Hong Kong Variety Show: The Development Notes of a Boss

Chen Yao took a sip of tea from his cup, then coughed lightly and said to Dong Quan, "Uncle Quan, although I understand your concern for Aqiang, this is a very turbulent time. You should know the importance of the Red Stick in a gang. Are you sure letting Aqiang be the Red Stick will benefit him, not harm him? If he lacks the ability, something bad will happen. There are many people who want to step on others to get to the top."

Dong Quan certainly knew what Chen Yao said, but there was nothing he could do. Dinosaur had a very hot temper and had no respect for him at all. If Dinosaur came to power, it would not be long before he would have no place to stand in the Tuen Mun Hall and would definitely be sidelined by Dinosaur.

Only by supporting one person to check and balance the dinosaurs would it be in his best interest and allow him to stay in the Tuen Mun Hall for a few more years.

After Chen Yao finished speaking, Dong Quan started to play dumb again. He said, "Ayao, don't underestimate our Aqiang. He is also a veteran. I believe he can be a good Red Stick in Tuen Mun."

Seeing that Dong Quan was holding on tightly and refused to let go, Dinosaur wanted to interrupt again, but before Dinosaur could open his mouth, Chen Yao glared at Dinosaur fiercely this time.

Chen Yao first glared at Dinosaur, then looked at the people in the room. He said to the people sitting on the sofa, "Uncle Hai, Uncle Qi, Uncle Liu, Uncle Kui, you are the elders of the Tuen Mun Tong, and you are also qualified to recommend candidates for the Tong's Red Stick. I wonder who you would like to be the Tong's Red Stick?"

Although these people are the elders of the gang, they have not been involved in anything for many years. No matter what happens, they generally don't speak out.

Just when Lu Yongqiang thought that these few people would not express their opinions this time as before, he didn't expect that they actually spoke up, and the four of them actually split into two factions.

Two of them spoke out in support of the dinosaurs, and two actually spoke out in support of Lu Yongqiang.

These four old men are quite interesting. They just expressed their opinions, but they actually had an argument and their faces were red. At first, they were just arguing about Lu Yongqiang and Dinosaur, but slowly the situation changed. I don’t know who was the first to bring up the past, and then they started to say, "If you bring up my past, I will dig up your ancestors' graves."

Lu Yongqiang sat next to a few old men. Seeing that they were arguing more and more excitedly, he was afraid that innocent people would be hurt, so he moved his bench to the side and watched the fun with relish. Sometimes when he heard gossip that he didn't know before, he would smile with interest.

Chen Yao was also familiar with the elders of the Tuen Mun Gang and knew that they usually did not take care of things, so he found two of them in advance and asked them to speak up in support of Dinosaur. He originally thought that this would be foolproof, but now it seems that Dong Quan was well prepared and he should have bribed two of them.

One side had two people supporting it, and the situation was at a stalemate again. Chen Yao's face looked a little ugly. At this moment, he saw Lu Yongqiang actually watching the quarrel between several old men with a smile on his face, and the anger in his heart suddenly erupted.

Chen Yao said to Lu Yongqiang, "Ah Qiang, right? Since you're a veteran of the society, you should know what the red sticks represent. Do you think you have what it takes to be a red stick in the Tuen Mun community?"

Lu Yongqiang was watching the show with great interest. He had no idea that Chen Yao would suddenly call his name. He was a little confused and was stunned for almost a minute before he said, "Hmm! Brother Yao, are you mistaken? I never said I wanted to be the Red Stick of the Tuen Mun Tong. And don't you guys have the final say on the selection of the Red Stick? Do you think you can listen to me? If I say I have the ability, you will choose me?"

Lu Yongqiang really didn't want to compete with Dinosaur from the bottom of his heart, but when you are in the underworld, you have no choice. In this underworld, reputation is very important. If Lu Yongqiang dares to admit that he is not capable of being a big shot, then his subordinates will probably lose their morale immediately, and no one will be willing to follow him in the future.

If all the younger brothers are gone, then the current position will be lost, and the food street will probably be handed over to others.

So Lu Yongqiang can lose to the dinosaur, but he cannot retreat voluntarily.

After being gently rebuked by Lu Yongqiang, Chen Yao's face turned even uglier. He said, "Aqiang, there are some things you can't do with your strength. There are many bad guys who want to step on others to get to the top. Don't lose your life for the sake of face. It's not worth it."

