301 Devil's Temptation
Before Ge Lianghong was about to leave office, he was able to take charge of the Department of Administration and also manage the Department of Finance, which was equivalent to declaring that Bai Liji was the next governor of Hong Kong.
After all, it is almost impossible for the regime to seize financial power and under the influence of British culture. There is only one exception, that is, those who are about to serve as the governor of Hong Kong need to be familiar with the operation of these two important departments before taking office before they can "make exceptions".
Compared with Ge Lianghong, who is "extremely smart", Bai Liji not only has relatively thick hair, but also has a greedy heart.
As far as Zhou Wenqiang knows, Ge Bo, who had already taken office in Hong Kong four years ago, was always a little transparent during Ge Lianghong's administration. However, after Bai Liji took office, in just a few years, this corruption that was famous for the four major detectives for a long time began to be prosperous. He was soon promoted to the Governor-General of the Hong Kong Royal Police Force. At the end of 1958, he began to take charge of the position of deputy commander-in-chief of the New Territories and Kowloon District. His appearance not only allowed Liu Fu, who was powerful, to be checked and balanced, but also opened the "era of corrupt officials" in the Hong Kong police circle.
Interestingly, Gerber was officially transferred to the deputy commander-in-chief of Kowloon District in 1971, and was targeted by the newly established Independent Commission Against Corruption shortly after the transfer. That is to say, most of his "greed" behavior was implemented when he was taking charge of the New Territories and the deputy commander-in-chief of Kowloon District, but at this time the nominee commander-in-chief of Liu Fu, who was lower than his police rank...
A ghost who is both responsible and has a deputy position can become a corruption generation in Hong Kong. Even the four major inspectors were cultivated by him, and they acted more unscrupulously than Liu Fu. What does this mean?
Zhou Wenqiang looked at Bai Liji, who had a deep eye socket in front of him and a handsome appearance, and sighed in his heart.
Now Bai Liji is Ge Lianghong's assistant and the governor of Hong Kong. In order to make Ge Lianghong's perfect ending, he will be his alliance and good partner.
But it won't take too long, Bai Liji and the interest groups he represents will become his biggest opponents!
After looking at Bai Yue'e, who was "very happy" with Bai Liji's Chinese wife on the balcony outside, Zhou Wenqiang shook his head secretly.
Just over ten minutes ago, Bai Liji's wife had just accepted a diamond necklace brought by Bai Yue'e.
In order to crack down on Li Zhiheng, he took charge of the real estate of Hong Kong Island, stabilized the real estate market in Hong Kong Island, and deal with the Hong Kong Island change soon, is this considered his own "brand for the people"?
Zhou Wenqiang glanced at Bai Liji and thought to himself, "Little thing, how much do you eat today? I'll let you spit it out sooner or later."
If we evaluate Bai Liji objectively, this future governor of Hong Kong would still do something. During his tenure, he realized the financial independence of the Hong Kong government, vigorously promoted public housing, built ponds, and improved people's livelihood. His political achievements were outstanding.
But he is used to filling his pockets with one hand, improving people's livelihood and improving his life often takes a two-pronged approach; it is precisely because of his similar scent that he has incredible energy when dealing with the Kowloon districts of the New Territories.
Zhou Wenqiang is doing great things without paying attention to details, Ge Lianghong is the current official, but Bai Liji is in charge; and this time is different from the last time, once the new legislative proposal is submitted to the Legislative Council, the Legislative Council will definitely ask Bai Liji for his opinion. This guy's statement will determine whether he can get the support of the Hong Kong Legislative Council, thus completely shattering the Lee Group!
"Mr. Zhou... Although Sir Ge personally explained this matter, it is still difficult for me to do. You should know that if I help you persuade the Legislative Council and pass this interim bill, it will offend many people..."
Bai Liji smiled and slowly fiddled with his walnut pipe, picked out a few rough cigarette stems from it, and gently tugged between his thumb and index finger: "'Mr. Li' is the former president of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce. He has a strong wealth and power. Even if he has strong connections in the British ancestral land, he has a certain influence. Not to mention that there are other real estate developers besides him... If you were me, I would probably not be willing to offend these rich people easily, right?"
"Haha, it seems that there is some reason for Jazz to think this way. I really force you?"
Zhou Wenqiang stared at his slowly moving fingers and chuckled.
"But I have heard people say that if there is enough benefit, God can take risks for you. So, let's talk about benefits?"
"Is it profitable? This is really interesting... I'll just say that Mr. Zhou must be a smart person if he can have the situation today."
Bai Liji snapped his fingers gently, looked at his wife who was talking to Bai Yue'e on the balcony outside, and smiled: "Jenny hasn't smiled so happily for a long time. I guess she must like the little gift Mrs. Zhou gave her very much."
The diamond necklace worth tens of thousands of Hong Kong dollars is just a small gift in his mouth.
"Haha, diamonds, gold, Franklin? These are all good things. But I think that in the present or in the coming year, the Jazz doesn't need these."
Zhou Wenqiang glanced at him and smiled and said, "Please allow me to make a bold guess first. I guess Sir Ge will leave within one year, and you will be the undisputed next Hong Kong Governor. So, what is the most important thing for a newly appointed Hong Kong Governor?"
Bo Liji blinked and said, "What is it?"
In fact, he really wanted to tell Zhou Wenqiang that I also need diamond gold and Franklin very much. You really don’t have to think too much. But Zhou Wenqiang’s tempting tone made him very curious, and he really wanted to hear what this legendary Mr. Zhou would say.
He is also a fan of Hepburn. Recently, it is rumored that Hepburn and Zhou Wenqiang have some special relationships that are not worthy of being spoken by others, which makes him both envious and admired and a little jealous. If Zhou Wenqiang cannot satisfy him, it will be difficult for him to guarantee that he will not stand on Li Zhiheng's side.
After all, Ge Lianghong's resignation is a foregone conclusion, and he is not the "honest person" who followed Ge Lianghong back then.
"The special status of Hong Kong Island has made the British ancestral land pay more and more attention. Don't you, the new official, want to amazed the British ancestral land and the queen to look at it when you take office? If you have such brilliant political achievements, I think you will become the most outstanding Hong Kong governor in history..."
Zhou Wenqiang smiled and said, "Even after you leave office in the future, this political achievement will make you shine and go to a larger stage and a higher position. Isn't this more attractive than diamonds and gold?"
"Make the ancestral land amaze, the queen looks sideways?"
Bai Liji was stunned and said, "This is impossible! Hong Kong Island is much behind the British ancestral land. No matter how good I do, it is difficult to produce such an effect."
"Zhou, you may not know that although our young queen is beautiful and wise, she is a little younger after all. She is still a romantic little girl. Do you think she will value so-called political achievements? God, maybe ten thousand colorful hot air balloons floating over Hong Kong Island can attract her more attention."
The silly White Queen of Yili, who ascended the throne four years ago, is actually thirty years old this year, but the British ghosts still like to call her a "romantic little girl". Even if it is Bo Liji, a scheming guy, when she mentions His Majesty, she is full of pampering and love.
"Jazz is wrong. With me, it is not difficult for Hong Kong Island to surpass the British ancestral land in some ways. For example, I will surprise Her Majesty the young and romantic queen to discover that Hong Kong Island is a colorful place full of romantic stories, and in some ways, Hong Kong Island has already walked in front of the British ancestral land..."
