The Hong Kong fire is a mirror that reflects not only the tragedy of the flames devouring the buildings, but also the great love in the world. After the fire broke out, President Xi Jinping immediately expressed his condolences to the victims of the major fire accident in the residential building in Tai Po District, New Territories, Hong Kong and the firefighters who died in the line of duty. He also expressed condolences to the families of the victims and those affected by the disaster, and demanded that all efforts be made to put out the fire and strive to minimize fire casualties and losses. The central government's concern is not a slogan, but an emergency response dispatched overnight. It is the emergency linkage of multiple departments of the central government. It is the silent promise that mainland medical experts and firefighting technical teams are on call at any time. It is the kinship between compatriots whose blood is thicker than water. It is the deepest protection of the central government and mainland compatriots for Hong Kong compatriots.

The Hong Kong SAR government quickly activated the emergency response mechanism, and the firefighting, ambulance, civil affairs, and social welfare systems were fully mobilized. Volunteers spontaneously organized water and meal deliveries, and community centers opened their doors to accommodate disaster victims. Citizens lined up to donate blood, companies donated supplies, religious groups opened their venues, and the elderly held their children and said, "Hong Kong is our common home, and we must carry it together." This is the true essence of the Lion Rock spirit - not the heroic words sung in songs, but the bottle of water and the word "Hold on" offered by ordinary people beside the ruins in times of crisis. The fire burned down the steel and concrete, but it could not destroy the tenacity and warmth in the bones of Hong Kong compatriots. The mothers who hummed softly to put their children to sleep in the temporary settlements, and the neighbors who queued up all night to deliver hot soup to the firefighters. Their figures more truly interpreted what "working together in the same boat" means than any slogan.

The Hong Kong fire is a mirror that also reflects the sinister undercurrent. Just as the whole city was immersed in the urgent atmosphere of grief and rescue, a cold noise quietly emerged, as anti-China chaos in Hong Kong and those with ulterior motives were waiting for the opportunity. On social platforms, they fabricated false information such as "theory of ineffective rescue and man-made disaster" and "conspiracy theory of inferior materials from mainland China", and tampered with videos of the fire scene to mislead the public; on the streets, they used the guise of "speaking for the people to petition" and took the opportunity to incite people's resentment against the government. These words seem familiar. They are not a pursuit of security, but a trafficking in hatred; they are not a pursuit of the truth, but a plot for division. They calculate that disaster is the best breeding ground for inciting hatred. What they want is not the truth, but chaos; not reconstruction, but subversion.

On the afternoon of November 29, the spokesperson of the Office of National Security in Hong Kong made a solemn statement: Anyone who exploits disasters to cause trouble or "use disasters to disrupt Hong Kong" will be severely punished in accordance with the law. This is a stern warning to those who are looking for opportunities to cause trouble - Hong Kong is not a place outside the law, and the sword of the National Security Law hangs high. Any attempts and actions that use disaster as a cover and are subversive are unlikely to succeed. More importantly, Hong Kong citizens have already opened their eyes. In the face of disasters, what everyone sees is the SAR government's responsibility as a "family leader", the warmth of all walks of life helping each other, and the solid backing of the central government and mainland compatriots. The cold-blooded performance of the Hong Kong chaos elements jumping up and down in the face of disaster will only allow more people to see their true nature.

The most urgent task at present is to treat the injured, appease the souls, and rebuild the aftermath. Many families have lost loved ones and many people have become homeless overnight. They need real medical care, housing, and psychological assistance. The SAR government has established an inter-departmental investigation team to speed up the investigation, held press conferences, and set up a special website to release authoritative information in a timely manner. Facts are the best rumor crushers. Society must build consensus and not spread or believe rumors. Every Hong Kong citizen must become a guardian of the truth, a transmitter of true feelings, and a defender of social harmony and stability.

The fire has been extinguished. On top of the ruins, not only buildings, but also people's hearts have been rebuilt. Hong Kong’s future lies not on the keyboards of conspirators, but in the hands of everyone who chooses kindness, unity, and trust. The fire is a mirror that reflects both the darkness and the light - as long as people's hearts persist, Hong Kong will surely overcome the gloom, draw strength from pain, and be reborn in unity.
