So,

In the 1985 functional constituency election, Si Ye won the Legislative Councilor of the functional constituency/education.

And this year, because the Hong Kong British government set up regional direct election seats for the first time, Si Ye switched to regional direct election, which is the current Kowloon East constituency, and handed over the education sector seat to the new president Zhang Guang.

According to the strength of the Education Association, Zhang Guang is 100% able to get the education functional constituency/Legislative Councilor seat.

And Si Ye is now waiting for today's election results.

On the other side,

Si Ye's successor, Zhang Guang, is also conducting the election.

The voters in the education sector are individual voters, mainly registered education workers, that is, teachers who go to vote with their work permits.

Besides the education sector, on the judicial side,

This time Jian Aowei also participated in the Legislative Councilor election and became one of the candidates.

The election in the judicial sector is more complicated than the education sector, and voters have more requirements.

Jian Aowei himself felt that there was little hope for this Legislative Councilor election, and he was just testing the waters.

At this time,

He was already a bit regretful.

Last time Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu invited him to join the Five Star Group system, he could send him to be a Legislative Councilor.

Now thinking about it, he wants to slap himself.

Why did he have to be stubborn at the beginning?

Forget it, forget it!

Missed it, then I will continue to maintain my cold image!

Looking up to the sky, tears!

As the afterglow of the setting sun gradually spilled over the sky of Hong Kong,

From the border area to Tuen Mun, from Sai Kung to Tsuen Wan, from Kwun Tong to Ho Man Tin, from Sham Shui Po to the outlying islands... the streets outside the polling stations were still crowded, but compared to the hustle and bustle of the morning and noon, it was now slightly deserted.

But this desolation contains endless tension and expectation.

Inside the polling station, the staff had been busy all day and could finally rest a little.

Of course...

The above situation did not happen in Wan Chai, Central and Western District, North Point, Chai Wan, Yau Tsim Mong, Wong Tai Sin, Kowloon City...

These places were still bustling, and many neighbors who had to work in the morning and noon ran to the polling stations to vote one after another.

19:00, TVB and ATV news were reporting on today's election,

"Good evening, viewers, welcome to watch... I am the host Wen Huixin..."

"First, please watch the all-weather live report of the 1991 Legislative Councilor election..."

The camera switched to the busy scene in the polling station during the day.

"During the day, the polling station was bustling with noise and excitement, and the order was orderly. Every voter carefully reviewed the candidate list and cast their sacred vote cautiously."

The camera switched, inserting voter interview clips,

"We interviewed several voters, and they all expressed that this election is crucial to the future of Hong Kong, and they hope to contribute to the development of Hong Kong through their choices."

The camera turned to the scene where the polling station gradually became quiet at dusk

"As the sun sets, many polling stations have gradually ushered in the end of the voting peak..."

"And some constituencies, at this time, the polling station has ushered in the voting peak... especially in Wan Chai, it is more bustling than during the day..."

Switched to the interview screen,

"According to our interviews, most citizens voted for the famous philanthropist Mr. Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu and Mr. Liu Hua, who has always brought huge happiness to the street..."

"Citizens said that they have to work during the day, so they came to vote after work to support and thank these two candidate councilors for their huge contribution to the community~~~"

Seeing this, all citizens of Hong Kong probably understood what happened.

The last donation had already made Hong Kong recognize Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's terrifying appeal.

Today, there are so many more people going to vote in Wan Chai than in other districts,

It is clear that they are all going to support Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu and vote for Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu.

West Kowloon, at Chen Jiaju's home,

Ah Mei watched the TV news report and asked Chen Jiaju: "Jiaju, do you think Brother Zu's votes will be very many?"

Jiaju: "Should be very many."

Ah Mei: "When the time comes, Brother Zu and Brother Wah get hundreds of thousands of votes, while other candidates only have a few thousand votes, wouldn't that be funny?"

Thinking of that scene, Ah Mei couldn't help but want to laugh.

