Chapter 378

"Yesterday experienced a fierce battle, the gunfight scene building suffered heavy damage..."

"Our station's chairman Mr. Guan gave instructions to allocate 2 million in donations from the Five-Star Charity Company, specifically for house repairs and assistance for citizens to restore their lives..."

Sunday morning,

ATV made a news special on "Post-War Assistance", continuously reporting on the Five-Star Group's assistance actions.

"At the same time, the Five-Star Charity Foundation allocated 1 million for medical subsidies for injured residents."

"At the same time, another 3 million was donated to the police force to provide pensions for the injured and dead police officers."

"Everyone can see... Five-Star Property mobilized from all districts, a total of over 400 employees, are busy in the residential building..."

Five-Star does good deeds, ATV helps promote...

In one word, mutual cooperation.

And the program effect was also very good; this was the time when there were no programs broadcast, and a large number of citizens locked onto ATV, watching Five-Star do good deeds.

All citizens of Hong Kong were naturally full of praise.

"Mr. Guan is really a good person!"

"TVB is just trash, causing such a big disaster, and until now, they haven't seen a single cent donated."

"The gap between TV stations is so big... no, it's the gap between bosses that is so big."

On the ATV side,

Guan Zu's office.

Took stock of this incident.

TVB lost its mind and offended the police force; in the future, news sources from the police force will inevitably be restricted.

And ATV, with Five-Star Property Company and the police force providing news clues in the first instance, news will definitely be able to gradually far exceed TVB.

In terms of news, Guan Zu could foresee that he had already won; next is TV series and variety shows.

Just at this time,

The system reward came.

"In an operation where the police force encircled and suppressed bandits, you used your influence to restore the reputation of the police force, and also allowed residents to receive a large amount of assistance..."

"You received the following rewards:"

"Reward 1: Hong Kong Police Force Approval Rating +5% (Total 12%)!"

"Reward 2: West Kowloon Approval Rating +2% (Total 25%)!"

"Reward 3: In this operation, ATV played an important role, rewarding TV series ratings king scripts 'Justice Pao · 1993 Taiwan Version', 'The File of Justice · 1993 TVB Version', 'Cold Blood Warm Heart · 1996', 'Secrets of the Heart · 1997'..."

Guan Zu was pleasantly surprised.

"Good!"

This is exactly the reward Guan Zu had been looking forward to.

Thinking of what comes!

When the TV series "Justice Pao" was broadcast on Taiwan's CTS, it was very popular, and its craze spread to Hong Kong. At that time, both TVB and ATV in Hong Kong introduced the drama, and there even appeared a situation where the same unit story or even the same episode was broadcast at the same time, which shows its popularity.

"The File of Justice" pioneered the professional drama; although TVB chose to broadcast it at 10 o'clock on Sunday, the worst time slot for ratings, for the sake of insurance, it still achieved a rating of 30 points, breaking into the top three in annual ratings. Subsequently, the first, second, and third parts could still break into the top three of the year.

"Cold Blood Warm Heart" became popular quickly due to its complex business battles and family disputes, with ratings reaching as high as 38 points.

"Secrets of the Heart" is one of TVB's classic dramas, the number one in annual ratings, collectively known as the "Heaven and Earth Trilogy" with "Cold Blood Warm Heart" and "At the Threshold of an Era".

These scripts can definitely beat TVB down.

Asking him to write scripts, he wouldn't write them; of course, he could also let ATV's screenwriters get specific detailed outlines to do it, but he was too lazy, didn't even want to give detailed outlines, it was troublesome.

Could only look forward to system rewards.

Small opening is not opening!

At this time, the system reward was finished.

Guan Zu called, summoned the second secretary Wu Lianqian, and handed the scripts of "Justice Pao", "The File of Justice", "Cold Blood Warm Heart", and "Secrets of the Heart" to the TV production department.

"Tell the TV department, I require to see the first TV series on ATV's prime time in one week!"

"Yes, boss!"

With scripts, if they still can't do it well, then this department needs a major reshuffle.

"By the way, require them to also create excellent scripts themselves; if they can't, get out!"

Guan Zu is not someone who keeps idlers.

He can provide scripts, but he can't provide scripts all the time; editors must have their own abilities.

TV department,

With the arrival of the scripts, the whole TV department started to move, studying the scripts.

Soon, the TV department started to exclaim one after another.

"My god! This... the script of "Justice Pao" is too exquisite! Just looking at this plot outline, this TV series must be very exciting."

TVB TV series have always occupied more than half of the country, and ATV has been suppressed and can't lift its head; talent is one aspect, and scripts are also one aspect.

"If we can film it, ATV will really see the dawn of turning over!"

A veteran editor's cheeks flushed with excitement.

