Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 2914 Sir Derek's turn
"The meeting will be suspended for 10 minutes, Sir Derek, please come to the lounge and I would like to have a private chat with you."

After being shocked, Stephen Jol decided to ask Derrickford to have a good chat alone. He wanted to know what happened to this guy, why he suddenly withdrew the bill, and what happened in it was his own unknown.

And Derrickford seemed to have guessed that the other party would say this, he nodded immediately and then left the meeting room with Stephen Jol into the lounge next to him.

After closing the door, Stephen Jol asked directly before the other party sat down.

"Why do you want to withdraw the bill? Isn't it all done? As long as it works properly, it can be done in three months. If you withdraw it now and bring it up next time, it will take half a year at the fastest. You should know this?"

Stephen Jol really couldn't understand why Derrickford did this at this time, because doing so was a waste of time.

"I think this bill is not very good. Although it can target Lin Daoqiu, it is not a good thing for the future of Xiangjiang Films."

Derrickford's words made Stephen Jol seem to be looking at a psychopath looking at each other.

Xiangjiang will leave England in less than eight years, and this guy is still thinking about Xiangjiang's future. Is he crazy?Why didn't I know that Derekford had such great sentiments? Could it be that the Derekford I knew before was a dummy?
Seeing that Stephen Joel was really looking at him with a shocked expression, Derrickford himself felt very wronged, because today's actions were not his real thoughts, and what he just said was all Lin Daoqiu's meaning , he just does what the other party asks.

It’s just that Derrickford would not admit this in front of Stephen Jol. He could only make up an excuse for Xiangjiang’s future. Maybe guess what he really thinks.

"The future of Xiangjiang movies? You... Are you thinking too far, and Xiangjiang will return soon. At this time, it is a bit redundant for you to think about those things. I think it is better to get this bill done as soon as possible. As for The future of Xiangjiang Films is naturally in the hands of someone we can trust."

It is already obvious who Stephen Joll can trust. Naturally, Lin Daoqiu is not and cannot be. Originally, Stephen Johl thought that he still had the possibility of cooperating with Lin Daoqiu or becoming a good friend, but that day Lin Daoqiu The attitude towards himself has blocked this road, and as a punishment for Lin Daoqiu for not taking himself seriously, Stephen Jol must give him a severe lesson.

"Well, I admit that what I said is nonsense, but have you ever thought about the consequences of doing so?"

"Consequences? What are the consequences? Can Lin Daoqiu do anything to us? We are officials in the English House of Lords. What can he, a movie tycoon, do to us? I don't think there will be any bad consequences for us. .”

Stephen Jol looked as if he didn't take Lin Daoqiu seriously. In his opinion, even if Yingjili was weakened, they were not a film businessman who could handle them casually, only how they wanted to handle each other. Just make it right.

"Lin Daoqiu has established a "Reader's Times" in North America. Although the business in England has not yet expanded, but if you think about it carefully, the world's most powerful film and television tycoon plus media tycoon, you have offended him to death now, when the time comes I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to escape his revenge, so I think it's better not to have trouble with him."

If Derrickford had told him this before Lin Daoqiu met Stephen Jol, Stephen Jol might have thought about it rationally, but now he doesn't care so much, even if Stephen Jol thinks that Derry What Keford said made sense, but he still wanted to trouble Lin Daoqiu.

"I'm not afraid of these things. I've always done things with a fair heart, and I've never violated rules or discipline. Because of this, I'm not worried about what Lin Daoqiu can do to me. On the contrary, Derek, I think you're so worried about these things. Didn't Lin Daoqiu already caught him?"

Stephen Jol's guess is correct at all. It was because Lin Daoqiu caught Derrickford that he suddenly made a 180-degree change. Otherwise, he would definitely still be with Stephen Jol now. Standing on the same front.

"Do you suspect that I have done something illegal? Stephen, let me tell you, I am more honest than you. Your guess is completely without evidence and nonsense. It seems that we have nothing to talk about. You have to push this Bill then you keep pushing, but I will withdraw my support, and I will oppose the bill."

"What did you say? You... you're going to oppose this bill?"

If Derrickford wanted to withdraw this bill before, it was enough to shock Stephen Jol, now he not only wants to withdraw his support, but also stands up to oppose this bill, which makes Stephen Jol stunned. After a while, he also immediately realized that Derekford must have been pinched by Lin Daoqiu, otherwise he would never have changed his mind so quickly.

"What happened? If there is something that needs my help, I will try my best to help you. Is there any reason you have fallen into Lin Daoqiu's hands?"

He almost burst into tears when Stephen Jol asked Derrickford, but it was a pity that he knew very well that Stephen Jol was useless even if he was willing to help, because he had nothing to do with Lin Daoqiu at all, so for Derrickford could only pretend that he didn't hear Stephen Jol's concern.

"I've already said that I'm more honest than you, so I can't and won't fall into other people's hands. What I said and what I did was out of public interest. If there is nothing to ask, then we are now Just go back to the meeting."

Derrickford is no longer interested and does not want to chat with Stephen Jol, because he has already figured out the attitude of the other party. If this is the case, he can only do what Lin Daoqiu said, and become the opposite of Stephen Jol, at least that If he does, he still hopes to get back his handle, but if he doesn't follow Lin Daoqiu's words, he will soon become the front page of "The Sun".
