Hong Kong Island Old Events

Chapter 232 The big guys gather together

Before the bill is passed, it is the best time to obtain evidence of foreign bribery.

If the company wants to exert its efforts in the Legislative Council, it must mobilize the members. Every activity during this period is an opportunity. On the contrary, after the bill is passed, there will be low-key activities between the company and the members.

Of course, foreign banks have banks under their control and control the channels for transmitting funds. It is difficult to obtain ironclad evidence, but every negligence of the other party is an opportunity.

night.

Liyuan East Street.

He Dingxian was sitting at the tea table, drinking soup, and asked his father-in-law for help: "Dad, I want to meet President Fang of the Dongguan Chamber of Commerce."

"Are you looking for Zhou Junnian?" Chu Weinan took a spoonful of pork belly soup and put it into his mouth.

Zhou Junnian is the big boss behind the Dongguan Chamber of Commerce and the top lawyer family spokesman in Hong Kong. His residence is located at No. 6 Taipingshan. His father Zhou Shaoqi is a wealthy businessman in Hong Kong Island. He was a representative of the Chinese in Hong Kong Island during the Qing Dynasty. His ancestors were colonizers of the Hong Kong government. It is a standard party that leads the way by working hard.

"yes."

"I want to see Senator Zhou."

Chow Chun-nien himself was born in 1893. He graduated from St. Stephen's College on Hong Kong Island in 1910. The following year, he went to study at Oxford University in England, where he received a bachelor's degree in law and the title of lawyer. In 1914, he returned to Hong Kong to practice law and became a barrister.

Later, he inherited his father's business and became a director of more than 10 companies. He was a prosperous businessman in Hong Kong and enthusiastic about serving the society. He was first elected as the Prime Minister of Tung Wah Hospital and Po Leung Kuk Seng. In 1923, he was appointed as a Justice of the Peace and the Chinese Chamber of Commerce. Honorary Director.

In 1929, he served as a member of the Cleanliness Bureau, and later served as chairman of the Property Maintenance Committee, chairman of the River Steamship Merchants Association, chairman of the Dongguan Chamber of Commerce, president of the Nanhua Sports Association, honorary president of the China Sports Association, and chairman of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce.

He was appointed as a member of the Legislative Council in 1931 and as a member of the Executive Council in 1946. He has two member statuses. He has been a member of the Legislative Council for 13 years and a member of the Executive Council for 22 years. He has worked under eight Hong Kong governors, setting a record in Hong Kong politics.

His younger brother Zhou Xinian is also a member of the Legislative Council.

The entire Zhou family owns shares in 80 companies, large and small, and is also the chairman of a dairy company. Their influence in Hong Kong is huge and unparalleled!

"Is it about the bill?" Chu Weinan was very concerned about his son-in-law's career development. He picked up the napkin and wiped his mouth: "No problem, I will contact President Fang for you."

As the president of the Dongguan Chamber of Commerce, Fang Suquan is the person among Dongguan merchants who can really talk to the Zhou family. If he wants to meet Zhou Junnian, he must rely on him to make the connection.

"yes."

"Even if this bill has the support of the Hong Kong Governor, it will still have to be canvassed for votes, and it will have a great influence." Ho Dingxian admitted frankly.

As a big family of the Leading Party, the first-class comprador and lawyer family, the Zhou family is actually not popular in the Chinese capital circles in Hong Kong. No one likes the Leading Party.

This is a first-rate stain!

But the reason why the leading party is so common is that it has political value. When the ghosts trust them, Chinese businessmen want to do something, and their support is inevitable.

Sometimes, when unarmed people want to survive, they really need a guiding party to help them. Fortunately, the Zhou family is not the type to do anything evil. They are well aware of the family's political value and come from the bottom of the Chinese community, and they are very committed to caring for the bottom citizens.

"I have no contact with Sir Zhou, so I can't be of much help, but President Fang should give me some face." Chu Weinan stood up, walked to the phone in the living room, and made a call. There was a brief burst of laughter. After communicating, he put down the phone, looked at He Dingxian and said: "Tomorrow at two o'clock in the afternoon, we will meet at Chairman Fang's Xiecheng Industrial."

"Thank you, Dad."

He Dingxian stood up and thanked him. Chu Weinan shook his head: "As a family, what are you saying thanks for?"

He was willing to give He Dingxian the resources he had, because his younger son was too young to use them. If his son-in-law could stand tall in the future, he would naturally have more resources to invest in his younger son. After all, the younger son has an older sister who owns a big house. Are you worried that your investment will not be rewarded?

It was precisely because He Dingxian knew that he would pay back the money in the future that he spoke rudely.

"Should I go with you tomorrow?" Chu Weinan asked.

He Dingxian smiled softly: "Of course it would be good if the president came forward."

"It really makes people happy."

East Tsim Sha Tsui.

A villa by the sea.

Fang Suquan was wearing pajamas and was in the study. He was thinking about Chu Weinan's call just now, and thought about it in his mind: "The drunkard's intention is not to drink. Weinan wants to see Sir Zhou."

Among the six Chinese members of the Legislative Council, two are from the Zhou family, one is from the Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce, two are from the Wuyi Chamber of Commerce, and one is from the Overseas Chinese Chamber of Commerce. However, the six members are all highly respected and famous people, so they cannot Look at it as a mere chamber of commerce.

Because the status and faction of the chamber of commerce cannot restrict them at all, only the younger brother has to consider the boss's thoughts. Have you ever seen a boss care about the eyes of his employees?

The six congressmen support different chambers of commerce for private purposes, but politically, the six Chinese congressmen are one!

