"Dear Mai Lihao, what kind of understanding do you have of Hong Kong after being here for so long?" A group of dignitaries gathered together to tease a ghost guy.
"You know? I think Hong Kong is a beautiful place, but it has been tainted by some not-so-bright things." Mai Lihao showed no mercy and said to these noble people who were laughing at him.
Maliho is fifty-three years old this year. He is an authentic baron of the British Empire. However, he looks older than other British elderly people. He wears well-made golf clothes and his silver hair is neatly combed.
Sitting on the sun lounger with a walnut walking stick next to the seat, it looks like the best model for an elderly British gentleman.
The senior official named Mike laughed loudly: "Defiled? Isn't this word too serious?"
"Yes, Hong Kong is very beautiful. We just need to see its beautiful side. As long as the world is peaceful, everything will be fine!" another person said.
Mai Lihao snorted: "That's because you haven't experienced the special side of Hong Kong! For example, when I come to Hong Kong to handle immigration procedures, I have to tip the clerk one pound. For example, when I go to the bank to handle business, I have to tip
A tip of one pound is given to the salesperson who helps! Even when I go to a teahouse to drink tea or a coffee shop to drink coffee, I still have to tip!”
"Tipping is normal! These are the behaviors of gentlemen from the British Empire!" said the man named Mike.
"Really? Then the medical staff ask for 'tea money' from the patients, otherwise they won't even get boiled water and bedpans. Firefighters have to charge 'hose opening fees' to put out fires, otherwise they would rather watch the fire burn... Do these count as our British people?
Imperial gentlemanly behavior?" Mai Lihao asked, staring at Mike and the others.
Mike and others were overwhelmed, and they all looked embarrassed. They felt that Mai Lihao was ignorant, but they had no words to refute him.
"It seems that no one can answer my question! So sorry, I have another appointment! I am very happy today, especially being able to play golf with all the gentlemen!" Mai Lihao stood up, straightened his clothes, and then picked up his clothes.
He drank all the juice on the table and finally said: "I don't like waste the most!" Then he took out his wallet from his arms, took out a pound and pressed it under the cup, "Besides, this is my drink
fee!"
After speaking, in full view of everyone, Mai Lihao picked up his wooden cane and walked away with a gentleman's steps.
Seeing Mai Lihao leaving, Mike and his gang started shouting: "Why are you so proud!"
"Yes, pretending to be noble will only lead to death!"
"Damn, what the hell!"
A group of people cursed at Mai Lihao's back.
…
Peninsula Hotel, Kowloon, Hong Kong.
Outdoor cafe.
Mai Lihao was wearing a crisp black suit, a top hat, and a cane. After arriving at the coffee shop, he looked around and saw a man in white standing up in a quiet place near the balcony and waving to him.
Mai Lihao walked towards the man in white.
The man greeted him, stretched out his hand and said: "Hello, Mr. Mai Lihao, my name is Shi Zhijian."
"Hello, Mr. Shi, nice to meet you!"
"Please sit down!" Shi Zhijian shook hands with Mai Lihao and invited the other party to sit down.
The waitress came over and asked Mai Lihao what he wanted.
Mai Lihao ordered a cup of cappuccino, then leaned his cane on the chair, straightened his spine and looked at Shi Zhijian and said: "Well, dear Mr. Shi, if you have anything to say, just tell me, I can give you ten minutes."
." After saying that, he glanced at his watch.
"It looks like you are really busy!" Shi Zhijian stirred the coffee cup in front of him and said to Mai Lihao.
Mai Lihao nodded slightly: "Yes, time is more precious to me because I have to use it to do many things."
"For example?" Shi Zhijian asked with interest. "Are we going to solve Hong Kong's housing problem and education problem?"
Mai Lihao was surprised and couldn't help but look at Shi Zhijian one more time.
To be honest, he agreed to Huo Daheng to meet Shi Zhijian this time just to sell Huo Daheng a favor. He had no favorable impression of Shi Zhijian and felt there was no need to get to know him.
When they met just now, the only thing Mai Lihao felt when he saw Shi Zhijian was that he was very young!
And it is really rare for such a young person to achieve such achievements in Hong Kong!
But now, he suddenly became interested in Shi Zhijian, because the two aspects that Shi Zhijian just mentioned happened to be the two points that Mai Lihao valued most!
