Hong Kong Island Old Events

Police Commissioner "Yu Yunhua" was wearing a green uniform with a crown on his epaulettes. He had the rank of director. He opened the door and entered the conference room. He walked to the long table and sat down at the head of the table. The accompanying secretary of the director sat behind him and opened his pen. Prepare to record the proceedings.

"Wow!"

The two deputy directors, four senior assistant directors, and six assistant directors present all stood up and shouted: "Sir!!!"

"Sit down." Yu Yunhua has a capable face, a shaved head, mature facial features, a strong physique, and a strong military aura about him.

Yi Fu, Xin Shiwei, Xu Shicheng and others immediately sat down, straightened their backs, and stared at the superior officer.

Nowadays, as the New Territories area is temporarily under the jurisdiction of the Kowloon Region, there is neither a Chief Inspector, nor a Senior Assistant Director, Assistant Director and other ranks.

A total of 13 people at the Commissioner level and above in the Hong Kong Police Force were present. The number of seats will be half less than in the future. In later generations, there will be as many as 12 Assistant Commissioners, who will respectively manage the Land Region, Marine Police Region, and the General Administration Department. director.

Now that the police force has fewer people, the seats are simple, and the work is more efficient. After the officers sat down, the deputy director of operations reported on the crime rate, detection rate, major cases and other matters since the beginning of the year.

The Deputy Director of Management then reported on the New Year’s budgets for each district and department. Subsequently, the Senior Assistant Director of each district reported on the situation in the jurisdiction. The Commissioner of Police also informed the Hong Kong Governor’s schedule and asked the operational departments to prepare for security work. More than 40 minutes later Seeing that the meeting was about to end, Deputy Director of Management "Mai Jingtao" handed over a document and said loudly: "Sir Yu, this is a document about the reorganization of the serious crime team of the police force."

Yu Yunhua frowned slightly, as if he was a little surprised. He turned to look at McIntosh, took the document from his secretary, and opened it to read without saying a word.

McIntosh reported: "In recent years, serious crimes have occurred frequently on Hong Kong Island, such as the gold shop robbery that occurred late last year. The criminals exchanged fire with the police in Central, but they fled to Kowloon to commit crimes. Six people, In the end, more than a dozen innocent casualties were caused, and two police officers were killed and six police officers were injured before being shot and arrested."

"Sir Yu, the police force now needs a new department, led by a strong person, so that it can suppress serious crimes. Otherwise, the negative impact of serious crimes will greatly harm the business of Hong Kong Island. environment, hindering the development of Hong Kong Island."

"I propose that the Commissioner of Police establish a Chinese Serious Crime Team and recruit elites from all Hong Kong's criminal teams to join. I hope the Commissioner will approve it."

Yu Yunhua closed the document and glanced at everyone present. He saw that the senior officials from the government faction were excited and looking forward to it, while the senior officials from the military faction had solemn expressions and gloomy eyes.

With the political acumen of everyone present, they immediately realized that the Crime Squad was a government-sponsored move to steal the power of the Chinese Criminal Division and seize control of the lowest level of the police force. Assuming that the Chinese Crime Division was established, it would have been The Chinese criminal team under the control of the military department will lose power and can easily become a lackey of the serious crime team.

The art of power!

Who doesn’t understand?

At the same time, after the government faction has grasped the power of the lower-level Chinese agents, they can begin to implement the governor's orders to the end.

What’s the point of keeping the military faction with the Governor after that?

Three to five years later, all the military and police officers were wiped out, becoming a past that no one will remember in the torrent of history.

You must know that the Hong Kong Governor cannot use people sent by the army. It is not that the Hong Kong Governor cannot issue a letter of appointment, but that the police cannot be called upon because of the lack of military personnel.

What is the police force today?

Most of the front-line staff are Chinese, and the second- and third-tier management are the Gui Lao. Regardless of the fact that the Gui Lao is usually majestic and merciless in collecting money, in fact, if he wins the Chinese, he will win the world!

The government faction has never considered how to overthrow the Commissioner of Police, but as long as they gain the power of the lower-level Chinese and the Hong Kong Governor easily writes a document behind his back, the military faction will retire honorably.

This is the true structure of power!

Therefore, this document establishing a serious crime team is not taking away the power of the criminal team, but taking away the power of the police commissioner and the entire military faction!

Yu Yunhua naturally put down the document and said aloud: "Sir Mai's consideration is reasonable. The first task of the police force is indeed to control the occurrence of serious crimes. However, since the crime team is mainly Chinese, does it have overlapping powers with the criminal team? ?”

Of course, McIntosh knew that the major crimes unit and the criminal unit had overlapping powers... but the overlap was not within the system, but in gray power.

Because the power within the system can be subdivided, but gray power cannot. Everyone has to eat more and occupy more. Once the serious crime team is established, it will definitely take away the jobs of the criminal team.

But this is his purpose!

The first priority of the police force is to control the underground power and make a lot of money. Otherwise, why would the people sent by the government work so hard?

When you become the police chief, you just work part-time, and all the money is given to you? What a beautiful thought!

Underground interests are one and the other side of official interests. Isn’t it because the military faction wants to seize the power of the police force to receive hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars every year?

McIntosh replied sternly: "Sir, the crime team is responsible for serious cases, such as murder cases with bad influence and cruel methods, such as large-scale arson cases, illegal gatherings and smashing cases, robberies, serial murders, etc... More The criminal unit should be equipped with more powerful firepower, but its functions are different from that of the criminal unit in handling widespread and frequent crimes."

