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

Chapter 680 "679" Split! Split! (Thanks to leader Gigi for the tip!)
Just when Zhang Lin thought Guan Zu had finished scolding him,
Guan Zu is not finished yet.

"In addition to the huge profits mentioned above, there is another reason why I want to split up Hong Kong Island Telecom!"

"That is!"

"Monopoly hinders technological innovation!"

Guan Zu took out a map with many red and blue dots on it.

"In 1991, the GSM communication system was officially commercialized in Finland."

"The GSM system (Global System for Mobile Communications) has many important features, including strong anti-copying capabilities, large network capacity, abundant mobile phone number resources (long numbers), clear calls, strong stability, and sensitive information..."

"There are many advantages, so after Finland commercialized it, European and American countries quickly followed suit and deployed GSM networks."

"Even in the mainland, the first GSM was built in Jiaxing City, ZJ Province on September 1993, 9..."

"And what about our Hong Kong Island?"

"We started building it in the first half of last year... and it has been slow all the way. According to the financial statements of listed companies from last year to this year, Hong Kong Island Telecom's GSM network only covers 15%, and the rest are still using outdated networks..."

When Zhang Lin heard this, his face changed.

He reluctantly explained: "Base station construction requires time..."

"Need a cycle?"

Guan Zu sneered.
“How big is Hong Kong Island?”

"It's only over 1114 square kilometers!"

“The newspapers are shouting every day that there are too many people and too little land!”

"Now you, Hong Kong Island Telecom, are making over 30% in profits every year, but you are dragging your feet on doing something important for people's livelihood, and you are still using your monopoly profits to support those old 'electronic garbage'."

“Are you worthy of the citizens of Hong Kong Island?”

"I understand why you are so confident."

"Because monopoly is your get-out-of-jail-free card! Without competition, you dare to set sky-high rates; without supervision, you dare to treat technology upgrades as a joke! You sit on a mountain of monopoly, and even the phrase 'lack of ambition' sounds justified!"

Guan Zu slapped his hands on the table, causing the microphone to buzz.
"When all Hong Kong citizens are scrimping and saving for their communications bills, you are transferring profits to the Cayman Islands! When GSM digital signals are being popularized in the mainland, you are fooling people with analog signal 'electronic garbage'! Can you honestly say that you are worthy of the 500 million Hong Kong Island citizens?!"

Finally, Guan Zu looked around.
"Members of the Legislative Yuan, dear viewers watching on TV..."

The sound is sonorous and powerful!

"For all the reasons above, I think Island Telecom must be split up!"

"Splitting up Hong Kong Island Telecom is not targeting any particular company, but to cut off the chains of monopoly! It is to lower the rates, improve the services, and get the technology up and running!"

"This is not my personal appeal, but the common voice of every Hong Kong citizen who has paid the 'monopoly tax'!"

Guan Zu scanned the entire audience.

"I'm done!"

Then he slowly sat down.

next moment,
"Wow~~~~"

The audience applauded warmly.

Most of the legislators were convinced by Guan Zu's words, and a few were more perfunctory, but due to the live TV broadcast, they dared not not applaud.

Citizens across Hong Kong who were watching on TV were also excited.

At this moment, Zhang Lin's face turned pale, but he still wanted to struggle:
"and many more……"

"I protest!"

"HK Electric can cut its profits and not be split up, so why should we, Hong Kong Island Telecom, be split up?"

“We can squeeze our margins, too!”

He cleverly used the example of Hong Kong Electric Company.

All the members of the parliament looked at Guan Zu.

Guan Zu's eyes were sharp, as if he could see through Zhang Lin's heart:

"the reason is simple!"

"Although HK Electric has a monopoly in Hong Kong Island, it is not a monopoly in Hong Kong Island. We still have China Light and Power Company in Hong Kong Island."

“With CLP Power here, we can compare their costs with each other.”

"But Island Telecom is not an option. There is only one telecommunications group in Hong Kong, Island Telecom, and we cannot find a company in the same industry that can compare with it."

"Besides, as I just said, monopoly has made you lose your ambition... How can you maintain your international competitiveness?"

"Also, the ICAC already has solid evidence that you evaded taxes and falsely reported costs... How can you expect more than 500 million Hong Kong citizens to trust you?"

Zhang Lin opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't know how to defend himself.

Guan Zu: "I'm done."

Let go of the mic.

……

At this time, the host John finally appeared again.
"All right……"

"Everyone has seen Councillor Guan Zu's question to President Zhang Lin and President Zhang Lin's answer..."

"Does any other councillor have any questions?"

Many lawmakers shook their heads.

They were there to watch the fun and had not made any preparations, so they decided not to make a fool of themselves. Otherwise, if they were refuted by Zhang Lin, they would bring shame to the whole of Hong Kong.

Chairman John: "Okay, since there are no questions from the members, let's end our first topic here."

"Next, please ask President Zhang Lin to leave..."

"Everyone take a 15-minute break. After 15 minutes, we will discuss the second topic: "Proposal on adding antitrust regulations to the telecommunications market."

……

at this time,

There is chaos over at the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.

“Sell, sell, sell it out to me!!”

"I can't buy Hong Kong Island Telecom shares anymore!"

Retail investors are screaming!
The institutions are also screaming!

Citizens and organizations who were waiting to see the Legislative Council's legislation today have completely given up hope. Based on the hearing results, Guan Zu is sure to win, and Island Telecom will be dismantled.

Let’s move on to the second topic. With the whole of Hong Kong broadcasting live, anyone who dares to vote against it will probably be criticized to death by the citizens tomorrow.

Guan Zu's words "111 years" really hurt the hearts of the citizens.

