ps: Readers said the previous chapter was too watery, so I will give this chapter 3000 words for free.

--------

4 month 29 day.

Downing Street, Prime Minister's Office.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister!"

"I have reason to suspect that this Five Star Group is a nail placed in Hong Kong Island by that Eastern superpower!"

Fat Peng reported to Prime Minister May with a serious expression.

A week ago, he received information about Guan Zu and the Five Star Group sent from Hong Kong Island.

During this week, the more he studied, the more he felt that Guan Zu and the Five Star Group were a bit too "mainland".

So he did not dare to delay and quickly reported to the Prime Minister.

Prime Minister May was sitting on the sofa. He was not as tall as Fat Peng and had neatly combed hair. Over the years, his hair had gradually become mixed with silver strands, adding a bit of calmness and wisdom.

"Why do you say that?"

Prime Minister May knew the importance of Hong Kong Island to Victoria, and he was very vigilant and cautious.

Fei Peng: "The information I mentioned comes from the investigation data of the Special Branch, and it has been personally investigated and verified by my subordinates in Hong Kong Island... The Special Branch is our country's military intelligence agency. Every member has been trained and assessed in the Military Intelligence Department, which is enough to guarantee their loyalty."

Prime Minister May nodded.

Fat Peng: "According to the information from the Political Department, the support rate of this Guan Zu and Five Star Group in Hong Kong Island is very high..."

"He used to be a gangster from a black society, born in Hong Kong Island. In 1990, his behavior suddenly changed. He started to like doing charity work..."

"We established the Five Star Property Management Company and changed the business of the association to all legal businesses..."

Fei Peng talked about the Five Star Property Management Company, the Five Star Charity Foundation, Causeway Bay, etc., and finally talked about Guan Zu's victory in the district council election, surpassing other opponents by a large margin...

He then talked about a fire incident on a street. He was elected as a representative by thousands of citizens and negotiated with the richest man, Boss Li, and obtained compensation.

They also set up an education group and acquired many schools... They launched the "Knowledge Cup" and "Millionaire"...

"It is worth mentioning that the Knowledge Cup organized by Guan Zu is all about the history of the great Eastern country, and does not touch on Victorian or international history at all."

"And his charitable foundation does good deeds regardless of the cost, and is widely praised by the citizens..."

"We also acquired a hospital and turned it into a charitable non-profit hospital..."

The more Prime Minister May listened, the more solemn her expression became.

As the prime minister, he is called the "civilian prime minister."

Why is it called this?

Mainly due to his background and style of doing things. Unlike many politicians who come from aristocratic or political families, Prime Minister May grew up in an ordinary family. His father was a juggler and gardener, and the family was not well off. Prime Minister May also experienced unemployment in his early years, and the twists and turns of life gave him a deep understanding of the hardships of ordinary people.

Throughout his political career, he has always maintained a down-to-earth and people-friendly style. He does not put on airs, but often goes deep into the people, talks with them, and understands their real needs. His policy proposals also focus on people's livelihood issues, and he is committed to improving the living conditions of ordinary people, working hard to create more employment opportunities for the people, and improving social welfare.

This quality of "coming from the people and going to the people" earned him the affectionate title of "Prime Minister of the People".

In 1989, when the Conservative Party leader, the Iron Lady, was prime minister, the public's support for the Conservative Party was much lower than that of the Labour Party. The Conservative Party became anxious and directly pushed out Prime Minister May.

In other words, Prime Minister May snatched the position of Prime Minister from the Iron Lady, and also benefited from her reputation as the "commoner prime minister."

Prime Minister Mei heard about Guan Zu's series of actions from Fat Peng...

So familiar!

so similar!
Isn't this what I do?
Moreover, he is even more radical than me!
for free!
Just do good things!

This behavior style is very similar to that of the great Eastern powers in the past.

Moreover, "five stars, five stars", doesn't it imply that "benefits come from the East"?

Fat Peng: "By the way, I have evidence that he is a puppet of the mainland. He has invited doctors and nurses from the Eastern Power to take up the post...!"

"He is still a legislator, and the six people under him are all legislators!"

"There is also a five-star supermarket..."

"And Central Plaza..."

Fat Peng kept saying: "Now, he has a community of interests with two million citizens on Hong Kong Island!"

"That means he can now incite 200 million citizens at any time!"

"It's only been two years...if we delay any longer, I'm afraid his power will expand faster and faster!"

Prime Minister May, change color!!
“Bang~~~~”

He stood up angrily.

"What on earth does that Wei Dewei do for a living?"

"Why let Guan Zu develop to this extent!"

He walked back and forth in the study, becoming more and more dissatisfied with Wei Dewei, and felt that Fei Peng should take up the position earlier.

However, he is not the kind of person who will only believe one thing, so he needs to call Hong Kong Island and ask his friends to find out and confirm it.

……

1 days later,

Prime Minister May made several phone calls to her acquaintances in Hong Kong Island, and after understanding the situation, she quickly reported to the Queen.

