Hong Kong variety show: I Am a Tycoon

Just as Mr. Jiang was about to beg for mercy, Old Yu grabbed his chin with a sinister grin: "Mr. Jiang, rules are rules. If we break the rules, how are we supposed to get by in the future? Don't you think so?"

Then, Mr. Jiang's pitiful screams came from inside the villa.

Having dealt with Mr. Jiang, Chen Jiajun took out his phone and dialed Li Wenbin's number: "Wenbin, has your police arrested Guan Youbo yet?"

……

Meanwhile, Chen Jiajun was dealing with Mr. Jiang.

Guan Youbo took a carload of money and went to find his brother, Atao.

At that moment, Atao was burning paper money at the crossroads.

Guan Youbo, looking exhausted, said to him, "Atao, get in the car."

"Let's burn some money for the brothers first," Atao said nonchalantly.

“They are your brothers, not mine,” Guan Youbo said coldly.

Atao sneered, "And what about Afang? We've been friends for decades, you're so cold-blooded. Are you even human?"

As he continued to curse and burn money, Atao completely ignored Guan Youbo and didn't even notice the murderous look in Guan Youbo's eyes.

After he finished burning the paper money, he got into the car and asked Guan Youbo, "Where to?"

"Distribute the money." Guan Youbo didn't say much, but simply drove the car to a secluded area.

The two had another argument in the car, which made Guan Youbo feel even more that he could only escape by killing this guy.

Seeing that the surroundings were deserted, Guan Youbo suddenly slammed on the brakes and got out.

Then he rushed to the back of the car, opened the van door, and said menacingly, "Take the money and leave now. I never want to see you again."

Atao retorted sharply, "Do you think I want to see you?"

As he spoke, he immediately opened the travel bag in the back of the car, revealing stacks of US dollars inside.
Upon seeing the money, Atao's face lit up with a joyful smile. He took out a wad of cash and kissed it hard.

Why did they rob, kill, and cause all this trouble? Wasn't it all for these things?
Just as Atao was busy looking at the money, Guan Youbo suddenly took two steps back and reached behind his waist to take out a cylindrical object.

This thing is also a gun, and its design is somewhat similar to a lipstick gun specifically used for assassination.

Guan Youbo smuggled this thing from Atao's shop.

Today, however, it is used to eliminate Atao, which is somewhat ironic.

Guan Youbo aimed at the back of Atao's head and pressed the button on the back of the cylinder hard.

After hearing a faint sound, Atao, who had been acting somewhat frantically, froze completely.

Then blood streamed down his forehead, staining the knife in his hand red.

After killing Atao, Guan Youbo said with a ferocious expression, "Why did you force me? Why?"

Still not satisfied with what he said, he kicked Atao's corpse several times.

He then immediately went to check his money.

With this money, even if we don't stay in Hong Kong, it's enough for me and my girlfriend to live a comfortable life abroad.

Unfortunately, while handling these banknotes, Guan Youbo, who works in the financial industry, discovered some problems.

Because these banknotes were all consecutively numbered.

It is well known that large sums of consecutively numbered banknotes are generally not for human use.

It was used for fishing.

For example, kidnappers abduct hostages and demand money from them.

At that point, the police would deliver these consecutively numbered banknotes.

These consecutively numbered banknotes are usually registered with the police. As soon as a robber dares to use banknotes within this consecutive number range, the police will immediately notice.

The money Guan Youbo currently possesses is also the kind of money that cannot be made public.

Once used, the police will find out immediately.

Looking at the blood-stained American knives in front of him, Guan Youbo burst into laughter, a wild and maniacal laugh.

For this money, he killed a traffic cop, two of his longtime friends, one killed by the robbers and the other by himself.

In the end, the money turned out to be unusable. Could there be anything more ironic?
After laughing for a while, Guan Youbo gritted his teeth and threw Atao's body into the car. Then he poured gasoline on the pile of US dollars and the body and set it on fire.

After finishing all this, Guan Youbo turned around and walked back.

By the time he got back to his home, it was already past midnight.

After going through so much today, I'm completely exhausted.

But as soon as he opened the door, Guan Youbo saw his girlfriend's tear-streaked face.

Then came the faces of Zhuang Ziwei and a group of police officers.

