Hong Kong variety show: I Am a Tycoon

Chapter 1 No matter what you do, you have to pay extra!

Causeway Bay, Hing Fat Street.

Inside the steaming sauna and hot spring pool.

A dozen burly men covered in tattoos were soaking in a pool of water, creating what seemed to be a forbidden zone around them. The short man at the head of the group looked particularly smug.

He leaned against the edge of the pool, lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and glanced at his underlings.

They were all misfits, utterly useless.

His gaze swept over the face of a handsome young man, and then suddenly brightened:
"Everyone put in a lot of effort in this takeover of Tung Sing's territory. I've decided to hand over the newly acquired bar to Ah Nan. Does anyone have any objections?"

"..."

Upon hearing this, Chen Jiajun felt somewhat annoyed, but his face showed no sign of it. He simply chuckled and said, "Of course I have no objection!"

Congratulations, Brother Nan!

"Okay! Let's go clubbing on Portland Street tonight, Nan's on the treat!"

As for those few oddballs, they naturally agreed wholeheartedly, because they were all Ah Nan, Chen Haonan's underlings.

Nest Skin, Rubber Skin, Pheasant, Da Tian Er, and others.

The atmosphere in the hot spring pool suddenly became lively, and the few ordinary guests had already fled to the edge of the pool.

Chan Ho-nam nodded cheerfully, "Thank you, Brother B!"

Chicken and his friends surrounded Big B as they went to drink, while Chen Jiajun left the bathhouse alone.

Dressed in clothes that had a vintage feel yet still looked fashionable, Chen Jiajun walked down the street, looking at the buildings that resembled those of the 1970s, and muttered to himself, "Damn it, who doesn't use cheats when playing a single-player game? Why are you messing with me like this?"

That's right.

Chen Jiajun is a time traveler.

In his previous life, Chen Jiajun was a game enthusiast and a hoarder of junk files on the image forum. While playing a single-player game and using cheats, his computer suddenly short-circuited, and his 29.9 yuan (including shipping) iron-rated super power supply exploded on the spot.

The next second, Chen Jiajun found himself in a world that didn't belong to him.

After getting acquainted with the place for a while, Chen Jiajun discovered that there were both real people and characters from various Hong Kong movies.

Of course, triads, Chinese tycoons, and various superstars are also indispensable.

Perhaps it's because the trash collectors on the map never spend money.

Chen Jiajun's identity is just a small-time gangster in Hung Hing.

The "big boss" is none other than "Big Boss B," an unknown figure who runs FIT in Causeway Bay.

At this time, Boss B was at the age where he was ambitious and eager to take over territory, spending his days leading a group of underlings around the streets, making a ruckus.

Chen Jiajun stayed far behind.

Having watched Hong Kong and Taiwan movies for many years, he has seen many such scenes.

Territory and such are completely useless.

Even if you get it, it's all for nothing if you can't hold onto it.

In this world, if you don't follow the right big shot, you're unlikely to rise to prominence, but you might have a chance to end up in a funeral.

Seeing how excited Boss B was, Chen Jiajun felt like he was on the verge of his own funeral.

Fortunately, Boss B now appreciates Chan Ho-nam more.

His predecessor had followed Brother B since he was a teenager and made great contributions to him, but his status was far inferior to that of the newcomer Chen Haonan.

If Chen Jiajun hadn't known the plot, he would have even thought that Boss B had some unusual views on love.

That doesn't make sense either... Chen Jiajun stood in front of the bathroom mirror, looking at the muscular man inside, and grinned.

"With that physique, those looks, and that physique, it would be a waste not to live off a woman. Why doesn't she have any henchmen?"

That's right.

His predecessor had been involved in gangs for so many years, yet he didn't even have a single follower.

Not only did he have no henchmen and no status in the gang, but his pockets were also empty.

He couldn't even afford to live in the most dilapidated housing estates, so he usually stayed at a boxing gym.

You should know that Hong Kong Island in this world was just entering the 1980s.

The criminal organization industry is gradually becoming a sunset industry; who still associates with gangs these days?
In this day and age, the obvious choices are real estate, finance, manufacturing, and tourism!

Moreover, in Hung Hing, this Chan Ho-nam is known as "Brotherly Nam," and is colloquially called the "Kill, Break, Wolf" type.

None of the powerful figures, friends, or lovers around him met a good end.

Chao Pi, Jiao Pi, Da Tian Er and other brothers were all killed by him, even big shots like Big Boss B and Jiang Tiansheng were killed by him, and even his own wife Xi Xi Li was killed by him!
Chen Jiajun doesn't want to be cursed to death.

However, leaving Hung Hing cannot be done in a short time.
Because this body belongs to an undercover agent.

His superior was named Cheuk Kai, a CID inspector.

Over the years, he had received a lot of information about Hung Hing, a major triad organization, and cracked down on many criminal gangs. However, no matter what he did, Boss B never trusted him, so he naturally couldn't find any evidence of Hung Hing's crimes.

Also because he had done a lot of shady work and offended a lot of people.
If I were to retire from this life today, I'd probably be hunted down by my enemies the very next day, beaten to a pulp, and sent straight to my funeral!
Thinking of this, Chen Jiajun felt depressed and kicked a soda can on the ground.

But the next second, he regretted it, because two patrolling officers were walking towards them.

Littering on Hong Kong Island will result in a fine!

After explaining to the two officers for a long time, the fine was waived.

Feeling frustrated and with nowhere to vent his emotions, he was worrying when a notification sound suddenly rang in his mind.

[Ding, the recruitment system with added funds has been successfully linked.]

Hearing the system notification in his mind, Chen Jiajun's eyes lit up, but this recruitment system that offered extra money left him somewhat bewildered.

Before he could react, a screen of light appeared before him, visible only to him. Inside was a large roulette wheel with a pointer. As for everything else on the wheel, it was all... ???

How do you play this thing?

Chen Jiajun reached out and fiddled with the dial. The pointer started spinning rapidly, almost sparking. If you reached out and touched the pointer, the force of the rapid spinning could probably slice off your finger.

The pointer trembled incessantly as it spun, as if countless forces were trying to stop it.
After a while, the pointer seemed to get tired and slowed down, finally stopping on a doom guy's business card, which had a few streaks of blood on the back.

"Doom guy?"

Looking at this familiar yet unfamiliar name, a hint of excitement appeared on Chen Jiajun's face. Could this be the one from his memory?

After carefully reading the system instructions, he understood the system's purpose.
Simply put, it allows you to participate in a lottery to summon powerful characters to the real world.

The system can even automatically generate identification documents and alter their appearance to make them more human-like.
However, these summoned units are not very loyal!

The only ironclad rule is that the system owner cannot be harmed.
Besides, summoned creatures don't listen to you at all. If you want them to do something, there are only two words: pay more!

Even eating, drinking, defecating, and sleeping are all your responsibility!
After reading the introduction, Chen Jiajun suppressed his excitement, and with a thought, he chose to summon the assassin from the business card.

As the thought flashed through his mind, Chen Jiajun felt two extremely oppressive auras appear behind him.

"poor guy!"

A deep, powerful voice rang out. Although it was speaking human language, it sounded like the howl of a wild beast, full of oppression and penetrating force.
