Chapter 1159 Voting
After Long Fan finished speaking, the conference room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
"I agree with what Long Guanjun said." Lu Tinghe also slowly opened his mouth to express his opinion.
As fellow apprentices, he and Long Fan had a very good relationship on a daily basis, so he naturally had to stand on Long Fan's side at this critical moment. In addition, he was very optimistic about Xia Yu, otherwise he would not have recommended Xia Yu to join the Charizard Special Operations Team right after Xia Yu finished the College Cup.
Both publicly and privately, he supports Xia Yu as the champion.
Lu Tinghe smiled kindly at Xia Yu and said, "Xia Yu is a very outstanding young man. We need young people like him. When he becomes the champion in the future, we can let him visit other countries and compete with other champions. His strength is enough."
After Long Fan and Lu Tinghe expressed their opinions, Li Ruilin and Duan Hongzhi did not rush to express their opinions. They were the two with the highest status among all the champions and senior executives of the Pokémon Association present. They needed to listen to the views and opinions of the other champions before expressing their opinions.
"What about the others? Any opinions?"
"Let me just say a few words!" Zuo Qi, who was tall and strong with muscles that burst through his shirt, said cheerfully, "As for the champion, as long as he does not go beyond the great virtues and does not care about the small details, there will be no problem. When we were in our twenties, who could do better than Xia Yu? I support him to be the champion!"
"I have reservations about Champion Dragon's opinion. I still agree with Vice President Yue's opinion. Letting Xia Yu take on the role of Chief of the Earth Dragon Special Operations Team first doesn't mean we won't let him take on the role of Champion. It means we want him to gain enough experience so he can handle the situation more easily." Mi Ye, a gentle and refined man with a handsome face, like a modest gentleman, said softly, "The position of Chief of the Special Operations Team is no less prestigious than the position of Champion. He will be responsible for various special operations and focus on combat, which is exactly what suits Xia Yu."
…………
The meeting room was clearly divided into two factions. One faction, led by Vice President Yue, was conservative and insisted that Xia Yu could not directly serve as the champion, but should first go to the Earth Dragon Special Operations Team to serve as the captain to gain experience.
The other faction, led by Long Fan, believes that Xia Yu is already capable enough to be the champion. As for administration, which he is not good at, he can be paired with a president of the Pokémon Association who has rich administrative capabilities!
"It seems it's hard to reach a consensus." Li Ruilin then slowly said, "Since this is the case, we can only vote, Shanhe!"
Li Ruilin waved towards Shanhe, who was sitting next to Xia Yu, and said, "Get ready. We'll vote by secret ballot."
"Okay." Upon hearing this, Xu Shanhe quickly stood up and nodded, then walked to Li Ruilin's side.
Looking at Xu Shanhe's back, Xia Yu fell into deep thought at this time, looking at everyone present!
Among the people present, only seven champions, five vice presidents of the Pokémon Association, and three special operations team captains, a total of fifteen people are eligible to vote. However, the four heavenly kings such as Xia Yu and Xu Shanhe and the retired former Phantom Special Operations Team captain Qin Lao are not eligible to vote.
If Xia Yu wants to win the championship against all odds, he must get more than half of the votes, which is eight votes!
Among them, Lao Duan, Li Ruilin, Long Fan, Lu Tinghe and Zuo Qi all clearly expressed their support for Xia Yu. Xia Yu should be able to get their votes steadily. There are five votes here, and he is only three votes short!
However, the vice presidents of the Pokémon Association and the Central China Champion Mi Ye should all be opposed to it. There is no possibility of fighting for it. There are six votes against it.
In addition, Lin Jun from the Phantom Special Operations Team and Shi Chaoyi from the Gyarados Special Operations Team should also vote in favor.
The Rocket Team has already been incorporated into the Phantom Special Operations Team, and Xia Yu is also the deputy captain of the Phantom Special Operations Team, so Lin Jun will definitely vote in favor.
Shi Chaoyi and Xia Yu have a good personal relationship and have cooperated for several years, so he will also vote in favor!
Then the basic vote count should be seven to six.
Whether Xia Yu can become the champion depends on the two most crucial votes, the new champion of South China, Jian Yi, and the captain of the Charizard Special Operations Team, Feng Kuangyin.
Jane was not familiar with the situation and was not sure how she would vote, and she had not expressed her opinion just now.
As for Feng Kuangyin, Xia Yu has known him for a long time and he once worked in the Charizard Special Operations Team for a period of time. Feng Kuangyin should also vote in favor.
You should have hope!
…………
In just a few breaths, Xia Yu had analyzed the voting situation clearly. Theoretically, he should be able to become the champion, but this was only an ideal voting situation, and there might be variables!
"Dear champions, vice presidents, and captains, in order to ensure the fairness of the vote, please go to the meeting room opposite to fill in the voting results in turn. You don't need to bring pens and paper. We have prepared them in advance. After filling them out, just put them directly into the ballot box. Let's start with you, Li Guanjun."
"it is good."
Li Ruilin also nodded and was the first to go to the conference room opposite to vote. Then when Li Ruilin came back, several other champions, vice presidents and the captain of the special operations team also went to the conference room opposite to vote one after another.
When Shi Chaoyi came back after casting his vote, Xu Shanhe followed closely behind him, carrying the ballot box back to the meeting room.
He first shook the ballot box, and then began to take out the voting papers one by one and count the votes!
“Aye!”
“Aye!”
"Vote no!"
"Vote no!"
…………
As Xu Shanhe's voice continued to ring out, the voting patterns continued to change, but the gap between the votes in favor and against was not large. At most, the gap was only two votes, and most of the time, the gap was only one vote.
"Vote no!"
Another vote against was taken out of the ballot box by Xu Shanhe, unfolded and shown to everyone.
The vote count reached seven to six, seven in favor and six against, which meant that Xia Yu was only one vote away from being qualified to be the champion!
At this point, there were only two tickets left in the ballot box. Xia Yu looked at this scene and couldn't help feeling a little nervous!
Xu Shanhe took out another ballot from the ballot box, slowly unfolded it, and then said loudly: "Vote in favor!"
He counted the votes loudly and showed the voting paper in his hand to everyone.
Eight to six!
Now that the dust has settled, Xia Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he was confident about the voting results, he was still a little nervous during the voting process.
Although the outcome was already determined, the vote count was not over yet. Xu Shanhe took the last ballot from the ballot box, slowly unfolded it, and then called out the vote: "Yes!"
Nine to six.
I got nine votes, which means that except for the five vice presidents and the Central China champion Mi Ye, everyone else voted in favor.
Such a result made Xia Yu slightly stunned, then he looked in the direction of South China champion Jian Yi and Feng Kuangyin, and found that they were also looking at him with smiles on their faces.
It seems that I must take some time to thank Champion Jian and Captain Feng!
…………
I wrote half a chapter more yesterday and half a chapter more today, so there is one more chapter.
Keep asking for gifts, please continue to support me!
I should work overtime because of a meeting tomorrow, but I promise to update once (even if I have to write until the early morning, there will definitely be a chapter). I will try my best to update twice a week!
