Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 891: People who don’t think about the future will have immediate worries
Chu Xiangqian smiled and continued to say to Luotuo, "You should know that you can't eat club meals for a lifetime. There are so many senior leaders, but only a few of them can really retire peacefully.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many leaders and masters of gangs who want to go into business when they get older.

It's nothing more than making enough money and wanting to clean it up and get out of trouble."

The camel nodded. When one makes a lot of money, one will inevitably worry about gains and losses.

And to put it bluntly, those who join a club may feel that the club is impressive at first.

But after a few years, I realized that it's just a way to make a living.

Once you get to the top and make more money, you naturally want to make more, but out of 10, not one can really get to the top.

Most of our lives are just ordinary people.

Some people get married and have children in their 30s, but in the end they still have to go to work.

Bus drivers and taxi drivers are actually considered good. Being able to drive is a good skill these days.

The income is actually quite high.

Chu Xiangqian entrusted the operation of the taxi companies in Kowloon and Hong Kong to Luotuo and Deng Fei. The two men basically assigned the drivers to their trusted confidants or their children, nephews, etc.

Not only can you make a lot of money, but you can also win over trusted people.

In a society, a good boss is one who can provide good jobs to his subordinates.

Only the people below are willing to support you.

But even though taxi companies have been adding vehicles every year in the past two years, with 300 vehicles in Hong Kong Island and 300 vehicles in Kowloon, they are not actually creating many jobs.

But for Luotuo and Deng Fei personally, it meant that they each won over hundreds of people.

There are morning and evening shifts, so 300 vehicles require 600 drivers.

Don't be fooled by the fact that he has 5 followers. In fact, most of them are engaged in ordinary jobs such as construction site workers, restaurant waiters, and street vendors.

If something really happens in the society, these people can only wave flags and cheer a few times in the background.

If we really let them rush up with sticks and start fighting, unless the situation is favorable, they will definitely hit them twice and then run away.

Although the boss seems powerful, few of them actually have money.

There are actually not many real fights in Hong Kong every year.

If you get hurt, you have to pay for medical treatment. If you get caught, you have to go to the police station to rescue the person, which costs at least a few hundred dollars.

If hundreds of them were caught, some bosses would directly cut off their cash flow.

Among all the leaders and croupiers of all the gangs in Hong Kong Island, there is not a single one who can earn one or two million every year through clean business like Camel.

As for the side business, that’s another story.

However, according to Renault's rules, the five flour merchants in Hong Kong Island each paid an annual contribution of HK$5 million a few years ago, which has increased to HK$300 million in the past two years.

In fact, we can see that money is really valuable these days.

However, although the tribute is paid, it is money for Lei Luo alone, and he still has to pay the fees in the future.

The regulatory fees are the money distributed to the swindlers, the detectives and their subordinates.

Over the past few years, Luotuo has a net worth of at least tens of millions.

Sometimes his wife and children have tried to persuade him to stop.

At first, Luotuo was annoyed when he heard this, but as the money increased, it exceeded his wish of making five million.

The courage in my heart is almost gone.

When it comes to subjugating the people below, the camel himself sometimes feels that he can subjugate them once, twice, or three times, but he cannot sit still in the leading position forever.

If you happen to meet someone who is stupid or ambitious, it goes without saying that your fate will be death without a burial place.

And once you deal with one, there will be a second and a third.

This kind of thing cannot be stopped.

Chu Xiangqian smiled and continued, "It's unrealistic to ask you to completely quit the group, and it might even harm you.

So, you can actually learn from Deng Fei.

The society's legitimate business is being targeted, but those who are trying to make money through illegal means will not be let go.

Give it to confidants, veterans, or young people who want to get promoted.

These people have money to earn and like to make quick money, so let them earn it.

You never know if he will die one day, and it will save others from saying that you are intolerant."

The camel touched his head and chuckled, saying that the society was both moral and immoral.

Some basic principles still need to be adhered to, but if you make money quickly through illegal means, you will inevitably have to fight with others.

In addition, money is made so quickly that only a few people can keep their mentality unbalanced.

Those who become crazy when they get rich rarely live beyond 10 years.

The reason why Chu Xiangqian said so much is that this is the way of the times.

The ones who work as policemen are the ones who make the most money, while those who engage in prostitution and gambling are also included.

There is a Fenglou in Huang and Hong Kong Island, and people use it to take photos.

It's actually serious business here.

Those who don’t take photos will be arrested by the police when they are patrolling the streets.

After paying the money, they will release you.

If you want to gamble, go to Aomen, it’s also a legitimate business.

As for "reading", Hong Kong "du" came and said that flour should be banned, so we should clean up the police station first.

