Chapter 251 Arrest
From the start of negotiations in September 1982 to the release of the Sino-British joint statement in December 1984, countless Chinese people were hoping for the return of Hong Kong, which they had finally entered the countdown.
However, not all "Chinese" are happy about this. As the date of return in 1997 approached, the British increased their efforts to squeeze the Hong Kong economy. Some Hong Kong people who did not trust the central government also began to seek ways to immigrate. In this social context, Hong Kong society did not experience too severe turmoil. This is not that the British colonists still had a trace of conscience, but that the central government's eyes were always staring at the British's small movements.
The British were neither willing to hand over Hong Kong nor dared to challenge China's determination to safeguard sovereignty in Hong Kong. The only thing they could do was to be disgusting means. But on the one hand, the British rule became a lame governor of Hong Kong, and on the other hand, the central government did not begin to exercise its own power. Hong Kong is naturally full of chaos, and it is normal to be manipulated by capital that can afford money.
As a native force in Hong Kong, the Kang family's influence in the economic field is extraordinary, and of course the impact on the Hong Kong police force during this period cannot be ignored. The annual sponsorship fee of millions of dollars is just a small part of the improvement of "police-civilian relations". For example, the transfer of interests in land, police equipment and import and export have long bound them into a community of interests.
At the same time, like most ancient families, the Kang family not only bet on both sides. Some of the family invested in the mainland, some stayed in Hong Kong, and some chose to immigrate. Fortunately, the Kang family had already grown up in countries around the world in decades after the war. The political and economic relations between the United States and Britain were also very deeply rooted.
As an outstanding figure in the third generation of the Kang family, Kafur was able to rely on the power of some family with the acquiesce of his elders. When Zhou Shuo asked him if he was ready to investigate the consequences of the zlink Hong Kong branch, he made a decisive counterattack without thinking.
I saw him take out his phone and dial a number. This number is much longer than the mainland phone number, and it is obviously an international long-distance phone number. In 1995, the digital mobile phone network was still a rare thing in China, and only in the Emperor had some experimental network coverage. However, the great development of mobile communications brought about by this can already be seen.
While pressing the button, he looked at Zhou Shuo's eyes tightly. Kafur believed that as long as he showed enough threat, Zhou Shuo would eventually surrender.
The phone beeped twice, and a voice came from the opposite side. Kafur greeted the other side in Cantonese twice, and then pondered: "Chen Lir, I have a piece of information about smuggling here. Are you interested?"
Zhou Shuo raised his eyebrows and watched Cafur's performance silently. These operations of Fanhan Group can only be considered commercial activities at most and are absolutely clean in law. As long as he does not make any mistakes, he believes that the Hong Kong police will not be able to frame him. In addition to cutting off Zhou Shuo's shipping channels, it is no threat to him. At most, he does not leave Hong Kong, Malaysia, Japan or South Korea.
Even if part of the profit may be consumed on tariffs, with the advantages of domestic production costs, there is still a lot of profit margin.
Seeing that Zhou Shuo's face was still indifferent, Kafur couldn't help but sniff in his heart.
"Pretending. You pretend again. I don't believe it. When Hong Kong starts, you can still sit still!" Kafur thought viciously, but his mouth kept on his face.
"Yes, Chen Lir. I also heard some news by chance on the mainland. If it is convenient, I will fax the information to you later?"
"Okay, wait until I return to Hong Kong. Let's have afternoon tea together!"
Kafur hung up the phone, clicked his bag, and smiled proudly, "Mr. Zhou, it's still time to surrender now. You may have an advantage in the north. How about our well water not breaking into the river? As long as you give me the 908 project to me, I will pretend that I never knew about your smuggling."
Zhou Shuo shook his head and said, "Mr. Kafur feels that he is sure to win, but I still feel that the play has not been finished."
"So Mr. Zhou doesn't plan to compromise?" Kafur acted and wanted to leave.
Zhou Shuo nodded and looked at Dongfang Ke with a brow raised. Dongfang Ke then opened the office door and made a call.
Kafur never expected that Zhou Shuo was really uncompromising. He stared at him for a long time, and finally had to turn around and leave with helpless lips.
After coming out of Menghai Microelectronics' office building, Kafur took out his cell phone in a furious manner, raised his hand and started dialing the number.
"Hey, Chen Li, the other side is toasting and not eating the wine. It depends on you next..."
