Hong Kong Movies: I am Hongxing, what the hell is the intelligence king?

Chapter 433 A Real Deal, A Real Deal!
"The tycoon committed suicide at the military base?"

Brown paused slightly, sipping his coffee.

The company secretary sighed:
"According to TVB reports, he learned yesterday that his shares had been mortgaged to Hung Hing, turning him from a prominent figure in Hong Kong into a penniless man, and he committed suicide."

Brown looked at him with amusement:
"Do you believe?"

The company secretary was speechless.

How should I put this?

I understand everything!

Anyway, some time ago, Richard, the senior inspector of the police station's political department, was shot seven or eight times in the back, but the political department's conclusion was that he committed suicide.

What's so surprising about a tycoon committing suicide?

If he were still that powerful and wealthy tycoon in Hong Kong, everyone would definitely be investigating how he died.

now?
Who the hell cares!

Brown thought for a moment and then gave the order:
"Check out the family members of the super-rich."

The company secretary's pupils contracted, and he couldn't help but ask:
Are they checking in Chongqing too?

Brown nodded slightly:

"check!"

The company secretary went immediately.

Half an hour later, he stumbled back.

"Sir, you were absolutely right."

"The entire wealthy family has been involved in an accident."

"The family members of a Hong Kong tycoon died in a fire."

"The young tycoon also died of an acute myocardial infarction."

Brown mocked:
"Shen Daban has really done a lot of harm."

He waved his hand.

“We had some unpleasantness with Chongqing before, but now that the storm has subsided, we should at least make amends.”

"Tell the public relations department to suppress the news of the tycoon's family member's death."

The company secretary was taken aback and said:
"no need?"

Brown said calmly:
“Before, because of what happened with Shen Daban, the men in Chongqing didn’t like us very much.”

"It's obvious that the 'little tycoon' thing was done in Chongqing."

"Who do you think will be on the side of the tycoon?"

The company secretary naturally replied:

"Whoever it is, they must have received General Cunningham's permission."

Brown shrugged:

"Don't you understand this?"

"The combined efforts from both sides are clearly aimed at eliminating the root of the problem."

"We don't need to help in Chongqing, but let's put in some effort in Hong Kong."

Seeing the secretary's troubled expression, Brown smiled.

"You don't actually think that if we don't put in the effort, others can't do this, do you?"

"Let's not even talk about whether this news will cause a sensation..."

The company secretary shook his head:
"Even if this news gets out, it won't have any impact on General Cunningham."

"After all, the death of a tycoon is the official characterization."

"Even if we were to suspect someone, we would suspect the Governor's Mansion, not General Cunningham."

“If they want to raise questions, they have to raise questions about the Governor’s Mansion first.”

"Besides, what does what happened in Hong Kong have to do with you noble gentlemen?"

Brown laughed heartily:

"Don't you understand?"

"Suppressing this news is merely to show our stance."

The company secretary suddenly realized:

"Your insight is excellent, sir."

"I'll go and give the order right away."

When the company secretary returned, Brown gave the instructions:

"Help me make an appointment with Mr. Li Qiankun of Hung Hing Group."

"I want to pay him a visit."

The company secretary smiled wryly:
"This……"

Brown glanced at him:
"Just say what you want to say."

The company secretary said cautiously:
"Sir, we were just fighting a major battle with Li Sheng and his men, and now we're taking the initiative to come to their doorstep. Doesn't that seem a bit... like we're showing weakness?"

Brown shook his head:
"Business is business."

“We used to be adversaries, now we’re partners. How can we possibly stay like this forever?”

The company secretary smiled wryly:
"We were fighting to the death just two days ago, and now we've made up. How will people look at us?"

Brown sighed:
"That's not something a businessman should say."

“Businessmen pursue profit.”

"They can fight to the death for a goal, and they can also be inseparable for the same goal."

The company secretary sighed:

"Of course I know that."

"But the problem is..."

"If we go up to them like this, will they agree to it?"

Brown gave him a strange look:
Why wouldn't you agree?

"We were enemies before."

"Now, we have a new member on our board of directors. That Chairman Ye has a rather unusual relationship with Hung Hing."

Is there any further question?

Setting down his coffee, Brown said earnestly,
"This whole thing was started by Shen Daban."