People like Lei Luo, Lan Gang, Fei Bo, Yan Tong, Chinese detectives of all sizes, and the foreigners from England are the real masterminds behind the scenes.

Over the past ten or twenty years, the police have taken away at least tens of billions of dollars.

No matter how stupid Chu Xiangqian was, he knew that this was the way the times were and he could not change anything by himself.

But in a few years, the Independent Commission Against Corruption will be established, and the relationship between the gangs and the police will change drastically. They will go from being partners to opponents, so I have to consider things in advance.

If you want to make money safely, even if you are a celebrity for a while, you will inevitably have to deal with the community in the end.

Deng Fei doesn't have to worry about it himself, as the old man is very cautious.

Although he didn't make much money, he was fair in his work and was willing to share the money with the retired leaders.

So he has always been behind the scenes, firmly holding the power to win and win.

Dongxing, who has always been the one who has the final say, will have to get rid of Luotuo if he doesn't wake him up.

But doing so will have a huge impact on your reputation.

And reputation in the Chinese community is sometimes really important.

He continued with a smile, "Since you like making movies, you should be serious about it. Even if it's just a supporting role, you should make it a golden supporting role."

Even if the whole of Hong Kong knows that you are the leader, so what? You have already made enough money.

What remains is how to retire peacefully.

And a star is also the vice president of the Actors Association. As the vice president, he usually helps actors solve problems where the actors are in the right but are bullied by the association.

If this kind of person dies, both the police and the public will definitely demand an explanation."

Luotuo frowned in surprise, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Chu Xiangqian was right.

I was elected as the vice president because I have been helping actors solve their problems.

As for acting, before I became the leading actor, I just hung out on the sets.

Later, he became the boss of that film set and came into contact with Chu’s Film.

Finally, I met Chu Xiangqian, who had just arrived in Hong Kong Island not long ago.

As the boss gained power, he also benefited from it. Not only did he become the leader with Chu Xiangqian's support, but he also made one or two million a year without doing anything. Thinking about the fact that Chu Xiangqian had never miscalculated, Luotuo suddenly felt that there was no point in caring about so many things. He should just do whatever the boss said.

Chu Xiangqian couldn't help but laugh when he saw that the camel was so tactful.

Before sending him to the car, he said, "Don't curse in public in the future. You've already landed, don't let outsiders think that you're still the short mule you used to be.

Also, if you have nothing to do, invite Zhuyouzai for a drink. Once you have a good relationship with him, you can learn from him. Don’t always make money from Zhuyouzai’s erotic movies.”

The camel was so happy that his mouth was crooked with smiles on the way home.

It seems that the big boss also knows that he was cheated by Zhuyouzai.

Now that I know this, if I ask Zhuyouzai to cooperate with me in making a movie in the future, that fat guy won’t dare to cheat me.

Thinking about the two erotic films he made with Zhuyouzai, both of which lost money, Luotuo couldn't help but mutter to himself.

"Fatty, this time I'm going to get it back with interest."

The reason Chu Xiangqian said this was not because he was jealous of Zhu Youzai, who had made a lot of money in recent years by making erotic films.

No matter how much money they make, they can’t make as much as Chu’s Films.

But it was this fat guy who, relying on the fact that he had started a few years earlier, had moved closer to Chu’s Film.

It is easy to hire professional personnel from film companies both in front of and behind the scenes, and the romantic films they make are better than those of their peers in terms of both pictures and stories, and they make a lot of money.

But after Zhuyouzai started to think about digging out the truth behind the scenes, Zou Wenhuai had complained to him twice.

Naturally, I have to teach him a lesson.

Luotuo actually always dreamed of becoming a star, and was the first to suggest a romantic martial arts film, but he felt that he was not good enough and did not dare to seek cooperation with Zou Wenhuai.

Not only did he get cheated by looking for Zhuyouzai, but after the movie was released, he was also laughed at by people from other societies.

Now that Chu Xiangqian has given him a chance, Luotuo will never let that fat guy go easily.
-
Although Jin Xiu's troubles were solved, Chu Xiangqian still took a bus to Yau Ma Tei.

Hong Zhennan was naturally very happy that Chu Xiangqian came to see him.

After chatting with him for a long time, Chu Xiangqian did not show any impatience at all.

On the contrary, I think chatting with each other is actually not bad.

After seeing Lao Hong’s beloved son, he immediately entered Master Yan’s state.

Fortunately, although the little fat boy is still as fat as ever, he has a good foundation.

After all, the family-inherited Hung Gar is itself the mainstream southern style of boxing.

There are many people in the family who practice boxing. Even Hong Zhennan’s five daughters practice boxing.

With five sisters watching him, even the most powerful Monkey King would be timid.

Chu Xiangqian heard this from Zheng Shufen more than once.

