Hong Kong Movies: The Boss's Global Empire

In a remote warehouse, gang leader Abao gathered his core members. The atmosphere was oppressive, as if the air had frozen.

"Listen up everyone! I'm not joking when I gather you all together. We have to take action against these two gangs," Ah Bao said, throwing a document on the table. "Boss, won't this lead to trouble? We already have a formidable enemy like Huo Han," a subordinate named Monkey asked hesitantly.

Ah Bao sneered, "Huo Han? I respect him, but I'm not afraid of him. I've fought him before, suffered losses, but also learned lessons. In comparison, these small gangs are nothing."

"If other gangs learn of our actions, will they cause trouble for us?" asked another member named A Fei.

A Bao glared at him fiercely and said, "If they have the guts, let them come looking for us. I'm telling you all clearly today that I won't help these small gangs deal with Huo Han. That guy is not someone we can handle. If they are stupid enough to think that I will help the evil, then they are totally wrong." 2.

The members looked at each other and finally nodded. Abao looked at them and smiled with satisfaction.

A few nights later, Abao's gang attacked the two smaller gangs, and just as he'd predicted, they easily overwhelmed them. News quickly spread to the other gangs, and they all approached Abao to inquire about the situation.

"Abao, what do you mean? Do you want to join forces to deal with Huo Han?" A message came from the mobile phone of a gang leader.

Ah Bao rolled his eyes and replied, "Don't dream. I won't cause trouble for myself. If you think you can handle Huo Han, go ahead and try."

Huo Han was sitting in his office when his cell phone rang a few times. It was a new message.

"Boss, Abao has indeed taken action against the two gangs. It seems that he has started to act." Xiaolin's message popped up.

Huo Han smiled slightly and replied with a few words: "Very good, let them continue."

Xiaolin looked at the message in confusion, then replied, "I understand."

Huo Han put down his phone and took a deep breath. He knew that A Bao was a veteran, having already sensed this during their previous fights with him.

Abao sat in his high-level office. On the table before him lay a map showing the territories of various gangs. Next to him was a heavy, old-fashioned telephone, its copper base revealing a sense of vicissitudes.

"It seems that we have to make these people fully understand the consequences of not handing over their money and weapons." Abao sneered and picked up the phone.

One by one, he called the boss of each small gang.

"Hi, Agang, it's me, Abao. I heard your gang's been making a lot of money lately, so please give us some of it as a friendly cooperation fund. We'll also need some weapons, of course. Otherwise, you know, my men are all restless, and there's no guarantee they'll cause trouble one day."

Ah Bao hung up the phone, put down the receiver, and smiled softly. He looked at his watch and saw the time was just right.

The gang leader kept his word. Early the next morning, he led his team into action. Several small gangs' strongholds were destroyed, resulting in heavy losses. The news shocked the entire underworld.

The leaders of the various small gangs knew that they were no match for A Bao if they fought alone, so they contacted Huo Han.

Huo Han frowned slightly as he looked at the various missed calls flashing on his phone screen. He could guess the purpose of these calls.

Finally, he picked up his phone and dialed one of the numbers.

"Huo Han, we need your help. Ah Bao has gone too far. If this continues, all of us will be finished!"

"Really? Then what does he want from you?" Huo Han's voice was cold.

"He demanded money and weapons, and threatened to destroy us if we didn't give them."

"So, do you think that if you ask me for help, I will deal with Abao?" Huo Han smiled.

"If you don't want the entire underworld to be unified by Abao, you'd better take action now."

Huo Han was silent for a while. "Okay, I'll consider it, but don't expect me to act easily."

After hanging up the phone, Huo Han took a long puff of cigarette and slowly exhaled.

Huo Han sat at a solid wooden table, a bronze desk lamp casting a dim light, illuminating his thin but resolute face. His phone vibrated constantly, with calls he was reluctant to answer.

"Don't pretend anymore, I know everything." Huo Han said calmly. On the other end of the phone were the bosses of several small gangs that he had summoned.

"Brother Huo, this is really a misunderstanding. We never thought of dealing with you (cffj). Abao is too rampant, and we are also victims." A gang leader explained awkwardly.

"Victim? You planned to unite and eliminate me, but Abao slapped you first, and you became victims?" Huo Han sneered.

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone. "Brother Huo, we are wrong this time. Please teach Abao a lesson."

"Oh? Now it's your turn to beg me?" Huo Han deliberately dragged out his tone.

"Yes, Brother Huo, we are willing to pay any price."

