Hong Kong Island Old Events

Chapter 131 The Money Empire and the Next Step of Power

Not only does He Dingxian not plan to make a movie within a year, but he may not start working on it in two or three years.

First of all, it takes time to enclose territory. Secondly, the Hong Kong film market has not yet begun to develop, and Nanyang distribution is limited by channels...

Finally, the financial chain of banks is growing. As long as power is not lost, the bubble will not be burst in a short time, and the money invested does not need to be repaid at all.

He and Shaw each have their own advantages. There is no need to touch the other's strengths when their own advantages are not developed to the limit.

At the end of the year, the Anti-Corruption Office of the Police Force was officially established. As the first anti-corruption department of the Hong Kong Island Police Force, it really shocked all the detectives in Hong Kong.

During this time, the detectives often gathered together, drank tea, and discussed preparations to face the "storm", so much so that the two chief detectives became busy.

But as the anti-corruption office directors of each jurisdiction took office, the storm gradually subsided, because the anti-corruption office directors are also corrupt!

"If you are greedy, then you are one of your own. What do you have to be afraid of?" At a gathering of detectives from the Kowloon District in Mong Kok, Lei Luo spread his right hand, holding a cigarette between his fingertips, and shouted: "It's just an extra share." It’s just a portion.”

He Dingxian smoked a cigarette and laughed: "The police force is a black gold empire. No one is immune when entering this empire! If anything, we are all honest and law-abiding police officers."

"That's right..." Inspector Choi Siu-kwong of Sham Shui Po sighed and said: "Look at Arlo, he was a silly boy who didn't take a dime back then, and was nicknamed Luo Kid. Look at Ah Yin, he fights tough gangsters, sets rules, and is able to fight. You have a lot of brains, and you earn more than the regular fee every month, so why would Dian Jie be interested in a little bit of money?"

"Let's talk about me again. I'm not bragging. When I applied for the police academy, I just wanted to contribute to the Chinese people. What now? It's not us who want to be greedy at all, it's the ghost guy who forces us to be greedy!"

Chen Li put down the tea cup and said with a smile: "Brother Guang, don't put too much pressure on yourself. Just tell me, who collects protection money from classmates in the police academy?"

"I received protection money from the police academy and fucked your mother. If I hadn't been a colleague, I wouldn't have believed it if others had told me!"

The five detectives at the scene laughed together.

"Hahaha."

"I believe it, I believe it." Xiao Zike nodded repeatedly: "I paid protection fees back then!"

The second floor of the restaurant.

The detectives were sitting at a table, drinking tea and drinking water, chatting and laughing.

At the next table, lard boy, Ma Fuqiang, and Shiye Zeng, several rent collectors, were cracking melon seeds and talking about Jianghu affairs. At the next two tables, people were visiting various districts to see the boss's confidants...

On the first floor, Yiqun Hall leader Da Xia, Chao Yiyong Baifanyu, Dongyi Hall National Army, Number Gang Feilong and others were sitting together...

On the street outside the restaurant, Chinese citizens were coming and going, and the ghosts were sitting in their private cars, enjoying modern life.

On the upper, middle and lower floors, a huge money empire has taken shape. Every position in the empire has a distinct class. The behemoth that dominated the world in the 1970s, using gold as bricks and money as tiles, is rising from level to level over time. Build up.

At the moment when the new order of the world is established, the money empire has already emerged in the darkness. The most glorious period for Inspector Hua and the darkest period for the police force is about to begin!

At Mong Kok Police Station, Ge Bai was wearing a green uniform with three stars on his shoulders. He looked at the brand new sign at the door of the office with satisfaction in his eyes.

Two days later, He Dingxian was wearing a white sweatshirt with a white shirt outside, loose and unbuttoned, standing on one foot at the Anti-Corruption Office.

"Snapped!"

The tea table in the Chief Inspector's office.

"Azai."

he said aloud.

Lardboy nodded, placed a bag of Hong Kong dollars on the table, and said loudly: "Sir, this month's fee."

Ge Bai just stood up and walked around the office. Seeing He Dingxian's carefree look, he was about to give a warning, but when he saw a whole bag of Hong Kong dollars, he was immediately knocked unconscious.

"So many?" He stepped forward and opened the bag. There were at least thirty volumes inside, which was more than thirty thousand Hong Kong dollars.

"Snapped!"

He Dingxian raised one leg again, clamped his legs on the desk, leaned back on the chair, took out a cigarette from the cigarette case and tossed it gently, held the cigarette holder in his mouth, struck a match, lit it and took a deep breath: "Whew …”

"In the first month, the detectives from each district discussed giving gifts to the officers to celebrate their promotions and fortunes. No matter how good our relationship is with Sir Ge, we still have to give gifts. Otherwise, if we hear from others, , Sir Ge, don’t forget to hate me.” He blew out the smoke and said.

Ge Bai suddenly laughed: "Detective He is joking, what is my relationship with you?"

"There is no need to talk about this kind of false etiquette."

