"This is a rule. Apart from those who are running for election, only elders with voting rights can enter today."
Jimmy shook his head and stood quietly in the middle of the crowd.
"Tch, Jimmy, what's the use of being so loyal to the plane? He doesn't even have the right to fight for your right to vote."
The stupid guy on the other side took the initiative to provoke him.
The other young and Dangerous boys around him immediately laughed when they heard this.
Because the candidates for the speaker's election are at odds with each other this time, the subordinates naturally dislike each other.
Now the final election confirmation is being prepared inside, and the younger brothers below are also standing clearly separated.
If someone who is not familiar with the situation looks over, they will never think that this is a member of a society. Instead, they will mistakenly think that several society bosses are negotiating above.
"If there were no planes, you would be lying in a stinky ditch now because of your stupidity. Don't pick up the bowl to eat. Now you are scolding me without even putting the bowl down."
Jimmy glanced at Shaqiang, and then spoke calmly.
Due to historical reasons, Dongxing currently has too few famous and powerful uncles.
Because I didn’t expect that there would be so many people running for election.
In order to look good and prevent one family from becoming the dominant one, the general election is treated as a child's play.
Therefore, we had to re-select some people from the current powerful newcomers and the relatively powerful older generation to have voting rights.
It stands to reason that Jimmy's strength is enough to have the right to vote.
But in the end he did not get the right to vote.
The reason is also very simple.
He always regards himself as the younger brother of the plane and has no independence from the dock.
So when I was choosing my voting rights, I was blocked by the remaining few people, saying that he was the younger brother of the airplane, and theoretically the voting rights should be the same as those of the airplane.
Moreover, he has long made it clear that he will support the plane's re-election.
If you really give him the right to vote, it will be like having two votes on the plane.
Because of this, in the end, although Jimmy was rich and powerful, he still stood outside the door.
But he was very open-minded about this.
Jimmy's original intention of joining the society was also to prevent his business from being affected by the society members.
Now his business has reached the mainland, where his sponsor has actually reminded him that there has always been zero tolerance for dynamic gangs like Hong Kong Island.
If his business wants to prosper in the long term, it is necessary to make a break with the society.
It is precisely because of this that Jimmy behaved very calmly when facing the Eastern Star election, and even actively stayed away from the periphery of the center of power.
"Everyone is here, Uncle Zhong, sit down!"
The plane was the last to appear. Seeing him come in, several uncles and elder brothers who were only responsible for voting quickly stood up.
"Dragon head!"
Several people smiled and said hello to the plane.
But his smile did not last long.
When he turned around and saw Dongguan Zai, Situ Haonan and Golden Retriever sitting at the table, with no intention of saying hello when he came in, his face immediately darkened.
So without saying a word, he directly pulled out his chair and sat across from the three of them.
In the past, he always sat in the main seat, and the others were only allowed to accompany him in the seats on either side.
Now, because the main seat is placed with a token passed down from Dongxing's former speaker, the plane can only be moved even though it is still the speaker.
Such a change of position means that he is now sitting in the same position as Dongguan Zai and the other three. Next, naturally, each will run for the speaker based on their abilities.
"Ahem, everyone is here, and the speaker election is about to begin. Fourth brother, I want you to be a witness."
When Uncle Zhong saw everyone gathered, the atmosphere was a little tense, so he quickly reminded everyone and started the walking process directly.
This time Dongxing held a speaker election and invited a respected elder from the community to be a witness.
The person whom Uncle Zhong calls fourth brother is a short, fat old man.
He looks similar to Dumbledore from Lian Sheng. In fact, the two are indeed of the same generation, and they are also brothers.
However, Deng Bo was unwilling to give up the power in his hands for a long time, but the fourth brother chose to abdicate early in order to make way for others.
The Huafu gang that was running rampant in Tsim Sha Tsui used to be with Fourth Brother, but because Fourth Brother took the initiative to give in, the other party hooked up with Dumbledore again.
"Thanks to everyone for being so considerate, today I have the honor to serve as a witness to participate in the election confirmation of your association."
The fourth brother has matured into a mature person. This election of Dongxing requires a respected senior for the sake of authority.
