Hong Kong Movies: You Hongxingzi, what the hell is the charity king?

Chapter 442 "441" Second round of legislative hearing: Guan Zu continues to criticize!!
Hong Kong Governor's Office.

Hong Kong Governor Fat Pang was watching the English transcription of Guan Zu on Asia Television International Channel.

"This Guan Zu..."

"He is very good at stirring up the people..."

He has always been paying attention to the affairs of the MTR.

Because he could get money here. When the post of Governor of Hong Kong was handed over, Wei Dewei submitted this list. Among them, MTR, as the Governor of Hong Kong, could get a dividend of 1000 million Hong Kong dollars every year. He was quite shocked at the time. The subway in Hong Kong Island was actually profitable, which was not possible in Britain.

His first reaction was: Keep pushing for price increases so I can make more money.

And when Guan Zu spoke up, Fei Peng realized:

Oh no, Guan Zu is trying to win over the people again.

Sure enough, in the next 10 days, Guan Zu conducted investigations, scolded people in the Legislative Council, and appeared on TV... making an attitude of "I stand with the citizens."

He is extremely skilled in winning the hearts of the people.

And you said you are not from the north?
And now,
Fei Peng also found himself in an awkward situation.

Should he stand up?
Pushing for price increases?

No, he doesn't dare. It is obvious that all Hong Kong citizens are angry now. If he stands up, his people-friendly image will be gone.

Being close to the people is a double-edged sword. It can help him, but it can also restrict him.

Or the other way around: speak out in support of the people?
However, he was reluctant to give up the 1000 million in profits.

So, he hesitated.

"hold on."

"Let's see if the MTR can handle this Guan Zu."

……

……

a new day,
Sheung Wan,

"Why should you fire me?"

In a shopping mall, a middle-aged employee of Giordano clothing store angrily asked the store manager.

"Don't you know what you did?"

The store manager sneered: "Because you were on TV and complained about the MTR in front of Guan Zu!"

"You are just a piece of trash, what qualifications do you have to complain about the MTR?"

"If the boss above can't teach Guan Zu a lesson, can he teach you a lesson?"

"So, get out of here!"

The employee was incredulous: "I complained about the MTR, what does this have to do with the company?"

Store manager: "Don't you know who our boss is?"

Giordano was founded by the famous scumbag Lai Zing-ying, but he sold it for HK$1990 billion in 16, and then turned around to found the famous reactionary newspapers "Next Magazine" and "Apple Daily".

notorious.

The current owner of Giordano is Fung Hon-chu, who is no ordinary person in Hong Kong Island. In the 1843s and s, he served as a member of the Urban Council and Legislative Council of Hong Kong Island, and the Premier, Chief Premier, and Chairman of the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals of Hong Kong Island... (In , the Legislative Council was established in Hong Kong Island, and there were Legislative Council members at that time.)
Although he is old, he is still happy to do the favor when a phone call comes.

Therefore,
The employee who dared to complain about MTR was directly fired.

The employee was furious: "Okay, I'll resign, but you have to pay me this month's salary!"

"You must be joking!"

The store manager sneered: "You caused trouble, and you still have the nerve to ask for wages? Get lost!"

……

Over the next few days, the same scene occurred in many places on Hong Kong Island.

Citizens who complained about the MTR worked in hotels, restaurants, and shopping malls one after another. As long as they went on TV to complain about the MTR and were recognized, they would be intervened by mysterious forces and quickly fired.

For some citizens, who were already in financial difficulties, this resignation directly hit them in the sore spot.

Some of the citizens left in anger.

Some citizens also begged for mercy.

"I still have a house to rent, please don't fire me."

"I was wrong. Isn't it enough for me to admit my mistake? I just hope you can give me another chance. I will never complain again."

"My elderly family member needs money to recover from illness. Can you please not fire me? Please."

If it wasn't really difficult, who would be willing to bow their heads and apologize?

Then these pleas were met with wanton laughter.

"Hahaha~~~ Weren't you very angry when you complained about the MTR? Why are you being so humble now?"

"Don't you guys really want to find that Guan Zu? Go find him! See if he can help you."

In the wanton ridicule,
However, one sentence touched some employees.

