776 【Clan Association】

Hong Kong, December -

As the Spring Festival is approaching, as an international metropolis, although Hong Kong has a serious Western capitalization, it still maintains strong holiday customs on traditional festivals, such as dragon and lion dance, or visiting relatives and friends.

The most common thing in Hong Kong before the New Year is various "clan associations". For Hong Kong people with strong clan concepts, such an event must be held before the New Year to be considered complete.

Hong Kong people have a complex origin, with nearly half of the 7 million people coming from Cantonese-speaking areas. Cantonese-speaking Cantonese Cantonese people are the largest ethnic group in Hong Kong, followed by Hakka people, accounting for more than one-quarter of Hong Kong's population, and Chaoshan people rank third, accounting for about one-tenth of Hong Kong's population.

Therefore, the annual clan meeting is basically the best time for these three ethnic groups to show their power in Hong Kong.

What's more, this year happens to be the three-year election for president of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce. Therefore, in order to win over relatives and friends, these clan associations are even more lively.

Among the many clan associations, the Huo clan association is very famous, because the three presidents of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce were all the heads of their clan association - Huo Yingdong.

In the past few years since Huo Yingdong was in charge of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce in Hong Kong, as a local business celebrity in Hong Kong, he has basically had close ties with the mainland. Therefore, he seems very calm when dealing with the return of 1997, and to be precise, he has confidence in his heart.

On the contrary, those businessmen who like to hug the Hong Kong British government and the British godfather were all uneasy, afraid that they would be settled after returning.

Therefore, for the Huo clan association, Huo Yingdong's resignation as president this time has a huge impact. Who can lead the Chinese Chamber of Commerce to maintain its position as the Chamber of Commerce in its return has become the biggest problem.

Therefore, whether for the business or political circles, the holding of the Huo clan association is of great significance - it can give you a glimpse of the successor that Big Boss Huo likes.

...

On the day of the Huo clan association—

The Huo Clan Ancestral Hall located in the western suburbs of Shatin, Hong Kong.

The originally deserted Huo Clan Ancestral Hall seems particularly lively today.

A group of men in black dressed in black and sunglasses guarded the surroundings.

Anyone who is familiar with the Huo family's style knows that the boss Huo Yingdong has always scoffed at hiring bodyguards.

In his opinion, people are doing it, and God is watching. If you do too many evil things, even if you hire a thousand bodyguards, you cannot protect you. As long as you stand tall and have a clear conscience, you can walk across the world.

But today is different. In addition to Boss Huo, there are many members of the Huo family and guests invited to visit.

Therefore, during the safety period, Boss Huo still acquiesced to this airtight security measure.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the Huo clan members arrived one after another.

To be honest, the Huo family is not a big family in Hong Kong, and its branches are also very chaotic. Those who invest in Hong Kong from the mainland, local from Hong Kong, and even overseas. These messy Huo family members rely on different family treees because their interests are slowly combined together to form a big family.

As a big boss in the Huo family who is more famous in Hong Kong, Huo Yingdong became the leader of the clan association, commonly known as the "leading brother".

As an elder, Huo Yingdong led everyone to worship the ancestors in the ancestral hall, and then said a few words to the 70 or 80 tribe members and relatives.

At this time, someone walked over and whispered to him.

Boss Huo smiled and said, "Please invite him in."

The Huo clan knew that Boss Huo had something to talk about, so he went out consciously.

Soon, Li Wannian, who was nominated for the presidential candidate this time, walked in with his son Lin Jiahao, who is also the helmsman of the Lin family.

When he met Boss Huo, Lin Wannian and his son said hello first.

To be honest, although Lin Wannian is very famous in Hong Kong, he is still one level lower than Boss Huo. To be precise, Lin Wannian's level is similar to Boss Huo's three sons. However, this time, Boss Huo nominated the president without choosing his own family, but chose Lin Wannian, which made Lin Wannian very grateful.

Therefore, as soon as the clan meeting was held, Lin Wannian took the initiative to bring his son to greet him, which was also an opportunity to connect with each other.

After serving tea, Lin Wannian didn't talk anymore. He knew that Boss Huo was a more straightforward person and liked to be straightforward.

Lin Wannian told Boss Huo that he hoped to win this presidential election, but Fu Yunheng and Li Chaoren are both very strong opponents. It’s better to say that Fu Yunheng and he are in-laws, but that Li Chaoren is really powerful. He is now one of the best big bosses in the Hong Kong real estate industry. With his Chaoshan status, I’m afraid that many people will support him at that time.

After hearing Lin Wannian's words, Boss Huo didn't say anything, but picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Putting down the teacup, Boss Huo glanced at Lin Wannian with a look of anticipation and said, "I have lived for so long and understand something. There is nothing that cannot be done in this world, and nothing that is absolutely true."

Lin Wannian: "Mr. Huo, I don't understand what you mean."

Lin Jiahao said next to him: "Dad, I think Uncle Huo wants to tell you that although Li Chaoren is strong, we are not sure of victory. At least our Lin family has a good relationship with the mainland. Recently, you have donated several universities and several welfare homes in the mainland, and these are all achievements."

Lin Wannian glanced at his son and looked at Boss Huo, "After that being said, I'm still a little worried. After all, Superman is not an ordinary person. Superman is of course very sharp!"

Boss Huo smiled, "Come here to me to talk about these things, are you asking for help or looking for comfort?"

"None of them, I'm here to ask for advice."

Lin Jiahao said, "Dad, don't hide it anymore. Who is Uncle Huo? He will understand your intentions as soon as you come."

Lin Wannian blushed a little, shyly said to Boss Huo: "To be honest, I'm here to ask for your help. I'm sure to win this election!"

Boss Huo smiled, "I have done everything I can help. I nominate you as a candidate, but I have actually made a statement. What else do you want me?"

"This--" Lin Wannian couldn't speak.

"What you lack now is not my help. After all, I no longer serve as the president. I have limited influence. There is someone else who can help you." Boss Huo said slowly while holding the tea cover.

Lin Wannian was stunned, "Oh, who is it?"

Lin Jiahao was also surprised. Apart from Boss Huo, who could help his father participate in the election?

At this time, Boss Huo sniffed, put down the tea lid, and said to the door: "Okay, the Lin family's father and son have come, and you should come out too!"

As he finished speaking, a tall figure came out from outside. Before the person arrived, he laughed and said, "Mr. Lin, and Young Master Lin, I will not see you too much. Are you okay?"
