Hong Kong News: Police Talker

Chapter 610: Things escalate, media enters the picture

The next day, the news that the gangsters besieged the Central Police Station and were suppressed by force spread throughout Hong Kong Island in an instant.

《Shocking! Hong Kong Island gangsters besieged the police station! 》

"Did the police officer's mistake lead to the siege of the police station?"

"What on earth happened that led to the police station being surrounded!"

All major media and newspapers in Hong Kong began reporting on this incident, and even television stations began reporting on it.

After going through numerous baptisms, the entire residents of Hong Kong Island instantly knew that the Central Police Station was besieged by gangsters.

Watson had just arrived at the office when Chen Yongren followed him in. After closing the door, he said in a deep voice, "Something is wrong. Take a look at these."

As he spoke, Chen Yongren placed several newspapers on Watson's desk.

"Besides all this, I went to other people and even the TV stations started reporting on this. This is not normal in any way."

Watson picked up the newspapers and looked at them. Then his eyes narrowed slightly. “Are you saying that someone is behind this?”

Chen Yongren nodded solemnly and said, "Well, otherwise the news wouldn't spread so quickly. This is too abnormal. Moreover, this involves the police station, but these media outlets are not afraid at all. Logically speaking, this is abnormal."

As a person who traveled from the future, Watson certainly knew how great the pressure of public opinion was, and how many people had fallen into hell because of public opinion.

Especially in this day and age, there are no restrictions on what these media can say, they can say whatever they want.

Public opinion can drive people crazy. Only those who have experienced it know how vicious it is.

So who could have done this, Kwong Chi-lapin and Li Wenbin?

That’s not quite right. I am not the only one mentioned in these articles. Kwong Chi-lap is mentioned quite a few times as well.

Watson was thinking frantically in his mind. There were only two possibilities now. The first was that no one was behind this matter, and it was the media reporters who discovered it yesterday and went back to report it.

The second thing is that there is a third party involved in this matter!

Thinking of this, a fierce look flashed in Watson's eyes.

"Ah Ren, take your people to these media outlets and find out who is behind this. No, you don't have to go. I'll let Ji Shaoqun go. He's good at dealing with these people."

"Follow me to the Public Relations Department and look for Liang Ziwei. The police station must intervene in this matter."

After he finished speaking, Watson immediately opened the door and shouted loudly: "Shao Qun!"

After hearing the shout, Ji Shaoqun immediately stood up and came to Watson's office. He was about to speak when Watson said directly, "Shaoqun, there is no time. Now all the media in Hong Kong Island are reporting that our Central Police Station is under siege."

"Take your people to investigate, find these media outlets and see who is behind this. Whoever it is, they will have to pay the price!"

Ji Shaoqun looked at Hua Sheng's face and immediately understood. He said in a deep voice: "I know, Hua Sir!"

After saying this, Ji Shaoqun immediately left the police station with the members of the anti-drug team.

Watson quickly took Chen Yongren to the Public Relations Department.

When I arrived, I found that Kuang Zhili and Zhao Xingjiu were also there.

"Sir Kuang, what a coincidence, you are here too!"

Kuang Zhili looked at Huasheng deeply, smiled and said, "I have no choice but to ask Liang Sir for help. I guess Hua Sir has the same purpose."

He is not sure whether Watson's people are behind this. After Li Wenbin got the news, he also started to send people to investigate, wanting to see who is behind it.

Watson smiled faintly: "Sir Kuang, let's not play these empty games between us. I'm sure you've seen the news in the newspaper, and as far as I know, not only the newspapers, but even the TV stations have begun to report this matter."

"It can be said that now everyone in Hong Kong Island knows that the Central Police Station was besieged because of the two of us."

"This kind of strategy that results in both sides suffering losses is not the method used by Kuang Sir and the person behind you. You like to use your power to overwhelm others. This kind of conspiracy and trickery is not like your way of doing things."

"I can also tell you clearly that this matter has nothing to do with me, Watson."

Liang Ziwei on the side did not say anything, but just watched the two of them quietly. She certainly knew why these two top police officers were fighting.

However, her route is different from Watson and others. She is taking the civilian route and does not need to compete with Watson and others.

After listening to this, Kuang Zhili did not say anything, but just stared at Watson. Watson did not avoid his gaze, and the two of them just looked at each other.

Looking at Watson's appearance, Kwong Chi-lai frowned slightly and said, "Although what happened at the Central Police Station yesterday was a big deal, it shouldn't spread all over Hong Kong Island in an instant, and those media will also have concerns because it involves the police station."

"But judging from the current situation, none of these are the case, so it is obvious that someone is behind this."

After that, Kuang Zhili looked at Liang Ziwei and said, "Sir Liang, this incident has become a big deal now. It is a major blow to the reputation of us and the Central Police Station. I think Sir Liang should hold a press conference in the name of the police station."

"Then Hua Sir and I can participate to reduce the impact of this incident."

Liang Ziwei did not agree immediately, but said in a cold voice: "Have you thought about what to say at the press conference? Are you going to say that you have nothing to do with the siege of the Central District Police Station? If you say that, then the reputation of our entire police force will be ruined."

"Now people outside are arguing that you and Hua Sir are related to this matter, so they dare to report it like this."

"It is impossible to lie in that situation. Once discovered, it will seriously undermine the credibility of our police force."

Kuang Zhili fell silent after being confronted. Watson smiled faintly: "Sir Liang, don't be angry. I'm not here to ask you to hold a press conference."

"I want Mr. Liang's public relations department to issue a notice in the name of the police station, directly stating the cause and effect of the whole incident."

"Why was the Central Police Station besieged by gangsters? It was because they arrested the leader of the Hongxing gang, Jiang Tiansheng, which led to the siege."

"The media simply skipped over this incident and just said that it was because of me and Sir Kuang that the police station was besieged. This is not reasonable."

"There is no need for us to hide anything. We should just write down the reasons why Jiang Tiansheng was killed. We should also write that our police force will never compromise with criminals and talk about the purpose of our Hong Kong Island police force, etc."
