Hong Kong Variety Show: From Little Brother to Big Boss

The newspapers' coverage of the early morning gang fights and the thug incidents in Central and Western Districts led to an intensification of public opinion, and the emotions of the Hong Kong residents were completely ignited.

People were talking about it on the streets, expressing strong dissatisfaction and concern about the silence of the Hong Kong police and the violent acts of the community.

In this context, the senior executives of Hong Kong Island who had just returned from the Tsukamoto Group banquet held a meeting immediately. The director exclaimed that he had been careless when he learned that the police operators had collectively disappeared in the early hours of the morning.

They first personally warned the major newspapers and took punitive measures against the Oriental Daily. Then they held an emergency press conference to explain the police's response to the public.

At the press conference, the police spokesman looked solemn. He first admitted that the police did not respond quickly enough in the early stages of the incident and expressed his sincere apologies to the affected citizens.

"We are fully aware of citizens' desire for safety and their expectations of the police."

"Throughout the entire process, we were deceived by corrupt internal elements, which led to our slow response. We deeply reflect on this."

He further pointed out that the police have arrested several people involved in the incident.

At the same time, it also stated that it would severely punish corrupt elements within the organization, and would announce the names and results of the handling on TVB's evening news to give an explanation to the general public and strive to fundamentally resolve the problem.

In response to the concerns of the public, a police spokesman said:

"We always stick to our posts and are committed to maintaining social order on Hong Kong Island."

Although we encountered some difficulties in the early morning incident, we will never give up our efforts. We will continue to strengthen patrols and prevention and control efforts to ensure the safety of citizens’ lives and property.”

In addition, the police also called on citizens to remain calm and rational and not to believe in rumors and hearsay. They said that the police will release authoritative information in a timely manner to ensure that citizens understand the truth and progress of the incident.

After the press conference, although some citizens expressed understanding and acceptance of the police's explanation, many people were still skeptical about the police's performance.

They believe that the police responded too slowly to the incident and did not crack down hard enough on community violence.

However, in any case, this press conference marked the official response of the Hong Kong Island police to the early morning gang fight.

As for the opinions of Hong Kong Island residents, who cares? Children without mothers are not valued.

Moreover, due to the daily necessities of life, citizens simply do not have much time to pay attention to what measures the police will take against the community groups, nor do they have time to pay attention to the subsequent consequences of the thugs.

Their focus will always be on whether this month's salary can be paid on time and whether today's work can be completed on time.

Those behind the plan clearly don't have high hopes for working people.

As the incident continued to ferment, different voices gradually emerged in universities across Hong Kong Island.

It is 8:40 pm Hong Kong time, which is the time when all the universities in Hong Kong Island finish their evening studies.

In the four major areas of Central, Tsim Sha Tsui East and Sha Tin, tens of thousands of students suddenly appeared in the streets, holding banners and marching on the streets, shouting in unison: "Clear up the society and give us peace back to Hong Kong Island."

The banner was printed with big words: "Support the negotiations on Hong Kong Island. We will not be children without mothers."

This sudden student march quickly attracted the attention of the entire Hong Kong Island, and instantly shifted the focus of discussion on the streets to the students' actions.

On social media, topics such as "student marches" and "cleaning societies" quickly heated up and became the focus.

The leaders of the four major societies who learned of this were inexplicably shocked, and quickly and sternly announced that all the leaders of the various places must not take any action today. Anyone who dared not to obey would be punished according to the strict family rules.

The real storm is coming, and reducing actions and avoiding becoming the focus of police crackdowns will allow them to better weather the storm.

As for being completely liquidated, they are not worried at all. There are limited jobs in Hong Kong Island, which leads to too many unemployed people. Complete liquidation will only make Hong Kong Island more chaotic.

After receiving the news from his subordinates, Director Yang rushed to Tsim Sha Tsui and looked at the students' banners with tears in his eyes, his voice choking:

"Quick, use the radio to spread this news to the people in the north. Let them know that the people of Hong Kong Island are still with us."

At the Central Police Station on Hong Kong Island, the Commissioner of Police, Koon Yiu-fu, almost roared at the senior assistant commissioner, ordering the police to mobilize force and evacuate all students as quickly as possible.

At 8:45, the lights in the city gradually became brighter.

The deputy minister who received the news from Hong Kong Island quickly handed it over to Minister Ye Xiangnan. Realizing that this could add leverage to the negotiations, he quickly knocked on the door of No. 1 Mansion.

In just two minutes, an order was quickly issued from the No. 1 Mansion to summon newspapers from various countries stationed in Beijing. The press conference would be officially opened in the auditorium in seven minutes.

Time is very tight.

At 8:55, in the auditorium, under the focus of the lights, the steady and powerful voice of the 'Commander-in-Chief' echoed in everyone's ears.

“Dear media friends, we are gathered here tonight because of a moving and profound event – ​​the spontaneous march of many students.”

"They expressed their deep desire for peace and tranquility through their actions."

He looked around, his eyes revealing determination and hope. "These young voices are the hope for the future of Hong Kong Island and the future of the country. Their cries are the most direct resistance to violence."

"We are pleased to see that even in the midst of turmoil, the people of Hong Kong Island still have a strong sense of belonging to our northern great country. This emotion is a bond that no force can sever."

“The students’ march is not only a response to the current situation, but also a call for historical justice and a yearning for family unity.”

The commander-in-chief's tone became more serious. "We have noticed that a series of events that have occurred in Hong Kong Island recently have seriously undermined social harmony and harmed the vital interests of the citizens."

He further pointed out that "in response to the deep-seated problems reflected by this student march, we will speed up negotiations with Britain on the Hong Kong issue and explore more effective solutions."

“Finally, I want to say to all the students who participated in the march that your courage and responsibility are admirable. Please believe that we will always be your strongest support.”

After the speech, warm applause broke out in the venue. Media reporters raised their hands to ask questions, hoping to get more information.

'The Commander-in-Chief stressed the Northern Powerhouse's unchanging support for Hong Kong Island and its positive outlook for future cooperation and development.

Before the press conference was over, the commander-in-chief's speech was transmitted to 10 Downing Street, and Sachir's face turned pale in an instant.

At the same time, a newspaper company suddenly distributed free newspapers in cities across Britain, reporting the speech of the "commander-in-chief" of the northern power.

Among them, the statement "If the negotiation process continues to be deadlocked, we will not hesitate to use tough measures to withdraw" quickly sparked heated discussions in Britain.

For a time, demonstrations about "peace talks" emerged on the streets of the foggy city.
