Hong Kong Movies: You Hongxingzi, what the hell is the charity king?

Chapter 228 "227" Praise to death! Hahaha~~ Guan Zu, I want to see how you die this time!
"Brother Mao, cheers!"

"Dry!"

It’s still the mushroom stall.

Guan Zu and Mao Xiangyang sat at a dining table with various side dishes on the table.

Cold cucumber salad, fried peanuts, braised beef, garlic-crusted cowpea, fried shrimp, pickled radish, fried snails...

Bottles of San Miguel beer were placed on the table.

At this time, Guan Zu was drinking alone, looking very sad.

Mao Xiangyang wondered: "Why do you look so miserable? What happened?"

Guan Zu shook his head and sighed: "Brother Mao, today, I may be in trouble again..."

"Causing trouble?"

"Do you know who I just went to see?"

"Meeting whom?"

"The eldest son of the Li family."

"What?" Mao Xiangyang was surprised.

The Li family is currently a powerful family that is highly valued by the domestic top leaders. It is hoped that they can continue to stabilize Hong Kong Island after 9*.

However, the close relationship between the Li family and HSBC is obvious to all. The most famous example is that HSBC helped the Li family acquire the Wharf Holdings land from Jardine Matheson.

This kind of acquisition was not made with a really large sum of money, but rather with 6 million to swallow up the 60 billion worth Hutchison Whampoa. In the middle, it relied on HSBC's credit guarantee and matchmaking, and ultimately the acquisition was successful.

No one would believe that there was no exchange of interests between Boss Li and HSBC.

Therefore,
The current attitude towards the Li family is to win them over while also waiting and watching.

"This time, we met because of a few demolished buildings..."

Guan Zu sighed and told the story of everything that Hongxing, He Liansheng Gao Lao, and the Fourth Uncle of the Number Gang had done, including throwing paint and lard, setting fire to the building, and blocking the keyhole. He pinned the blame on the Li family and told them all.

Hearing this, Mao Xiangyang couldn't help but open his eyes wide, frowned, and slammed the table in anger.

"How abominable!"

"This Li family, in order to earn ill-gotten gains for their own selfish desires, actually regarded the people as their enemies. Their behavior is simply outrageous!"

"They are undoubtedly capitalist acts, and their crimes are extremely heinous!"

“No, no, no, it’s possible that I misunderstood them…” Guan Zu shook his head and said, “It’s possible that the Li family didn’t know about this, but the community below misunderstood the Li family’s intentions, so they did this.”

Mao Xiangyang snorted, "No, it's absolutely impossible that the Li family doesn't know about this. Whatever those societies do, it's just a word from the Li family."

Guan Zu stopped talking and changed the subject: "Forget it, I want to talk about another thing. I met with Master Li to discuss compensation."

"Mr. Li wanted to get rid of me with 6000 million at first, but I refused because 6000 million is only 60 per household, which is the same as the previous demolition compensation. In the end, I fought for 1.2 million Hong Kong dollars, just to give more compensation to these 98 households and the rest of the residents who moved out."

"This is a good thing!"

Mao Xiangyang looked at Guan Zu with admiration.

Doing good things for the people is great!
Guan Zu said in distress: "The problem lies here. I made the Li family lose 6000 million Hong Kong dollars for nothing. How can the Li family not hate me?"

"The last time I caused the Shantou Street fire, I caused the Li family to lose hundreds of millions. This time, they lost so much again. I am now afraid that the Li family will find a chance to deal with me."

"The Li family is a big family with tens of billions of dollars. Wouldn't it be the same as crushing an ant to death if they crushed me to death?"

Guan Zu had an expression that said 'I'm so scared'.

Xiaofu and Axing at the next table twitched their lips. They were obviously very arrogant when they were having dinner with Master Li.

Fortunately, Guan Zu didn't let them sit at the same table, otherwise they would have been exposed.

Mao Xiangyang slammed the table in anger.

"They dare!"

Patting Guan Zu on the shoulder, he said, "Don't worry, A-Zu. You are also fighting for the interests of the residents in this matter. It is a great good deed. If the Li family dares to deal with you, I will help you find someone to bring you justice."

After hearing this, Guan Zu was deeply moved: "Brother Mao, I don't know how to thank you... Anyway, thank you very much!... I'm scared!"

Mao Xiangyang: "Don't be afraid! Be upright and honest. We have seen everything you have done and will not let you suffer any loss!"

Guan Zu picked up the wine glass and said to Mao Xiangyang: "Brother Mao, thank you! I'll drink this glass!"

Drink it all in one gulp.

Mao Xiangyang also drank a glass.

After Guan Zu had applied eye drops to the Li family, his goal was achieved and he was no longer so "sad and sad".

Then the two began to drink and eat snacks.

