Hong Kong General: Hongxing 49 Zai, step on Liang Kun to get a job

Zhou Shengpeng tapped the table with the back of his fingers holding the cigarette.

In fact, this was just an excuse he made.

It was Big D who told the conditions to others early on.

It is necessary to pay a deposit so that we can better manage and restrain them.

Just like Taobao in later generations, it did not require any deposit at the beginning. You could just register an account and open a store to sell goods.

When the platform is established and wants to become bigger and stronger, it will have to restrict merchants, and they must pay a deposit, and there will be more requirements.

Now, the arcade business has been made popular by him and Big D. If others want to join in, they have to increase their investment.

When Big D heard Zhou Shengpeng's recognition of him, he raised his head, turned his nose towards everyone, and his face was full of pride.

Although everyone was unhappy, what the other person said made sense.

What is the relationship between Da D and Zhou Shengpeng? What is the relationship between them and Zhou Shengpeng?

Why do you want to take advantage of the preferential treatment given by others?

"Okay, if you have any requests, just state them all at once."

Smiling Tiger was the first to understand the truth, so he said.

Zhou Shengpeng glanced at the crowd. Although their faces were all dark, no one stood up to complain. Then he continued, "I'll keep this three million deposit. If you behave yourself, I'll return it in full if you ever want to leave."

"After obtaining the distribution rights, there is only one thing: the venue must be clean and no loose powder is allowed. This is the same for everyone."

Zhou Shengpeng paused and continued:

"I know that many of the big brothers here have a lot of stuff on hand. The arcade is such a place that is easy to break up. It would be a shame if they didn't sell off their fans."

"But I have no control over how you guys play and spread out in other places. Since you've taken my Zhou Shengpeng's distribution rights, you're doing business in my arcade."

"Then you have to follow my rules."

"Anyone found to have violated the rules will be fined one million yuan for the first violation, two million yuan for the second violation, and the third violation will result in the entire fine being deducted and the arcade's distribution rights revoked."

"If the police catch you, you will take full responsibility."

Zhou Shengpeng took a sip of tea as he spoke, then added, "Everyone knows that I, Zhou Shengpeng, and D are sworn enemies."

"I don't want to get involved in this kind of business where you can make money but not live to spend it."

"I don't want to make money and then end up in Stanley jail."

"Eating hairy crabs outside is more delicious than eating red grouper."

Everyone already knew from Big D that arcades cannot sell goods in bulk.

Originally, everyone was still holding on to a lucky mentality.

After they were ready to acquire the distribution rights, they secretly started to promote their products to fans, and Zhou Shengpeng couldn't possibly get involved in their business.

But now that I’ve paid a three million deposit, it’s different.

I originally hoped to make money by opening an arcade.

Now we have to invest 10 million in franchise fees and 3 million in deposit, and if the distribution rights are confiscated due to bulk cargo.

That would be a huge loss.

With this fear in mind, no one wanted to take any risks.

Tietou Chen from the Number Gang sighed in his heart: "He looks so young, but I didn't expect him to be so principled."

Asking everyone to do things based on trust and bottom line is simply impossible. How can a dwarf mule have the ability to keep his word and have a bottom line?

As for the bottom line, in the eyes of the dwarf mule, there is no lowest, only lower.

But money is different. Money can be used to restrain everyone, and no one can go against money.

Crow said impatiently, "The arcade franchise is yours. You're the boss, so whatever you say goes."

"I have no objection to this. Sign the contract."

Prince Hongtai was somewhat annoyed by Zhou Shengpeng's arrogance and at this moment just wanted to sign the contract and leave.

"Greyhound, take out the contract."

Greyhound took out a stack of documents from his briefcase. This was the standard contract that he and lawyer Zhang Zhirong had drafted long ago.

He gave one copy to everyone.

Then a supplementary agreement was given to Big D separately.

"Damn, I have a contract too?"

Big D picked it up and looked at it in confusion.

The supplementary agreement adds a clause:

Anyone who holds the distribution rights for Global Entertainment Arcade has the obligation to maintain the stability and peace of Global Entertainment.

If any other company or individual that does not hold the business distribution rights infringes upon the interests of Universal Entertainment, we must work together to hold the party that infringed the interests accountable.

The supplementary agreement contains a series of clauses written in a very formal manner.

Although Big D is not well educated, he understands the basic meaning.

Translated into one sentence, whoever offends the interests of Universal Entertainment will be beaten together by everyone.

"Brother Peng, even if you don't sign the supplementary agreement, I will still stand by you. We are half-brothers after all."

"Don't even think about someone daring to harm Universal Entertainment. As long as it's against you, I, Big D, will donate money and strength to help you beat him down."

Big D casually signed his crooked real name on the supplementary agreement.

Then he threw the supplementary agreement in front of Greyhound and said carelessly.

Zhou Shengpeng's mouth twitched slightly. "Fuck, Big D really treats me like a brother."

Zhou Shengpeng was quite surprised that such an arrogant person had no objection to the supplementary agreement and signed it directly.

Big D's carefree attitude made the bosses present look even uglier.

Everyone felt depressed.

Signing Zhou Shengpeng's contract means joining Universal Entertainment. Anyone who is detrimental to Universal Entertainment will be attacked by the group.

This is no different from letting them join the society in disguise.

Is Zhou Shengpeng planning to establish a new sect or start a new group to include them all?

This ambition is too big.

I have seen arrogant people, but I have never seen anyone so arrogant.

Everyone here is a leader in the society. After all these years, this is the first time I have seen anyone dare to do this.

I really don’t know if it was Jesus who gave Zhou Shengpeng the confidence.

