British side and the inaction of the British Hong Kong government. .
This situation is very unfavorable to the British side, especially to the Governor Patten who has just taken office. It is a bit of a disgrace. If this situation is allowed to develop, Patten will definitely become the shortest-term Hong Kong Governor in history. !
Patten didn’t want to be a joke, so Patten came to Shek O overnight to visit Xu Cun.
pity–
At this time, Xu Cun was not in Shek Ao at all, not even in Xiangjiang.
Chris Patten is an experienced politician, and he understands when he thinks about it. Xu Cun never thought about talking to him at all.
Can’t talk to Xu Cun, is this matter resolved?
Of course not, Patten is okay, it should be said that he can only talk to the mainland directly.
To be honest, this is something that Patten is extremely unwilling to do, because in his opinion, the mainland is his enemy, an enemy that he ignores!
But–
Now, Xu Cun has pushed Patten to the point where he has to take the initiative to talk to the mainland.
After weighing it for a long time, Patten took the initiative to call Lu Ping.
Afterwards, the Chinese and British negotiated privately for thirteen days.
During these thirteen days, the voice of the British side’s inaction in Xiangjiang became louder and louder. What I didn’t think about was that a gold shop in Central was robbed again during these thirteen days and was taken away. Gold ornaments worth more than seven million Hong Kong dollars, and the gangsters and the police also started a shootout. When the gangsters were about to evacuate, they also threw several grenades in order to facilitate the evacuation, resulting in serious consequences of six deaths and dozens of injuries.
Thirteen days later, China and the UK reached the following three consensuses:
1. The number of directly elected seats shall be fifteen.
Second, the Chinese side will send another battalion of the People’s Liberation Army to Xiangjiang to deter Xiao Xiao.
3. The Royal Police of the United Kingdom once again carried out a comprehensive crackdown.
4. Xiangjiang resumes the death penalty.
It can be said that this secret talk is definitely the biggest victory China has achieved on the Hong Kong issue in recent years, and it can even be said that the world has been established in one fell swoop!
After that, the voice of accusing the British side of inaction in Xiangjiang gradually became smaller.
Afterwards ~www.mtlnovel.com~ With the help of Chinese Satellite TV, Cable TV, Sun Daily, and Apple Daily, people in Hong Kong began to pay attention to this crackdown, which was personally followed by Governor Patten.
What attracted the attention of people in Hong Kong more than this crackdown was that Hong Kong resumed the death penalty.
Many people, especially elites, believe that this is a sign of the backwardness of the social system.
Others believe that the laws of Hong Kong are synchronizing with those of the mainland, which is a sign of the imminent return of Hong Kong.
Of course, more people, that is, ordinary citizens of Hong Kong who have been repeatedly persecuted recently, mostly support this law—they don’t want to live in a society that doesn’t even have basic security guarantees.
Due to the large number of people who paid attention and the many opinions, the resumption of the death penalty in Xiangjiang quickly overshadowed other matters, even the biggest crackdown in the history of Xiangjiang. It is even more submerged under it, and only those who have really experienced Xu Cun’s greatness can deeply engrave the whole story of Xu Cun in their hearts!
