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

Chapter 235「234」Boss Li, it’s too early for you to be happy!
"First unreasonable suggestion: ****..."

Guan Zu filled in the content on it.

——"Boycott Mr. Li's 10 supermarkets for days!"

When you are finished, click OK.

"The target has been determined and the evaluation has begun... After the evaluation, this matter will consume 6% of the support rate in Causeway Bay and 2% of the support rate in Wan Chai (Causeway Bay residents will also participate)..."

"Explanation: The boycott will be initiated in a week and will last for 10 days..."

After reading the system prompt, Guan Zu consumed 6% of Causeway Bay's support rate.

Less than you might think.

"Come on, drink!"

Guan Zu felt relieved, laughed, and continued drinking with Mao Xiangyang and Song Zihao.

Mao Xiangyang then said, "A-Zu, I have already mentioned the matter of acquiring ATV shares that you mentioned to the higher-ups, but I don't know whether it will work or not."

Guan Zu: "Thanks, Brother Mao."

Mao Xiangyang: "You're welcome. Compared to these people, I think you, A-Zu, are a better person."

23:00, after drinking, we went our separate ways.

……

Two days later,
The third "Knowledge Cup" has officially begun!
In this third phase, more citizens from all over Hong Kong participated than in the first and second phases.

There were several examination venues in the New Territories, Kowloon and Hong Kong Island, and traffic around them was jam-packed before and after the exams.

According to the statistics of the day, the total number of participating citizens in the three regions exceeded 30. Preliminary screening was conducted on the first day, and qualifying rounds were held on the second day. The top 1000 (Qianlong List) and the top 100 (Tianbang List) were selected.

A week has passed since the golf incident, so the heat has gradually subsided.

As the third "Knowledge Cup" progressed, it dominated the hot searches in Hong Kong.

People all over Hong Kong are talking about it.

ATV has invested most of its resources into this "Knowledge Cup".

The morning, noon, evening and night news reported:
"Under the attention of the public, the much-anticipated third "Knowledge Cup" quiz competition officially kicked off two days ago..."

"In the past two months of 'Who Wants to Be a Millionaire', 43 contestants have won prizes ranging from 1 to 6 yuan, and 7 outstanding contestants have won the 10 yuan grand prize. They have not only received generous material rewards, but also won wide social reputation and television exposure opportunities, becoming veritable 'knowledge stars'."

“Following the huge success of the previous two events, this Knowledge Cup has ignited the unlimited enthusiasm of Hong Kong citizens. This round of events attracted the enthusiastic participation of more than 30 citizens, setting a historical record.”

"The scale of this competition is unprecedented. Multiple examination halls were set up in the three major districts of New Territories, Kowloon and Hong Kong Island. During the examination period, traffic around the examination halls was almost paralyzed..."

The next day,

"After two days of fierce competition in the "Knowledge Cup", after layers of screening and intelligence competition, 100 outstanding candidates finally stood out and were honored to be on the much-anticipated "Heavenly Ranking". "

"The contestants on the 100-day list will soon face a more severe challenge - the "Millionaire" segment, where they can win prizes ranging from 2000 to 10 yuan by answering questions."

"However, this is not the end. Players who successfully pass the "Millionaire" will be eligible to participate in the annual "King of the Heavenly Ranking" competition. Compete for the supreme honor - the title of "King of the Heavenly Ranking" and the coveted 100 million grand prize. "

That night,

The live broadcast of "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" followed closely, randomly selecting 25 contestants from the third period and broadcasting the competition live on TV.

That’s right, it has been changed to live broadcast.

Although the recorded broadcast format can make the program more compact, it is not as real as live broadcast.

Even if there is a minor live broadcast accident, the Hong Kong citizens who have not suffered any minor consequences will not think that the program is not well done. Instead, they will find it real and interesting.

That night, ATV's ratings reached an astonishing 87%.

The ratings of TVB's prime-time TV dramas were directly cut in half.

the next day,
On the streets and alleys across Hong Kong, whether it is casual chats after dinner or discussions on public transportation, the "Knowledge Cup" has become a hot topic among people.

In a busy subway station, several colleagues were communicating.

"Did you watch 'Who Wants to Be a Millionaire' live last night? There were a lot of history questions that I happened to know the answers to. It's a pity that I didn't have the chance to try them out on stage."

"Yeah, it feels so easy. Next time I must participate in the Knowledge Cup and try to get the qualification to participate in "Millionaire"."

"I participated in the Knowledge Cup, but unfortunately I only ranked 232nd and couldn't appear on TV."

Lee Tung Street, Wan Chai,

A tea restaurant.

An old man in his sixties, holding a certificate of honor from the Heavenly Ranking, boasted to everyone he met:
"Hahaha, my son also participated in this "Knowledge Cup" and made it into the top 100! This month he can participate in "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire"! "

"Do you know? My son..."

