Hong Kong Variety Show: From Little Brother to Big Boss

Oura Kuro slowly stood up, looked around, and said in a tone that was almost a declaration: "I, Oura Kuro, am here today to make a decision that goes against some private promises."

"I understand that as a member of the society, loyalty and trust are of vital importance. But I also understand that the future of the society should not be constrained by personal desires and the old power structure."

"Fire Bull, Flying Hair, and Shanghai Boy, all three are outstanding members of the club, each with their own strengths."

“However, in my opinion, the society needs not only a capable leader, but also a visionary leader who can lead the society to new heights.”

Having said this, Oura Kuro deliberately paused. The atmosphere in the entire conference hall instantly froze, and everyone held their breath waiting for his next words.

“Therefore, I have decided not to cast my vote for either candidate.”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the meeting room, except Gao Laofa and Liu Xu, was in an uproar.

Deng Bo's face looked extremely ugly. He never expected that after saying so much, Oura Hei would actually give up, which completely disrupted his plan.

While others were surprised and angry, Gao Laofa remained calm. In order to avoid anyone disrupting the situation, he quickly confirmed the voting result in public:

"Shanghaizi received three votes, Feimao received one vote, and Huoniu received two votes. I declare: Shanghaizi is promoted to the leader of the North Point Hall of Liansheng."

Not only was the conversation very fast, but the speed of transmission was also very fast. The entire process took only five seconds before it reached the ears of every member in the hall and the final conclusion was reached.

Shanghai Boy, who had returned to the lobby, had a hint of surprise on his face, while Huo Niu was a little disappointed. As for Fei Mao, he was not even there, so naturally he could not provide a corresponding expression.

As Gao Laofa announced the end of the August headquarters meeting, the ten hall masters and many red sticks, led by the chief monk himself, rushed towards the Three Saints Palace.

There were three hall masters who came to power this time, which made many red sticks who wanted to try their luck. The group had nine cars, which was a huge group.

--------------------

There were not many uncles who came with him to the San Sheng Palace. Apart from Uncle Xing who needed to preside over the ceremony, there were only Uncle Chuan Bao and Uncle Long Gen.

Chuanbao wanted the red envelope at the end of the ceremony, while Uncle Longgen wanted to get a share of the incense.

Guan Zaisen, the younger brother he personally promoted, has already gone down to sell salted duck eggs. If he doesn't take advantage of this opportunity to gain some favor, he will not be able to find anyone willing to support him when he is bullied in the future.

The person who presided over the inauguration ceremony was not Xing Shu, but the chief monk Gao Laofa.

Gathered together with all the other hall masters, Gao Laofa was wearing a linen robe and a strip of cloth on his head.

With a serious face and an unquestionable attitude, he presided over the ceremony:

"Open the altar, invite Master Guan to enter the city!"

The three of them all understood the hall master's appointment process, and hurried forward to kowtow to Guan Gong and cut off the chicken's head.

Gao Laofa looked forward and recited the merits of the three people in a loud voice. He did not stop until his mouth was dry and began the routine ceremony:

"Do you love your brothers and sisters, or do you love silver and gold?"

Kneeling on one knee with their backs exposed, Chen Dao, Shanghaizi and Ah Quan looked at each other and responded in unison: "Love brothers and sisters!"

"Do you want to be both loyal and righteous, or do you want a high position and generous salary?"

The three of them did not hesitate: "Seek both loyalty and righteousness!"

As Gao Laofa whipped the three men on the back with the cane again and again, the ceremony finally entered the final stage of self-swearing:

"Thanks to the recognition of my uncles and seniors and the support of my brothers, I was able to take on this important position."

"If there's a fight, I'll be the first to lead the club to respond!"

"If there's money to be contributed, I'll be the first to raise money to support the club!"

"I promise that I will make He Liansheng the loudest in Hong Kong Island, so that all the bosses will support us and we can share the prosperity and wealth with all the brothers!"

