Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 1133: Pulling the Net (Part 2)

"Chief Executive Zeng, you have to be prepared, including mentally." These were the first words Lu Shaohua said.

Lu Shaohua's words seemed a bit incoherent, but in fact, Lu Shaohua was not just saying it casually. Lu Shaohua took out a pack of cigarettes, opened it, and gave one to everyone present. Then he continued, "I suspect that MI5 has arranged agents to lurk in other government departments in Hong Kong. I am talking about hypothetical. Suppose I get the list, and by that time, all the hidden people are exposed, and I will immediately purge them. So, Chief Executive Zeng, you must be mentally prepared."

Chief Executive Tsang is also a smoker. He just took the cigarette handed to him by Lu Shaohua and was about to light it with his lighter, but after hearing what Lu Shaohua said, he paused. It was not that he did not want to light the cigarette, but that he really could not light it.

As Lu Shaohua said, there may be agents lurking in other government departments in Hong Kong. If they are some unimportant departments and not at a very high level, then the election will be a big deal. But what if they are important departments and people in very high positions?

The Hong Kong government is not one of harmony. If Lu Shaohua starts a purge, the consequences can be imagined. By then, the legislators who do not stand on the side of Chief Executive Tsang may jump out to cause trouble. This is also what Chief Executive Tsang is most worried about.

Although Lu Shaohua does not participate in politics, it does not mean that Lu Shaohua does not understand politics, nor does it mean that Lu Shaohua does not understand the Hong Kong government. Therefore, he is very clear about Chief Executive Zeng's concerns. This is also the reason why Lu Shaohua asked Chief Executive Zeng to be mentally prepared.

Being the highest official of the Hong Kong government, it is not as easy as it seems. At least, Chief Executive Tsang has to face pressure from two sides: one is the domestic government, and the other is from Hong Kong locals.

It can be said that if Chief Executive Tsang has done a good job and the domestic government is satisfied, then he will have no problem. However, just because the domestic government is satisfied does not mean that Hong Kong is satisfied. In the final analysis, Chief Executive Tsang is caught in the middle and it is difficult for him to be a human being.

"The purge is impossible to change, but I will never allow chaos in Hong Kong." Lu Shaohua's tone was very calm, but soon, everyone smelled the blood. "At this time, if anyone dares to jump out, I will not hesitate to take action. Of course, I am still very happy to solve it in a peaceful way, but if it cannot be solved in a peaceful way, then you can't blame me for being ruthless."

As a compatriot, there is a sense of closeness to Lu Shaohua, but some people should also be more aware that the incident was caused by Lu Shaohua. When Lu Shaohua cleansed up those hidden agents, while taking revenge, he was also helping the Hong Kong government.

At this time, as Hong Kong people and as Chinese, the first thing we should do is to put aside our prejudices and point our guns at the outside world. If someone uses this matter for their own selfish interests, then Lu Shaohua will naturally not be polite to them.

"Uncle Xiang, a lot of things are bound to happen tonight. Someone has to take responsibility for such a big thing. So, I want to use your Sun Yee On and find some people to take the blame. This will be an explanation to the people and to some people in the government. At the same time, it will be an explanation to those countries that sent out the agents." Lu Shaohua gave three explanations in a row.

Killing three birds with one stone. It is undeniable that this is a plan that kills three birds with one stone. However, this plan has a disadvantage, which is that it may implicate Xiang Huaqiang. Lu Shaohua did not forget to say at the end, "Uncle Xiang, you can refuse, because if you do so, it may implicate you."

"hehe…"

Xiang Huaqiang just laughed, shook his head, and said, "It's been years, I've been in trouble every day, I'm used to it, I'm not afraid of trouble, but it's no problem to find someone to take the blame, someone will come out at the command, but the problem is, what will be their fate after they take the blame."

Yes, we can’t let people die by taking the blame for no reason, right?

Although many young and dangerous men in Hong Kong died after taking the blame for their crimes and were only given a small compensation for settling down, this time is different. Even though there is no death penalty in Hong Kong, taking the blame for such a major crime is extremely bad.

For a moment, Lu Shaohua really didn't think so much. Well, no, it's not that Lu Shaohua didn't think so much, but Lu Shaohua didn't think deeply. He just thought about getting someone to take the blame. As for what to do after taking the blame? Lu Shaohua really didn't think about it.

"I can guarantee this in the name of the Chief Executive. Nothing will happen to them if they come forward to take the blame." Chief Executive Tsang seemed to realize something and spoke out.

