Chapter 361: Super Fast Speed
Yang Jianhua was sent to the Thunder Security building.
People introduced by Dai Kuen Pao would naturally be treated well.
Wang Jianjun personally accompanied her and picked a suitable room for her to rest.
Yang Jianhua was very surprised:
"Is this Mr. Lin's company here?"
Wang Jianjun knew her background, so he could speak freely:
"This is one of them. You also know the Boss's identity is very complex; he is a member of the Hung Society."
"It's inevitable to deal with forces in the underworld."
"So the Boss opened this company."
"Most of the company's employees, except for a few, are from our Mainland."
"Some of them are even registered with Brother Bao."
Yang Jianhua was startled:
"Registered with Brother Bao?"
Wang Jianjun explained:
"According to the rules of our Mainland, some retired personnel are not allowed to go abroad within three years."
"Although Hong Kong is part of our Mainland, you know the actual situation. Coming here is almost like going abroad."
"Such people are the backbone of Thunder Security."
"You don't have to worry about them leaking secrets. Our Thunder Security's rules are even stricter than those of our Mainland."
"You also don't have to worry about their ideology; their ideological work was personally handled by Brother Bao."
Yang Jianhua nodded silently.
There is a regulation that personnel retired from front-line units are not allowed to go abroad within three years to prevent leakage of secrets.
However, the Mainland actually allowed such people to come under Lin Feng's wing. Lin Feng's relationship with the Mainland was deeper than she had imagined.
And it was personally handled by Dai Kuen Pao.
It completely exceeded Yang Jianhua's imagination.
"Did Brother Bao tell you about the Boss's identity?" Wang Jianjun asked casually.
"He briefly mentioned some things, but didn't go into detail. He just said that Mr. Lin is a big shot in Hong Kong," Yang Jianhua answered honestly.
"A big shot?" Wang Jianjun curled his lips.
Yang Jianhua was very perceptive:
"I've seen your file and know the background of your retirement back then. I also know that you are a trustworthy person."
"However, you seem to be quite resistant to the phrase 'big shot'?"
Wang Jianjun shrugged:
"If the Boss knew Brother Bao evaluated him like that, he would probably be unhappy."
"Why?" Yang Jianhua was very puzzled. Calling someone a big shot was a very high compliment.
Wang Jianjun said seriously:
"Every single so-called big shot in Hong Kong pretty much deserves to die."
"The Old Four Families started out selling opium, and the New Four Families started out as assistants to the Foreigners."
"You've seen the current chaos in Hong Kong; that's the Foreigners trying to forcibly seize the white gloves."
"These are the Hong Kong big shots you speak of."
"The Boss disdains associating with such people."
Before joining Lin Feng, Wang Jianjun genuinely envied these big shots.
After joining Lin Feng, he did many confidential things, even beating the Foreigner Police Chief Andrei twice, and became a core member of Lin Feng's inner circle, learning more secrets.
Wang Jianjun himself looked down on those big shots, let alone Lin Feng.
Yang Jianhua was speechless and quickly said:
"I'm sorry, I don't know much about the situation in Hong Kong."
Wang Jianjun was indifferent:
"Actually, it's nothing. It's okay not to know."
"Just don't speak carelessly, that's all."
Yang Jianhua nodded.
"Can I really go back tonight?"
"Drug lords aren't easy to catch."
Wang Jianjun glanced at her:
"The Boss never lies."
"If he says you can go back tonight, then you definitely can."
Yang Jianhua felt a moment of distraction.
Wang Jianjun's words exuded a strong confidence that was very convincing.
"Are our brothers doing well here?" Yang Jianhua immediately changed the topic. "Don't misunderstand, I came to deliver Police Woman bodyguards this time."
"Several of them are my sisters, so I'm just asking to put their minds at ease."
Wang Jianjun shrugged:
"The brothers' lives are very simple."
"It's very straightforward here: classes, training, and missions."
Yang Jianhua asked in confusion:
"Classes?"
Wang Jianjun nodded:
"This is Hong Kong after all. First, they need to understand Cantonese, and second, they need to master foreign languages."
Yang Jianhua was quite shocked:
"They have to learn foreign languages too?"
Wang Jianjun explained:
"Most of Thunder Security's clients are either rich or noble, which are the big shots you mentioned earlier."
"They definitely need to master foreign languages."
"Besides that, they have to learn various other elective subjects, like jewelry appraisal…"
Yang Jianhua quickly interrupted him:
"They have to learn jewelry appraisal too?"
