Chapter 794: Lin Yu's suggestion (4)

The Basic Law of Hong Kong Island clearly stipulates that garrison personnel must abide by national laws and Hong Kong Island laws. This is the first time in the history of the People's Liberation Army. On Hong Kong Island, many things are completely different from the way they handle them in the mainland. Words familiar to mainlanders such as "hard work", "helping others" are often a different meaning in Hong Kong Island. If the garrison officers and soldiers cannot establish a new ideology, they may cause jokes or even cause trouble.

Therefore, during this period, Song Jinping also strengthened the education and training of officers and soldiers in this area. In order to adapt to the needs of Hong Kong Island's defense, the troops stationed in Hong Kong Island allowed cadres and soldiers to learn legal knowledge through various channels. They specially issued books such as "One Hundred Questions of the Basic Law", "Hong Kong Island Law Reader", and "Compilation of Current Laws in Hong Kong Island" to enhance the awareness of officers and soldiers to abide by special laws in special environments.

Although the point Lin Yu proposed at this time seemed a bit redundant and lagging, with his age and experience, Song Jinping couldn't help but be surprised.

Lin Yu did not care too much about Song Jinping's reaction, but continued: "Secondly, we must strengthen the establishment of a management system for Hong Kong officers and soldiers that can adapt to new environments and forms, and avoid 'disturbing the people'. Whether it is the troops' rest, training and duty, we must not disturb the people. Hong Kong people have different living habits. It is possible that when the garrison gets up, they are still sleeping, and when the garrison gets up, they may still be working and entertainment when the garrison rests. In addition, Hong Kong Island is small, and most of the military camps are very close to the living areas of residents. If we still maintain the domestic tweeter, blowing trumpets, and even the sound of planes taking off and landing, it is very likely that "disturbing the people" and arouse dissatisfaction among Hong Kong Island citizens. Instead, Hong Kong Island citizens should feel that after the garrison is stationed in Hong Kong Island, it will have no impact on their lives."

This time, Song Jinping changed a little bit of a hint when he heard this. The place he had not considered for the moment was actually revealed by Lin Yu. How could he not be surprised?

In fact, Song Jinping visited Hong Kong Island as early as July last year at the invitation of General Deng Shouren, the commander of the British Army stationed in Hong Kong. This is the first time that a soldier of the Chinese People's Liberation Army has come to the sacred territory of the motherland in public. At the same time, since he served as the first commander of the Hong Kong troops stationed in Hong Kong, he has gained an in-depth understanding of various situations in Hong Kong Island. But if it weren't for Lin Yu's reminder today, he would have completely ignored this point.

Although these are just small things, and as usual, how can there be no sound of military horns or even training in the military camp? But in this critical and sensitive place in Hong Kong Island, these insignificant little things may have extremely bad social impacts, deepening the exclusion and dissatisfaction of Hong Kong Island citizens with the garrison.

"Xiao Yu is right." Mr. Lin also nodded and said with appreciation: "Details determine success or failure. Don't underestimate the value and power of these details. We want to make Hong Kong citizens truly understand them from these details. Our army is the army of the people, and the army that starts from the country and the people."

"We must pay attention to this point and take other measures to overcome this problem!" Song Jinping said loudly, and at the same time he could not help but look at Lin Yu very gratefully, and decided to hold a meeting to discuss and analyze these issues after he went back. He must come up with a proper solution. It cannot affect the normal operation of the army, and also try not to disturb the people.

In order to fully pay attention to this issue, Song Jinping even took out a small notebook from his pocket and wrote the words "not disturbing the people", but it seemed that it was not enough to make a decision. He drew several circles on the three words.

"Also, we must pay attention to military appearance and discipline." Lin Yu glanced at Song Jinping and said cautiously: "The current Hong Kong citizens do not know or cannot correctly understand the PLA. This reason is more complicated, because Hong Kong Island has been under pressure from British rule for a long time, and the ** forces have been carrying out anti-continental propaganda in media and ideology for a long time. They will not let go of distorting the image of the PLA. Even in many film and television works of this period, the PLA appears as a negative image. Hong Kong people have received colonial education on Hong Kong since childhood, do not understand the history of China, do not understand the growth process of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, and do not go to the mainland to see the achievements of the motherland in recent years' reform and opening up. They only see some blurry shots of the PLA that have been distorted from Hong Kong Island TV. In addition, some people have ulterior motives, so they have developed a sense of strangeness to the PLA and even look at us with suspicion."

"Because of this, our Hong Kong troops represent the image of our People's Liberation Army. It is a window for them to know our People's Liberation Army and the mainland. Military conditions and disciplines must not be missed. They even pay more attention and strict requirements than domestic troops."

