Hong Kong variety show: An undercover agent from Infernal Affairs? I'm not human anymore!

First, I introduced myself.

“My name is Robinson… I’m sure you’ve all heard of Mr. Robinson, the fifth Grand Marshal. He was my great-great-grandfather.”

"..."

Then he handed over the reins to Fei Peng and said some polite words.

Fat Peng chimed in, saying, "I believe that under Mr. Robinson's leadership, Hong Kong Island will surely become even more glorious."

Robinson smirked: "I think so too."

He gave the fat governor a mocking look: "Ha, a stray dog!"

The fat governor naturally saw through Robinson's sarcasm. If it were yesterday, he would have been furious, but today...

The fat governor sneered inwardly: "Ha...naive people! You'll soon experience what it means to have the simple and honest folks of Hong Kong!"

Then came the inaugural address of the new Grand Marshal Robinson.

Standing on the stage, his resolute face and upright posture displayed his courage and decisiveness, and every gesture was full of confidence and determination.

"I will focus on building a more efficient administrative team (making it more bloated and leaving a mess)..."

“I have higher expectations for the judiciary (to strengthen its influence on future judicial independence)…”

"I will make many changes to improve people's lives and make life better for the citizens of Hong Kong Island (let's stir things up)..."

"I can……"

He said several things in a row.

"Finally, the security situation on Hong Kong Island has reached a very serious level. I will strengthen security management and rectify the conduct of the police force (I will strictly manage officers like Ma Zhichao)..."

Let's go through them one by one.

All the reporters present could sense that the newly appointed Grand Commander was an extremely capable and decisive leader.

His style may be completely different from that of Fat Peng.

Fei Peng is a cunning and insidious man who subtly infiltrates others' lives; he appears kind and approachable, making it impossible for people to sense his danger.

The new Grand Commander Robinson was the kind of person who was ruthless, decisive, and direct.

The reason Victoria appointed him as the new Grand Marshal is probably because she felt that his personality would make him better able to stir up trouble in Hong Kong.

……

At noon that day,

ATV News and TVB both reported on the handover and inaugural speech of Grand Marshal Robinson.

Finally, a review is given:

"This is a new Grand Commander brimming with confidence and charisma..."

"From the moment he takes office, Hong Kong Island will enter the Robinson era!"

"What will happen to Hong Kong Island in the future? Let's wait and see!"

After seeing the news, some Hong Kong citizens were hopeful, some were pessimistic, and some felt indifferent.

……

Department of Police, Office of the Deputy Commissioner.

Zeng Xiangrong was sitting on the sofa, looking at this news.

When he heard the Grand Commander's last point, he realized that the Grand Commander might take action against Ma Zhichao.

This gave him an idea.

Should I align myself with the new Grand Commander?

He hesitated.

After thinking for a few minutes, he decided to hold out for the time being.

First, the Grand Commander has just arrived and hasn't yet demonstrated his political skills and strength. What if he turns out to be just a figurehead? If we rush into investing, wouldn't we suffer a huge loss?

Secondly, the commissioner will return in three years, at which point the top police commissioner will definitely be replaced. Unless Ma Zhichao makes a major mistake, he's a shoo-in for the top spot. His current attempts to curry favor with the Grand Commandant seem pointless; in fact, they'll be a disadvantage after 1999.

Let's leave it alone for now!

……

……

At the Grand General's residence,

After the press conference, all the reporters left, but the place didn't become deserted; instead, it became even more lively.

Because many high-ranking government officials came to report on their work.

Everyone is so eager to improve!

When Ma Zhichao became the number two person in the police force, various departments rushed to report to him, hoping to get promoted.

but,

The first person Grand Marshal Robinson heard a report from was none other than the current 'Prime Minister' and Chief Secretary for Administration, Chen Anxin!

(ps: The prototype for someone is Chen)

Inside the Grand Commander's office,

Robinson sat in the boss's chair, while Chen Anxin stood respectfully.

"Director Chen, I heard that you were the one who reported to the higher-ups that Commander Peng has problems!"

"Yes, Grand Commander!"

“I’ve looked at your resume and found that your position as Chief Secretary for Administration was promoted by Governor Peng, who can be considered your benefactor in the workplace. Your actions can be seen as a betrayal of him. I would like to hear your explanation for this!” Robinson asked coldly.

