Chapter 402 The President Appears
"What should we do now? Where is the president? He hasn't come yet?" Chen Xi looked at the people standing in the auditorium and turned to look at Kong Xin.

"You can go up and practice bragging first. The president is in Huajing dealing with the address of the headquarters, so he will probably be late." Kong Xin crossed her arms and mocked him.

"Hello, Chen Xi."

"I don't feel that good, not even as good as me!"

"I don't know what's so special about you that you actually came to participate in the vice president election."

At this time, several men came over, looked Chen Xi up and down, and their words were full of unkindness.

"You are..." Chen Xi was speechless. He didn't even know these people.

When did I offend anyone?
"Didn't I remind you yesterday not to make things unpleasant with others?" Kong Xin leaned close to Chen Xi's ear and said.

"I've never seen these people before." Chen Xi felt so aggrieved.

"We have heard of your name, so we just came to see you and get to know you. My name is Zhou Li." Among the few people, a man who had just been silent stretched out his hand to Chen Xi.

"My name?" Chen Xi was stunned. He couldn't help but think of the battle to defend the Olympic flame. He was on the news and probably many people knew about it.

"I'm from Sydney, currently working at Blackmore, this is Zhu Ke, from Brisbane, working in a high-profile position at a technology company, this is..."

Most of these people are not students. They seem to have gone abroad earlier than him and are currently working.

Chen Xi winked at Kong Xin, asking if these people were hired by Shen Lang, but she shook her head.

"Oh, what's the matter?" Chen Xi scratched his head.

"What's your attitude? We are..."

"Okay, go over there and familiarize yourself with the situation. I see quite a few people are already rehearsing."

Zhou Li grabbed the man who was speaking and pointed to the distance.

"Oh, no, that's too much trouble."

"You'd better go down. I'm afraid you'll stutter when you go on stage."

"Haha, we all have speeches in college, why would I stutter?"

Although he was reluctant, Chen Xi still walked to the front of the stage as Kong Xin said.

"Hi everybody, I'm……"

"Thank you everyone."

Several men and women were rehearsing there, with a few fawning followers around them, which made Chen Xi find it a little funny.

He took Zhao Lingshan aside and started practicing.

"Why did the consulate arrange such a person? His temper is too bad." Zhao Lingshan glanced at Kong Xin in the distance.

"Oh, there's nothing I can do." Chen Xi shrugged.

Not long after, it was noon. After having a meal, the two came to the auditorium again. Now the place had been decorated and there were a lot of people.

"You came just in time. There are some changes at the last minute, and the election will be held earlier."

"Oh my god, what the hell is going on?"

At this time Kong Xin came over. Before Chen Xi could say anything, someone nearby shouted, probably because they had also received the news.

"What's going on? Why is it held ahead of schedule?"

"It is said that there are several celebrities present and they are in a hurry, so the president announced that the meeting will start early."

"Who is this? Such a big shot, a celebrity? Is the Prime Minister here?"

The three of them were standing there discussing, and many people in formal attire came into the auditorium one after another. At first glance, they looked like the wealthy people who often appeared in Hong Kong movies.

"What are these people doing here? They seem to be from Hong Kong and Macau."

"Most of them are also abroad and come to watch the election by invitation."

Kong Xin explained and pointed at a few young people in the distance.

Chen Xi seemed to have seen these people on the Internet, but he couldn't remember their identities for a moment. They should be the children of some big bosses.

"Those are the gambling king's son and daughter, and the older one is Li Kacheng's son..." Kong Xin explained one by one.

She has lived in Hong Kong for a long time and works for the relevant department, so naturally she knows these celebrities.

"The president is here." Someone shouted, and everyone's eyes shifted to see a group of people walking over.

There were too many people, and Chen Xi couldn't see who the president was.

"Hey, Brother Xi, you are here too!" At this time, someone patted Chen Xi's shoulder. When he turned around, he saw Zhang Yang.

"Why did you come from the United States?"

"Of course I came to cheer for my friend! I came out for a walk at the same time. Going to school every day is so suffocating. By the way, I just saw Brother Xi." Zhang Yang is talkative now, and he doesn't have the icy face and expressionless expression that appeared in the news when he grew up.

Chen Xi had watched his press conferences when he was the chairman of Inter Milan before, and he always found them funny, thinking they were all acted.

Many people think that he is a serious person, but in fact, just like Shui Shui, he is carefree in private.

When I think of Shui Shui, I wonder if they will be angry since he didn’t contact her and Chen Guandong when he came to Hong Kong…

The president in the distance was greeting the celebrities from Hong Kong and Macao, but those people had blank expressions and looked disdainful. However, the president seemed not to see it and still had a smile on his face.

These celebrities did not come for his sake; they were all invited by relevant departments, so they acted so coldly.

