The next day, a red sun shone on the Xiangjiang River.
The destruction of the Kowloon Walled City has already become the biggest news today, but the ICAC's "tiger hunt" news has been suppressed.
However, some people still received some news from inside.
"Lei Luo was invited by the Independent Commission Against Corruption to have coffee!"
“Thunder Tiger was liquidated by the anti-corruption organization!”
"Lei Luo, you're dead!"
Sir Bailiqu was very happy today. He even went to the Longfeng Teahouse to drink morning tea and listen to some music in the morning.
These are all authentic Chinese styles, and Bailiqu, as a British knight, likes them very much.
According to his words, if you want to govern the local Chinese well, you must be more like Chinese than Chinese.
After drinking tea and listening to some songs in the morning, the door of the private room was knocked open by Dongdongdong. It was Jiang Shijie, Bailiqu's crony and an investigator from the Independent Commission Against Corruption.
Jiang Shijie carefully glanced inside the private room and saw Sir Bailiqu holding the little hand of the famous ditty singer and giving her a reward.
The actress was young and very shy. She was even more shy when she suddenly saw someone coming in.
However, Bailiqu seemed to have seen nothing. He stuffed fifty Hong Kong dollars into the actress's hands, and took the opportunity to touch the actress's smooth and delicate hands and praised: "These hands are not only good at playing the pipa, but also the piano."
."
After praising him, Bailiqu also glanced sideways at Jiang Shijie who knocked on the door and came in: "Is it okay?"
Jiang Shijie glanced at the little famous actress.
Bailiqu waved his hand and asked the little famous actress to leave.
The famous actress bowed slightly towards Baili Qu, then left with her pipa in her arms.
After the people left, Jiang Shijie walked up to Baili Qu and reported: "Lei Luo, he ran away!"
Bailiqu was not surprised at all, tapping his fingers on the table: "It's pretty fast, but I didn't expect him to be so willing. I thought you would at least have to deal with some of your real estate before leaving."
Jiang Shijie hesitated for a moment and then said bravely: "After all, Lei Luo's generation of heroes can still distinguish the important from the important. If he doesn't run away, I'm afraid he won't have a chance!"
Bailiqu smiled slightly, stopped tapping his fingers on the table, and looked at Jiang Shijie sharply: "Do you think this is really the case?"
Jiang Shijie was stunned for a moment, not sure why.
Bailiqu stood up from his seat, leaned on his civilized stick and said: "In fact, I really hope that he can stay in Hong Kong for a few more days. It would be best if he can scoop up all his real estate, stocks and so on and run away.
!”
Jiang Shijie: "Why...why?"
"Why do you say?" Bailiqu asked him, "You are an ICAC investigator. What are your responsibilities and obligations?"
"Punish corruption and fight crime!"
"That's it!" Bailiqu raised his civilized stick and pointed it at Jiang Shijie's nose, "We're done with eradicating evil! Do you understand? The more crimes the other party commits, the more we can put him to death!"
"But... Lei Luo has escaped now!"
"Wouldn't that be better? You can escape from the monk, but you can't escape from the temple!" Bailiqu's face showed a trace of sinisterness, "There is someone to vouch for him, then find the guarantor! Since we can't kill the big tiger, we will
Catch a dragon and come out and have a look!"
As he spoke, Bailiqu walked out defiantly, leaning on his cane, "Prepare the car, I'm going to see the Hong Kong Governor - what you Chinese call it, a complaint!"
…
9:00 a.m., Hong Kong Government House.
As the governor of Hong Kong for four years, Makley-ho has made every effort to govern Hong Kong according to his own vision since he took over in 1971.
During this period, Hong Kong's education, economy, and politics all developed rapidly.
Especially in terms of education, under the strong advocacy of Mak Leho, illiteracy has been basically eradicated. More than half of the four million Hong Kong citizens can read and write, and six years of compulsory education have been universalized. Many children can go to school since childhood, and those from poor families can still go to school.
Tuition fees can be waived.
Today, everyone from the Education Department came to see Mai Lihao and brought him a gift.
Mai Lihao had just finished the morning meeting and saw everyone from the Education Department in the living room. He also saw something covered with red cloth and placed on the side of the hall.
Mai Lihao didn't think much about it, and discussed with everyone the development plan of Hong Kong university education, and prepared to open three more universities, namely the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Hong Kong International University, and the Hong Kong Polytechnic University.
These three universities are the hope for the future in the 21st century, and they are also great achievements for Mai Lihao to establish his personal image in the future.
It's just that it's too difficult to start an education, especially in terms of funds. Everyone in the Education Department calls us poor. It's easy to do things if you have money, but it's difficult to do things if you don't have money.
However, Mai Lihao could not control that much. He only said that he had decided to run the three universities and he would be responsible for the funding.
As soon as they heard that the Governor of Hong Kong had taken over this important job, everyone in the Education Department was overjoyed. After all, if these three universities were really completed, they would be honored, and at least they would be able to write a glorious note on their resumes.
"Lord Governor of Hong Kong, you are so great!"
"Yes, the funds required for these three universities are not small. I didn't expect you to dare to bear it all. Such arrogance makes me ashamed!"