In the past, Guan Youbo might have even drawn his gun to fight back, but today he really didn't have the strength.

Moreover, he knew that he couldn't escape anymore.

Amidst his girlfriend's disappointed gaze, he was handcuffed and forced into a police car by Zhuang Ziwei.

The next day, Chen Jiajun came to the police station again to find out about Guan Youbo's case.

This guy plotted to rob his bearer bonds, and Chen Jiajun will not let him off the hook, for both moral and legal reasons.

However, Chen Jiajun didn't want to kill this guy in the street. He just needed to get him to Stanley, where the four villains of Hung Hing would give him a good beating.

"Wenbin, how's it going?" Chen Jiajun asked directly as he entered Li Wenbin's office.

Li Wenbin nodded: "Guan Youbo has already confessed, and the evidence we've collected is enough to prosecute him, however..."

Chen Jiajun raised an eyebrow and said, "But what? Don't forget that all the evidence you're using to prosecute Guan Youbo was obtained by me. I only gave the police this face because of my relationship with your father. Otherwise, do you think Guan Youbo would have made it to the police station alive?"

Li Wenbin quickly waved his hand and said, "Uncle Chen, it's not that we're up to anything, it's because of Guan Youbo's boss, Diana, the president of Global Jia Hui Company."

“This woman has been putting pressure on our police superiors recently, intending to protect Kwan Yau-bo at all costs. In fact, we wanted to sue him last time, but this woman ruined it.”

Chen Jiajun sneered, "It's that woman again. What a simp. She'll do anything for Guan Youbo? I think she's courting death."

Li Wenbin spread his hands and said, "Zhuang Ziwei is also quite annoyed. We arrested people but couldn't arrest him, which is very frustrating for our police."

"Hmph. Since your police force can't arrest him, don't blame me." Chen Jiajun snorted coldly and got up to leave Li Wenbin's office.
Hearing Chen Jiajun's words, Li Wenbin felt a headache coming on.

He knew he couldn't let Chen Jiajun act recklessly, otherwise the situation the police had worked so hard to create would be ruined.

The Hong Kong police already don't have a very good image in the eyes of ordinary citizens.

After all, the Hong Kong police force in the 1960s and 70s colluded with triads.

Hong Kong residents already have a sense of distrust towards the police.

What would be the consequences if Chen Jiajun were to handle this matter on his own now?
These wealthy people in Hong Kong no longer trust the police force and instead use their own methods to get things done.

The consequences of this are devastating for the Hong Kong police force.

So Li Wenbin quickly contacted his father and explained Chen Jiajun's attitude.

Upon hearing this news, Li Shutang, who was attending a meeting at the General Administration, immediately wanted to curse.

His son had previously managed to calm Chen Jiajun down and get him to cooperate with the police.

Now that this kind of thing has happened again, does it mean that someone in the police force's upper echelons doesn't want to keep their job?
So before the meeting even ended, Li Shutang walked out of the meeting room and went directly to the director's office to find Han Yili.

After recounting the details of the incident, Han Yili was also quite troubled: "But the president of this Global Jia Hui Bank has some connections with the director of the Security Bureau."

Li Shutang said coldly, "The Security Bureau is the Security Bureau, and the police force is the police force. We cannot disregard the safety of our police force just because of the Security Bureau."

“You should know Chen Jiajun better than I do. As an invisible leader in the left-wing business community, what kind of damage would it do to our police force's reputation if he just made a move? What if all those wealthy people follow suit?”

"And as the top cop in the police force, do you think this has nothing to do with you? You'll be the first to suffer the consequences."

Hearing Li Shutang's analysis, Han Yili also realized the seriousness of the matter.

After hesitating for a moment, he said to Li Shutang, "Li, what you said makes a lot of sense. What are Sir Chen's demands?"

Li Shutang breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Han Yili agree, and said, "Chen Jiajun's meaning is very simple. He just wants to send Guan Youbo to prison."

"It's that simple?" Han Yili said in disbelief. "It's that simple," Li Shutang said with certainty.

Having dealt with Chen Jiajun for so many years, Li Shutang knew the guy's personality very well.

After Guan Youbo goes to prison, he will die a violent death not long after.