Wang Jianjun explained:
"They definitely have to learn it. If a home is robbed, it's certainly people-centric. The client's life is paramount, and property safety is temporarily secondary."
"Some clients are misers by nature. Asking them to abandon their treasures is like asking for their lives."
"The bodyguards can only, in a very short time, throw out less valuable items to avert disaster."
"This is where jewelry appraisal comes in."
"At least, you need to know what kind of jewelry is of less value."
"Thunder Security offers very good benefits, but honestly, they also have a lot to learn."
"Physics and chemistry are essential, Cantonese and foreign languages are definitely required, and then there's various security-related knowledge, like micro-expression analysis and so on… Besides that, they also have to undergo practical combat training."
"It's packed, not easy at all."
Yang Jianhua gasped:
"This is too exaggerated, isn't it?"
Wang Jianjun shook his head:
"Not exaggerated. We do security work, and Hong Kong is very chaotic. It's a life-and-death struggle."
"Learning a bit more can increase the brothers' chances of survival."
"Also, security is a young man's game."
"After this period, when they can no longer do security, we have to find other ways out for the brothers."
"They can't be risking their lives their whole lives, can they?"
Yang Jianhua nodded silently.
"Learn a bit more, and when they transfer to another job, with all their skills, it won't be difficult to find re-employment."
"Thunder Security's salaries are very high."
"The Boss is very generous. When our brothers don't have missions, their basic salary is 20,000."
"If they go on missions, there are also bonuses to be had."
"Working here for a year, I can't say anything else, but everyone can easily save two to three hundred thousand."
"This is actually the lowest level."
"If they are a bit more capable in security, an annual salary of a million is also normal."
Hiss!
Yang Jianhua's eyes widened.
How was this normal?
Her monthly salary was only three hundred!
"Don't compare the salaries of our Mainland with here. Hong Kong is in a period of rapid development, and land is ridiculously expensive. Having such a salary is actually nothing."
Yang Jianhua fell silent, wondering when the salaries in her Mainland could catch up with Hong Kong. There would be such a day, right?
"You rest well here. If you need anything, tell me, and I'll have the brothers get it."
Yang Jianhua quickly said:
"No, no, it's already very good here."
"It's almost like a hotel…"
Yang Jianhua looked at the room she was in, speechless.
Hong Kong is an inch of land and an inch of gold; she understood how precious land was.
However, the room Wang Jianjun brought her to was almost comparable to a presidential suite.
All the facilities inside were complete, and the key was its size!
It was almost 150 square meters.
It was simply outrageous.
Did the Thunder Security building actually have such a room?
This was something Yang Jianhua had never imagined.
Wang Jianjun saw her expression and explained:
"This is a room for distinguished guests."
"Thunder Security's clients are either rich or noble. If they encounter an unexpected situation, they might need to stay here."
"Usually, such rooms are unoccupied."
"You don't have to worry about the hygiene; the cleaning staff here clean it every day."
Yang Jianhua quickly said:
"No, no, I'm not that delicate."
Wang Jianjun kept shaking his head:
"If you don't stay comfortably, it's a slap in the face for our Thunder Security."
"No matter what, we have to make sure you are comfortable."
Yang Jianhua smiled:
"Isn't it supposed to be simple when on a mission?"
Wang Jianjun shrugged:
"If there are conditions, why should one shortchange oneself?"
"Section Chief Yang, please rest well here. You'll be traveling at night."
Yang Jianhua's heart trembled. Wang Jianjun was so certain; could Koon Tsoi-ba really be arrested within half a day?
This was too ridiculous, wasn't it?
The higher-ups said to listen to Mr. Lin when in Hong Kong, so she would listen to Mr. Lin.
Yang Jianhua was truly tired and fell asleep without realizing it.
When she woke up, it was already getting dark.
Food had already been placed in the outer suite.
Wang Jianjun was waiting for her outside:
"Section Chief Yang, I apologize. It's rare for you to be on a business trip to Xiangjiang. Originally, I should have taken you around Xiangjiang properly and treated you to a meal."
"Unfortunately, plans have changed."
"You need to prepare to go back."
When Yang Jianhua heard him say "plans have changed," her heart tightened, thinking something had gone wrong.
But she never expected the change in plans to be like this.
She was both surprised and delighted:
"Koon Tsoi-ba has been caught?!"
This was too fast! He was a major drug lord who had given her Mainland a headache.