After what happened last time, the boss of this late-night snack stall became familiar with Guan Zu and sent him two dishes of snacks. Fortunately, the news that Guan Zu liked beef broth had not spread here, otherwise he would have at least given Guan Zu a dish of beef broth.

At this time, Guan Zu's phone rang. It was Song Zihao. He had been discharged from the hospital and asked Guan Zu where he was. Guan Zu gave him the address.

Soon, the red taxi arrived outside the food stall.

"Hey, aren't you Brother Hao?"

"Brother Mao!"

"You know Brother Zu?"

"Yes, you know him too? Haha, what a coincidence."

The two met several times later. Mao Xiangyang learned a lot about Hong Kong Island from Song Zihao. He and Hao had similar interests and they became good friends.

The only thing Mao Xiangyang didn't expect was that Song Zihao actually knew Guan Zu and was very familiar with him.

Guan Zu took the opportunity to tell Mao Xiangyang about what happened to Han Jiang from the Ghost King's gang, which made Mao Xiangyang slam his head on the table, feeling that these bandits were simply too abominable.

Guan Zu chuckled, "I was certain that this guy would run away, so I asked someone to watch him. That night he really ran out, but was stopped by the people I sent, and finally handed over to the police."

Mao Xiangyang praised him upon hearing this: "Well done! It's a great relief!"

Had another beer.

The three of them chatted happily and drank a lot of wine without realizing it. They didn't leave until 23pm, when they were satisfied.

……

……

a new day,
Tan Meili and Liang Xiaorou went to Li's company and signed the contract.

In the afternoon, 1.2 million arrived.

Then Guan Zu transferred a large number of grassroots talents who were good at speaking and handling neighborhood issues from the Wan Chai property company, and they visited all 98 households one by one.

Most of these 98 households are elderly people, and % are widows or widowers.

The people at Wan Chai Property Company have a lot of experience in persuading these elderly people. They simply cannot bear to leave their hometown, they are too old, have low risk resistance, and are full of fear of the unknown after moving away.

However, the 'neighborhood aunties' called by Five Star Property were all relatively old, in their fifties or sixties, and seemed friendly. Also, the 40% support rate for Wong Tai Sin, the ancestor of Guan Yu, and the 70% support rate for 19-year-olds played a role.

Finally, Ruan Mei’s grandmother, Cai Po, made the final decision. She moved to Wan Chai from Wong Tai Sin and invited these elderly people to live in Wan Chai.

The next day, three or four buses took these elderly people to Causeway Bay. Wuxing had already arranged a small house for them so that they could experience the living atmosphere of Causeway Bay.

The atmosphere is much better than Wong Tai Sin, and the neighbors are very welcoming.

In just two days, all the elderly people agreed to move.

On the third day, all 98 families moved out, and all their belongings were moved to Causeway Bay in truckloads.

Of the 1.2 million, 1.1 million was distributed by Guan Zu to every household, and the remaining 1000 million was distributed to those residents who had already moved away.

Guan Zu himself did not intercept any of it.

Money and other things are all small things.

The system rewards are the biggest part. As those residents move away, the system rewards come.

"You have provided shelter for a group of elderly residents, fought for their interests, protected their safety, and allowed them to live a better life. At the same time, you have secured a sum of money for the first batch of residents who were relocated... Your actions can be described as great kindness!"

"You get the following rewards:"

"Reward 1: Support rate of people aged 60 and above in Hong Kong +5% (30%)"

"Reward 2: Wong Tai Sin District support rate +5% (45%)"

「Reward 3: Kowloon City District support rate +5% (46%)」

"Reward 4: You should not be treated unfairly when doing good deeds. You will receive financial compensation of 1.2 million Hong Kong dollars (from legal sources)."

"it is good!"

Guan Zu was happy.

Directly gave a 5% support rate reward!

"Brother Zu? Brother Zu?"

Beside her, Liang Xiaorou called Guan Zu several times.

Guan Zu broke away from the system panel and looked at Liang Xiaorou: "What's wrong?"

Liang Xiaorou was a little conflicted: "Brother Zu, this time we didn't keep any money and gave it all to these residents. Isn't it a big loss?"

Guan Zu chuckled, radiating positive energy: "Do good things, I, Guan Zu, don't ask for anything in return."

Liang Xiaorou felt a little sorry for Guan Zu. He mobilized so many manpower but gained nothing but a good reputation. It was simply a losing business.

Although she is a police officer and has a positive outlook on life, she also feels that being a good person and suffering great losses is not advisable.

She suddenly had an idea: "Should we find Sister Zhen and publicize this matter? At least let the people in Hong Kong know that you, Brother Zu, did this good deed."

Guan Zu smiled: "I have already arranged this."

quickly,

Le Huizhen brought her team to Guan Zu and conducted a special interview with Guan Zu, Liang Xiaorou and others.