Chen Jiaju thought for a while and also laughed.

(Cao Chali scolded: Damn it~! I can't hide it!)

And at this time,

Central, Maxim's Palace.

This is where Xinhua News Agency holds the National Day reception banquet every year.

Cars drove in from outside one after another.

Representatives from all sides of Hong Kong who are close to the mainland will be invited, including the son-in-law of the Bao Ship King family, the Huo family, the Hu family, etc., and the former boss of ATV, Boss Qiu, will also come...

Speaking of the Huo family, they were once a big family, one of the first enterprises to do real estate, and Boss Huo was also the president of the Real Estate Chamber of Commerce, but later they were messed up by British capital, and the losses were huge.

This incident happened in 1962, when he started building a commercial building—Star House. Because of its superior location, he originally planned to rent it out to collect rent and make money. However, this plan encountered targeting by the government, and the telephone company refused to provide telephone services for the building.

In the end, Boss Huo had no choice but to be forced to sell it at a low price, and finally, the Hong Kong British government combined with other forces to forcibly acquire this building at a low price.

It was after this incident that his real estate business was gradually surpassed by Boss Li and others, and gradually fell into the second-tier family.

Midway,

A blue Bentley drove to the entrance, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu and Sister Ruan Mei got off the car.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu wore a black suit, suit pants, black-rimmed glasses... well, in this kind of occasion, it's not good to be too handsome and dazzling, so dress mature and steady.

Then, holding hands with Sister Ruan Mei, who was wearing a gorgeous evening dress, stepped into Maxim's Palace.

The banquet hall inside Maxim's Palace was brightly lit, and many people had already come.

Tycoon Zheng had already come.

Seeing Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, he smiled and brought Mrs. Zheng over: "Hahaha~~ you finally came... come, I'll take you for a walk..."

Tycoon Zheng knew that Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu was very familiar with Mr. Zhu of China Resources, but Mr. Zhu had a special status, so Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu should not get too close tonight, otherwise, when the Viceroy comes later, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu would be embarrassed.

Bringing Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu himself is the most appropriate.

"Trouble you!"

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu and Sister Ruan Mei, led by Tycoon Zheng, shuttled through the crowd, shaking hands and greeting every business tycoon and social celebrity one by one.

"Mr. Qiu, long admired your name~~"

Boss Qiu laughed: "Mr. Guan, should I congratulate you in advance for becoming a Legislative Councilor?"

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu smiled: "Don't dare, don't dare, until the last moment, I don't dare to say I'm stable."

Then introduced Tycoon Huo, Ship King Bao, Tycoon Guo... and others.

Everyone had been hearing about Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu recently, but hadn't really seen him, and seeing him today...

Took a cold breath!

This son... so young!

Must not... eh, got it wrong, come again!

Then Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu took a wine glass and clinked glasses with Boss Li.

Boss Li looked at Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu with a smile: "Mr. Guan, I heard that your supermarket is going to open on the 20th of this month."

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu looked 'shocked': "Boss Li, you... how did you know? You arranged a spy?!"

Boss Li smiled slightly: "There is no need for any spy at all... However, Mr. Guan, you bet 500 million Hong Kong dollars at once, aren't you afraid of losing everything?"

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu 'furious': "I lose? When the time comes, you will be the one who loses!"

Boss Li chuckled and turned to leave.

He had already studied Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's Five Star Supermarket thoroughly.

This supermarket, it would be strange if it could be run!

He sat and watched Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu being complacent, and then sat and watched Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu fall... tsk tsk tsk~~~~

Boss Li's mood was simply beautiful!

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's mouth curled.

Boss Li, oh Boss Li, you think you are standing on the 100th floor, but you don't know I am standing in the atmosphere!

Subsequently, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu took Sister Ruan Mei, chatted with the president for a few words, stopped at the point, and chatted with Mr. Zhu for a few words...

Also met Captain Shi.

"Hello..."

"Hello..."

