Chapter 276 Doing Good Deeds Requires Leaving Your Name (Seeking Monthly Tickets at the Beginning of the Month)

A jackpot ticket has been won at a lottery outlet on Fa Yuen Street in Mong Kok!

The news spread like wildfire, reaching other lottery outlets in a short time.

Then, the organizers made a timely announcement: "Dear guests and customers, a grand prize has just been won at the Garden Street lottery outlet, and the winner has already claimed an Audi car!"

Boom!

Almost every lottery outlet was instantly thrown into chaos.

The already enthusiastic lottery players were now even more alert and full of anticipation.

This is only the first day of the lottery draw, and someone has already won the grand prize!
If others have such good luck, why can't I?
The lottery players' eyes instinctively turned to the prize redemption area not far away, where various prizes were piled up like mountains.

Especially the Audi sedans in the most conspicuous positions, and the rows of beautifully designed motorcycles, their eyes and hearts were filled with longing.

In a state of heightened excitement, one naturally becomes even more eager to buy lottery tickets.

Wu Feng, who was inspecting the area, saw everything and was quite satisfied.

This, naturally, was also his arrangement!

Fifty Audi luxury cars were offered, with five being released each day to continuously stimulate lottery players' purchasing desires.

It's similar to buying lottery tickets in later generations; only big prizes are truly exciting.

Of course, five of the fifty Audi luxury cars, which were the grand prize, have already been given away through the lottery, which is a necessary public relations tactic.

Police stations in Yau Tsim Mong, where lottery sales points have been set up, have each received a box of 200 winning lottery tickets worth two million dollars.

There was also a box of lottery tickets with prizes on both sides of the district government and the district councilors.

How they distribute the money is none of Wu Feng's business.

The higher-ups in the West don't use these methods.

In short, the budget for this aspect alone is as high as 30 million!

There's no way around it; this lottery draw event was just too big in terms of scale and scale.

Throughout the Yau Tsim Mong district, there are as many as fifteen lottery sales points!
Although the event lasted for less than half a day, Wu Feng, who was wandering around and inspecting the area, could roughly estimate that the revenue generated in half a day was an astonishing figure.

Putting everything else aside, the wholesale price of the prizes he prepared alone reached HK$500 million!
If all the lottery tickets prepared can be sold, the total price will be an astonishing 2.5 billion!
Wu Feng is very optimistic about the purchasing power of Hong Kong Island residents, and the prizes can be further increased.

This doesn't even include residents who specifically want to buy discounted New Year's goods!
When making the plan, he naturally lowered the amount of the prizes to avoid unnecessary trouble. Otherwise, how could the lottery event have started so smoothly?

By the time those with ulterior motives and certain business tycoons realize what's happening, this large-scale event orchestrated by Wu Feng will probably be coming to an end.

At this point, some individuals and forces wanted to get involved and get a share of the profits, but they could only lament their helplessness.

It is highly likely that the Hong Kong British government will immediately legislate to prevent other forces from imitating it.

To reiterate, the money in the pockets of Hong Kong Island residents belongs to the Hong Kong British government, and it will absolutely not allow other forces to easily get their hands on it.

Wu Feng took a certain risk by making such a big splash.

Fortunately, the alliance formed by sharing common interests is not to be underestimated. At least this time he was able to easily escape unscathed, which is enough.

The prizes, valued at 500 million, were sold at the lowest wholesale price, yet involved a considerable number of suppliers, all of whom were very powerful.

The Yau Tsim Mong District Government and its councilors, who were brought in and benefited greatly, along with numerous police officers and some foreigners at higher levels, are all allies with vested interests.

Ahem, and there are also college student volunteers, who are a group that cannot be ignored!

In short, according to phone calls, the lottery sales points managed by Jiang Tiansheng and Han Bin were also bustling with crowds, clearly no less lively than the area managed by Wu Feng.

During this period, the entire Hung Hing organization started operating again!
Just to maintain order at lottery outlets, powerful figures from various organizations personally stepped in, some even sitting on-site to oversee operations.

As for the many leaders of the various branches, they all sit in their branches and remotely direct their underlings to maintain order within their territories.

So far, no obvious mistakes or omissions have appeared, which means that it has been done quite well.

……

On the other side, the Hung Hing underlings who were previously responsible for delivering colorful flyers to the public housing estate, such as Chan Ho-nam and Chicken, also arrived at the familiar public housing estate early by minibus.