After hearing this, the queen also became anxious.

Curse Wei Dewei for growing up eating shit!
The two discussed it and made a decision - let Fei Peng go to Hong Kong Island early!

It's the end of April now, so let's go there on May 4th.

obviously,
The butterfly effect caused by Guan Zu's arrival finally brought the storm to Victoria, affecting Fei Peng's appointment date.

Originally, Fat Peng was going to go to Hong Kong Island on July 7, deliver a speech and take over the post of Governor of Hong Kong.

And now, it has been brought forward to May 5th.

quickly,

Victoria informed the University of Hong Kong and informed them of the change of Governor of Hong Kong.

In theory, the Governor of Hong Kong was appointed unilaterally by the Victorian government, and theoretically did not need to report to China. However, as the process of Hong Kong's return progressed, especially after the signing of the Joint Declaration, Victoria also needed to take into account China's position and a series of agreements between China and Britain on the Hong Kong issue when dealing with matters related to the governance of Hong Kong.

Therefore, it is necessary to inform Todai.

then,

Dongda: “???”

……

……

5 month 1 day,
Hong Kong Governor's Office.

"what?"

"I'm leaving my post on the 10th of this month?"

"And on the 15th, there will be a new Governor of Hong Kong taking over?"

In that gorgeously decorated and solemn study, Wei Dewei was stunned after receiving a call from Victoria Downing Street.

Then, his face turned gloomy in an instant.

A strong feeling of dissatisfaction surged in his heart.

"Why so urgent?"

"It took nearly half a month to inform myself."

In the past few years in Hong Kong Island, he thought he had worked diligently, tried hard to balance the interests of all parties, and devoted all his energy to Victoria's rule in Hong Kong Island, but now he was suddenly told that his term of office was about to end, and in such a short time.

He was reluctant to leave this center of power. The position of Governor of Hong Kong endowed him with supreme glory and power, allowing him to call the shots in this land.

Besides, I haven’t made enough money yet!

How many years has it been?
The longest-serving governors were Grantham (11 years) and MacLehose (10 years).

I have only been here for a little over 4 years.

He is not willing!

"Mr. Prime Minister, isn't half a month too urgent? I haven't yet..." He tried to argue with the person on the other end of the phone, but was interrupted by Prime Minister May halfway through his words.

Prime Minister May said in a cold tone: "This is the decision of the Queen and I. All you have to do is obey the order!"

“…Yes~”

Wei Dewei hung up the phone silently, sat in the chair, and stared at the familiar garden outside the window with empty eyes.

He looked at the study, the Governor's House, and the power in his hands with nostalgia.

But in the end, he sighed deeply and accepted this cruel fact helplessly.

……

……

That night, it was time for supper again.

Mao Xiangyang invited Guan Zu to have a midnight snack.

Causeway Bay. The fresh pork offal porridge stall is brightly lit. More than 20 tables are set up on the street, and the atmosphere is bustling with diners.

At this time, at one of the tables, Guan Zu, Gong Wei, Xi Gui, and Mao Xiangyang were sitting around the table.

In the middle of the table, there was a large clay pot of porridge, with dishes placed around it: the pig heart was sliced ​​into thin slices, the pig liver was ruddy in color, the pig intestines were processed very cleanly, and there was fresh pork...

"what?"

"A change of Governor? On May 5th?"

Guan Zu was confused.

No?

Why do I remember it was July 7th?

How come it's so much earlier all of a sudden?

Mao Xiangyang said with a serious face: "Just yesterday, Victoria called us in China and said that the Governor of Hong Kong will be replaced and informed us that the replacement will be on the 15th of this month."

"Now the leaders above are a little shocked. Victoria has never been so anxious to change governors in so many years."

“So, we wonder if something happened on Hong Kong Island.”

Upon hearing this, Guan Zu's expression also turned serious.

"Yeah, what happened in Hong Kong Island?"

"Why did they change the Governor of Hong Kong ahead of schedule?"

It's so unreasonable.

In my previous life, it was July 7th.

He remembered this day very clearly.

Mao Xiangyang: "Therefore, the leaders above are very vigilant. We hope that our staff in Hong Kong Island can find out the reason why Victoria is so anxious to change people as soon as possible."

Guan Zu nodded seriously: "Yes, we should find the reason as soon as possible."

Mao Xiangyang looked at Guan Zu and said, "Ah Zu, your Five Star Group is so big now, you should have a lot of information channels. So I would like to ask you to help me find the reason."

Guan Zu said solemnly: "Don't worry, Brother Mao, the country has entrusted us with this, so we dare not neglect it! I will definitely help you with this!"

Mao Xiangyang: "Thank you, Grandpa, the country will remember you!"

Guan Zu nodded solemnly: "Yes! This is what I should do!"

Next,
Guan Zu was eating his midnight snack porridge, but he felt that the usually delicious pork porridge had become tasteless.

Why?

What is the difference between the past life and the present?
and many more……

I?
Guan Zu’s cerebellum shrank for a moment, but he soon realized that it shouldn’t be him... right.

