The world begins with Hong Kong movies

Chapter 265: Gaining Knowledge

Causeway Bay at night is a vibrant and bustling place with bright lights and lively atmosphere.

It's that time of year again when everyone is indulging in extravagance and luxury. It seems like everyone's pace has slowed down, and the hustle and bustle of the daytime is gone.

The nightclubs in Hung Hing's territory are all thriving.

Luxury cars would frequently stop in front of the nightclub, and well-dressed customers would continuously pour in.

The parking attendants standing guard at the entrance were all extremely busy, their faces full of ingratiating smiles.

The mid-range bar owned by Chan Ho-nam and his brothers was also bustling with activity.

The loud music was deafening, and men and women on the dance floor displayed their alluring dance moves.

In the lobby on the first floor, only Chow Pi was sitting at the bar, while many Hung Hing underlings acted as waiters, moving between the booths. Neither Chan Ho Nam nor Chicken, who loved chasing girls, were there.

If any of their peers knew about their actions, they would definitely be shocked and would then say: "Are they out of their minds?"
Ahem, at this time, Chan Ho-nam, Chicken, and Tai Tin Yee were all training at Boss B's boxing gym.

Chen Haonan and Da Tian Er were panting heavily, drenched in sweat, and extremely exhausted.

As for the pheasant, it looked reluctant and lazy, clearly indicating that it hadn't put in the effort to train.

"I'm telling you, pheasant, if you don't train regularly, you'll suffer a great loss when it really matters!"

Chen Haonan was somewhat dissatisfied and said irritably, "Besides, if you can't keep up with the stamina, even running away will be a problem!"

"that is!"

Da Tian Er chimed in, "Back in Macau, you almost got us killed!"

"Isn't everything alright?"

Pheasant said dismissively, "It's late at night, and instead of chasing girls, you two are here boxing and exercising. I wonder if there's something wrong with your brains?"

"What a load of rubbish!"

Chen Haonan said dejectedly, "With your attitude, we won't take you on any more dangerous missions in the future. We really don't want to experience that kind of risk again!"

"Does it have to be this ruthless?"

Chicken exclaimed dramatically, "We're brothers, so we have to be loyal to each other!"

"I also contributed to the affairs on the island of Macau, and the community has recognized my efforts!"

"I just don't know when the club will reward us for our contributions!"

As he spoke, he veered off-topic, inadvertently leading Chan Ho-nam and Tai Tin-Yi astray as well.

In fact, the pheasant in the movie is more like the protagonist's feet.

This guy always seems to have a bit of inexplicable luck.

At the beginning of the movie, Chicken, who was responsible for providing the knives, was late and ended up stabbing Babi to death on the street instead of experiencing the thrilling fight in the bathhouse.

If we were to truly assess merit and reward contributions, Chan Ho-nam's achievements would not even come close to Chicken's.

On the island of Macau, he also escaped being surrounded and killed by hundreds of knife-wielding men because he was chasing after girls.

Upon arriving in Taiwan, he encountered Lei Gong, the leader of the Sanlian Gang, who announced a bounty. Chicken, thanks to his decisive killing, was promoted directly to the position of leader of the Viper Hall, which can be considered a meteoric rise.

He was later framed by Ding Yao, but he was able to escape unscathed and continue to be the head of his Poisonous Snake Hall.

Later, when the Yamaguchi-gumi wanted to form a marriage alliance with the Sanlian Gang, Chicken became the specific partner in the marriage.

You could say this guy's luck is extraordinary.

Compared to him, Chan Ho-nam's life is a disaster!
In fact, there was an element of luck involved in his previous trip to Macau with Chan Ho-nam.

He basically played a minor role the whole time, partying almost every night. When it really came down to it, with Chan Ho-nam and Tai Tin-Yi helping him out, he only needed to run away in time.

As a result, after returning to Hong Kong, the triads even gave him credit, almost enough to secure him a permanent position.

Chan Ho-nam and Tai Tin Yee weren't stupid; they quickly realized what was going on.

Although I was annoyed, I wasn't that upset with the pheasant.

I just feel that this isn't right for the pheasant. If it encounters the same thing again, it might not be as lucky as it was this time.

So he forced Shanji to come to the boxing gym to train every night whenever he had free time.

The pheasant didn't think it was in the wrong at all!

If there's a chance to get something for free, why not take advantage of it?
Besides, why would a club member like him need to exercise on time every day?
Instead of wasting time on this, it would be more fun to pick up a few more girls!
As for the future, once he has established himself in his position, he won't need to continue doing such dangerous work.

In previous operations, it was not seen that any major triads actively participated.

That's what I thought in my heart, but in reality, I was lazy and had no enthusiasm at all.

Luckily, he didn't say it out loud, otherwise Chan Ho-nam and Tai Tin Yee would probably be furious!

This is different from their conventional thinking, and it could potentially lead to a complete falling out.

Just then, Boss B, accompanied by a few henchmen, strolled over leisurely.

"Hao Nan, Da Tian Er, and Shan Ji!"

From a distance, Boss B started shouting, his face full of happy smiles.

It was quite obvious that when he called out to the pheasant, there was a noticeable pause and hesitation in his tone.

"Brother B, what brings you to the boxing gym at night?"

