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

Chapter 442 Methods of Integrating the Martial World

"Lin Sheng's judgment is undoubtedly first-rate; I trust him."

Big Circle Leopard readily agreed.

He used this alias to visit Hong Kong repeatedly in order to investigate Hong Kong's triad societies.

The fact that Hong Kong is full of triads really surprised Big Circle Leopard.

This kind of thing would be completely unimaginable back in my hometown.

Of course, there were times like that back home too. However, after a crackdown, all the thugs learned their lesson and only dared to sneak out, no longer daring to cause trouble.

Anyone who dares to secretly expand and strengthen their operations is simply boosting the local police department's performance targets.

However, six or seven years have passed, and many people have forgotten the time when their hometown was cracking down hard. A new group of petty thugs have emerged.

History always progresses in a spiral.

Big Circle Leopard was very concerned about the situation in Hong Kong. He contacted several triads, including the New Journalists Association.

What's valued is the flexibility of the person in charge.

Lao Xiang is involved in the legitimate world, while Lao Lin is involved in the underworld.

The combination of black and white is quite stable.

Big Circle Leopard knew that Lao Xiang was leaving himself a way out; otherwise, he wouldn't have chosen him.

However, once Lin Feng rose to prominence, Big Circle Leopard instantly abandoned Lao Xiang.

What a joke.

With Lin Sheng spending lavishly in mainland China, what qualifications does Lao Xiang have to be the one to dominate the underworld?

Big Circle Leopard genuinely wants to support Lin Feng as the top figure in Hong Kong's underworld.

But plans can't always keep up with changes. Before his plan could even be implemented, Lin Feng had already soared to great heights!

Hong Kong's richest man!
Whose richest person is involved in the underworld?

That outcome will definitely not be good.

Anyone who isn't blinded by greed would never dirty their hands.

There's no other way; we have to keep looking for people.

However, Big Circle Leopard didn't have time to think about this. Firstly, he had too many things to deal with with Hung Hing, and secondly, there was still a long way to go before Hong Kong returned to its homeland.

These alone are enough to keep the Big Circle Leopard busy.

Unexpectedly, Lin Feng had already found a suitable candidate for him.

Luo Zhiming is perfect!
He came from a police background and had a strong sense of justice.

Even when it wasn't his responsibility, being undercover made his conscience tormented, and he might even voluntarily go to jail in order to seek forgiveness from his soul.

Actually, from an undercover perspective, this whole thing is a bit far-fetched.

Three years of blank space!
However, as an individual, such a person is quite charming.

Big Circle Leopard saw right through him: Luo Zhiming was the kind of traditional gentleman from his hometown—a traditional gentleman who was willing to sacrifice.

With such a person selected, there's no need to worry about him betraying national interests.

Another point is that Luo Zhiming's identity is now clear, so there are no worries about the future.

Furthermore, thanks to Lin Feng's support, Luo Zhiming's prestige not only spread throughout Xinliansheng, but also became renowned throughout the martial arts world.

This fulfills another condition.

If this kind of person is not suitable, then what kind of person is suitable?

Luo Zhiming smiled wryly:

"Lin Sheng, Brother Leopard, I'm not as confident as you two."

He was telling the truth.
"Dominating the industry is not my dream; my dream is to lead the transformation of 50,000 employees of Xinliansheng."

"This involves a total of 50,000 people and 50,000 families."

"I don't want them to continue in the underworld, and I certainly don't want to see parents outlive their children."

The leopard looked serious.
"Don't worry, our goal is to eliminate the gang."

"However, Hong Kong has its own unique characteristics."

Lin Feng took it and said:

"A society where everything revolves around money is the most terrifying thing for ordinary people."

"What kind of people are these people in the eyes of foreigners and high-ranking officials?"

"To put it bluntly, they are just consumables, just cold, hard numbers."

"Not just in Hong Kong."

"Even in the foggy city, this is true."

"With such a government in place, the conditions for the emergence of social organizations will certainly exist."

"If you want to eliminate triads in Hong Kong, you'll have to implement the same system as back home."

Everyone was silent.

Everyone knows it's impossible. The old man from my hometown said that Hong Kong's system will remain unchanged.

The big-circled leopard sighed:
"That's why I'm so eager to travel to and from Hong Kong."

"The association cannot expand; it can only shrink."

Lin Feng explained:
"The idea from my hometown is that all the small triads in Hong Kong should disappear, and it would be fine if two or three could be preserved."

