Rebirth: Rising Hong Kong

Chapter 1054: Freshly baked, protégé of the Son of Heaven!

According to normal procedures, Hong Kong Governor Dai Lingzhi will officially resign in October, that is, next month, and return to the UK.

New Hong Kong Governor Mak Liho will officially replace him as the 25th Governor of Hong Kong at that time, and start to manage Hong Kong, becoming a well-deserved "one prince" of the British Empire!

However, there is also a rule in private that the two of them have to change shifts in the church "with the help of religious ceremony" one month in advance. Mai Lihao began to perform his duties as the acting Hong Kong governor, and gradually grasped the power of the Hong Kong governor.

This kind of ceremony is held in a church, which is somewhat similar to the coronation ceremony of the Pope. Basically, the most popular celebrities in Hong Kong are invited, and it is not open to the public, let alone news reports.

That is to say, after the ceremony today, Dai Lingzhi will completely delegate power, start the vacation mode, and go back to the UK in a month.

Mak Lihao started the mode of acting as the governor of Hong Kong and gradually adapted to the life of the governor of Hong Kong. If he didn't understand anything, he could "seek advice" from the former governor of Hong Kong, Dai Lingzhi.

September 11, 1951.

The handover ceremony of the old and new Hong Kong governors was held at St. John's Cathedral, Central Sheng Kung Hui.

The secretary of the Hong Kong government of Hong Kong Governor Dai Lingzhi and the private secretary of the future Hong Kong Governor Mak Lihao stood side by side with smiles on their faces. They stood outside St. John's Cathedral to welcome the bigwigs who were invited to watch the ceremony. .

These bigwigs either have prominent positions in the Hong Kong government, or they are all-powerful in the business world. Every one who stands up and stomps can make the whole of Hong Kong shake!

As the spokespersons of the Governor of Hong Kong, the two secretaries smiled brightly. Each time they welcomed a VIP, the smiles on their faces increased, and they led each other into the church earnestly.

The police had received the news earlier, and they came to maintain order early in the morning. They set up troops outside the church, strictly guarded the police line, and prevented outsiders, especially those media reporters, from breaking in.

Han Sen and Lan Gang, the two most powerful inspectors in Hong Kong, were also invited over today, but they didn't come to watch the ceremony. They didn't have the qualifications, and their status didn't reach that level. Instead, they were invited to divert traffic and maintain law and order.

Han Sen swept away the black mouth and black face before, and it was rare to squeeze a smile on a stern face.

Lan Gang has changed his appearance as a dangling man in the past. The checkered shirt has been replaced by a black suit with a pen body, and his hair is meticulously groomed.

At this time, the two were guiding the driver or entourage of those visitors on the road in the distance, and parked the car far away to avoid blocking the traffic.

As for those media reporters who came to grab the news and wanted to make headlines, they were collectively sent to the side for "immediate inspection", checking their ID cards, checking whether they were carrying weapons, etc. These reporters had two big heads!

In addition, on the inner layer of these police officers, there are dozens of "G4" agents wearing black suits and sunglasses, carrying walkie-talkies, and looking like hawks!

"The eagle calls for the sparrow! The eagle calls for the sparrow! Another boss is coming! You can see clearly, it's Sir Bailiqu, the director. Everyone is on alert, and you must protect the safety of Sir Baili!"

"Sparrow received! Sparrow received! We have placed plain clothes around to make sure nothing goes wrong!"

As a former G4 operative elite, Li Wenbin was recommended by Shi Zhijian to be the head of the security work, and was solely responsible for the handover of the ceremony.

For Li Wenbin, it can be described as a heavy responsibility. Of course, if it is done well, it will be an amazing credit.

To tell the truth, Li Wenbin never thought that such a good thing would fall on him.

According to past traditions, the security responsible for this kind of big event will assign those ghosts to control it, and the Chinese can only help out. Then, when something went wrong, the Chinese came to take the blame, and when the credit was given, the ghosts stood up to receive the reward.

But this time, the Hong Kong government has assigned him, a Chinese, to take charge of such an important task for the first time in the past, and it was impossible to even think about it before.

Of course, Li Wenbin knew that he was able to stand out this time thanks to Shi Zhijian, a member of the Legislative Council who admired him.

If Shi Zhijian hadn't recommended each other in front of the two Hong Kong governors, he wouldn't have had the opportunity to be promoted like this.

For Shi Zhijian, Li Wenbin is absolutely grateful!

Sir Bailiqu got off the special car, and the surrounding bodyguards rushed forward to **** him into the church.

All the bigwigs in the church greeted him when they saw him. After all, where is Bailiqu's status and status, no one has to give him face.

"Hello, Sir!"

"Sir, you have worked hard!"

