"Hahaha." The Hong Kong Governor heard the answer of "Han Liguo" and laughed heartily.
Han Liguo looked reserved and stood quietly beside him.
Obviously, he was showing his loyalty to the Governor of Hong Kong by rejecting Zhuang Shikai.
Politicians are all human beings.
Although he met with Zhuang Shikai in advance and may have been of good help in taking over the police force, as the police commissioner handpicked by Melis, he had reached political cooperation with Melis in his ancestral home.
The two have the same political goals and are firm political allies. He has already known the purpose of coming to Hong Kong Island to perform his duties.
Therefore, he knew very well where his position stood, and he directly rejected Zhuang Shikai's "want to talk" in a cold way.
Therefore, South Korea's attempt to save Mr. Zhuang's face is not stupidity, but a political method.
Every step a politician takes has a meaning, and he must rely on actions to express his position to his superiors...
Otherwise, what should I do if I just talk but don’t do anything and get involved with Sir Zhuang again?
Taking advantage of Ge Bai's experience, Malis was very careful about this. One wrong step in South Korea's policy might arouse Malis's suspicion, thus losing the trust of the Hong Kong Governor and his own political prospects.
Sure enough, Mr. Hong Kong Governor smiled very happily at this time and was very satisfied with his attitude. He stepped forward and patted his shoulder gently and asked: "Aren't you afraid of offending Mr. Ge Bai?"
"Afraid! But I'm even more afraid of offending you!" Han Li said silently in his heart, but on the surface he said sternly: "I believe Mr. Ge Bai is a gentleman with grace and will not blame me for a small mistake. .”
Anyway, he pretended not to have received the news on the surface, and those who don’t know are not guilty... Naturally, the Hong Kong Governor will fight for his private opinions and revenge. After all, he is with the Hong Kong Governor...
The Hong Kong Governor nodded in approval and said, "That's right."
"Mr. Ge Bai is a person who pays attention to grace."
As for the word "gentleman," he really couldn't say it.
In his eyes, Ge Bai was a selfish villain.
Han Hanli quickly nodded in agreement: "Yes."
"Mr. Governor."
"Haha." Melis walked to the tall black bookcase, opened the glass cabinet door, opened the drawer, took out a cigar, turned around and handed it to Han Hanli, and said with a smile: "Then you are not afraid of Police Zhuang. Do Si and his subordinates have any objections?"
Han Guoli took the thick Cuban cigar, put it under his nose and sniffed lightly against his stubble, and said with a smile: "I am confident that I can manage the Hong Kong police force well."
Melis smiled warmly at the same time, stepped forward, patted Han Li on the shoulder and said, "I believe in your ability."
The Governor and the new Police Commissioner looked at each other and smiled, their brows full of confidence, as if they had forgotten how they had failed and what ground they were stepping on.
Today, Mr. Hong Kong Governor, who has so many things to do, rarely spares more than an hour to meet with his subordinates.
According to statistics from the Governor's Secretariat, this is the longest time the Governor spent alone meeting with his subordinates this year. The rest of the longer time was spent in meetings or meeting with representatives from other regions...
I believe that during this hour or so, Mr. Governor and the new Director not only chatted and laughed, chatting about daily trivial matters, but also exchanged specific administrative measures and administrative policies.
Therefore, in the afternoon of the same day, the Hong Kong Government Government officially issued a government announcement to officially disclose the news of the replacement of the Commissioner of Police next Friday.
For a time, there was a lot of discussion within the police force, government agencies, and citizens.
The news also followed suit.
However, the current Police Commissioner "Ge Bai" retired and the new Police Commissioner "Han Hanli" took over.
This is no secret among the top management of each department, so public opinion is only discussing the background and stance of Han Li, and fermenting the matter of succession...
After all, it is normal for department heads to change...
Everyone does not care about the change of office itself, only the actions of the new director.
The news that Sir Zhuang took people to greet the director but was avoided by the director quickly leaked out among the Chinese in the police force, which immediately made the Chinese police officers feel nervous and felt a sense of crisis.
That night.
South Korea held an arrival banquet at the Peninsula Hotel.
Almost all the prominent political and business figures in Hong Kong were present.
In addition to the chief executives of each department, there are also many confidential officials and department adjutants.
A few wealthy Chinese businessmen could also be vaguely seen mixed in among them.
What is surprising is that even the Governor of Hong Kong, Mr. Mak, was present in person. He not only drank and chatted with Han Li in the box, but also walked to the hall with a wine glass and happily clinked glasses with some guests to drink. Many guests were flattered and surprised.
You know, Governor MacGong rarely appears at private banquets except for port affairs occasions. This time I made a special trip to clean up the situation for Director Han. It could be said that I was giving Director Han face and standing up for Director Han.
However, Zhuang Shikai, Mr. Shao and others were not invited by Hanli...
Ge Bai also declined to attend the banquet...
Therefore, despite the lively atmosphere at the banquet, the guests who came to the banquet were all sharp-eyed. Just by looking at who came and who didn’t, you could immediately realize that there are currently two forces competing within the Hong Kong Island Police Force. , the competition in the future may be extremely fierce.
Fortunately, internal wrestling has standards and rules.
