898 [Conference Ceremony] Next
Like many rank awarding ceremonies, in fact, in addition to Song Zhichao being awarded the rank of Justice of the Peace this time, there are also some government officials of the Hong Kong and British governments, as well as some civil representatives, who were praised by the government at the end of the year.
To put it bluntly, it means that a company will hold a year-end summary at the end of the year, and at the same time elect some advanced individuals and model workers.
It’s just that Song Zhichao, the “Justice of Peace”, is the finale at home, and the rest are all foils.
Although it is a foil, the whole ceremony is also very solemn and dignified.
First, after the salute, the British flag bearer held a flag-raising ceremony. The guard of honor came out, carrying a gun, and followed the slogan "left left, left left left" and walked the unique kicking and arm swinging steps of the British Empire. A team of eighteen people came to the flagpole in an orderly manner, stepped on the spot, stamped their feet, and stopped.
Immediately, the national anthem of the British Empire, "God Bless the Queen", was played on the spot. The flag bearer skillfully hung the rice-shaped flag symbolizing the British Empire's sunrise on the flagpole and raised it with the national anthem.
At this time, everyone in the field stood up and stood up. Hong Kong Governor Peng Dingkang, a group of Hong Kong British government officials, even raised their chests and gazes, looked up and saluted at the rice flag.
As colonial tycoons, Li Chaoren, Lin tycoon, He Gambler and others also stood respectfully, looking at the Rice Flag.
Song Zhichao was not interested in the UK at all, but this was their home court after all. He stood up during his polite period. He just looked at the rice-shaped flag and thought in his heart that this annoying rice-shaped flag would be replaced in another year.
For Song Zhichao, the picture of Hong Kong returning in the 1997th anniversary of his previous life, and China and Britain exchanged flags, one up and one down. The so-called empire that the sun never set really declined at that moment.
...
After the flag-raising ceremony was completed, according to convention, Hong Kong Governor Peng Dingkang was about to speak on stage.
As the last Hong Kong Governor, Lao Peng is actually quite miserable. He is about to hand over power in another year, and the hearts of the Hong Kong and British governments are unstable.
Many people start to be perfunctory when doing things. Even if the Governor of Hong Kong is instructed, they will delay if they can, and if they can, they will depend on it. In a word, people will be dispersed and the team will be difficult to lead.
For the aspiring Lao Peng, at first he despised those guys who worked hard to make money and run away at the last minute in Hong Kong.
Whether it is friends, colleagues, or subordinates, Peng Dingkang despises them. However, as time goes by, he despises and Lao Peng's self-feeling has also deteriorated.
Even if Hong Kong is about to hand over to mainland China, why not give up and make a fortune yourself, and then throw a mess to the other party?
Lao Peng thinks this idea is very feasible.
Making money by yourself is second, and the most important thing is to throw the mess to those Chinese. This is the key - I love the British Empire, and doing so is considered to be dedicating to the country. Lao Peng muttered to himself while counting the money he had recovered.
At this moment, on the ceremony stage, Lao Peng took the speech prepared by the female secretary for himself and began to give a speech with emotion.
First, looking back at the past, especially in the years when the British Empire colonized Hong Kong for so many years, how diligent the British worked in Hong Kong, building a dirty and messy little land into an oriental pearl in the Far East.
Immediately afterwards, Peng Dingkang reviewed the series of changes that took place in Hong Kong after he took over as the governor of Hong Kong.
In his own words: "Although he did not have much achievements, he also worked diligently and made due contributions to Hong Kong's financial and economic development."
Only people like Lao Peng can do such shameless things that can gild themselves on their faces.
However, the audience supported the audience, and immediately there was applause, and it was very enthusiastic.
This made Lao Peng, who was already a little blushing, feel very pleased, as if he had really made some amazing contributions to Hong Kong, rather than turning a pearl into economic stagnation, the rule of law, and waiting for the Chinese to clean up the mess.
After talking about some of his achievements in office, Lao Peng began to look forward to the future according to common practice. Of course, in his words, the future of Hong Kong is also beautiful, and he hopes that the mainland can adhere to the "one country, two systems" and make Hong Kong a better tomorrow!
