The world begins with Hong Kong movies

Chapter 251 Disgusting People Don't Pay the Price
When the ferry docked at the Macau Island pier, the passengers disembarked with grim expressions.

At this moment, the funeral music continued to play on the small ship.

Tiger, the "Red Stick" of Hung Hing Kwun Tong, and his gang of fierce-looking burly men showed no sign of disembarking.

This made the passengers who had disembarked secretly breathe a sigh of relief, despite their initial displeasure.

"Bro, still in the mood to go to the casino?"

Several passengers who knew each other subconsciously began to whisper among themselves.

They rushed over by ferry so early, weren't they just eager to get spinach?
"What kind of mood am I in!"

One passenger complained, "I've been listening to funeral music the whole way, and I feel so unlucky!"

"Going to a gambling den in this state? Do you think your Hong Kong dollars are too hot to handle?"

"Anyway, I'm not in the mood to play anymore. I'll take another ferry back after breakfast!"

"That's what I think too. Today is really unlucky, so it's better not to play!"

"We're all in the same boat, we might as well go back to Hong Kong Island together. If I'd known something like this would happen, I would have just spent the day having fun at the nearby mahjong parlor!"

"That's it, I'm not planning on coming to Macau anytime soon!"

"What do you mean? Do you mean the Hung Hing thugs will continue to do this?"

"They might actually do that. The TV program last night made it very clear. Hung Hing will definitely not back down easily; it would be too humiliating!"

"But the opponent is that guy from Macau. Where does Hung Hing get the courage to stand up to him?"

"How would I know? But you all saw what happened on the ferry just now. Does Hung Hing want to settle things quietly?"

"Yes, if they did this on every ferry coming from Hong Kong Island, the casino business would definitely be severely affected, just like we thought!"

"I just wonder how long they'll keep fighting?"

"We're just ordinary people; it's already a miracle that we haven't been affected!"

"..."

Passengers disembarking were discussing the matter, and in short, few were willing to go to the gambling den for a good time.

Hong Kong people are quite superstitious!
This theme is reflected in novels, comics, television shows, and movies.

Otherwise, why is the feng shui industry so prosperous in Hong Kong?
No matter what you do—opening a business, weddings, funerals, etc.—you have to choose an auspicious day and good fortune.

Participating in gambling, for example, relies heavily on luck.

Otherwise, why would the TV series "The Greed of Man" become a classic?

In fact, when mainland audiences watched the TV series "The Greed of Man", they felt that Ding Hai's luck was quite inexplicable, and their first impression was that it was a major flaw in the plot.

However, Hong Kong audiences found the storyline quite reasonable and even longed for and envied it.

The final showdown in the stock market is not about professional skills, nor is it about the clash of capital behind the scenes.

It's a gamble!
This situation is something that mainland audiences find hard to understand and accept.

But Hong Kong audiences consider it a classic!

It seems that every time "The Greed of Man" is re-broadcast, it causes the stock market to drop, which is completely inexplicable.

This also reveals the deep-rooted superstitious mentality among the people of Hong Kong Island!
Similarly, the act of Hung Hing's underlings playing funeral music on the ferry was a bucket of cold water for those who were eager to go to Macau to gamble.

They just felt it was bad luck, like they might have some bad fortune on them, so why would they continue to go to the casino and throw money away?

Such incidents occur on almost every ferry route from Hong Kong Island to Macau Island.

The result was severe: the number of people blocking the road from Hong Kong Island plummeted!

The news quickly reached the leaders of various organizations in Australia, as well as the man with the ear, immediately causing strong dissatisfaction.

"You bastard! You actually resorted to such despicable and shameless tactics! You are utterly despicable and shameless!"

"Hmph, these Hung Hing thugs are courting death. Do they really think there are no heroes left in Macau?"

"Grab your weapons, let's go and have a good fight with the Hung Hing thugs!"

"Damn it, if Hung Hing keeps doing this, what are we going to eat and drink in the future? We absolutely can't continue like this!"

"Looks like we'll have to have a good fight. If we beat those thugs from Hung Hing into submission, they won't dare to continue acting like this. Be quick and decisive when we make our move!"

"..."

Led by their leaders, a large number of gang members from Macau arrived at the pier in a menacing manner.

But unexpectedly, even in the congested areas of the bustling street, shrill funeral music was playing!
The loudspeaker was extremely loud; it could be heard clearly from several miles away.

Damn it, they're trying to raid my base!
The authorities reacted swiftly, immediately dispatching some security guards and gang members to storm into the funeral parlor.

"What the hell are you guys doing?"

The gang leader kicked over a wreath and pointed at the frightened family members, yelling, "Why are you playing funeral music so loudly?"

