Hong Kong Movies: You Hongxingzi, what the hell is the charity king?

Chapter 340 "339" Inspecting Sha Tin District: Guan Zu is here, and Sha Tin District has a clean government!
In fact, these editors all have some titles in mind:
For example:

"Mr. Guan yelled, 'Yamedie, there are too many people! '"

《It’s full, it’s full!》

"Please don't come. There's no room left. There's no room left!"

but……

If you dare to use this headline in your report, you will be beaten. Moreover, you will be forced to go to Mingxin Hospital for treatment and get medicine worth HK$1000 before you can leave. This is really "too considerate".

Your life is at stake!

The editor-in-chief looked at this group of useless people, cowardly bandits, and felt disappointed.

Forget it, I don’t dare!

Laughing and crying~~~
……

The same scene took place in all major newspapers across Hong Kong.

They all want to come up with a better title, but they are afraid of being beaten by Guan Zu!
……

a new day,
10 month 21 day,
Guan Zu and Ruan Mei went downstairs and greeted the neighbors.

"Uncle Ben~~" Guan Zu gloated, "I heard you went to the supermarket, how was it? Were you squeezed?"

Uncle Ben didn't answer, but Aunt Ben next to him started to complain with disgust: "Don't mention it. I told him not to join in the fun, but he didn't believe me. He even lost his shoes..."

Uncle Ben is embarrassed...

Guan Zu came to the newsstand and took a look at all the newspapers:
"Guan Zu: Sorry, the supermarket is too small and we can't have a good time!" - Sing Tao Daily

"Five-Star Supermarket opens with a bang, and Boss Li's supermarket empire faces its darkest end!" - Oriental Daily

"Welcome the new king of retail, there is no ticket for Mr. Li in the new era!" - Ming Pao

"..."

Guan Zu nodded with satisfaction.

He was afraid that some newspapers would be outrageous enough to tarnish his innocence, but now it seems that these newspapers are still very righteous... right!
(Newspaper chickens across Hong Kong pecking at rice: Mmmmm!!)
Guan Zu and Ruan Mei got in the car, A Xing drove, and Xiao Fu was the bodyguard.

Go straight to Five Star Supermarket.

Arriving at Shun Tak Centre, after yesterday's huge crowds, citizens today did not dare to join in the fun. There were more than 5000 customers in the supermarket, but it was not packed.

Come to the conference room,
With dark circles under her eyes, Tan Meili reported some statistics from the supermarket yesterday to Guan Zu:
"On the opening day, the supermarket welcomed approximately 19.4 customers..."

"We launched a membership registration activity during the opening period, and a total of 15 new members joined..."

"Through on-site questionnaires and online evaluations, customer satisfaction is as high as 92%... We also recorded some valuable suggestions for improvement... For example, there are not enough baked goods and too few fruit juices..."

"In terms of operations, we encountered some problems, such as the pressure of replenishing stocks caused by the rapid sale of some products, and the long checkout queues during peak hours..."

Guan Zu nodded repeatedly.

10 points,
After listening to the report, Guan Zu left the supermarket and took Ruan Mei to Shatin.

It was his first time to go to Sha Tin, and Gao Jin had taken A Ting to do the previous land inspections.

Because Sha Tin is not the sphere of influence of Hung Hing and Five Star, before Guan Zu went there, Five Star Property had already sent out more than 300 of his men to make arrangements in advance.

Besides the Heavenly Soldier Xiao Fu, Guan Zu also brought along other Heavenly Soldier Abu, Li Jie, Gao Gang, as well as the Holy Soldier Li Changjiang, Datou, and others...

With the addition of Gao Jin, the team is truly magnificent.

As the deputy general manager and the person in charge, Ah Ting has been busy in Shatin District, looking for a temporary address for the company and doing various things...

He was there preparing to welcome Guan Zu and others.

……

……

Shatin District.

quickly,

Guan Zu and others took a car from Wong Tai Sin, passed through the Lion Rock Tunnel, and entered the southwest corner of Sha Tin.

The land acquired by Wuxing Real Estate is located in the southwest corner.

Starting in 1970, Hong Kong Island decided to develop a new town in Sha Tin.

Therefore, reclamation projects on both sides of Sha Tin Sea began, and the Shing Mun River was extended into a 7-kilometre-long and 200-metre-wide artificial river. With the Shing Mun River as the central axis, it developed towards the mountain ranges on both sides, presenting a narrow strip of land extending from southwest to northeast, which is the famous Sha Tin area in the future.

At this time, the population of Sha Tin District was only 20, but it will reach 21 in the 60st century.

"Let's go and see..."

Guan Zu, Gao Jin and others boarded a bus that Ating had temporarily arranged and headed along the canal.

At this time, the Sha Tin District was still dim at first glance, and a large number of construction sites were underway.

