Chapter 501: Qingfeng Street Bloodbath

Chapter 501: Qingfeng Street Bloodbath

Yin Zhaotang put the letter in his arms, regained his spirit, and said with great ambition: "Ten years will ensure a hundred years of peace. President Qian, rest assured, it's about education reform."

"I will do it to the end."

Qian Qichen nodded slowly, and was also moved by the loyalty of the people in the underworld. He promised: "One day when the reform proposal is passed, the country will not forget your contribution."

Originally, Yin Zhaotang's social status meant that he could enter the committee, but the senior leader showed his attitude that if the department could complete the reform, he would have the opportunity to be elected as the deputy director of the preparatory group.

If the members of the preparatory group are just representatives, then the deputy director is a position. Historically, deputy directors from Hong Kong have always been given leadership positions.

Although it was just an honorary position, they enjoyed leadership treatment when they returned to China, and were draped with the national flag and given a state funeral when they died. For example, Huo Guantai was promoted to the leadership as deputy director of the preparatory group.

However, there is no practice of "promising to appoint officials" in domestic affairs. Make your position of support clear, and the rest depends on your awareness and character, and let time prove it.

Yin Zhaotang had been dealing with the mainland for many years, so how could he not understand from Qian Qichen's words? After Qian Qichen said goodbye and left, he took out the letter and was lost in thought for a long time. Finally, he sighed: "For the first time, I did not fight for anything, but did what I wanted to do. I actually got an opportunity that I could not get even if I fought hard for it."

"I have finally achieved something in my life."

Although the family business in Hong Kong and the brothers in the society are wealth that ordinary people can hardly desire, it is difficult to have a good conscience with wealth. When you really win luxury cars, famous watches, glory and wealth, you will want to seek the meaning of life.

For some people, the meaning of life is to build a big society, while for others, they only seek to gain both money and beauty. When the goals are achieved one by one, when they are qualified to sit in the hall and speak, the meaning of his life is to clean up Hong Kong Island and kill the insects and cockroaches!

The Preparatory Committee does not hold special meetings. The regular practice is to fly to BJ once a month to hold a meeting. Temporary work can be communicated by phone or fax.

The next day.

Yin Zhaotang flew back to Kowloon and continued to work. Policy reforms at the highest level cannot be achieved overnight. They must be constantly balanced, verified, and consensus sought.

It is extremely difficult. If we want to change the committee members' positions, it will take years, relying on one meeting after another and repeated efforts.

However, with the encouragement of the designer, he became more motivated and thought about the plan for several days in a row. At least a feasible route should be set to have a direction for doing things.

Finally, Yin Zhaotang found the answer in the author of the poem, making more friends and fewer enemies. He worked tirelessly in the committee to seek support, and at the same time, he used the information advantage of his previous life to get in touch with the members of the formal preparatory group in advance.

As long as there is more than half support in the preparatory group before the preparatory group is officially established, the education reform can be passed.

Of the 150 people on the official preparatory group list, 76 votes are required. Among them, there are still 130 members who have not yet been elected. It is unrealistic to ask Yin Zhaotang to recite the list of 150 people, but if the list is expanded to the maximum, there will be at most 500 candidates.

Send people to carefully sort out the backgrounds and positions, combine the risks, and use mainland information sources to verify, and you can make a rough guess as to who will be selected.

Then communicate with the alternative candidates, support them, go up, and don't support them, go down, and you can make the reform successful.

In fact, each member of the list is a giant in their respective fields. There is no need to think about turning more than half of the people into their own people, so that they can call the shots and do everything in policy making. The reason why the country uses the preparatory group to replace the transitional government is that it does not want the genes of the "British Hong Kong government" to continue to the SAR government.

However, using support for one policy as a condition in exchange for Yin Zhaotang's support for the committee members on other policies is a common political tactic.

In a certain democratic system, "independent seats" with only one vote are often used as pawns. Only in very special circumstances can they become the deciding factor.

If there are more than two votes, they are called "group votes", and they often rise and fall together. No matter big or small, everyone with political demands will compete to win over various groups.

If the group votes are further expanded and have the power to influence the situation in an instant, they will become the legendary "gangs" and "independent hilltops".

Huo Sheng has the support of the most people in the business community, and is a very obvious "group". Strictly speaking, Yin Zhaotang is considered a member of the "Huo family". In the future big list, Huo Sheng also controls a large group, so he can appoint "Brother Hua" as the person in charge.

Barrister Rodson is an "independent seat" who rushes in, shouts loudly, and loves to stir up trouble, but in fact has no great influence. Yin Zhaotang has only formed an alliance with Liao Sheng, and they are considered a "duo" under the "Huo Jia Shan", a very, very small group.

If we can nominate Liao Zhihong, Liang Chaoying and Hu Bochao to be included in the committee's expanded list, we will have four votes. Then we can win over Shao Yi, Yu Shaoze and others.

If he could form a "group of ten", it would be very convenient to trade interests. Then, he would oppose all those who opposed him, and he could make those who opposed him stop opposing him.

"Focus on the goal and do it to the end!"

Yin Zhaotang secretly made up his mind to build momentum for Liao Zhihong, Liang Chaoying and Hu Bochao. 90 years ago, when the list was first expanded, he pushed the three people in. Before 97, he would push as many as possible to achieve his political demands.

Just ten days after returning to Hong Kong from the first meeting in the capital, China and Britain signed the legally binding "Joint Declaration", and the return was settled.

At the same time, the list of 20 members of the committee has been quietly circulated among high-level officials in Hong Kong Island. The political and business circles call them the "20 representatives", and the newspapers say that 200,000 people elect one.

In the underworld, Yin Zhaotang became the number one among the 800,000 Hongmen brothers, and was already somewhat of a godfather in the Hong Kong underworld.

However, less than a week after the signing of the "Joint Statement", agents from the Taiwan Bamboo Union gang dared to throw a homemade bomb at Chaoyi Restaurant.

The violent explosion killed three brothers of the Xingtang, and injured four people including Miao Zhengxiang, the leader of Xuanwu Mountain, Gao Laosen, Jin Yaxiong, and Da Zhi. It also caused Yin Zhaotang to lose face and lose his prestige.

That night, the acting leader of the Bamboo Union, Feng Zaizheng, publicly announced that he was responsible for the incident. The leader of the "Daodeshan" branch of the Hongmen General Association of Taiwan Province, Xu Songshan, publicly condemned the "Xuanwushan" Zhongyi Hall for slaughtering compatriots and killing brothers of the Bamboo Union.

For a time, newspapers in Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan were filled with headlines such as "Internal strife among Hongmen in Hong Kong and Taiwan, blood splattered on Qingfeng Street by the Bamboo Union". The incident caused a stir in the three places, and Hongmen all over the world knew about it!

As soon as Yin Zhaotang received the news of the accident in Tuodi, he immediately rushed to the hospital by car and asked his brothers in the company to guard the ward, cheer up and get ready to work.
