My Lord, you need to stand up!

Chapter 913 This person is truly an expert.
Rang Weidong didn't shy away at all: "There's no North, I'm just a Chinese, an ordinary Chinese businessman."

Qin Yuye translated it with trepidation.

The Foreign Affairs Director looked at the vibrant basketball court, his face expressionless: "An ordinary businessman? Using hundreds of people to injure someone on Hong Kong soil? This is now under the jurisdiction of the Great Ying Empire. I can arrest you at any time!"

The wife could barely fulfill her duties by clinging to her husband's arms.

This only made Wei Dong's tone more calm and firm: "Go ahead and arrest me. I'm a legitimate businessman and I'm very rich. I'll hire lawyers, members of parliament, the governor, and use every legal means I can to fight this case. I can even broadcast the entire case live on television for the whole of Hong Kong and the world to see. Let's see who ends up looking pathetic!"

Only two uniformed men stood proudly at the back, and they couldn't help but glance at the young man's back.

Qin Yuye was like an inflatable doll, somehow managing to stand on his own.

The section chief gave a snort: "Is this how you break the agreement?"

Wei Dong shook his head: "I don't know what agreement there is. I'm here to do business and live. Have I violated any laws or regulations? All my actions are reasonable and legal. On the contrary, you have not provided me with the most stable and safe business environment. This is your dereliction of duty! What kind of era is this? You still allow these gang-related behaviors to permeate the lives of citizens. Is London like this? Your control is really not very good."

Accusations immediately followed: "You're using illegal immigrants to illegally assemble people. I can send people out every day to catch those sewer rats!"

This made his wife a little nervous.

Wei Dong, however, became increasingly relaxed and at ease: "Illegal immigrants? Where did they come from? Didn't you let them in? Get this straight. If you really let it go unchecked, you can fill the entire city of Hong Kong with people in a single day, believe it or not. Don't try to pull these underhanded tricks. I'm open to discussing everything in the open, but if the police won't protect me, I'll find a way to protect myself. Don't force me to break the rules!"

They didn't get bogged down in historical details with him: "What exactly do you want here?!"

Wei Dong pointed to the basketball court and said, "When I do business, construction, and provide employment opportunities, am I eliminating social problems? When I promote basketball and give out weekly bonuses to young basketball enthusiasts, am I solving a persistent public security problem? Do I have even the slightest bit of malice or harm towards you?"

This is what makes Wei Dong the least culpable.

The other party finally softened their tone, but still repeated, "What exactly do you want from here?"

Wei Dong softened his tone: "I know Hong Kong is a very complex place, like a tree growing in a turbulent river. Not to mention the constant flow of water and the impact of rocks, even the course of the river can change. But only the Hong Kong police are ensuring that this tree is not uprooted. We don't talk about politics or affiliation. What the police do is protect the citizens and maintain order. That's why I have special respect for the Hong Kong police. I haven't caused them any trouble, have I?"

It took many years for many people to realize that police officers, like professional athletes, might just be doing a job.

It is certainly related to one's place of origin, skin color, and even stance, and there are certainly various motives involved, but this is something that can be fought for.

Instead of immediately classifying someone as part of the enemy camp simply because they wear a crown badge and proclaim their loyalty to the Queen.

Especially in the context of Hong Kong films over the years, the police are often portrayed as bad characters.

But in the end, it turned out that the Hong Kong police were the mainstay.

They work hard for this city.

Even though two of the three uniformed men standing on the terrace right now are white.

The way people look at this young man has to change.

Whoever interacts with them will definitely feel the difference.

Soften your tone and be more sincere: "So what exactly do you want to do?"

Wei Dong calmly pointed in the direction of Yau Tsim Mong: "I've said it before, I'm here to do business and construction. I will build the best and largest stadium in Asia in Yau Ma Tei, which will create at least several thousand jobs. That's my territory. If anyone dares to collect protection money there, won't they be arrested and handed over to the authorities by my security guards? Aren't I the best partner?"

Pointing to the basketball court again: "Poor security is often due to too many idle people. Hong Kong's economy is doing well, yet gangs are rampant, which means someone is pushing and directing it. I don't want to get involved in a chaotic situation of gang fighting gangs. Basketball is healthy and positive, and it encourages all young people to participate. Am I also trying to reduce the difficulty of your work?"

Exactly one year ago, right after the Lunar New Year, Wei Dong started the basketball club at a community charity court on Peak Road in Tsim Sha Tsui.

On the first day, the noise was so loud that it disturbed the peace, and the police were called to the scene. Arthur was called to the scene.

In fact, everything Wei Dong was asked to do was under the watchful eyes of the police.

He still operates in the same way he did in mainland China; extreme honesty remains the best approach.

Even though Lao Fang had warned him that Hong Kong was the place with the most mixed spies, agents, and military intelligence personnel in the world.

Let's see who can put together the largest group.

This is where Cheng Lang's ruthlessness in suggesting that he take advantage of South Asian boys becomes apparent.