Correct!
Find five-star properties!

Looking for Mr. Guan!

When they were in trouble, the only person they thought of who could help them was Mr. Guan!
……

……

At this time,
Five Star Group Building,

The employee who was fired by Giordano was in financial distress because of the firing, so he sought help from Five Star Property in Sheung Wan.

Laughing, as the district manager, was keenly aware of the big problem and quickly reported the matter.

one day later,

This citizen and eight other citizens were called to the headquarters building of the Five Star Group.

Met Guan Zu.

"Mr. Guan!"

The eight people were very excited after seeing Guan Zu.

Guan Zu smiled and shook hands with the eight people: "I know everything about you."

When Guan Zu knew about this, he was speechless.

"You are being treated unfairly because you speak out for the people's livelihood."

"I, Guan Zu, have always believed that those who carry firewood for the public should not be allowed to freeze to death in the snow and wind, so I will solve your problem."

"Work, you can join the Five Star Group."

The eight citizens were immediately surprised.

Can I join the Five Star Group?
Isn't this better than the old job?
Who doesn’t know that the Five Star Group offers high salaries and good benefits!

Guan Zu: "Some of you have financial difficulties at home, but don't panic, you can ask the Five Star Group to advance your salary."

Guan Zu thought about it very carefully.

Eight citizens were moved to tears.

Mr. Guan, so gentle!
Guan Zu: "In addition, you were fired without reason. I have consulted the employment lawyer of Five Star Group. Your former company needs to pay you "severance pay". When the time comes, the lawyer will personally help you to collect your salary."

"real?!"

The eight citizens were excited and grateful.

"Thank you, Mr. Guan!"*8
Guan Zu smiled: "We are all a family from now on. Your business is the company's business, and the company will never let you suffer any loss!"

We are tired of logging!
8 people were so moved that they almost cried: "Mr. Guan!"

Brother Zu is like the sun, his kindness is endless!
Go through fire and water, Mr. Guan!

Loyalty – 99%!

……

After Guan Zu sent the eight people away, he called Wen Huixin and asked her to send a reporter over.

This matter of MTR must be exposed.

what?
MTR won’t admit it?

What does it matter whether it admits it or not? As long as the citizens believe it was done by it, then it was done by it!

At 19:00 in the evening,

ATV News reported this incident:
"Recently, the Five Star Group has received many requests for help from citizens. These citizens are the ones who complained about the MTR and were featured on TV news..."

"And these citizens are experiencing what appears to be meddling by the MTR Corporation, and have been fired by their companies one after another."

"Next, here are the interviews with these employees..."

After the news report,

It aroused the anger of countless citizens across Hong Kong.

For a time, all the citizens in Hong Kong were cursing.

"Puniam!"

"Fall to the street and shovel!"

"Fuck you, you are such a jerk!"

"Fuck you!"

the next day,
Many citizens went to the MTR Corporation in West Kowloon to cause trouble.

Holding banners and holding sit-in protests is so low!

Throwing out garbage...

Blocking the company entrance...

Of course, there are also a few tough guys.

I don’t know where the bounty came from last night. It’s 1000 Hong Kong dollars for a piece of feces, and the target is Tang Xin.

Soon, a few poor gangsters took up the task and came early this morning.

Around 9: AM,

Mr. Tang, the boss of MTR, came to the company in his luxury black Maybach. As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw several gangsters rushing towards him excitedly.

"This is the chairman's car!"

"The license plate number and car model all match!"

"it's him!"

"Throw!"

then……

Bang bang bang~~~
Pile of shit was thrown directly onto Mr. Tang’s car.

In the car,
Mr. Tang, who was sitting on a soft, close-fitting leather sofa, immediately blushed.

How should he get out of the car when he sees shit all over the window?

Furious, he quickly contacted the West Kowloon Police Station to arrest the man.

Soon these gangsters were caught, but they were not panicked at all because the reward also included "bail" and "lawyer fees", which was a complete package.

Maybe if I go to the police station, I can become famous!

I am the man who fucked the MTR boss to death!
At noon that day,

ATV and TVB both reported this "shocking scandal"!
ATV: "Dear viewers... This morning, the gates of the MTR Corporation were greeted by the wrath of angry citizens. Among them, the chairman of the board of directors of the MTR Corporation, Tang Xin, was subjected to a 'special attack' by several enthusiastic citizens who were filled with righteous indignation, and piles of feces were thrown at him..."