Luo Zhiming exclaimed:

"Two or three clubs?"

"How is that possible?"

Lin Feng waved his hand:
"Nothing is impossible."

"Firstly, after Hong Kong returned to its homeland, its own people are in charge and will never allow the gangs to run rampant like the foreigners do."

"Secondly, after Hong Kong's return to China, we have more job opportunities because we are backed by our hometown, and it is very easy to make money."

"That way, not many people will be out there trying to make a living."

"How many members of these clubs these days actually have enough to eat three meals a day?"

"Many people don't even know where their next meal will come from."

"Aren't the Thirteen Protectors of Tsz Wan Shan awesome?"

"Don't you often sleep under bridges?"

"Only a minority of people are truly able to have enough to eat."

"There is a decent job in front of them that can provide them with enough to eat and wear, and give them a decent life."

Do you think they'll still be involved in gangs?

Everyone fell silent.

Luo Zhiming smiled wryly:

"But the future is the future, and the present is the present."

"Now there are ten major triads in Hong Kong, and even your Hung Hing has people who are not convinced."

"My New Union Society is no match for Hung Hing, how can we possibly intimidate all the other triads?"

"I wish I could share some of the confidence you two big shots have."

Luo Zhiming did not object to accepting the task.

In his view, having his hometown as a backing is a blessing that others can only dream of.

However, this task is really difficult.

Luo Zhiming lacked confidence.

Lin Feng smiled:

"When have I ever made things difficult for my brothers?"

Luo Zhiming was overjoyed:
"Lin Sheng, do you have an idea?"

Lin Feng smiled and said:

"Yes, I have."

"It's not difficult to do this."

Luo Zhiming said speechlessly:

"But no matter how I think about it, I can't figure out how to do it well."

Lin Feng casually said:
"Actually, you only need to do one thing."

Luo Zhiming quickly asked for advice:
"whats the matter?"

Lin Feng shrugged:

"There's nothing else. As long as Xinliansheng keeps making money and can feed and clothe the brothers, and can earn money to support their families, that's enough."

Luo Zhiming was greatly alarmed:
"Isn't this difficult?"

"Xinliansheng has 50,000 members!"

This matter seems easy, but a closer look reveals just how much pressure it involves.

The average worker in Hong Kong now earns three thousand dollars a month.

The gangsters in the triad should also be paid around three thousand. How much is the monthly expenditure?
HK$1.5 million!

This pressure could crush most organizations.

How could Luo Zhiming not be shocked?

You don't know the cost of firewood and rice until you're in charge of the household; once you are, you'd want to split every dollar in half!
Lin Feng waved his hand:
"Ah Luo, I never betray my brothers."

"If I say this task is suitable for you, I will naturally find a way out for you."

Luo Zhiming was skeptical.

Lin Feng explained:
"Before you arrived, I chatted with Brother Leopard for a while."

"Brother Leopard, what did I just say?"

The large-circled leopard horse said:

"You want to take over all the ingredients in Hong Kong."

Lin Feng clapped his hands and said:
“That’s right, this is the business I gave to A Luo.”

Luo Zhiming was taken aback:
"Ingredients?"

Lin Feng smiled slightly:

"To be specific, it is your Xinliansheng that is monopolizing the market."

"The main staples are rice, flour, grains, oil, vegetables, and livestock."

“Hong Kong is a coastal city, so it’s not easy to monopolize seafood.”

Luo Zhiming didn't react for a moment:

"This will solve my problem."

Lin Feng laughed heartily:

"Ah Luo, if you do this well, becoming a Hong Kong tycoon will be no problem at all."

Luo Zhiming exclaimed in horror:

"Brother Feng, you're not joking, are you?"

Lin Feng curled his lips:
Do you know which business is the most profitable?

Luo Zhiming shook his head.

"In this life, one cannot live without the four words: food, clothing, shelter, and transportation."

"If you can monopolize any one of them, you might become the richest person in the world."

"Hong Kong has a large population but little land, and the land produces almost no output."

"More than a hundred years ago, this was just a fishing village where people made a living by fishing."

"Things are different now than they were a hundred years ago, but they're not that different either."

"Our food and even water supply actually depend on the supply from our hometown."

"How about I do the math for you?"

Lin Feng raised his index finger.

"Let's not talk about anything else, let's just talk about pork."

"Currently, the market price for pork in Hong Kong is as high as twelve to fifteen dollars per pound,"

"Back in my hometown, a pound of pork costs one yuan."

