Chapter 168

"Republican Party?"

In his previous life, Director Guan Zu only paid attention to Hong Kong films, but he was not familiar with these parties at all.

"I don't know, Mr. Ni, what is this for?"

"Hahaha~~~ Mr. Director Guan, don't play dumb. I'm looking for you, naturally, for the Legislative Councilor matter."

When Director Guan Zu heard it was about the Legislative Councilor matter, he immediately thought of a lot.

This Republican Party's purpose is probably for the Legislative Councilor. Then, spreading it out, do all those running for Legislative Councilor in Hong Kong have parties?

Then?

Should I contact a party?

Brother Xiu has said that having a party is very normal, so it's nothing for me to join a party.

Director Guan Zu remained calm: "Haha, okay, see you tomorrow... I don't know the time and place?"

Republican Party Chairman Ni Ming: "Peninsula Hotel, Spring Moon private room, Tai character private room, tomorrow night at 19:00..."

Director Guan Zu smiled: "Okay, see you there."

Hanging up the phone, Director Guan Zu thought to himself that he still knew too little about capital and the middle class, so he still needed to find a suitable person to understand it.

There is one more thing: since it is legislation, should I find a more suitable legal advisor?

"Who should I find?"

A name naturally appeared in Director Guan Zu's mind.

Councilor Jian Councilor Jian Aowei!

Councilor Jian Councilor Jian Aowei is a typical person with a British education background, a top student at Lincoln University Law School, and once served as the Law School's law chairman.

However, he is also a very contradictory person. He likes stir-fried noodles, zongzi, and Red Star Erguotou for meals, and what he likes most is film cameras.

He has the legal thinking of the British faction and the cultural cultivation of China.

More importantly, this guy is a neutralist, judging things on their merits rather than the person. He doesn't care what faction you are in; he only follows the legal system.

In "Cold War 2", he was invited by his fellow apprentice Li Yonglian and finally joined the Legislative Council's investigation into the major mistake made by Liu Situ Jie Society (Mainland faction), wanting to impeach Liu Situ Jie Society... As a result, halfway through, he discovered that he had been used by the British faction, was furious, said "I, Councilor Jian Councilor Jian Aowei, will never be a pawn," and then turned on them, knocking the British faction over.

The whole person can be considered a perfect symbol of jurisprudence.

Of course, there is another possibility—he is a utilitarian person who knows that he cannot beat the Mainland, so he wants to defect to the Mainland.

No matter which one Councilor Jian Councilor Jian Aowei is, Director Guan Zu feels that this person is a good partner.

Moreover, there is another point: Councilor Jian Councilor Jian Aowei's brother, Councilor Jian Councilor Jian Dingchi, they themselves are middle-class capitalists with hundreds of millions in assets, which should be helpful for Director Guan Zu to understand the political parties in Hong Kong.

"Find time to meet with Councilor Jian Councilor Jian Dingchi..."

"Perhaps, winning over Councilor Jian Councilor Jian Aowei, a future senior barrister, independent Legislative Councilor, and owner of a powerful relationship network, and sending Councilor Jian Councilor Jian Dingchi a Legislative Councilor seat is not impossible."

With Director Guan Zu's speed, half a year is enough for him to expand his support rate to the Central and Western District (Central, Western District) of Hong Kong Island. When the election comes, he can take 2 Legislative Councilor seats in this area.

By then, he can hold 6 Legislative Councilor seats in his hands.

18,

he occupies 6, one-third.

"So, the most important thing is to figure out the background, and then get the candidate qualification!"

……

……

A new day.

The Police Public Relations Branch gathered all the media in Hong Kong. Commissioner Huang Bingyao and Public Relations Branch Superintendent Fang Jiexia were present to conduct a detailed case briefing on the major counterfeit case last night.

"Last night, after careful deployment, our police successfully solved a counterfeit manufacturing and circulation case involving a huge amount of money and a tight organization."

Commissioner Huang Bingyao gave a comprehensive and in-depth elaboration on the details of the case's detection and the arrest process of the suspects...

The entire briefing lasted nearly 2 hours...

……

Li Changjiang went to North Point early in the morning, worried, found a long-distance phone, and called the old shop in his hometown, and then notified his father through the shop owner.

He hadn't been able to get in touch for the past few days, so he could only continue to call today.

And the nightmare last night made him have a bad premonition.

After waiting for more than 20 minutes, his father's voice finally came from the other end of the phone.

Li Changjiang's nose soured.

"Dad!"

"Changjiang, are you okay?" Li's father on the other side was surprised and panicked, "How are you living over there? Are you hungry? Do you have a place to live?"

