Hong Kong Variety Show: Let you eat melons, eat melons on your sister-in-law

Chapter 422 "422" Cai Yuanqi Steps Down
Leung Siu-tong chuckled and said, "That's right, I think everyone from the Brotherhood is here, right?"

"Our boss has something to tell you: playing within the rules will ensure you have some dignity!"

"But if you try to play anything else, don't blame our boss for being impolite!"

"I won't disturb your meeting any longer, see you later!"

After saying that, Liang Xiaotang hung up the phone.

The phone that was then delivered started counting down on its screen.

"What is this thing!" The Brotherhood members were all startled, thinking that Lin Yao had planted a bomb inside.

However, after the numbers returned to zero, the phone did explode, but only a bright light was emitted, burning out the internal components and eliminating the possibility of being tracked.

However, this thing was just Lin Yao's wicked hobby, and it was a product from his own laboratory, specifically designed to scare people.

"That Lin Yao!" Chris Patten's face darkened. "He's becoming more and more brazen!"

"Does he think he can do whatever he wants just because he has someone backing him up?" Anderson said viciously.

Cai Yuanqi looked at everyone in a panic and said, "What... what do I do now?!"

"What can we do? You can't even manage one person properly, and so many scandals have been exposed!" Chris Patten said irritably. "If you don't step down, then the police force's top brass can expect a major purge!"

"I don't think the mainland will let this go easily either. You know, they've already bribed quite a few lawmakers to oppose us!"

Upon hearing Chris Patten's words, Cai Yuanqi immediately turned pale.

He is probably the Commissioner of Police with the shortest tenure among all the Commissioners of Police in Hong Kong.

It will definitely become a laughing stock.

However, now that even foreigners don't support him, he doesn't have any better options.

This position is definitely not going to stay.

It was only at this moment that Cai Yuanqi realized that foreigners were damn unreliable!
After everyone had discussed and agreed, they made the decision without even asking Cai Yuanqi's opinion.

Cai Yuanqi didn't say much, but other thoughts arose in his mind.

The following day, as agreed with Lin Yao, Cai Yuanqi held a press conference and chose to resign to take responsibility.

With Cai Yuanqi gone, the police force was thrown into chaos once again.

Fortunately, another candidate was quickly chosen to fill the position. However, this time the candidate was not selected from the list of deputy commissioners of police, but from among the assistant commissioners.

This guy is Zeng Xiangrong, a complete localist.

This person is neither biased towards the mainland nor towards foreigners; this was an explanation given by Chris Patten to appease Lam Yiu.

……

"Hehe, I knew it, that old bastard Chris Patten would do that!" Lin Yao was having tea with Big Circle Leopard.

Big Circle Leopard laughed and said, "Even a fool could guess that the last governor of Hong Kong would never allow any right-wing individuals to enter the police force's upper echelons."

"In two years, it won't be his turn anymore!" Lin Yao said with a smile. "You guys must have made quite a few arrangements within the police force, right? Besides the candidate I introduced?"

Big Circle Leopard nodded: "That's right. After Hong Kong returns to China, there will definitely be reforms, and the structure of the Three Departments and Thirteen Bureaus will be adopted!"

Lin Yao said with some surprise, "It seems you had already made preparations?"

"Of course, this kind of thing should be done in advance, so as not to be caught off guard after returning!" Big Leopard said with a smile.

Lin Yao nodded and said, "In that case, I won't say anything more!"

Big Circle Leopard asked curiously, "I heard you're in talks with several major telecom operators back in your hometown about telecom service operations?"

Lin Yao immediately became alert: "What's wrong? Is someone trying to interfere?"

Big Circle Leopard said somewhat embarrassedly, "Indeed, some people have that intention!" "Heh, it seems quite a few people are eyeing me!" Lin Yao said with a sneer.

Big Circle Leopard quickly waved his hand and said, "It's not about coercion or bribery, it's purely cooperation."

Lin Yao said calmly, "We can discuss the cooperation next time I go to the mainland. I've already promised several major operators this, so what will they think of me if I change my mind now?"

The big-circled leopard touched its nose: "I knew you'd react this way!"

Lin Yao said irritably, "Then why did you ask?"

"I had no choice, I was asked to do it!" Big Leopard waved his hand and said, "It's just a question, don't overthink it!"

"If I were overthinking things, I wouldn't be wasting my breath talking to you here!" Lin Yao said calmly.

The leopard looked at Lin Yao with increasing majesty.

I couldn't help but sigh.

Lin Yao is no longer the same Lin Yao who was eager to cooperate.

He's doing very well in his collaborations in the United States; he hasn't put all his eggs in one basket.

Perhaps it was because of what happened before that Lin Yao felt threatened, which led him to make this change!
Thinking of this, the big-circled leopard couldn't help but sigh.

In short, the two sides have drifted further and further apart.

What Big Circle Leopard didn't know was that Lin Yao never intended to devote himself entirely to his hometown.

Although my hometown did develop quite well in the period that followed.

But the opportunities abroad are much greater.

Moreover, Lin Yao's ambitions do not allow him to be simply used as a spokesperson.

He hopes to leave his mark on this era.

Making this choice was, in fact, inevitable.

……

That concludes the matter concerning the police force.

Lin Yao's methods made these foreigners much more obedient, and they stopped attacking the police.

After all, causing the police force to collapse wouldn't benefit Lin Yao either.

Moreover, Zeng Xiangrong is a very proper guy, so there's still a possibility of cooperation between the two sides.

For example, after Zeng Xiangrong took office as Commissioner of Police, he immediately promoted a group of people.

Those who are capable of getting things done have been promoted back to the top.

For example, Raymond and others were transferred from clerical positions to departments with real power.

Those who tried to take advantage of the situation were all reassigned to positions similar to welfare departments.

After all, frontline police officers still need these people to operate.

Soon, the frontline police officers discovered that all the benefits they had been missing had returned.

This immediately put their minds at ease.

Frontline police officers like Li Wenbin have also received promotions.

In Li Shutang's old house, he sighed and said to Li Wenbin, "I really didn't expect that Lin Yao's methods would be so sharp, that he could defeat Cai Yuanqi so quickly!"

Li Wenbin said dismissively, "It's not that Lin Yao is so skilled, it's that Cai Yuanqi is too incompetent!"