"He's caught," Wang Jianjun explained. "The Boss has a lot of power in Xiangjiang. This time, he hired people from Chung Yee Shun to do the job."
"It's hard for others to catch Koon Tsoi-ba, but it's no problem at all for Chung Yee Shun's people."
"This Triad specializes in drug trafficking."
Yang Jianhua's expression was unreadable.
"The Boss doesn't deal drugs." Wang Jianjun naturally knew what Yang Jianhua was thinking. "As a Triad Boss, he has connections with all sorts of people, even drug-dealing Triads."
"Everyone in Xiangjiang knows that the Boss hates drug trafficking the most."
Yang Jianhua quickly said:
"Don't misunderstand, the higher-ups said that once I'm in Xiangjiang, I am to follow Mr. Lin's instructions completely."
Wang Jianjun shrugged.
"Let's rest for a bit. I'll take you to the pier later."
"Koon Tsoi-ba and his wife have already been apprehended, and a boat has been arranged."
"You'll be heading back after a short rest!"
Yang Jianhua's pupils constricted. They really caught him?
Too fast!
Two hours later, Yang Jianhua had been taken to a pier by Wang Jianjun.
Do Chai King, sent by Benny, was already waiting:
"Brother Jun, the Boss has already said to safely send you all back to your Mainland."
Wang Jianjun asked:
"Has the cargo been delivered?"
Do Chai King replied:
"It's here. They're tied up and in the cabin."
Wang Jianjun and Yang Jianhua went down to the cabin to look. Koon Tsoi-ba and his wife were bound hand and foot, and their mouths were sealed with tape.
"Good, it's them."
Yang Jianhua was overwhelmed with joy.
Mr. Lin's power was beyond imagination; in just half a day, he had taken down Koon Tsoi-ba, who had been a headache for her Mainland.
It was simply unbelievable.
"This isn't secure enough." Wang Jianjun looked at the two lying there, then pulled out two pairs of silver handcuffs and "click-clack" put them on the two.
This wasn't enough. He then pulled out two ropes and, in a few swift movements, tied up their thumbs.
After doing all this, Wang Jianjun clapped his hands in satisfaction.
Do Chai King's eyes widened:
"Brother Jun... you're too professional, aren't you?"
Wang Jianjun shrugged:
"We do security; being professional is being responsible to our clients."
Do Chai King looked at Wang Jianjun with immense reverence. This Yuen Long hall master's methods were even more professional than the police.
If he offended him, he wouldn't be able to escape.
"Brother Feng's subordinates are all formidable!"
Li Fu goes without saying. Li Jie is now even closer to Liang Kun, trusted by Liang Kun even more than Chan Yiu. Besides, there's Lok Tin-hung, Chicken... "Brother Jun, don't worry, the Boss has instructed us. These are the people the higher-ups want, and our precautions for them are the strictest."
Wang Jianjun nodded slightly:
"Captain, you'll have a tough job. This is Brother Feng's good friend, Sister Yang. Throughout this journey, you must follow Sister Yang's instructions."
Do Chai King thumped his chest in assurance:
"The Boss has instructed us to follow your command completely."
Wang Jianjun casually took out a roll of money and slipped it into the other party's hand:
"Here, for the hard work of the brothers in Tsuen Wan. Take it for tea."
Do Chai King was startled:
"I wouldn't dare accept this."
Wang Jianjun shrugged:
"Boss Ding said that when you're out in the world, it's all about money. The brothers were having a good time, but they still had to work in the middle of the night. Tea money is deserved."
Do Chai King had no choice but to accept it.
Originally, he wasn't entirely convinced. Wang Jianjun had come from behind to become the hall master of Yuen Long, and many people were not happy about it.
However, the Liang Kun faction was powerful, so there was nothing they could do even if they were unhappy.
But now, seeing Wang Jianjun's demeanor, Do Chai King was convinced.
Their social statuses were completely different now. Wang Jianjun could speak directly with Benny and didn't need to care about him at all. Yet, he still showed him respect. This magnanimity was beyond his own.
How do you define respect?
Giving money is respect!
"Captain, you must listen to Miss Yang throughout this journey. She is Benny's most honored guest."
Wang Jianjun was worried that the Captain might accidentally offend Yang Jianhua, so he repeatedly cautioned him.
The Captain quickly said:
"Brother Jun, don't worry, the Boss has already instructed me."
