Chapter 173 I will teach you a lesson today!
"I want to make it clear to you that now it's not just me who doesn't support this. My department head and my elder brother all hope that Li Chaoren's Cheung Kong Industries will eventually get this project!"
"Do you want to go head-to-head with the entire Royal Hong Kong Island Police Force? Have you ever considered the consequences of doing so?"
James is certainly not a fool. To be exact, no one who can climb to this position is a fool.
If he didn't want to curry favor with his boss, why would he bother to confront Fei Chili?
"What am I afraid of?"
"I am dedicated to the public and consider issues from the perspective of Hong Kong Island citizens. Even if I am criticized by thousands of people, I will not change my original intention!"
"How much bribes did you receive from Li Chaoren that you can speak against your conscience!"
After a pause, Fei Chili continued, "To tell you the truth, I'm about to retire anyway. Let alone being the boss, even if the Governor of Hong Kong comes forward, I still won't give him face!"
"This matter is settled. If you have the guts, go and complain to me!"
"Voting begins now. Raise your hands if you choose Hutchison Construction."
As he spoke, Fei Chili raised his hand first, not giving James any chance to speak, and his supporters naturally followed suit.
Those who were originally neutral, after some whispering, slowly raised their hands and cast their votes in favor.
They couldn't afford to offend a chief superintendent of police who was about to retire, and no one knew what Fei Chili would do if they were really pushed to the limit.
Rather than facing an extremely unstable time bomb, it is better to vote for him, which will be better for everyone.
The only people left who did not raise their hands were those from James's faction.
As a result, with the addition of the neutral faction, Fei Chili gained an overwhelming advantage over the two sides that were originally evenly matched.
"The majority has to obey the minority. I hereby declare that Hutchison Construction has won the bid for the demolition of the Canton Road Police Quarters."
Fei Chili just went through the motions. After saying a few words, he stood up and left, not giving James any chance to turn the tables.
James had a dark face, snorted coldly, stood up, and left the meeting room.
Soon, Fei Chili came to the next meeting room with a serious expression and slow steps.
Everyone who was discussing heatedly suddenly fell silent, and returned to their seats obediently, sitting upright.
Some self-aware people have already set their sights on Lin Zehao and Li Chaoren.
They know that if we look at the overall strength, if Sun Hung Kai withdraws, the final winner should be between Hutchison Construction and Cheung Kong Holdings.
Seeing Fei Chili's not-so-good expression, Li Chaoren immediately understood and began to straighten the wrinkles of his clothes. The previous decadence and embarrassment were swept away, and his face was full of confidence, ready to welcome the fruits of victory at any time.
The people around saw Li Chaoren's actions, then turned to look at Lin Zehao who was extremely calm. After comparing the two, they immediately realized what was going on.
"It seems that the final winner this time should be Li Chaoren. I think he is about to celebrate."
"That should be it. It seems that Cheung Kong Holdings is more skilled, while Hutchison Construction is still too inexperienced."
"Of course, the older the ginger, the more powerful it is. I didn't expect that even though Li Chaoren has become a waste, he is still so powerful..."
Hearing this, Ruan Mei immediately said angrily: "It's not time to announce the results yet. Why do these people think that Li Chaoren will win?"
"Being old only means you have lived longer. It has nothing to do with your ability."
Lin Zehao just smiled and said, "There are mostly people like this in this world. They just follow what others say. Don't take it to heart."
When Li Chaoren heard the word "swill", he seemed to have a stress reaction. He turned his head and began to look for the source of the sound. His face was extremely ugly, his consciousness began to be hazy, and he even felt nauseous. The last sewage incident had left him with a serious psychological trauma, and he needed to see a psychologist regularly.
At this time, Fei Chili finally walked to his seat, looked around, and said, "Silence!"
"After discussion by the committee, it has been decided that the demolition project of the Canton Road Police Quarters will be undertaken by Hutchison Construction."
The next second, Li Chaoren, who was a little dazed, stood up subconsciously, bowed to the people around him and said: "Thank you all for your kindness. First of all, I want to thank CK Industries for winning this bid..."
In an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on Li Chaoren, with mockery written all over their faces.
Some people even laughed out loud.
"It's Li the Swill. He's still trying to attract attention at this time. He really doesn't know what he's talking about."
"That's right. I knew long ago that the final winner would definitely be Hutchison Construction. His reputation is already so bad, why would the police force choose him?"
"Heh, it seems that this blow to Li Chaoren is quite big, otherwise why would he look so crazy..."
Looking at the expressions of the crowd, Ruan Mei finally couldn't help but stood up and scolded, "You guys really have no bottom line in helping others. Just now you clearly said that Li Chaoren would win, but now you say the opposite without any violation, and pretend to be as predictable as a god..."
"You guys really have no bottom line, and no brains!"
"Brother Hao is so magnanimous that he doesn't argue with you, but as a secretary, I can't stand it!"
Hearing Ruan Mei's words, everyone was stunned at first, their faces looked very ugly, and they subconsciously wanted to refute, but they saw A Mai and Luo Tianhong behind Lin Zehao.
Especially Luo Tianhong's warning look, which made them finally give up the idea of fighting back, and they just lowered their heads and acted like ostriches.
This time, Lin Zehao just smiled and said nothing.
Just as Li Chaoren was mumbling the speech he had written in advance, his secretary saw him and hurried forward, saying in a low voice, "Boss, there is a mistake. The successful bidder is Hutchison Construction, not us."
But Li Chaoren seemed to be possessed by a demon and continued talking to himself.
In desperation, the secretary could only press Li Chaoren's palm with his thumb and index finger, pressing down with all his strength.
He heard from a friend that pressing this acupoint can stimulate the brain and make people wake up immediately.
In an instant, Li Chaoren's stomach began to cramp wildly. He bent over subconsciously and vomited with a "wow".
Now, the person sitting in the row in front of Li Chaoren was directly covered by the sewage. Undigested small beef balls mixed with a sticky liquid like rice porridge, and even scattered sweet potato cakes, were all poured on him without reservation.
In an instant, the people in the front row were soaked like drowned rats, and their bodies were emitting an indescribable sour and foul smell.
Such a sudden scene made everyone present open their mouths wide, with shock written all over their faces.
Even Fei Chili stood up subconsciously, wanting to see more clearly.
Seeing this, the secretary quickly put down Li Chaoren's hand and muttered to himself: "No, this shouldn't be the case. Didn't my friend say that this stimulates the brain? Why did it become a vomiting drug..."
The other person also had a bad temper. He resisted the urge to vomit, turned over his seat, and came in front of Li Chaoren.
Then, he grabbed Li Chaoren by the collar and shouted angrily, "F**k off!"
"Ganshui Li, I'm going to teach you a lesson today!"
As he spoke, he clenched his right fist and smashed it hard on Li Chaoren's face!