"Any price? Fine, I'm asking for a lot. First, each of your gangs must hand over half of the cash and weapons as compensation. Then, you must publicly announce in the underworld that you will obey me from now on."

"This...this is too much, Brother Huo." There was obviously panic on the other end of the phone.

"Excessive? Do you think I'll be easy to talk to compared to Abao? Since you've made your choice, you have to pay the price for it. Otherwise, don't blame me for showing mercy."

"Okay, okay, Brother Huo, we promise you. But please make sure you get rid of Abao."

"Of course." Huo Han hung up the phone and smiled lightly.

Abao was celebrating his initial victory in his territory, with his men drinking champagne with him. Suddenly, his cell phone rang.

"Hello, Abao, do you remember me?" It was Huo Han on the other end of the phone.

"Huo Han, what do you mean?"

"It's nothing serious. I just think you've been too aggressive lately and have disrupted the balance here. Do you think this will lead to good results?"

A Bao was silent for a moment, "What are you going to do?"

"Me? I won't do anything. But you'd better pray that those small gangs won't bite you back. After all, they are on my side now." Abao's heart was shocked. He knew Huo Han's strength. Instead of confronting him head-on, it would be better to take a step back temporarily.

"You win, Huo Han. But this game is far from over."

"I'll wait for you, Abao." Huo Han hung up the phone, his eyes revealing a hint of coldness. Just as Huo Han was about to light his second cigarette, the door opened and Lian Haolong walked in.

"It's lively here. As soon as you turn on the TV, you can hear all kinds of gunfights and knife fights." Lian Haolong shook his head and waved his hand to let his men close the door.

"You also know that the underworld has been in turmoil recently." Huo Han smiled bitterly and put down the cigarette.

Lian Haolong sat down. "I heard those small gangs actually came to you for help?"

"Yes, a bunch of shameless guys."

"So what are you going to do?" Lian Haolong picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"They offered some conditions, such as money and weapons, in exchange for my help in teaching Abao a lesson," Huo Han said.

"Money and weapons? Do these fools really think they can make you take action like this?" Lian Haolong sneered.

"It's not that I haven't considered it. After all, they are now the enemies of my enemies."

"Don't you think they are too shameless? They brought this upon themselves, and now they have the nerve to beg you for help." Lian Haolong scolded.

"You're right." Huo Han also felt a little helpless.

"Then don't help them, let them suffer the consequences. This way they can learn a lesson." Lian Haolong advised.

"But Abao is not someone you can easily mess with. If we don't deal with him soon, I'm afraid there will be more trouble in the future."

"Abao is quite cunning. But if you take action, it will only make those small gangs more arrogant, thinking they have you as their backer. They will definitely cause you more trouble in the future."

Huo Han was silent for a moment. "You have a point. Okay, I've made up my mind. Let them fend for themselves."

"That's more like it." Lian Haolong nodded with satisfaction.

Huo Han picked up his phone and called the group chat of the small gang leaders.

"Listen carefully, I have decided not to help you. You have to bear the consequences of your own actions."

There was an uproar on the other end of the phone, followed by wailing and begging.

"Don't contact me anymore." Huo Han hung up the phone coldly.

"What do you think they will do?" Lian Haolong asked.

"This group of people will suffer the consequences sooner or later."

Lian Haolong stood up and prepared to leave. "Then I'll go first. Come to me if you need anything."

"Okay, I will."

After Lian Haolong left, Huo Han lit his second cigarette and blew out a smoke ring.

"This world is indeed a world of the jungle." He smiled coldly, secretly thinking that no matter whether it was a small gang or Abao, they were all just fleeting clouds.

The real battlefield is still ahead.

…………

He took a drag on his cigarette and then put the butt out in the ashtray.

In a dimly lit nightclub, Huo Han sat on a plush sofa, one hand resting on a freshly filled whiskey glass. Across from him sat the leaders of various small gangs, their faces tense and their eyes shifting.

0...0

"So, you think that if you give me money and weapons, I will help you deal with Abao?" Huo Han put down the cup and looked at them calmly.

"No, Brother Huo, we are willing to offer more benefits." One of the leaders responded quickly.

Huo Han chuckled, "Okay, I can help you. But don't think that's it. You still have to accompany me to deal with Abao."

They looked at each other, then finally nodded in agreement. "Brother Huo, how much profit do you want?"

Huo Han replied leisurely, "Actually, the reward I want is very low, only 30%."

"Thirty percent? So little?" They were all a little surprised.

"Don't be too happy, this is just a premise. If we can kill Abao and his gang, I will divide up all their business and profits."
