Hong Kong Film: Jimmy? Please call me Councillor Li

Chapter 213 Are you even giving people a way to live?

Wong Tai Sin, Public Housing Estates

In some unseen corners of the bustling Hong Kong Island, tragedies are unfolding one after another.

Fang's
Sister Ling found Fang Zhanbo, who had been wandering outside, but after returning home, Fang Zhanbo was still like a lump of mud, not saying a word, and just lying on the simple bed in the living room to sleep every day.

Knowing that Fang Zhanbo had lost hope in life, Sister Ling did not blame him. She now had only one wish: that Fang Zhanbo would stay at home and not become a homeless person and cause trouble.

As for what the future holds, we'll see how things unfold.

Sister Ling is undoubtedly a great parent. She fell in love with Fang Zhanbo's father and raised the four children of the Fang family by herself after his death. No matter how hard or difficult it was, she never gave up.

Sister Ling

This kind of perseverance is not something everyone can achieve.

In this world, there are all sorts of beasts who are unfilial to their parents and neglect their children. But a woman like Sister Ling, who sacrificed her own lifelong happiness to take care of her lover's orphan, deserves our respect.

She was only a few years older than Fang Zhanbo, yet she had to take on the responsibility of being a mother and caring for the four Fang sisters.

Especially when Fang Zhanbo was still a complete mess.

Fang Zhanbo

The Fang family, which had been relatively peaceful, was thrown into complete chaos by the arrival of one person.

Today, the old woman, who was worried about Fang Zhanbo, secretly came to the place where Sister Ling and the others lived to see Zhanbo.

The "cheap mother-in-law" is Ting Hai's mother, and Ting Hai is the one who beat Fong Chun-sun, who is also Fong Chin-bo's father and Ling Jie's boyfriend, to death.

Back then, Fang Zhanbo, who was just a child, witnessed Ding Hai beat his father to death. With such a relationship, how could he possibly talk and laugh with his mother, the murderer of his father?

The tragedy was brought up again in this small public housing unit. Fong Chin-bo angrily recounted the grudges between the two families, and Ling Jie and all the Fong sisters had their old wounds reopened, causing them to all cry.

The old woman, speechless, could no longer face the Fang family and left in despair.

(Those who are interested can watch the original film. It is very intense and the acting is superb. It starts at 27 minutes into episode 7 of the Greed of Man.)
After returning home, the old woman thought about what her son and grandson had done outside. Speechless in front of the Fang family, she felt angry and made a scene, insisting on moving back to the Buddhist temple to continue atoning for her son's sins.

Qiu Family Manor
Originally, Li Jiayuan said he was going to Qiu Degen's company to discuss the details of the pharmaceutical agency cooperation, but the old man changed his mind at the last minute and invited him to his home.

Wherever they could talk, that was where Li Jiayuan came.

Today, Li Jiayuan drove a Hummer. AM General launched the civilian version H1 based on HMMWV, which is the oldest Hummer model.

It was the latest Hummer, specifically the H1 four-door hardtop version, which emphasizes practicality. The servants of the Qiu family were stunned when such a behemoth was parked in front of the Qiu family's house.

This car is the latest model this year, or rather, the first batch of civilian Hummers. Li Jiayuan spent a lot of money to order it from abroad.

The top-of-the-line model costs 500,000 yuan, which is not expensive, but it is practical and stylish.

The servant led Li Jiayuan to the Qiu family's back garden. In the rest pavilion in the back garden, Qiu Degen, Qiu Yun, and Qiu Rongrong, the whole family of three, were there.

"coming"

Qiu Degen knew that Li Jiayuan liked to drink Longjing tea, so he had already brewed the tea.

Qiu Yun nodded to Li Jiayuan in greeting, while Qiu Rongrong looked outside, seemingly looking at something.

Li Jiayuan picked up the steaming teacup, took a small sip, and thought, "Not bad, not bad."

It would be even better if it were iced.

"Brother Yuan, didn't Gao Jin come with you?"

Li Jiayuan smiled, realizing that Gao Jin's true intentions were not what they seemed. It appeared that Gao Jin had made friends of similar age during his time as a bodyguard.

This guy always keeps to himself, or hangs out with rough guys like Feiji and Long Wu. How can a seventeen or eighteen-year-old not have a social circle of peers? That's good. "Gao Jin had other work today and didn't come."

In fact, Li Jiayuan gave Gao Jin a leave of absence. If nothing unexpected happens, Gao Jin will go to the company to work as an assistant for training.

After all, he still lacks a suitable assistant, and after this kidnapping, Qiu Degen hired a professional bodyguard team for his family to ensure their safety in all aspects.

Qiu Rongrong, who had previously been reluctant, now had no choice but to have bodyguards accompany her. She was also frightened, because she was lucky the first time, but the second time might not be so.

"Is Gao Jin really an employee of your company? Isn't he only seventeen years old? What could he possibly do?"

"He knows a lot of things. He learned all the knowledge of business administration in just seven months and is now my assistant."

In fact, Gao Jin learned more than Hua Di and the others because of his superior abilities, so Li Jiayuan arranged special courses for him.

With the help of various niu and ma cards, he learned very quickly and is already ready to graduate.

Qiu Rongrong expressed strong skepticism about this.

"What can he learn in seven months? Besides, he probably won't even be able to get a certificate."

"What's the point of a certificate? We learn to use what we learn, so what difference does it make whether we have a piece of paper or not?"

Qiu Rongrong was speechless and felt that what he said made a lot of sense. Qiu Degen looked at him with admiration. As expected of the founder of Jiayuan Logistics, he had made such a name for himself at such a young age. He was no ordinary person.

Most people can't say these words; people often only value the piece of paper and thus ignore the real core.

Qiu Degen said to his son:

"You should study hard, because the world will belong to you young people in the future. Now you know why I called you here today."

Qiu Degen wanted his son to get in touch with Li Jiayuan Gymnastics. He was getting old and would be handing over everything at home to Qiu Yun in the future, so it was not a bad thing for him to make connections in advance.

Knowing that Gao Jin hadn't come, Qiu Rongrong left with little interest, leaving only the three of them in the garden.

"There's no one else here. What do you want to talk to me about?"

Qiu Degen got straight to the point. If it were someone else, he would have used some preamble, but with Li Jiayuan, there was no need for such formalities. Li Jiayuan was even more direct.

"I want to enter the medical industry and I need a partner."

"Medical care?"

Qiu Degen's hand trembled slightly as he poured the tea, but he quickly regained his composure and looked into Li Jiayuan's eyes.

"Your company recently invested in and produced a TV series, signed many artists and established training classes, and you also invested in twenty schools, becoming their shareholders. You yourself are also a councilor for the Yau Ma Tei district."

You've done it all: business, politics, media, education—and now you want to get into healthcare.

Qiu Degen smiled helplessly.

"You really don't leave anyone else any way to survive."

In younger parlance, it roughly means, "Why are you so curly?"

Li Jiayuan didn't think so; in fact, for him, this was just the beginning.

Qiu Yun, standing to the side, listened to his father recount the story with great familiarity and felt a pang of sadness. He was a little older than Li Jiayuan, but his achievements were far inferior to his father's. He had relied on the resources of the Qiu family.

Li Jiayuan is a self-made man; there's no comparison between him and others.

"I'm not against you, but I feel that you're moving a bit too fast. Our Qiu family has made great achievements in the medical industry, and we are well aware of the difficulties of this industry. It's not as easy as you imagine."

Or, can you create a second Home Logistics?