I'm just an ordinary citizen, there's no way I could cause Victoria to make such a fuss... right?

……

……

the following few days,

News began to spread from Hong Kong Island that the Governor was going to be changed.

This immediately caused an uproar in Hong Kong Island.

The news came out so late?

Isn't this a very good secret?

Who will be the new Governor of Hong Kong?

What is the management style like?

What is your resume?
……

April 5th, the sun was shining brightly.

The Governor's Office held a press conference.

On the lawn, numerous reporters from TVB, ATV, Taiwan, Macao, domestic and international channels were already in place, with their cameras all pointed at the podium.

Wei Dewei, dressed in a well-tailored dark suit, walked up to the podium with steady steps.

Kakaka~~~
Countless flashes of light went off.

"Dear friends from the media!"

He slowly glanced at the reporters in the audience.

"Today, I stand here to announce to you that my term as Governor of Hong Kong Island will soon end."

"The time I spent working in Hong Kong Island was the most precious and unforgettable experience in my life..."

"However, all good things must come to an end... I firmly believe that the new Governor will lead Hong Kong Island towards a better future with his unique wisdom and ability."

At this point, Wei Dewei's eyes revealed a hint of reluctance:
"At the time of departure... I wish that Hong Kong Island can continue to ride the economic wave and maintain its status as an international financial and trade center; I hope that all sectors of society can work together to make Hong Kong Island's society more harmonious and stable; I hope that Hong Kong Island..."

He spoke eloquently for more than 20 minutes.

As he spoke, he, who had been determined originally, began to show a hint of reluctance and loneliness.

This was followed by an hour-long interview with reporters.

At the end of the press conference, Wei Dewei made a final speech:

“I would like to thank every Hong Kong Island citizen for their support and trust during my term, and thank people from all walks of life for their efforts in the development of Hong Kong Island.”

“Although I am about to leave, the future of Hong Kong Island will always be in my heart.”

……

At noon, ATV and TVB both reported the news.

Naturally, there was a lot of discussion throughout Hong Kong, and the citizens and neighbors were filled with complex emotions of expectation and worry about the departure of the Governor and the succession of the new Governor.

They are afraid that the new leader will mess up Hong Kong Island, but they also hope that the new leader will have enough ability to continue to keep Hong Kong Island prosperous and stable...

With the advancement of Western education, most young citizens still have trust in the role of Governor and believe that the person who comes will not be too bad.

……

the following few days,

Wei Dewei officially began the process of leaving office:
I sorted out the handover documents, cleared the finances, and talked with the Chief Secretary, the Financial Secretary, the Attorney General, the courts, the Legislative Council, and other heads of departments to inform them of my departure and to remind them to ensure a stable and continuous work during the transition period.

……

In the following days, all of Hong Kong was watching for the arrival of the new Governor.

At this time,
The Chief Secretary also held a press conference to announce the resume of the new Governor of Hong Kong.

——Fat Peng, born in an ordinary family in Victoria, has served in many important positions in Parliament and was elected to the House of Commons in 1979...

Hong Kong citizens take a look:
"????"

Nothing special!

It can even be said to be very ordinary.

Why would such a person be placed in such an important place as Hong Kong Island to be the Governor?

印象-1-1-1-1-1……

……

July 5st this day,
Fat Peng, his wife and two daughters arrived at Kai Tak Airport from Singapore on a special plane of Swire Group and Cathay Pacific.

Kai Tak Airport,

At this time, there were many reporters and government department leaders welcoming us at the airport.

Fei Peng stepped out of the plane door and waved to the welcoming crowd.

Afterwards, a police convoy led the way and escorted Fat Peng's governor's car to Tsim Sha Tsui Pier in Kowloon. During the entire process, he waved to the citizens of Hong Kong Island from time to time in the car.

Why do you want to do this?
Because Fat Peng has already determined the image of his visit to Hong Kong this time - close to the people! Close to the people! And damn, close to the people!

Afterwards, we boarded the Governor of Hong Kong Island's private yacht, the Lady Murray, and, under the escort of the Royal Victoria Navy patrol ship, headed for Queen's Pier to land in Hong Kong Island.

During the event, two fireboats performed a water spray show in Victoria Harbour, the Royal Victoria Air Force and the Royal Auxiliary Air Force stationed in Hong Kong flew over the Lady Murline yacht in formation and saluted, and a 17-gun salute was fired from the HMS Tamar Royal Naval Base in Admiralty.

After Fat Peng arrived at Queen's Pier, "God Save the Queen" was played on the spot and the police guard of honor was reviewed.

Finally, Fat Peng and his family entered the "Hong Kong City Hall Concert Hall". The audience stood in silence and the Victoria National Anthem was played again.

Afterwards, Fei Peng took the oath and signed!

Fat Peng delivered his inaugural speech.

It was at this time that Fat Peng officially took office as the 28th Governor of Hong Kong Island.

Hong Kong Island,

Officially entered the era of Fat Peng!