TVB: "MTR chairman Tang Xin encountered an unexpected situation when his car arrived at the company. Several criminal suspects suddenly rushed forward and threw feces at his luxury car. Tang Xin was trapped in the car, and the scene was very embarrassing..."

Citizens all over Hong Kong burst into laughter.

“Great smash!”

"Good job!"

"Hahaha~~~~"

The original anger disappeared immediately, and what was left was more gloating.

the following few days,

Following suit, a large number of citizens went to the MTR Corporation to dispose of their garbage.

There are still gangsters who continue to throw feces and some even actively ask the police to arrest them, acting like heroes of the people. Maslow's fourth level needs are greatly satisfied.

The MTR has become a laughing stock throughout Hong Kong.

……

In the midst of this chaos,
Tuesday, it's here.

The time for a new round of Legislative Council meetings has finally arrived.

This time, the whole of Hong Kong is paying attention.

Early in the morning, reporters from ATV, TVB and more than 20 other media outlets surrounded the entrance of the Legislative Council building.

ATV even brought a news car to broadcast the event live. All Hong Kong citizens can watch the event through ATV.

Even on weekdays, there are still many citizens turning on TV to watch.

The host Le Huizhen was full of passion:
"Look everyone... Here comes Mr. John, the chairman of our Legislative Council..."

"Councilman Guan Zu is here... What will he do in the meeting room today?"

"This is the Chairman of the Transport Committee..."

"This is Chairman Chen from the Finance Committee..."

"Look... our key person - who's here... It's the protagonist of this incident, Mr. Tang, the chairman of the MTR board...!"

"Mr. Tang, can we interview you... Regarding the price increase, do you..."

Tang Xin had a gloomy face, and with his secretary clearing the way, he rushed out of the reporters' blockade and entered the Legislative Council building.

He actually didn't want to come.

but!

Hong Kong law stipulates that if you are requested by the Legislative Council to attend a hearing, you must attend.

As an important legislative body in Hong Kong Island, the Legislative Council has the power to supervise and investigate government-related affairs, including requiring government officials and personnel of relevant agencies to undergo hearings.

If you don't come, it means you are in contempt of the law and will face legal proceedings and bear corresponding legal responsibilities, such as fines, travel restrictions, etc.

Then, the chairman of the Consumer Council arrived.

Then the Director of Transport arrived.

Both of them were constantly surrounded by reporters at the scene for interviews, and were almost oral sexed, looking very embarrassed.

……

11 points,
The Legislative Council meeting officially begins.

All legislators were present.

MTR Chairman Tang, Consumer Council Chairman, Transport Director... three people were present.

John opened the speech:
"Okay, let's get started..."

"The first topic today is about the MTR... Councillor Kwan, you go first."

Members of the House, no objection.

Today, they came to watch the show and see Guan Zu scolding people.

As long as we change our mindset, this meeting will be quite interesting.

Since you can't resist, just try your best to enjoy it!
However, the chairman of MTR, Mr. Tang, the chairman of the Consumer Council, and the director of Transport were a little confused.

No,

Why did Guan Zu start this?

Hey, Mr. John, where is your authority? Shouldn't you be in charge of the entire meeting?
"Thank you, Master..."

Guan Zu nodded slightly, then looked around and looked at Chairman Zeng of the Transport Affairs Committee and Chairman Chen of the Finance Committee...

The chairmen of the Transport and Finance committees bowed their heads.

Finally, Guan Zu looked at the chairman of the Consumer Council, the Director of the Transport Department, and the chairman of MTR Corporation, Mr. Tang.

The chairman of the Consumer Council, the Director of the Transport Department, and the chairman of MTR Corporation, Mr. Tang, sneered at Guan Zu.

who do you think You Are?

Do you really think that legislators can step on our heads and shit on us?

Guan Zu chuckled and said, "Chairman, Vice-Chairman, and everyone, before the meeting begins, I must first mention one thing - based on Hong Kong Island's laws, Legislative Council meetings can disclose all matters other than those related to Hong Kong Island's security, company secrets, and personal privacy."

