Chapter 236 236 Victory Parade
Luo Chao yawned with his mouth open, opened the window to see that the weather was good outside, and wondered if he would go out and find some odd jobs to do today. He didn't come from a good background, he grew up in a place like Temple Street since he was a child, and he was mixed with social habits, but he had a bright brain and was very good at reading. A few years ago, the City Polytechnic of Hong Kong was established, and he was admitted to the recruitment examination, but the scholarship he got was not enough, and his family had no money, so he could only work on weekdays to earn living expenses.
Luo Chao's father is still a person in the film and television industry, and in the sixties and seventies, he was a dragon and tiger martial artist under the Shaw Brothers, in addition to playing minions, robbers, etc., and occasionally as a stuntman. Luo's father was not good for eternity, and he didn't keep up with his nutrition when he was young, so he didn't practice kung fu, and his boxing was all fancy. Luo Chao is an exception, he has been a little bully since he was a child, causing trouble everywhere on the street, and ganging up, enjoying the "worship" of a bunch of hairy boys, plus his father's professional income is also okay, although he is not pampered, but he looks very sturdy. Coupled with being smart and clever, with good roots, and learning kung fu very quickly, Luo's father saw that his son had potential, so he asked for a friend to worship under the famous teacher, and now Luo Chao is twenty-one years old, and ordinary martial arts practitioners will be beaten if they can't go through four or five moves in the hands of this bastard.
Because there are too many younger brothers and sisters in the family, Luo Chao's economy is tight after he goes to college, although Luo Chao is more mixed, he is quite sensible, does not get involved in the underworld, and follows his father's old path, and goes to the set to run tricks as a sandbag in his spare time to earn living expenses.
Just as he was about to go out to a familiar tea restaurant to rub some of the guests' leftovers for morning tea, a classmate from a middle-class family in his dormitory, Huang Hezhong, ran in and shouted at him: "Super boy, let's see if there is a big parade in Central!" ”
Hong Kong is known as the "protest capital" in the international community, because it is a mixed immigrant society with a high level of development, and citizens like to pay attention to all kinds of things, from politics to social issues, environmental protection or sports, anyway, as long as there is a big thing, they are willing to get involved. Moreover, many of the people who participated in these activities could not even say the gist of the event, but they were willing to walk for a day in the sun and wind with signs. Demonstrations in Hong Kong are often more like extraordinarily grand celebrations.
The reason for this is probably because after the British seized the place, the colonial government was unwilling to give the locals the right to speak out, and liked to exploit and oppress Hong Kong residents, so Hong Kong people have a special sense of cherishing their own right to speak out. Coupled with the influence of Western culture and the distortion of traditional Chinese official fan culture, Hong Kong people have gradually developed the habit of expressing their opinions on everything.
In fact, this characteristic is found in many places in the world, and without exception it is a relatively small area. The reason is nothing more than a relatively small horizon and greater limitations.
Of course, not all Hong Kong people like to march on the streets without incident, Luo Chao has a strong style of low-level Hong Kong people taking care of their own family affairs, pouting and saying: "It's boring, don't stop me from making money." ”
Huang Hezhong was not angry, and Ha Luha smiled: "Make money? It is said that many industries have closed down to participate in parades and rallies, and if you want to go to the set, you will probably only see locks. ”
Luo Chao scolded: "your lungs, isn't it good to live a good life?" ”
Then he was curious and asked, "What is the march for, is there any big deal?" ”
Huang Hezhong took out a newspaper from the dormitory table and said, "Don't you even read the newspaper?" The Nanyang Chinese Liberation Organization completely annihilated the large fleet of ghosts, and the establishment of the Malayan Chinese state is a foregone conclusion, which can be regarded as the first victory of our Chinese over the ghosts. Today's parade is a victory parade, and it's celebrated. ”
Luo Chao shook his head repeatedly, stretched out two fingers and dangled: "First, Hong Kong people are not Chinese in less than 97 years, strictly speaking, we are the defeated side; Second, the victory of the Chinese over the ghosts began in the 19th century, during the Sino-French War, the Qing government defeated the French and brought down the French government. And most importantly, is it Maitreya Buddha for all of you people to be the governor of the government? If you take the scars like this, you won't be able to make a mess. ”
Huang Zhonghe's family has a leftist background, and naturally identifies himself as Chinese, but Luo Chao is the type who doesn't care if he is a Chinese or a British. Huang Zhonghe said without scruples: "The ghosts have lost, what else can they do, there are at least 100,000 people on the streets today, and they dare to risk the world's condemnation?" Let's go, let's go, let's go, I'll have a drink after the parade! ”
As soon as Luo Chao heard this, the wine worm in his stomach immediately came out, this guy started tasting wine at the age of three, he was a purebred drunkard, and when he heard that there was wine, he could do anything. In fact, there are many Hong Kong people in later generations who are like him, and they can go to the streets for a morning with a little favor, but it is not necessary to really support the theme of the rally.
Huang Zhonghe dragged Luo Chao to gather with a group of students from the school outside the school gate, Luo Chao roughly counted the number, and found that there were hundreds of people, men and women dressed everything. Some students prepared banners with slogans such as "Celebrate the Great Victory of the Southern Liberation Army" and "Long Live the Chinese Liberation Movement". Many people are holding three small flags, Luo Chao only knows the five-star red flag in the north, and the other two do not.
