The British Parliament officially issued an order to appoint Sir John Maliho as the next Governor of Hong Kong, replacing Dai Lingzhi, who was extended for one year, to start a new chapter in the governance of Hong Kong.
In his previous life, Mak Laiho served as the Governor of Hong Kong for 10 and a half years and was re-elected four times. He is the longest-serving Governor in Hong Kong history.
Although MacLehose, a diplomat, lacked colonial administrative experience, he did not have colonial baggage. Instead, he was generally regarded as one of the most outstanding and beloved Hong Kong governors in history. Public opinion even called him the "Malley Era".
"Describes his days as governor of Hong Kong.
During his term of office, MacLeho promoted drastic reforms, which brought about profound changes in Hong Kong's social landscape. His reforms involved various fields such as housing, integrity, education, and medical care, including a ten-year housing construction plan, the development of new towns, and the establishment of the Independent Commission Against Corruption.
, nine-year free education, the construction of underground railways and local administrative reforms and other important policies and constructions were launched during his tenure.
These policies not only directly improved the living standards of citizens, but also further established a positive image of the colonial government in the minds of citizens, while also enhancing Hong Kong people's sense of belonging to Hong Kong.
For the people of Hong Kong at this moment, whether Bailiqu came to power or Mak Lihao succeeded to the position of Governor of Hong Kong, all are ghosts in power. The Chinese basically have no say in the Hong Kong government, let alone democracy and freedom. The only way for everyone to
Fortunately, Shi Zhijian broke through the limit and became a member of the Hong Kong Legislative Council.
His existence can be said to have given countless Chinese people a shot of blood, allowing them to at least participate in the governance of Hong Kong.
In particular, the Qing laws and regulations that Shi Zhijian promoted to abolish have gathered people's hearts and allowed everyone to see his charm as a member of the Legislative Council.
For those prominent families and dignitaries in Hong Kong, Mak Lihao's rise to the top was a bit unexpected, especially when Bailiqu was unanimously favored by everyone, but he actually lost to Mak Lihao, which was shocking.
Finally, an insider revealed that the reason why Sir Bailiqu lost to Maliho this time was because he was too old. The British side needed to find a younger agent who could manage and govern Hong Kong for a long time.
In any case, the overall situation of Hong Kong has been decided now. Mai Lihao has taken office, and hundreds of officials are here to congratulate him!
…
The interpersonal relationships in wealthy families are always wonderful.
Like Xu Sanshao, although the relationship between him and his two eldest brothers has eased after the death of the old man, and the Xu family has slowly turned from decline to revitalization, when it comes to intimacy, the relationship between Xu Sanshao and his two brothers is not as good as that of his wife.
natal family.
As we all know, Miss Kan comes from a wealthy family in Malaysia, and her father, Kan Tianming, is a famous Malaysian Chinese tycoon.
Jian Tianming has two sons and one daughter. Miss Jian is not only his sweetheart, but also the treasure of his two brothers. It can be said that she is deeply loved in the Jian family.
Regarding the Jian family, in the 1990s Hong Kong also filmed a TV series that reflected their family, called "My Lord Dynasty", but the two sons and one daughter of the Jian family were changed into three daughters, and the content was completely fabricated.
, tells the story of the intrigues of the Jane family. This drama also caused a stir in Malaysia at the time, and the Jane family almost took the Hong Kong TV station to court.
At this moment, Xu Sanshao's father-in-law, Jian Tianming, was sitting on the sofa. Opposite him was his son-in-law, and Hong Kong Legislative Council member Shi Zhijian, who had finally been invited.
"Mr. Shi is indeed young and promising. I have heard Third Young Master talk about you many times! He always praised you as a dragon or a phoenix among men. When we met today, it was indeed so!" Jian Tianming took a cigar from the table and took it skillfully.
He cuts off the head with cigar scissors, then picks up the lighter and bites the cigar to light it. This series of actions is done in one go, showing the full posture of a tycoon.
Shi Zhijian was originally very busy today, but he was pestered and dragged here by Mr. Xu, saying that there was an important person he wanted to introduce to him. After he came, he only found out that it was his old father-in-law.