Bailiqu shook hands with these bigwigs one by one and talked, "The Governor of Hong Kong is on the edge?"

"They're over there!"

"Okay, I'll go say hello."

Inside the church, the Hong Kong Legislative Council, the Secretary for Administration, the Urban Construction Department, the Planning Department, the Commissioner of Police, the Chief Superintendent of Police and others were present.

Among these police officers, in addition to Chinese Superintendent Lei Luo, there are also Chinese Superintendent Chen Zhichao, and Chief Superintendent Ge Bai, who has been sold by Shi Zhijian.

Seeing that Sir Bailiqu came over with a civilization stick, everyone gave up the passage one after another.

Bailiqu went straight forward and greeted Dai Lingzhi and Mai Lihao gracefully.

Everyone here is still chatting. Outside the church, Li Wenbin received news that legislator Shi Zhijian is here!

The appearance of Shi Zhijian made all the audience around him excited.

Although star chasing is not yet popular in this era, Shi Zhijian's popularity has skyrocketed throughout Hong Kong. Coupled with Shi Zhijian's image of a super handsome boy in white, countless boys and girls, aunts and aunts are crazy about it.

"Shi Zhijian!"

"It's Shi Zhijian!"

The surrounding audience shouted.

Such an intense scene made other VIPs look sideways. When they saw that Shi Zhijian was coming, everyone had a variety of feelings in their hearts. They also came here to watch the ceremony. They were treated like big stars, but they were deserted.

What's more, some ghosts couldn't help but complain about Shi Zhijian: "Cut! Isn't it a handsome boy? What's so amazing! We are noble British!"

At this time, his companions attacked him and said, "It seems that this Shi Zhijian is about to go to England to be awarded an honor----he is a baron!"

Tucao ghost guy immediately shut up, although he is British, he is not a fart!

As Shi Zhijian's good eldest brother, Lei Luo couldn't help but feel happy when he heard Shi Zhijian's arrival. From the very beginning, he felt that there were too many ghosts, and all of them had eyes on his forehead, which couldn't be dragged! It feels so depressing to be in this environment! It is rare for Shi Zhijian to appear to break this depression and let these Chinese people breathe a sigh of relief!

Amid the cheers of the crowd, Shi Zhijian walked to the church in white.

Bailiqu was talking to the two Hong Kong governors when he heard a pot being exploded outside.

For Shi Zhijian's **** popularity, Bailiqu is also full of disgust, but there is nothing he can do!

...

At this time, the handover ceremony of the Hong Kong Governor is about to start, the door of the church is creaking and closed, and all the guests invited to watch the ceremony have arrived.

Unlike other events in Hong Kong where hundreds and thousands of people attend, only the top 300 people in Hong Kong were invited to the handover ceremony of the Hong Kong Governor this time!

Among these 300 people, government officials account for two-thirds, and the remaining one-third are tycoons who are well-known in Hong Kong's political and business circles. Among them, the proportion of Chinese is the smallest, and most of them are the Kadoorie family. , the Keswick family, and members of the Shi Huai Ya family!

Among the Chinese, in addition to the Ho family and the Ma family in Macau who have a good relationship with the British Hong Kong government, the Bao family, the Zheng family, and the Li family in Hong Kong are lucky enough to be invited to watch the ceremony. Wait, like the Huo family, the Li family was not invited.

The Huo family is not on the right track with the Hong Kong British government, so it is not surprising to be invited. As for the Lee family, they have been looked down upon by the ghosts because of their declining prestige in recent years.

It can be said that there were about 300 people present, of which more than 200 were blond and blue-eyed ghosts. Originally, these ghosts were supposed to play the leading role today, but unexpectedly, before the opening ceremony, a Chinese congressman Shi Zhijian stole the limelight! Don't mention the taste in the hearts of many ghosts.

Shi Zhijian entered the church and said hello to everyone, just as the ceremony officially started, so he stood by and watched the ceremony with interest.

Shi Zhijian wanted to keep a low profile, so he was standing in a remote place on the side of the church, but before he knew it, many Chinese people had already gathered behind him----Bao, Zheng, Li, Ma, He and others They all hugged him and stood in a row just to form a confrontation with Bailiqu, Henry, Allen and other ghosts.

Most of the British believe in Christianity. Whether it is Dai Lingzhi or Mai Lihao, they are both Christian converts. At the beginning of the ceremony, the two held candles. Under the auspices of the church godfather, the two carried out the handover ceremony.

Everyone watched silently, except for the chirping of the godfather, there was no sound around.

The outgoing Hong Kong Governor Dai Lingzhi had a very calm expression on his face. He no longer had the prestige of the past, nor the reluctance and anxiety that he had before his abdication. At this moment, he seemed to have really become a devout believer, full of happiness and happiness. serene.

