497 [Desire of Power]

9 o'clock in the morning in Hong Kong—

Bi Wenfeng called Song Zhichao and faxed the revised draft of his contract, and then explained in detail the revised treaties on the phone. What is the specific meaning.

In the end, Bi Wenfeng did not break his promise and told Song Zhichao all the contributions Sun Dajie deserved.

Through Bi Wenfeng's introduction, Song Zhichao learned that this Hong Kong lawyer named "Sun Changlin" is good at European and American business.

Bi Wenfeng thought Song Zhichao would consider it and see if he needed this old Sun. Unexpectedly, Song Zhichao said to him, "As long as you are a talent, you can introduce it, in fact, there are too few lawyers around me now. You can do it. At least one or two people will be enough for me and form a huge team of lawyers. If you decide on the annual salary, you should give them as much as you should... If you are a relatively good person among your peers, you can also offer a higher price."

The reason why Song Zhichao said this was forced to do so. Now his career is getting bigger and bigger, and Bi Wenfeng alone cannot support it. Therefore, many times he has to hire some lawyers to help solve the problem.

Over time, Song Zhichao still felt that he had to have his own legal team, such as Li Chaoren's company, Huo's company, and slightly larger companies. In fact, they all had their own private teams. In addition to helping solve some legal problems, these people could also help provide advice, just like ancient military advisors and general staff.

Song Zhichao urgently needed such a "lawyer group" and "think tank", so he let Bi Wenfeng go and let him do it boldly and recruit people to poach people. The person in charge of this team is Bi Wenfeng.

Bi Wenfeng did not seem very excited on the phone, and his tone was still very calm, as if he had received a very ordinary order.

However, when Bi Wenfeng hung up the phone and picked up the tea cup to drink, he couldn't hold it in and the tea cup fell to the ground and broke into pieces.

His yellow-faced wife was shocked when she thought something had happened. Before she could ask, Bi Wenfeng had already hugged her and said to her: "Wife, I'm finally going to make a name for myself!"

Wife: "..." I don't understand what this means.

Become a success? Isn’t he already very powerful now? He is a famous royal lawyer in Hong Kong and a top-notch big shot. Isn’t this considered being a success?

How can women know that royal lawyers in Hong Kong are divided into different levels, and top-notch big names are divided into high and low.

Having said that, even if you are a top-notch person and follow a very dirty boss, you will not be in the market.

A lawyer like him really stands out in a large group and company, commanding the three armies, firmly sitting in the central army's account, and no one dares to refuse to obey the order!

Bi Wenfeng is also an ambitious person, but he hid it so well before - loving money and life is his disguise, and what he really likes is power!

Power is the man's spring YAO - he is no exception.

...

Lehua Bowling Alley, Kowloon, Hong Kong—

As the director of the Hong Kong Finance Department, the ghost Edward has been sitting in this position for several years. I heard that Hong Kong Governor Wei Yixin will step down soon, and Edward was anxious because he has always been on the same front as Wei Yixin. For many people, Edward is Wei Yixin's loyal lackey.

But now, the ghost Edward must distinguish his relationship with Wei Yixin - he is still young, and he is unwilling to step down after Wei Yixin steps down.

At this time, Edward regretted his mistake in taking the team. Now there is only one way to make up for this mistake, which is to completely surrender to the British Empire and express his loyalty to the incoming Governor Peng.

How to do it?

The first thing Edward thought of was to repair the Governor's Office.

The Governor's Office is also known as the "Concierge House".

During the British reign, except for the first three Hong Kong governors, the other 25 Hong Kong governors lived in the palace. Another main function of the Governor's Office was to receive VIPs. In the early days, they were all members of the royal family and important foreigners. It was not until the seventh Governor Kennedy took office that Chinese merchants were allowed to participate in the activities of the Governor's Office.

At first, there was only one main building built in the neoclassical architectural style. After completion, the Hong Kong governors had been adding and modifying the building. The largest addition project before the war was to expand the East Wing. At that time, due to the frequent activities, the Governor Desfu decided to add the East Wing. It took only three years from design to completion and was opened in 1891. The East Wing was mainly used as a social event venue, which is today's banquet hall. The area of ​​the East Wing is similar to the main building, connected by a covered staircase, with the upper floor being a banquet hall and the lower floor as a dining room. In the 1930s, the Governor Belu proposed to build a new Governor's Office on Majixian Gorge Road, but it was shelved due to economic problems and the outbreak of World War II.

After the war, the Governor General's Office continued to be used as the Governor's residence. Governor Yang Muqi moved back to the residence in 1946, demolished the Japanese installation and converted it into four bedrooms and bathrooms. The next Governor Greg Greyong inlaid the walls of the room, installed fireplaces, added terraces, installed independent air conditioners, etc., and added two stone lions at the entrance of the porch of the main building. Governor MacLehore carried out a large-scale renovation of the Governor General's Office, replacing the roof, installing central air conditioners for the first time in the banquet hall, and building a waist-shaped swimming pool in the garden; expanding the staff dormitory, and adding a housekeeper's dormitory with style matching the main building. However, starting from Governor Dai Linzhi, Yode and Wei Yixin followed only made a few changes to the design of the Governor General's Office. Now the entire Governor General's Office looks a bit "old", which is a good opportunity to flatter Edward, who wants to express his loyalty.

"Governor Hong Kong, I'll prepare your place to live!"

"Governor Hong Kong, this is where you will stay in the future!"

"Governor Hong Kong, in order to make you live comfortably, I have decorated it into a palace."

A series of rhetoric appeared in Edward's mind. At that time, Governor Peng and Gang would not look at him with admiration?

There is a saying in China that Edward can only shine his shoes on Governor Peng Gang to keep his seat this time.

However, it is not easy to repair the Governor's Office well, but to be precise, it is a very difficult thing to do. The reason is that financial aspects do not approve it.

It is ridiculous that Edward, as the Secretary for Finance of the Hong Kong and British Government, did not have the power to allocate funds to repair the Governor's Office, because the previous directors tacitly agreed with the Governor and would not allocate funds to repair the places where they live.

Edward was inevitably a little difficult to set aside.

Since he could not follow the government's financial route, Edward had to grab his brain and think of his other tricks. Soon he thought of a way to kill two birds with one stone, that is - raise funds!

Where is Hong Kong?

The back garden of the British Empire, a place of prosperity for the rich.

There are countless businessmen in Hong Kong who want to squeeze in and do business for the Hong Kong Governor and the government, want to get commendations from the Hong Kong Governor, want to get the title of Justice of the Peace, and want to get the Knight Medal.

These Chinese people are very good at engaging in the business. As long as they are given a chance, they will sting like flies smelling rotten eggs.

Edward needed to throw a rotten egg as bait and then attract a larger fly.

But what Edward didn't expect was that the egg was thrown out, and the big fly did not come, but an eagle came.

At this moment, Edward sat in the lounge chair and watched the young man throw the bowling ball handsomely, hitting the full score.

Such a beautiful blow not only made Edward amazed, but also made the female secretary brought by Edward cover his mouth and his eyes look charming.

"This is a very popular man among women." Edward glanced at the young man and said, "Maybe without the wealth of their Li family, this Li Zekai can also become a super tycoon who will take charge of Hong Kong in the future!"
