Chapter 185 People's Representative Yin Zhaotang
Hu Bochao held a cigar in his hand and threatened, "I know it all. Yin Sheng wants to test my ability. I'm afraid he will buy a junk stock."
"The Fu'an Building reconstruction project was approved by the Housing Department. There is nothing wrong with a renovation business. Even if I am not selected, I will cooperate with Mr. Yin."
"Sell the few bits of face I have at the Housing Department and earn a little pension."
Once the Housing Department approves the building reconstruction project, it will call out bids for a special construction company to be responsible for the construction, and then call out bids for a special decoration company to be responsible for the centralized procurement of lamps, doors and windows, etc.
Construction is definitely the biggest expense, and decoration is just a side job at best.
But when it comes to grabbing construction projects, Zhongyitang’s fist is not strong enough.
Big companies like Sun Kee, Haohaobang and Hutchison have always been eyeing the engineering business. They can get first-hand qualifications for some small projects, but some big projects have to be taken by politicians first.
Then he honestly gathered people and worked on the construction site, doing the hard labor.
"Councilor Hu is so straightforward!" Yin Zhaotang was somewhat optimistic about him.
Guo Zhengmin left the company and asked cautiously, "Councilman Hu, how much is the decoration business of a building worth?"
"If you do a good job, you can earn more than one million from the government and another two million from the citizens."
“By undertaking projects from the Housing Authority, you will gain word of mouth and build a brand. In addition, according to industry rules, only decoration companies that have obtained contracts from the Housing Authority can promote the project. Other companies can only accept orders from regular customers, and entering the site to hand out flyers is considered overstepping the line.” Hu Bochao is very insightful in the business field.
Guo Zhengmin rolled his eyes and was filled with envy: "Most of the money the owner spends on renovations will go into their pockets!"
"Yes." Hu Bochao nodded.
Guo Zhengmin sighed: "That really made Mr. Yin a big profit."
"If I'm not elected as a senator, my career will be over. It's worth using one project to buy more than 10,000 votes."
"Also, Shenxiantang was able to offer the Fu'an Building project. It seems that they not only checked my background, but also checked the market. The three days were really not wasted."
"He has someone who understands politics helping him, so it's a fair price." Hu Bochao got into the car and threw the car keys to him: "Amin, you drive."
"it is good."
Guo Zhengmin took the car keys and was very excited.
There are only three people in Hu Bochao's campaign committee, all of whom were Hu Bochao's former subordinates. Whoever can get more votes will be more valued by Hu Bochao.
Monetary rewards are secondary. Campaign committee members, due to the convenience of their work, have the opportunity to inherit the candidate's political legacy!
Therefore, the members of the Chief Executive's Election Committee are all senior political officials who have resigned to take the position. If the candidate is successfully elected, the committee members will be appointed in turn.
Professions like lawyers, doctors, professors, etc., don't even have experience as clerks.
If an amateur wants to enter politics, the lowest starting point is to bet on a candidate, follow the preparatory work, accumulate connections, and obtain resources.
Yin Zhaotang sent the guests away and pointed at the two boxes of Chivas Regal. He said casually, "Give each of you a bottle and take it home to drink."
"Royal horse urine, it smells really good!"
He took out a cigarette with his left hand, looked at it carefully and said, "Take it back and let Brother Hao try it."
"Don't pretend to be Ah Hao, it's all for you." Yin Zhaotang sneered, sipped his cigar, and said, "There has to be someone responsible for canvassing for votes."
"Dan Tart, you'll take care of it?"
Egg Tart agreed: "Okay, boss, I know all the neighbors well, it's easy to canvass for votes!"
"Don't be careless. Call the brothers and mobilize the family members in the building first. Then knock on the doors one by one and distribute food and oil, as well as leaflets." Yin Zhaotang gave instructions.
"No problem, Mr. Yin!" Dan Tart said seriously.
"Pretending."
"Hahaha." The three brothers laughed.
