Hong Kong variety show: I Am a Tycoon

Upon hearing about Li Yaohua's situation, Chen Jiajun immediately took a plane to Brunei.

That evening, he went to the Presidential Palace and discussed the matter with Li Yaohua.

"Although this sounds like a fantasy, I have a feeling that something is not so simple."

Li Yaohua said with a serious expression, "The other side has very strong intelligence capabilities. They even know to take the Malaysian prince to Indonesia first, and then transfer him there."

Chen Jiajun stroked his chin and said, "Have you asked that mercenary leader yet?"

Chen Jiajun felt that this matter was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen or heard about it before.

Although Chen Jiajun's memory is not very reliable, at least one thing is certain: this plan is definitely feasible to some extent.

Li Yaohua nodded and said, "He Guorong has been interrogating this guy all night, and he's very stubborn."

"Take me to see him!" Chen Jiajun nodded and stood up to say.

Li Yaohua led Chen Jiajun to the secret prison, which was a prison exclusively for the Political Department. Ordinary prisoners were not qualified to enter it.

Upon arriving at the most heavily guarded room on the ground floor, Chen Jiajun saw Smith.

This guy had been tortured by He Guorong to the point of barely clinging to life, his entire body covered in blood, looking extremely gruesome.

Chen Jiajun said to He Guorong with an annoyance, "It's a shame you're not a butcher!"

He Guorong, instead of being ashamed, said with pride, "You know what, there really was someone in my family who was a butcher."

Chen Jiajun was almost amused by the old man's anger, so he could only wave him away and tell him to get lost. He planned to interrogate the guy himself.

Old Evil shook his head at Chen Jiajun and said, "Boss, this guy is strange. Mind reading doesn't work."

Chen Jiajun said calmly, "I'm not here to interrogate him; I'm here to confirm something."

The old man was clearly taken aback: "Confirm? Confirm what?"

Chen Jiajun didn't say much, but simply had someone pull the mercenary captain over and then glanced at his neck.

Sure enough, Chen Jiajun saw a wound on the guy's neck.

"Check if there's a chip inside," Chen Jiajun said to his subordinate with a stern expression.

The young demon slave under his command grinned maliciously and pulled out a dagger, slashing it across the mercenary captain's neck.

Sure enough, we saw a very small chip inside.

But just as the young demon slave was about to remove the chip...

Suddenly, the mercenary captain's face showed a distressed expression.

Then, with a loud "boom," the guy's head exploded like a firework.

Blood, mixed with brain matter and other tissues, splattered directly onto the young demon slave's face.

"This seems to be a kind of insurance?" The old man glanced at the headless corpse, which was still convulsing, with disgust. "This is not something an ordinary person can do."

Chen Jiajun nodded and said, "That's right, it seems the guy behind the scenes has big ambitions!"

The old man asked, puzzled, "But what are they trying to do by making such a fuss?"

Chen Jiajun said casually, "It's about what the Malaysian prince mentioned!"

"Huh?" The old evil man exclaimed in surprise, "There really is someone planning to destroy the world? Isn't that insane?"

Chen Jiajun sneered, "There are plenty of lunatics in this world! How could we normal people know what these guys are thinking?"

"But this bastard seems to be trying to provoke conflict between us and Malaysia? He deliberately arrested people on our territory and even plans to take them to Indonesia!"

The old evil man looked at the headless corpse on the ground speechlessly and said, "Now that this guy is dead, it will be difficult for us to find the person behind it all."

Chen Jiajun sneered and said, "No rush. If they really are as the Malaysian prince said, they will definitely continue to make moves frequently!"

"Let's investigate the existing leads first. I'll take some men directly to London. You also need to be vigilant about what's happening in Brunei. Make sure this doesn't happen again."

Old Evil nodded: "Li Yaohua will definitely be on his guard. I'll talk to him about it later!"

Chen Jiajun nodded: "Very good, I'll head to London now."

After leaving the dungeon, Chen Jiajun had a detailed conversation with Li Yaohua, and the next morning, he led his men directly to London.

This time, Chen Jiajun didn't bring Lao E, but instead brought Silva, who was familiar with England.

Silva did look much younger after taking the life-saving potion, but after so many years as a spy, the damage to his body was difficult to repair.

Unlike Li Yaohua, who lacked vitality, Silva's situation was already beyond saving.

But at least it will allow this old guy to serve me for another ten years or so.

After telling Silva about it, Silva immediately laughed: "Oh ho ho, the world-destroying plan, this is interesting."

Chen Jiajun said calmly, "The other party must be very powerful. Don't let your guard down."

“Of course, but as long as he’s active in England, he won’t escape my grasp,” Silva said confidently.

……

At this time, in Hong Kong.

Phoebe, a member of the Ether Society who has been lurking in Hong Kong causing trouble, has finally made a new move.

He immediately found members of the Brotherhood—oh, no, I should say members of the new Brotherhood.