Li Changjiang's eyes turned red: "Dad, I'm doing very well now, don't worry, I have food, money, a place to live, and a girlfriend."

"Really? You aren't lying to me, are you?"

"It's true, I'm not lying to you. My girlfriend's name is Chang Man, she also smuggled over. When I have time later, I'll bring her to see you and call you Dad..."

When Li's father heard this, he was immediately very happy: "Good, good, good... then I can rest assured."

Li's father wiped his tears on the other end of the phone. He had been worried for a long time, fearing that his son Li Changjiang would have an accident. Now hearing this good news, he couldn't help but be happy.

"By the way, son, you wouldn't have committed a crime, would you?" Suddenly Li's father asked seriously.

"Absolutely not!" Li Changjiang said.

"Then how did you earn money as someone without even an identity?" Li's father asked.

Li Changjiang paused. If he hadn't met Brother Zu, perhaps he would still be forced by Chang Man to commit crimes...

"Don't worry, Dad, I met a good person... I'll introduce him to you later." Li Changjiang wiped his tears.

"That's good, that's good."

Actually, Li's father felt that his son was comforting him. Where in the world is there such a good person?

Suddenly Li's father thought of something and said nervously: "Son, you should also be careful over there. I heard news that someone is going over to arrest you."

Li Changjiang's heart tightened.

Isn't this exactly the same as the nightmare he had yesterday?

Could it be that someone really wants to arrest me?

"Do you know the specific situation?"

"I'm not clear either, I just heard the news... wait... someone is coming, I'll hang up the phone first."

*Du du du... *

On the other end of the phone, the sound of hanging up came.

Li Changjiang thought about it, found a younger brother to watch here, and then left first.

Not long after, Li Changjiang returned to Causeway Bay, worried.

"Brother Zu, there is one more thing I haven't told you..."

Li Changjiang was full of guilt,

"Actually, I am a fugitive..."

Li Changjiang told the story of what he had encountered, and then swore: "I swear, I didn't do anything criminal. It was just because it was too coincidental that it led to a misunderstanding, and then I fled to Hong Kong."

"After I came to Hong Kong, I thought they wouldn't come over, but they still came... Brother Zu, I'm sorry, I caused you trouble."

Li Changjiang lowered his head in shame.

He was already waiting for Director Guan Zu's anger. He decided that no matter how much Brother Zu scolded him, he would take it. After all, he really caused a big disaster for Brother Zu.

Who knew... Director Guan Zu didn't get angry, but pondered for a moment and said to Li Changjiang.

"Don't worry, you are my brother, your business is my business!"

"I'll see if I can help you mediate this matter."

"During this time, you take Chang Man out to avoid the limelight first, and I'll get a fake identity for you."

"Wait until I finish dealing with it, then you come back."

He just happened to want to meet this Mao Xiang Yang.

According to his memory of films, there are a few opportunities to contact the North. One is Section Chief Yang in "Police Story". One is Deputy Director Shi in "Black Society". Another is Xu Xu Zhengyang in "The Bodyguard from Beijing". And another is Mao Xiang Yang in "Long Arm of the Law 3".

The first one hasn't reached the right time yet, Section Chief Yang hasn't come to Hong Kong; Director Guan Zu doesn't want to contact Deputy Director Shi; Xu Xu Zhengyang is even harder to contact; but Mao Xiang Yang's background is a bit interesting. He is in the judicial field, and based on the plot in "Long Arm of the Law 3", this Mao Xiang Yang dares to directly threaten the foreigner boss of the police station, so his status is obviously not low.

Now that the Legislative Council direct election is being reformed, Director Guan Zu feels that this is just a good time to contact Mao Xiang Yang.

I also want to be patriotic!

I also want to be a part that can be united.

!.

When Li Changjiang heard that Director Guan Zu not only didn't get angry but also thoughtfully helped him go out to hide for a while, he was even more moved.

"Brother Zu, your great kindness, I, Li Changjiang, will never forget! I will go through fire and water, and I will not hesitate!"

Director Guan Zu didn't doubt Li Changjiang's words because that 100% loyalty was hanging over his head.

Soon,

Li Changjiang took the money, brought Chang Man, and went to Lantau Island.

There are many mountains and few people there, just find a place to hide, and nothing will be found.

After Li Changjiang left,

Gao Qiu found Director Guan Zu to report the progress of the "Wanchai Reading Month · Knowledge Cup".

"According to your instructions, Brother Zu, we have set rewards for the top 100. 51-100 place, each receives 1000 HKD reward + commemorative book, 11-50 place, 2000 HKD reward + commemorative book, and will be published in the newspaper."