As the bus moved forward, Ting introduced:
"This is the canal in Shatin..."

"The source of the water is on the Lion Rock and other mountains. The water used to be very clean, so the original place name here was 'Yuanli', which describes the clear water at the mouth of the Shing Mun River."

"The population of Shatin District is mainly 'locals' who came here during the Ming and Qing dynasties and built their houses along the water. Later, the Hakka people moved in, most of them lived in the mountains. Now the Hakka people are more numerous in the entire Shatin District, accounting for about 7%."

quickly,

The bus drove to the canal...

then……

A foul smell came towards me.

All I saw was a black river filled with water...

On the river bank, you can vaguely see a large number of dead fish "stranded" on the shore, and the stench is quite pungent.

Guan Zu's first reaction was:
"Oh my god... It's so scary, how can people live here?"

"This investment is going to be a loss!"

Of course, Guan Zu knew that this investment would definitely not lose money. If it did, the Li Ji Tycoon of the Four Great Families would no longer be called the Four Great Families. Because Li Daheng had a huge real estate project here, with 52 buildings and more than 30 floors, called Shatin First City.

Many people in the car felt a little overwhelmed.

Sour and stinky smell, very addictive!
Ah Ting said awkwardly: "Boss, I have also studied it. There is absolutely no problem with the land we bought. It will definitely sell well!"

"After all, our land is upstream and has not been polluted at all..."

Ah Ting explained: "I have consulted the environmental protection department and experts from several universities. The main sources of these sewage are industrial sewage, livestock waste, rural sewage, sludge from water treatment plants, and water pollution caused by illegal connection to sewage canals... There is also a large amount of organic matter decomposing in the river, which causes a decrease in the oxygen content in the water. In addition, the river itself lacks self-purification capacity, resulting in the Shing Mun River becoming a black and smelly dead river..."

Soon, the bus continued to move forward.

Guan Zu saw the First City of Shatin.

Ah Ting introduced: "This group of buildings was jointly invested and constructed by four giants, New World Development (Mr. Zheng), Sun Hung Kai (Mr. Guo) and Cheung Kong Holdings (Mr. Li) in 1977. It was the largest residential project in Shatin District. It started in 1982 and was completed in 1988."

Then the conversation changed...

"However, the shares of Boss Li, Boss Guo, and Boss Zheng have all been sold out. Only Boss Li Ji has not sold yet."

Everyone was stunned.

“Haven’t sold it yet?”

“Yes, not a single house was sold.”

Everyone was very curious.

Guan Zu knew about this. For Mr. Li Ji, this piece of land was a very important business in his life. In the first phase of the building, due to the turbulent situation (negotiations between the two countries), many Hong Kong Islanders chose to emigrate and sell their properties, which caused the real estate market in Hong Kong Island to plummet.

The four major families kept waiting. In the late 80s, the property market in Hong Kong Island recovered and the other three families started selling. A large number of citizens poured in, but boss Li Ji was still unwilling to sell Shatin First City.

I waited until 1996, which was the peak of the Hong Kong property market and just before the Asian financial crisis.

It was at that time that Boss Li Ji started selling the houses he owned, and they were quickly sold out by the market.

Because of this transaction alone, Boss Li Ji made 400 billion.

One battle to become a god.

However, Boss Li Ji also regretted why he did not buy the land himself but instead joined forces with three other real estate developers?
If he does it on his own, he can retire all at once.

More than 100 billion!

However, the citizens who bought this property at that time were extremely miserable, just like Guan Zu in his previous life, because the 97 financial crisis came and housing prices plummeted!
The bus went forward.

A Ting pointed to a building on the opposite bank of the river.

“That’s the horse ranch.”

(The building opposite is Ma'anshan. Boss Li and Boss Li Ji were fighting over it and had a feud.)
The Hong Kong Jockey Club has two racecourses. The earliest one is Happy Valley in Wan Chai, where the last disaster relief charity performance took place. It was built and put into use in 1931.

The venue in Sha Tin was completed and opened in 1978 and can accommodate more than spectators.

the bus,
After circling the city gate canal,
Guan Zu felt a little nauseous when he saw the river filled with sewage.

“This river must be cleaned up.”

Guan Zu: "By the way, isn't there a sewage plant here?"

A-Ting: "Yes,"

"Next to the Jockey Club, near the estuary, there is a Shatin sewage treatment plant. The first phase of the sewage treatment facility, including secondary treatment, was fully operational after it was completed in 1984, and the second phase was completed in 1986."

“Now it’s working.”

Guan Zu and others were surprised.

There is a sewage treatment plant, why is the sewage still discharged here?
Gao Jin said coldly: "Is the Environmental Protection Agency stupid? They don't care about this?"

Gao Jin, your fate has changed now, you are no longer a villain!

