Hong Kong Variety Show: From Little Brother to Big Boss

Upon hearing this, Wang Ergou quickly dropped the microphone and walked to the table, nodding seriously. He pounced on Li Hangluo and yelled, "Feimao, come and get the wine."

He even asked Li Hangluo's female companion to spit a stronger saliva, which made everyone laugh. However, the glass of wine eventually fell into Li Hangluo's mouth.

There was no way Liu Xu would take sides over such a matter.

More interaction among subordinates, even if it is just mutual insults, can enhance the relationship between them.

Everyone played until three in the morning and drank ten boxes of beer in a row before they felt satisfied. They began to stagger when they walked, but Liu Xu and Tian Yangsheng were the only ones who remained sober.

Liu Xu's physical fitness was far superior to that of ordinary people, so this amount of alcohol only made him feel a little bloating in his stomach, but he didn't feel drunk at all.

As for Tian Yangsheng, he doesn't drink alcohol. This is a habit he developed when he was a mercenary, and he still maintains it even though he has changed his career.

Seeing that everyone was drunk, Liu Xu could only announce the end of the party and called May to arrange a room for everyone to rest.

Liu Xu stood up and began to wander around the nightclub, mainly to see how it was managed and operated.

Liu Xu recognized Jasmine's management and operational capabilities, but he was not sure about her ability to employ people.

However, after going through this whole process, Liu Xu felt that Jasmine had a good eye for people.

He had been to the Charming Nightclub when it was still run by the Ni family, one to experience the prosperity of Tsim Sha Tsui, and the other to find out about the situation in Tsim Sha Tsui.

Although the owner of this nightclub has changed from the Ni family to Daozai, the business is better than when he first came here.

When someone gets drunk and causes trouble in the nightclub, May can quickly resolve the situation, which shows that May has good management and business skills.

With the release of the Hong Kong Island Return Ordinance, Hong Kong's economy is about to enter a period of rapid growth.

Nightclubs and other entertainment venues are also about to usher in a golden age. It is not a dream for a single store to achieve an annual profit of 100 million yuan, and even a single-day turnover may exceed 1 million yuan.

Therefore, Liu Xu paid great attention to industries such as nightclubs, bars, and karaoke. By the middle of the year, all clubs would begin to pay more attention to them.

However, he was a little upset when he thought that someone dared to sell "flour" in his place. If the nightclub was investigated, he would lose hundreds of thousands of dollars if it was closed for one day.

When Bozai wakes up, he will have to keep a close eye on this matter and find the rat hiding in the gutter as soon as possible to prevent any bad things from happening.

……

In the following time, Liu Xu's life returned to normal again.

No one from the first or second rate gangs dared to cause trouble for the Lian Sheng Gang. Only some members from other gangs came to Yau Tsim Mong to spend money and caused minor troubles when they were drunk.

Based on the principle of "everyone is a guest", as long as the other party has a good attitude of admitting their mistakes, Hua Zai and Bo Zai will not make things difficult for the other party. After paying the money, the other party can leave with everything intact.

There were also those who couldn't come up with the money, so Liu Xu instructed them to ask the boss behind them for money. And no one dared to refuse to pay when they were asked to do so.

If you are not as strong as Lian Sheng, you are not afraid of playing dirty tricks on Lian Sheng. If someone has money and you don't give it to him, the consequences will be either broken hands or feet, or a one-day sea tour package.

Of course, Bo Zai and Hua Zai can handle these situations, and there is no need for Liu Xu to step in.

Since his promotion to the helm of the Helian Sheng team, he's completely cut off from the turmoil of the underworld. His daily routine consists of meeting acquaintances for tea, walking his dog, playing with his girlfriend, and managing the headquarters.

The former is to improve one's own network of contacts, the middle one is to increase the fun of life, and the latter is to maintain the stability of the community.

So, Liu Xu's life has been really dull recently.

He was also happy to enjoy this ordinary life because he knew it was temporary.

Once the New Year is over, even if other clubs still don't dare to provoke He Liansheng, he will no longer be able to enjoy himself comfortably in Dongsheng Building.