"The red and white star flame flag is the gas flag of the Southern Liberation Army, and it is said that it will become the national flag after the founding of the People's Republic of China in the future, and the Bauhinia flag is the regional flag of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region in the future." Huang Zhonghe explained to Luo Chao.
Luo Chao laughed and said, "The flag of Hong Kong? It's much better than the Hong Kong British flag, it's a piece of red, and there is a five-pointed star, for fear that others won't know that Hong Kong is the same as China. ”
Huang Zhonghe didn't compete with him, he knew that Luo Chao was such a broken-mouthed guy, but he didn't have any malice.
Luo Chao pulled Huang Zhonghe's sleeve, pointed at the group of students in this school, and said, "When will our school become a leftist position?" ”
Hong Kong has a very traditional leftist soil, and famous leftist schools such as Heung Tao Middle School and Pui Kiu Middle School are even known as local pro-communist forces with strong roots. At that time, these leftist schools almost followed the mainland in launching the great "revolution" of culture, and also engaged in the controversial June Seventh riots in later generations.
Huang Zhonghe replied to him with a smile: "It's not a leftist, many people are just like you, and they think it's cool to watch the British ghosts." In addition, in the past two years, the mainland has been determined to carry out reforms, and it has made a lot of progress in many aspects, especially in the international community, and it has become more respected. The mainland is also quite concerned about promoting itself on Hong Kong Island, and news media such as Shaw Brothers also sing praises of virtue, so some students feel that the image of the mainland is much more positive. ”
Huang Zhonghe is a very intelligent young man, and he sees problems thoroughly, and what he says is basically the truth. For example, a large number of industrialists in Hong Kong have pro-mainland colors, such as Hong Kong's entertainment giant and later charity tycoon Shaw Brothers, who are also willing to open the door to the mainland. Traditional pro-mainland print media such as Ta Kung Pao and Wen Wei Po began to be invested by Qi Yiming, a mainland-funded giant, a year ago, and joined many later generations of newspaper running models, and also invited many powerful editors and writers, and gradually caught up with newspapers and periodicals such as Oriental Daily and Cheng Pao, and by the way, they continued to instill positive news from the mainland to the local area.
Before Qi Yiming gained mind control, he knew how to use other means to influence other people's thinking and ideology. In fact, as Yuri said, the change of people's hearts is actually quite easy. In addition, although Hong Kong at this time still had misgivings about the north, it was not generally repulsive, unlike the sudden turmoil that broke out later, so that almost all of Hong Kong began to have anti-China plots.
The student parade at the City Polytechnic was simply assembled, and some Chinese faculty members joined the procession. Luo Chao, Huang Zhonghe and others followed the procession and began to march towards Central, the main assembly place of the parade, and more and more small teams merged into their ranks along the way, and even some passers-by A and B also joined in the excitement. Some people have a simple nationalism or patriotic complex, while others are really just soy sauce. It's just that Hong Kong is a treasure land, and soy sauce making is also a very popular and popular sport.
Luo Chao was stuffed with a big flag by Huang Zhonghe, because he was tall and strong, and the four or five meter-high flagpole was estimated to be able to be carried by him, Luo Chao thought to himself, it is estimated that Huang Zhong and this shrewd ghost lacked such a coolie as him, so he was pulled over. But as long as there is wine to drink, Luo Chao doesn't care about these things with his roommates.
There are more and more people in the team, Luo Chao can naturally feel the strong team and crowd, constantly rendering and enhancing the atmosphere, even he can feel that the blood seems to be constantly tumbling and boiling, and subconsciously raised the five-star red flag in his hand higher. The waving temperament and the untidy slogans attracted more people to join, and the parade snowballed bigger and bigger.
The **** and the trade union federation that organized the parade did not seem to have expected this grand occasion, but the parade staff in charge of coordination still tried their best to sort out the procession, they originally estimated that there should be about 50,000 participants in the parade, but now 100,000 people have already exceeded it, and even approached the 200,000 mark.
It also put considerable pressure on the organisers because of the chaotic march participants, a mix of people and perhaps activists. The British government in Hong Kong sent a large number of police officers to maintain order, and it was difficult to ensure that any clashes broke out between the overly excited crowd and the police.
"Long live Nanjie!"
"Long live Hong Kong!"
"Long live the Chinese nation!"
The procession was like a long dragon with no tail in sight, and the excited shouts of the people shook this originally arrogant and indifferent city, as if it wanted to get to know the people who lived here again. In the eyes of enthusiastic people, the Southern Liberation Army is a just organization that fights for the freedom and liberation of the Chinese ethnic group and for racial equality and fair rights, and the righteous organization has won a just victory, and it is facing foreign rulers who are not very popular with many Hong Kong people.
For the people of Hong Kong, the British at this time, like the Malays in Malaysia, were greedy and shameless, unrighteous and doomed to fail. Britain has been laid down by the Southern Liberation Altar, Malaya has been recovered, and Hong Kong will also be recovered in the future.
