After the infrastructure improvements in Tiu Keng Ling, the scenery is no worse than that of many places. There are mountains and rivers here. For example, the simple ferry is still made of wood, and there are still passenger ships from here to Hong Kong Island every day.
Li Jianhui made a special trip to visit village elder Zhang Hui in the afternoon to discuss the future planning of Diaojingling.
Since Huihong City has just leveled the site and cannot move here yet, Li Jianhui is not in a hurry to develop here.
He came here this time mainly because of the ferry issue. In the future, he will build Tiu Keng Ling into a wealthy residential area like Mid-Levels, Deep Water Bay, and Repulse Bay. How can this be without a large yacht pier?
With the construction of Yau Tong Highway from Tiu Keng Leng to Tseung Kwan O and the construction of Kwun Tong MTR from Tiu Keng Ling to Tseung Kwan O, this ferry will be eliminated in the future.
He plans to take the initiative from the village and apply to the government to convert this simple ferry into a yacht dock. At that time, Xinjian Investment Company will form a joint venture with the village.
The money was mainly invested by Xinjian, and the village will enjoy the dividends and increase some income for the village. This can be regarded as Li Jianhui's contribution to Diaojingling.
After hearing Li Jianhui's plan, Zhang Hui said: "Jianhui, your plan is indeed very good, but after these people move out, will Diaojing Ridge still be Diaojing Ridge?
Although this is not our hometown, many people have lived here for nearly thirty years and have long regarded this as their hometown.
Can you make some changes to your plan? Build an ordinary community in Tiu Keng Ling for the villagers of Tiu Keng Ling to live there."
Li Jianhui planned to move these villagers out of Tiu Keng Ling, with the main cost of 600,000, to cut off the influence of Baodao.
Baodao has left such a deep mark on this area over the past few decades that even though the government has carried out large-scale infrastructure renovations this year, politically charged slogans and flags can still be seen everywhere.
To completely change this situation, the best way Li Jianhui thought of was to break and build again, move the people here out of Tiu Keng Ling and let them fully integrate into the life of Xiangjiang, so that this situation will not happen again.
If, like Zhang Hui, a large community is built and all the villagers of Tiaokengling live in it, it will just change Tiaokengling village into Tiaokengling community, which will not have much effect at all.
Regarding the issue of Tiu Keng Ling, Li Jianhui and the MacLehose government have the same attitude. To completely change Tiu Keng Ling, those characteristic slogans and flags will be withdrawn from the stage of Hong Kong. Hong Kong is Hong Kong, and there is no need to create a small Taipei.
Li Jianhui's biggest advantage in Tiu Keng Ling is that most young people are more supportive of him. Although some old people are more stubborn, when it comes to their own children, being stubborn is of no use.
They are willing to live in this mud house and wooden house, but their children are not willing to live in it. There is an 800-square-foot community elevator room in Tseung Kwan O, so how can they be willing to live in this small and dilapidated mud and wood house.
Seeing that Li Jianhui was unwilling to change his plan, Zhang Hui sighed deeply. After all, he couldn't go back. Their decades of persistence were in vain in the end.
Especially in the past two years, the United States, RB and others have successively established diplomatic relations with the mainland. They have understood that the so-called counterattack is no longer possible.
Perhaps Li Jianhui is right. He has suffered so much for his own generation and cannot let the next generation become victims of politics like them.
He said aloud: "I will try my best to help you with the work of the villagers, but it is mainly for the young people. It depends on you. As long as they agree, these old stubborns in the village will change some of their own things for the happiness of their children.
concept.”
"Grandpa Zhang, just try your best. After Huihong City is completed and I have reached an agreement with the Xiangjiang government, I will communicate with the whole village. I believe everyone will be able to figure it out by then."
In 1982, there was an incident that affected Xiangjiang. Li Jianhui believed that by then, these villagers would have a big change in their thinking.
Regarding the issue of ferry reconstruction, Zhang Hui is very supportive of this. He said that he would personally handle the matter and try to get the approval from the government as soon as possible.
Zhang Hui, an old man who is nearly seventy years old, couldn't help but nag a few words about this ferry that was once responsible for the entry and exit of Diaojingling.
At that time, they were moved here and their entry and exit were almost isolated. In order to open up the connection with the outside world, they built such a simple ferry by manpower.
It was not until the Heung Kong government built Po Lam Road many years later that Tiu Keng Ling had a land access road.
Now the MTR lines from Yau Tong to Tseung Kwan O Avenue and from Kwun Tong to Tseung Kwan O will make transportation in Tiu Keng Ling more convenient. The ferry that has served Tiu Keng Ling for more than 20 years will also become history.
Li Jianhui did not have so many emotions. Seeing that Zhang Hui was about to fall into the past, he quickly said: "If the old ones don't go, the new ones won't come. In the future, the Diaojingling bus and subway will be very convenient, the time will be faster, and the cost will be reasonable."
It’s cheap, it’s time for this ferry to end its mission.”
"Forget it, you young people have not experienced life in our era and don't know how we survived at that time, otherwise you wouldn't do this."
That is to say, in this era, if it were more than ten years ago, people with thoughts like Li Jianhui would definitely be expelled from Tiu Keng Ling.
Why until now, all forces in Hong Kong regard Li Jianhui as a representative figure of the right? The most fundamental problem is that Li Jianhui is a native of Tiu Keng Ling, and Tiu Keng Ling is one of the strongholds of the right. The people here are basically right-leaning in their thoughts.
.
In the past few decades, there have been frequent conflicts between the left and right factions, and Tiu Keng Ling occupies a considerable weight in this.
Fortunately, in this era, both sides are focusing on economic development, and relations have begun to ease, which has also allowed the left and right factions in Hong Kong to calm down a lot.
In addition, the generation of Li Jianhui in Diao Kengling has grown up and has also changed some of the ideas of Diao Kengling. In addition, Li Jianhui is powerful and has the support of Chen Zhiyong and others behind him. The older generation in Diao Kengling can only look at Li Jianhui.
While turning right, there is nothing to stop it.
Li Jianhui will not explain much now. It is also for the good of the Tiu Keng Ling villagers that he should understand the historical legacy of Tiu Keng Ling as soon as possible and allow the villagers of Tiu Keng Ling to integrate into the social life of Hong Kong as soon as possible.
The memory of his past life made him very clear that Xiangjiang will inevitably return to the mainland in the future, so that the villagers of Tiu Keng Ling can get rid of this idea as soon as possible and be able to better integrate into the development of Xiangjiang in the future.
With the return of Hong Kong, it is destined that better development can only be achieved if the mind is biased towards the mainland. Now the older generation in Tiu Keng Ling is no longer able to survive. Li Jianhui and his generation have been greatly affected by living in Tiu Keng Ling for a long time.
There are still nearly 18 years until the return of Hong Kong in 1997. Li Jianhui hopes that the new generation will no longer be affected by this idea in their judgment, so that they can view the mainland more objectively.
