With only four months left before the Legislative Council elections, while the democrats are still coordinating candidates, the establishment factions have roughly completed the election layout. Among them, one of the last "suspense" sports, performing arts, culture and publishing industry, it has been rumored that the candidate has been finalized, and the current MP Ma Feng, who has been a two-term congressman, abdicated the position. Successful election will create a precedent in which "father and son files" will successively serve as the same seat.

Golden treasure helps the film to support the sports world

The democrats are fighting for seats in the functional constituency. Sports, performing arts, culture and publishing are one of the goals. However, when the lyricist Zhou Boxian did not intend to fight again, there is still no real candidate. In contrast, the establishment faction has basically completed the "pointing soldiers" work . Last year, the political circle had reported that Huo Qigang was interested in running for the Legislative Council, but he has only heard the staircase, and even once pointed out that Ma Fengguo has been "blessed" for re-election. In fact, Ma Fengguo has also been very active in recent months. The government supports industries that have been severely hit by the epidemic.

Huo Qigang started to become active on the Internet in recent months. Originally, he wanted to use the Tokyo Olympics to gain exposure. However, after the Olympics was postponed, the focus was changed to support the industry. In March this year, he established the online channel "HK Sport Alliance" to find bicycle names. Huang Jinbao, FA Chairman Bei Junqi and others made films to support the sports world.

Ma admits that he is "unfamiliar with sports"

According to reports, the situation for the two men to qualify has become clearer. Huo Qigang will succeed Ma Fengguo without any surprises, and will send out selected performance speeches on behalf of the establishment. Huo Qigang, 40, was born in a wealthy family. His grandfather was the late Vice Chairman of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, Huo Yingdong. He was the most influential red capitalist in Hong Kong; his father, Huo Zhenting, is the current president of the Hong Kong Association and Olympic Committee. Mr. Wen, out of bounds, withdrew from the frontline in 2012. If Huo Qigang was successfully elected this time, it will be eight years later that Huo's family will be represented in the Legislative Council.

Some people in the sports industry pointed out that Ma Fengguo recently recognized himself as "unfamiliar with sports" in the program of Lin Dahui, chairman of the sports institute. This caused some people in the industry to whisper that Huo Qigang, who was born in a sports family and his wife was the former "diving queen" Guo Jingjing, knew more Needed by the sports world. However, some people in the industry defended Ma Fengguo, saying that his seat sector is too large to cover every sector. Just as Huo Qigang's understanding of the film industry, he must not be as good as Ma Fengguo who was born in film production.

The 64-year-old Ma Fengguo served as a member of the Provisional Legislative Council, the first and second Legislative Council, and returned to the Legislative Council in 2012. He has served as a member of the performing arts community for nearly eight years. He is currently the head of the delegation of the Hong Kong District People's Congress. A senior institutionalist said that of course, Ma Fengguo dominated the status of the rivers and lakes and their connections. However, the current generations are changing, and if it does not affect the victory of the institutionalist, the newcomers must also take over.

Bei Junqi praised Huo Qigang's willingness to nominate

The vice president of the Hong Kong Association and the Olympic Committee and the chairman of the Football Association Bei Junqi said that Huo Qigang is very familiar with the sports world, young and healthy, if the other party runs, he will nominate the other party as soon as possible. Bei Junqi said that Ma Fengguo has also contributed a lot to the sports industry, and is familiar with the film and cultural circles. If he wants to re-elect him, he will also support it. However, due to age issues, the establishment can only send one person to the election, and may need to consider when to hand in the baton.

He believes that the establishment faction has already been selected, but there is still a period of time before the nomination period. It is difficult to say whether there are variables. As for Huo Qigang, who was accused of being unfamiliar with the other three sectors, Bei Junqi believed that the problem was not big. As long as he was willing to actively participate in it, it would not be difficult to get started.