The original brotherhood suffered a fatal blow under Chen Jiajun's guidance, and even had people like Li Yonglian stabbing them in the back.

This resulted in the original fraternity being almost completely wiped out by the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) investigation department with little resistance.

As for Lai Wing-lim and others, just as expected, not only did they escape unscathed, but they even managed to escape the investigation.

This made Li Yonglian and others quite proud, and Cai Yuanqi even sent Li Yonglian a large sum of money.

If Raymond Lai were to run for the position of Secretary for Justice again, he would likely succeed.

These people were overjoyed to have not only broken free from the Brotherhood's control but also become the masters of their own destiny.

They gathered together, celebrated, and made plans for the future.

In summary, it can be summed up in just two words: "low-key".

Time is entirely on their side. Given enough time, they can completely infiltrate the Hong Kong government, and it's not impossible for them to eventually sit in the Chief Executive's seat.

Just as the group was discussing what to do next, Phoebe showed up at their door.

However, he was looking for Cai Yuanqi, the nominal leader.

“Hello Mr. Cai, we should have met once before,” Phoebe said to Cai Yuanqi with a smile.

Cai Yuanqi nodded, and asked with some surprise, "Why did your Ether Society approach me?"

Phoebe laughed and said, "Of course, Mr. Cai, you are smarter than them! You devised a plan to escape unscathed, which not only did not harm you in the slightest, but also allowed you to get away from Chen Jiajun's scheme."

Cai Yuanqi was very wary of the guys in front of him.

The Ether Society is a purely criminal organization, and getting involved with them would not benefit the Brotherhood in any way.

But this force happens to be rich and powerful, especially when their new brotherhood is in its infancy. If they can get the support of these people, the effect will definitely be twice as good with half the effort.

Cai Yuanqi wasn't one to be easily swayed by flattery. He said to Phoebe, "You flatter me. But what brings you here?"

“Of course, we’re seeking cooperation!” Phoebe said with a smile. “Compared to the Brotherhood that was previously controlled by the English, you are much more cautious and careful in your actions, which is more in line with the Ether Society’s style. I think it would be very pleasant if we cooperated.”

Cai Yuanqi pondered for a moment and said, "So, you didn't think much of the cooperation with them before?"

“Looking for a good opportunity?” Phoebe laughed immediately. “With a local tyrant like Chan Ka-Chun in Hong Kong, how dare they provoke him? It’s like putting their heads in the tiger’s mouth. It would be strange if they didn’t suffer.”

“We at the Ether Society have dealt with Chen Jiajun quite a bit before. He’s like a spring. The more force you apply to him, the fiercer his counterattack will be.” “If you’re careful and don’t provoke him, he won’t bother with anything outside the underworld. See? Am I right?”

Cai Yuanqi agreed wholeheartedly with Phoebe's analysis.

After all, Chen Jiajun has been famous for a long time, and his personality has been studied repeatedly.

Moreover, he never gets involved in government affairs, the reason being to avoid suspicion.

As long as you don't provoke him, he rarely cares about these things.

Cai Yuanqi pondered for a moment, then asked Phoebe, "How do you want to cooperate? Who will take the lead?"

For Cai Yuanqi, control was very important. After losing his position as Commissioner of Police in the last incident, he valued it highly.

After all, those who have experienced and suffered losses will absolutely not allow similar things to happen again.

Phoebe smiled and said, "Hong Kong is your territory, so naturally you're in charge. Our cooperation is simple: you help our Ether Club meet certain conditions, and we'll give you funding, connections, and all the resources you need."

"For example?" Cai Yuanqi was still a little uneasy and asked Phoebe.

Phoebe thought for a moment and said, "For example, if we want to acquire some telecommunications companies in Hong Kong, that shouldn't be a difficult thing for you, right?"

"Is it really that simple?" Cai Yuanqi asked with a strange expression.

“Of course not. We have a series of plans in store, but we can’t reveal them yet,” Phoebe said calmly. “Of course, we can assure you that these plans will absolutely not affect your Brotherhood!”

"How can you guarantee that?"

"Isn't the initiative in your hands? You can terminate our cooperation at any time."

Hearing about the other party's generous terms and incredibly simple request, it would be a lie to say that Cai Yuanqi wasn't tempted.

However, he did not agree immediately. Instead, he said to Phoebe, "I need to think about it for a while. After all, the Brotherhood is not just my brotherhood."

Seeing Cai Yuanqi's pretentious act, Phoebe couldn't help but let out a barely perceptible sneer.

But he still said, "Of course, this is my business card. You can contact me anytime!"

……

London, Big Ben.

Chen Jiajun held an umbrella and looked at the pedestrians on the road, his eyes unfocused.

The weather in London was as awful as ever, with continuous rain all day long, and the abundant moisture seemed to coat one's body with a film.

The pedestrians on the street were all in a hurry and were carrying umbrellas, making it difficult to find anything.