“Now that Shen Daban has disappeared, the focus of the conflict between the two sides has been removed. With Chairman Ye also present, there is naturally no problem at all.”

"Also, although we suffered a setback this time, it's actually a good thing."

"HSBC's strength has not been damaged; on the contrary, it has gained two strong allies."

“Swire and our hometown are providing us with even more support.”

"I originally thought this year's financial report would be bad."

"But look at HSBC's share price, it has already risen by a third!"

Brown smiled with his lips pursed:

"I believe that by the end of the year, our stock price will at least double."

"Not only can it recover to the level before the stock market crash, but it can even go further."

The company secretary couldn't help but ask:
"Sir, you really have no issues with Mr. Lam of Hung Hing?"

"That person was the one who orchestrated the run on the bank."

Brown's eyes sharpened:
"Who told you to ask that kind of question?"

The company secretary hurriedly said:
"There's no one else, it's just that I'm very curious about this kind of thing."

Brown snorted coldly:
"You shouldn't be curious about these kinds of things."

"But since you asked, I'll answer you."

"Personally, Lin Sheng attacked us to avenge his father-in-law. He is a man of great loyalty and righteousness."

"This kind of person is the most clear about gratitude and resentment."

"If he's his friend, he won't cheat you."

"If he were your enemy, you would have no peace of mind."

"From an official standpoint, this is a very common business practice."

"Everyone in Hong Kong knows that behind every tycoon, big or small, stands Shen Daban."

"Lin Sheng's target is the Dafuhao Group, not our HSBC Bank."

“He hit us to teach us a lesson and make us stop getting involved in this kind of thing.”

"And that is indeed the case."

"Otherwise, Swire's billion pounds would all be lost here."

Brown still feels lingering fear when he thinks about what happened that day.

The stock market is a battlefield without visible smoke.

When Swire went long on £1 billion, Brown and HSBC executives and related personnel all thought they had it in the bag.

However, a massive short seller with a net worth of tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars suddenly appeared in my hometown.

Add to that the speculative capital that Yum! Fund is struggling with.

So what if Swire has a billion pounds?
None of them can escape!
If Swire Group hadn't sensed the unfavorable situation and made contact with Lin Feng through their hometown connections, HSBC might have changed hands!

Even so, the board of directors added a director from their hometown surnamed Ye.

That's how the matter was resolved.

After settling things off with HSBC, Yum! Brands immediately placed a massive short order worth tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars with the Grand Fortune Group.

The stock of the Dafuhao Group continued its downward spiral.

No matter how hard the shareholders tried to save it, it was no use.

The stock price of the Dafuhao Group almost fell below the breaking point.

Then, Yum! Brands made a big bottom-fishing move.

They acquired almost all the circulating shares in the stock market.

That's all there is to say.

One of Lin Feng's conditions for withdrawing from the HSBC Group was that he would acquire the shares of the Dafuhao Group at 30% of the market price.

Thus, Hung Hing "easily" achieved a great victory with a small investment.

After the Da Fu Hao Group changed its name to Hung Hing Group, the run on the bank disappeared without a trace.

Even Brown was astonished by Lin Feng's ruthless methods.

This kind of tactic doesn't seem like something a twenty-year-old would use.

Ordinary people's legs go weak just from hearing the name of HSBC Group.

But this guy actually dared to go against the grain.

That's truly remarkable.

Heroes emerge from among the young!

Brown genuinely felt that he would rather face off against those established business elites than against Lin Feng.

It's so fucking scary.

One such experience is enough.

He really couldn't take it if it happened again.

Making peace with Li Qiankun—and mainly Lin Feng—has become his top priority.

Or rather, even if they don't reconcile, as long as Lin Feng stops targeting them, that's enough!
These are Sir Brown's true feelings.

The company secretary left quickly, but returned shortly afterward.

He also had a strange expression on his face.

Brown was puzzled:
"What did Mr. Li say?"

The company secretary smiled wryly:
"Sir, Mr. Li said he doesn't have time today."

Brown asked, puzzled:
"Isn't it normal to not have time?"

"Why do you look like this?"

The company secretary sighed:

"Mr. Li is attending a movie premiere." Brown was taken aback:

"Li Sheng's status is no longer what it used to be."

