Hong Kong Film: Jimmy? Please call me Councillor Li

Chapter 309 Kowloon Ice Room
"Fang Guo, you've come at the right time. Take a look at this list. These are the names of the most likely candidates to be elected in this legislative election, based on my research."

"Go back and see if you can contact these people and try to win them over. Think of a way."

Chen Jia'an has been extremely busy with the election these past few days. Although they are members of the election committee, once those candidates become members of parliament...

Those on the election committee no longer have the means to control them, as district councilors are under the jurisdiction of the district council.

As for legislators, they fall under the jurisdiction of the Legislative Council, so generally speaking, they have nothing to do with them.

Meanwhile, Chen Jia'an, following orders from his faction, tried his best to win over these emerging forces, while attempting to suppress those with different stances.

For those who haven't taken sides yet, try to win them over.

This year's election has attracted significantly more voters than last year, making the process of organizing the results exceptionally difficult.

"What's wrong? Why do you look like that?"

Chen Jia'an noticed that Zhao Fangguo's expression was a bit off, so he put down the documents in his hand and asked:

Zhao Fangguo didn't dare to speak directly, but instead placed the list in his hand on the table with a hesitant air.

"You should take a look at this first."

Chen Jia'an took a tactical sip of water and slowly picked up a piece of white paper.

"This is the list of candidates who have been nominated this time. Let me see."

As he continued down the path, when he saw the three familiar names of Li Jiayuan appear on the list, Chen Jia'an couldn't help but spit out the tea in his mouth.

Anger and shock mingled in my heart, and my lips trembled.

"Why is Li Jiayuan still a candidate? Who was so bold as to re-nominate him?!"

Two days ago, Zhao Fangguo went to Li Jiayuan again to try to win him over, but this time he almost got beaten up. After learning about Li Jiayuan's attitude, Chen Jiaan gave up on trying to win him over.

They were planning to block him from participating in the election, but only two days later, Li Jiayuan's name appeared on the list without anyone noticing!
You have to understand that nominations are something that one or two people can't do alone; someone has to help make connections and get signatures. It's no small matter.

There must be someone below who outwardly complies but inwardly defies him, doing things for Li Jiayuan against his wishes.

Zhao Fangguo was like a walnut stuck in the middle; he knew who had nominated Li Jiayuan, but what good would it do to say it?

"It was Hunter who helped Li Jiayuan and the others put the list up."

"Hunter!"

Chen Jia'an was dumbfounded. Li Jiayuan had actually gone after Hunter. Damn it, what on earth was Hunter up to? Such a big thing and he didn't even inform us.

His plans were completely disrupted. It turned out that Li Jiayuan had connections with the foreigners. This time, he was in big trouble.

By doing this to Li Jiayuan, they might push him towards their rivals, given Li Jiayuan's immense influence in the business world.

Chen Jia'an broke out in a cold sweat. If Li Jiayuan were to cooperate with the enemy, he would be held responsible.

Once Li Jiayuan is out of their control, he is a behemoth. In his presence, they are nothing but small fry.

"Quickly, Zhao Fangguo, go to Jiayuan Group and deliver gifts to Li Jiayuan to apologize."

Just then, Chen Jia'an's phone rang; it was his wife calling.

"Hey"

"What did you say? My son got expelled from school, and the client broke the contract and doesn't want the goods anymore? We can't even find him."

With so many blows coming at once, Chen Jia'an's old heart couldn't withstand it, and he fainted.

Zhao Fangguo panicked.

"Help! Help!"

He tried to carry the person out, but his clothes got caught on the clothes hanger, causing him to fall hard and hit his head on the corner of the table, instantly drawing blood. He grimaced in pain.

He finally managed to carry the person out despite the pain, but then he accidentally stepped on a ballpoint pen that had fallen to the ground, and kicked it again. Unfortunately for him, it was Chen Jia'an, an old man, who was being dragged along.

He even fell directly to the ground, suffering a secondary injury—utterly unlucky. —Homestead Group

Li Jiayuan was in a great mood.

Those scumbags on the election committee, you don't think this matter will just end so easily, do you?

Previously, the list hadn't been released yet, and things were uncertain. Now that he's a candidate, we'll have to settle accounts with you all later.

If he hadn't wanted to completely break ties with Zhao Fangguo and his faction, he would have sent a few troublemakers to jail long ago.

They dared to tamper with his election; this is intolerable.

Indeed, he couldn't do anything about these people in other areas.

But surely someone in the family must be running some kind of business, otherwise how much money could they possibly make just from their fixed salaries?

The business world is my domain. If I don't bankrupt you, I'm being merciful.

That Chen Jia'an guy, his family owns a factory. How convenient! He'll use a clever scheme to make them lose a lot of money. Anyway, he has plenty of money. He'll play along with these people until the very end.

First, set a small goal, make them miserable, and vent your anger.

Kowloon Ice Room

"Brother Long, you're back this time."

"I've decided to quit this job and find a proper one."

"Okay, okay, whatever you do, I will support you. You can work here for me for now."

Nine-Dragon looked at his former good brother and suddenly burst out laughing.

Ah Kang and the other man just stood there grinning like idiots, not knowing what they were laughing about.

Those irretrievable past moments, those youthful years of memories, have now become the best testament to our friendship.

"Kang, thank you."

Nine-Dragon's eyes reddened slightly, and he felt fortunate to still have friends like Ah Kang.

Actually, Ah Kang was his underling back then. They were both very naive when they were out collecting protection money and almost got killed.

Ah Kang was so terrified after being chased and attacked that he left the underworld and opened Kowloon Cafe.

Back then, he protected Ah Kang, preventing anyone from collecting protection money and keeping everyone from causing trouble. This is also the origin of their friendship.

Later, her grandfather sent her to kill someone in the gang. Afterwards, she was betrayed by the gang leader and spent eight years in Chiang Mai, Thailand. Eight years, a full eight years.

He couldn't even see his father one last time. Inside, he saw and thought too much, and finally realized how foolish he had been.

I finally understood what my father meant when he said, "You can't carry this burden."

So now that he's back in Hong Kong, he just wants to live a peaceful and quiet life, away from all the strife, and he'll never get involved in the affairs of the underworld again.

Just then, a guest entered, and Nine-Dragon stepped aside to make way for him.

The person walking at the front was a cold-hearted young man.

Several others followed behind, shouting.

"Brother Yuan, who do you think you should let run for election this time?"