“If you buy the goods from your hometown, the price you pay will naturally not reach twelve yuan... at most four yuan.”

"After currency conversion, you still have half the profit." "Ignoring all costs, you can earn two yuan per pound of pork."

Hong Kong has six million people.

"If we calculate based on each family needing one pound of meat per day, we can earn two million in a single day."

"You can earn 60 million in a month."

"Note that this is all profit!"

"It is the profit after deducting all costs."

"So, you think this business is not viable?"

Luo Zhiming gasped sharply.
"It's really that profitable?"

Lin Feng rolled his eyes:
"This is only to cooperate with the work in our hometown. Otherwise, would I let you do such a profitable business?"

Luo Zhiming was overjoyed:
"Thank you, Brother Feng."

He is a smart man; pork is just one of his businesses, and the annual profit can reach as high as 600 million.

Of course, the actual amount will fluctuate, but it will be roughly the same.

This means that this deal is profitable.

This applies to pork, but what about other meats?
Just thinking about it makes him excited!

Xinliansheng is really going to make a fortune.

Lin Feng snorted:
“If Hung Hing’s ambitions weren’t so grand and didn’t align with our core business, I would never have let this opportunity slip by.”

"Don't underestimate these seemingly insignificant streams..."

Luo Zhiming thought to himself, "What's so inconspicuous about it?"

The pork business alone involves hundreds of millions of yuan in imports and exports each year.

Dude, are you misunderstanding something about me being unattractive?
However, considering that the person opposite him is Lin Feng, a super elite who can make investors' returns multiply several times in just a few days, it seems quite ordinary to say that he is insignificant.

Yes, this is just Lin Feng's ordinary life.

"You'll understand when you reach my level of wealth."

"Quick money really can't compare to this kind of long-term, steady business."

"For a company to thrive in the long run, it needs not windfall gains, but stable and long-term profits."

Luo Zhiming nodded repeatedly.

Whether he understands or not, just agree with him.

Lin Feng took out his cigar box, and Li Fu quickly took it, trimmed it for everyone present, and then distributed it to them one by one.

Lin Feng exhaled a puff of smoke contentedly before saying:
"Everyone who's out there trying to make money is after all."

"What my boss said is a golden rule: when you're out in the game, making money is the first priority; everything is business."

"You can ensure that your men are well-fed and clothed, and still have the means to take money back home to support their families and parents."

"Then what you say will be effective!"

"He talks about loyalty and righteousness all day long, but he only makes empty promises and leaves his subordinates to starve... That's not something a human being should do."

"As long as you can make your underlings money, they will follow you wholeheartedly."

"You support 50,000 underlings, and even 50,000 families. If you're in charge, who dares to object?"

"You don't need to worry, I will cooperate with you to gradually reduce the living space of other gangs in the underworld."

"They'll only have two choices—either join your Xinliansheng organization or change careers."

Luo Zhiming was deeply moved.

The big circle leopard nodded repeatedly as it listened.

Zhao Jialiang was astonished.

Li Fu was secretly pleased to hear this—it still has to be my Brother Feng!

Everyone present was capable, and they easily analyzed that this was feasible.

The big-circled leopard thought for a moment and then asked a question:

"Mr. Lin, there are also some gangs that make a living through shady dealings."

"Some of them are really despicable."

"For example, trafficking in drugs or smuggling weapons."

Lin Feng snorted coldly:
"That's not a club in the ordinary sense, that's the underworld."

“Traditional gangs are nothing more than parking lots, brothels, mahjong parlors, loan sharks, and so on.”

"Those guys are easy to deal with; I'll have the police focus their efforts on them!"

Everyone nodded in agreement, not at all thinking that Lin Feng was exaggerating.

If Hung Hing were still the same Hung Hing that operated in the underworld, Lin Feng's words would probably only be heard by a few police chiefs who knew his influence.

However, Hung Hing has already successfully transformed.

Lin Feng is the richest man in Hong Kong. When he sends a message to the police station, even the top officer has to take it seriously.

This is no exaggeration.

Luo Zhiming was filled with excitement; he seemed to see a bright future for Xinliansheng.

Lin Feng suddenly poured cold water on him again:

"The future is bright, but this kind of thing is not so easy to do."

Luo Zhiming was taken aback:
"Mr. Lin, what do you mean?"

Lin Feng said bluntly:
"There are too many gangs. Xinliansheng's territory is not enough to cover that many areas."