Only then did Wang Jianjun say to Yang Jianhua:
"Sister Yang, I won't sleep tonight. When you arrive, please ask Brother Bao to call me."
Yang Jianhua was extremely grateful:
"Thank you, Brother Jun, for your trouble."
Wang Jianjun smiled:
"It's nothing. Have a safe journey."
Wang Jianjun waited until the boat was out of sight before preparing to head back.
Do Chai King asked:
"Brother Jun, is this Miss Yang very important?"
Wang Jianjun looked at him and answered seriously:
"She is a guest whom even Brother Benny treats with the utmost respect."
Do Chai King was startled.
Wang Jianjun parted ways with him and returned to the Lin residence on Victoria Peak half an hour later.
To his surprise, there were other people there.
"Brother Fu, who's inside?"
Li Fu asked:
"Has Section Chief Yang gone back?"
Wang Jianjun nodded slightly:
"She's already on the boat. It's Benny's boat, and the passage is completely clear."
"Once they disembark, Brother Bao will call us."
Li Fu breathed a sigh of relief:
"That's good."
Wang Jianjun pursed his lips:
"The Boss has guests?"
Li Fu smiled:
"Brother Feng is a man of principle. Lin Ho-tung helped him, so he naturally has to entertain him."
"They're talking inside the house."
Wang Jianjun sneered:
"The Boss is giving Lin Ho-tung a chance. I hope he can seize it."
"Otherwise, if he dares to deal drugs in our territory again, we absolutely won't let him off."
Li Fu was speechless:
"That's true, but don't go around saying that outside."
"Brother Feng doesn't want to dominate."
Wang Jianjun shrugged.
If he really wanted to dominate, with Hung Hing's strength and Thunder Security's firepower, no force in the underworld could withstand it.
Of course, if that were the case, he would become a target for everyone.
Even if he didn't dominate, Wang Jianjun subconsciously regarded the underworld as Lin Feng's sphere of influence.
"Jian Jun, you should understand Brother Feng's thoughts. We aren't really part of the underworld."
Wang Jianjun nodded repeatedly:
"Brother Fu, don't worry, I won't cause trouble for the Boss."
Li Fu nodded slightly:
"How are the convenience stores in Yuen Long coming along?"
Wang Jianjun shrugged:
"I let Dai Tau manage the Triad matters. We talked yesterday, and the convenience stores are being established very smoothly."
"Compared to other places, Yuen Long still has a huge demand for convenience stores, and we're doing very well establishing them."
Li Fu smiled:
"In a couple of days, our group's convenience stores will be blooming everywhere."
"This is the first step for our Hung Hing to go legitimate."
Wang Jianjun frowned slightly:
"Even if convenience stores are all over Xiangjiang, it won't make us legitimate, will it?"
Li Fu chuckled softly:
"The power of subtle influence is strong; never dismiss it."
"When Xiangjiang citizens see our convenience stores wherever they go, almost no one will think we are a Triad."
"Of course, this takes time."
"Brother Feng told me that he will be taking measures to strengthen our whitewashing propaganda recently."
Wang Jianjun was extremely interested:
"How will that be done?"
Li Fu shook his head:
"How could Brother Feng's ingenuity be something I could compare to? But I heard him say that he seems to be making a movie."
Wang Jianjun was even more puzzled:
"How will making a movie promote our Hung Hing?"
"Is it a sponsorship?"
"Who looks at the acknowledgments?"
Li Fu shrugged:
"How would I know?"
"However, we should trust our Boss, right?"
Wang Jianjun nodded solemnly:
"Of course, I trust the Boss."
He looked at the room, wondering what the Boss and Lin Ho-tung had to discuss.
Wang Jianjun was very curious, but he didn't ask, nor did he want to inquire. He was one of Lin Feng's most trusted confidants. If it was something he was meant to know, Lin Feng would tell him without Wang Jianjun having to ask.
Conversely, if it wasn't something he should know, he absolutely didn't want to know.
He who pays the piper calls the tune. Wang Jianjun had a good sense of self-awareness, something many people couldn't achieve. There were always ungrateful individuals in the world.

Chapter 362: Assemble, I'm Going to Make a Movie
"Mr. Lin, thank you for the information."
Lin Ho-tung forced a smile and bid farewell to Lin Feng.
"I will go back and investigate thoroughly."
Lin Feng sighed:
"I can't bear to see such things happen. My condolences."
Lin Ho-tung's face twitched:
"Please stay."