Let my sons, daughters and descendants be sucked blood by you?

Die for me!!

Right now,

Hong Kong Island Telecom fell 13%!

Including yesterday, it has fallen by 33% (compound calculation)!
……

15 minutes later,
Legislative Council Building,

Legislative Council President John: "Okay, now let's start the second agenda..." In fact, many legislators have already received money from Hong Kong Island Telecom.

But they are all smart people, and it is absolutely impossible for them to collect money for "no votes". At most, they will collect money for "abstention votes".

The trend is irreversible!
Now Guan Zu has 500 million public support, this is the trend!
Anyone who dares to stand in the way will die quickly!
"First of all: Regarding the split plan of Hong Kong Island Telecom... cancel the exclusive operating license and introduce a competition mechanism from other companies..."

10 minutes later, there were some modifications, but it passed!

"Article 2..."

……

……

the other side,
Police Force B Department held a high-level meeting.

Huang Bingyao sat in the first seat,
Chen Guozhong spoke on the stage.

"Our Department B stepped up its crackdown efforts in the third quarter of this year and achieved remarkable results."

"The overall crime clearance rate increased by 23% month-on-month, the number of serious violent crimes decreased by 18% month-on-month, and the investigation and settlement rate of cases involving gangs and evil forces increased by 31% month-on-month..."

As he was speaking,
Two streaks of red suddenly flowed out of his nose.

"Sir Chen!"

"Azhong!"

The conference room exploded.

Huang Bingyao's face changed drastically, and the others were also shocked.

Chen Guozhong touched it subconsciously, and his hand turned bloody.

Chen Guozhong: “???”

I was completely stunned for a moment.

what happened?

……

……

noon,

The Legislative Council meeting was temporarily suspended.

“Tap tap tap tap~~~”

Guan Zu, accompanied by Chairman John, Vice Chairman William, and many other members of parliament, walked out of the conference hall and went to the cafeteria for dinner.

There are quite a lot of anti-monopoly regulations proposed by Guan Zu, and it will take at least several days to discuss them.

at this time,

Wu Lianqian walked over quickly and whispered, "Brother Zu, something happened..."

Guan Zu was stunned for a moment, and his face became serious: "What's wrong?"

Wu Lianqian whispered: "Mr. Chen, he was admitted to the hospital. The examination showed that he had brain cancer..."

Guan Zu: “…………”

Guan Zu turned around and said to John and the others, "Sorry... I have something to do, so I have to leave first. I'll be back before the meeting this afternoon!"

bid farewell,

go away.

……

20 minutes later,
Mingxin Hospital.

At the door, a black Chevrolet stopped in front of the hospital.

"Boss~~"

"Boss~~"

Guan Zu got out of the car and walked quickly into the hospital with Gong Wei.

Along the way, many doctors and nurses saluted respectfully after seeing Guan Zu.

Among the crowd, there were a few people who were the 8th batch of medical staff from mainland China who came to Hong Kong for exchange and study. They were from Chengdu, had just arrived, and were not very familiar with Hong Kong.

"Wow, this guy is so handsome."

"Is it the boss?"

"He is the boss of Five Star Group? Now I remember, it's really him!"

"CCTV has broadcast him~~so handsome!"

After another year of construction, Mingxin Hospital has become even larger.

It is larger than the largest hospital of the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals and has more departments. On the one hand, Guan Zu’s “medical halo” has an obvious effect, and the medical effect is much better than other hospitals, resulting in a better reputation and more and more patients coming here.

On the other hand, we have recruited many highly skilled doctors from the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals and other major hospitals, and together with the growing team of doctors and nurses from domestic exchanges, we have made the team more diversified and professional.

At present, Mingxin Hospital is N times stronger than when Guan Zu first acquired it. It is a truly large comprehensive hospital.

Guan Zu went all the way to the inpatient department and then to the neurosurgery inpatient ward.

One of the wards.

Guan Zu walked in.

Chen Guozhong was lying on the hospital bed and Ma Jun was peeling fruit for him.

"Brother Zu..."

Guan Zu put the fruit on the table and couldn't help asking, "Why did you find out now? Doesn't the police force have a physical examination every year?"

Chen Guozhong was a little embarrassed: "I thought I was in good health, so I didn't go for a check-up."

Ma Jun said, "During the meeting today, Mr. Chen suddenly had a nosebleed. We were scared and rushed him to the hospital. The doctor checked and found that it was brain cancer. The location was not very good. It was nearly 2 centimeters in size and it was in the late stage. It was difficult to perform surgery."

"Late?"

"Yes, it's in the late stage, a terminal illness..." Ma Jun felt a little sad.

Guan Zu glared at Chen Guozhong and said, "Didn't I remind you to come to the hospital for a checkup? You nodded. You were just trying to fool me."

Chen Guozhong apologized: "I'm sorry."

Guan Zu was a little angry: "Sorry, what are you going to do now? You don't have a wife, and you don't even have a child."

In the entire police force, Guan Zu and Chen Guozhong have the best relationship, because Chen Guozhong and Guan Zu knew each other the earliest, and there is also the Seraph level.

When Guan Zu heard that Chen Guozhong had cancer, he felt very sorry for him.

Chen Guozhong Xianyu: "Life and death are determined by fate, and wealth and honor are determined by heaven. This may be destined by heaven."

Guan Zu wanted to curse after hearing this.

"Okay, okay, you're the one who's free and easy, right?"

However, seeing Chen Guozhong's appearance, Guan Zu couldn't scold him.

Hey!
I want to hit someone!
------------

ps: Chen Guozhong will not die, he will just be given a different life.

Finally, I will ask for monthly tickets~~