He didn't think it was a big deal when he participated in the ceremony, but when Liu Xu watched this scene from a bystander's perspective, he suddenly felt it was extremely funny.

This series of vows sounds high-sounding, but in reality they are just words.

Nowadays, some of the younger generation have begun to use any means necessary to get to the top. If they really stick to loyalty, they will end up dying without a burial place.

Philosopher Liang Kun once said: What is loyalty? I am a lamb!

"What is loyalty? A sword stuck in your heart, making you feel miserable."

As the three people answered, Gao Laofa showed a satisfied smile on his face, which lasted for nearly an hour, and finally it was time to recite the Thirty-Six Oaths of Hongmen.

"The first oath: since you join the Hongmen, your parents are my parents, your brothers and sisters are my brothers and sisters, and your wife is... If you break the oath, you will be killed by the five thunders."

"Second oath: If any of my parents or brothers pass away after living for a hundred years and have no money to bury them, and if they fly to me and ask for help from my brothers, I will inform all my brothers, and no matter how many help you have or how little money you have... I will kill them with five thunderbolts."

"Third oath: All Hong brothers from all provinces and foreign countries, regardless of whether they are scholars, farmers, merchants, or visitors from the underworld, must be given a place to stay and two meals. If they do not care about their family... they will be killed by thousands of swords."

"The fourth oath..."

"The fifth oath..."

"The Thirty-Sixth Oath..."

Gao Laofa read out in a serious tone: "On the fifth day of the eighth month of the Jiazi year! Together with the disciples Chen Dao, Ah Quan, and Shanghaizi who have won consecutive victories, I am officially appointed as the head of the society today. Promoted!"

"..."

As the words "Ceremony is over" were spoken, the atmosphere in the San Sheng Palace reached its climax.

The smoke of incense and the flickering candlelight reflected the complex and changing expressions of everyone present.

Chen Dao, A Quan and Shanghaizi stood up slowly, their eyes sparkling with excitement. Especially A Quan, he changed his job and won the championship just to find a backer, and never thought of becoming the head of the hall.

It is true that trying to plant willows fails, but accidentally planting willows grows into a shade.

Afterwards, the group returned to the club's main hall, where the Cathay Hotel had already prepared a celebration banquet. The money for the banquet was borne by the club's company, and Chen Dao and the other two did not need to pay extra.

At the banquet, after three rounds of drinks, the atmosphere gradually became heated.

As the protagonists of the banquet, Chen Dao, A Quan and Shanghaizi held up their wine glasses and kept toasting the leader of the society and Liu Xu.

Among them, Shanghai Zai mainly toasted the host, while Chen Dao and A Quan mainly toasted Liu Xu.

At the dinner table, Liu Xu accepted the toast from Chen Dao and A Quan with a smile and gave them a thick celebratory red envelope, his eyes revealing some appreciation and happiness.

He patted their shoulders and warned them softly, "Being promoted to the position of the leader of the Heliansheng Hall is the best proof of your ability. But I hope you can continue to be cautious and calm."

"After all, the Hall Master is just a scenery on our way. Our ultimate goal should be to live in the sun with an upright identity."

Hearing this, Ah Quan's expression became stern and he showed gratitude: "Brother Xu, I'll take note of what you said. I just wanted to find a backer so that I can make money safely. I will definitely not let this get to my head."

Chen Dao seemed even more determined: "Hey, Brother Xu, don't you understand me? I will always follow the direction you point me to. Just don't forget to take me with you when you go to clean up, Brother Xu."

Liu Xu smiled slightly, returned the greetings to the two, and nodded secretly in his heart. Chen Dao had followed him for such a long time, so he naturally understood his character, otherwise he would not have established the Mong Kok Gang.

As for A Quan, although the time they have met each other is not too long, Liu Xu feels that he is still trustworthy based on his recent performance.

However, even if the other party does not intend to follow his lead in the future, there will not be much loss.