"Do you know that doing this will affect the gambling den's business? Can you bear the consequences?" With that, he forcefully shut down the funeral music, then called over the deceased's family members who were wailing, gave them a good scolding and warning, and then left with his henchmen.

Unbeknownst to them, a hidden camera in the corner had recorded everything they did and said.

After everyone had gone far away, Chan Ho-nam and Chicken and the others came out of the next room.

Without saying a word, they handed over large sums of Hong Kong dollars to the family members who were mourning, and then, amidst their grateful gazes, they quickly left with the television cameramen.

"Brother Nan, aren't we giving too much?"

As Chicken strode away, he muttered grumbling, "It's just acting, and they charge 30,000 Hong Kong dollars for one time? It's practically robbery!"

"Take back your little schemes!"

Chan Ho-nam said irritably, "They really did have family members leaving; we were just hitchhiking!"

"Not giving the family members who are mourning enough compensation for such a matter would be a bad thing. Does Chicken (a nickname for a young man) need 30,000 Hong Kong dollars for expenses?"

"To be honest, Brother Nan, I'm really short of money!"

Chicken grinned and said, "I recently hooked up with a girl in Tsim Sha Tsui, and she's absolutely gorgeous!"

"Everything is fine, except that my daily expenses are a bit too high. All the money in my pocket is spent on that pretty girl. Even if I only have 30,000 yuan, it can still help out in an emergency, right?"

"Damn, Chicken, didn't you always say that you don't need money to pick up girls?"

Da Tian Er, standing nearby, sneered, "The girls you used to date would give you money, so why isn't it working this time?"

"It's different, it's different!"

Chicken chuckled smugly and said, "The girl I've picked up this time is from a high-end nightclub in Tsim Sha Tsui. She even recently participated in ATV's beauty pageant and made it to the top 64!"

"A girl like this is not only beautiful but also quite famous. It took me a lot of effort to get her, so I have to cherish her!"

"He's seen the world, so if I don't act rich enough, this girl might not stay obediently with me. There's nothing I can do about it!"

Depend on!
Now, not only Tai Tin Yee, but even Chan Ho Nam was quite envious.

They usually pick up young, rebellious girls and regular nightclub girls in Causeway Bay nightclubs with ease.

But as for the top hostesses of high-end nightclubs, or even popular contestants who participated in ATV beauty pageants, those are things they can only dream of.

As Chicken said, if you don't have enough money, it's best not to even touch it!
That's not something you can win over with sweet talk; even Chen Haonan couldn't do that.

"Stop rambling and talking nonsense!"

With a pang of sadness in his heart, Chen Haonan said sternly, "Let's hurry up and get to the second location where the funeral music is playing as soon as possible. Don't forget our mission here!"

"Don't worry, Brother Nan, the brothers know what they're doing and won't let us down!"

Da Tian Er said in a low voice, "This is a rare opportunity. As long as we brothers perform well, we might be able to successfully establish ourselves in Dadi through this!"

His words not only encouraged himself, but also energized Chan Ho-nam and Chicken, making them run even faster.

If they can successfully establish themselves in the gang, these brothers will be considered mid-level leaders in the organization.

If you're incredibly lucky, you might even become the local leader!

This matter was ordered by the Saigon Hall Master and was a major operation endorsed by the gang leader, Chiang Tin-sang.

The Saigon leader made it clear that as long as they performed well and accumulated enough merit, he would fulfill his promises and not disappoint his brothers.

Upon hearing the news, Chan Ho-nam and his brothers immediately became interested in something.

After discussing it for a while, they quickly found Boss B and expressed their determination to actively participate in this operation.

It’s funny to say!
At this time, Chan Ho-nam was quite famous in the underworld. At least in Causeway Bay, he was considered a very capable fighter, known as the number one fighter under Boss B.

But ironically, he still hasn't secured a stable position, which is practically a joke.

In reality, Chan Ho-nam's trust in Boss B was far less than that of Wu Feng, the Saigon gang leader whom he was not very familiar with.

At least the Saigon Hall Master is a man of his word; he always keeps his promises.

This is also why he and his brothers, including Chicken, were so proactive this time.

The brothers took the initiative to wage guerrilla warfare around the island of Macau, constantly looking for opportunities to play funeral music, their main goal being to disgust people without any remorse.

Such actions could directly impact the business of some gambling establishments on Macau Island, and are therefore quite dangerous.

But for Chan Ho-nam and his gang, their motto was to seek opportunities amidst danger!

If these brothers seize this opportunity, their future prospects in the gang will be completely different.

This confrontation with the man from Macau is not just about Chan Ho-nam and his brothers seizing the opportunity to rise to power; there are also many clever Hung Hing gangsters who want to accumulate enough merit to establish a strong base.

As for risks, anyone who's in the business world is always at risk!

For a lowly scoundrel, as long as there's a chance to climb up, that's enough!