In their eyes, the president in front of them was just a poor guy who could not be compared with them.

"Hello everyone, I'm Linxi, welcome everyone here today..." After a while, the sound of a microphone was heard in the auditorium.

Chen Xi's eyes widened.

Is this guy the president?

"Oh my god, Brother Xi is the president." Zhang Yang was also surprised.

He had been paying more attention to Chen Xi and Lin Xi before, and had a vague feeling that they were both a little unusual.

Haha, it seems that this guy is quite ambitious. In the previous life, this organization deviated from its goal.

Chen Xi looked at Lin Xi on the stage and felt as if this guy was also looking at him.

The person on the stage raised the corner of his mouth with an intriguing smile.

After Linxi finished her speech, everyone began to applaud, and some reporters took out their cameras and started taking pictures, making it quite a grand occasion.

"Brother Xi, is this your girlfriend? She's so pretty. She must be the one from Sakura Country, right? Wow." Zhang Yang greeted Zhao Lingshan and made an expression that he thought was very handsome.

"You are the Sakura people! Your whole family is Sakura people." Zhao Lingshan said to Zhang Yang bluntly.

"Sister-in-law... your Chinese is so good..." Zhang Yang, feeling frustrated, could only make a joke to ease the awkwardness.

"Okay, let's find a seat." At this time Kong Xin began to urge everyone.

"Where do you know this little fool? He thinks I'm from Sakura Country." Zhao Lingshan took Chen Xi's arm and whispered in his ear.

"He's from Qinhuai, the son of Boss Su Ning. He's younger than us and quite interesting."

"Sister, what are you talking about?" Zhang Yang leaned over and scared the two of them.

"Little brother, I am a genuine Chinese. If you greet me in Sakura language again, I will castrate you." Zhao Lingshan swung her hand in the air, and Zhang Yang was so scared that he covered his crotch.

"Hehe, this is really interesting." Looking at Zhang Yang's exaggerated movements, Zhao Lingshan covered her mouth and laughed.

"Brother Xi, when will you take the stage?" After learning that Chen Xi was going to run for election, Zhang Yang was eager to know.

"Very far back in line."

"That's good. Generally speaking, the earlier you take the stage, the more disadvantage you will suffer."

"I didn't expect you to be so knowledgeable." Zhao Lingshan chuckled.

"That's right, this is how performances are graded in our school."

"Now please ask the Federation of Returned Overseas Chinese..."

"Hello everyone... The Young Returnees Association... It carries the deep affection and infinite expectations of every young returnee for the motherland...

First of all, I would like to talk about the mission of the Young Returnees Association. This is not just a simple group, but an important driving force for domestic economic construction, and a bridge and link for the motherland to absorb talents and resources...

Secondly, I firmly believe that the Young Returnees Association should be a positive and healthy organization. We should adopt an open and inclusive attitude, absorb outstanding young people from all corners of the world, and pay attention to economic development, social progress, and improvement of people's livelihood with a pragmatic attitude...

Here, I also hope that every young returnee can find their own position on this platform, give full play to their own advantages, and realize their own value... Thank you all!"

The Federation of Returned Overseas Chinese is the highest organization that manages overseas Chinese and returnees, so this kind of event is naturally hosted by them. Although these official words made everyone feel a little sleepy, they still listened patiently.

Because it was a live broadcast, people all over the world were watching, and everyone was trying hard to look energetic in front of the camera.

Soon it was time for the campaign speeches. The first to appear was the candidate for Secretary-General. The order in which they went on stage was random and had been decided in advance.

The first speaker was from the United States, Huo Ying, whom Chen Xi had seen on the list.

He seemed to have stayed in the United States for too long. He always uttered a few English words while speaking, and there were quite a few of them.

Chen Xi took out his mobile phone and opened the QQ group. The number of votes for the live broadcast was shown on it, which was the same as the number on the on-site counter.

Seeing that Huo Ying hadn't even finished speaking yet and his score had already exceeded 100, he didn't know how many points he could get.

He has three-point voting rights, but he cannot vote for himself. Zhao Lingshan asked him to vote for Zhang Mantuo, and then let Zhang Mantuo vote for him, which is equivalent to mutual brushing.

The celebrities who came to the scene don’t have any QQ groups at all. Ordinary people in Hong Kong and Macau don’t use that software, let alone them.

After entering the venue, they all got several cards for voting. After Huo Ying finished speaking, the score was 203 points.

Chen Xi didn't know whether the score was high or low.

But when he looked at the other person's face, he seemed to have no joy.

"It's estimated that only about a hundred people voted." Zhao Lingshan just counted in her mind.

"That's not bad. I don't even know if anyone has a higher score than him."

"Believe in yourself, you are the best!" Zhao Lingshan waved her arms vigorously and cheered him on.
