~14 min read 2,792 words

A new day,

Huang Dawen rushed to Stanley Prison quickly.

Because early this morning, a prison guard was bought by Li Pangzi and notified Huang Dawen.

"What's going on with you?"

Huang Dawen was taken aback when he saw Li Pangzi's face.

"I was beaten!"

"I suspect Director Guan Zu did it, he bought people in the prison early to beat me!"

Li Pangzi cried,

"You hurry up and get me out, this place is simply hell!"

"You say Director Guan Zu did it?"

Huang Dawen stood up, ready to leave.

Li Pangzi: "............"

What the hell is this look of wanting to run away!

What about your professional ethics?

Simply want to vomit blood!

"Actually, I was just talking, it's not Director Guan Zu at all... Can you help me get out quickly?"

"I'll try my best~~"

After Huang Dawen understood the situation, he knew about Ding Xie, life imprisonment, even if he was a cripple, he was strong, and he hated evil.

Wait... hated evil?

Then how did he get into prison?

After Huang Dawen understood everything, he felt that this Ding Xie—buff full!

Awesome!!

Leaving the prison, he drove the car, drove away from Stanley, and returned to the law firm.

Then......

Assistant: "Lawyer Huang, there is a big client who specifically wants to see you, I don't know if you have time?"

Huang Dawen: "Big client? Have time!"

Soon Huang Dawen saw this big client————Li Pangzi's current wife.

"Lawyer Huang, hello......"

"Mrs. Li...... your husband's case is very tricky now, I don't have much confidence."

Mrs. Li smiled: "Lawyer Huang, you got it wrong, I didn't come to save my husband, I want to divorce him, and then I want to ask you how I can legally sell the entire media company without risk, and I will take the baby to settle in the United States."

Huang Dawen leaned back tactically: "Ah?"

Shocked!

Mrs. Li was calm: "Lawyer Huang, you should also know that my husband goes out to philander all day, or maybe one day he will pass HIV to me. This time, he even made such an outrageous thing, and the last bit of affection between me and him is gone."

"You are most familiar with his company, so I want to entrust you to sell the company, and then teach me how to take the money legally, or illegally."

Huang Dawen hesitated.

I, after all, am a lawyer, and have professional ethics.

Mrs. Li: "10% commission!"

Huang Dawen did not hesitate, reached out: "Deal!"

Sorry,

What professional ethics?

I don't have any!

As for Li Pangzi's medical parole?

Sorry, I'm a bit busy now, I'll try again after a while.

(Li Pangzi in prison: "............" Fuck you!)

……

Director Guan Zu's plan for Hong Kong youth to go to the mainland, the first phase of investigation, finally started to act.

……

November 3rd.

West Kowloon, Youth Community, on the leisure square.

Early in the morning, many young people went to work, but there were also many young people who were odd-jobbers or had no jobs.

On the open space under the clothesline, A Ken with blue hair leaned against the corner of the wall holding a guitar missing a string, playing Beyond's "Glorious Years," and several girls in suspender pants stepped on the rhythm to dance.

Shenzai at the table next door was slapping poker cards loudly, and the roar of "Three Ks!" startled the birds on the windowsill.

Shenzai was playing cards while blowing water with his card friends.

"I'm really not blowing water!" Shenzai fished up the cards, "Last month, I really met Mr. Director Guan at the pork offal soup shop outside, and chatted with him!"

"Crazy!" A Qiao threw out three Aces, "Mr. Director Guan sits in a luxury car, the company is in Central, and he will go to eat 28-mosquito pork offal soup?"

"That's right!" A Lan wearing a duck-tongue cap passed the cards, "Believing you is not as good as believing I won the jackpot?"

Shenzai flushed: "I'm a puppy if I lie to you! Last month I really ate with Mr. Director Guan, he is very approachable, completely different from other bosses!"

Shenzai: "I told you before, I mixed with other big brothers and sisters, and I knew Mr. Director Guan at that time......"

Shenzai told the story of Dong Haobo and Liang Liang Huiyan again.

"I also talked to Mr. Director Guan about my work last month."

Shenzai was afraid they wouldn't believe it, so he said it in detail.

"Mr. Director Guan was very patient and kept listening to me talk about the difficulties we have in finding jobs now. Have you seen any billionaire who would listen to so much nonsense from us ordinary people......"

"Really?"

"Don't say, Mr. Director Guan really might be like this......"

Just then,

Outside the youth community, a car stopped.

Gao Qiu brought more than a dozen people and walked into the youth community, causing a lot of attention.

"Mr. Gao Qiu is here!"

"There must be something big......"

The youth community caused a commotion with Gao Qiu's arrival.

Soon, the youth community's broadcast started to ring: "Dear residents, I am Gao Qiu, the chairman of the Five-Star Charity Foundation, and also the person in charge of the youth community......"