There are also "Cold Blood Warm Heart" and "Secrets of the Heart", but these two are not unit dramas, and it is more difficult to grasp, but the script plot setting is very good. And referring to the level of "Justice Pao", these two will definitely not be bad. As for "The File of Justice", an innovative professional drama, the script is very good, but the market hasn't been tested; since the boss values it, it is clear that he has great confidence in the script.

"If such a good script is still messed up by us, everyone should know the consequences."

Once this was said, everyone gradually returned to some rationality.

Started to become serious and earnest.

Moreover, boss Guan Zu also required a TV series to be on prime time within a week, which is undoubtedly a very challenging and arduous task.

"I think "The File of Justice" is relatively easier to operate. First, it's an urban drama, easy to film."

"Second, most of its scenes are concentrated in indoor places like courts and law firms; it doesn't need large-scale construction of complicated exterior scenes, whether it's cost or time arrangement, it's easier to control."

"We can use the mode of filming while broadcasting, which is perfect for this drama."

Everyone in the TV department nodded one after another.

"That's right, let's decide on "The File of Justice"! No time to lose, let's divide the work immediately. The director group hurry up and act, select actors; photography, lighting, props departments don't be idle either, move!"

"This time, we only allow success, not failure; success or failure depends on this one move!"

With a word from the TV director,

The entire TV production department was like a high-speed engine that was instantly started, running at high speed.

Liang Shuyi's villa,

Lady Fang, Liang Shuyi, and two noble ladies were playing mahjong.

"This time, our TVB has suffered a big loss."

"In terms of news, it might fall behind ATV completely."

Lady Fang looked at Liang Shuyi: "Director Liang, news is falling behind, but TV and variety shows have always been TVB's strengths; you must keep a good check on this point!"

Liang Shuyi smiled: "Don't worry Lady Fang, TV and variety shows are supported by strength, not by means. I have been the president of ATV for so many years, I know ATV's poor program production ability and low personnel level; ATV is impossible to beat TVB. Every time I gave a good decision, they could always do it very poorly, simply unable to lead."

A new day,

Monday, workday.

The stock market opened, office workers went to work...

All of Hong Kong started to get busy; economic take-off brought a lot of wealth to Hong Kong, and also made it busy.

And at this moment,

8 Jackson Road, Central, Hong Kong,

Legislative Council Building.

Today at the Legislative Council, a hearing that will attract the attention of all of Hong Kong will be held! It is worth mentioning that Legislative Councilors have salaries, about 500,000 annual salary. In 20 years, it will rise to an annual salary of one million.

Moreover, there are independent offices, and they can recruit secretaries, the kind that the Legislative Council pays for.

Today, Guan Zu's seven giants, and the other 53 Legislative Councilors arrived one after another.

In addition,

Reporters from all newspapers in Hong Kong were not afraid of big trouble, and came with microphones and cameramen.

However, they couldn't enter the Legislative Council and could only wait outside the door.

9:00,

The No. 1 car of Police Commissioner Johns drove to the entrance of the Legislative Council.

A group of reporters rushed over frantically, blocking the way.

"May I ask Commissioner..."

Original text is watching!

"Commissioner, may I ask..."

A young reporter, don't know if he was too excited, or was pushed by someone, causing him to poke the microphone directly into the Commissioner's mouth.

"Whoa!!!"

All the reporters were excited.

Tomorrow's newspaper headline news title, got it!

"Heinous, Commissioner publicly mouth-exploded!"

The Commissioner was shaking with anger, fuck n times inside.

He didn't care about the crazy questions of these reporters at all, forced his way through, and took his secretary into the Legislative Council.

However, the reporters were not disappointed; they hurriedly asked the cameraman: "Did you film it? Did you film the shot just now?"

Some cameramen: "Haha~~ filmed it!"

Some cameramen: "Oh no, it's blurry!"

Also some reporters had already insidiously thought of an idea: "Next time do this too, pretend to be pushed over, there is no law that doesn't allow me to fall, right? I'm not afraid of going to court."

Evil thought pollution spread...

Numerous reporters had such thoughts.

Oh no!

The moral level of Hong Kong news media has slipped again!

Corruption +1+1+1+1...

Hehehe~~~

Just at this time, another Mercedes arrived outside the Legislative Council building.

The car stopped,

Education functional constituency Legislative Councilor Member Si Ye got out of the car.

Another party involved came.

Numerous reporters continued to swarm over, blocking Member Si Ye.

"Councilor Si, this time you..."

"Councilor Si..."

Member Si Ye smiled, righteously and with great integrity representing the vast number of citizens to spray the Police Commissioner...

"The police force this time... oh... ah..."

A young reporter stood at the very front, microphone closest, and then only felt a push from behind.

