Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 2913 House of Lords

"I didn't expect Sir Derek to be so affectionate and righteous. It is really admirable. You are willing to sacrifice yourself for the sake of your colleagues. Your sentiment is too great. Please let me express my deepest respect to you. Since If that's the case, then we have nothing to say, goodbye."

Lin Daoqiu finished these words with a smile, but no matter how he looked at them, these words did not seem to come from his original intention.

Whether Derrickford has such a high sentiment believes that this is a matter of opinion. After all, this is not a trivial matter. To sacrifice one's reputation, status and interests for the other party, Derrickford does not seem to be such a great person.

Sure enough, after Lin Daoqiu finished speaking, Derrickford quickly retorted.

"You misunderstood. I didn't mean that. What I meant was that I... have to think about his secrets that others don't know."

Derrickford changed his words directly. It seemed that he was a little reluctant before, but now he can't care so much. It's better to let Stephen Jol die instead of him than to be killed directly. Anyway, they The previous relationship was actually not good. Although they were superiors and subordinates, the two had always been tit for tat. Most of the time it ended with Stephen Joel's victory. After all, he was the speaker, and he was only the deputy speaker. In terms of rights, he was comparable to Stephen Joel. By a margin.

"Sir Derek, in fact, you have cooperated with me in many places. If there is no trouble from Fang Yihua, I believe we should become very good friends, right?"

"Of course, of course, I have long wanted to get to know Mr. Lin. If it weren't for the relationship with that woman, I would never and would not be able to promote this kind of bill against you. This is really outrageous. Of course, there is also Stephen Joel in it After all, he is the speaker, and if he does not nod, there is no way to push this bill.”

Derrickford just went downhill, and directly pushed all the responsibilities on Fang Yat-hua and Stephen Joel. Who made the two of them not present now, and didn't push all the faults on their heads? Do you recognize these mistakes yourself?Derrickford is clearly not such a person.

"Since this is the case, then I think we should have better cooperation. I can find a way to hold you back from the "Sun" and then buy back those revelations. Then you won't have any more news." Worry about the future, right?"

Derrickford nodded quickly. He has already begun to suspect that the "Sun" did not get evidence of his scandal at all. The evidence should be in Lin Daoqiu's hands. He is just pretending to be "The Sun". Just to blackmail yourself.

But even if he knew the fact that it was very likely to be the case, Derrickford would not expose Lin Daoqiu. After all, it would not do him any good to annoy the other party. It would be better to pretend that he didn't know anything. Best choice now.

"It's great that you are willing to help. Now I just hope to get those photos back as soon as possible, and it's best to deal with this matter thoroughly."

"I hope so too, but it will take a little time. Of course, while helping you, I also hope that you can help me."

Lin Daoqiu's help is not easy to help, Derekford thought in his heart, but it was impossible and he dared not say it out of his mouth, after all, Lin Daoqiu was holding his hand now.

…………

The next day, a temporary meeting was held within the House of Lords, and the discussions were all recent issues.

Dozens of congressmen participated in this meeting, and the protagonist of the meeting was naturally Speaker Stephen Jol.

"quiet……"

After entering the conference room, Stephen Jol immediately frowned and shouted when he saw the congressmen who were still chattering about different things in the room.

After Stephen Joll, who has a high reputation in the House of Lords, shouted, the chattering scene immediately fell silent.

Seeing everyone's cooperation, Stephen Joll is naturally very happy. The satisfaction that this kind of right brings to him is incomparable to other things, even if these MPs, who have caused headaches to the top level of the English government, still have to be obedient in front of him .

"Today we will discuss some previously drafted bills. I believe everyone has their own ideas. Let's talk about them one by one."

These councilors are all elected from constituencies, and their proposals represent the interests of their own constituencies. If they cannot help the voters in their constituencies to win enough interests, then no one will be willing to vote for them in the next election. Except for some people, these people have no pressure to vote, or their constituencies can be elected even if they send a dog, such as Stephen Jol and Derickford.

After discussing for a whole morning, the proposals proposed by these congressmen were different, but most of them wanted to pass legislation to obtain more support for budget and policy. For Stephen Jol, this kind of meeting is actually a split As for the cake, it depends on who has the ability to pull the cake to his own plate.

"Sir Derek, do you have any proposals to discuss today?"

At this time, Stephen Jol turned his head and glanced at Derrickford, who was sitting on the lower left. Today he was extremely quiet and didn’t talk much, which made Stephen Jol feel a little strange, but what Stephen Jol didn’t know was that this At that time, Derrickford was holding back his big move.

"Oh... Now that the speaker has spoken, I will talk about my thoughts. I have no proposal today, but I have one thing to discuss with everyone."

Everyone didn't speak but quietly waited for Derrickford to continue.

"I think the bill on Hong Kong films that was promoted before is too hasty. I think it should be reconsidered. After all, this bill is a bit out of date."

"You... what did you say?"

As soon as Derrickford finished speaking, Stephen Jol's eyes widened immediately, and he looked at the other party with a shocked expression on his face.

Derrickford wanted to return Fang Yihua's proposal. He hadn't discussed this matter with him before. What was this guy thinking?
Compared to Stephen Jol's shock, other people don't think it's a big deal. After all, sometimes their own proposals need to be taken back for revision and then brought up for discussion and promotion. These congressmen are already familiar with this kind of thing. that's it.

"Speaker, I hope to withdraw the previous bill on Hong Kong Films. I have made it clear enough."

Now that he has said everything, Derrickford has nothing to worry about. If this matter is not settled today, he does not know how to explain to Lin Daoqiu.