Following Guan Zu, he also became charitable.

Now he has become a legislator and has a heart for the people!
Guan Zu said: "This situation is probably a game between the factory and the Environmental Protection Agency, using the factory relocation as an excuse to put pressure on the government."

Guan Zu has seen a lot, whether abroad or at home, and it’s nothing more than the economy or the environment.

Gao Jin: "We can use the Legislative Council to put pressure on these factories in the name of the Legislative Council."

Guan Zu nodded: "Yes!"

Guan Zu looked at the dark river and said to Ah Ting, "Please contact the New Territories government. I want to take on a project - the 'River Cleaning and Sewage Quality Improvement Project'."

Ah Ting: "Ah? Brother Zu, this is a government matter. We don't need to take it on. It doesn't make much money."

Guan Zu shook his head: "If I didn't see it, of course I could ignore it. Now that I have seen it, I naturally have to deal with it."

For Guan Zu, this is a great merit, and the system reward will definitely not be small.

Moreover, Guan Zu really hopes to create an "halo".

Do you have confidence in this pollution cleanup project?
Of course there are.

There was success in the past. In May 2001, the "Shing Mun River Water Quality Improvement Project" was officially launched by the Civil Engineering Department. However, due to the long-term deposition of pollutants in the riverbed, it took a long time to dredge and renovate the river to solve the pollution accumulated over the years, and during this period, it was also necessary to avoid secondary pollution caused by the river renovation.

After several years of repeated governance...

Finally, the river water in Sha Tin began to become clean.

It eventually became the permanent venue for the Hong Kong Island Dragon Boat Race.

Guan Zu spoke earnestly and righteously: "In addition to making money, our Five Star Group also needs to do what we can to improve the lives of citizens."

Upon hearing this, Ating thought about his grandfather's past.

I couldn't help but feel ashamed.

I am still too selfish and only think about making money.

Smell of money!
Now that Zu Ge is here, Sha Tin District has a blue sky!

Ating stood at attention and said seriously: "Yes, Zu Ge, I understand!"

Guan Zu: "Ah Ting, please help me contact the government leaders in the New Territories... I want to talk to them about cooperation in sewage treatment."

A-Ting nodded: "Okay, Zu Ge."

When the bus was about to return,
"Ling ring ring~~~~"

A Ting's cell phone rang.

A Dong's voice came: "Brother Ting, it's bad, our people were injured by those people on the battlefield."

Ah Ting frowned immediately: "Didn't you say we are from Hongxing?"

A Dong: "He said that their boss is Uncle Liansheng Feihua, and he is not afraid of us at all."

A-Ting: “????”

No way? Big brother! When did He Liansheng become so arrogant? Feihua? Sorry, I only recognize Deng Bo! No one else is qualified!

A Ting: "You guys take the people back first, I'm still with Brother Zu... Are any of my brothers injured? Pay for the medicine and other expenses according to the regulations."

A Dong: “Okay.”

hang up the phone.

Ah Ting said to Guan Zu embarrassedly: "Brother Zu, I'm sorry. But I will take care of it."

Guan Zu waved his hand: "Tell me what happened."

Ah Ting: "Recently we are preparing to start construction. There are construction sites everywhere in Shatin, so I recruited some people to form a construction engineering team. Next we need to get sand to build the house...Now all the sand fields are monopolized by one sand field."

"The owner of this sand field is a man called Cai Gou."

"Because the British Hong Kong government announced that it would establish a new development zone here, it attracted a lot of social organizations to settle here, including Dongxing, Wo Liansheng, Zhongxinyi, Xinji... and so on. It can be said that there are good and bad organizations here."

Guan Zu pondered for a moment and said, "Fei Hua generally won't hold a grudge against us. I guess it's because the younger brothers below don't know how to behave."

"Ahua, call Uncle Deng and tell him what happened. Let him handle it. If he doesn't handle it, I will deal with him."

Uncle Deng said: My family, who understands? You are sitting at home and the pot comes from the sky!

Ah Hua nodded: "Okay."

Guan Zu said to Ah Ting, "There is one more thing. The biggest project in Shatin is "Shatin First City". Boss Li Ji has been here for so long, and this rookie must have had contact with people in Boss Li Ji's company, so he is so arrogant. But don't pay any attention to him. The United Victory Club will deal with him internally."

A-Ting: “Yes!”

Guan Zu thought for a moment, and then said to Datou, "Datou, in the name of Five Star Property, call all the leaders of the social organizations in Shatin District and have a meeting together. From now on, we at Five Star Property will have the final say on all matters in Shatin! If anyone disagrees, just write it down and we will deal with them slowly."

Places like Sha Tin have not yet developed, so it is impossible for any big forces to occupy them. Instead, they are just a mixture of small forces.

Little Camilla, do you still need me to do anything?