In Hong Kong, the power struggle between China and foreign countries largely boils down to who will sacrifice cannon fodder to achieve their goals and who will be the first to succumb to the pressure.

As a result, they've chosen the lowest-class South Asian guy to be at the center of the storm.

If something really big were to break out, the Chinese community would feel almost no pressure. But the lives of the untouchables are also lives, and once their numbers reach a certain level, the pressure would definitely come from the police or foreign authorities.

Silence fell on the terrace.

I wonder if anyone has ever dealt with them like this before. Certainly no one has been this direct and honest, even offering collaborative solutions.

Even a reckless Zhang Fei might have retorted, "Who the hell gave you the right to talk about cooperation?"

But the more scheming a person is, the more likely they are to wonder if this person is a real figure wielding some kind of magical sword.

The key point is that the angle Wei Dong chose was both bizarre and incredibly convincing.

The boys from both sides of the border and the boys from the mainland are already quite familiar with each other. The teammates on the basketball court don't consider so many complicated positions; they only focus on playing basketball and getting along.

While Kemp was slacking off on the sidelines, Ma Jian took the lead and played center forward, which was a super crushing victory for him.

Then Zhang Jinsong was moved to the high post, that is, to receive the ball at the top of the three-point arc.

The other three agile black-and-white characters weave in and out of the group in various ways.

Zhang Jinsong, relying on his height and long arms, was like a watchtower, passing the ball to them with steady, accurate, and powerful layups.

Extremely efficient!

Lu Bin kept shouting instructions to Zhang Jinsong on how to pass the ball.

It's obvious that the tactics Wei Dong mentioned to him during the pre-Spring Festival exhibition match have been figured out and Zhang Jinsong is now starting to practice them.

Standing nearly two meters tall, lean and agile, he's a great point guard, though ball handling might be a bit difficult. His passing vision is truly excellent, and he can also drive and shoot on his own. He's also a tenacious defender.

Almighty!

Speaking of basketball legend Michael Jordan, he was this height and build. Of course, the players he faced were generally much taller, so he was still considered "short" and played shooting guard.

That would make it even more versatile.

So, standing on the terrace, it looked like a group of young people of different colors—yellow, black, and white—working together to deliver a brilliant performance, winning thunderous applause from the police officers watching.

It is very symbolic.

She slowly began, "So, what are you going to do next?"

Wei Dong seemed to be talking about basketball: "Soon, the HK team will definitely start a warm-up tour in Europe and America. Only by training with high-intensity opponents can they prepare for the Olympic Games. I am very confident that they will achieve good results. The TV station will definitely film the whole process to make it a source of pride for HK and encourage more young people to take to the basketball court instead of being gangsters on the streets."

They had no choice but to nod: "Actually, the basketball craze this year has led to a significant decrease in street disputes and the number of people involved. So, what are you going to do about the South Asian refugees?"

Qin Yuye certainly didn't expect that the basketball her husband was involved in was not only a business, but had now become a bargaining chip.

Even those South Asian laborers crammed into corners of the docks and whose homes were hidden away in remote corners became a significant factor in the investigation.

“Hong Kong needs heavy manual laborers, right? If local young people can’t do it, then only South Asian refugees will be able to do it. Unless the police can completely eliminate the refugees, they will be the main force on construction sites. As for protecting security, I can’t bring thousands of heavily armed veterans from across the bay, can I?”

The police were obviously aware of what had happened a few months ago on the sea between the three locations.

They probably assumed he was there representing some kind of status.

I actually felt more relaxed.

Because Wei Dong was clearly a guy who could communicate well: "Then you need to restrict the activity area of ​​the South Asian refugees."

As expected, I received a positive reply: "No problem. Apart from the sports city construction site in Yau Ma Tei, we'll focus on the TV station construction site in Sha Tin. I even want to move them all away from the clusters in Yuen Long and Tuen Mun, so they don't swarm out like mice!"

Yuen Long and Tuen Mun are areas in western Hong Kong that face the sea. They are remote, sparsely populated, and relatively poor.

While it's unlikely that refugees will be brought over in open boats, they can easily be met by local villagers if they come ashore hidden among cargo ships, fishing boats, smuggling vessels, or other similar vessels.

If Wei Dong is unwilling to accept so many refugees, and they are all moved to the east, the source of support will be greatly reduced.

So while some people might be disgusting and turn a blind eye to this, in practice, it's a real headache for the police.

It's not difficult to capture and repatriate refugees; the real challenge is having someone help them integrate seamlessly into daily life, which makes it much harder to disperse them.

Hearing this, their eyes lit up: "Can you do it?"

The former security guard was very skilled: "Our construction site is going to install electronic checkpoints, which will record who enters and who exits, and we can know at any time how many people are clocking in for meals and work. It's like managing these people's registration records. If... I mean if, where in Sha Tin is there any unmanaged vacant land where workers' families can move there to live together, we can also manage these checkpoints. As for how to do it in the future, that's all under control."

Upon hearing this, the three of them exclaimed, "Wow, these are real experts!"

They even assumed he was some kind of expert who had actually been sent there.