"Boss, they're here!" Dum, who was standing behind Chen Jiajun, suddenly said softly.

Then Chen Jiajun followed Doom's gaze and saw a Mercedes-Benz luxury car.

The obese man in the car was Chen Jiajun's target for this trip.

Based on the intelligence department's investigation and some information from the mercenary captain's memory, Chen Jiajun discovered that the guys sent to kidnap the Malaysian prince were closely related to the fat man in front of him.

"Follow them!" Chen Jiajun said to Dum, and then followed the vehicle.

The car finally stopped in front of a hotel. Chen Jiajun sent someone to find out which room the fat man was staying in before he and Doom went into the hotel.

After booking a room next to Fatty's at the front desk, Chen Jiajun took Dom upstairs.

"Boss, when do we make our move?" the intelligence officer couldn't help but ask.

“It’s late at night, around three o’clock is usually when people are most physiologically sleepy. You need to act quickly and not give the fat man any time to react.” Chen Jiajun instructed his men, “I suspect that the fat man also has a chip in his head, so when you remove the chip, immediately use Orn’s equipment to conduct electromagnetic interference.”

Ever since he learned that these guys had such a protective "device," Chen Jiajun had been searching for a way to crack it.

Fortunately, Chen Jiajun has few other talents under his command, but he has quite a few capable and extraordinary people.

For example, the jamming devices in the hands of these intelligence agents were developed by Orn overnight specifically to deal with these people.

As long as we capture one person alive, with Lao E and Bai Lu around, we're not afraid they won't be able to talk.

Upon hearing Chen Jiajun's words, his intelligence personnel all nodded, ready to get to work at any moment.

The members who had set up listening devices in the next room confirmed that the fat man had fallen asleep, checked the time, and then nodded to the action team to take action.

The intelligence agent quietly opened the fat man's room door with the prepared hotel key and tiptoed inside.

After arriving at the bedroom, the group turned on the jamming device and then pounced on the fat man.

After the fat man was fully awakened, he was tied to a chair, with an Asian man smoking a cigar sitting in front of him.

"Who are you people?" the fat man asked in a terrified expression.

Chen Jiajun said calmly, "You are not qualified to ask questions now. I ask, you answer! Understand?"

The fat man immediately shouted, "Help! Call the police for me!"

Unfortunately, the hotel's soundproofing was quite good; even when the fat man shouted at the top of his lungs, there was still no response.

Chen Jiajun waved his hand, and one of the intelligence agents grinned and punched the fat man in the stomach.

The one who hit him was a young demon slave. Although he didn't use his full strength in that punch, it still made the fat man's face contort in pain.

Chen Jiajun continued, "I ask, you answer! I won't say the same thing a third time! Nod if you understand, otherwise I think you'll be in trouble!"

After being punched, the fat man quickly regained his senses and nodded hurriedly, afraid that Chen Jiajun would have his men teach him a lesson.

Chen Jiajun asked directly, "Whom are you working for?"

Upon hearing Chen Jiajun's question, the fat man's face showed a look of horror. He shut his mouth tightly, shook his head frantically, and didn't say a word.

Chen Jiajun understood as soon as he saw the guy's appearance; he knew about this thing.

Unlike that mercenary captain, he knew who he was working for.

Chen Jiajun glanced at the fat man and said, "Is it that you don't know, or that you can't say?"

"I can't tell, I'll die if I do!" the fat man pleaded. "I have several thousand pounds in my wallet, take it and let me go!"

Chen Jiajun almost laughed out of anger at the fat man: "Do you think we're some kind of burglars breaking into a house?! Are you worried about this thing?"

Chen Jiajun took out a microchip and placed it in front of the man.

The man was immediately alarmed and quickly touched his neck, where he indeed found a fresh wound on his forehead and neck.

However, he was treated and bandaged up, so he wouldn't bleed to death!

Chen Jiajun said with a smile, "I've already taken care of the head-exploding chip you were worried about. Now you can tell me about it, right?"

The fat man shook his head vigorously, refusing to speak.

The intelligence officers were so angry they almost beat him up again.

Fortunately, Chen Jiajun stopped the intelligence officer and said, "What's the use of just beating him up? Let's use some other methods on him!"

Upon hearing Chen Jiajun's words, the intelligence officer immediately burst into laughter.

They dragged the fat man directly to the bathroom, then leaned his chair against the bathtub and tied him up on it.

As a result, the fat man's feet could not touch the ground, and even his struggles seemed so powerless.

The intelligence officer then brought a handkerchief and covered the fat man's face before turning on the tap.

The water gushed out with a "whoosh," causing the fat man's entire body to tremble involuntarily. Clearly, he also knew the severity of water torture.

So he shouted at Chen Jiajun, "I'll talk, I'll tell you everything!"

Chen Jiajun said calmly, "I told you, I don't like to ask questions three times, so... you should just 'enjoy' it for a while!" (End of Chapter)