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu pretended not to know Captain Shi, and Captain Shi didn't say much, just watched Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu quietly from afar.

He found that Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's network was already a bit scary.

And not far away, there was another person paying attention to Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu————the leader of the new society, Boss Xu!

However, at this time, he was just a lackey, and didn't even have the courage to appear in public.

Watching Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu talking and laughing with those tycoons, he couldn't help but envy.

Just when the guests in the banquet hall were talking and laughing, or whispering...

Suddenly, a slight commotion came from the entrance,

Everyone looked over,

Only to see a ghost in a stiff suit walking in slowly, followed by two ghosts.

It was the Viceroy Wei Dewei.

As soon as he came, the atmosphere of the entire banquet hall instantly became cold.

He is the undisputed local emperor in Hong Kong at present.

Wei Dewei ignored everyone, chatted with the president for a few words, then his eyes swept over everyone present, and then raised the wine glass in his hand and said in a deep voice:

"On this special day, let us wish Hong Kong a more prosperous and stable future." The guests responded one after another and drank together.

After Wei Dewei finished this short speech, he did not stay too long, but simply exchanged a few words with several important guests.

Then, accompanied by his entourage, he left the banquet hall quickly.

After he left, the atmosphere of the banquet finally became a little warmer.

21:30,

After the banquet, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu and Sister Ruan Mei walked out of Xinhua News Agency.

At this time, the night was deep, but the neon lights of Hong Kong were still bright.

Ah Xing drove the car and stopped outside. Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, Sister Ruan Mei, and Xiao Fu sat into the blue Bentley, the car door closed gently, isolating the hustle and bustle of the outside world.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu looked at his watch: "There is still 1 hour before the election ends..."

Sister Ruan Mei: "This election, you guys definitely have no problem."

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "That's what I said, but I still hope the answer will be revealed early..."

!.

Not only Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, but for the candidates, this time waiting for the answer to be revealed is undoubtedly the most tormenting.

Si Ye couldn't sleep at home, afraid of overturning.

He hoped to get the latest progress of the election as soon as possible, but counting the votes takes a long time, at least until tomorrow noon to get the results.

And Zhang Guang was also unable to sleep at home, both looking forward to and nervous.

Jian Aowei was no exception, although he also felt there was little hope.

As time passed, Hong Kong at night gradually quieted down, but the heat of the election did not diminish at all.

22:30, this Legislative Councilor vote officially ended.

The staff of all polling stations in Hong Kong began to close the files quickly. According to the regulations, they need to transport the ballot boxes to the central counting station of the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre within half an hour.

The Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre is located opposite Victoria Harbour in Tsim Sha Tsui and belongs to the reclamation part. It is said that it is related to Feng Shui fighting, which pitted a Viceroy to death.

Inside the Convention and Exhibition Centre,

Central counting station,

The number of counters set up this year is 100.

That is to say, 100 groups of staff are doing the counting work.

At this time, 23:00,

The lights in the Convention and Exhibition Centre are not extinguished, and the noise is loud.

100 counting groups have been busy since noon, counting the first batch from noon, the second batch in the evening, and now counting the third batch at night.

Next, they need to stay up all night and count without rest.

And the whole counting process is filmed by surveillance.

However,

At this time, a consensus has begun to spread within the counting group————

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, Gao Jin, Liu Hua, and other 7 candidates have basically locked in the victory, and the votes behind almost don't need to be counted.

Because—

The number of votes is more than 100 times different from other candidates!

Too fierce!

A new day,

Most of the headlines in Hong Kong newspapers are reporting on yesterday's Legislative Councilor election.

"Yesterday's Legislative Councilor election voting was unprecedentedly grand"

"Candidates Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, Liu Hua feared to be the biggest winners!"

"Central counting station at the Convention and Exhibition Centre, staying up all night!"

"Counting ended at 2:00 am, 39 Legislative Councilor seats, who will they eventually fall to?"

