Hong Kong Variety Show: The Development Notes of a Boss

Chapter 368: Exchange of Numbers and Insights

Guanchai Ba's plan was actually somewhat different from what Lu Yongqiang had expected. According to Guanchai Ba's plan, after Baoqiang and his gang took his wife away at the intersection, they would stop the car halfway and let his wife get on a helicopter. At that time, he would take his wife away by helicopter first, while Baoqiang and his gang would continue to drive the car to attract the attention of the police. Only after he arranged to leave would Baoqiang and his gang abandon the car and flee.

But the plan went wrong at the very beginning. His wife did not get into Bao Qiang and his friends' car, but was taken away by Luo Tianhong.

The situation was tense at the time. Bao Qiang and his gang were busy exchanging fire with the police and had no time to inform Guan Caiba of the situation. By the time Guan Caiba realized something was wrong, Luo Tianhong had already driven away.

Afterwards, Guanchaiba wanted to call Luo Tianhong, but the call was unreachable. At this time, Guanchaiba vaguely realized that the situation was not good. But it was useless to feel bad. He wanted to find Luo Tianhong but couldn't find her, so he could only consider other things first.

Originally, Bao Qiang and his group were his abandoned children. As long as his wife could be rescued, he would not care about the life and death of Bao Qiang and his group. But in the current situation, his wife has not been rescued yet. If something happens to several of his confidants again, he will have no one to use.

So when Guanchaiba saw that Baoqiang and his gang were being caught by the police, he immediately ordered someone to send a helicopter to rescue them.

It's just that Guanchaiba had some bad luck, because he let Baoqiang and his gang get on the helicopter on the street, where the environment was a bit complicated. When the helicopter was rising, it accidentally crashed into a building next to it, and the helicopter fell directly from the sky.

With this collision, Lu Yongqiang was completely saved. After the helicopter fell from the sky, the impact directly caused the helicopter to explode. Guan Caiba and several of his confidants had almost no chance of survival.

Now that the person is dead, there is naturally no need for Lu Yongqiang to do any follow-up work.

When Lu Yongqiang heard the news, he was stunned for a while.

At that time, he was still thinking about how to lure out the old fox Guan Caiba, but he didn't expect the final outcome to be like this.

After Guanchai Ba died, Lu Yongqiang did not stay in Malaysia for long and left the country one after another on the same day. As for Yang Jianhua and Chen Jiaju, they had to stay for a few more days as they also had to find a way to bring Guanchai Ba's wife back to China.

As for how the two men would bring people back, Lu Yongqiang did not get involved. He secretly arranged the final hiding place from Yang Jianhua. Lu Yongqiang also realized that the other party did not trust him, so he stopped interfering.

Half a month after the incident, Bingzai sent back a message saying that a leader named Shi had visited the garment factory to check out the situation. When he left, he asked Bingzai to tell Lu Yongqiang that he was welcome to return to China to invest at any time.

Although there was no specific promise, with this sentence, Lu Yongqiang's previous hard work was not in vain.

This day was the day for paying debts every month. Lu Yongqiang hadn't been to Zhongyi Hall for a few months. In the past few months, it was Duxie who went there to pay debts. Since he had nothing to do that day, Lu Yongqiang planned to go to Zhongyi Hall and sit down.

After the police cracked down severely on the gangs, the major gangs stopped fighting for territory. The Hong Kong city has been calm in recent months with nothing major happening.

Of course, it was only calm on the surface. In fact, there were undercurrents beneath the calm, like the kidnapping case planned by Bai Tou Weng, who was eventually forced to flee overseas.

After Bai Tou Weng ran away, Luotuo took the opportunity to purge many of Bai Tou Weng's accomplices. Except for Coke and Situ Haonan who were strong enough, all other people in Bai Tou Weng's faction were purged, and the bosses of several branch gangs disappeared inexplicably.

There is also Wuliang from Hung Hing, who has been very active recently and has been very close to Sun Kee. The two parties jointly opened a nightclub in Sai Wan. I heard that Jiang Sheng from Sun Kee invested the money and Wuliang took over the management.

Recently, there have been rumors that Wulin is trying to block Xinji, and the rumors are so convincing that it doesn't seem to be false.

After Wuliang's former confidant Greyhound met with trouble in Causeway Bay, he has not had a single capable person under his command in recent years.

Wuliang's territory is in Sai Wan, the old nest of Xin Ji. Wuliang has not had an easy time there this year and is suppressed by Xin Ji.

To make matters worse, because of the problems with Xinji, many of his businesses could not be operated. Recently, the police have been cracking down, and Wuliang has suffered heavy losses. A small casino and several casinos under his control were all raided by the police. Not only were many of his subordinates arrested, but Wuliang was also implicated in the end. Although he was not sentenced in the end, I heard that he spent a lot of money to build connections.

Life is not easy for Wuliang, so naturally he has to find the leader Jiang Tiansheng for help. To be honest, he is also a member of Jiang Tiansheng's faction.