He nodded to Li Fu and Wang Jianjun, his mind preoccupied, then left.
Li Fu and Wang Jianjun exchanged glances, both utterly bewildered.
"Brother Feng, what did you say to Lin Ho-tung that made him like this?"
They were both very curious.
"Nothing, I just told him about Su Su's plan to start a gang war."
Their eyes widened.
"You told him something like that?"
Lin Feng looked at them strangely:
"Isn't this a good thing? Let them fight among themselves, it's much better than us dealing with them personally, isn't it?"
"But that's Chung Yee Shun."
"A bunch of lunatics."
"If we attack head-on, our brothers might get injured."
"Isn't it better to let them kill each other?"
Li Fu and Wang Jianjun looked at each other, completely baffled by Lin Feng's methods.
Everyone in the Triad knew that Hung Hing's Lin Feng was an sworn enemy of drugs; anyone caught by him dealing drugs would be lucky to be thrown into the sea.
Both understood Lin Feng's hatred for Chung Yee Shun.
Li Fu and Wang Jianjun also disliked Chung Yee Shun.
However... "Brother Feng, you've already told Lin Ho-tung about Su Su's plan for a gang war, so will Chung Yee Shun still fight among themselves?"
Lin Feng shrugged:
"Why wouldn't they fight?"
Li Fu couldn't help but say:
"If Lin Ho-tung knows about this, doesn't that mean Lin Ho-lung knows?"
"How can they fight then?"
Lin Feng smiled:
"Xiao Fu, you've been with me for so long, and at the end of the day, you're still an honest person."
Li Fu was stunned:
"Am I wrong?"
Lin Feng burst out laughing:
"Do you know why my relationship with Brother Kun is praised in the Triad?"
Li Fu blurted out:
"Your and Boss Ding's relationship has gone through many trials. There are very few people in the Triad who can be like the two of you."
"They should be praised."
Lin Feng scoffed:
"Not 'very few,' but practically none."
Li Fu was startled, vaguely grasping something.
Wang Jianjun's eyes, however, lit up:
"The relationship between the Boss and Boss Ding is very common in the army."
"But in the Triad, I've hardly seen it."
Li Fu wondered:
"Aren't Hung Hing's various hall masters like that?"
Wang Jianjun shook his head:
"My subordinate, Dai Tau, he took the fall for Xi B for three years."
"At the time, it was agreed that as long as Dai Tau took the blame, he would be a Big Boss when he came out."
"What was the result?"
"If Dai Tau hadn't met the Boss, he'd still be selling newspapers right now!"
Wang Jianjun sneered endlessly:
"The Triad claims to be founded on loyalty and righteousness, but this is how loyal and righteous they are."
Li Fu frowned:
"That's true, but Lin Ho-tung and Lin Ho-lung are biological brothers. Would he not tell his Big Boss after learning about something like this?"
Wang Jianjun sighed, imitating Lin Feng:
"You've been with the Boss longer than me. Haven't there been plenty of cases in the Triad where brothers turned against each other for a few dollars?"
"Forget the Triad, even in real life, aren't there countless examples of brothers going to court over trivial matters?"
Li Fu was greatly shocked.
His moral standards were very high.
In his view, everyone was kind-hearted; he had no dark psychology, so he naturally didn't know the dark side of human nature.
Li Fu looked at Lin Feng:
"Brother Feng, do you mean Lin Ho-tung will fuel the fire?"
"Sit back and watch Chung Yee Shun fight among themselves?"
"I don't think that's very likely, no matter how I think about it."
"Lin Ho-tung was personally brought up by Lin Ho-lung; the two brothers relied on each other."
"Will something like this really happen?"
Lin Feng was silent for a moment before saying:
"The human heart is the hardest to fathom."
"However, Lin Ho-tung is a gambler."
"Gambling and drugs have always been the most black-hearted."
Li Fu and Wang Jianjun fell silent simultaneously.
"But no matter what, this is Chung Yee Shun's internal affair. No matter how things develop, it will benefit us."
"So, there's no need to worry about this."
The two nodded repeatedly.
Wang Jianjun asked:
"Boss, Brother Fu just said you have a way to legitimize Hung Hing?"
Lin Feng was startled:
"Aren't we legitimizing it step by step?"
Li Fu quickly said:
"Jian Jun means, do you have enough publicity methods?"
Lin Feng smiled:
"That's simple."