Shi Zhijian didn't know much about the Malay tycoon in front of him, but he was the elder of the Third Young Master, so he could deal with it easily.
"Mr. Jian was joking, I just made some achievements!"
"Humble!" Jian Tianming laughed and pointed at the cigar, "Why don't you smoke? My son-in-law always likes to put good things in front of him. If you don't use them, it's a waste!"
Shi Zhijian smiled slightly: "Third Young Master and I are as close as brothers, and we feel very relaxed here!"
"I love hearing the words "close as brothers"! Jian Tianming said with a smile, "Now that the old man of the Xu family has passed away for more than two years, the third young master is also lonely here in Hong Kong. I care about his feelings! I plan to take the family business from Ma
I came to move here to cooperate with him and help him revitalize the Xu family, but I still need a leader. After thinking about it, I feel that you are the most suitable!"
Who is Shi Zhijian? As soon as he heard these words, he understood what this Tycoon Jian was planning. He was simply coveting the Xu family's foundation and wanted to help his son-in-law seize power. He was selected because of his status as a member of the Legislative Council, as well as the outside world.
Rumors abound about his "intimate relationship" with the future Governor of Hong Kong, John Mak.
"Mr. Jane wants to start a career in Hong Kong, and I agree with it! Now that Hong Kong has experienced the June 9th crisis, all industries are waiting for prosperity! Coupled with the political clarity, the opportunities in the future are limitless!" Shi Zhijian paused, took a sip of tea, and
Looking up at Jian Tianming, "If Mr. Jian is willing, I can help you introduce the person in charge of the Hong Kong Investment Promotion Bureau. As for me, although I am a friend of the Third Young Master, I am very busy with my affairs, and I really don't have much time to spare!"
Shi Zhijian's words were very tactful. If you want to come to Hong Kong to do business, I can help you lead the way. As for whether you want to help Xu Sanshao seize power or something, I'm not interested!
After Jian Tianming heard what Shi Zhijian said, he was slightly startled, then laughed loudly, puffed out a puff of cigar smoke from his mouth, flicked the ashes wantonly and said, "Well said! But I thought too much!"
In fact, from the very beginning when Jian Tianming wanted to march into Hong Kong to help his son-in-law seize power, Master Xu did not agree.
Xu Sanshao rarely had a friendly relationship with his eldest and second brothers, and occasionally went back to drink the soup prepared by his sister-in-law.
Everyone likes power, but family love is also very precious.
But Xu Sanshao is the kind of person who values family ties more.
When Jian Tianming proposed to help him become the head of the Xu family, Xu Sanshao objected.
So the father-in-law made a bet with his son-in-law. If Shi Zhijian could be persuaded to help and help Xu Sanshao advance to a higher position, then Xu Sanshao would follow Jian Tianming's arrangement and regain the power of the Xu family.
Now it seems that Shi Zhijian refused directly without even a little leeway.
Jian Tianming felt a little unhappy with Shi Zhijian in his heart. Who was he? In Malaysia, it can be said that one hand covers the sky. It is already difficult to make a low-profile request to a junior like you. It is really disrespectful for you to refuse me.
However, Jian Tianming and Shi Zhijian met for the first time, but Shi Zhijian and Xu Sanshao have experienced great storms, and their friendship has been tested and baptized. After the two became friends, they supported them all the way until now. The relationship is extraordinary and cannot be casual.
Cut off.
What's more, Shi Zhijian's status was extraordinary. Even though Jian Tianming was dissatisfied with him, he couldn't help but keep an eye on him. He even wanted to take the opportunity to get closer to Shi Zhijian and let this thoughtful young man call him Shibo.
"Since Ajian, you have your own ideas, I will no longer force others to make things difficult for you." Jian Tianming retreated in order to advance, "In short, you and the Third Young Master are brothers. From now on, I will be Qin Shibo, and we are all one family!" After that,
Jian Tianming also personally picked up the teapot and continued the tea ceremony for Shi Zhijian: "Drink tea first!"
Shi Zhijian knew that this cup of tea was not good to drink. Sure enough, after drinking the tea, Jian Tianming started to get drunk again.