However, this was not within Li Shutang's consideration.

It wasn't even on the police's radar; this guy was the ringleader of the robbery, and nobody cared whether he lived or died.

Han Yili clearly didn't care much, so he nodded and said, "Then let's do it your way. I'll personally explain the pros and cons to the Security Bureau."

To secure her position, Han Yi-ri would personally visit the Security Bureau.

My own position is more important than giving face to the president of Global Joy Company.

After dealing with Han Yili, Li Shutang personally went to find Chen Jiajun.

"The top foreign boss has agreed to send Guan Youbo to Stanley. Are you satisfied now?" Li Shutang said somewhat helplessly, "He's just a robber. Did you really need to make such a big fuss about it?"

Chen Jiajun shook his head and said, "If I don't make a big fuss, will anyone take charge? Those foreigners are just busy making money because the handover is coming soon. Look at the state of security in Hong Kong."

"Now they've gotten themselves into this mess with me. I can't even imagine what those robbers will do next."

Li Shutang said helplessly, "We've mentioned it to the foreigners many times, but they don't seem to care much. I even suspect that many of these things were deliberately orchestrated by the foreigners."

"Do you think these petty tricks will make your hometown back down?" Chen Jiajun shook his head and sneered, "Nonsense."

Li Shutang sighed and said, "All I can do now is maintain the reputation of the Hong Kong Police Force. In two more years, I'll be old enough to retire."

Chen Jiajun shrugged and said, "Then the Hong Kong police force will look bad. If two more major incidents happen, they'll probably tear off your last fig leaf."

Li Shutang snorted and said, "I'll handle Guan Youbo's matter. Just don't cause me any trouble."

"Okay, since you've said that, I'll give you that face again," Chen Jiajun said nonchalantly.

Meanwhile, Diana followed her lawyer to the West Kowloon Police Station.

Diana had already used all her connections to successfully bail Guan Youbo out last time.

Moreover, this was when the evidence against Guan Youbo was insufficient.

This time is different. Guan Youbo has confessed, and with sufficient evidence, it will be extremely difficult to get him out of trouble.

So Diana simply went to her boss, the CEO of Global Jia Hui Company, and asked him to intervene, citing the favor she had done for him in securing many large deals. She persuaded the head of the security bureau to change his mind, which finally got the police to back down.

Diana immediately went to the police station with her lawyer to wait to see Guan Youbo.
Diana knew nothing about the specifics, so she handed it over to her lawyer.

But after waiting for a long time, she did not see Guan Youbo come out.

Instead, he saw a complicated expression on his lawyer's face.

"What happened? Where is everyone?" Diana asked immediately.

The lawyer shook his head and said, "Miss Diana, it's not convenient to talk here. Let's find another place."

Seeing the lawyer's expression, Diana immediately knew things had changed. She got up and left the police station with the lawyer, going to a coffee shop outside.
After the two sat down, Diana asked impatiently, "What exactly happened? Why won't the police release him?"

The lawyer said with a serious expression, "It's even more complicated than that. The security bureau has also changed their tune."

"Why?" Diana's eyes widened immediately.

The lawyer sighed and said, "You probably don't know who Guan Youbo is robbing this time, do you?"

"Isn't it just a branch of Berman Brothers, an investment bank? How much influence can an American have in Hong Kong?" Diana said, puzzled.

The lawyer patiently explained, "Although the target of the robbery was Berman Brothers, the bearer bonds belonged to Chen Jiajun, the owner of Guojun Group."

“What? Chan Ka-Chun?” Diana’s eyes widened immediately. “You mean that Chan Ka-Chun, the so-called ‘King of Hong Kong’?”

The lawyer nodded and said, "That's why I said this matter is complicated. If you want the police to release him, you have to persuade Sir Chen; otherwise, even if the Secretary for Security comes, it won't make a difference."

"The recent spate of robberies targeting wealthy individuals has greatly angered many of Hong Kong's rich. If the perpetrators are caught but not prosecuted, the police will face significant trouble."

Upon hearing the lawyer's words, Diana's expression turned troubled.

Getting her boss to speak to the head of the security bureau was already the limit of what she could do.

This is under the premise that the two people are in a relationship.