Of course, there are also leftist newspapers like "Ta Kung Pao" and "Wen Wei Po," the headlines are—"Celebrate National Day, Xinhua News Agency holds reception, guests gathered!"

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu got up early in the morning,

Took Sister Ruan Mei downstairs, and went to the Chaoshan fish ball noodle breakfast shop with Xiao Fu and Ah Xing to eat breakfast.

Bought a newspaper at the newsstand on the way.

Arrived at the breakfast shop, the fish ball noodle boss was very persuadable and had already bought a TV and hung it on the wall, which was reporting the morning news of ATV.

Sister Ruan Mei ordered breakfast,

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu picked up the newspaper and read it.

"In the Legislative Councilor election held yesterday, citizens of Hong Kong participated actively..."

"With the progress of voting, some constituencies have gradually become deserted, but the Wan Chai constituency polling point appeared more bustling in the evening..."

"In the interview, Mr. Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu and Mr. Liu Hua became the popular choices of citizens..."

"Central counting station at the Convention and Exhibition Centre, the lights were on until after 2:00 am last night..."

Sister Ruan Mei was curious: "Didn't it say that the counting was finished at 2:00 am? Why is it not announced yet?"

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu laughed: "You don't take the Viceroy as a big official; the Viceroy has to sleep."

Sister Ruan Mei heard...

Seems to be really the case.

Si Ye and Zhang Guang, the poison textbook black hands, got up early this morning and went to buy newspapers early.

Took a look, the result has not been announced yet.

On the other side,

Mr. He An, a candidate from the leftist Education Federation, is also waiting for the results of the Legislative Councilor election.

He was pushed out by the leftist Education Federation to compete with the rightist poison textbook Zhang Guang for the education functional constituency Legislative Councilor.

However, he was not very confident.

Because the members of the Education Association are three times more than the members of the Education Federation!

And in terms of mobilization ability, the leftists are also relatively weak.

Under the sun, the entire Hong Kong began to get busy,

Although the voting for the Legislative Councilor election has been settled, the real suspense has just begun.

Everywhere in Hong Kong, everyone is curious about the final result of the Legislative Councilor.

A certain breakfast shop, noisy, the morning news on the TV screen is scrolling.

"When will the election results be announced?"

"Yes, it's 9 o'clock now..."

Many people expressed their views, guessing who might become the new Legislative Councilor. Some mentioned a candidate's policy proposition, while others paid more attention to the interesting things in the election process.

And on buses and subways, the topic of the election also became the focus of passengers' heated discussion.

"I heard from a friend that the votes of Mr. Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu and the others far exceeded the votes of others. The difference is more than a hundred times!"

"Really?"

"Seems to be true, the opponent only has a few hundred votes, while Mr. Guan and the others have hundreds of thousands of votes, the gap is very outrageous."

"That's too exaggerated, right?"

Whether it is in breakfast shops, buses and subways, or on the streets and alleys, or in office places, people are heatedly discussing this grand event that attracts the attention of all of Hong Kong, looking forward to the announcement of the final result.

Government House.

9:30 am,

At this time, Viceroy Wei Dewei finished swimming, took a bath, changed clothes, drank a cup of coffee, and began to work officially.

The first thing is the Legislative Councilor vote result, let him look at it and sign it.

20 minutes ago,

Henry, the chairman of the Legislative Committee, had already taken the final election result list and arrived at Government House, waiting for the Viceroy to summon him.

"Viceroy!"

"This one is the vote result counted last night."

"Please take a look."

Viceroy Wei Dewei took the list and looked at it.

More than 180 candidates, each candidate showed the number of votes behind.

Functional constituency:

Medical sector...

Judicial sector...

Education sector: Zhang Guang 15,193 votes, He An 830 votes

Looking all the way down...

Finally, came to the constituency direct election side:

Hong Kong Island East: Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu 242,543 votes, Gao Jin 242,543 votes, Cao Chali 767 votes...

Viceroy Wei Dewei: "............"