Nowadays, MacLeho is not the governor of Hong Kong. He has only been in Hong Kong for two years as the head of the financial department, reviewing and approving financial projects. What he values most is the feedback of Hong Kong residents on housing issues, and the education issues of Hong Kong children. He feels that this is an important issue.
The most important thing is that financial support should be allocated.
"Dear Shi, I have to admit that your sense of smell is very keen! Indeed, I attach great importance to these two issues related to people's livelihood! Unfortunately, I am not the governor of Hong Kong and cannot make the decision on many things! In addition, you should have heard of me
The name of Gui Lao - right, you like to call us Gui Lao the most. In Gui Lao's team, I have always been excluded! So if you ask me for help or something, I'm sorry, but I still
I really can’t help!”
Mai Lihao guessed that Shi Zhijian wanted to see him this time because he had something to ask for help. Instead of letting Shi Zhijian speak, he might as well just block it.
Shi Zhijian smiled and was about to speak when the waitress came over with coffee.
The waitress put the coffee in front of Mai Lihao, smiled at Mai Lihao and asked if there was anything else he wanted. Mai Lihao shook his head, said thank you, and after the waitress left, reached out to the sugar bowl.
He took a bag of white sugar, tore it open and sprinkled it evenly into the coffee cup, then stirred it evenly with a coffee spoon. Then he looked up at Shi Zhijian and said, "What do you want to talk about?" He looked like he was listening attentively.
"Don't worry, Mr. Mai Lihao, I'm not asking you for help this time, let alone taking money from your pocket! On the contrary, I want to help you, and I want to support you with money!"
"Uh, what do you mean?" Mai Lihao looked stunned, a little confused about Shi Zhijian.
"First of all, I know that it is difficult for your financial department to come up with money, and you are the one who does big things, so I am ready to help you get housing for everyone in Hong Kong and education for everyone's children!
"Shi Zhi firmly believed in his vow.
"How can you help me?" Mai Lihao sneered, thinking that Shi Zhijian was joking, "I know Mr. Shi that you are very rich, but it is not a small thing for everyone to have a house to live in and books to read. You alone are
It can’t be done!”
"I know this! I'm not that arrogant. I can handle so many things!" Shi Zhijian smiled and said, "So what I mean is that I will unite with the colleagues in Hong Kong to provide housing for Hong Kong."
We need to work harder on housing and education issues!”
"You want to unite with those tycoons in Hong Kong?" Mak Lihao became interested.
"Yes! We Chinese have a saying that there is strength in numbers! When everyone adds fuel, the flames rise! What I can't do by myself doesn't mean that others can't do it!" Shi Zhijian picked up the coffee and took a sip.
, raised his head and looked at Mai Lihao with a smile.
Mai Lihao looked level with him, and couldn't help but feel a little excited: "Why do you want to help me?"
"I'm not helping you, but helping Hong Kong! Helping the helpless people in Hong Kong and the children who have no education!" Shi Zhijian said calmly.
Mai Lihao looked at Shi Zhijian carefully, took a sip of coffee, but his heart was fluctuating.
After a long while, Mai Lihao stabilized his mind and looked into Shi Zhijian's eyes again: "Tell me your purpose, dear Shi! If you are willing to treat me as a friend!"
Shi Zhijian smiled, what he wanted was these two words from Mai Lihao - friend!
Dai Lingzhi is about to step down next year!
Many people are speculating who the next Governor of Hong Kong will be.
Judging from the current situation in Hong Kong, if we want to keep Hong Kong as it is and let everyone continue to make money and live a happy life, we must elect someone who can turn a blind eye to the current situation in Hong Kong like Dai Lingzhi.
Characters come on stage.
Therefore, everyone is not optimistic about the old-fashioned and honest Baron Maliho in front of him.
However, Shi Zhijian came from the past and knew that this Mak Lihao was the future "right man" and had been in charge of Hong Kong for ten years!
"Haha, since Mr. Mai Lihao is willing to treat me as a friend, then I will no longer hide it!" Shi Zhijian took out a letter from his pocket and pushed it in front of Mai Lihao: "
There are two things here that you need in the future, and I want to give them to you in advance!"
"What is it?" Mai Lihao picked up the envelope, looked through it, and a check for five million came out.
Mai Lihao's expression immediately changed, and he asked Shi Zhijian with the check: "What do you mean?"