Hearing what Chen Yao said, Lu Yongqiang's face turned a little ugly. He heard the threat in Chen Yao's words. The bad guys who wanted to step on others to get to the top were sometimes real bad guys, but sometimes they might not be. They might also be killers sent by others.

After spending half a year in this chaotic port city, Lu Yongqiang came to a conclusion: when someone threatens you, you must not back down. Otherwise, others will not stop causing trouble for you just because you back down. Instead, they will bully you even more because you back down.

After Chen Yao finished speaking, Lu Yongqiang said in a cold voice: "Brother Yao, for a bad boy like me, if I want to make it in the society, I will be risking my life every day.

Originally! In my mind, Brother Dinosaur is the best candidate for the position of Red Stick of Tuen Mun Tongkou, but now that Brother Yao has said so, I really want to try this position. Maybe I am not much worse than Brother Dinosaur. "

After hearing Lu Yongqiang's remarks, Chen Yao's expression turned extremely gloomy. He glared at Lu Yongqiang fiercely and sneered, "Well, very good! Very good! I didn't expect Ah Qiang to be such a unique guy. Maybe I was a little harsh just now. I hope Ah Qiang can get what he wants and successfully take the throne of the Red Stick of Tuen Mun Hall."

After Chen Yao finished explaining his situation to Lu Yongqiang, he turned his gaze to Dong Quan and said, "Uncle Quan, since Aqiang is so confident, let's give him a chance to prove himself. If there's a conflict with Dongxing this time, let Aqiang handle it."

As long as he doesn't bring shame to our Hongxing, I have no objection to letting Ah Qiang be the Red Stick of the Tuen Mun Tong."

Hearing Chen Yao say this, Lu Yongqiang's face instantly became extremely gloomy, as if water could drip out of it. He never thought that Chen Yao would be so shameless as to dig such a huge pit for him!

Just how many people does Lu Yongqiang have under his wing? A careful count reveals only a mere hundred or so. And that includes not only the horsemen who tout customers, the street vendors in the snack street, but also the loan sharks. Faced with this situation, if they were to go head-to-head with those tough guys from Dongxing, they'd probably run away faster than anyone else!

Putting these people aside, the number of people who truly dared to fight to the death under Lu Yongqiang was actually less than thirty. With such a small number of people, how could they compete with the powerful Dongxing?

In terms of strength, Lu Yongqiang was clearly at a disadvantage; and when it came to reputation and prestige, he couldn't even begin to compare. Putting aside the comparisons to the renowned "Five Tigers" of East Star, even a single Red Stick from any of East Star's branches would be far more famous than Lu Yongqiang.

There's no doubt Lu Yongqiang wasn't completely helpless. After all, this was the New Territories, and Tuen Mun was the stronghold of the Lu family, a prominent gentry clan. If Lu Yongqiang could spare millions, or even tens of millions, he could certainly muster thousands of Lu family members. While still a gap compared to East Star, East Star would certainly have to weigh the pros and cons and consider whether a fight was worthwhile.

However, the reality was harsh. Lu Yongqiang was short of funds, and Dong Quan was unlikely to provide such substantial support. The idea of transferring personnel from the Lu family was likely nothing more than wishful thinking.

After Chen Yao finished speaking, Lu Yongqiang's face was gloomy, but he was no fool. He didn't scold Chen Yao, but instead looked at Dong Quan, anticipating what the cunning old fox would say. If Dong Quan was interested in helping, he could easily reject Chen Yao's proposal.

Unfortunately, things went against his wishes. Dong Quan did not regard Lu Yongqiang as his own family at all. He only regarded him as a chess piece that could be discarded at will.

Under the gaze of the crowd, Dong Quan said in a deep voice: "Ayao's proposal is not bad. If there is a conflict with Dongxing this time, let Aqiang try it."

With Dong Quan's words, the discussion came to a conclusion. Chen Yao, furious, left with Dinosaur. The four elders followed suit, leaving only Dong Quan, Lu Yongqiang, and Dong Si in the meeting room.

Before Lu Yongqiang could speak, Dong Quan said, "Aqiang, Godfather has fought for this opportunity for you, but whether you can seize it depends on you." After that, Dong Quan patted Lu Yongqiang on the shoulder and continued, "Don't let me, Godfather, down, or you know the outcome!"