But ever since Wuliang started to covet the territory in Causeway Bay, there has been a rift between him and Jiang Tiansheng. Now that he is in trouble, it is good enough that Jiang Tiansheng does not add insult to injury. How could he possibly help him?

Therefore, Lu Yongqiang did not think that the rumor about the unscrupulous transfer of the Xinji was false. Maybe the old man really had such an idea.

Lu Yongqiang arrived at Zhongyi Hall not too late, but he was not the first either. When he arrived, quite a few people had already arrived, including four of the thirteen leaders.

The four people are Ma Wangjian, the prince, Xiyan, and Fatty Li.

Lu Yongqiang has the best relationship with Xiyan, so he naturally stays close to Xiyan.

"Brother Xiyan, we haven't seen each other for a while. I heard that you've been doing very well in the mainland recently and are busy building an industrial park. I wonder if I can get a piece of the pie?"

As he spoke, Lu Yongqiang pulled out a chair next to Xiyan and sat down on it.

He looked Lu Yongqiang up and down with his eyes and said, "Your business is bigger than mine now, and you still care about my little tricks?"

"Brother, what are you talking about? I heard that your industrial park covers tens of thousands of acres and has an investment of over 1 billion yuan. Is this just a small thing?"

Now Lu Yongqiang is 100% sure that Xiyan must have connections in China. In the past two years, Xiyan has won over many wealthy people in Hong Kong and organized them to invest in China. According to the information obtained by Shouhou, Xiyan has already invested in an electronics factory and a garment factory there, and has also acquired shares in a state-owned enterprise there. He has also donated a lot of money to charity, built more than ten primary schools in the mountainous area, and recently invested in an industrial park there.

If you count them carefully, Xiyan has invested billions in China in just over a year. Although this money is not Xiyan's, if Xiyan has no connections, why would others invest so much money in him...

Lu Yongqiang and Xiyan were chatting over there, and somehow they provoked the fat guy Li across the street. He said sarcastically, "Handsome Qiang, I heard that your catering company has been targeted by a large foreign capital. They're ready to take advantage of you, and you're still thinking about investing in Xiyan? You're really bold."

Although Fatty Li's tone wasn't very good, he didn't say anything he shouldn't have said, so Lu Yongqiang didn't bother with him. He just smiled and said, "It's because someone is targeting my catering company, so I want to find a new way to make money."

As he spoke, Lu Yongqiang sighed in a pretentious manner, and then continued, "I originally planned to make the catering company a listed company, but I didn't expect to attract large foreign capital. Now I can only sell the catering company in a package. The situation is not too bad.

According to the quote those foreigners gave me, my catering company is valued at US$280 million, which is about two billion Hong Kong dollars. So, it's not a loss at all, but a small profit."

"Brother Xiyan, if the restaurant company is really acquired, I'll have a few hundred million left after paying off the bank debt. If you have any good projects, don't forget me. We're all brothers in the same sect. If there's a way to make money, why not give it to me instead of giving it to others?"

Fatty Li originally intended to make Lu Yongqiang unhappy, but he didn't expect that after Lu Yongqiang finished speaking, he himself became unhappy.

Speaking of which, Fat Lao Li hasn't had a smooth time recently. When the police first started cracking down on various pornographic industries, Fat Lao Li's pornographic magazine was very popular for a while.

After all, many brothels and prostitutes were cleared out by the police at that time, and those perverts had nowhere to go and could only buy some pornographic magazines to satisfy their curiosity.

But not long after, a lot of pornographic magazines appeared in Hong Kong, such as "Passionate Nightlife", "One-Night Stand", and "Night Tour King".

With such fierce competition, Fatty Li’s business will naturally be affected.

There is also Fat Guy Li who uses film and television companies and magazines to make female stars famous, and then uses these female stars to make money for him. He has already created an one-stop industry.

When he was thinking about making this industry chain bigger and stronger, someone actually followed suit, and it wasn't just one person. I heard that seven or eight pimps have emerged recently.

Some even specialize in high-end business, employing a team of famous actresses from the entertainment industry. A single meal with them can cost hundreds of thousands, while a two-day outing can cost millions. Compared to this kind of high-end business, Fatty Li's is just a cheapskate.

Of course, this kind of high-end venue actually has little impact on Fei Lao Li's business. The bad thing is that some of the people who emerged also run civilian venues, and there are more than one, almost three or four. This has a huge impact. Recently, Fei Lao Li's business has dropped by at least half.

Of course, although Fat Lao Li’s business was not going well, he still made some money, just much less than before.

Maybe it was because of the setbacks in business that Fatty Li had been in a bad mood these past two days. After being rejected by Lu Yongqiang, Fatty Li went after Xiyan again.

"Handsome Qiang, you treat them as fellow disciples, but they may not recognize you as a fellow disciple. If there is a way to make money, they always take advantage of outsiders. When have they ever taken advantage of our fellow disciples in Hongxing?"
