Hong Kong Variety Show: The Development Notes of a Boss

Lu Yongqiang hadn't decided whether to help Tang Twelve, but Situ Haonan's power was also considerable. He had four boxing gyms and seven fitness studios under his control, which meant he had nearly three hundred professional fighters.

In addition to these professional thugs, Situ Haonan also has a group of gunmen under his command, which should be no less than a hundred people. I heard that most of them were recruited from Thailand and Vietnam, and basically they have been on the battlefield. These people are specifically responsible for the flour business in Situ Haonan's hands.

As the leader of the Five Tigers of the East Star, although Situ Haonan lost the territory in Temple Street last time, his foundation was not damaged much. He still had a lot of territory in the North District of the New Territories and employed two to three thousand people on the territory.

Lu Yongqiang really doesn't intend to provoke this kind of force unless Tang Twelve can come up with a bargaining chip that will make him interested.

Two weeks passed in a flash. During this time, Lu Yongqiang met with the foreigner Joyce again at the golf course. The two discussed the details of the auction. Lu Yongqiang wanted to be 100% sure of winning the 500-yuan license plate in the New Territories, but he absolutely did not want to spend too much money. Therefore, he had to discuss some details with Joyce. Joyce had to ensure that Lu Yongqiang won the license plate at a price only slightly higher than others.

Tong's International seemed to really want to cooperate with Lu Yongqiang. After discussing this with Tong Keren that day, Tong's International sent someone to contact Lu Yongheng the next day. The two sides talked twice and got a result. The preferential rate offered by Tong's International was two percentage points lower than that of HSBC. The annual interest rate of the loan was 8%, and the term was extended by one year, so the loan was for three years.

Lu Yongqiang has been focusing his main energy on the license plate issue recently. Now that he has the loan and has discussed the details with the foreigner Joyce, everything is ready and he is just waiting for the auction to begin.

After everything was ready, Lu Yongqiang became idle. It had been two or three days and he had nothing to do. He had been staying at home for two days. During these two days, Lu Yongqiang had not left the villa. He was either playing games with Dadong, Dabao and others, or lying on the sofa watching TV.

Lu Yongqiang was timid and stayed at home, which caused Dong Si and Gangsheng to misunderstand. They thought that Lu Yongqiang was not feeling well. Lu Yongqiang explained for a long time, but the two women didn't believe him.

"A Qiang, are you sure you're okay? If you have any unspeakable secrets, you must not lie to me and Gang Sheng, or you'll be in trouble."

Seeing the suspicion on Dong Si's face, Lu Yongqiang said unhappily, "I really have nothing to do recently, so I decided to lie down at home for a few days. You really want me to admit that I have some disease, right?"

Dong thought for a moment and said, "Since you have nothing to do, why don't you come with me to the charity dinner tonight?"

Without even thinking, Lu Yongqiang shook his head and said, "No, I won't go to that damn charity dinner. If I go, I'll just be asked to donate, but the money I donated won't reach the people who really need it. Instead, it will make the people in the charity foundation rich.

This kind of dinner party is the most boring. Instead of attending it, I would rather stay home and watch TV series."

Dong Si said, "This charity dinner is hosted by the Shaw Brothers Foundation. It's more like a charity auction than a charity dinner. Many of Shaw Brothers' popular stars will be auctioning off their personal belongings, and all proceeds will be used to support education and medical causes.

The Shaw Foundation has done a lot of real charity work. You can't generalize and think that all charitable foundations don't do good things."

After Dong Si finished speaking, Lu Yongqiang still shook his head and refused.

Seeing Lu Yongqiang shaking his head, Dong Si actually said seductively, "There are many popular stars attending tonight's dinner. There will be so many beautiful women. Are you sure you don't want to go and take a look?"

Lu Yongqiang still shook his head. He was not a fan of celebrities in his previous life, nor was he a fan of celebrities in this life. Although those actresses were beautiful, they did not have much appeal to Lu Yongqiang.

Seeing that Lu Yongqiang still shook his head and refused, Dong Si hesitated for a moment and said, "Gangsheng said he hasn't been to the bar for a long time. You should accompany Gangsheng to the bar tonight." While speaking, Dong Si also gave Gangsheng a wink.

Gangsheng and Dong Si cooperated well. After Dong Si finished speaking, Gangsheng immediately hugged Lu Yongqiang's arm and said, "I heard that there's a bar in Causeway Bay that's very popular recently. They're doing a couple's tacit understanding challenge. The winner every night can not only get all the bills for free at the bar, but also get a mysterious grand prize.

I've wanted to go play for a long time, but I was afraid it would interfere with your work. Now that you have nothing to do, let's go participate in the challenge today and win the mysterious grand prize."

Seeing that Gangsheng, the homebody, actually offered to go to the bar because she was worried about him, Lu Yongqiang finally nodded and agreed.

In the evening, Lu Yongqiang took Hong Kong students to the bar where the challenge game was played.

When he arrived at the door of the bar, Lu Yongqiang discovered that the owner of the bar was actually Zhang Shun.

After Zhang Shun transferred from Lu Yongqiang to Fatty Li, Lu Yongqiang and Zhang Shun had little interaction. When they met, they would just say hello at most, and they rarely got together to chat.

Speaking of which, Zhang Shun's development under Fatty Li was quite good, and his power was comparable to that of Da Fei who was previously in Lantian. He had almost two thousand men under him. Now the area from North Point to Taikoo Town was basically all Zhang Shun's territory.