Chan Ho-nam, along with Tai Tin-Yi and Chicken, went up to greet them and asked curiously.

At this time, Boss B usually sits in the nightclub where Tuodi is located.

He either deals with urgent matters or indulges in lavish parties with beautiful women.

"Just letting you all know!" Boss B said cheerfully, "Tomorrow, I'll take you to see something big!"

He paused for a moment before continuing, "Everyone, dress smartly, or you'll embarrass yourselves!"

"Brother B, what's the matter? Why are you so serious?"

Chan Ho-nam asked in confusion, "Nothing major has happened in the underworld lately!"

"Hehe, you'll find out then!"

Big Brother B kept everyone in suspense, then turned and left without lingering, coming and going in a hurry.

Chan Ho-nam, Tai Tin Yee, and Chicken looked at each other, wondering what had happened.

"Whatever it is, we'll just go with them tomorrow!"

Da Tian Er said nonchalantly, "Our training plan for tonight isn't finished yet, shall we continue?"

"Keep going, we definitely have to keep going!"

Chen Haonan laughed and said, "I'm getting more and more energetic with each workout lately. I'm sure I can achieve a higher ranking in the 'Unrestricted Fighting Tournament' next year!"

"Damn, do you two have to go this far?"

Chicken was startled and said irritably, "Once the club rewards come out, we'll all be at the bottom of the club. Is there any need to work so hard?"

This guy, after all, wasn't a deep thinker; in his haste, he blurted out his thoughts.

Chan Ho-nam was taken aback for a moment, but instead of getting angry and losing his temper, he said slowly, "If this were any other branch of the gang, we really wouldn't need to fight this hard!"

"But Causeway Bay is different. The surrounding triads are eyeing us covetously, and the competition is just too intense!"

"Even if you manage to take charge of the core of the gang, there will probably still be all sorts of infighting!"

In fact, there was something else he couldn't say: Boss B might not allocate many entertainment venues and nightclubs to them, so in the end they would have to work hard themselves.
However, he simply couldn't bring himself to say such things, as they contradicted his beliefs.

"Exactly, have you already forgotten the pressure that Uncle Dongxing brought before, Chicken?"

Da Tian Er chimed in, "Luckily, that old guy has quieted down recently, otherwise we brothers wouldn't even have time to practice our boxing in peace at night!"

Chicken was speechless; the shadow cast by Uncle Tung Sing was quite significant.

Because he liked chasing girls, he frequented most of the nightclubs in Causeway Bay.

In addition, Big Mouth loves to brag, exaggerating the status of his little circle of brothers to the skies.

This wouldn't normally be a problem; people in gangs rarely keep their mouths shut.

Normally, colleagues from other clubs would just take it as a joke and let it go.

But Uncle Dongxing was different; he actually listened to what was said.

Another point is that Boss B is also heavily promoting Chan Ho-nam and his brothers!

So, Uncle Dongxing took a liking to the brothers and naturally treated them well.

Then, Chicken soon experienced firsthand what the risks of joining a gang were.

If he's not on Hung Hing's own territory, no matter if he's having fun or not, there's a chance that a vicious Tung Sing thug will appear, wielding a watermelon knife, ready to smash his head open.

If he hadn't been quick-witted enough, he would have been caught several times and the outcome certainly wouldn't have been good.

And so it was; for a period of time, he didn't have much interest in picking up girls.

Fortunately, he has a strong heart; otherwise, if he had gone through this a few more times, his little brother might have been ruined.

I really don't want to experience that kind of exhausting, nerve-wracking life again.

The next day, Chicken was carried out of the hotel room by Chan Ho-nam and Tai Tin-Yi.

As for the temporary female companion in bed, none of the brothers paid any attention to her.

"Damn it, Chicken, have you lost your mind?"

Chan Ho-nam said unhappily, "Brother B is going to take us to see the world, and you still haven't gotten up!"

"Didn't you say we wouldn't leave until noon?"

The pheasant grumbled, dissatisfied: "It's only around 10 a.m.!"

"You bastard, you'll die on a woman's belly one day!"

Chan Ho-nam snapped, "Brother B has already called and wants us to leave with him ahead of schedule!"

"Oh, I'll get ready right away, I'll get ready right away!"

Chicken was also startled and hurriedly rushed into the bathroom of the hotel suite. He quickly took care of his personal hygiene and then got into the van with Chan Ho-nam and Tai Tin Yee.

When they arrived at Tuodi, Boss B's modified van had been waiting for a long time.

To be honest, Boss B is doing quite poorly!
Despite occupying three of the most bustling streets in Causeway Bay, he still had very little money.

In the movie, this person even gave a good rant about the tuition fees and various extracurricular expenses for their child.

He genuinely didn't have the money to buy a luxury car, so he simply followed the trend and used a modified minivan for transportation.

"Why so late?"

He glanced at the three Chen brothers with some displeasure and said directly, "When we get there, behave yourselves, listen more and talk less, and don't cause me any trouble!"

After saying that, he waved his hand, signaling the van to start.

Not long after, Boss B led Chan Ho-nam and the others to a three-star hotel near the Hung Hing headquarters. The parking lot there was already full of all sorts of cars and vans.