"Given that this meeting has attracted the attention of millions of Hong Kong citizens, I would like to propose that we invite TV reporters and photographers to be present during the entire meeting. After the meeting, the TV station will disclose the content of the meeting to the whole of Hong Kong. Of course, if there are inappropriate parts, our Legislative Council has the right to delete the clips."

"Master, Vice Master, do you agree with my proposal?"

John: “Agreed.”

Vice President William: “Agreed.”

Humph, you told the MTR not to give me money, so now don’t blame me for standing idly by.

MTR Chairman Tang's expression changed: "I object!"

"be opposed to?"

Guan Zu sneered: "Who do you think you are? This is the Legislative Council, not the MTR. Please respect the Legislative Council's procedures!"

President Tang: “…………”

His face turned blue and white.

Guan Zu: "Since the host and vice host agree, please ask the staff to invite the ATV reporters and photographers in."

Liang Shuyi raised her hand: "TVB reporters and photographers can also come in."

Guan Zu nodded: "Okay."

quickly,

ATV's Le Huizhen and Dui Chuanchang walked in carrying cameras, looking excited.

TVB followed suit.

Position your camera.

Chairman of the Consumer Council, Director of the Transport Department, Chairman of the MTR Corporation Tang: “………………”

His face was ugly.

If the camera comes in, they won't be able to say a lot of things.

They may look bright and beautiful on the outside, but they are actually just rats. Rats cannot stand the light of day and once they are exposed to the light of day they will be easily condemned and beaten by everyone.

This is also the reason why Guan Zu has always adhered to the principle of "being upright and aboveboard".

As long as I am honest and upright, I will be invulnerable. As long as I follow public opinion, I will be invincible.

Even the Governor of Hong Kong is no exception!

Chairman John: "Ahem~~~Okay, the TV reporters are coming in, let's start the meeting..."

In front of the camera, he maintained his authority: I am not a puppet!

"Councilman Guan, let's get started."

Guan Zu: "Yes, Master John!"

Guan Zu's gaze stopped on the Director of the Transport Department.

Guan Zu: "Director Li of the Transport Department..."

The Commissioner for Transport felt a tightness in his heart.

coming! !
Guan Zu: "I want to ask you a few questions... First, have you ever taken the subway?"

Transport Director: “I’ve ridden it!”

He lied without hesitation.

Guan Zu curled his lips and said, "Have you ever taken the subway? Your home is in Happy Valley, and the Transport Department is next to Central Plaza. There is no subway in between. I'm curious why you took the subway?"

The Director of Transportation chuckled: "Mr. Guan, do I need your approval to take the subway? I take the subway to other places, too."

Anyway, you have no evidence that I have never sat there.

What are you doing to me?

Guan Zu did not dwell on this question and continued to ask, "Since Director Li took the subway, he should know that the subway itself is too expensive, so there are not many passengers and the carriage is at least half empty."

"The subway is clearly a public welfare facility and should be responsible for providing convenience to the public. However, not many people take the subway because the price is too high."

"Well, as the Director of the Transportation Department, what do you have to say?"

After Guan Zu finished speaking, the councillors in the room did not make much movement.

Instead, Tan Meili, Ahua and others were stunned and looked at each other.

The Director of the Transport Department said: "With fewer people, the public can enjoy better services. What's the problem with that?"

Guan Zu sneered, "Very good, from what you said, I can tell that you have never taken the subway. Let me tell you the current situation of the subway: the three subway lines, every day, every trip, the number of people is very large, there is no such thing as 'half of the carriage is empty'!"

Director of Transport: “…………”

Only then did I realize that I had been deceived by Guan Zu!
His face suddenly turned pale.

"Bang~~~"

At this moment, Guan Zu slammed the table.
"Director Li, this is a Legislative Council meeting. Please respect the authority of the Legislative Council and stop talking nonsense!"

"This is not the place for you to show off your eloquence!"

There was an unquestionable firmness in Guan Zu's tone.

"Please answer the following questions honestly!"

"First of all, the subway's service target is the general public, not you upper-class people who own luxury cars and have drivers driving them every day. Therefore, the price of the subway should fully take into account the economic capabilities of the general public!"