To be honest, Zhang Shun is more like the boss of the North Point Gang than Fatty Lai. No matter the size of the territory, the number of subordinates, or the prestige in the underworld, Zhang Shun is now slightly better than Fatty Lai.

The relationship between Zhang Shun and Fatty Li now is a bit like that between Lu Yongqiang and Dinosaur back then. Although they are from the same gang, they each take care of their own business and no one can control the others.

Of course, Fat Li is a better person than a dinosaur. Fat Li’s interest is making money, and he doesn’t care much about power.

As long as Zhang Shun does not hinder him from making money, Fatty Li will not cause trouble for Zhang Shun, and will even take the initiative to show goodwill to Zhang Shun.

As he had few subordinates and couldn't even take care of his own territory, Fatty Li simply left the territory to Zhang Shun.

In order to save money, this guy forced Da Fei away, which seriously damaged the strength of the North Point Gang. If it were someone else, they would definitely recruit a lot of people, but Fatty Li didn't recruit anyone. When he had problems, he would rather ask the Blue Lantern for help than recruit his own followers.

After Zhang Shun rose to power, Fatty Li did something even more outrageous. Apart from one or two hundred trusted subordinates, he only had about a thousand ordinary brothers who were not members of the gang.

Last time, Jiang Tiansheng asked him to send someone to support Dafei, but this bastard didn't send even a trusted subordinate, but only sent ordinary brothers like this who hadn't joined the gang, and then he screwed Dafei over badly.

In Hong Kong, ordinary guys can actually be divided into two types.

One type is the ordinary younger brother who has joined the society. He is considered the bottom of the society. This kind of younger brother needs the society to find a livelihood for them, whether it is as a parking boy or a waiter. The society must arrange a job for them to support themselves.

The second type is those who are accepted as subordinates by the boss verbally, but are not formally allowed to join the gang and are not listed on the roster. These people are considered to be the gang's peripheral minions.

The community generally doesn't care about their life or death, and whether they can have food to eat depends entirely on themselves.

Most of Fatty Li's followers now are this kind of subordinates. This kind of subordinates basically have no loyalty. They may be your subordinates today, but may follow someone else tomorrow.

Fatty Li sending this kind of person to support Da Fei was completely deceptive. To some extent, this kind of person was even less reliable than the paid Blue Lanterns. At least the Blue Lanterns were paid to do the job, so whether they would put in the effort or not was hard to say, but they definitely wouldn't rebel. But with these ordinary, uninitiated members, it was hard to say. If the enemy team became stronger, they might turn their guns on them immediately.

Fatty Lai was actually quite powerful when he was young. He was considered to be both civil and military. Not only was he good at fighting, he also had a good business sense. That's why he became the boss of North Point.

But now Fatty Li is old and has become less courageous, and is only focused on making money.

In fact, a few years ago, Fat Lai still had some ambition, but too many things have happened in Hung Hing in recent years, and too many people have died.

First, Big B was killed, then Brother Ji was seriously injured, then Liang Kun and Greyhound died. When the society clashed with the Triple Gang, Fatty Li was on the verge of death and was almost killed by the Triple Gang's killers.

These things directly destroyed Fei Lao Li's spirit. In the past two years, Fei Lao Li has been preparing a way out for himself, hoping to get away with it safely.

And Zhang Shun might be the escape route that Fatty Li prepared for himself.

This year, Fatty Lai handed over most of the North Point gang's territory to Zhang Shun, and he only ran his own business, such as magazines, printing houses, and chess and card rooms.

After Liang Kun was killed, Liang Kun's Qiankun Film and Television was taken over by Jiang Tiansheng, but many people in this company were poached by Fatty Li.

At the beginning, Fat Lao Li was afraid that Jiang Tiansheng would be unhappy, so after poaching him, he could only shoot pornographic films secretly. But later, seeing that Jiang Tiansheng didn't mind, Fat Lao Li simply set up a Fat Li Film and Television Production Company.

Now, Fat Lao Li’s film and television production company not only produces pornographic films, but also invests in the production of two TV series and a movie.

Although the TV series and movies did not make much splash, the pornographic films made several big-breasted women famous, and Fat Guy Li was very extravagant. Any actress with some fame under his management was basically used as a tool to make money by Fat Guy Li. This guy is now gradually becoming a pimp.

He first used filming to promote people, and after they became famous, Fat Lao Li introduced them to those big bosses, and the price of spending a night with them was almost fixed.

If someone can please the big bosses and be taken as a mistress by them, they only need to pay Fatty Li a penalty for breach of contract and Fatty Li will release them immediately.

In the past two years, thanks to the film and television company, Fat Li not only made a lot of money, but also revitalized his magazine and printing factory. After all, the pornographic magazines shot by the little-known girls are much more popular than before.

Fatty Li was only interested in making money, so he left all the affairs of the gang to Zhang Shun, and from time to time he announced that Zhang Shun was his successor, saying that when he retired, Zhang Shun would be the leader of the North Point Gang.

Fatty Li used this move of retreating to advance, and directly hit Zhang Shun on the weak spot.

Zhang Shun is a loyal person. Loyalty and righteousness are the foundation of Zhang Shun's life. The more trust Fatty Li shows in Zhang Shun, the less likely Zhang Shun will take action against Fatty Li, otherwise his reputation will be ruined.

Fatty Li also spread the word that Zhang Shun was his successor, and if Fatty Li ever got into trouble, Zhang Shun would have to help.