In contrast, Mai Lihao, who was about to ascend to the top, could not hide his inner joy, and his eyes and hair tips revealed a hint of high-spiritedness of the superior.

The ceremony is just five or six minutes, and it's over!

Everyone around felt like a century had passed.

It can be said that at the moment of the handover of the old and new Hong Kong Governors, the hearts of countless people on the scene have undergone drastic changes.

An era has passed, and a new era is coming!

For those British Hong Kong officials, if they want to assist a new king again, they need to re-plan their outlook on life and values ​​- no matter what they are, they must be in line with the Governor of Hong Kong!

As a senior official of the British Hong Kong government, Sir Bailiqu's heart is even more complicated at this moment.

In the era of Dai Lingzhi, he did a lot of things that were beneficial to the citizens, but he also had a bad relationship with Mai Lihao because of his election for Hong Kong governor.

Now that Mai Lihao's overall situation has been decided and he has become the next Hong Kong Governor, he is no longer qualified to aspire to this throne, and his inner loss can be imagined.

The only thing that comforts Bailiqu is that Mai Lihao is a smart person. He was not favored by everyone because of his withdrawn personality, so many people offended Mai Lihao.

However, Mai Lihao used the establishment of the Independent Commission Against Corruption and invited his biggest enemy Bailiqu to be the person in charge. This move indirectly told everyone, especially those who were uneasy about Mai Lihao's superior position. I, Mai Lihao, are the only ones. Take it, there will never be a public revenge!

This gave everyone a reassurance, and today's situation is smooth and transitional.

"Maybe I underestimated him from the beginning! With such a scheming and mind, this Mai Lihao should not be underestimated!" Bailiqu leaned on the civilization stick and couldn't help sighing as he watched the handover ceremony that was completed in front of him.

Mak Lihao took over the scepter representing the status of Hong Kong governor, turned around and said a few words to everyone, roughly meaning that he will manage Hong Kong well according to God's will, and how to do his best for the prosperity and stability of Hong Kong.

After the speech, there was applause from the audience.

Shi Zhijian stood on the side and applauded.

Lai Luo, who followed Shi Zhijian, watched these ghosts play so many bells and whistles and couldn't help but be curious.

Immediately afterwards, Mai Lihao raised his scepter again and said, "According to our traditional rules, as the incoming governor of Hong Kong, I have the right and responsibility to call an outstanding person, especially those who have not yet joined Christianity, to become our believers. …”

Lai Luo stretched out his hand and pulled Shi Zhijian's shirt: "Ajian, what are you doing? What is this ghost guy Mai Lihao talking about?"

"He wants to make disciples."

"Uh, does that work too?"

"There's nothing wrong with them. They can give their own merits when they guide people to teach. Of course, now he is the governor of Hong Kong. If he chooses whoever he chooses, he will be his disciple in the future!"

"Wow~www.wuxiamtl.com~ It's so sharp! I didn't know that this group of ghosts had such a blessing!" Lai Luo looked at the ghosts on the opposite side, whose eyes showed anticipation, and their expressions became nervous.

In fact, no wonder these people are nervous.

Mak Lihao is now the Governor of Hong Kong, and being his disciple is like being covered by him, and he will be able to walk sideways in Hong Kong in the future!

In addition, many of these ghosts have actually entered Christianity, but this does not affect their re-entry in order to be "protege of the emperor"!

"Isn't that old guy from Bailiqu? His hair is all white. If he became Mai Lihao's apprentice, it wouldn't be a loss?" Lai Luo teased aside, "And that ghost Henry, Alan , the two of them used to be on the wrong track with Mai Lihao, looking at their eyes now, I can't wait to kneel down and call Dad!"

Shi Zhijian is noncommittal. For many people, it is a great honor and even great luck to be a disciple of the Son of Heaven!

In particular, Shi Zhijian clearly knew that Mak Liho, who served as the 25th Governor of Hong Kong from 1971 to 1982, served for 10 and a half years before and after, and was re-elected four times. He is the longest-serving Governor of Hong Kong in the history of Hong Kong. .

"Now I'm announcing that the person I've chosen is—" Mai Lihao raised his scepter and glanced around for a week.

The ghosts in the whole church were all nervous.

The Chinese were waiting to watch the play.

"Shi Zhijian!"

With a bang, the scene exploded!

Those ghosts are all dumbfounded! how is this possible? He actually chose a Chinese?

The Chinese at the scene even dropped their jaws! what happened? We got the winner here? !

Lei Luo, who was standing behind Shi Zhijian, almost fell out of his eyes, and pulled out his ears, "Am I right? Ah Jian, you have been chosen!"