Kwai Chung Container Terminal, Hong Kong. This is Hong Kong's shipping center. Since its official opening in 1972, it has now rapidly expanded into a world-famous container terminal.
Around Kwai Chung Container Terminal, an industrial zone gradually emerged around it. This industrial zone not only concentrates Hong Kong's limited industrial capacity, but also is an important hub for the re-export of the mainland.
The Lion Mountain freighter is a container ship. It slowly sounded its whistle and drove into the berth of the dock port under the instructions of the water diversion ship.
As soon as the Lion Mountain was stopped, a Hong Kong Royal Police car stopped on the shore. When the people on the boat lowered the gangway, they rushed to catch up with the boat.
Almost at the same time, the Hong Kong branch of zlink Company, which is only three kilometers away from Kwai Chung Container Terminal, was surrounded by people. In the industrial area, three kilometers away from the port is not far away, and the area of ten acres is a factory that can be used in the New Territories.
"Cia, cid!" The old man who was looking at the door of the factory shouted, and hurriedly hugged his head and squatted down.
"Don't move!" The patrolman in military uniform was transferred to help pressed the old guard to the ground, and a team of fully armed Flying Tigers kept breaking into it.
Chen Gangsheng is the assistant police chief of the Criminal Department of the Royal Hong Kong Police. He has been a policeman for more than 20 years and dare not ignore the combat effectiveness of the "big circle boy". After hearing Kafur's words, he learned that he might be facing a smuggling group from the mainland, and he even specially applied for the Flying Tigers to fight the battle. Otherwise, if the other party suddenly took out 5,6, and a half, or May 4, the break-even point in his hand would be a joke.
When the old man shouted "cid", Chen Gangsheng's throat was raised. If this was not a bandit nest, why was the guardian so alert? Was he reminding the people inside to destroy the evidence or reminding them to resist? No matter what, I must not have the chance to fire my kind gun!
"Safety!"
"Safety!"
With the reports from the Flying Tigers ahead, Chen Gangsheng slowly put his heart back in his stomach.
"I found that it was possible!"
The front-line Flying Tigers suddenly rang out on the radio, followed by a chaotic noise. It seemed that the Flying Tigers were trying to control the situation, but the communication with the people on the other side was not very smooth.
"Don't move, lie down and hold your head with both hands!"
"Who do you know who my uncle is? Yes, hey-"
"Hey, man, be gentle, be gentle!"
"Damn it, it's such a bad move! Sun Thief, wait, don't kill grandpa, grandpa and you will never end up!"
At this time, the door opened suddenly in the radio, followed by a dense sound of footsteps. After a silence, a sound of slaughtering a pig was heard.
"Brothers, why are you so amazing? You're scouting guys!"
"Go ahead, teach them how to be a human being!"
With this shout, two gunshots suddenly rang out from the radio, followed by the shouts of the Flying Tigers.
"The Royal Hong Kong Police are not allowed to move! Put down your weapons, otherwise you will be arrested for assaulting the police."
...
After a farce arrest, under Chen Gangsheng's anxious expectation, the Flying Tigers finally searched the entire office location of the zlink Hong Kong branch. All the company, from the manager to the old man in the door, squatted in the yard without falling.
"Who are the leaders?" Chen Gangsheng walked over with his belt.
A middle-aged man handcuffed in the crowd stood up. He looked completely different from the group of young people next to him. He was full of elegant temperament. He wore a pair of wide-brimmed glasses on his face, and the suit he was meticulous.
"I am Hoover, the manager here. Why did you enter our factory for no reason and arrest our employees?"
"Ahem——" Chen Gangsheng pretended to cough and said in a slight tone: "Well, we have received a tip. Zlink is suspected of smuggling trade. Now please go back and assist in the investigation."
Hoover then asked back: "Mr. Police officer, do you have any evidence? What about the court's search and arrest warrant? Who gave you the power to use force?"
Chen Gangsheng looked at him contemptuously and sneered: "Evidence? Don't worry, there will be something soon."
As he was talking, a military uniform came over from behind, handed a cell phone into his hands, and then said a few words in his ear.
Chen Gangsheng shook his phone proudly and said with a smile: "See you, don't think you're doing so concealedly. The evidence you want will be ready immediately."
After saying that, he put his phone in front of Hoover and smiled proudly, "Hey, is it Group B? How is the evidence collected on the dock?"
After listening to a few words on the phone, Chen Gangsheng's face turned dark at a speed visible to the naked eye. (To be continued...)