"Instructed by Mr. Director Guan Zu, the chairman of the Five-Star Group, starting from today for one week, we will carry out a concentrated investigation of the life and development status of the youth group in the community......"

"Specifically, I want to understand what difficulties you encountered in finding a job (no skills/low wages/no positions), whether you have entrepreneurial ideas (street stalls/opening shops), how much money you can save every month, and what help you need (training/funds/ways)......"

"Location: Activity room on the 1st floor of Building 3 of the community......"

"Time: 9 am to 8 pm every day, for a period of one week......"

"Mr. Director Guan said: The future of Hong Kong is the future of youth. This time, the Five-Star Group wants to understand the difficulties of youth more, hoping to find an opportunity for youth to get out of trouble......"

As the broadcast spread,

Shenzai's face gradually became excited......

"Hahahaha~~~"

He waved his fist,

"It must be me, it must be me!"

"I told Mr. Director Guan about our difficulties last month, and now Mr. Director Guan really came!"

He shouted excitedly at his card friends:

"Look, I didn't blow the cow!"

"I really met Mr. Director Guan......"

He threw the cards excitedly and flew to the activity room on the 1st floor of Building 3 of the community.

Soon,

The whole community started to surge, and they went to the activity room on the 1st floor of Building 3.

Soon, a long line formed there.

……

At the same time, the other four major youth communities also had the same thing happen.

Young people flocked from all over the community, and soon lined up in long lines.

Long lines, young voices rising and falling:

"What number are you in line? "

"Will Mr. Director Guan really help us? "

"Needless to say, Mr. Director Guan is the best~~"

"Long live Mr. Director Guan!"......

……

That night,

Without Director Guan Zu's instructions, Gao Qiu and Da Tou contacted ATV and TVB for public opinion warm-up.

"Good evening, viewers, this is ATV News."

"Today, the 'Youth Difficulty Investigation Action' led by Director Guan Zu, chairman of the Five-Star Group, was launched in the five major youth communities in Hong Kong......"

"This investigation action focuses on two themes: the status quo of employment difficulties and future development research. Thousands of young people in major communities spontaneously lined up to reflect their demands......"

The TV screen cut to the scene of the queue in the West Kowloon Youth Community, and the camera swept across the winding human dragon.

On-site reporter: "I am now in the West Kowloon Youth Community. As you can see, even though it is dusk, there are several long lines more than 20 meters long in front of the activity room of Building 3......"

"Mr. Director Guan often says 'Hong Kong's future is in the youth', and this investigation......"

"Mr. Gao Qiu, chairman of the Five-Star Charity Foundation, said......"

……

……

In the next few days, Hong Kong was lively every day.

In addition to the news of the youth investigation promoted by the Five-Star Group, Hong Kong Telecom also had big news.

Hong Kong Telecom's communication failure event, although it has been solved, the stock price continues to fall.

In order to boost the stock price and return blood, Hong Kong Telecom directly sent a lawyer team to sue the Hong Kong government: its exclusive license for external telecommunications lines and services was originally scheduled to terminate on September 30, 2006. And now the business license has been terminated in advance, so it sued the Hong Kong government, requiring the Hong Kong government to compensate.

In addition, not only the external license, but also the fixed-line license and mobile license were still sued, requiring the Hong Kong government to compensate.

Hong Kong Telecom: "............"

Now, it really has a splitting headache.

Hong Kong Telecom monitored too many rich people. If every rich person sued, Hong Kong Telecom would probably have to vomit blood.

Throughout November, Hong Kong was lively.

Today the court opened to hear Hong Kong Telecom suing the Hong Kong government.

Tomorrow, the rich people joined forces to sue Hong Kong Telecom.

You sing and I appear, tossing back and forth.

However, Director Guan Zu's youth investigation also attracted the attention of citizens.

……

November 20th,

ATV, at 20:00, made a "Youth Future Special Topic" and reported the results of the investigation of young people in Hong Kong.

Subsequently, for 4 consecutive days, ATV continuously released various materials.

There were also many young people interviews that were on this report.

On the TV screen, a young man helplessly said: "I am doing odd jobs now, and it is too difficult to find a formal job."

The girl who looked like a restaurant waiter also poured out: "I work as a waiter in a restaurant, and the salary is only enough to maintain basic life. Fortunately, there is a youth community, so I can start saving money."

Talking about marriage, a young man smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Marriage? No money to marry."

There were also young people who decadently said: "No hope for the future."

These voices reflect the difficulties faced by young people in Hong Kong.

In addition, ATV invited sociologists to analyze.

These professors and experts pointed out seriously:

"Hong Kong in 1994 is at a very critical period."

"In terms of economic structure, since the late 1980s, Hong Kong has become one of the Four Asian Tigers, with rapid economic development, gradually transforming from manufacturing to service industries such as finance, trade, and real estate. But although there are many service industry positions, the requirements for academic qualifications and skills are also high."