Last year, with Chu Xiangqian's approval, Hong Xiaobao was allowed to play with Hong Sanbao on the set during his holidays.

But even if you play, you still have to do your homework.

It is often seen that this boy is doing his homework on the set, being watched by two or even three sisters.

Chu Xiangqian looked at Hong Zhennan and said with a smile, "Brother, it seems that Xiaobao is working hard, so you should scold him less in the future.

If you really want to take care of it, I think you might as well leave it to your eldest sister and her five sisters.

Now it seems that the effect is very good.

You don't have to be angry, and Xiaobao doesn't dare to feel resentful because he is controlled by his sister."

Hong Zhennan and Hong Xiaobao were stunned. After thinking about it, Hong Zhennan suddenly laughed.

Hong Xiaobao looked at his master Chu Xiangqian with resentment.

My five older sisters really loved me when I was a child, but as I grew up, everything was different.

If you refute one of them, the other four will unite to deal with you.

I can't talk it out, and I can't beat him even more.

If I get hot-headed and start fighting, I will inevitably be beaten by the five sisters.

Even if she ran to her biological mother to complain, she would not be able to win the argument with her five daughters.

Hong Zhennan was indeed greatly influenced by Chu Xiangqian. He was previously known for favoring boys over girls.

In the past few years that he has known Chu Xiangqian, Chu Xiangqian has lamented more than once that he actually likes his daughter more.

When I was young, my daughter was cuter, but now that I’m old, I find my daughter is actually more caring than my son.

He also said that he envied Hong Zhennan for having five sons-in-law in the future, and that the sons-in-law would come to him as his grandsons.

When you marry a daughter-in-law, if she is a good woman, she will give you many grandchildren.

When you are old, no matter how powerful you, Hong Zhennan, were when you were young, you will still be under the control of your wife.

Otherwise, you won’t even get to see your precious grandson.

Chu Xiangqian couldn't help but laugh when he saw the little fat boy looking at him resentfully.

Xiaobao is still very obedient. Hong Zhennan has retired in recent years and has spent more time at home, so he has been more careful in disciplining this boy.

Especially after meeting Chu Jingrong, I always felt that his children were so obedient and smart.

He is incredibly cute and handsome.

When I look at my own baby again, I find him more and more unpleasant.

In addition, influenced by Chu Xiangqian, he also started to care about his daughters, so his wife now has no more than five daughters.

Chu Xiangqian waved to the little fat boy and rubbed his head.

He smiled and said, “Although the master has very little time to teach you kung fu, since he is your master, giving you a hand is the greatest role of an elder.

When your sisters think that you are good at martial arts and studying, the master will make the decision. In the future, any role that the film company needs for children around ten years old will be given to you.

If you can be as good as your brother Sanbao in the future, Master will make you a star, okay?"

Hong Xiaobao nodded vigorously immediately. Hong Zhennan on the side and several Hong sisters who were eavesdropping next door were all grinning from ear to ear.

After speaking about Hong Xiaobao, Hong Zhennan hesitated for a few seconds, and finally said, “Junior brother, you are more knowledgeable than me, and you have been to more places.

My eldest daughter has good grades, so I am thinking of sending her to college in Meiguo or Yingguo. I am just hesitant and don’t know where to go.”

Chu Xiangqian absolutely did not approve of a little girl going to study in China or England in the late 60s and early 70s.

Just look at the Beatles culture and you’ll see that European and American universities during this period were full of bullshit.

If you are not careful, you will not learn anything when you go out, but will have promiscuous relationships, eat too much, and finally forget who your ancestors are.

If that were true, Hong Zhennan would be so angry that he would die.

As a senior uncle, I am not only responsible, but I am also harming others.

He immediately said, "Going abroad to study is a good thing, but brother, have you ever thought about the purpose of studying abroad?"

Hong Zhennan and the five sisters who were eavesdropping next door immediately pricked up their ears.

Chu Xiangqian did not wait for Hong Zhennan to speak, and continued, "Studying is first to understand the truth, and second to have a better future, isn't that right?"

Hong Zhennan nodded quickly, and Chu Xiangqian continued, "If my elder sister is willing to work hard, it would be a good thing for her to go to college, but if she wants to study abroad.

If Xiaobao wants to go abroad in the future, I will arrange for him to go to Oxford or Cambridge.

But as for my elder sister, to be honest, I am not biased as a senior teacher, but I really don’t think it’s good for a young girl to study abroad alone.”

Hong Zhennan was hesitant now, and he felt relieved when he put the eldest daughter next door aside.

The little girl's heart wasn't that big, not to mention her father had been in poor health in recent years, so she didn't want to go abroad.

After all, the root cause lies with Hong Zhennan himself.