"Knock, knock, knock, dad, it's me, A Jin!" Chuojiao Jin clenched his fists and knocked wildly on the iron door of the unit.
Garden Building, Block B, 1203.
Father Jin slowly opened the door, smelling a little of alcohol, but looking quite fearful, he tiptoed and asked, "Ah Jin, what's the matter with coming home so suddenly?" "You picked that star, and asked Auntie to come to your house for service?"
Chuojiao Jin returned home and saw a middle-aged woman in her forties standing in the living room. She waved and said, "Pour me a glass of water."
The woman was wearing a long black lace dress, had a plump belly, and looked mature, and her underwear was exposed when she bent over.
"Ajin, water."
Chuo Jiao Jin gulped down half a cup and looked at his father with displeasure: "I give you one thousand yuan every month so that you can eat better, not so that you can call girls."
Father Jin, wearing flip-flops, opened the refrigerator, took out a cold beer, and said, "I ate very well."
Chuo Jiao Jin rolled his eyes and said, "You are great at kung fu, right, Auntie? Come into my room later."
"what?"
The aunt was stunned.
Chuo Jiao Jin took out a flyer from his pocket and slapped it on the table: "I'm just kidding, I came back for something serious. Dad, there will be district council elections next month, remember to go to the polling station and vote for Wu Bochao."
Father Jin didn't even look at the flyer, and said while drinking beer, "I know."
The people living in Garden Building are all estate dwellers who lead a lower-class life. They are busy making a living all day and all night and have never cared about politics.
Because they don't trust anyone, and don't think that electing a certain person as a district councilor can introduce policies that are beneficial to them. Therefore, with more than 10,000 people in Garden Building, the voter turnout is actually very low.
The scattered votes of two or three thousand were all for the small gifts and because I was entrusted by someone and couldn't afford to lose face.
Ding'an Street has a population of more than 50,000 and should have been a huge voting base, but due to political indifference and the lack of influential people, it has not been able to mobilize votes.
But now, Garden Building has produced a young and promising young talent who is keen on giving back to his fellow villagers and likes to do charity.
Whether the villagers are stupid or not, they will follow him!
King was sitting at home, helping grandma pick vegetables, and said, "Grandma, come and live in Kowloon with me. I'll hire a Filipino maid to take care of you."
"I have only known how to take care of people all my life. I am not used to being taken care of by others." Grandma shook her head slowly with happiness.
King sighed: "Okay, then remember to vote next month."
"Okay, I understand." Grandma said with a kind smile.
"Niu Qiang, is Councillor Hu the same as you?"
"Not really."
"Then why vote for someone with the surname Hu? Wouldn't it be better to vote directly for Yin Sheng?" Niu Qiang's father was puzzled.
His mother is quite open-minded.
"Vote for whoever I tell you to vote for. Anyway, Big Brother Tang won't treat Ah Qiang unfairly."
At the same time, Dantazi and his brothers went door to door every day to promote the school, distribute flyers, and give out gifts. Even if some people had never directly received benefits from Yin Sheng, they could not resist the five big characters of Yin Zhaotang Primary School on the rooftop of Building A.
Because, behind those five words, there are renovated school buildings, brand new desks and chairs, three large boxes of extracurricular books, and one loving egg every day.
Principal Zhai is a principled man, but it is undeniable that Mr. Yin is the true representative of public opinion in Garden Building.
Intellectuals cannot exchange interests with politicians, but the Garden Building cannot have only intellectuals, there must be someone who can fight for interests and dare to raise his arms and shout!
"Please vote for Councillor Hu and give Mr. Yin some face."
"Vote for Hu Bochao, support our own people!"
"Mr. Yin is one of us, so of course Mr. Hu wants us to talk."
"Support Mr. Yin, support Mr. Hu, thank you very much, thank you very much!"
Every night, there are thugs from the Garden Building who come out with dozens of blue lanterns to distribute leaflets. The publicity activities can be said to be vigorous and will definitely not escape the eyes of those who are interested.