"Here's what we'll do: tomorrow, notify all the hall masters that we'll have a meeting... let's skip the daytime; it's too crowded to go out, it would waste everyone's time."
Li Fu nodded repeatedly:
"I'll tell Boss Ding."
"Brother Feng, what reason should I give?"
Lin Feng shrugged:
"I'm going to make a movie!"
Make a movie?
Wang Jianjun wondered:
"Making a movie doesn't require all the hall masters to come out, does it?"
Lin Feng burst out laughing:
"I naturally have my own plan."
"You just go and notify them."
Wang Jianjun thought for a moment and asked:
"Boss, am I going too?"
Lin Feng nodded slightly:
"Of course, you are the Yuen Long hall master, so you naturally have to come."
Wang Jianjun shrugged:
"I'll be there tomorrow night."
Lin Feng instructed Li Fu:
"Dai Kuen Pao sent a team of female bodyguards. Send four of them to Taiwan tonight."
Li Fu thought for a moment and asked:
"Brother Feng, are you sending them to Third Sister-in-law?"
"By boat?"
Lin Feng shook his head:
"No, through normal channels."
"Send them under the name of our Thunder Security."
Li Fu agreed.
This was a small matter.
Whether it was smuggling or normal entry, Hung Hing had established channels.
Lin Feng clapped his hands:
"Alright, it's getting very late. You two should go back and sleep quickly, don't develop bad habits like me."
The two nodded repeatedly.
Lin Feng saw them off, returned to the training room, practiced for over an hour, took a shower, and then hunched over the table to start writing a script.
He was serious about making a movie.
All the movies in Hong Kong were 'flying paper' scripts without a proper screenplay. Lin Feng couldn't do that; he had a mature story, so he just needed to write it down well.
"It seems there has never been a Triad movie in the Hong Kong cinematic universe."
"But it doesn't matter."
"Since I'm here, there will be one."
"For publicity, naturally, I'll write the story of Hung Hing."
"I wonder what their expressions will be when they see this script."
"Honestly, I'm really looking forward to it."
"Hahaha!"
Lin Feng typed until four o'clock, then went to bed!
At nine o'clock, Li Fu had already called Liang Kun.
"Ah Feng wants to make a movie?"
Liang Kun was very surprised,
"If he wants to make a movie, he can just make a movie. Why tell me this?"
Li Fu shrugged:
"Boss Ding, you know Brother Feng; everything he does has a deeper meaning."
"I heard he seems to want to do publicity for our Hung Hing."
Liang Kun was a bit confused:
"Doing publicity for Hung Hing is a good thing, but does it require fifteen halls to cooperate fully?"
"It shouldn't, right?"
No matter how he thought about it, it didn't seem right.
It was just making a movie; why would it need so many people?
Hung Hing was no longer the Hung Hing of the past.
Now, any single hall was equivalent to two halls from before.
Liang Kun wanted to call Lin Feng to ask, but when he checked the time, it was only nine o'clock. Oh well, don't call. He wouldn't answer anyway; his younger brother had a terrible temper when woken up. If he angered him and he ran to Old Mother to complain, Liang Kun couldn't handle that.
Liang Kun thought it over and didn't dare to take the risk.
After hanging up the phone, he asked Chan Yiu:
"Ah Yao, what do you think Ah Feng wants to do?"
Chan Yiu also had no clue:
"Mr. Li, don't you have a film company?"
Liang Kun rolled his eyes:
"My film company specializes in making adult films."
"I've never made a proper promotional movie."
The two exchanged glances, both unable to understand what Lin Feng wanted to do.
It was Shui Ling who spoke:
"Ah Feng has his own reasons. Just go to the meeting; you won't lose anything."
The two thought about it and agreed.
So they sent out the notification.
When Lin Feng arrived, he unexpectedly saw Chuen Bo:
"Uncle Chuan Bao, didn't you go to enjoy your retirement?"
According to Hung Hing's rules, once an uncle retired, the Triad would naturally provide for his old age.
As for medical expenses, those were covered by the Triad Hospital.
Any uncle who lived to be fifty or sixty, regardless of their position before retirement, received free medical care.
Chuen Bo chuckled:
"I wouldn't dare disturb your meeting. I'm here today to claim credit."
Triad members are straightforward, and Chuen Bo's persona was blunt—those who knew his true nature secretly cursed him as an old fox; those who didn't, didn't take it to heart.
"Claiming credit?" Lin Feng was exceptionally puzzled, "What credit are you claiming?"