Damn, if Zhou Shengpeng really succeeds, then Hong Kong Island will have a new organization.

Under the banner of Universal Entertainment, its personnel are scattered across various societies.

Once there is a little disturbance, everyone will attack us. It’s unbearable to think about it.

But no matter how hard it is, who can accept this?

"It's true that monopolizing an exclusive business is profitable. A 10 million yuan franchise fee, 30% profit, no fans allowed to leave, and even a new 3 million yuan deposit clause are all acceptable to us."

"It's not appropriate for us to join and be under the management of Universal Entertainment."

Smiling Tiger started a conversation by throwing out some ideas.

"Smiling Tiger, you finally said something human."

"Kunpeng, you are a bit too ambitious. You haven't even grown all your hair yet, but you want to imitate others and establish a sect. Except for the last supplementary agreement, I can sign this contract immediately."

After all, Tietou Chen is the boss of a large group of people in the Number Gang.

He didn't say anything before because he could accept other conditions. After all, Zhou Shengpeng's business is unique.

But he couldn't accept the bundling of their consumption.

"That's right, Kunpeng, you've been very popular recently, and your career is booming. It's a bit exaggerated, but we are not ordinary people either."

"It would be meaningless if you came up with a supplementary agreement."

"What are you doing? Opening an incense hall and recruiting followers?"

"With the status of people like us, can you eat enough of us? Aren't you afraid of dying of stuffiness?"

Prince Hongtai added defiantly.

Damn it, he is the one waiting to inherit Hongtai and become the leader, but he is teaming up with Kunpeng and listening to Universal Entertainment. What the hell is going on?

His pride would not allow him to sign such an outrageous contract.

Zhou Shengpeng flicked the ash from his cigarette calmly, leaned back on the stool, and gently shook his head with the swaying of the cabin.

"Brothers, you've all been in the underworld for so many years, and you've all eaten powder kegs. Why are you so angry?"

"It's good for everyone to raise opinions, but I can also choose not to accept them."

"Everyone knows that arcades make quick money."

"You don't know how many societies and people in Hong Kong Island have been eyeing this big pie, trying to contact me and want to get the distribution rights at any price."

"According to what my men have heard, the New Big Four, the Three Alliances, the United Ying Society, the Dong'an Society, and many other societies are trying to get involved."

"Even if we ignore all that, Hung Hing alone has territories in all eighteen districts of Hong Kong Island. If the distribution rights were delegated to us, we could do it ourselves..."

"According to the regional protection, will there be any soup for those who enter later?"

Zhou Shengpeng raised his eyebrows and glanced at everyone sharply:

"If it weren't for my half-brother, Big D, I wouldn't be here today."

"Once the distribution rights have been divided among the people from other Hung Hing districts, I can only say sorry if they want to cooperate again."

"The market is so small, first come first served, everyone should think carefully."

As soon as Zhou Shengpeng finished speaking, you could hear a pin drop on the boat, and the only sound that could be heard was the waves hitting the cabin.

"Damn it, no wonder this idiot is so arrogant. It turns out he's holding the cards of Hongxing, the Three Alliances, the New Big Four, and the leaders of the various Hongxing gangs."

"District 18, one big district, 10 million plus the deposit is 200-300 million. Damn, there's no way to make money this fast."

"Pounce on your mother, you have such a big appetite, aren't you afraid of choking to death?"

The smiling tiger had a smile on his face, but he was cursing in his heart while quickly calculating.

The crow also cursed in his heart: "Diao, there are people in the world who are more arrogant than me, the crow."

Changle Feihong remained silent.

Their Changle is a small club, Zhou Shengpeng is well-known, and has the backing of the big tree of Hongxing.

If Changle joins Universal Entertainment and works together, it would actually be a good choice.

What's more, the arcade business is so profitable, there is no need to hesitate.

As long as there is money to be made, it doesn't matter if he joins Universal Entertainment or even becomes a Christian pastor.

Apart from the fact that the franchise fee of 10 million and the deposit of 3 million are a bit high, he has no other objections.

"I agree to join Universal Entertainment."

After much deliberation, Changle Feihong was the first to sign the contract, put his fingerprint on it, and then pushed the contract to Greyhound.

"I agree."

Smiling Tiger gritted his teeth and agreed.

Face is nothing. If you have money, you have face.

If you have money, people will call you handsome. If you don’t have money, people will call you poor.

"I have no opinion."

Tietou Chen also signed the contract.

Since everyone has signed, if you miss this opportunity, you will miss that opportunity too.

If anyone touches Universal Entertainment's cake, everyone will gang up on him, although this is a disguised way of making them join Zhou Shengpeng's team.

But at the same time, it also protects its own interests.

Even though it's a little uncomfortable, considering the money, this little discomfort is nothing.

When Prince Hongtai saw that everyone had signed, even the arrogant Crow did not say a word, he certainly did not want to miss the opportunity and lose face in front of his father.

"Welcome everyone to join the Universal Entertainment family."

"Now that everyone has signed, before midnight tomorrow morning, bring 10 million in franchise fees and a 3 million deposit to the headquarters to get your distribution license."

"Just contact my subordinate Jimmy for the specific matters."

Zhou Shengpeng clapped his hands, stood up, and smoothed out the wrinkles on his suit jacket.

Greyhound and Airplane quickly gathered the contracts together.

"Brother D, thank you for your hospitality tonight. I'll treat you next time at Yunjiantian. Let's have a great time."

Zhou Shengpeng watched Greyhound and Airplane put away the contract, patted Big D on the shoulder, and left in a leisurely manner.

When everyone saw him leave, they suddenly felt that the invisible pressure disappeared.

I don't know where this guy, at such a young age, gets so much pressure from.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