After saying this, Lao Peng got to the point of the matter very bureaucratically, saying who to commend and who to reward today, and asking everyone to work together for the prosperity and stability of Hong Kong.
After finally finishing the talk, I began to commend and award the title according to the order of the title ceremony.
...
The first person to appear was the director of the Hong Kong government’s “Compulsory Services Department” - a rosacea foreigner with a big belly. No matter how he looks, he looks like an alcoholic, not a good person who teaches and educates people.
But Peng Dingkang's evaluation of him was: "I have been in the Correctional Service Department for many years and have achieved remarkable achievements, awakening countless lost lambs... I devote myself to the Correctional Service Department's work of persuading good deeds, and have no distinction... Everyone's role model!"
Under Lao Peng's praise, the director even raised his chest and raised his belly, and his mouth was almost cracked to his ears.
Lao Peng presented him with a commendation certificate, with four big words "Teaching but no distinction" written in Chinese and English.
Applause starts, and the award ceremony is over.
The one who went on stage was a Chinese, and she was a woman, at her age of 33 or 4, wearing an old-fashioned gray women's career suit, her hair was tied behind her head, her temples were a little gray, and she looked a little exhausted no matter how she looked.
Lao Peng introduced this woman: "Ms. Chen Li Fangcui has always been struggling on the front line of Hong Kong's transportation department... For the smooth operation of Hong Kong's transportation, I work hard day and night... On behalf of the British Hong Kong government, I hereby commend her professional behavior..."
Lao Peng presented a big red certificate beast with the words "Royal Ministry of Transportation of Hong Kong" to Ms. Chen Li Fangcui.
Applause came from the audience again, compared to the rosacea who had a big belly and a rosacea before, which received much louder applause.
Everyone has a scale in their hearts.
The rosacea had a lot of dark history and stains when he worked in the Correctional Services Department. The reason why he was awarded this time was entirely because of his "ghost" status.
As a colony, people in Hong Kong are divided into hierarchies.
Chinese among Hong Kong people have always been second-class citizens to the British Empire.
Only those purely-blooded ghosts are first-class citizens who can enjoy privileges in Hong Kong.
Of course, there are also some who are Hong Kong people who have obtained British Empire passports. They are commonly known as "Dual Panzi" and are stuck in the middle, neither up nor down.
For the British Empire, for the last Governor Peng Dingkang, the rosaceae was a first-class citizen. Therefore, no matter how many stains or how dark the dark history was, the crow fell on the pig, and he, Old Peng, could turn a blind eye to the other party, and shamelessly awarded certificates to the other party in front of so many people.
As for Ms. Chen Li Fangcui, she is really diligent in the transportation department. Everyone can see her contributions. It can be said that she deserves the reward this time.
...
After more than half of the award ceremony, the "Judge of the Peace" ceremony, which was the finale, is about to begin.
On the seat, when he learned that his son was about to go on stage to receive the title, his father Song Haiming and his mother Wang Jinfeng suddenly became excited.
You know, when this old couple was in their hometown in mainland China, they were always honest and honest. No one in the family had ever won awards or received commendations.
In my impression, the most lively time in the Song family was that during the Chinese New Year, Song Haiming won the third place in the "Technical Training" organized by the freezing factory - the factory rewarded half a pig's head.
Since then, no one in the Song family has ever won a prize.
At this moment, they were excited and nervous - in fact, they didn't understand why their son was just nominated as "Security Captain" (Judge of the Peace), so he was so excited.
Looking at the nervous old couple of Song Haiming, Hong Kong Governor Peng Dingkang took a look at Kang Yongren, who was sitting down from the very remote position under the stage.
Kang Yongren nodded at him.
Peng Dingkang was calculating in his heart, with a strange look on his face, and his eyes turned to everyone again, and he smiled at the microphone in front of him, saying, "Dear ladies and gentlemen! Then the most exciting part below is here - as we all know, what we will award next is the last title of Justice of the Peace in Hong Kong's history. So who will this rare glory fall into?"
His eyes glanced at him for a week and finally fell on Song Zhichao.
Chapter completed!