The next two police chiefs have a week to hand over.
The handover went very smoothly during this week. Both parties were well prepared and there was no deliberate obstruction.
December.
day 30th.
The last day of Director Ge Bai's term.
evening.
get off work.
Ge Bai left the director's office holding the last box of personal belongings. He saw several security police officers in suits and a Yangma secretary in short skirts. Each of them followed Mr. Ge Bai holding a cardboard box. Get into the elevator.
"Ding dong." The elevator reached the first floor. Ge Bai took the carton and a group of people out of the elevator, raised his legs and walked towards the door.
All the police officers and police officers who met him along the way stood at attention and saluted, and to show their dignity, they shouted loudly: "Goodbey, sir!"
""goodbey. "Ge Bai smiled and nodded gently. His expression was much warmer than before, and he revealed a feeling of affection from inside to outside.
The uniforms and epaulettes that used to represent the position of Commissioner of Police have also been returned to the laundry room of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for preservation.
The new Commissioner of Police will have a brand new custom-made uniform.
The uniforms of each Commissioner of Police will be retained in the Ministry of Home Affairs.
Finally, Ge Bai walked to the main gate of the headquarters, stopped for a moment, and looked back at the royal police badge in front of the building and the door plaque of the police station, with reluctance in his eyes.
He has held the highest authority in this building for more than ten years and is the longest-serving police commissioner in the history of Hong Kong Island. He has experienced several different periods and witnessed with his own eyes the development and changes of Hong Kong Island since its opening as a port.
Although he is a "ghost" who rules Hong Kong Island as an "invader", but the length of history is diluted to an individual, it is impossible to deny his feelings for Hong Kong Island, especially the emotions before leaving.
What's more, although he has not made any substantial contribution to the development of Hong Kong Island, he has wisely taken a correct stand. The status and treatment of Chinese police officers have increased significantly in recent years. Most of them are Chinese police officers who have worked hard with their blood and sweat. Some of those who came out came from recognition and support.
Therefore, the Chinese people in the police force have a fairly positive evaluation of Ge Bai, and they treat him with enough respect and courtesy.
"Oh." Ge Bai sighed and walked to the administrative car. The security police officer, secretary and others put the carton into the trunk with him.
An executive car is a business car.
He no longer has the benefits of a No. 1 license plate.
After putting away his personal belongings, the secretary stepped forward and said, "Sir, all your personal belongings have been put away."
"Your personal belongings from the Director's official residence at No. 50 Magisen Gap Road have also been moved out."
Ge Bai opened the door, sat in the back seat, nodded and said: "Go to the Peninsula Hotel."
"Yes, sir."
The secretary responded quietly.
Then she got into the co-pilot, and the security officers got into the last two cars. The group drove away from the police station building. Ge Bai would never come back again.
Zhuang Shikai stood in the Criminal Division office and lowered the curtains. He said softly with clear eyes, "Bon voyage."
"Sir Zhuang." At this time, Ma Jun walked into the office with a cup of coffee. Zhuang Shikai turned around and took the coffee, sat down on the desk, and began to explain a few words to Ma Zai, who was in the headquarters.
As for "Ge Bai"'s retirement ceremony, it has been held in the afternoon, and the senior police officers within the General Administration have also met the new director "Korean Li".
The next day is the day when "Korean Prime Minister" will take office.
the next day.
Eight o'clock in the morning.
Today is also the day when Ge Bai takes a flight to leave Hong Kong.
Next to the landing gear of a British Airways plane, several black cars were lined up.
Zhuang Shikai, Cai Yuanqi, Zhou Huabiao, and Li Shutang stood in front of the car. They were all in suits and leather shoes, full of energy and very serious.
At this time, Ge Bai slowly walked out of the boarding aisle dragging a suitcase, and accompanied by two security personnel, came to the landing gear to prepare for boarding.
When he saw Zhuang Shikai waiting there with his people, his eyes immediately showed surprise, and he said in surprise: "Zhuang!"
"How did you come?"
He stepped forward and patted Zhuang Shikai on the shoulder, his expression very happy.
The security personnel carried his luggage onto the plane first.
Zhuang Shikai, Cai Yuanqi and others stood at attention and saluted, shouting loudly: "On behalf of the Chinese police officers, my subordinates sent the chief to leave Hong Kong!"
"I wish the chief to succeed in his election campaign back to his ancestral home and be elected to power!"
"I wish you success in returning to your ancestral home to run for office and be elected to power!" Cai Yuanqi, Zhou Huabiao and Li Shutang followed closely and shouted.
Ge Bai's eyes flashed with tears, and his heart was filled with emotion. He hugged Sir Zhuang gently and said, "Thank you very much."
"I promised."
"I'll see you off when you leave Hong Kong." Zhuang Shikai smiled and gave Ge Bai a very decent ending.
What is emeritus? Wearing red colors and delivering medals in the Hong Kong Police Force is not called retirement! Only when Sir Zhuang sees you off in person is it called retirement!
Ge Bai sighed with comfort: "Thank you for still remembering this sentence."
"Come to me in London when you have time."
"I'll show you London's hospitality..."
Then he raised his watch and said, "I'm boarding the plane first."
"You can go back now in time to attend the safety meeting."