He closed the money bag and turned around to put it in the cabinet.

"Detective He, what kind of tea would you like to drink?" Ge Bai walked to the water dispenser, looking more like a subordinate than a superior.

There was nothing he could do. He still owed Oriental Bank 100,000 yuan. He had to work for Boss He for at least a few months, so how could he afford it?

"Jupu."

He Dingxian said.

Ge Bai rummaged in the cabinet for a while, opened a few boxes of English black tea, and then found a box of Jupu at the bottom of the cabinet. After a while, he handed over the brewed tea: "Inspector He, have some tea."

"Thank you." He Dingxian flicked the cigarette ashes with his fingers, sat up on the sofa, took the tea and took a sip: "Not bad!"

"hehe."

Ge Bai chuckled.

He Dingxian said: "First of all, I'm here to congratulate you, sir, for getting your wish, being promoted to a higher rank, and getting the position of head of the new department. The sign at the door looks like a money-gathering sign. Secondly, I'd like to thank you, sir, for helping me open up the door and win the prize." The job of detective in Tsim Sha Tsui East District is very good.”

"My master is also very grateful to you."

Ge Bai secretly cursed: "If you are grateful, just wipe it out for me. It's a lot of nonsense, but it's not true."

He said on his face: "We should help each other."

"Chief Ge should have a lot of connections in the police force. There is something I would like to take the liberty of asking." He Dingxian looked directly at him and got to the point.

Ge Bai was stunned and said: "What's the matter?"

Ho Dingxian asked: "What do senior police officers think of high-risk crimes on Hong Kong Island? For example, robberies, kidnappings, serial murders, etc. are common..."

Ge Bai's face changed slightly: "You have a good vision. In recent years, the top brass of the police force have been under pressure from the Governor and increasingly do not want to see related cases happen. Otherwise, they will not award you a medal of bravery."

"Ordinary extortion, corruption and bribery, and even triad crimes and murders are all suppressed by associations and the police force has smoothed the detection rate. On the surface, the momentum is acceptable, but only in robbery and kidnapping cases, the perpetrators are all the same. The bosses and businessmen who the society dare not touch have a great influence.”

"In addition, the gangsters have strong firepower and strong combat effectiveness, and it is easy to accidentally injure citizens, ranging from three to five people, to dozens of people at worst."

"The detectives in each district are not evenly matched at all. One of the Indian police and the British police is unwilling to go, and the other is afraid. In short, there is a lot of political pressure."

There is an unexplainable reason, that is, since the founding of the North, the international community has paid more and more attention to Hong Kong Island.

Since the opening of Hong Kong Island, all changes in the city's positioning have always been related to the north.

Because this is a city that relies on the mainland for survival. Even Gui Lao values ​​Hong Kong Island because he values ​​the mainland.

With both China and the West keeping an eye on a small island, the people on the island are afraid of war, the ghosts are panic-stricken, and the political pressure brought by the ancestral family will also be amplified.

Every detail becomes bigger!

This is also an important factor in promoting urban progress.

"I can tell from the awarding of medals." He Dingxian said with a smile: "They are just a group of thieves. If the Hong Kong government does not pay attention, they will not award medals to the Chinese police at all."

"This is the first medal of commendation received by the Chinese police in Hong Kong, and it means a lot. But has the Hong Kong government considered setting up a special department to handle major criminal cases?"

Ge Bai's expression suddenly changed, he looked at him with deep eyes and said, "What do you mean? Do you want to promote the establishment of a police department?"

He Dingxian laughed and said: "Haha, Sir Ge, you are worrying too much. What qualifications do I have to promote the establishment of a department? It's just that the establishment of anti-corruption made me think that maybe promotion doesn't have to wait until the boss retires. You can also start a new one and start a new career." It’s the route.”

"If the Chinese criminal team, Indian police, and British police cannot solve the problem, we can consider leaving it to new people to solve."

He said arrogantly: "I don't have any other skills. I am very good at murdering people. I am professional in dealing with those big thieves!"

"If there is such a good thing, please inform Sir Ge. I will never let Sir Ge down."

Ge Bai's expression changed again and again, he opened his mouth and just said: "Drink tea."

The decision to establish a new department requires the personal signature and approval of the Commissioner of Police. If it is a structure above the regional level, it must be reported to the Governor's Office.

However, all Chinese police officers hold positions below the supervisory level. The Commissioner of Police can make the decision alone. Only those involving the superintendent level or above must be reported.

This time the Anti-Corruption Office is a document issued by the Hong Kong Governor's Office.

"There's nothing else, I'll go first, Sir Ge, please give me a message." He Dingxian said with a confident expression before leaving.

"Detective He, walk slowly." Ge Bai did not answer the question.