The interview took 2 hours.

Then I went to Causeway Bay and interviewed the residents who moved to Causeway Bay from Wong Tai Sin.

That night,

TVB's 19:00 news started reporting on this incident.

"Hello, everyone in front of the TV station. Now let's start broadcasting today's news..."

"Recently, a charity campaign initiated by Mr. Guan Zu, the owner of Five Star Property Company, successfully helped 98 elderly residents in Wong Tai Sin District get rid of the threat of black society, and successfully completed the demolition compensation and relocation work..."

"According to reports, the incident originated from five buildings that were about to be demolished. During the period, many illegal acts of gangs forced residents to move, including throwing paint and lard, setting buildings on fire, blocking keyholes and other vile means. There was even a tragic incident in which a resident died downstairs..."

"At the critical moment, Guan Zu led the Five Star Property Management Company to step forward and actively negotiate with the developer, the Li family, and ultimately secured compensation for 98 households that far exceeded previous demolition standards."

"At the same time, in order to ensure that the 98 households could relocate with peace of mind, he organized people to visit each household, patiently explain, eliminate the concerns of the elderly, and invite them to experience a new life in Wan Chai, which greatly alleviated the elderly's fear of the unknown."

"Finally, within just two days, all the elderly agreed to move, and the relocation was successfully completed on the third day."

"This relocation reflects the outstanding contribution of Mr. Guan Zu and Five Star Property Company in protecting the rights and interests of residents..."

It is worth mentioning that, under Guan Zu’s suggestion, Le Huizhen did not report that the entire 1.2 million was given to the residents.

……

……

Deep Water Bay, Mr. Li’s villa.

"Master, this news is a frame-up. It's a naked frame-up!"

Wang Bo watched the news and cursed angrily.

"What do you mean by 'stepping forward and actively negotiating with the developer, the Li family'? This is a hint to the audience that those Black Society members are our people!"

"This Guan Zu is too insidious."

"He took the money, and now he wants to earn the fame too!"

Supervisor Wang Bo was cursing.
But Mr. Li laughed: "Hahaha~~~~"

Wang Bo: “???”

"Young Master, you..."

Young Master Li chuckled: "When you read this news, do you find anything missing?"

Wang Bo: “What’s missing?”

Mr. Li: "Money!"

He sneered, "I gave him 1.2 million, but he didn't report it at all. Obviously, he must have embezzled the money himself."

Wang Bo understood immediately and became excited: "I understand! This time, Guan Zu must have embezzled a lot of money! And he portrayed himself as a kind man. As long as we expose the 1.2 million yuan incident, his reputation will be ruined by the greed."

Young Master Li chuckled, "That's right. I had already calculated this when I gave him 1.2 million."

"This Guan Zu is greedy for fame and fortune, and promotes himself as 'doing good deeds'. If he is greedy a little, even if it is 500 million or 1000 million, it is a sin!"

Wang Bo flattered him: "Young Master is wise!!"

Young Master Li: "Now you know what to do, right?"

Wang Bo nodded: "Of course, we should first find the media to publicize the 1.2 million yuan thing!"

Mr. Li: “Wrong!”

Wang Bo: “Ah?”

Young Master Li said, "Call all the major newspapers today and give them some money. Tomorrow morning, publicize Mr. Guan's great charity and praise him more."

Wang Bo suddenly realized: "I understand, the higher you praise someone, the harder he will fall! After the fermentation has finished, you started to expose the 1.2 million yuan thing! Master, you are amazing!"

Young Master Li: "Yes, that's it!"

Wang Bo: "I'll do it right away!"

After saying that, he left quickly.

Both of them were confident in this plan.

Because they don’t believe that there are really any great good people in the world.

They firmly believed that Guan Zu would definitely take the 1.2 million.

Because of human nature!
They know human nature well, no one is not greedy!
So, this time, Guan Zu is dead!
……

a new day,
Wang Bo's hard work paid off.

All major newspapers in Hong Kong reported the news of Guan Zu's charity work on their front pages.

"Philanthropist Mr. Guan bravely protects the people and helps the elderly in Wong Tai Sin escape the clutches of the underworld forces" - Oriental Daily

"The demolition storm has come to an end, Guan Zu fights for huge compensation for the elderly in Wong Tai Sin" - Ming Pao

"Five-star Property Management Company's exemplary move wins generous compensation for disadvantaged groups" ————"Ta Kung Pao"

In total, more than 30 newspapers devoted a lot of space to praising Guan Zu.

He is praised as a rare man in heaven, unparalleled on earth, and an invincible good man.

Early in the morning,

There was a pile of newspapers from various media on Mr. Li's desk.

Satisfied!
"Haha~~ Guan Zu, this time, I want to see how you die!"