What Ni Kun said is absolutely right, if you don’t move forward in the world of martial arts, you will die!

Moreover, while Liu Xu was enjoying himself, Xin Ji secretly deployed troops and gathered them on Chengli's territory in Shek O.

The reason why they did not gather in Central was that they were too big a target. The headquarters of the four major societies had always been watched openly and secretly, and any slight movement would expose them.

It would be different if people gathered quietly in Shek O, as it is remote and few people pay attention to it.

In addition, Stanley is to the northwest and Kwun Tong is to the east. Both places can be reached by water in 30 minutes, making it a rare and good location.

This is indeed the case. Apart from Liu Xu's intelligence team, no other society has noticed Xinji's secret actions.

Liu Xu and Xinji had a bad relationship, but they didn't have any grudges against each other either. After realizing that the other party's target might be the Stanley District, Liu Xu stopped paying attention to it.

He did not reveal Xinji's actions to others. As long as Xinji did not break out of the Hong Kong Island on a large scale, Liu Xu would not care.

……

In Sha Tin District, Qiankun Film and Television Company, Liang Kun frowned at the latest week's profits.

"Sha Qiang, have you been secretly taking kickbacks from the film and television company recently?"

It's no wonder that Liang Kun has such doubts. His last film sold five million Hong Kong dollars in a week, but his latest film didn't even make one million a week!

Facing Liang Kun's suspicious look, Sha Qiang stared at himself with wide eyes and said, "Brother Kun, I took kickbacks? Where can I take kickbacks? Where can I get kickbacks?"

Liang Kun threw the profit report on the table and said, "Look, this week's company profit is so much less than last week's. I can't help but be suspicious."

"Brother Kun, have you forgotten that you invited a popular female artist to film last week?"

"The difference shouldn't be that big, right?" Liang Kun was still a little suspicious.

Seeing that the boss didn't believe him, Sha Qiang was a little angry. He searched the cabinet and took out the company's financial statements for last week. He threw them in front of Liang Kun and said, "Brother Kun, take a look for yourself!"

Curious, Liang Kun flipped open the booklet and found it clearly listed the number of films sold in various regions. The largest number of sales came not from the mainland or Yau Tsim Mong, but from Kwun Tong and Sham Shui Po.

The property in Sham Shui Po was sold for HK$800,000 and the property in Kwun Tong was sold for HK$1.5 million.

These two regions alone accounted for an astonishing half of last week's $5 million profit.

He then flipped through the financial records for the latest film shooting this week. Kwun Tong only had 200,000, while Sham Shui Po only had 150,000, a difference of more than five times.

"Popular female artists are so popular?" Liang Kun looked at Sha Qiang with an inexplicable look in his eyes.

Having followed Liang Kun for decades, Sha Qiang quickly understood his intentions and quickly advised, "Brother Kun, if we continue to invite him, we will completely anger Boss Lei."

Sha Qiang's words were like a bucket of cold water, instantly calming Liang Kun's agitated mood.

Although Hung Hing occupies an important position in the underworld of Hong Kong Island, Boss Lei’s strength in the white world should not be underestimated.

Inviting another female artist from Xinyicheng would be an insult to Boss Lei and would break off relations with him.

After a brief pause, Liang Kun changed the subject: "Then please invite Dai Xiaomei from Shaw Brothers or Liu Ting from Golden Harvest."

As if thinking of something, he added, "Let's invite Liu Yuting from Golden Harvest. Her on-screen personality is quite similar to Li Zhenzhen. She will definitely become a hit."

"Although Boss Zou is only famous in the film and television industry, he is equally powerful, Brother Kun. How about we discuss this further?" Sha Qiang asked cautiously.

Liang Kun said impatiently, "No matter how difficult Boss Zou is, he's still easier to deal with than Lord Shao and Boss Lei, right? Otherwise, why don't you dress up as a woman and act like the heroine?"

"No, no, no," Sha Qiang quickly waved his hand to refuse, then tentatively proposed: "There are many female artists in Japan who are popular in Southeast Asia. Anyway, we have torn our relationship with the Yamaguchi-gumi..."