The microphone poked over directly.

Mouth-explosion victim +1!

At this moment, a group of cameramen were prepared and excitedly started filming.

And the reporters?

Started to think of titles inside: "Shocking! Police Commissioner and Councilor Si's grudge, publicly mouth-exploded, the scene is unbearable to look at!"

At this time, Commissioner Johns was walking towards the Legislative Council building with a complex and uneasy mood.

This battle, if he carries it through, he can continue to serve as Commissioner.

If he can't carry it through, he will roll up his bedding and leave, unable to continue to be greedy for power and abuse power for personal gain.

Soon,

He took his secretary, walked into the Legislative Council building, and under the guidance of the staff, walked into the Legislative Council meeting hall.

Swept a circle, more than forty councilors had arrived.

All eyes were on him.

20 minutes later,

All Legislative Councilors arrived, and the hearing officially began.

Inside the Legislative Council meeting hall, the atmosphere was as oppressive as before a storm.

Under the ceiling, the huge crystal chandelier cast cold, hard light, illuminating rows of wooden benches; the councilors were dressed in formal attire, sitting seriously in their respective positions.

The entire meeting hall was filled with a sense of weight and majesty.

Member Si Ye took the lead in making trouble; he stood up "whoosh", instantly attracting the attention of the whole audience.

He was filled with righteous indignation and shouted loudly: "Mr. Johns, for today's situation, you must give all citizens of Hong Kong an explanation! What do we see? It's a police officer kneeling on the street, raising his hands to beg for mercy! This is simply a shame for the police force, can the public security of Hong Kong still make citizens feel at ease?"

While he was speaking, he waved the document in his hand forcefully, the paper rustling.

Why did Member Si Ye work so hard to express himself?

Naturally, it was because this Legislative Councilor wanted to do things, wanted to gather people's hearts, and wanted to show off.

Otherwise, who would know him in the next election?

And this time the police force, the police officer kneeling on the street, and the police force showing off afterwards, just provided him with a stage to show off.

Member Si Ye fired a barrage of questions: "Not to mention this shameful scene, we taxpayers pay a lot of money every year to supply the police force for training and equipment, but what about now? Just exchange for such a performance? Is the police resource reasonably used? Or is it that there is a serious waste of taxpayers' money in the police force, taking high funds, but unable to train police officers who can deal with crises?"

Commissioner Johns sat in his seat, facing the eyes of the audience, trying to maintain surface composure: "Councilors, the situation in Tai Kok Tsui that day was extremely critical, the bandits were heinous, held heavy weapons, and the police force engaged in a fierce firefight with them. At that time, that police officer, facing the black muzzle of the bandits, panicked for a moment and made a wrong move, but this can never represent the quality of the entire police force."

"Hmph!" Member Si Ye snorted coldly, interrupting the Commissioner's words, "One police officer can easily collapse, then how can we believe that the police force can protect citizens at critical moments? Where did the daily training go?"

Commissioner Johns tried to make his voice firmer: "The police force's daily training has never been slack. This incident is a painful lesson; afterwards, we have strengthened psychological anti-stress training to ensure that similar situations will not happen again. And in that gunfight, more police officers showed extraordinary courage; they disregarded their own safety and fought to the death with the bandits, minimizing casualties."

Member Si Ye was unrelenting: "Then let's talk about the ideological level, is the police force's entry screening and ideological education up to standard? If police officers don't even have firm beliefs in defending justice and protecting citizens, how can they talk about guarding Hong Kong? Giving up resistance so easily, does it mean that the police force already has problems in its ideological foundation?"

There was a lot of discussion in the meeting hall, councilors whispered to each other, but most of them agreed with this.

Feeling that the police force had indeed lost points in this incident.

Johns wanted to defend, but his identity, no matter how he defended, was of no use.

And just at this time,

"Everyone... let me say a few words..."

Guan Zu, who had been silent, tapped the microphone, attracting the attention of all the councilors.

Johns finally breathed a sigh of relief inside.

My old friend is here!

That's right, Johns and Guan Zu had already reached the milestone of friends, and would 'cooperate' more in the future.

Guan Zu's power and wealth had already been cultivated at this time, and he exuded an aura of dignity in his gestures.

The meeting hall instantly quieted down.

Guan Zu opened his mouth to the microphone: "Regarding this matter, I want to say a few words. The police force has guarded Hong Kong for many years and has made great contributions; it cannot be completely denied because of one individual incident."

"Just now, Councilor Member Si Ye's words were righteous and resounding..."

"I just want to ask one question!"

"If the bandits point a gun at your head, will you choose to kneel, or will you still insist on your integrity?"

Guan Zu looked at Member Si Ye, the corners of his mouth slightly hooked.