"Who has such influence that they can get him to attend?"

After Hung Hing Group acquired Tai Fu Hao Group, it soared to new heights, completely different from before.

Li Qiankun is always the focus of public attention wherever he appears.

Even the governor had to greet him.

Brown really didn't think anyone would bother him to attend a movie premiere.

The company secretary smiled wryly:
"The board of directors of Hung Hing!"

Ok? !

Brown's eyes widened:
"What did you say?"

The company secretary explained:
"real."

"At first I thought Mr. Li was just giving me the runaround."

"On second thought, that didn't make sense. Someone of Li Sheng's status wouldn't need to lie to me."

"Then I looked up the movie that was about to be released."

"Hey!"

"It really was filmed by Hung Hing Group."

"The actors are even more remarkable; they are members of their board of directors."

Brown was stunned:

"real or fake?"

The company secretary shrugged:

"It's true, but Mr. Lin Sheng didn't participate, nor did Mr. Jiang Tianyang."

Brown immediately became interested:

"What kind of movie?"

The company secretary's expression became even stranger:

"Young and Dangerous!"

Brown's mouth dropped open:
"what?!"

The company secretary shook his head, puzzled:
"I don't know why they made such a movie."

"However, it is clearly true."

Brown thought for a moment, then clapped his hands and said:
"Find out where the premiere will be held right away."

"We sent a flower basket to congratulate them on behalf of the company."

He was afraid the company secretary hadn't understood.
"Remember, it's a flower basket, not a wreath!"

Company Secretary: "..."

At the entrance of the Lao Liu Cinema, Uncle Liu, the owner of TV station, chatted with Liang Kun with a smile.

All the directors of Hung Hing were present.

Not only that, but all the leaders or heads of the top ten gangs in the martial arts world were also present.

However, they did not stand with Liang Kun; they all sat quietly in the audience.

The sage of Hexingsheng said to the sage of Xinliansheng:
"When a man has been away for three days, he should be looked at with new eyes."

“I know that Mr. Li and Mr. Lin are not ordinary people.”

"But this change is too fast, isn't it?"

“A few days ago, when I saw him, I addressed him as Ah Kun or Ah Feng as a sign of respect.”

"Now, we don't even dare to get close to them; we can only call them Mr. Li and Mr. Lin."

"The truth is bizarre!"

Mr. Jin smiled and said:
"You can see all sorts of things when you live a long life."

"It is not good?"

"Two dragons have emerged from the short mules in our martial arts world."

The master said seriously:
"What dwarf mules? Did you see a number of riot control vehicles ready to protect dwarf mules at any time?"

"We've also benefited from Hung Hing's influence and are enjoying the treatment of the Duchess."

There were indeed several anti-riot vehicles on standby at the entrance of Lao Liu Cinema today.

They were worried that something dangerous might happen inside the movie theater.

Wong Bing-yiu of the West Kowloon Headquarters, wearing large sunglasses, sat in the audience with Chan Yan-kin.

Chen Xinjian sighed deeply:
"Boss, did you ever imagine this day would come?"

“We’re protecting Leung Kwan like we’re protecting a political figure.”

Huang Bingyao glared at him:
"What 'handsome Kun,' that's Mr. Li."

Chen Xinjian disagreed.

Huang Bingyao solemnly said:
“Li Sheng’s status has changed. He is no longer just a leading figure in Hung Hing, but also a leading figure in Hong Kong.”

"We can't treat him like we used to."

"You will soon see them at the banquet at the Governor's mansion."

Chen Xinjian felt completely bewildered.

"Why would I go to the Governor's banquet?"

"Is that kind of place even a place I should be able to go?"

Huang Bingyao said with a smile:
"Why can't you go?"

"Weren't you standing guard in your military uniform?"

Chen Xinjian: "..."

It's true, every time there's a banquet at the Governor's mansion, these police superintendents take turns standing guard at the entrance in their uniforms.

In the past, Chen Xinjian wouldn't have thought much of it.

In any case, those who can attend the banquet at the Governor's Mansion are of extraordinary status, and he will not have any interaction with them.

If you could get to know him, it would naturally be of great benefit to your future.

However, if the members of Hung Hing attend the banquet and find themselves standing guard...