"As for the top 10, according to your suggestion, we need to find ATV and TVB. Currently, TVB refused to meet, but ATV agreed to meet. The time is tonight."

Director Guan Zu nodded: "Okay!"

After Gao Qiu left,

A-Hua also collected some information about the Legislative Council and rushed back to report to Director Guan Zu.

"The Legislative Council can be traced back to 1843. That year, the Governor's Office announced the 'Charter' and 'Royal Instructions' issued by Queen Victoria. From then on, it authorized the establishment of the Executive Council and the Legislative Council."

A-Hua obviously consulted professionals and introduced it from the 19th century.

At that time, the Legislative Council was obviously the Governor's one-man show, but this is also normal. During the British Hong Kong government, the position of Governor was the Emperor, and the Chief Secretary was the Prime Minister.

However, it wasn't until after 1983 that the situation changed.

The foreigners started to make trouble.

The Legislative Council began to brew changes.

From A-Hua's report, Director Guan Zu saw the game between great powers.

In order to continue to maintain their interests in this peninsula to the greatest extent in the future, the foreigners began to reform the Chief Secretary, Financial Secretary, and Secretary for Justice during this period before withdrawing.

Director Guan Zu remembered one thing at this time—the change in education.

Director Guan Zu had heard of this in his previous life. Before withdrawing, the foreigners began to change: stipulating—every school can formulate its own textbooks and has great autonomy without being restricted by the above.

Director Guan Zu hadn't heard anything about the evolution of the Legislative Council.

And now, he is experiencing this evolution, and suddenly he felt the key point.

Perhaps!

Of all the reforms before the foreigners withdrew, the most important reform should be—the reform of the Legislative Council!

Starting from the Legislative Council, control the judiciary, and then control the operation of the entire city.

The Legislative Council is the key!

The most critical of all!

The core!

With this understanding, when Director Guan Zu continued to listen to A-Hua's report on the Legislative Council's information, he suddenly became high-minded.

He discovered many places that might not have been discovered before.

In 1984, the foreigners began to prepare for the "representative government" reform plan, and then conducted the first election in 1985, producing 12 elected councilors (non-direct election), and in 1991, which is this year, the foreigners increased it to 18 directly elected councilors.

According to the original history, in the future, the foreigners will take action step by step. In 1993, the first Legislative Council President was elected by themselves, separated from the Executive Council; the 1995 Legislative Council election canceled the appointed seats, making all councilors produced by direct election or disguised direct election, and the Legislative Council President was elected by councilors, thereby completely separating the Legislative Council from the Executive Council.

Up to this point, the Legislative Council completely got rid of administrative control and became the foreigners' private land. (This Legislative Council has the power to impeach the Chief Executive.)

And what goes with it is changing the way Legislative Councilors are produced, from the original "government appointment," gradually expanding the proportion of elected councilors, and finally no government appointment at all, all direct election... this enhances the independence and representativeness of the Legislative Council.

Up to this point, the representative system is completely completed.

Although Director Guan Zu doesn't know what happened after 1991, he has already felt the foreigners' malicious intentions through the changes in 1985 and 1991.

Furthermore, Director Guan Zu began to jump out of the game and began to look at this direct election of councilors from a God's perspective for the first time.

"Direct election..."

"It seems that this time, I must be elected!"

Director Guan Zu sneered.

Direct election?

Who can compare the number of votes with me?

All are trash!

Subsequently, A-Hua reported on the identity of this Ni Ming and the identity of the Republican Party members.

Lawyers, business circles...

As soon as Director Guan Zu heard these people, he knew what they were made of.

"Very good, tonight I'll see what kind of drama this Ni Ming can perform!"

Director Guan Zu's mouth curled.

……

At this time, on the other side,

Mao Xiang Yang had already crossed the border, got on a car in the border area, and headed straight for the Wanchai Police Headquarters building.

Not long after,

he met the Commissioner of the Police Force, Johns.

Johns received Mao Xiang Yang coldly, and didn't care much about what Mao Xiang Yang said about "arresting Li Changjiang and handing him over to the Northern police."

"No problem, leave it to me!"

He patted his chest loudly~~ Actually, he didn't take it seriously in his heart, and didn't want to use any police force to handle such things.

Mao Xiang Yang felt what this Commissioner wanted to do, but it was not easy to lose his temper on the spot. He would come again after a while, and by then, if he exploded, the police force would be speechless.

"During this time, go to investigate and contact those left-wing comrades first to understand the situation."

Mao Xiang Yang thought so in his heart.

Soon, he left the Police Headquarters and took a car to the New Territories. Most of the left-wing comrades were over in the New Territories.

……

……

At night, 18:00,

Spring Moon private room, Tai character private room.
