Mandarin is NOT a national WRITTEN language but an official/national spoken language (dialect).  People spoken difference dialects (Mandarin, Cantonese) in China write the same Chinese characters.

Just about everyone I know (educated people) speak Mandarin in addition
to their local dialect.
In Hong Kong, you're likely to find that Cantonese dialects are the most
widely used.