Everyone in the Education Department is a literati among literati, and their skills in flattery are absolutely top-notch.
Even though Mai Lihao knew that they were just talking, but everyone liked to hear good words, Mai Lihao couldn't help feeling relieved for a while.
"Oh, by the way, today is just the right day!" Suddenly the Director of Education clapped his hands and said, "At first, the gift we gave you today was a bit uneasy and a bit abrupt, but now it's just right!"
"Yes, yes! Not only is it appropriate, it is simply God's will!" The director of the Education Department also applauded.
Mai Lihao was curious, what does it mean?
I saw the director walking straight over to the gift covered in red cloth, "Mr. Governor of Hong Kong, come and see!"
As he was talking, he directly removed the red cloth, revealing a statue underneath!
Look at the statue again. It's just a statue of a head, carved lifelike, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, a wide forehead, and a high bridge of nose. Who else could it be if it wasn't Mai Lihao himself?
"Uh, this is----" Mai Lihao pointed at the sculpture and was a little stunned.
"Dear Governor of Hong Kong! This is a bust specially customized for you by raising funds from our education sector so that it can stand at the entrance of the university or in the hall of our Education Department as an image ambassador to inspire the public..." said the Director.
"Yes, every time we see your bust, we will think of you, your sincere teachings to us, and your great contribution to Hong Kong's education!" the Director of the Education Department continued.
"Yes, we have a saying in China that it takes a hundred years to cultivate trees and ten years to cultivate people! Your contribution to Hong Kong, Governor, is fully qualified to be recorded in history!" the Director said forcefully and resonantly. "Without you, there would be no education in Hong Kong.
I hope, without you, it would still be dark here and there would be no light!"
Mak Lihao was dumbfounded. He didn’t expect that he would be so highly praised by everyone. Also, wouldn’t it be common sense to erect statues after people leave Hong Kong or die? Isn’t it too early to do it now? By then, people will be erecting statues.
When you see this, do you think you are trying to gain fame?
As if seeing Mak Lihao's hesitation, the Director of Education said loudly: "Of course, some people may think that you, the Governor of Hong Kong, are trying to gain fame after seeing this statue; but in fact, everything you have done fully qualifies you to accept such a
Honor! If anyone refutes, we will all stand up and prove to the world that you are worthy of us! You are a great and noble person!"
Mak Lihao was still a little hesitant, but suddenly someone applauded and said: "That's right! Everyone has said a lot. Dear Governor of Hong Kong, you deserve such an honor!"
While he was talking, he saw Sir Bailiqu, who was in charge of the judicial power of Hong Kong, walking in from outside with a cane and an arrogant attitude.
"It turns out to be Sir Sir!"
"Hello, my lord!"
Everyone in the Education Department said hello to Bailiqu.
Regardless of official position, status, or status, Bailiqu was several heads above them.
Bailiqu nodded casually, saying hello to everyone, and then looked at Hong Kong Governor Mak Lihao: "Mr. Governor, since everyone is willing to build a monument and statue for you, why do you refuse? If you refuse,
It’s like rejecting everyone’s good intentions!”
Seeing that Bailiqu had said this, Mai Lihao felt slightly happy, and then he declined twice more and accepted it happily.
Mai Lihao and Bailiqu have always been at odds with each other. It was unexpected that Mai Lihao became the governor of Hong Kong. Bailiqu was very competitive at that time. I didn't expect that London would like Mai Lihao."
"Young" is a condition that prepares Mak Laiho to serve as the Governor of Hong Kong for a few more years, so as not to step down after only a few days of sitting. The previous generation, Mak Laiho, served the longest among all the Governors of Hong Kong.
By comparison, Bailiqu is already over seventy years old. This is both his qualifications and his shortcomings.
For this reason, after Mak Lihao became the Governor of Hong Kong, he was always wary of Bailiqu. Unexpectedly, Bailiqu was very smart. Now that the fact was a foregone conclusion, he no longer aspired to sit on the throne of Hong Kong Governor. Instead, he devoted himself to helping Makliqu.
Hao governs Hong Kong.
This caught Mai Lihao off guard, and he felt that his thinking was too narrow-minded and not as upright as Bailiqu.
In fact, the reason why Bailiqu did this was to paralyze Mak Lihao and establish his selfless image, so as to have more say in the Hong Kong Governor.
Facts have proved that Bailiqu is indeed subordinate to one person and above ten thousand people in the Hong Kong government. He is the only one who has the qualifications to come in directly to meet with the Hong Kong Governor Mak Li-ho without going through a complaint.
The Education Department was very happy when they saw that this success was successful. They knew that Bailiqu had nothing to do, so they waited for Sanbaodian to see Mai Lihao for something, so they said hello to Bailiqu again and said goodbye.
Seeing the people from the Education Department leaving, Bailiqu sneered in his heart, these were the people who helped Mai Lihao carry the sedan.
Mai Lihao's most famous achievement in recent years is in education. He has built more schools one after another than department stores. If he were himself, he would definitely put the economy first, not education. The reason is very simple.
, Education is too expensive. As far as he knows, several universities run by the government have emptied the Hong Kong government's coffers, and all they got in exchange is such a half-human statue. Is it worth it?
