Hong Kong Film: Jimmy? Please call me Councillor Li

Chapter 190 Meeting with Jiang Tiansheng (Camel)

[Overall support rate in Hong Kong +2.5%]

"!!!"

When flashes of red light appeared on the screen in his mind, Li Jiayuan's mind went blank, and he almost slipped off his chair. The intense shock overwhelmed his joy, leaving him unable to react for a long time.

Very popular!

Hidden bonus!
Moreover, it was the support rate across Hong Kong. For a moment, Li Jiayuan felt his tongue burning and his mouth dry. He couldn't even describe the excitement and joy in his heart.

Overall approval rating in Hong Kong remains at 2.5%.
This is the approval rating across Hong Kong, across Hong Kong!!!

The total population of Hong Kong Island is currently around six million.

Converted to 2.5, that's at least tens of thousands of supporters.

Just thinking about it is so exciting that I can't sleep. Moreover, the system prioritizes supporters from young adults to the elderly and then to children.

If all of these tens of thousands of yuan can be successfully redeemed among young adults, it means he will have tens of thousands of followers.

The more I think about it, the more I realize the importance of this 2.5.

He's only just getting started. He hasn't even brought the welfare agency down yet. He's only released a news article, and the system has already pulled such a big move. If this matter is accomplished, what kind of reward will the system give him!
He had expected to receive a very generous reward for this attack on the Welfare Department, but he never expected Brother Tongzi to be so generous.

If you think about it carefully, you can probably come to the conclusion that once the Welfare Bureau is forced to reform the system, any changes, as long as they are positive, will benefit the entire population of Hong Kong Island.

When it comes to matters related to people's livelihoods, the system always allocates the maximum possible rewards.

Originally, Li Jiayuan only wanted the Welfare Department to reform its system, but since the system was so generous, he would be doing a disservice to the generosity of the system if he didn't make a greater effort for the underprivileged people of Hong Kong.

News about Li Jiayuan continues to emerge, and he can hear reports of his rising approval ratings every now and then.

--afternoon

Li Jiayuan arranged to meet with Jiang Tiansheng of Red Star and Camel, two big brothers from East Star, at the Peninsula Hotel.

The Peninsula Hotel, Michelin-starred restaurant, private room 506.

"camel"

Jiang Tiansheng thought he had arrived early enough, but when he got there and opened the door, he was surprised to find that the Red Star Dragon Head Camel was also there. He was also curious about what Li Jiayuan wanted with them.

Li Jiayuan is no longer on the same level as them, so why would he still want to meet with them?
Today, the whole of Hong Kong Island is talking about him, he's on the news, and everyone is criticizing the Welfare Department.

Wow, that caused quite a stir. Those congressmen are really something. If they dared to do that, they'd be taken in for questioning by the police tomorrow under all sorts of pretexts.

But what about Li Jiayuan? As a district councilor, let alone arresting him, do you think the police from the neighboring police station would dare to come to his door and cause him trouble?

Given his position, if a local councilor can be punished simply for speaking out for the residents, then what's the point of having a local councilor? It would be better to have none at all.

Killing Li Jiayuan might not be a big deal, but killing a local councilor who dares to speak up for the people is a big problem.

Do those people on Hong Kong Island dare to stand up to this public outrage?
Jiang Tiansheng was still envious; he also longed to be a councilor!
After becoming a councilor, Li Jiayuan's identity changed directly from Jimmy to Li Jiayuan. This identity is like a get-out-of-jail-free card. When that year comes, Li Jiayuan and his home and property will definitely not be the target of the purge.

Because he wanted to become a legislator, Chiang Tin-sang paid close attention to political affairs, so he knew a great deal about politics.

People like Li Jiayuan are definitely people you have to win over and flatter.

I heard that the entire Yau Ma Tei area is full of his supporters. He has the support of the people in this developed area. Just for this reason alone, Li Jiayuan is someone they can't even dream of.

"Jiang Sheng, you've come too." Jiang Sheng is a respectful title for Jiang Tiansheng in the martial arts world.

Jiang Tiansheng sat down on the chair next to Camel. Camel was surprised to see him. Camel thought Li Jiayuan had only invited him, but he didn't expect Jiang Tiansheng to be there as well.

Camel believed he had no connection with Wo Luen Shing, nor any friction with them, and kept to himself. He was even more unfamiliar with Lee Ka Yuen, having only heard various rumors about him, but had never met him once.

This time, Li Jiayuan suddenly invited the leaders of their two major gangs, and it's unclear what he's planning to do.

Although the two were from opposing gangs, they were still friends in private. Their relationship wasn't as bloody as the lower-level gangs, and they could sit down and chat.

The agreed time was 8:30 pm. Camel and Jiang Tiansheng arrived early, while Li Jiayuan only entered the private room at the appointed time.

He certainly couldn't be late when facing the leaders of two top triads in Hong Kong; he had to give them that much face.

"Jiang Sheng"

"camel"

Li Jiayuan shook hands with Camel and Jiang Tiansheng respectively. This small handshake had great significance. Who shook hands first and who shook hands last had to be considered, otherwise it was easy to cause an accident.

He shook hands with Camel first and then with Chiang Tin-sang, not because Tung Sing was stronger than Hung Hing, but because this was the only way he could explain himself without offending either side.

"We've known each other for a long time, so let's not stand on ceremony."

Li Jiayuan patted Jiang Sheng's hand, expressing his respect for the camel without making Jiang Sheng feel slighted. He explained that the reason he didn't shake hands with Jiang Sheng first was because they were old acquaintances.

The three sat down, and Camel started the conversation.

"Councilor Lee is truly a handsome man; he looks nothing like the real person in the news."

"Hey, you're older than me. If you don't mind, just call me A-Yuan. Calling me Councilor Li is too much of an honor for me."

Camel happily raised his glass, his every word and action exuding a chivalrous spirit.

"Okay, then I'll take the liberty of calling you A-Yuan."

Jiang Tiansheng, watching the two getting more and more enthusiastic as they talked, thought to himself, "If you keep going like this, you might as well become sworn brothers."

"Ah Yuan, you came to see us this time?"

Jiang Tiansheng asked calmly

Li Jiayuan smiled.

"Actually, I came here today to discuss something with you, and also to give you a heads-up. My company plans to enter the education sector and has already invested in some direct funding schools, some of which are located within your company's territory."

I don't want my students to be influenced by gang members; I want them to focus on their studies. So, I want to speak with the two leaders and ask their underlings not to harass my students. That's all.

That's right, Li Jiayuan is planning to enter the education industry. The company is now in a stable situation. Last month, he summarized the overall profits. After deducting all operating funds, he still has 500 million yuan in spare cash.

Therefore, he plans to enter the education sector. He has already reached agreements with twenty carefully selected Direct Subsidy Scheme schools and has invested in them, five of which are wholly owned by him.

Now all that's left is for the two gangs to give their approval. Talking to those gang leaders won't work; we have to negotiate directly with the gang leader, otherwise it'll be too much trouble.

So he made an appointment with Camel and Jiang Tiansheng.

At this moment, when Camel and Jiang Tiansheng heard that Li Jiayuan was going to enter the education field, the two exchanged a tacit glance, their minds in turmoil, and they were astonished and uncertain.

No way? Dude, you're a gangster who went into education!