"For example, the financial industry tends to recruit graduates from prestigious schools to engage in high-end financial analysis, investment management, etc.; the trade field also requires practitioners to have good foreign language skills and international trade knowledge."

"This makes it difficult for a large number of young people with ordinary academic qualifications and lack of professional skills to enter core positions, and they can only linger in low-wage service industries such as catering and retail, like the restaurant waiter in the investigation."

"More young people don't even have a decent job."

"With the continuous increase in the number of young people, the imbalance between supply and demand of positions is becoming more and more serious. When companies recruit, facing a large number of job seekers, they continue to raise the threshold, further compressing the employment space for young people. In this case, young people have meager income, find it difficult to bear high living costs, and are even less able to talk about major life events such as marriage."

Experts emphasized: "In the long run, it will trigger a series of social problems, such as the further widening of the gap between rich and poor, the solidification of social strata, and the reduction of young people's sense of identity with society."

Several days of reporting,

The eyes of all Hong Kong citizens were attracted here.

Even the news of rich people suing Hong Kong Telecom and Hong Kong Telecom suing the Hong Kong government was covered up.

……

A new day,

Central Plaza, top floor, Director Guan Zu's office.

Director Guan Zu looked at the newspaper reports of the past few days and said to Wu Lianqian: "I feel the timing is almost right. In the afternoon, according to the original plan, let ATV come over for an interview."

Wu Lianqian: "Yes!"

At noon, ATV News added a piece of content: "Recently, Hong Kong has been discussing the future of youth. Tonight at 20:00, Mr. Director Guan Zu will accept an exclusive interview with ATV to talk about the future of youth."

This news attracted the attention of many citizens.

In the afternoon, ATV reporter Huang Huang Jieyi brought a photographer to the Five-Star Group headquarters.

……

At night,

After the news broadcast ended,

20 o'clock, after the advertisement, Director Guan Zu's exclusive interview was officially broadcast.

At this moment,

All of Hong Kong, from Yuen Long to Tuen Mun, from the border area to Sai Kung, from East Kowloon to West Kowloon, from Hong Kong Island to the outlying islands......

Thousands of households, countless citizens began to lock onto this program.

With Director Guan Zu's picture appearing in front of the TV,

All Hong Kong citizens, all eyes were on him.

"Mr. Director Guan finally came out!"

"Every time Mr. Director Guan will not let us down."

……

On TV,

Director Guan Zu sat in the sofa in the office, in a suit, still so dazzling, and reporter Huang Huang Jieyi sat opposite.

"Dear citizens and neighbors, hello......"

"All of Hong Kong is discussing the future of youth......"

Director Guan Zu spent 2 minutes of opening remarks, talking about the basic situation.

Then his expression was solemn,

"Today, let's talk about Hong Kong, look back at the past, and look forward to the future."

"In the past, Hong Kong, because of its geographical advantages, is located in the center of the Asia-Pacific region, has a natural deep-water port, is convenient for large cargo ships to dock, and has been an important transshipment port in the Far East since the 19th century. After the 60s, with the transformation of the global shipping industry from sailing ships to container transport, Hong Kong relied on port efficiency to become one of the busiest ports in the world in 1980."

"Port advantages drove supporting industries such as warehousing, logistics, and finance. For example, HSBC developed early by relying on trade financing business and became a pillar of Hong Kong's financial system."

"In the 60s-70s, labor-intensive industries rose. After World War II, a large number of mainland immigrants entered Hong Kong, coupled with the opportunities of industrial transfer in Europe and America, Hong Kong vigorously developed light industries such as textiles, toys, and electronic assembly."

"In the 80s, with the rise of labor costs, Hong Kong's manufacturing industry began to transfer to the mainland ('front shop, back factory' model), focusing on R&D, design, marketing, and trade locally. In 1989, the service industry accounted for more than 70% of GDP, establishing its status as an international financial center."

Director Guan Zu: "The above is the development history of Hong Kong."

"Next, let's look forward to the future of Hong Kong."

"Will Hong Kong continue to be so prosperous in the future? Develop rapidly? Continue to occupy the forefront of the world?"

"My answer is...... impossible!"

As soon as this remark came out,

All Hong Kong citizens were shocked.

PS: The plot can't be finished, let's go to the next chapter.

PS: I want to ask for leave for one chapter today, which means I will update one chapter tomorrow. The reason is that the state is very poor. I sat at home for a day yesterday and only produced more than 4000 words. I rarely asked for leave before, even if I had a fever, I only asked for leave for one chapter. I was on the shelves in August last year, and until now, I haven't asked for leave for a day. Maybe I'm tired, my brain needs to rest, and change to a stimulus. Please rest assured, readers, the update will still keep up, it won't be as pit as 4000 words a day.