Shi Zhijian smiled and said: "Don't worry, this is not for you, but donated to the Kowloon Tong Nursing Home! Of course, if you have a better project, you can also use it!"
Mai Lihao looked suspicious, "This is five million! Do you want to donate it all to the nursing home?"
"Yes, because this money came from an unfair source, I will help others donate it!"
Mai Lihao didn't expect Shi Zhijian to be so honest, but his curiosity became even more intense! So he opened the envelope and took a look at the contents of the letter. At first, his expression was very natural. He felt that the letter was nothing and the content was nothing special. But gradually
Suddenly, his expression changed, he became excited and extremely surprised!
Sitting opposite Mai Lihao, Shi Zhijian could completely feel the other person's unconcealed mood swings.
The surprise made Mai Lihao's face tremble, and he suddenly looked up at Shi Zhijian: "These...are you writing this?"
Shi Zhijian picked up the coffee and took a sip: "Of course! How about it? Mr. Mai Lihao, can you give me some advice?"
Mai Lihao's eyes widened slightly, and he said incredulously: "What you said here is to completely eliminate corruption, is it true?"
"If you think it's true, it is true! If you think I'm joking, then this suggestion is worthless and just a joke!"
Mai Lihao could no longer control the excitement in his heart. His hands were shaking a little. He looked at the letter again. In the letter, Shi Zhijian gave a suggestion to eradicate corruption, which was to establish the Independent Commission Against Corruption!
The more Mai Lihao watched, the more excited he became. He even danced a little, which made the surrounding coffee shop patrons look sideways, wondering what was wrong with this ghost guy.
Seeing the attention of everyone around him, Shi Zhijian had to remind Baron Mai Lihao in front of him: "Sorry, this is a public place, so please----"
"I know! I know!" Mai Lihao waved his fist excitedly and tightly grasped Shi Zhijian's letter.
As a ghost official, Mak Lihao has always hated the corruption in Hong Kong, but there is nothing he can do about it!
Now the idea that Shi Zhijian gave him can not only eradicate this stubborn disease, but also bring peace and tranquility to Hong Kong!
The most important thing is that Shi Zhijian’s suggestions above are fully “executable”!
This is what matters most!
You must know that corruption in Hong Kong began in the 1940s and flourished in the 1960s. Collecting black money has become a routine and prevalent in people's lives!
The British Hong Kong government has thought about how to rectify this situation before, but failed repeatedly! Even some ghosts who were assigned to fight corruption eventually became the most corrupt figures!
One of the biggest features of the Independent Commission Against Corruption proposed by Shi Zhijian now is that it is extremely independent! It is separated from various systems and becomes a brand-new department! It is no longer constrained by the police department and has the power to handle cases independently!
"Your suggestion is very good! Dear Shi!" Mai Lihao said excitedly, "but now is not the time."
"I understand! Unless the Hong Kong governor changes next year." Shi Zhijian stood up and said, "Maybe then the Independent Commission Against Corruption will be established!"
Mai Lihao also stood up: "Are you confident about this?"
"No, it's me who has confidence in you!" Shi Zhijian stretched out his hand to shake Mak Lihao's hand again, "Because in my opinion, you must be the candidate for the Hong Kong Governor's election next year!"
With a bang, Mai Lihao's head almost exploded.
"What did you say?"
"It's just a prophecy!" Shi Zhijian smiled and let go of Mai Lihao's hand, "Also, if the Independent Commission Against Corruption is established, I will recommend someone to you!"
"Who do you want to recommend?" Mai Lihao has not yet woken up from Shi Zhijian's "groundbreaking" prediction.
Others don't know it, but Mai Lihao himself knows it very well. In fact, London has talked to him many times! However, these talks were held in secret, and the outside world didn't know at all!
It is precisely because of this that Mai Lihao despises those ghost guys who eat corpses! But such a secret was actually revealed by Shi Zhijian, which shocked Mai Lihao and thought he was a ghost!
Shi Zhijian pointed to the five million check in Mai Lihao's hand, "The person I want to recommend is——the owner of this check!"
Mai Lihao smiled: "Such an honest person must be excellent!"
Shi Zhijian nodded: "Yes, I can assure you that he is really excellent and will definitely be able to help you a lot in the future!"
"I believe in you, dear Shi!" Mai Lihao said with a serious expression for the first time, "because from this moment on, you are my best friend!"