Before the Hong Kong troops entered Hong Kong, Hong Kong Island Media conducted a survey, asking citizens to tell where the headquarters of the People's Liberation Army stationed in Hong Kong should be located. As a result, more than 80% of people believed that it should be in the "New Territories". Please note the subtext of this survey: the headquarters of the British army stationed in Hong Kong was in the heart of Hong Kong Island, Central. The citizens "selected" the headquarters locations of the People's Liberation Army stationed in Hong Kong contained a considerable sense of distrust and even fear. Many citizens were worried that the military discipline of the garrison would be poor, and they would become the emperor after coming to Hong Kong Island, including prostitution and gambling. They were even worried that the People's Liberation Army would cause many scandals such as rape, alcoholism and trouble.

It can be said that when I heard the chief say he wanted to garrison troops, the sky above Victoria Harbour was filled with fear, confusion, and kind-hearted doubts.

"Who dares to smear the face of our People's Liberation Army? Don't think that I've retired, I will still shoot him!" Old Master Lin stared at the big eyes and slapped the table angrily. When he opened his voice, he had a great momentum of not being angry but powerful.

At this moment, he was like a statue that has existed since ancient times, staring at Song Jinping in front of him without moving, with his fierce eyes almost ferocious, as if Song Jinping was this unforgivable person.

Song Jinping was so scared by the old man's actions that the corners of his mouth trembled slightly.

The old man's power had long left a very deep impression in his heart. Thinking back to the old man's anger, who was not trembling, silent, and pale in his face, as if the doomsday was coming?

Song Jinping quickly stood up and said, "Old Chief, please rest assured. I, Song Jinping, have a statement here. If the troops stationed in Hong Kong make a ugliness and slander on Hong Kong Island, you don't need to criticize me. I, Song Jinping, will be the first to resign!" His tone was very firm and firm. It can be seen that he really took this matter to heart.

Mr. Lin nodded with emotion, then slowed down and said, "Jinping, you can't be careless about this matter. You must know that we insist on garrisoning the troops, with such a firm attitude. I still don't know how many people are waiting to use magnifying glasses or even microscopes to find fault! Therefore, the Hong Kong troops stationed in Hong Kong cannot relax their vigilance at all times."

"Jinping must remember the teachings of the old leader!" Song Jinping replied loudly.

Seeing that Song Jinping had indeed attracted great attention in this matter, Mr. Lin smiled and scolded Lin Yu again: "You Xiaoyu, you have any other good ideas, please tell me, don't hide it, it's like squeezing toothpaste, it's not at all."

"Actually, it's nothing. If you want to have it, you must try to pay attention to maintaining good relationships with the Hong Kong media, appropriately increase some positive exposure, and engage in more interactions with citizens so that Hong Kong citizens can get to know and understand our Hong Kong troops more." Lin Yu scratched his head and smiled when he heard this.

In fact, he did not have many more unique insights. He just said that while recalling the problems that the Hong Kong troops had encountered in his previous life, he then summarized and sorted them out, which could be regarded as a wake-up call for Song Jinping in advance so as not to take another detour.

"News media?" Song Jinping also had a headache when he heard this.

Hong Kong Island is originally a place of freedom of speech. Unlike in China, the news media accepts guidance and supervision from the government. In their opinion, as long as it is newsworthy and can attract readers' attention, whether it is true or false, whether it is exaggerated or not, everything will be made public. In order to explore news topics, they even dig three feet away. The paparazzi in Hong Kong Island is also famous all over the world. With their extremely keen sense of smell and vision, as well as perseverance and persistence that ordinary people can imagine, they can always get a variety of news topics and then make a big fuss, which often makes the Hong Kong Island government suffer from headaches.

There is no doubt that the Hong Kong Island garrison will definitely attract great attention from Hong Kong Island media, and a little bit of insignificant little things can also become a big news that will sensation the whole city.

"Then what should we do?" Song Jinping rubbed his forehead and couldn't help asking Lin Yu for advice.

"It is better to invite them to visit and interview with them because they secretly write some out of context, not very objective reports." Lin Yu said with a smile: "Since they need a news point, let's give them a news point."

Speaking of this, Lin Yu felt that his mouth was a bit dry, after all, he had said so much. But since he had already started, he might as well explain it a little more thoroughly.

He took a sip of water and continued, "Uncle Song, I think that since Hong Kong citizens do not understand our troops, and are even worried and afraid, they should create more contact with the citizens. For example, they can hold regular military camp open days and invite Hong Kong citizens to visit the military camp, so that they can see the life and training of our Hong Kong troops with their own eyes, relieve their vigilance and misunderstandings about the troops, understand the superb military qualities of our people's army, and gain the confidence of Hong Kong Island.
