Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

It would not be a good thing for Stephen Jol if the negotiation failed or the negotiation broke down. Originally, he thought it would not be too difficult to handle Lin Daoqiu with his own status and status, but now it seems that the other party has no intention at all. To save face, or to say that he couldn't suppress Lin Daoqiu, this made it difficult for Stephen Jol, who had always thought highly of himself, to accept it.

"Mr. Lin, I have expressed my kindness to you. This is my respect for you and my kindness. But if you think my kindness and respect can be spoiled casually, I'm afraid I will disappoint you." , and I am afraid that you must be responsible for any consequences arising from this."

Stephen Jol's remarks are almost threatening Lin Daoqiu. If he does not agree to his conditions, then Stephen Jol will use his status as the speaker of the House of Lords to create a lot of trouble for Lin Daoqiu, and He can also try his best to pass the Hong Kong Film Act that restricts Lin Daoqiu, even if he has to pay a certain price, but for Stephen Jol, if he makes those who despise him pay the price, it is not even if he suffers some losses unacceptable thing.

"I understand your good intentions. As for what you want to do, it has nothing to do with me. Please feel free, but I also have something to advise you..."

"I can do what you can do, it just depends on who can't bear it first. Of course, you can also bet on it. After all, you have half the chance of winning, and you may not necessarily lose. What I said is not true. Do you understand me?"

Lin Daoqiu looked at Stephen Joel and smiled, that arrogant look made Stephen Joel furious, but at this moment he had nothing to do with Lin Daoqiu.

"Mr. Lin, it seems that our conversation today should end without a problem..."

"This is indeed a very regrettable thing, but it is not my fault. If Sir Stephen still wants to drink tea in the future, I will accompany him at any time, but as for whether I can spare the time at that time, I have to say something else. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave first, and I wish you a pleasant afternoon."

The conversation between Lin Daoqiu and Stephen Joel was full of gunpowder from the very beginning, but fortunately, the two of them had a good self-cultivation and did not directly swear, but even so, they failed to reach any consensus in the end.

Looking at the back of Lin Daoqiu's departure, Stephen Joll's expression was very gloomy. A majestic speaker of the House of Lords was so despised by a film businessman in Xiangjiang. If the matter was spread, what would he do as the speaker? If the face continues to stay in the House of Lords, it is estimated that it will soon become the object of ridicule by those at No. 10 Downing Street.

"Well, since that's the case, I don't have anything to worry about. Let's wait and see."

After Lin Daoqiu left, Stephen Joel said harsh words, but he didn't just say harsh words. In Stephen Johl's opinion, if he can't even deal with a Xiangjiang person, then he is the speaker. If you continue to be present, you can go home early to take care of yourselves so as not to continue to be humiliated by others.

"Vice Speaker, I just heard some rumors."

Derrickford, who was working in his office, was dealing with official business, when his secretary opened the door and walked in from the outside.

Derrickford raised his head and glanced at the other party, then continued to process the documents in his hand.

"If I remember correctly, didn't you go to have lunch with those secretaries? Well, what's the gossip about those guys?"

Derrickford has no doubts about his secretary's ability to inquire about news, and the source of these gossips is very valuable, because behind those secretaries are a group of people with real power, and most of the time these secretaries will be there Know things for the first time that many people don't know.

"No, this rumor has something to do with the speaker."

"Is it related to the speaker? What's going on?"

After hearing what the secretary said, Derrickford immediately stopped writing.

"It is said that the speaker intends to forcefully promote the previously shelved Xiangjiang film bill, and for this purpose he also visited a lot of congressmen to gain their support. Although I don't know what he promised to those people, it is said that most of them agreed to vote in favor of the bill at its next scrutiny."

If Stephen Jol wants to pass that bill, he must be supported by a majority of the House of Lords, because Drickford is obviously already on the opposite side of him, so Stephen Jol can only persuade those who may Those who support him, so that the number of votes cast can exceed the statutory threshold.

"This is really a curious thing. Our speaker is so concerned about a Hong Kong film bill. If he can spend his energy on the official affairs of England, then I believe this country will definitely It's going to get better and better."

What Stephen Joel did was tantamount to avenging his personal revenge. Lin Daoqiu had no grievances with him, but he didn’t know why he targeted Lin Daoqiu in this way. At one point, Derickford even wondered if Stephen Joel had some kind of deal with Fang Yihua. Otherwise, why is he working so hard?
In order to pass this bill, he went to win over those people. Except for promises or exchanges, Derrickford really couldn’t think of any way for Stephen Joll to persuade those people to vote for him. As for relying on his Speaker’s Identity or one's own charm is simply nonsense, those congressmen have never paid attention to them, the speaker, so Derekford is sure that Stephen Joll must have come up with some conditions to exchange with those people, But the price is too high.

"Since the speaker has already moved, we can't be idle. You should pay more attention to the news in this area. I have to go out."

Derrickford naturally couldn't let Stephen Jol do this. Once this bill is really passed, he doesn't know how to face Lin Daoqiu at that time, and even the other party directly let the "Sun" "If you publish your own scandal, then you will ruin your future, so Derrickford knows very well that he should do something to stop Stephen Jol at this time, as long as Stephen Jol's efforts this time If he is blocked, his prestige in the House of Lords will be greatly reduced. I believe that if he wants to play tricks in the future, it is unlikely that anyone will be willing to support him.