Chuen Bo quickly reminded him:
"Our Hung Hing needs to transform, aren't we short on people?"
Lin Feng nodded:
"Yes, it's severely lacking!"
"Then that's right!" Chuen Bo said, rubbing his hands, "I've brought people for our Triad."
Lin Feng was surprised.
Brother Kei asked curiously, "Chuen Bo, who can you find?"
Chuen Bo looked smug.
"This time, I've brought three thousand people to our Hung Hing."
The Hall of Brotherhood was silent.
Then there was an uproar!
Sister Thirteen whistled and asked in surprise, "Uncle Chuan Bao, you're amazing! Where did you recruit three thousand people from?"
Chuen Bo chuckled, "From Wo Luen Shing, of course!"
The Hall of Brotherhood instantly fell silent.
Sister Thirteen couldn't help but ask Big D, "Big D, you've poached all the people from Wo Luen Shing?"
Big D was very pleased, "After Fat Deng and Lam Wai Lok died, it would be a joke to expect Chui Gei, that good-for-nothing, to revive Wo Luen Shing."
"Our Hung Hing needs to transform, and the more brothers we have under us, the better."
"Uncle Chuan Bao and I went to Wo Luen Shing."
"We just showed a little bit of our strength, and those guys went crazy!"
"They all said they wanted to follow us."
Chuen Bo explained, "Hong Kong is very chaotic now. Those people from Wo Luen Shing dare not make a move, so it can be said that they are struggling."
"If it weren't for Tycoon blocking the way, who knows what would have happened to those people."
Brother Kei was taken aback, "You mean?"
Chuen Bo said bluntly, "Wo Luen Shing is one of the Top Ten Gangs, but the most powerful of the nine hall masters, Big D, has joined Hung Hing, and the next most powerful, Lok Siu, along with Fat Deng from the Elder Council, have both kicked the bucket... Everyone knows that Wo Luen Shing is finished."
"Everyone knows the ways of the underworld."
"There are always more people who kick you when you're down than those who offer help."
"If Tycoon's people weren't causing trouble now, Wo Luen Shing would probably have been swallowed up by the surrounding Triads."
Everyone nodded in unison.
This conjecture is very likely.
No!
It's almost a certainty.
The law of the jungle has always been the nature of the underworld.
There are many Triads in Hong Kong, but small Triads are, at best, a flash in the pan for three to five years.
Where did they go?
They were merged with others!
Brother Kei praised, "Chuen Bo, you're quite ruthless."
Chuen Bo shrugged, "They were willing."
"If they didn't follow me, they'd be dead!"
"They don't know how grateful they are to me!"
Everyone laughed.
Poaching from one's former employer is generally frowned upon in the underworld; it's not an exaggeration to say it incites hatred.
Chuen Bo is an old fox; he wouldn't do such a thing.
It just so happened that he encountered the current situation.
What would have originally been an act of resentment became an act of saving old brothers from dire straits.
Even Gweilo Yan and Lung Gen, who were at odds with him in Wo Luen Shing, secretly invited him to dinner.
Wo Luen Shing produces many foxes; those uncles are not fools!
Lin Feng laughed, "Chuen Bo and Brother D did well. I said before, three hundred dollars per person. You brought three thousand people, so that's a million, no questions asked!"
He immediately wrote a million-dollar check and handed it to Chuen Bo.
Chuen Bo was stunned.
Huh?
He just earned a million dollars?
Chuen Bo couldn't help but look at Big D, then at Liang Kun. Liang Kun said, "The country has its laws, and a family has its rules."
"When we're out here mixing, we rely on rules."
"When the rules are established, we, the Big Bosses, can be happy."
"As I said before, our Hung Hing is short on people. As long as you recruit, each person gets a three hundred dollar commission."
"However, this money cannot come from Ah Feng; it must come from our Triad."
"Ah Yao, you'll write a check to Ah Feng later."
Lin Feng rolled his eyes, "Do you even have money that can be deposited in a bank right now?"
Chan Yiu smiled, "This is all thanks to Brother Feng; otherwise, we really wouldn't be able to come up with this money."
Lin Feng gently patted his head; how could he have forgotten about this?
Liang Kun added, "While we're short on people, we don't just take anyone."
"Drug dealers are strictly not accepted."
Everyone nodded in unison.
The Triad Big Boss Lin Feng detested drug dealing. No Big Boss would dare to challenge him, let alone ordinary hall masters; even Liang Kun wouldn't dare.
