Hong Kong Variety Show: From Little Brother to Big Boss
Chapter 175 Blowing Chicken Proposal
The spring breeze of March was blowing gently, and the main hall was already filled with solemnity.
The meeting had not yet officially begun. Liu Xu had just found a seat to sit down, with the bench still somewhat warm, when he saw that the chairman Gao Laofa and his respected uncle Deng Bo had already arrived.
Their arrival instantly attracted the attention of everyone present and made the atmosphere of the entire venue more solemn and full of expectations.
Gao Laofa walked slowly and steadily towards the main seat, looking around the hall with deep eyes. Seeing that the participants had not yet arrived, his face did not reveal the slightest anxiety or impatience.
Instead, he sat down calmly and slowly closed his eyes, as if taking a short mental nap, but in fact he was silently observing everything.
As the participants arrived one by one, Big D's lateness once again became the focus of everyone's attention. He walked into the venue in a unique manner, adding a bit of drama to the meeting.
In the breathless silence of everyone, the restaurant owner Gao Laofa remained calm and did not utter a word, but a subtle sense of tension was already permeating the air.
At this moment, Lao Gui's slightly playful but sharp voice suddenly sounded. He said in a tone that seemed relaxed but actually contained sarcasm:
"Ha! Big D, you really are very busy. You always come so late and make all of us wait for you. You really do us a great honor."
As he spoke, Lao Guigang's eyes quickly moved around the conference hall, as if looking for an ally who could respond to his voice.
Upon hearing this, Big D curled up his lips into an arrogant smile, which was a response to Lao Guigang's provocation as well as confidence in his own strength.
He did not explode immediately, but walked to his seat in a leisurely manner. After sitting down, he spoke slowly:
"Old Ghost, if you are dissatisfied, you can just say it directly. There is no need to beat around the bush."
"I'm late because I'm working hard for the club's benefit. That's why I'm only a few minutes late. Compared to those who only talk but don't do anything, I think this is nothing."
Big D's words were sonorous and powerful, with confidence and disdain flashing in his eyes. He directly and forcefully responded to Lao Guigang's provocation.
After saying this, he deliberately cast his gaze towards the master Gao Laofa who was resting with his eyes closed in the main seat, and asked in a respectful yet slightly provocative tone: "Brother Fa, as the master, you have seen a lot, tell me, does what I said make sense?"
As Big D asked, the venue suddenly became so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard. Gao Laofa, who was sitting at the main seat, slowly opened his eyes, his gaze deep and sharp.
He did not comment, but just nodded slightly. That gesture showed both his control over the overall situation and his recognition of Big D's strength.
Immediately afterwards, Gao Laofa coughed lightly to indicate that the meeting officially began.
He glanced at the hall masters sitting on both sides, and said in a deep and powerful voice: "Everyone, has anything difficult happened in our territory recently? Speak freely and discuss countermeasures together."
Upon hearing this, Chuiji was the first to raise his hand to request to speak. After receiving a nod from Gao Laofa, he cleared his throat, his voice full of pride and excitement.
"Dear colleagues, in recent days, our society has produced a fierce general - Liu Xu! He not only crushed the United Front with his feet and shook Hongxing with his fists with his mighty force."
"In the confrontation with the two major societies, Dongxing and Xinji, they demonstrated extraordinary strength and wisdom, which frightened the other side and made them retreat."
"We have won unprecedented reputation and respect for our club. This achievement is not only a glory for my students, but also a pride for our entire club!"
"Therefore, on this solemn occasion today, I solemnly recommend Liu Xu, who has made great military achievements and possesses both moral integrity and talent, to serve as the person who will lead us and Liansheng Yau Ma Tei."
“I believe that under his leadership, our brothers in Yau Ma Tei will unite as one, create brilliance together, and let the flag of our association fly higher!”
Chuiji's sudden recommendation was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples in Liu Xu's heart.
He has privately declined the bid for the position of the head of Yau Ma Tei. After all, Yau Ma Tei is almost full of people, and it doesn't make much difference to him whether he becomes the head of the hall early or late.
He never thought that Chuiji would make the matter public in front of everyone. This sudden "surprise" made him feel stunned and helpless, and of course, a little touched.
In the meeting room, as the words of Blowing Chicken fell, the atmosphere gradually became subtle and tense.
Every glance cast on Liu Xu gradually carried different emotional colors.
There was the undisguised joy and excitement from the three confidants, like the spring sun, warm and bright;
There are also those complex and difficult to distinguish emotions, which are far away but cannot be ignored, including the light of envy and the fire of jealousy.
Moreover, there was hostility coming from not far away, as sharp and biting as an icy blade.
Ba Bi, a member of the Hong Gun Club of Lian Sheng, is a student of Chui Ji. In the past, he worked diligently to help Chui Ji manage the territory in Causeway Bay. They should have been brothers in the same boat.
However, the turning point of fate often begins with a change of mind. Since the other party got involved in flour, he became sworn brothers with the leader of Hongxing, Liang Kun, and started a flour business together.
As wealth poured in like the tide, the number of his subordinates increased day by day. Ba Bi's ambition and strength also expanded accordingly. Gradually, he felt that his wings had grown strong enough and he wanted to soar into a wider sky.
This expansion, like an invisible wall, quietly built an insurmountable gap between him and the chicken.
This allowed Babi, a loyal disciple, to quietly transform and gradually become a more complex and independent character.
Just as Liu Xu was immersed in contemplation of Babi's changes, a sudden noise suddenly interrupted his thoughts.
I saw Fei Hua, who was sitting next to the round table, slapping the tabletop unscrupulously. His laughter was like a loud bell, echoing throughout the entire space and was hard to ignore.
Seeing this, Chuiji was instantly furious. He slammed the table and shouted, "Fei Hua, what the hell are you laughing at?"
When Fei Hua heard this, he immediately stopped laughing and moving, and waved his hands, "Hey, Brother Ji, don't be angry."
"I didn't mean to do that. I just suddenly remembered the good news that the old sow at home gave birth to piglets yesterday. I was too happy and couldn't control myself. Please forgive me, please forgive me."
After saying this, Fei Hua suddenly changed the subject, stroked his slightly rough stubble on his chin with his fingertips, and a meaningful smile with a hint of sarcasm appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"But having said that, Brother Ji, your attitude just now was so majestic that I almost thought you were the leader of this club. No one can match your aura."
As soon as Fei Hua said this, the other hall masters on both sides of the round table immediately shut their mouths, their flushed faces mixed with embarrassment and shock.
The hall masters of Mixed He Liansheng and Eat Brain all understand one thing, that is, the hall masters with large territories and many subordinates are often far away from the position of being the hall master of Mixed He Liansheng.
This is because the election of the Heliansheng leader is not determined by the votes of the hall masters or the will of the previous leader, but is firmly in the hands of those respected uncles.
They are the real driving force behind the society, and their influence is far-reaching and subtle.
The power in the hands of the uncles is like a double-edged sword, which not only protects the ancient traditions of the society, but also checks and balances the rise of new forces in the society.
Naturally, they would not easily allow a hall master who was too powerful to take the position of the headmaster, because this would undoubtedly weaken their own status and influence.