The development of Hong Kong society has not been smooth in the past few years. Today's younger generation generally does not respect martial ethics and is often merciless when meeting old guys.
As a result, when the old timers used it, they found that the quantity was pitifully small.
The fourth brother was also forced to put himself on the shelf this time, so he explained at the beginning that he was only a witness, and his intention was obviously to clear up the relationship.
After the scene was finished, the fourth brother picked up a box on the table.
"This is the souvenir of the speaker you prepared. In fact, it is not necessary now. The fundamental reason why we prepared the dragon-headed stick at the time was that the information dissemination was not developed at that time, and the speaker changed too frequently, so the subordinates could not remember the speaker.
, we can only rely on the dragon head stick to determine our identity."
Fourth brother is getting older, so some nagging is inevitable.
Dongxing has done a lot of homework for this speaker election.
In the past, Dongxing's speakers were basically tenured for life. The reason why most speakers stepped down was not because their term had expired, but because they died unexpectedly or were kicked out.
Under this system, there is naturally no need for a so-called token to prove the identity of the speaker.
Although it has now been replaced by a round of elections, with the current development of communications, it has become very simple to understand the speaker's information, and the use of tokens is obviously a bit unnecessary.
"After all, I still need a token."
Uncle Zhong smiled and interrupted the fourth brother's narration.
"Well, that's okay too!"
The fourth brother smiled and did not dwell too much on this matter.
"The original intention of establishing the club is for everyone to have something to eat and not be bullied by others. If you join the same club, you will eat together in the same pot. Everyone must value harmony!"
"Especially the speaker is the leader of a society. It is necessary to treat the members of the society equally and not betray the brothers. If someone does something detrimental to the society and brothers during the election stage, he will not only lose the election
You are not qualified, and you must accept the punishment of three swords and six holes!"
What follows is also a common practice. This kind of common practice often sounds nice in words, but is basically impossible to implement in practice.
After hearing what Fourth Brother said, everyone nodded in agreement, but naturally only they knew what they were thinking.
"Okay, this is the last meeting before the voting. Everyone decides whether you want to run for election. From today on, the electors and their uncles will no longer be in contact. If you want to run for election, you need to rely on your ability and compete fairly."
In fact, in this East Star election, the most fundamental reason why an outsider like Fourth Brother was invited to preside over the meeting was because this was the first speaker election in East Star, and it was messed up by several candidates.
For example, as soon as the voters were determined, several candidates couldn't wait to entertain everyone, and used coercion and inducement to win over everyone, forcing them to express their opinions on the spot.
As the candidates hosted a banquet for all their voting uncles, the situation became different.
Seeing that something was not right, Zhongbo and other older generations could only invite foreign aid with election experience to re-write some rules.
For example, the first rule is that candidates cannot have direct contact with the older generation who have voting rights.
Naturally, it is impossible to completely eliminate some possible insider trading between the two parties, but it can at least ensure that the conflicts between the two parties will not become too intense.
After all, many times, when the two sides stand together in person, sometimes they have to express their stance, but if there is no direct contact, there is a lot of room for maneuver.
Although this may seem useless, it is actually an extremely clever test of how candidates can get people to vote willingly.
If a candidate can make people vote willingly when they are not in contact with voters, then this is the candidate's ability.
"I don't have a choice!"
The fourth brother originally just asked a routine question, but who knew that the golden-haired tiger Sha Meng raised his hand procrastinatingly at this time.
"you sure?"
The fourth brother was also stunned for a moment. He probably had lived for so many years, and this was the first time he had encountered a candidate who would voluntarily withdraw from the speaker election at such a juncture.
The election of speaker is not a child's play. Don't look at what the fourth brother said just now: treat everyone equally and be fair and just.
But in fact, when these candidates come forward, they are already competing with each other.
At this juncture, even if one of the parties chooses to give in, the sky is not the limit.
Because for everyone who is running for the election, since the other party has the courage to participate in the first election, there is no guarantee that they will continue to choose in the future, so the best way is to nip the trouble in the bud.
It is difficult for competitors to make concessions to calm things down, and it is also difficult for the candidates' subordinates to accept it.
Under each candidate, there is a group of followers who support him.
