Allan Zeman (Allan Zeman) has been in political and business circles for many years, and he has "have a history" with different camps. On the day he signed up to run for the Legislative Council, he publicly encouraged the pan-popular to stand for elections, indicating that he was willing to help if there were difficulties in obtaining nomination.
In an exclusive interview with "Hong Kong 01", he revealed that in the past period of time, 5 to 6 Panmin wanted him to be nominated, and they finally gave Di Zhiyuan, "I want to see Panmin enter the gate, so that I won't be criticized as "all the same." They are all pro-Beijing people."
Since the anti-revision incident, a large number of pan citizens have been arrested and even imprisoned. Sheng Zhiwen, who is friendly with many pan citizens, said that he regrets that he should not be afraid of the Communist Party. "The Mainland is even more capitalist than Europe and the United States. "The Communist Party "It just didn't change the name."
In this Legislative Council election, many people with Chinese-funded and Mainland backgrounds are running for the election, and they have become a new "red chip" force in the establishment. Sheng Zhiwen believes that there is nothing wrong with them. "They are all Hong Kong people. It will come after the reunification. Everyone will scare the stock market today. Chinese capital will account for 75%.” He said that Chinese capital will only increase. Since these people hold representative positions, they believe that Hong Kong people can only move forward. see.

Forget the old days, forget the days the British were living by, they have already left, it's a new page!

Qu (Di Zhiyuan) knocked me off and said that he was having trouble fighting for the nomination, could you help him?
I said, "Yes, but I have received a lot of calls, please take time to think about it."
Sheng Zhiwen
Under the new electoral system, all legislative candidates have to "wow votes" to the electoral committee and obtain at least two votes from each of the five major sectors. Democrats who refuse to stand for election describe it as "humiliating."
The barriers to entry for non-organizational factions are high. Sheng Zhiwen finally chose to help the new mindset Di Zhiyuan and was elected from the social welfare sector. "I know Qu, in fact, I donated money a long time ago. Back then (Qu) seemed to be a constituency. Councillor, one Saturday and next day, he wants me to help him stand on the platform, I will go all the way."
Sheng Zhiwen said that he had known Ho Chunren and Lai Zhiying for many years. "I don't agree with Qu's claims. They are very clear, but it doesn't matter, they are all friends." (Photo by Luo Junhao)
If the Panminists do not resist the National Security Act, they are willing to nominate boycotts, it is not the right choice
"I don't mind your political party, the opportunity is so important!" Sheng Zhiwen is well-rounded and has contacts all over the left, middle and right. In the past, whether the Democratic Party, the Liberal Party, or the Democratic Alliance for the Betterment of Hong Kong, he was seen in the party celebrations of all parties. "He is all friends. I have to raise donations and have trouble. I have extended a helping hand." He said that he lost his father at the age of 7 and experienced helplessness. "So I often think, if someone needs me, why not?"
Sheng Zhiwen said that it is their right to run for the new legislative council, but he believes that boycott is not the right choice. "I am a fighter, and I will try what I believe, and I don't want to hide or act." He said if The moderate pan-people "do not resist the National Security Law, why not vote? I am happy to nominate, I hope stability, for the sake of Hong Kong people, everyone can live a good life!" However, he said that many people unfortunately got into trouble, "because the year before last In the incident, objectively someone can no longer serve."
Remembrance and Li Zhiying were friends in the micro time
Sheng Zhiwen inadvertently mentioned He Junren, Li Zhiying, Martin Li, and Emily Liu, saying that everyone has known each other for many years. "I don't agree with Qu's proposition. He is very clear, but it doesn't matter, they are all friends." Sheng Zhiwen said that he was very sad when he was arrested, especially with Li Zhiying, "I have a good understanding and patience. I ran a cold sweater factory before I started the "Apple Daily". I started a trading company. Zhonghousheng, we are about the same age."
Sheng Zhiwen pointed out that society does not need a single mode of thinking. No matter what ideas or decisions there are, they should respect each other. "Everyone is a whole, and for a better life, it should be the same", and the premise is that there is no violence and no harm. people.
He pointed out that during the anti-amendment period the year before, "the so-called "democracy movement" became violent and destroyed subway shops. It was the most unpleasant. This is not Hong Kong, and it is not a place called housing enterprises."
After the implementation of the "Hong Kong National Security Law", the Hong Kong government has carried out "turning out chaos" in various fields, but there are also institutional voices who question whether the action is too large or "overcorrected."
Sheng Zhiwen responded that "nothing can lead to chaos." For example, at the beginning of the year, supporters of former US President Trump broke into Congress. Now many of them are facing interrogation and are in prison: "It's all the same. If you break the law, you must be interrogated. An independent judicial system, judges do not involve politics, and Beijing has no pressure to exonerate without sufficient evidence." He pointed out that an independent judicial system is also the reason why Hong Kong attracts investors. There will be a fair trial.”
Understand that Article 23 must be added to harm the business environment?
Sheng Yu trusts the government
With the implementation of the National Security Law of the Port Area, Article 23 of the Basic Law has also been put on the agenda, and many foreign investors are worried about the damage to the business environment.
Sheng Zhiwen from the business community believes that the law is to protect the people and continue to enjoy a normal life, expressing absolute understanding.
The government clearly stated that Article 23 of the legislation will be the spicy version of 2003. If Sheng Zhiwen succeeds in joining the bureau, he will hold a vote, "It has been 19 years (from now), and the world has changed drastically." Trust the government: "I know (Secretary of Justice) Zheng Ruohua, her mind is in Hong Kong and she wants to serve Hong Kong. I know these officials, they all care about Hong Kong and will not harm the people." He added, "Anti-Foreign The "Sanctions Law" will be implemented in Hong Kong sooner or later, which means that China is different from the past. "I am very confident that the law to protect myself is right with the country. Don't you want to be sanctioned by Europe and the United States?"
However, he believes that the government will make concessions. "(Ultimately) it is a plan acceptable to all parties. Neither the Hong Kong government nor Beijing will want to lose multinational corporations. They know well and have a sense of measure."
Sheng Zhiwen pointed out that the colonial era has passed, and public perceptions need to be changed. Since the proportion of Chinese capital is becoming more and more important, the rise of new political forces is not wrong.

