The political wrestling between CUHK and the Legislative Council member’s school board was officially buried today. Three people including Zhang Yuren proposed a private bill to the Legislative Council on the reorganization of the school board. It is expected to complete the third reading before October, and there may be another fight feet to. Looking back at the whole turmoil, the central figure is Duan Chongzhi, the president of CUHK. He was accused of conniving with the violence and was guilty of the “original sin”. The attitude is the key to whether the conflict between the two sides will intensify. A friend who knows the matter told me that some recent incidents that the outside world may not have noticed show that Grandpa regards Principal Duan quite positively. If so, it will help relieve his grievances with the establishment.
Duan Chongzhi, the president of CUHK, was invited to the Wenchang rocket launch site in Hainan last month to watch the launch of Shenzhou 6, which shows that my grandfather has a very positive view of him.
A friend said that on the 10th of last month, the Tianzhou-6 cargo spacecraft was carried into space by the Long March 7 rocket, and it was launched at the Wenchang Space Launch Site in Hainan that night. The “cargo” transported by the spacecraft was 3 Plant drought-tolerant soybean seeds. For this reason, Grandpa specially invited President Duan to the Wenchang launch site to watch the rocket take off. He was accompanied by Lin Hanming, the core member of the team and professor of life sciences at CUHK.
Don’t underestimate this arrangement. The Wenchang rocket launch site is a highly sensitive place, and it is not easy for ordinary people to visit it. He was invited to watch the grand launch of the rocket, which reflects the importance and trust of the mainland’s top management for him and CUHK.
My friend also cited another example, saying that three months before this event, Shenzhen Mayor Qin Weizhong visited CUHK and attended the ceremony where President Duan signed an agreement to strengthen cooperation in education and scientific research with representatives of the Shenzhen government. In addition to visiting the campus, the two also Especially take a photo at the “Heaven and Man Unity” at the campus check-in location. As Shenzhen’s top leader, this gesture also reflects the official view of President Duan.
He said that a recent incident can also be mentioned. Last Wednesday, the mainland’s official media “China News Service” conducted a video interview for President Duan. From the 60th anniversary of the founding of CUHK, he talked about the mission of CUHK. He specifically proposed that CUHK should combine tradition and modernity, and integrate China and The west. The official media decides who to interview and how big to cover, of course there are careful political considerations behind it.
In fact, this change did not happen recently. Last September, on the opening day of CUHK, the national flag raising ceremony was held for the first time. At that time, in addition to the two bureau chiefs of the Hong Kong government and the “first brother” of the police force, the Liaison Office of the Central People’s Government, the Office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Hong Kong, and the Office of National Security officials were present. At that time, some analysts pointed out that the “reversal” actions of some members of the establishment did not represent Grandpa’s ideas. The general direction of the above was to seek harmony and put aside conflicts to look forward. In view of recent developments, the idea was beginning to emerge at the time.
Whether President Duan’s opinion is positive or not depends on his actual performance. After the implementation of the “Hong Kong National Security Law”, the CUHK University took steps to rectify the chaos, and it was indeed a lot more positive. In addition to toughening up the student union, it also opened a new one related to national security. The national conditions course is not as soft-handed as in the past.
Zhang Yuren and others have proposed a private bill to reorganize the CUHK Council. The two sides have a chance to reach a compromise. It is estimated that they will not continue to insist on “backtracking” to pull him out of power.
The reorganization proposed by Zhang Yuren and others this time is not significantly different from the proposal drawn up by the CUHK Board of Trustees. If Zhang Yuren can do what he said, “Politics requires everyone to compromise” and is willing to give and take, it is not monolithic, and the differences will not be difficult to resolve.
The key lies in whether they continue to insist on “reversal” and still want to use reorganization to bring down the principal, but if this is not what Grandpa wants, I believe they will not insist on it. The grievances left by the “black storm” It is also expected to be relieved.