"Wow, listen to the roar~~~"

Other old men: “…………”

Damn, I hate people who show off the most!
No, I have to go back and urge my children to read books, and also get me an honor on the Heavenly List.

Island University of Hong Kong,

In school, many students are also very enthusiastic about the "Knowledge Cup", or more accurately, "indignant".

"It's already the third term, with 300 people, and not a single college student. It's embarrassing."

"Yes, if others can do it, there's no reason why we students can't do it."

Not only college students from this school, but college students from other schools also have this idea.

It is said that those who can go to university are all geniuses with high IQs, but it turns out that not even one person among the top 100 in the Knowledge Cup can become a university student. How shameful!

Therefore, many students from universities across Hong Kong have also worked hard to study "Five Thousand Years of Chinese History" and "A Brief History of China (Senior High School Textbook)" carefully.

Afterwards, there were several days of enthusiastic response and extensive discussion, but as time went by, the heat subsided compared to the initial stage.

In street conversations, the topic of the "Knowledge Cup" is no longer as frequent as it was in the beginning, but one can still occasionally hear citizens reminiscing about the wonderful moments of the competition or praising a player's outstanding performance.

Although students in various universities have returned to their daily study rhythm, the enthusiasm for learning inspired by the "Knowledge Cup" has not dissipated. They are sharpening their knives and preparing to show their skills in the fourth "Knowledge Cup" to wipe out the shame of their college students.

……

Guan Zu,

Five-star company, conference room,

"After the Knowledge Cup, the next step is the "School Monthly Exam". "

"The schools in Wan Chai are basically back on track. There is nothing much to say. Just do it as usual. Only the schools in Wong Tai Sin and Kowloon City are having their first monthly exams."

"I believe all students and parents are looking forward to this monthly exam."

"So, A-Ren, A-Qiu, Hua-Di, Xiao-Rou, Wei-Hao, the rest of you please work harder."

Everyone: "Yes, Brother Zu!"

at this time,

A prompt appeared in Guan Zu’s system.

"Award 1: You hosted the "Hong Kong Knowledge Cup", which had a huge impact and attracted the attention of the whole of Hong Kong."

"Reward 2: You gained Hong Kong Island support rate +1% (9%)"

「奖励3：你获得湾仔、黄大仙、九龙城、中西区等支持率+2%（46%、43%、44%、23%）」

Support rate further increased.

It was worth it for Guan Zu to spend so much energy.

"Reward 4: You have obtained the "1991 Legislative Council direct election candidate qualification" *1"

Guan Zu was happy!
The fourth direct election qualification has appeared!
"Reward 5: "Bacchus" can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk and without causing any harm to the body."

Guan Zu: “…………”

nice one!
From today on, I can drink as much as I want, hahaha!

……

……

Li, the headquarters of the Yangtze River Group, "It's finally over."

Boss Li looked at the newspapers on the table, which had basically been replaced by new news.

With a sigh of relief.

He knew that the last turmoil was basically over.

Although he was ready to evacuate to Canada, Hong Kong Island was his base after all, and he did not want to lose the support of the people here.

At this time, Boss Li was the most popular in Hong Kong Island. The plot of the popular TV series "Under the Lion Rock" in the 70s made Hong Kong Island citizens believe that Boss Li was a model of self-made man. He had money to buy assets all over the world. This was the glory of Hong Kong Island capital, and he was the embodiment of the Lion Rock spirit.

Knock knock knock~~~
"Dad!"

At this time, Young Master Li knocked on the door and walked in.

Boss Li looked at his eldest son. Although he made a mistake this time, it was just because he underestimated the enemy. He still had great confidence in his eldest son's ability and his idea of ​​training him as his successor was not shaken at all.

Boss Li: “What’s the matter?”

Young Master Li: "Dad, Supervisor Wang Bo just gave me a suggestion. Should we bribe some residents to testify that Guan Zu did not receive the money? Many of these residents are gamblers or owe money, so it is easy to control them."

"no!"

Boss Li said decisively: "I have thought about this plan, but what is true is true, and what is false is false. Even if it can cause trouble to Guan Zu for a while, Guan Zu has ATV to help him. It is too difficult to use this to make him suffer."

"That's why I finally chose to let Xiao Liu (Boss Liu) create the golf incident. Diverting the public's attention is the best way."

"And now that things have finally calmed down, let's not create more trouble."

Boss Li doesn't want to cause any more trouble.

Mr. Li: "Okay, Dad."

He himself also felt that this plan had many shortcomings, but out of his disgust for Guan Zu, he couldn't help but mention it to his father to see if his father agreed.

"But, Dad, is there nothing we can do about this Guan Zu?"

Young Master Li still refused to accept the result.

Boss Li shook his head: "There is no way for now. The Li family has already tried it last time. The tax bureau, the ICAC, the police... none of them can do anything to him. If we want to deal with him, we still have to wait for an opportunity."