Chen Xinjian simply couldn't bear to think about it anymore; the scene was absolutely terrifying!
"Boss, do we really have to participate in something like this?"

Huang Bingyao glanced at him indifferently:
"What do you say?"

Chen Xinjian shook his head with a wry smile.

He really doesn't want to go.

But it seems that this task cannot be avoided.

Superintendent Chen was restless; he felt like there were ants crawling on his bottom.

Huang Bingyao said with a smile:
"That's a good thing."

Chen Xinjian complained:

"What a wonderful thing this is!"

“I’ve been at odds with them my whole life, always looking down on them, and now it’s the other way around?”

Huang Bingyao shrugged:

"People must believe in fate."

"Now that he's soared to great heights, he's even qualified to speak with the Governor."

"There are no longer any people who can look down on them—at least not in Hong Kong."

"They are already true members of high society, so what are you dissatisfied with?"

"Our West Kowloon Headquarters has a pretty good relationship with Hung Hing."

"If they are willing to put in the effort, you can still go further if you want."

Chen Xinjian fell into deep thought.

After Huang Bingyao had considered it for a while, he finally said:
"Li Sheng and Lin Sheng are from the Jianghu (江湖, the martial arts world)."

Even if they become top figures in high society now, it doesn't change their origins.

"And they obviously won't deny that."

"Otherwise, this movie wouldn't have been released."

Chen Xinjian nodded repeatedly:
"That's right!"

All the bigwigs from Hung Hing Group made an appearance in the movie "Young and Dangerous".

Even members of the Tung Sing gang made cameo appearances.

If people like "Brother Kun" are really bothered by their background, given their status, they can simply choose not to have the film released.

However, they still released the movie.

The implication is self-evident.

Huang Bingyao smiled and said:
"The Hung Hing triad has risen to power, but all the leading figures of Hong Kong's ten major triads have come to support them."

"These kinds of relationships in the underworld can't be severed so easily."

"Whether Hung Hing pays attention to them or not is one thing, but these triad members definitely want to leverage Hung Hing's connections."

"If you establish a good relationship with the Hung Hing Group, you won't have to worry about anything else, at least not in terms of triads."

"The thing we police station hate most is dealing with triads."

"As long as Li Sheng and Lin Sheng give the word, who would dare not give them face?"

Chen Xinjian nodded repeatedly as he listened.

"Aside from cases involving triads, what difficulty is there for our police station to solve other cases?"

"As long as you build a good relationship with them, any news is just a matter of a word."

Chen Xinjian's eyes grew brighter and brighter.

But before Huang Bingyao could finish speaking, he pointed to the flower baskets on the stage and said:

"You can see the influence of Hung Hing Group from these flower baskets."

"Not to mention that Uncle Six from TVB personally accompanied us."

"Just those flower baskets alone are enough to leave people speechless."

"Standard Chartered, Henderson Land, New Henderson Land, Hongkong Land, Wharf Holdings..."

"Which big company or corporation that's known in Hong Kong doesn't send flower baskets to congratulate them?"

“Even Swire and HSBC, the parties involved in the previous stock market battle with Hung Hing Group, sent flower baskets.”

"What does this mean?"

Chen Xinjian thought for a moment and said:
"Did Hung Hing subdue them?"

Huang Bingyao grinned:
"I don't know if I've beaten them into submission."

"But I know."

“Swire and HSBC are eager to repair their relationship with Hung Hing.”

"This is true."

“Even such giants, those giants who have great grudges against Hung Hing, bowed their heads and tried to repair their relationship.”

What are you still hesitating about?

Chen Xinjian suddenly realized:
"Boss, you're truly insightful!"

Yes, can we compare ourselves to giants like Swire and HSBC?

They were all eager to repair their relationship with the Hung Hing Group.

I already had a good relationship with them, so why should I hesitate if I don't take advantage of the situation?

So pretentious!

Huang Bingyao nodded with satisfaction. Just as he was about to speak, someone came up to him. He looked up and saw that it was Li Fu!
"Mr. Li, what brings you here?"

Huang Bingyao hurriedly stood up.

Li Fu chuckled lightly:
"Mr. Huang, please stay a moment after the movie. Brother Feng wants to see you."

Huang Bingyao was flattered.