They are a group in themselves, both offensive and defensive. Zhou Junnian is the spokesman for the six members, because the remaining five members can enter the Legislative Council more or less with his support.

"Higher Chinese" is not fake, there is power behind the abuse!

"Should we help Chaoshan people?" Fang Suquan was in a dilemma.

the next day.

noon.

After Lei Luo answered the phone, he called his younger brother: "Xijiu, ask Gao Yong from Wong Tai Sin District to come to Kowloon Tong."

Chen Xijiu didn't ask any more questions and answered, "Yes."

"Brother Luo."

Two o'clock at noon.

East Tsim Sha Tsui.

Hip Shing Building.

This is a five-story office building covering an area of ​​more than ten acres. Part of the building is used as a group warehouse.

Fang Suquan, wearing a suit and two assistants, stood in front of the gate and looked forward to it.

Three cars slowly stopped at the door, and He Dingxian, Chu Weinan, Gao Yongsheng, Lei Luo, Gao Yong and others got out of the car one after another. The number of people who came to visit far exceeded Fang Suquan's expectation, and among them was Inspector Hua from Dongguan.

This made Fang Suquan's heart skip a beat, and he quickly stepped forward to shake hands with Chu Weinan who was leading the group and exchange greetings: "Weinan, long time no see."

Chu Weinan shook hands with him, hugged him, and laughed loudly: "No, I came here specifically to visit you today."

"Axian, my name is Uncle Quan." He turned back to look at his son-in-law.

He Dingxian immediately stepped forward, bowed and shook hands: "Uncle Quan."

"What a talent." Fang Suquan looked up and down at the young man in front of him, sighed, then looked at Gao Yongsheng and Lei Luo behind him, and said hello: "Sir Gao!"

"Inspector Lei."

Gao Yongsheng and Lei Luo both stepped forward to shake hands: "Uncle Quan."

"Uncle Quan."

Among the two, Gao Yongsheng had already established good relations with major chambers of commerce after taking the position of leader of the serious crime team, and had a certain personal relationship with Fang Suquan.

The factories of Xiecheng Industrial are mainly built in Kowloon, and they often deal with Lei Luo. As for Gao Yong and several younger brothers behind him, they all leaned over: "President Fang."

"Um."

"Ayong."

Fang Suquan nodded slightly, raised his hand and said, "Please come upstairs!"

"Let's go up and ask for a cup of tea with Uncle Quan." Chu Weinan walked upstairs with Fang Suquan calmly, followed by He Dingxian, Gao Yongsheng, Lei Luo and others.

In a situation of this kind, even the head of the serious crime team and Inspector Zonghua are just minions.

No big chamber of commerce has the confidence to speak loudly!

The group came to a tea room on the third floor. Fang Suquan said: "Wei Nan, Ah Yin, Sir Zhou happened to be visiting Kwong Wah Hospital in Kowloon and had dinner with me at noon. I heard that you were coming and planned to meet with the Chinese political circles." The mainstay.”

"how."

"Give me some face?" He turned around and asked He Dingxian.

He Dingxian calmly nodded and said with a smile: "It's an honor for me that Sir Zhou is willing to see me. I happen to have something I want to consult with Sir."

"That's good." Fang Suquan smiled: "There are several Chinese congressmen traveling with us."

The door of the tea room opened, and six legislators of different ages wearing suits were standing in the room chatting.

They turned their heads following the sound and focused their attention on a young man.

Gao Yongsheng, Lei Luo, and Gao Yong looked solemn. They all stopped at the door and bowed deeply: "Sir Zhou."

Zhou Junnian is sitting on the sofa, neatly tied in suit and tie, with a pocket watch hanging on his waist. He looks like an elite gentleman with a high-society temperament, but his hair has fallen out and is covered with age spots. Next to him are Luo Wenjin, Jian Leqiang, and Xian Defen. , Wu Zhongjing, and Zhou Xinian.

Everyone is a justice of the peace, a man of great power and wealth.

It is no exaggeration to say that if six people stand together, the Governor of Hong Kong will bow first when he comes. Because the Government of Hong Kong does not have six people to act as a bridge between China and Britain to mediate social conflicts, it is impossible to issue government orders.

"Sir Zhou, Councilor Xiao Zhou, Mr. Luo, Councilor Jian, Mr. Xian, Mr. Wu." Chu Weinan also had a solemn face and stepped forward to shake hands one by one without daring to neglect.

Because each of these six people has a greater background than him, and the title of President of the Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce is respected and respected by everyone in the outside world.

In front of the six people, he was a junior.

Of course, the six members must also give Chairman Chu enough respect. After shaking hands one by one, they shook hands with He Dingxian who was introduced and said hello. As for Gao Yongsheng, Lei Luo and others, they could only stay by the side after the door was closed. As a sign.

He Dingxian brought his two famous figures and a Chaoshan agent. He thought he would be better in terms of momentum. Unexpectedly, the Dongguan Chamber of Commerce was even more prepared. Six members gathered together, all in the office. Waiting for him here!

Today, there are a total of twelve people in the room. They are the most powerful group of Chinese people in Hong Kong currently and will also be the most powerful group of people in the future.

He Dingxian stepped forward to greet the six people, and received a cup of hot tea from Fang Suquan. While drinking the tea, Fang Suquan smiled and said, "Weinan, A-Xian, just tell us what you have to say directly. We are all our own people here."

"Words in this room are more effective than in the court, and no matter what is said, it will never get out."

He Dingxian put down his tea cup with a smile and said straight to the point: "Several lords, gentlemen, and congressmen are here. As a junior, I would like to ask a few of them to help me get the Anti-Corruption Bill passed in the Legislative Council."
