My Lord, you need to stand up!

Chapter 877 Unexpected Charm

Everyone will be very surprised.

Countless eyes were watching Wei Dong.

Watch him buy luxury homes, start a basketball team, fund movies, and then unexpectedly take over a television station.

They even dare to confront gangs and factions head-on now.

How ruthless you are.

What exactly do you want to do?

Neither side really knows what Wei Dong's strategy is right now.

He was actually cursing as well: "Damn it, I mean we should go big, we have to make them feel the pain. We can't just let things slide like this. I'm not saying we should break the arms and legs of all thirty-seven people!"

Gangsters certainly don't deserve sympathy; if you're going to be in the underworld, you have to be aware of that.

If Xin'an tries to force a contract without asking any questions, they should be prepared to be proven wrong.

But the current situation still has a very clear demonstrative connotation!
The final medical examination revealed that all thirty-seven people had lost an arm or a leg... That's all!
Some ribs were broken, and several people had their limbs broken; it's likely that the wrong person was injured at the scene.

In short, it clearly expresses that Lao Tzu has a lot of control and can do whatever he wants. At least for now, he is still doing this with a sense of proportion.

People who frequently engage in fighting should understand that the power one can control is far superior to that of those who fly wildly and recklessly.

Control not only signifies a higher level of strength, but also implies a formidable mind.

This must have made Xin'an wary, preventing them from immediately launching a retaliation.

This also makes other parties wary.

Not only did Lao Fang call to ask what Wei Dong was doing, but Zheng Zhiwei, who had previously mentioned connecting with the police basketball team, also responded by saying he would wait and see.

It's not that the police's stance is that important to Rang Weidong; now even the police seem to regard him as a triad leader.

Wei Dong wasn't brought to Hong Kong to become a gang leader; he never intended to get involved in the underworld.

He's trying to climb the social ladder and become a socialite!

Cheng Lang said slowly and deliberately: "Since the boss has chosen to make a name for himself in Hong Kong, he must give up any illusions. Making movies is inseparable from gangs. This is a characteristic of the industry. Doing real estate is absolutely necessary to deal with gangs. These are huge engineering projects and filming plans. A few small-time thugs can cause huge losses. So in Hong Kong, where the gang atmosphere is strong, this relationship cannot be avoided. If the boss wants to clean up the atmosphere in Hong Kong and work hard to improve the youth, he must face the gangs directly. There is not even a one in ten thousand chance of getting away with it!"

Wei Dong fell silent, his joking expression turning serious as he stared intently at the television in front of him.

It just so happens that Chow Yun-fat took his basketball team to Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand recently, so he reminded them to be careful.

Taking advantage of the TV station's reform and revamp, his group all lived on Mount Wutai, surrounded by TV and radio stations. Any organization that wanted to retaliate or cause trouble would have to consider the consequences of attacking the communications authorities.

In the 1960s and 70s, this was already standard procedure in Asia, Africa and Latin America. Anyone who dared to do this would be dealt with by a powerful military organization.

These are all subconscious defenses.

They knew perfectly well that once Stephen Chow became famous, he would likely be inundated with offers for various roles, yet they failed to take adequate precautions.

Is it a fantasy that the greedy thoughts of the underworld will turn into good?

It was just good luck that they accidentally hit the secondary vehicle, which alerted them and led to a surprise attack by raising the level of security.

This made Wei Dong break out in a cold sweat.

Cheng Lang spoke softly again: "Throughout history, the first requirement for those who have achieved great things is to be free from illusions, to clearly understand that people will always die, hearts will always change, and situations cannot always be favorable. Even if we can see through the fog and understand the direction, we should not have illusions, because the future is no longer what we know, from..."

Wei Dong interrupted him: "You don't need to shorten your lifespan. I know these principles... but I didn't expect the importance of not having illusions to be so high. Well, I did have some illusions that our opponents would disintegrate on their own. Do as you say."

Even when he was working as a security guard with a missing hand, he was able to avoid hallucinations and never, like a colleague of his, frantically bought lottery tickets every day and every period, only to end up with nothing.

But that was because they were poor and had no other choice.

Now that resources are plentiful enough to freely explore new maps, can this game still be free of illusions?

The newly revamped Asia TV no longer features the serious, behind-the-back broadcasters; instead, it's all "short video" footage.

When it comes to computer technology, one thinks of Citibank's current dazzling array of computer stores, its open office area filled with computers, and its densely packed computer OEM manufacturing plants.
When it comes to shipping, it's all about the brand-new deep-water port quay crane terminal and huge container ships;
When discussing the Middle East oil crisis, one inevitably thinks of the related fluctuations in oil prices, crude oil futures, and changes in various Dow Jones indices.

It's all visuals.

Dynamic video is definitely more engaging than a dry, sitting-down news broadcast.

This is basic common sense that netizens in later generations are familiar with.

So laypeople can't see the difference; they'll just think, "Wow, ATV's revamped midday news is really different now." Each news item is limited to twenty or thirty seconds, with absolutely no unnecessary details, and it's all the latest information on finance, technology, and trade.