The person in charge of the Kowloon Region, Senior Assistant Director Xu Shicheng, suddenly interrupted: "Sir Mai, equipping Chinese police officers with semi-automatic firepower and large-caliber weapons must be carefully considered."

"The impact of this measure is far-reaching and is by no means just a matter of a few criminals."

Yu Yunhua also said: "According to the document, the Crime Division is responsible for major cases in Hong Kong, and the Criminal Division should cooperate when handling cases. Doesn't it mean that the Crime Division has jurisdiction and uses the power of detectives from the Criminal Division in Hong Kong?"

"This is not an overlapping of functions. It can be regarded as the establishment of a higher-level department. Should the department be given an inspector-level police rank?"

"A powerful Chinese inspector on the job?"

McIntosh is not afraid: "To curb the occurrence of serious crimes, it is necessary to improve the equipment of the Chinese police. Many innocent people have sacrificed their lives because of insufficient firepower. What's more, underground arms trading is frequent in Hong Kong, and Haojiang next door is even more semi-active. How many people can there be in the crime squad if arms are openly traded? These guns will only bring peace to Hong Kong Island, but will not disrupt the order of Hong Kong Island."

"As for giving Chinese inspector-level police titles, do you think it's very high?" McIntosh asked back, but he hit the nail on the head: "Can you not give them in the future?"

The expressions of the officials present changed slightly and they were unable to refute. Based on the height they stood at and their understanding of the Hong Kong governor's governance, the power of the Chinese will continue to rise in the future.

Assistant Director Yifu immediately stated: "I support Sir Mai's opinion."

Xu Shicheng immediately raised his hand: "I object!"

He stood up and supported the table with both hands, stared at McIntosh and said: "What you have to do in the future does not mean you have to do it now. Timing is very important!"

Mai Jingtao smiled coldly and ignored it. Xu Shicheng's words were a warning.

Just because the Hong Kong government faction on Hong Kong Island will be able to take over in the future does not mean that they can do so now!

The military faction hasn't made enough, and it's not enough, so it wants to take over? Show your strength and prove yourself! Silly boy!

Yu Yunhua said: "Okay, according to the police force regulations, if there are different opinions at the division chief level meeting, a simple vote will be held. If the vote passes, the implementation will be allowed. If the vote fails, a constitutional committee level meeting can be held to expand the scope of the meeting and vote again. .”

"Those who support the establishment of a major crime unit can raise their hands."

McIntosh adjusted his glasses and raised his hand decisively. Three senior executives including Yifu and Dai Leihua raised their hands. Yu Yunhua glanced at everyone present. After waiting for a moment, he closed the document and handed it to his secretary. When he stood up, He closed his suit and said, "Let's talk about it next time."

Anders, Xu Shicheng, Xin Shiwei and other military commanders immediately stood up and followed the police commissioner out of the conference room. McIntosh and others were left with stiff faces and a heavy atmosphere. Judging from the speeches and positions of both parties in the meeting just now, The military faction and the Hong Kong government faction have reached the point of becoming tense.

When McIntosh left his seat, he only said one sentence: "Ifu, let your detective Hua prepare. If you want to get the position of the crime team, you have to kill it for us."

"Yes, sir." Kowloon District Assistant Director Yifu followed closely and responded in a deep voice.

…

In Shek Kip Mei Uk Estate, construction vehicles from Li Shun Real Estate came and went, and hundreds of workers were distributed at eight locations to build the foundations for the first batch of resettlement buildings.

After the Oriental Daily published the story that Island Land was maliciously obstructing the progress of the project, Island Land stopped inviting people to cause trouble.

Naturally, the help of Chief Inspector Gao Yongsheng was indispensable during this period, but Yiqun's tricks of placing wreaths, mortuary coffins, and playing suonas at the entrance of the Land Company also made the Land Company very disgusted.

After all, Land is the leading real estate company on Hong Kong Island. It started by building docks and reclaiming land from the sea. It is not a barefoot business at all.

He can disgust others, and others can disgust him. The more obscene the tricks, the more effective they are, but they can only guarantee temporary peace.

Because this kind of trick is not unexpected by Boss Huo, nor is it impossible to do. It can be solved for a while, but it cannot be solved forever.

Island Land intends to prevent Chinese-funded companies from entering the real estate industry, and wants to tightly control most of the interests of Hong Kong Island Real Estate in the hands of British-funded companies.

Building resettlement is not very profitable, but for reliable building resettlement projects, Lixin Real Estate can open up the relationship between the top and bottom of the Urban Development Department. In the future, Land will have a strong opponent in government projects. If it gives other Chinese bosses the impression that real estate is not profitable and that the real estate industry is monopolized by British capital, they will be in trouble...

Island Land can remain a semi-monopoly for at least another five years.

This is the purpose of Land Chairman Simon Keswick.

Therefore, in addition to seizing the time to start work, Boss Huo did not have the idea of ​​settling the matter once and for all. If He Dingxian could not solve the problem in a short time, he would have no choice but to go to HSBC to settle the dispute by transferring benefits.

He Dingxian and Boss Huo have the same idea. Island Land will definitely cause trouble again.

At this time, a worker wearing work clothes and a rattan safety helmet held a bag of bulk rice wine, drank it into his stomach with his head raised, and with the strength of the wine, he jumped towards the construction area full of steel bars: "Pfft!"

Six steel bars penetrated his chest, and blood flowed down. He seemed to want to lower his head to look at his stomach, but he lowered his head helplessly. The workers around him seemed stunned, but soon someone shouted: "He's dead!"

"The Dongguan guy is dead!"