There should be no fear that the Communist Party Hong Kong is fortunate to belong to China
Under the new electoral system, the "red chips" have risen. The nomination period was only two days during the visit. At least 5 Chinese or Mainland background persons have participated in the election. The most notable one is Tan Yueheng, Chairman of Bank of Communications International, who came to 1997. Working in Hong Kong, public information shows that he worked for the National Development and Reform Commission before 1997 and was a member of the Communist Party of China, but he denied it to the media afterwards.
Sheng Zhiwen laughed and said that he could not live in the past, "I don't want to be surprised to see a name, just like other bankers, he may be very wise."
Sheng Zhiwen pointed out that the new system is like scraping the bones, "Hong Kong is "one country, two systems", but it has Chinese characteristics." He pointed out that the colonial era has passed and the public perception needs to be changed. There is nothing wrong with the rise of power: "Gradually everyone's life will change for the better. If we stick to the old ideas, we will finish playing, and we will stay in a snail house with nothing." Sheng Zhiwen cited Brexit as a driver shortage and the US two parties are squeezing supplies. The chain breaks, and the Chinese system has worked, "Hong Kong should be fortunate to be a part of China."
Sheng Zhiwen pointed out that many foreign investors want to withdraw because of the issue of customs clearance. "But it doesn't matter. We will not die. More mainland companies will settle down for investment."

Bless those who leave with sadness over the wave of immigration: Letters will return
In Hong Kong in the post-National Security era, according to statistics from the Census and Statistics Department this year, nearly 90,000 people chose to leave Hong Kong last year.
Sheng Zhiwen said that since Occupy Central, he has been observing and felt that Hong Kong people are lost. "Human nature hates to change, but is there a problem with (National Security Law)? I was told the legal framework. I live within the framework. Touch it and you can still live a good life."
Sheng Zhiwen witnessed the immigration wave 97 years ago: "Many people left Hong Kong. Foreign media gathered in Hong Kong a week before the return. Fortune magazine used "Death in Hong Kong" as the cover story, but after ten years they all returned to Hong Kong as expected. Life." He said that he is always sad about parting and wants to leave everything well: "You can try, but it will be very difficult. You are a foreigner. Even though those places advertise openness and tolerance, I believe there will be a lot of things that are not as expected. ."
Sheng Zhiwen said that except for those who are concerned about being arrested and imprisoned for being involved in the demonstrations, I believe that the vast majority of the rest will return. I hope that Hong Kong people will appreciate the changes in China. "In 2008, I decided to become a Chinese citizen and give up Canadian citizenship. Other passports mean I really believe in this corner of the earth." He said that there is a proverb in English "The cup is half empty and half full." He is always optimistic about life, and someday the pan-people will return to the election.
I know I am a ghost, but the outside is white, and the inside is yellow, like an egg.
I am so used to living my life, and I have always regarded Hong Kong as my home.