Dong Quan finished speaking, and without waiting for Lu Yongqiang's response, he walked out of the conference room with Dong Si's support. As he reached the door, Dong Quan seemed to remember something, turned around and glanced at Lu Yongqiang. "Ah Qiang, you've been managing the loan sharking company for six months, but the profits have been declining month by month. It seems you're really not suited to this industry. Xiao Si has just returned from abroad and has nothing else to do. You should hand over the loan sharking company to her."

As soon as Dong Quan finished speaking, he left without looking back.

Looking at the backs of Dong Quan and Dong Si as they left, Lu Yongqiang's angry expression disappeared and a sneer appeared on his face. It seems that both Chen Yao and Dong Quan think they have him in their hands?

Lu Yongqiang sneered a few times, then pretended to be angry and left the meeting room.

When they reached the living room door, Dadong saw Lu Yongqiang's face full of anger and asked, "Brother, what's wrong? Did someone bully you?"

Lu Yongqiang ignored Dadong and strode away. When he walked outside the villa and got into the car, Lu Yongqiang burst out laughing.

Seeing Lu Yongqiang's eyes sometimes bulging with anger, and sometimes beaming with joy, Dadong couldn't help but feel very confused. He scratched his head and asked doubtfully, "Brother, what's wrong with you? Did something good happen to you that made you so happy?"

Hearing Dadong's question, Lu Yongqiang quickly put away the smile on his face, but did not respond to Dadong's question. He just urged: "Why are you talking so much nonsense? Drive home quickly!" Seeing that Lu Yongqiang was unwilling to say more, Dadong tactfully shut up and stopped asking questions. He started the car and drove away.

At the same time, just as Lu Yongqiang was about to leave the villa, Dong Quan was discussing Lu Yongqiang with Dong Si in his study. Dong Quan was the first to break the silence, asking, "Xiao Si, you've also dealt with Lu Yongqiang today. In your opinion, has he changed? He used to be nothing but flatterer, all talk and no action. Now, it seems he's obedient to me, but after careful consideration, I feel he's not completely obedient. He's like a cunning little fox! I'm even beginning to suspect he's been playing dirty all along, deliberately putting on an act for us!"

Although Lu Yongqiang had inherited the memories of his original self, his core was still a different one. He had tried his best to imitate his original self's speech and actions, but there were still too many flaws, which aroused Dong Quan's suspicion. Another important point was that Lu Yongqiang had a clearer mindset than his original self. He would never do something like forcing a woman of good character into prostitution.

The original body followed the former boss Tyrannosaurus. It cannot be said that he did all the bad things, but he was really not a good person. In order to collect debts, he went to other people's homes to smash, loot and rob, and finally forced people to jump off the building and commit suicide, leaving behind orphans and widows at home.

He even relied on his handsome looks to cheat people out of money and sex, and almost tricked them into working as a hostess in a nightclub. Fortunately, Lu Yongqiang traveled through time and this plan was averted.

In the first one or two months after Lu Yongqiang crossed over, he couldn't sleep all night long just thinking about the bad things his original body had done. In order to make himself feel better, Lu Yongqiang secretly gave a lot of money to the orphan and widow's family, and secretly returned the money that his original body had cheated women with.

Lu Yongqiang thought he was keeping a low profile, but Dong Quan had been sending people to secretly watch him, and Dong Quan knew basically everything about these things.

Dong Si was sitting opposite Dong Quan, busy making tea. After hearing what Dong Quan said, he stopped what he was doing, thought for a moment and said, "Godfather, although I only interacted with Aqiang for a while today, I did find that he has changed a lot and is completely different from before.

In the past, whenever he saw me, the burning look in his eyes could be felt by anyone. But when we met today, the burning look in his eyes was gone, and instead there was a deep sense of wariness and vigilance.

Godfather, you said Lu Yongqiang is acting, that shouldn't be the case. Even if Lu Yongqiang is a movie emperor, it is impossible for him to act for several years and act 24 hours a day.

I wonder if Lu Yongqiang has a twin brother. The Lu Yongqiang of today is not the original Lu Yongqiang, but his twin brother."

After Dong Si finished speaking, Dong Quan fell into deep thought. After a while, Dong Quan instructed: "Xiao Si, since you have this suspicion, then you should arrange for someone to investigate thoroughly... If the current Lu Yongqiang is not the original Lu Yongqiang, then..." Dong Quan said, making a gesture of wiping his neck.

At this time, Dong Si was holding up the teacup to drink tea. When he saw Dong Quan's action, he heard a snap and the teacup in Dong Si's hand was crushed by Dong Si's fingers.