"be patient!"

"We are not even in the same league. We just need to find his weakness and bite him to death."

Young Master Li nodded: "Okay!"

He was thinking that forcing Jiang Tiansheng last time was not enough, and he could force Jiang Tiansheng further this time.

What is the leader of Hongxing, Ant!

……

……

At this time, what Li Daheng didn't know was that Guan Zu had already begun preparing to attack him.

Jiang Tiansheng's villa.

"Azu, what you're doing is getting bigger and bigger."

"That Mr. Li has called me twice. I am a little afraid of him now."

In the swimming pool,
My sister-in-law was swimming. From time to time, she emerged from the water and shook her hair back, revealing her signature big wave pose.

By the swimming pool,

A table with fruits and tea,

Jiang Tiansheng and Guan Zu were sitting.

Guan Zu: "He didn't make things difficult for you, Jiang Sheng."

Jiang Tiansheng sighed: "He wants me to provide him with evidence of your crime, or help him find evidence of your crime."

Speaking of this, he was a little scared.

He is not like Guan Zu who has been whitewashed. He still has a lot of dirty secrets on him. The Li family is so powerful that if they do anything, Jiang Tiansheng will have to go to jail to get cleaned up.

Fortunately, Guan Zu really didn't have any black material, so even if Jiang Tiansheng wanted to provide it, he couldn't. In the end, Master Li didn't force him anymore.

However, this incident also reminded him: Guan Zu was too troublesome, and the person he offended was too powerful, so he would be implicated easily.

So Jiang Tiansheng is a little scared now, and even has an idea in his mind: Why not let Guan Zu quit Hongxing?
Guan Zu was surprised: "Is there such a thing? Can you tell me the details?"

Jiang Tiansheng recounted the two phone calls made by Mr. Li.

Guan Zu was happy after hearing this.

"Mr. Jiang, you don't have to be too scared of Mr. Li."

"what?"

Jiang Tiansheng was stunned.

They are the Li family, the richest family. I am just a gangster, how can I not be afraid?
Guan Zu took a sip of tea and said slowly, "Mr. Jiang, you know that when I first negotiated with Boss Li about Shantou Street, Boss Li also wanted to cheat and refused to pay. Do you know how I convinced him?"

Jiang Tiansheng: "How did you convince him?"

This is what Jiang Tiansheng, Chen Yao and others, as well as many people in Hong Kong, are curious about.

Boss Li is a money-hungry man, would he pay so readily?
Guan Zu smiled: "It's very simple... I told him a truth. Although he is rich, his power and network are unmatched. However, there are so many victims in Shantou Street. There will always be people who are angry and blood will splatter ten steps away."

"Drawing lots for life and death, and agreeing to treat their children and descendants well... there will definitely be a large number of people willing to die."

"Boss Li is worth hundreds of billions. Would he risk his life with an ordinary person for these hundreds of millions?"

Jiang Tiansheng was stunned.

What the hell!

Can you do this?

Then he was silent again. What was the difference between this and the bounty offered by the underworld? The only difference was that the bounty was offered to the underworld people before, but this time the target was the wealthy.

After hearing this, Jiang Tiansheng suddenly understood.

Yes, I am barefoot, and my subordinates are a bunch of desperate barefoot villains. Why should I be afraid of him wearing gold and silver?
It’s transparent!

Guan Zu still has many methods!

The smile is back.

Guan Zu reminded him again: "However, Mr. Jiang, this method is not really suitable for you, unless you have a die-hard assassin. Otherwise, the Li family will just say: I will pay you 10 times the amount of money the employer gives you, and your assassin will turn against you and report you, which will be hilarious."

Jiang Tiansheng: “…………”

The smile disappeared.

The hope that was finally born was extinguished by Guan Zu.

Guan Zu added: "However, as a deterrent, it is still okay. At least the Li family will not go too far."

Jiang Tiansheng thought about it and his smile returned.

"By the way, A-Zu, what are you doing here this time?"

"I want to help everyone make a fortune."

"what?"

Jiang Tiansheng was surprised.

I finally heard Guan Zu say this. The last time was a year ago when Guan Zu led Hongxing to the stock market to make money.

"How to get rich?"

"Just like last time, I'm going to raise funds, the more the better, and I want clean money... This time, I want to short Mr. Li's Hutchison Whampoa Group."

The "boycott of Mr. Li's ParknShop" is just Guan Zu's appetizer. The main course is to short sell Hutchison Whampoa, the listed company that owns ParknShop.

There is another purpose: to show off my Guan Zu’s muscles!
ps: ParknShop is affiliated to Watsons, Watsons (not listed) is affiliated to Hutchison Whampoa (listed), and Hutchison Whampoa is affiliated to Cheung Kong Holdings (head office).