Luo Zhiming frowned and said:

"That's right."

Lin Feng smiled and said:
"Take it slow, we'll have to fight eventually anyway."

Luo Zhiming gritted his teeth and said:

"I'll form a general action team as soon as I get back."

"For the sake of our brothers' future, we still have to fight."

Lin Feng nodded slightly:

“I will call Brother Kun on Hung Hing’s side. Your New Union Group’s business can gradually penetrate into Hung Hing.”

Luo Zhiming exclaimed in surprise:

"Will this work?"

Lin Feng explained:
"Hung Hing has truly transformed, and we will gradually withdraw from the underworld."

"However, businesses in Hung Hing's territory, don't even think about collecting protection money."

Luo Zhiming didn't mind at all:

"If we have legitimate business to do, why would we collect protection money?"

Lin Feng nodded in satisfaction:

"The businesses in Hung Hing's territory have all signed security contracts with Thunder."

"I have to say the unpleasant things here first."

"If you collect protection money from Hung Hing's merchants and attract Thunder Security, don't come crying to me if you get beaten up."

Luo Zhiming waved his hands repeatedly:
"No, no!"

Lin Feng looked at the large circle leopard:
"Brother Leopard, is there anything else you need?"

The big circle leopard shook its head:

"I've said everything that needs to be said."

"What I need is stability in Hong Kong."

Luo Zhiming solemnly said:

"Don't worry, Brother Leopard. I'm a native of Hong Kong, and I want Hong Kong to be stable even more than you do."

Big Circle Leopard patted him solemnly on the shoulder.

"Okay, let's keep in touch."

At that moment, Luo Zhiming and Daquanbao exchanged phone numbers.

Lin Feng said to Li Fu:
"Help me take Brother Leopard and the others."

After Li Fu returned, he raised his own questions:

"Brother Feng, I have a feeling that you deliberately pushed this matter out of the public eye."

Lin Feng nodded with a smile:

"Yes, that's it."

Li Fu asked, puzzled:
"Actually, with our capabilities, we could have accomplished this without going through Xinliansheng."

"With your influence, who in the entire martial arts world wouldn't give you face?"

Lin Feng smiled and shook his head:
"Things shouldn't be viewed that way."

“Hong Kong is not like other places; it’s the capital of spies. Brother Leopard’s whereabouts can’t be hidden from others.”

"Brother Leopard's choice of Xinliansheng will soon spread throughout the martial arts world."

“Our Hung Hing’s goals are too big. It’s not good to take on such a task at this time.”

Li Fu was extremely puzzled:

"Isn't that just a simple matter?"

Lin Feng smiled and said:

"If my goal is just Hong Kong and my hometown, then there is really no problem."

"But the problem is, my goals are very big."

"This whole lap is my target."

Li Fu was taken aback.

Lin Feng said calmly:
“There are a lot of guys around who are very eccentric, and I don’t like them.”

"Thunder Security should be deployed."

Li Fu didn't react for a moment:

"Huh, where's the commotion?"

"How come I didn't know anyone hired us?"

Lin Feng laughed heartily:

"Whether the surrounding area is chaotic or not is up to me!"

hiss!
Li Fu suddenly remembered what Lin Feng had said: Thunder Security's target was not just Hong Kong, but also the surrounding small countries.

These small countries are very reckless, constantly provoking the bottom line of their homeland.

Is it...

Lin Feng smiled and said:
"Xiao Fu, your task is very important."

"Tell Jianjun that this is not an easy time."

"The Thunder's training cannot be relaxed."

It turns out that Brother Feng had already seen so far ahead!
Li Fu felt his blood boil. Just as he was about to speak, Lin Feng's phone rang.

"Brother Feng, it's a call from Boss Huang."

Lin Feng was slightly taken aback:
"General Manager Huang on the phone? What does he want to call at this time?"

As soon as the call connected, Huang Bingyao said loudly:

"Mr. Lin, Mr. Lin, thank you for your guidance."

"I just received the notification today that I will be taking office as the deputy director in charge of operations tomorrow."

"Without you, I would never have been able to hold this position in my life."

"Mr. Lin, I am deeply grateful and cannot express my thanks."

“I, Huang Bingyao, will do whatever you ask.”

Lin Feng smiled and said:

"General Manager Huang, no, Director Huang has been promoted."

"You absolutely have to treat me to dinner later."

Huang Bingyao grinned widely:

"That's for sure."