Guan Zu raised his voice, and every word he spoke was powerful.

"I would like to ask why the Transport Department approved the MTR to continue raising its fares when the MTR fares are so high?"

“What is the basis for your approval?”

"Director Li, please answer this question for me!"

Director Li opened his mouth but was speechless for a long time.

You say the price is not high?
After ATV and newspapers continuously reported various data during this period, there is a consensus among the people of Hong Kong - the MTR fares are very expensive!
So, he can't use this excuse.

Guan Zu snorted coldly and continued to press: "Why, you can't answer? Or do you have no reasonable basis at all, and just approve it casually, without caring about the lives of the citizens?"

His voice echoed in the conference room.

"Do you know how many families have to cut back on other living expenses because of this unreasonable price increase?"

"And what about you? You sit in spacious and bright offices, enjoying generous treatment, but you turn a blind eye to the suffering of the citizens."

"The responsibilities of the Transport Department are to protect the travel rights of citizens, to supervise the reasonable operation of the MTR, and to supervise whether its prices affect people's livelihood. But what have you done?"

Guan Zu spoke sternly and harshly. Director Li and the chairman of the Consumer Commission were intimidated by his aura for a moment, and there was silence in the meeting room.

On the other hand, MTR chef Tang also felt for the first time that Guan Zu... seemed to be more "ferocious" than he had imagined!
This boy should not be underestimated!
Director Li of the Transport Department also realized at this moment that he had no way of fighting against Guan Zu in this kind of situation and on this kind of away field.

Then there is only one way left - pass the buck!!

He calmed himself down and said, "Regarding the approval issue, the MTR submitted a detailed cost report, and then the people under the Transport Department conducted a series of assessments and studies. I also made the decision based on the research results of my subordinates."

Guan Zu pressed on: "So, you think it was the people below who didn't do a good job of research? And then they misled you?"

Director Li: “Yes!”

Since you're going to sell it, just sell it cleanly.

A leader who cannot pass on responsibilities is not a good leader.

Guan Zu: "Very good, then you can tell everyone in front of the camera that will be shown to the whole Hong Kong, is there any problem with the Transport Department's approval?"

Director Li decisively admitted his mistake: "If there is a problem, I will go back immediately and conduct self-inspection and self-correction. In three days, I will hold a press conference and give the public a satisfactory explanation!"

Guan Zu: "Okay... there is another question. Citizens are dissatisfied with the prices and have complained to the Transport Department. But what about your Transport Department? You are slow to respond and completely ignore their urgent demands. After so much time, have you organized a hearing where citizens can really express their opinions? Have you actively collected and fed back citizens' opinions?"

Director Li bowed his head and said, "No... I will definitely review the complaint channels and give the citizens an explanation!"

Guan Zu's tone softened a little: "Okay! Director Li, please sit down!"

Since the Director of Transport has given in and is willing to give an explanation to the citizens, there is no need for Guan Zu to keep pursuing him.

Because he has another most important goal.

MTR!

At this time, Tang Xin, the chairman of the MTR, clenched his fists, glared at Director Li, and cursed in his heart: "You are a piece of shit! You knelt down so quickly! You are a coward!"

"Chairman Liu!" Guan Zu's eyes passed over Tang Xin and looked at Chairman Liu of the Consumer Affairs Committee.

Master Liu's heart skipped a beat and sweat broke out on his forehead.

Guan Zu just displayed a terrifying aura, which brought Director Li, who had called him last night and said that he wanted Guan Zu to "see how powerful we are," to his knees.

Now it was my turn, and before Guan Zu could even finish his spray, I felt my legs go weak.

The Consumer Commission is far less powerful than the Transport Department.

"Councilman Guan~~~"

Chairman Liu forced a smile.

Guan Zu picked up a document and said:

"According to the information I have investigated, the chairman of the Consumer Commission is appointed by the Chief Secretary, and when appointing, a variety of conditions will be taken into consideration, such as the candidate's knowledge and experience in consumer rights protection, business, law, public affairs and other fields..."

"And Chairman Liu is a leader in the field of public affairs, so he was appointed as the Chairman of the Consumers' Commission."
