Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 2907 Abnormal House of Lords
"What are you talking about? The House of Lords is pushing forward the legislative work on Xiangjiang Films? I didn't expect Fang Yat-hua to have such a great ability, and he was able to win the support of those people in the House of Lords in such a short period of time. This is really unheard of. .”

Hearing the news from Yingjili, Fat Peng stood up from his chair in surprise.

You must know that the gentlemen in the House of Lords can be said to be surprisingly lazy at ordinary times, but wherever they are required to contribute, these gentlemen can avoid and hide as much as they can. It is of no benefit to them to actively promote a situation like this time. Bills, it's plain nonsense to really believe they came out of justice.

Although I don't know how much Fang Yihua spent, this is not something that Fei Peng needs to care about. Although he promised to give Lin Daoqiu half a year, if it is done by others, it has nothing to do with him. If this bill is implemented, Lin Daoqiu's strength in Xiangjiang will definitely be greatly affected. At that time, even if Lin Daoqiu has three heads and six arms, he will not be able to save his defeat.

Thinking of this fat peng's mouth, he couldn't help but start to lift up.

"Leeson..."

Picking up the phone, Fei Peng called Lisen into his office.

After Li Sen came in, Fei Peng hurriedly ordered.

"You go back to England immediately, and go there to learn more about the situation. I must get the first-hand information as soon as possible."

Fei Peng didn't intend to just sit and watch the show, he also planned to participate, after all, this was a godsend opportunity for him, if he missed it, he would really regret it.

After listening to Fat Peng's instructions, Li Sen nodded quickly and went back to pack his luggage and buy a plane ticket to fly back to London.

The meeting of the House of Lords generally takes a long time from discussion to legislation. It is obviously impossible to implement this bill in a short period of time. However, with the cooperation of Stephen Jol and Derickford , the time to promote this bill will be greatly shortened. After all, they all agreed, and it is naturally impossible for the people below to stand up to oppose it.

Under normal circumstances, the reason why bills are delayed is that most of them cannot agree on interests, and everyone pulls each other, so the time for legislation is increased.

Fang Yihua had already done the work, and it would take at least half a year before she could get a clue, but this time she only came to England for a month, and she did not expect to get the two Speakers of the House of Lords so quickly. She was overjoyed and hurriedly called Run Run Shaw who was far away in Xiangjiang to report the good news.

"So fast? I didn't expect the English to be so efficient. Are these the people I know?"

After receiving Fang Yat-hua's call, Run Run Shaw couldn't believe it after hearing what she said. After all, it's not been a year or two for him to deal with English people. It took a while, maybe even longer if I didn't think of other ways.

But I didn't expect that the gentlemen far away in London were persuaded in less than a month, which can be said to have greatly exceeded Shaw's expectations.

"Sir Derek was easily persuaded by me, but I don't know what happened to Sir Stephen's side. According to Sir Derek, he came forward to persuade the other party, but according to the information I got, The relationship between the two of them does not seem to be that good, and judging from the situation in the House of Lords, it is unlikely that Sir Derek would take the initiative to help me with this favor, so this is something that I find very puzzling."

Fang Yihua is not a fool, she has already started to understand the affairs of the House of Lords when she came here.

The British House of Lords is one of the two houses of the British Parliament. Members include royal descendants, hereditary nobles, lifelong nobles, judges of the Court of Appeal, and church archbishops and bishops.

In November 1999, the reform bill of the House of Lords was passed. Except for 11 people who remained in office, more than 92 hereditary nobles lost their qualifications as members of the House of Lords. Non-political appointed members of the House of Lords will be recommended by a special Royal Commission.

The archbishop and bishop of the church are "spiritual councilors", and the descendants of the royal family, hereditary nobles, life-long nobles, and judges of the court of appeal are "secular councilors". "Congress gentry" and ordinary positions are lifelong.

At this time, the House of Lords is still very bloated. It can be said that it is crowded with many noble members. Stephen Joll and Derickford are part of them. Impossible thing, no wonder this incident has caused a lot of topic in England.

"When did the gentlemen of the House of Lords become so efficient, and they even started to review a Xiangjiang bill? This is really strange."

"What's so strange about this? It is said that Sir Stephen and Sir Derek both received benefits from Xiangjiang. Otherwise, would they be so active? If they really had such free time, they would have gone on vacation long ago. It is absolutely impossible Time and energy will be spent on this.”

"Is it true what you say? If it is, it would be a terrible scandal."

What Stephen Jol and Derekford never expected was that this time they took the initiative to solve Fang Yihua's problems, and wanted to make a law to deal with Lin Daoqiu, but their behavior was really strange, which was very different from their usual actions Therefore, many people have begun to discuss how much benefits Stephen Joel and Derrickford received before they took the initiative to do these things.

Originally, these rumors were only circulated by a small number of people, but gradually, English newspapers also began to suspect this matter.

"The Hardworking Lords, The Wake-up Speakers are such bastards, what are they writing about."

The next morning, when he opened the newspaper as usual, Stephen Joel was extremely angry when he saw the headlines in the newspaper, because it described vividly and vividly that their bill to help Fang Yihuali this time was because of the acceptance of Her benefits are why she is so active.

"Sir, besides these, it is said that there are quite a few media outlets who are planning to do special reports, and the TV station also called to ask if you can be interviewed on TV."

Stephen Joel looked at his secretary in surprise. He never expected that this matter would escalate so quickly. He originally thought that he would not attract too many people's attention when he did these things, but he obviously put this time Things are too simple to think.