For things like speaker election, not only the candidates themselves are working hard, but the people below also do a lot of things.
Many people are even looking forward to waiting for their boss to ascend to heaven, and they will follow him to heaven.
But now if the candidate says he will not choose, then all the expectations of the people below will naturally come to nothing.
A boss who cannot provide benefits to his subordinates will naturally find it difficult to gain support from those below him.
"I'm sure, I don't have a choice!"
Sha Meng nodded, and while speaking, he glanced at the plane.
"Before, I was fooled by lard. There are only two people who can speak for one term. If I am stupid, I can only choose. I might as well get a voting right honestly. In this way, I can be considered an uncle. I vote every two years and still have to vote."
Isn’t it great to have money for it?”
When Sha Meng said this, he obviously wanted to beg the plane for mercy.
He originally had the confidence to stand up and stand for election, and naturally he got the nod of support from some of his uncles.
But who knows, those uncles who promised to support him at the beginning were all bribed by the plane, and now they don't even want to see him.
Sha Meng actually knew that in terms of strength, he was not as good as Qi Qian and others, and in terms of wealth, he was also at the bottom among the four.
The only thing that can be used is his qualifications, but Situ Haonan is just like him, one of the five old tigers.
Originally, he participated in the election because he felt that his personal connections were stronger than those of Situ Haonan, and since everyone was old, his uncles would definitely support him.
It turns out that these people don't follow the rules.
It's just a spokesperson who is elected every two years, like Mingbu and Lian Sheng. Every time you choose a spokesperson, it's enough to spend 1.8 million.
But Sha Meng didn't expect that Dongxing's words would be so willing to give money to the people running for office.
He has no advantage in terms of money or power, so he can only lose his face and hope to escape unscathed.
But Sha Meng was disappointed. Neither the plane nor Dongguan Zai and the others paid any attention to his words.
In fact, among the four, Sha Meng is the one with the least chance. Even if he doesn't quit now, he will definitely be the one running with him.
So even if he quits now, no one will care.
But although no one thought it was impossible for Sha Meng to succeed in the election, this guy had no sense to stand up for the election before, and now he found that he had no advantage and wanted to bow his head. Naturally, no one would give him a good look.
Since he has exposed his ambitions, whether it is a plane or a Dongguan boy, it is naturally impossible to leave such a hidden danger beside him.
Who knows when this guy will stand up and stab himself in the back.
Instead of being on guard all the time, it's better to look for opportunities to step on the opponent.
"Brother Airplane, if you continue to come out and choose, I'm afraid it's not suitable."
The three of them ignored Sha Meng. At this moment, Situ Haonan took the initiative to speak out and aimed at the plane.
"Is there anything inappropriate? If it weren't for me, Dongxing would have been finished long ago."
Everyone was already at odds with each other over the position of the speaker, and now the plane was speaking rudely.
"Brother Airplane, everyone recognizes your contribution in recent years, but times have changed.
Now is no longer the era of family rule, even the queen has to give up power.
If you abdicate now and make way for others, everyone's faces will be bright.
And it’s still the same condition as before. No matter who is the boss, you will get 5% of the company’s profits.
In every election from now on, your one vote counts as two votes. You have the final say here with my uncles, and the new uncles need your nod!"
Situ Haonan took the lead, and Dongguan Zai did not hesitate.
In order for the aircraft to take the initiative to make concessions, Situ Haonan and others naturally did not do anything. On the contrary, they were willing to transfer some of their benefits.
"If you don't quit and still stand up for election, then what's the point of changing the leadership?"
At the end of the day, Dongguan Zai spread his hands.
"The general election of Dongxing is a change based on the times, but there are no rules. Just because I was the leader before, I can't stand out now. The election of the talker has always been for the capable.
I guess this is the purpose of elections."
Airplane knocked on the table, but was not intimidated by the opponent's righteousness.
Although the conditions offered by Dongguan Zai and others are good, it seems that even if he retreats, he can still have his say.
But of course this cannot be the case.
Even though Dongguan Zai and others seemed very generous, they directly gave out 10% of the society's profits.
But for things like profit, it doesn’t depend on how the accountant does the accounting. ()
