雖然船長沒有派發什麼任務,但我的研究工作有了新的進展。

一方面是我著手調查這艘「飛行的香港人」號正在前往的目的地。雖然我曾經問過船長,但據他表示他也不清楚,航向是一早設計好的程式,他跟我一樣,醒來的時候就已經在船上,只是他被派遣了船長的任務。

根據船上的圖書館裡的資料,我認為有以下幾種可能性:

1. 「方舟計劃」
一九八三年,英國雷丁大學學者戴維斯(Christie Davies)提出的「方舟計劃」,將全港約五百五十萬人口全數調遷到北愛爾蘭,並得到內部一定討論。


2. 「新香港」計畫
一九八九年六月二十日,蘇格蘭報紙《The Glasgow Herald》曾報道,謂一個英國智庫建議在一九九七年後,在蘇格蘭重建一個獨立行政區「新香港」,讓希望離開「舊香港」的港人重新開始建立屬於香港的一切。

3.「Sim City計畫」
今年一月,房地產基金老闆高廣垣(Ivan)聯合一班專業人士,發起海外建SimCity計劃,帶香港人集體移民。目前已經與愛爾蘭的官員溝通當中,希望面積10至20平方公里,容納20萬人。「按香港軟實力、文化基礎,建立一個國際性,有民主、自由的城市。」

我們所在的這艘船,應該就是以上三種可能性(或者不可能性)產生出來的幻影,因此這是一艘「鬼船」。

另一方面,對於一直纏繞我的幽靈,我決定為他們建造一個異質空間,在我的想像中,那應該是一個半封閉的沙灘,讓他們具象化的實體可以稍作休息。因為根據馬克思說,我們為幽靈只能做一件事,那就是將其變幻:要么使它們變成現實(這是他對共產主義的希望),要么使它們完全消散。

The captain did not assign any tasks, but my research has some new progress.

On one hand, I set out to investigate the destination that this "flying Hongkonger" was heading out. Although I once asked the captain, he knew nothing about it. The direction was a designed program. When he woke up, he was already on the ship like me and was appointed to be the captain.

Based on the information in the library on board, I think there are several possibilities:

1."Ark Plan"
 In 1983, the "Ark Plan" was proposed by Christie Davies, a scholar at the University of Reading in the United Kingdom, to relocate the entire population of 5.5 million people to Northern Ireland.

2. "New Hong Kong" 
On June 20, 1989, a Scottish newspaper "The Glasgow Herald" reported that a British thinker proposed to rebuild an independent administrative district "New Hong Kong" in Scotland after 1997, to let  "Hongkonger, who wanted to leave "the old Hong Kong" to re-establish everything of their hometown.

3."SimCity plan" 
This year, real estate fund owner Ivan Ko and a group of professionals launched an overseas "SimCity plan" to bring Hong Kong people to immigrate as a group. At present, they have communicated with Irish officials, hoping to cover an area of 10 to 20 square kilometers and accommodate 200,000 people. "Based on Hong Kong's soft power and cultural foundation, we will build an international city with democracy and freedom."

The ship we are in should be a phantom produced by the above possibilities (or impossibilities ), so this is a "Ghost Ship".

On the other hand, for the specters who have always been haunting me, I decided to build a heterotopia for them. In my imagination, it should be a semi-closed beach, so that their materialized entities can take a rest. According to Marx, there is only one thing one can do with specters and that is to conjure them away: either by making them materialize – which was his hope for communism – or by making them dissolve completely.