His company currently has no business dealings with Chen Jiajun, so how should he bring this up?
The lawyer kindly advised, "I've heard that Mr. Chen Jiajun has a triad background. I suggest you give up on this matter. Let Guan Youbo go in for two years first, and then I'll get him medical parole."

“No.” Diana refused decisively upon hearing this, then gritted her teeth and said, “I’m going to talk to Chen Jiajun.”

The lawyer knew that Diana loved Guan Youbo deeply, so he could only sigh and remain silent.

That afternoon, Diana went directly to the Guojun Group.

The Guojun Group building has undergone several renovations, and the company's entrance looks extremely impressive.

Chen Jiajun did not buy the building because he was observing the situation.

Because Chen Jiajun remembered that before the handover, Hong Kong's property market experienced another sharp drop, and that was the right time for him to make his move.

Diana walked directly into the Guojun Group, where the receptionist immediately greeted her with a smile, "Welcome to the Guojun Group. How can I help you, Miss?"

Diana stated directly, "I want to see your chairman, Sir Chen Jiajun."

"A meeting with the chairman? Do you have an appointment?" the receptionist asked, somewhat surprised.

Diana shook her head and said, "No, but could you please inform him that Diana, the vice president of Global Jia Hui Investment Company, wants to meet with Mr. Chen?"

Upon hearing that Diana was someone of considerable importance, the receptionist nodded and said, "Okay, I'll transfer you to the secretariat."

Just a moment later, the secretariat informed them that Chen Jiajun had time to meet with Diana. The receptionist then pointed to the elevator next to them and said, "You can take the elevator directly to the chairman's office on the top floor. The chairman is available right now."

Diana took the elevator directly to the top floor, where she met Chen Jiajun in an extravagantly large office.

Chen Jiajun's youth surprised her somewhat; his handsome appearance made him look more like a movie star than a big boss.

Upon seeing Diana's arrival, Chen Jiajun politely greeted her, "Ms. Diana, Vice President of Global Jia Hui Investment? Please have a seat."

Diana didn't stand on ceremony and sat down directly opposite Chen Jiajun.

Chen Jiajun said with a smile, "It seems that our Guojun Group has no business dealings with Global Jia Hui Investment Company, right? Miss Diana, what brings you here today?"

Diana didn't mince words and stated her purpose directly: "Mr. Chen, I'm here today to talk to you about something, about Guan Youbo."

Diana adopted the same negotiating attitude she used to have when speaking to Chen Jiajun.

Clearly, in her view, Chen Jiajun was a big boss who had risen to such a position in just a few years, and must be someone who valued profit above all else.

Diana believed that if she could offer Chen Jiajun a satisfactory benefit, he would definitely agree.

But upon hearing Diana's words, Chen Jiajun immediately revealed a mocking smile: "Guan Youbo's matter? You want to talk to me about it? What right do you have to talk to me about it?"

Upon hearing Chen Jiajun's words, Diana's face immediately darkened.

She hadn't expected Chen Jiajun to be so disrespectful.

Chen Jiajun sneered and continued, "You, a deputy general manager of a branch of Global Jia Hui Investment, come to my Guojun Group to talk business with me. Do you think you're qualified?"

"Don't think you're so great just because you've reached the position of vice president in a foreign company. You should know your place. At your level, you're not qualified to talk business with me. If there's nothing else, you can leave."

Diana was born into a relatively wealthy family. Not only was she beautiful, but she was also exceptionally capable.

From childhood to adulthood, I've always been treated like royalty, even in a foreign company. I've never experienced such humiliation before.

In a moment of impulsiveness, he said to Chen Jiajun, "Chen Jiajun, what right do you, a former gangster, have to talk to me about hierarchy?"

However, as soon as she said those words, she regretted it.

Clearly, this is not meant to solve problems, but rather to create conflict.

Chen Jiajun's tone suddenly turned sinister: "That's right, I forgot if you hadn't reminded me. Do you believe that if you dare to say another word of nonsense in front of me, I'll break your limbs and throw you into Portland Street to work as a prostitute?"

Upon hearing this, Diana turned deathly pale.

She could tell from Chen Jiajun's tone that the young and handsome man in front of her was not joking.

For a moment, Diana dared not say another word. (End of Chapter)