Chuen Bo's words showed that he was a true old fox: "Of course. Da Pu Hei offered me five hundred thousand to help him switch to Hung Hing, but I ignored him."
Da Pu Hei sells ecstasy pills.
Strictly speaking, this stuff is also a type of drug; it just depends on whether you're being particular or not.
If you really want to be particular, hey, it's definitely a drug.
Lin Feng clapped his hands and said, "There are so many shady businesses in the underworld, plenty of places to make money. But white powder, that stuff, absolutely cannot be touched."
"Hung Hing is at a critical moment of going legitimate, and we absolutely cannot be stained."
Liang Kun said, "Ah Feng is right. If you all want to live peacefully in the future, and want your descendants to grow up to be lawyers and doctors, then you absolutely cannot get involved in anything shady."
"This is our Triad's bottom line."
Everyone agreed in unison.
Liang Kun asked Lin Feng, "Why did you gather us all here? What exactly do you want to do?"
Lin Feng shrugged, "Make movies, of course!"
Liang Kun said in annoyance, "You want to make movies, and you have to make such a big fuss about it?"
"Isn't it okay if I just give you my Qiankun Film and Television to play with?"
Lin Feng laughed, "Originally, I wanted to start a new film company, but since you, Big Boss, are willing to give it to me, I'll accept it."
Liang Kun wondered, "Are you really making movies?"
Lin Feng asked in surprise, "No?"
Liang Kun said, speechless, "The streets are so chaotic right now, it's not easy for everyone to come out."
"If you want to make a movie, just give me a call. Why bother everyone to make a trip?"
Lin Feng shook his head, "This movie of mine concerns the image of our Triad, so naturally, I have to trouble everyone."
Hmm?!
Liang Kun said, stunned, "What kind of image does our Hung Hing have right now?"
Liang Kun spoke crudely, but it was the truth.
One of the Top Ten Gangs, with recent major actions, it subtly felt like the number one among the Top Ten Gangs.
Even Chung Yee Shun didn't have as much prestige as them.
Hung Hing disciples walked with great swagger!
Swagger they had.
However, in the minds of the citizens, their image was definitely that of a Triad!
But this was somewhat unfair to Hung Hing; Hung Hing's actions didn't quite qualify them as a Triad. At least, some people had absolutely no connection to the Triad.
But this didn't at all hinder Hung Hing's image in the minds of ordinary citizens.
Liang Kun was right, Hung Hing had no image whatsoever!
"So, I'm going to gather everyone to make a movie."
Lin Feng said casually.
Sister Thirteen asked in surprise, "What kind of movie requires all of us to appear?"
Lin Feng smiled mysteriously, "That's what I'm going to do."
"I've decided to make a movie about our Hung Hing."
Everyone was in an uproar.
Liang Kun looked at Lin Feng in disbelief, "You're making a movie about us?"
"What's there to film?"
"Filming us fighting and killing all day?"
"Our image is already bad enough; wouldn't you make it even worse by doing that?"
Lin Feng burst out laughing, "How could I possibly do such a thing?"
Brother Kei frowned, "Ah Feng, we all know you have good ideas. Don't play guessing games; what are your thoughts?"
"As long as it's something we can do, we will cooperate fully."
Baji is a well-known good guy in Hung Hing. Even if he sometimes acts foolishly, no one in the Triad has ever held it against him.
The Prince said bluntly, "Ah Feng, we are all rough people. Just tell us directly what to do."
Lin Feng shrugged, "I've written a script about our Hung Hing."
Everyone's eyes widened.
Sister Thirteen was particularly puzzled, "Ah Feng, aren't you trying to go legitimate?"
"Since you want to go legitimate, why are you writing such a story?"
"Wouldn't that just make things even darker?"
Lin Feng laughed, "Of course, I wouldn't write the true story of our Hung Hing."
"I'll write a line at the beginning of the movie—'This story is purely fictional; any resemblance to actual events is purely coincidental.'"
"This story is not completely unrelated to the true development of our Hung Hing; rather, it's definitely unrelated."
"As long as the movie sells well, doing this once or twice will be enough."
Sister Thirteen didn't understand the logic behind it: "What is this about?"
Lin Feng smiled, "It's simple: stir up the waters."
"The world knows that our Hung Hing is a big Triad in the underworld."
"Many people know our deeds, so it's very difficult to go legitimate."
"So, the first step is to confuse the perceptions of Hong Kong citizens."