Chief Executive Zeng did express his opinion, but to be honest, Xiang Huaqiang really didn't believe him. After all, Chief Executive Zeng was a politician, and Xiang Huaqiang never believed in politicians. Instead, he believed in Lu Shaohua more.

If Lu Shaohua had spoken out at this time, Xiang Huaqiang would not have said much but would have nodded directly. However, when Chief Executive Zeng expressed his opinion, he became suspicious.

"I think it would be better if the National Security Bureau arrested them and then sent them back to the Hong Kong Garrison. I think they will be fine." The head of the National Security Bureau in Hong Kong spoke up.

"You can just arrest them as suspects, and don't disclose the reason for arresting them. Just say it's related to this matter. Then later, turn around and say they eliminated foreign agents and are the heroes who maintained social stability in Hong Kong. There's no problem in giving them an award or something." The major general of the Hong Kong garrison spoke up at this time.

This is a workaround, a way to kill two birds with one stone, and a way to protect the person who takes the blame.

Don't forget, if they come forward and take the blame, people will automatically classify them as serious criminals, and who knows how much they will suffer then. But if they are locked up in the camp of the Hong Kong garrison, the result will be different. Not only will they be free there, they will also not have to worry about being assassinated.

"Wuguo rebelled and became a successful minister." Lu Shaohua smiled and said.

Just as Lu Shaohua said, the final result is that the person who stands up to take the blame will not only not be guilty of any crime, but will be considered a meritorious official. If possible, he may even be awarded a medal or something.

"hehe…"

Xiang Huaqiang also smiled, but his smile was a little stiff, and at the same time, there was a hint of crying and laughing. He could almost imagine what was going to happen next.

A member of a black society eventually became a hero who protected the Communist Party and maintained the stability of Hong Kong. What a ridiculous scene. However, Xiang Huaqiang finally expressed his opinion. "I agree!"

This is a good thing, why not agree, but Lu Shaohua still said something at the end. "If this is the case, then those people will have to behave normally when they come out, and they can't mess around anymore."

"Yeah." Xiang Huaqiang nodded, and finally said, "I'll pay attention to that when I choose people."

"Ok, solved." Lu Shaohua clapped his hands and changed the subject before moving on to the next topic. "Also, I suspect that there may be lurking people among the merchants in Hong Kong, and they may be people in the Chamber of Commerce. If they are verified, I will not be polite, and we cannot let others take over the industries under those people's control!"

Government officials, businessmen, and even some ordinary people may all be hidden agents. When Lu Shaohua wants to purge them, he naturally won't care about your identity and will strike without mercy. However, the subsequent handling is another matter.

If you kill someone, the industry under his control will become ownerless. Er, no, it's not ownerless. As agents, their industries are definitely funded by the people behind them, and if the owner dies, their people behind them will definitely stand up.

But Lu Shaohua didn't want to keep the benefits to himself, so he had to act first and seize those industries before the people behind them could react.

This kind of thing is no different from picking up something for free, so naturally, Ho Ying-tung and others would not object. Well, not only would they not object, they would also welcome it with open arms.

"That's no problem. Jiacheng and I will handle it." Huo Yingdong said immediately, and then he took the initiative to change the subject. "The problem now is your safety and the Phoenix Group. You can be a little more assured about your safety, but you can't take it lightly. The Phoenix Group is facing a big crisis now."

The current situation is very unfavorable to Phoenix Group. It can almost be said that Phoenix Group's overseas business is completely ruined. More importantly, Phoenix Group does not seem to have any intention of saving itself. On the contrary, it is constantly retreating, as if it has accepted its fate.

From a normal person's perspective, Phoenix Group's actions puzzled many people, but people who knew Lu Shaohua did not think so, because Lu Shaohua was not a fool, he would not give up the industry he had worked so hard to build.

Lu Shaohua understood what Huo Yingdong meant and said, "This is the reality. If Phoenix Group does not retreat, it will only suffer greater losses. It is better to take the initiative to retreat and reduce losses. This way, I can free up more money to fight the next battle."

"Of course, giving up is only temporary. With the foundation laid by Phoenix Group, once I win in the end, the reputation of Phoenix Group will be restored. At that time, there may still be people who hold an opposing attitude, but recovery only takes time. After all, human nature is always changeable." Lu Shaohua explained lightly.

Isn't it? Whoever laughs last and wins the final victory will have everything on his side. Even if the Phoenix Group really makes money from the national crisis, Lu Shaohua is the winner. Lu Shaohua can say whatever he wants, including if he wants to say that he does not make money from the national crisis, he has the final say.

Isn't it true that history is always written by the victors?