Moreover, they all adhere to the same rhetoric: how things are internationally, how things are in Hong Kong, and what impact this might have on Hong Kong itself.

This kind of description, moving from far to near, easily attracts people to listen and watch.

It is said that the most prominent feature is that the scene of people suddenly crowding together in electronics stores, tea restaurants, and grocery stores to watch TV suddenly appears on the street.

Because each one was filled with the kind of content found in later short videos:
"A once-in-a-century transformation in the foreign trade industry is imminent, this station's news..."

"Beware of the recent international commercial scams, this station conducts an exclusive interview..."

"Citibank announces a new round of tariff policies, which are closely related to our lives. This station's correspondent in Citibank..."

"The Federal Reserve's imminent interest rate hike will have a comprehensive impact on Hong Kong, this station..."

I'll just ask you whether you'll listen or not.

Stephen Chow later said that they were filming on the street, and they just turned on the TV as a background to let the extras sit on the roadside to maintain a sense of life. But they all turned to watch the TV!
That’s all.

For half an hour, I was bombarded with a barrage of information, with a preview every ten minutes—basically, a background music track and the ATV logo scrolling: "Onia sunscreen reminds you, we focus on UV protection and isolation, you are about to watch..."

Two advertisements appeared in the 30-minute news segment, so I wondered if it would help the O'Nia brand.

What can be announced is that the next fifteen minutes will be called "Relaxed Fitness," followed by a segment on luxury homes on Hong Kong Island at 12:45, and then a financial commentary at 1:00...

It hasn't attracted attention yet.

After a long day of intense work, many office workers either eat at restaurants of all levels downstairs, watch TV, or squeeze into the company's break room to microwave their lunch or order takeout while chatting about gossip.

After watching half an hour of news, my mind was completely blank. I felt like I had been forced to watch something for half an hour, but it was like nothing had been left behind, as if it had just slid across my smooth cerebral cortex.

Then I saw the opening trailer, which, as usual, reminded me of sunscreen and the next three or four programs, before the Latin dance music started to build up the atmosphere...

Many viewers at lunchtime probably looked away, preparing to get up, turn around, and disperse.

The ATV champion from last year, Lina, wore two braids, a cowboy hat with rolled brim, a black tight vest tucked into tight jeans, and black riding boots, making her two arms and a large expanse of chest extremely eye-catching.

They didn't even show the wattage of the headlights, yet it already made me involuntarily sigh. There were still a few grains of rice in my bowl, so I savored them carefully. I hadn't finished my tea yet, so I decided to stand still and rest for a bit...

With arms swaying gently from side to side to the music, legs also bend rhythmically to the beat, the whole body as smooth and supple as a beautiful snake!

Even her exposed armpits look so beautiful!
And after two or three swaying motions, she began to turn around. Perhaps thousands of people were shouting in their hearts, "She turned around! She turned around! She turned around!"
That's why you'll notice a brightly colored silk scarf hanging from the thick leather belt around her waist. As she sways and dances, it gently brushes against the high-cut back pocket of her jeans, exuding a seductive charm.

Corina turned around and performed a ballroom dance gesture of raising a flower in one hand, bowing slightly in farewell. Oh my, the huge cleavage in that moment of bowing made many people involuntarily tiptoe!
The dance, which lasted for thirty seconds, suddenly came to an abrupt end!

The immense psychological impact of feeling lost and dejected left all viewers in Hong Kong who saw the footage feeling deeply affected.

If you were to ask them what object Lina was standing on and what the background was like, absolutely everyone would be clueless!
Instead of stepping on anything, step on my heart instead.

As for my background, that's all within my own mind!
But this sense of melancholy lasted only a moment, because it was still the same dance music, and it was still Lina, but this time she had changed into a red Latin dance dress, which revealed even more skin.

She even draws attention to herself standing on a beach with a clear blue sky and the "ATV. Easy Fitness" rug under her feet.

This time, instead of a silk scarf around her waist, she wore a red ribbon on her left wrist that matched the color of her long, asymmetrical skirt.

She wore a single braid across her chest, and a pair of huge earrings with a Western Region style.

The same dance moves seem to be performed on the vast Gobi Desert.

Anyway, this time, some people have already started swaying along against their will.

Even if it disappears in another thirty seconds, I'm certain it will reappear, right?

Let's go with Lina, shall we?
What will she be wearing when she reappears?

That's right, this time someone finally noticed that she was standing on the hood of a Dodge minivan, wearing a black turtleneck sleeveless top and tight leggings, the kind that later became known as yoga pants.

The same dance moves, the same music, and the same fleeting glimpse of the deep valley—it's beautiful!
By repeatedly using different costumes to wash away the lewdness, one can move beyond the feeling of being lewd and enter into a state of calm appreciation of beauty.

At this point, the old snakeskin men were no longer reserved or sleazy; instead, they could even discuss things with passersby.

Everyone is curious and looking forward to seeing what the next transformation will look like; this sense of the unknown is what makes it so captivating.

ATV News Channel has undergone a complete revamp, and thanks to Lina's unexpected 15-minute performance with 30 different outfits, the news has spread throughout Hong Kong!