"Since you are not willing to help the third young master run the Xu family, I won't force you to do it. Then help his construction company - I heard that you have a lot of construction resources at your disposal now. The construction of universities in education alone is
There are two of them, how about letting one come out and let us husband and wife try their skills?"
Shi Zhijian established a real estate alliance and raised funds to promote "everyone has housing and education". It can be said that he has a lot of resources at his disposal. Coupled with his current close relationship with the future Hong Kong Governor Mak Laiho, these resources will be available in the future.
Absolutely profitable!
Jian Tianming could smell the smell from as far away as Malaysia and come over to get a piece of the pie, not to mention the local tycoons in Hong Kong.
Recently, there has been a long queue of people wanting to treat Shi Zhijian to dinner, giving Shi Zhijian a headache.
Xu Sanshao pretended to be dumbfounded and watched his father-in-law force Shi Zhijian into the palace, making Shi Zhijian spit out his fat.
Although he has an extraordinary relationship with Shi Zhijian, he is too worried about face to ask for resources in person. His father-in-law is different. He is typically thick-skinned! He is known as the "Shameless King" of Malaysia! It is most appropriate for him to ask for resources.
Shi Zhijian smiled and picked up the tea again: "Shibo was joking. Although I have some resources, these resources have not been determined yet. In addition, education construction has a long way to go, especially the two universities are the top priority and require strength.
Strong construction companies start construction!”
"Oh, you mean that if I add San Shao's company, it's not strong enough?" Jian Tianming asked, "You also know that I am a lawyer, so I may not have much experience in construction, but San Shao is different.
, you have been with him through thick and thin for so many years, you should understand what kind of person he is and what the strength of his construction company is?"
"Of course I understand the strength of his company. My previous cooperation with him in developing Meteor Garden has proven everything."
"Is there any doubt?" Jian Tianming attacked again, "Could it be that you wanted to avoid suspicion, so you deliberately didn't choose Xu Architecture? If that's true, it would make me very sad!"
Shi Zhijian couldn't laugh or cry. This Tycoon Jian is really difficult to deal with. The tycoons in Hong Kong are generally very traditional and are used to hiding their thoughts and not telling the truth. However, Jian Tianming in front of him is a highly educated lawyer. He only wants the truth and doesn't care.
Face, when I heard that I was going to be perfunctory, I immediately blocked all the ways to perfunctory, and then continued to ask if it was okay.
"What Shibo said makes it difficult for me. The relationship between me and the Third Young Master is extraordinary, both public and private, but I only deal with things, not people!" Shi Zhijian finished speaking and looked at Jian Tianming with a burning gaze, "So Jian Tianming
When the time comes, I will arrange an open tender, and when the time comes, I wish you, Mr. Weng, a successful start and come out on top!"
When Jian Tianming saw this, he knew there was nothing to talk about.
Shi Zhijian refused to speak, so what else could we talk about?
The atmosphere immediately cooled down.
Shi Zhijian didn't want to sit still. He stood up and straightened his suit and said, "I'm sorry, Shibo! I suddenly remembered that I still have something to do. It seems I have to excuse myself first!"
"Ajian, are you leaving now? I'll see you off!"
Shi Zhijian nodded towards Mr. Xu.
Mr. Xu sent Shi Zhijian out.
"Ajian, you know that my father-in-law has a bad temper! He used to be a lawyer and pick on anyone he caught. Don't take what he said just now to your heart."
"How could that be? Besides, he didn't say anything wrong."
"Now, I will do the bidding openly as you said, and I will never go through the back door! But you have to promise me one thing!"
"What's going on?"
"We must not take advantage of those ghost guys this time!"
The British Hong Kong government has always given top priority to British-funded enterprises when it comes to major initiatives and construction projects. Those British-funded enterprises will only leave some residue to the Chinese businessmen in Hong Kong after taking over everything.
Xu Sanshao has been running a construction company for so many years and has long been dissatisfied with this kind of business "discrimination".
"Don't worry!" Shi Zhijian patted Xu Sanshao on the shoulder, "As long as I make the decision, all those ghost guys will attack the streets!"
