Chapter 368 (1/2)
”A den of thieves.”
This is the biggest impression of the Kowloon Walled City on Hong Kong Island.
Especially the people of Kowloon.
They suffered deeply.
All applauded the demolition of the village.
Of course, they only know the demolition of the stronghold, and they can't see the specific events behind the demolition of the stronghold.
This is not only the history around us, but also seems to have nothing to do with the civilians. Just like most historical events, the citizens clearly know the occurrence of the event, but they can't understand the specific situation.
Just as the larger the news, the fewer the words, some effects will only appear slowly afterwards, just like a breeze blowing on the face, it's none of your business.
They can only choose to accept.
This is the most brilliant political technique.
The news anchor will not report on the action plan of the police force, the number of casualties, and the development of the plot of the stronghold.
They are neither qualified to check nor broadcast. They are only qualified to receive bonuses.
Moreover, the tycoons fully fulfilled the contract for the follow-up resettlement of the residents of the village, and the resettlement problem was handled well, which could not be reported at all.
The remaining small number of walled residents dissatisfied with the location and area of the property are advised by the police to settle, which has little impact. A very small number of greedy troublemakers with lion's mouth are handed over to Lu Hantao's engineering company.
In short, there are too many means to deal with these people. The underworld and the white road work together to suppress public opinion and troublemakers.
This is not the black heart of several tycoons, but the greed of human nature. Some people are always dissatisfied. On the contrary, the tycoons' resettlement plan is very conscientious, and most residents agree.
In the market, you can speak of conscience, but you can't be soft hearted. Otherwise, people are good at being bullied. What else do you talk about doing business?
This situation has occurred for decades. It was even more normal in the 1980s and the treatment was simpler.
Zhuang Shikai would never condone such malicious negotiations, let alone open his mouth, so he turned a blind eye to the Lu Group's use of some means.
It is impossible for him to harm the interests of most ordinary residents for some arrogant diehards. Considering the overall situation, this is also a trouble. If you don't step on some fleas, it will cause losses to more people.
One month later, the resettlement plan was completed, and tens of thousands of residents who moved out of the village reached the state of ”home ownership”. In order to ensure social stability, they were divided into Tuen Mun, Wong Tai Sin, Chai Wan and other areas, taking a community of 1000 people as a unit to avoid the gathering of more than 10000 people.
The resettlement plan successfully brought the residents back to society without riots or forming associations. It also has the credit of cleaning the leadership of the stronghold.
However, the imprint of Chengzhai has not completely disappeared on them. Some people on Hong Kong Island despise these Chengzhai residents, so they call all the Chengzhai residents living in such resettlement areas ”chengzhaizi”, and they also call themselves ”Chengzhai people”, which has evolved into a sense of identity similar to that of fellow villagers' associations.
At the beginning, ”chengzhaizi” was at the low end of the disdain chain of Hong Kong Island society, which was only a little higher than those in housing villages and public housing. However, with the rapid development of Hong Kong Island in the 1990s and the rapid appreciation of property, chengzhaizi even became an enviable object.
Because they at least have their own property!
Only then did they understand how conscientious ”Zhuangsheng” was! One decision-making move will change the fate of two generations.
……
Police.
General Administration.
Office of the director.
Ge Bai finished reading the report, put down the document, blushed and said with a happy face, ”Zhuang!”
”Well done this time.”
A month later.
Completion of resettlement plan.
The liquidation of the stronghold fugitives.
During the entire removal plan, the Hong Kong Island police force injured more than 60 police officers and killed four, all of them minor injuries and accidental deaths, which was basically a big victory.
As for the number of people killed and the number of criminals arrested, it is needless to mention that a series of figures are dripping with blood, showing the opposite of peaceful development.
In addition, the Hong Kong government has temporarily obtained the management and law enforcement power of the Chengzhai plot. Although the tax and territory are in the hands of the Chinese side, it has been a great achievement for GE Bai.
It is reported that several aristocratic gentlemen in parliament have expressed their appreciation for him at public cocktail parties.
It can be seen that this credit is dazzling in the ancestral family.
Gebai was very happy.
Zhuang Shikai also smiled and said, ”work for the chief! It's the responsibility of subordinates! ”
In fact, in his opinion, ”Britain” only got some face, while ”lining” was divided between him and the mainland.
After all, the management right of Chengzhai plot? After the reunification, it is not under the jurisdiction of the SAR.
He gets the benefits of economic attributes, while the mainland gets the benefits of planned development. The two sides are perfect and get rich quietly.
This is also very consistent with the national development policy of ”Gou” wave in China. It's perfect.
Ge Bai shook his head proudly and said with complacency: ”the upper Council is the aristocratic house of the ancestral family, which is full of aristocrats, royal families and relatives, and has one vote of veto over the Congressional proposal...”
”I am favored by the house of Lords. I will be elected successfully when I return home. Tut tut......”
Zhuang Shikai did not eat the ”aristocratic” set, smiled and echoed: ”then I wish the director to live in Downing Street as soon as possible.”
”It's too early. I'm not so ambitious. It's enough to be elected mayor when I return home.”
”By the way, Zhuang, are you free for two drinks in the evening?” Ge Bai waved his hand modestly, and then took the initiative to drink with Zhuang Shikai.
However, when he heard Zhuang Shikai say ”Downing Street”, the whole person had bright eyes and a bigger smile. At first glance, he was said to be in his heart.
In the face of his invitation, Zhuang Shikai shook his head and said, ”sorry, sir.”
”I have an appointment in the evening.”
”All right. ” Ge Bai's mouth curled helplessly.
The dead guy can drink wine every day. Zhuang Shikai doesn't want to magnify the pigeons for him.
“goodbye，sir。”
Zhuang Shikai finished his report, nodded gently, turned and left the office.
“goodbye。” Gebai raised his hand and answered. A man got up and went to the filing cabinet. He took out a bottle of whisky and filled it for himself.