However, Chen Anxin was not flustered at all.

The fact that the Grand Commander chose to report himself first already demonstrates his attitude.

Chen Anxin said solemnly, "I believe that as citizens and government officials of the great Victorian Empire, we should naturally prioritize the interests of the Empire. I have always been proud to be a citizen of the Empire, and naturally I will not allow anyone to hinder the Empire's great plans in Hong Kong."

"And given that Grand Commander Peng has promoted Ma Zhichao multiple times without the interests of the empire, I believe that Grand Commander Peng may have developed ulterior motives and betrayed the interests of the empire."

Robinson glanced at Chen Anxin.

It is clear that Chen Anxin truly regards the empire as his own country and is proud of it, while showing contempt for his original bloodline. This demonstrates that the empire has been very effective in cultural domestication.

Robinson: "Can I trust you?"

Chen Anxin stood at attention: "Please rest assured, Grand Commander, my loyalty to the Empire is as clear as day."

Robinson nodded: "Who do you think is the biggest troublesome figure for the Empire right now?"

Chen Anxin answered without hesitation: "Ma Zhichao!"

Robinson: "Explain in detail."

Chen Anxin: "Ma Zhichao's power has expanded too quickly. Ma Zhichao has three major forces under his command. The first is the police force, where his prestige is unmatched, even surpassing Cai Yuanqi, and he is the de facto second-in-command in terms of power. Even the Commissioner of Police, Cai Yuanqi, turns a blind eye to Ma Zhichao's behavior?"

Robinson nodded; he had already inquired about this by making an overseas phone call while he was in Victoria.

"The second largest force was the Umbrella Corporation, which at this time had contracted 90% of the property management in West Kowloon and Hong Kong Island, and 60% of the properties in the New Territories North and East Kowloon, with more than 25 employees. Moreover, it is worth noting that this company had absorbed most of the gangsters from various triads in Hong Kong, and its network of relationships was extremely vast. Therefore, its tentacles reached almost both the underworld and legitimate society on Hong Kong Island, and all sorts of people. Its intelligence capabilities were very strong, and as long as it was willing to investigate, many things could not escape its notice."

Upon hearing this, Robinson immediately became serious.

This company is a bit outrageous!

It feels like it's completely out of control!

This is very serious!

Chen Anxin said with a serious expression, "What's even more troublesome is that this company is completely legal! Before you came, I had the National Audit Office audit the company's accounts. The monthly turnover exceeds 200 billion yuan, and the assets are expanding extremely rapidly. If it were listed, its market value would easily exceed 20 billion yuan. Moreover, there is another problem: such a huge and complex turnover is definitely an excellent place for money laundering, and it will be very difficult for us to investigate!"

Robinson: "…………"

He once again placed even greater emphasis on Ma Zhichao!

Money laundering is a complex and extensive business.

This company is a bit tricky for him!

Robinson: "Also, what is the third force under Ma Zhichao that you mentioned?"

Chen Anxin: "The third one is Ma Zhichao's legitimate manufacturing company, which produces soft drinks, suits, a film company, instant noodles, milk... The movies are a hit, and then his company's products are advertised all over Asia. And now he has an electronics factory, making color TVs, washing machines, and refrigerators, which sell well all over Asia and even in northern China. I heard he earns 1000 million a day..."

Robinson: "…………"

Why does this Ma Zhichao seem like a super rich man?

He couldn't resist his curiosity.

"How much is Ma Zhichao worth now?"

Chen Anxin: "It has 200 billion, and if it goes public, based on its excellent performance, it will be at least 600 billion..."

Robinson: "…………"

The more I learn, the more shocked I become!

Robinson: "He's only been back in the police force for a little over a year?"

Chen Anxin nodded: "That's right, one year and one month! A little over a year ago, he was just a poor undercover agent! That's why I felt there was something wrong with this person, a very big problem!"

Robinson nodded.

In just one year, he went from having nothing to becoming a powerful and wealthy figure.

This Ma Zhichao is really outrageous!

This person must be eliminated!

After a long time,

Robinson asked, "You just said that Commissioner of Police Choi Yuen-kei also turned a blind eye to Ma Chi-chiu. What's going on?"