But after He Dingxian left the office, Ge Bai fell into thinking for a while. Recently, the deputy director of management "McKing Tao" sent by the government was competing with the deputy director of operations "Anders" sent by the military to be the next police chief. position, the situation between the two sides is extremely tense. This is because the police chief "Qi Yingsi" is from the military and firmly supports "Anders" in taking over. However, the governor "Ge Hongliang" has been committed to promoting localization since he moved to Taipingshan. policy to reduce the influence of the garrison system within the Hong Kong police.

"Grandmaster" himself took office in 1947. He was a post-war governor. His term in history lasted for ten and a half years. He was the most prestigious Hong Kong governor before "MacLehose" and increased the proportion of Chinese in the Justice Bureau. Than, consciously improving the status of the Chinese.

This kind of policy is not to return Hong Kong Island to the Chinese, but to use "Chinese compradors" and "spiritual ghost guys" as bridges to better manage Hong Kong Island and suck the blood of Hong Kong.

In fact, this is the policy of "administering Hong Kong with Hong Kong" advocated by successive Governors of Gui Lao.

How can I give you back the territory conquered by the ghost guys and foreign guns and cannons without paying a penny?

However, the localization policy did not fail to harm the interests of some ghosts. First, British capital fled during several financial turmoils, but was taken advantage of by Chinese capital who stayed in Hong Kong. Secondly, Hong Kong's policy separated the "garrisons" from the citizens. , advocated the separation of military and territorial divisions, causing great losses to the interests of the Hong Kong garrison.

Ge Hongliang has served as Colonial Secretary in Hong Kong, Bermuda, and Jamaica. He is a very skilled politician who knows how to make trade-offs when weighing the pros and cons. His alienation from the "military system" is not an intentional target, but a contradiction arising from the line of governance. .

When the interests of the garrison suffered heavy losses, they would naturally not be easily convinced and tightly control the Hong Kong police force.

"The army is the army, the police is the police"

This is Ge Hongliang's governing ideology, and it is also the value of the Hong Kong government faction's continuous growth and development in the police force... As long as the leaders still think like this, sooner or later the Hong Kong government faction will be able to take over.

However, when it comes to power, power comes from the top down, while power comes from the bottom up.

The superiors have the power to issue orders and formulate regulations. Whether they can mobilize the forces below, and whether they can be resolutely implemented... is another question.

At present, the "Ge Hong Liang" is semi-out of control for the police force. Only things that are in the interests of the military will be thoroughly implemented. Other matters have to be discussed in exchange of interests, or superficial like the "anti-corruption room".

He has complete control over the police force. Firstly, he must let the government faction get the position of police commissioner. Secondly, he must remove the stumbling blocks that stand in the way.

As long as the military faction can win one term after another, they can not only make more money now, but also find opportunities to change the decision-making of the upper level.

For example, wait until the next governor takes office?

Maybe times have changed!

If the government wants to win, it needs time, skill, and a breakthrough...

Ge Bai vaguely seemed to have found a very important breakthrough.

Since they lack a sharp knife that can do things compared to the military faction, if they can make one, they might be able to stab their opponents to death.

Although He Dingxian could not understand the intricate and complicated relationships at the top, he was in the police force and could smell the smoke of gunfire keenly.

There is a battle to be fought.

If you have to pay for food and get an official position, you will have opportunities. He is the most daring to work hard!

As for who the governor is?

He just knows a name.

"Judging from Ge Bai's reaction, he didn't stick to his words and actually had a chance." He Dingxian was in the office, looking out the window and thinking carefully: "Although it can't be promoted in a short time, we may see opportunities in a year or two. , it’s better than waiting four or five years.”

"It would be better to wait until Chen Tong retires."

He did not deny that the idea of ​​setting up a serious crime unit and overstepping the responsibilities of the criminal unit for promotion came from a character in a certain movie.

Because, no matter how the name of the department is changed, the power is actually divided, and there are only so many in total. Once the serious crime team is established in the future, it will definitely conflict with the criminal team, and the powers must be separated.

There may be blood!

But that was an overt and covert fight in the workplace, and it was better than kicking out your senior and being known as a traitor.

It is a hundred times better than being transferred to the New Territories to guard the countryside.

These days, even if you manage to open another district and serve as the Chief Inspector of the New Territories, how much can you earn in the countryside?

If you go up, you must stay in the oil and water area!

No promotion.

How can the business be maintained?

Gao Yongsheng's position only lasts for more than three years, but he doesn't think it will be his turn. There are so many detectives in Hong Kong, and all of them have a good relationship with Brother Sheng.

He has to do everything by himself.

"However, even if Gui Lao will consider it, or even spread some rumors, if he wants to promote this position and then win this position, he will need a lot of Hong Kong dollars to support him, and he must get the nod of the Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce." He Dingxian is not just a random thought, a new The Chinese police department is established. If it has guns and power, it will definitely attract others to fight for it. If there is no support from the big boss.

After the criminal organization is established, if someone else comes to power, he will become a big joke. Not only will he be laughed at, but he will also be stepped on.

The ghost guy also has to take care of things. There are thousands of things and difficulties, but he still can't stop his progress. This is the charm of power.