A group of middle-aged women and aunties had been waiting here for quite some time.

As soon as the three minibuses came to a stop, Chen Haonan and his gang of friends appeared, only to be immediately packed with a group of familiar middle-aged women.

"Nanzi, thanks to you so much for buying New Year's goods this time!"

Grandma Jin sat next to Chan Ho-nam, her wrinkled old face beaming with joy.

"It's alright, it's alright. Our company happens to have this kind of business. Rather than letting others benefit, we might as well let our neighbors benefit!"

Chan Ho-nam said modestly, "Everyone, please be seated. The convoy will be setting off soon!"

Even after getting on the bus, the group of middle-aged women kept chattering away. They only quieted down a bit when they heard Chen Haonan's greeting, but their faces were still full of anticipation.

Soon, three minibuses took them to the largest vegetable market in the vicinity.

"Scarface Rong, I've brought a guest, don't try anything funny!" Chen Haonan strode up to a huge pork stall and shouted at the tall, burly stall owner, "This matter is being handled personally by several big shots from the triad, and the consequences will be quite serious!"

"Relax, relax, I, Scarface Rong, am still a man of my word!"

The pork stall owner was very generous in his offer, and his gaze towards the group of middle-aged women was entirely focused on the color of Hong Kong dollars.

"Boss, Nanzi already said that your pork is 30% off, right?"

"Yes, all customers brought by Brother Nan will receive a 30% discount!"

"Alright, give me ten pounds of pork leg meat and three pounds of pig's trotters!"

"I want five pounds of pork tenderloin and five pounds of spare ribs, the best kind!"

"..."

The pork stall was bustling with business, and the thousand kilograms of pork that the stall owner had prepared in advance were sold out in a short time.

Such a lively scene also attracted many regular customers to follow suit and make purchases.

However, they weren't so lucky as to enjoy the 30% discount.

"Why do those older women get a 30% discount, but we don't?"

Immediately, a customer became unhappy and started yelling, "If you don't give me a reasonable explanation, I'm not doing business today. I'll ruin everything for you!"

"Yes, yes, give us a reasonable explanation, or we won't leave. Let's see how you do business normally then. What kind of discriminatory treatment is this?"

"Exactly, why can't we enjoy a 30% discount?"

"..."

boom!
The pork stall owner was clearly not a good-tempered person. He slammed the knife down on the cutting board, startling the group of customers who had been shouting loudly, and they immediately quieted down.

"What are you doing?"

The stall owner, showing off the well-developed muscles on his thick arms, said irritably, "Those aunties and grandmas get discounts, but that's all agreed upon beforehand!"

"This is a promotional event by Hung Hing, offering discounts to these middle-aged and elderly women when they buy New Year's goods!"

"See that handsome young man leading the way in maintaining order? He's the newly promoted Red Pole of Hung Hing Causeway Bay!"

"If we hadn't discussed it beforehand, would I have given up such a large profit?"

"With a 30% discount, thousands of kilograms of pork translates to several thousand yuan in profit!"

"You weren't brought here by the Hung Hing brothers, so why do you think you can take advantage of me?"

These words left the customers looking at each other in bewilderment, filled with confusion and unable to understand what was going on.

Is Hung Hing trying to do good deeds? Have they changed their ways?

Chan Ho-nam and Chicken, however, ignored the commotion and chaos.

At this moment, they, along with their neighbors, went to a nearby sashimi restaurant.

Here, it was naturally agreed beforehand that the fresh fish purchased by the aunties and grandmas would also be 30% off!
Then there are candy stores, pastry shops, and fruit markets, among other places.

All items were offered at a 30% discount, prompting the older women who came along to go on a shopping spree.

Many of the Hung Hing underlings like Chan Ho-nam were doing similar things at that time.

They brought along familiar neighbors to purchase large quantities of New Year's goods at the market and various shops, all at a 30% discount, a considerable amount of savings.

Such 'charity' events are not only filmed and documented by reporters throughout, but also reported on.

Since you've done a good deed, you should publicize it properly.

There's no need to hide it; it's not something shameful.

Of course, relying solely on Hung Hing is far from enough to successfully organize such an event.

The wet markets on Hong Kong Island are almost entirely under the control of various triads, serving as one of their sources of income and allowing them to arrange legitimate businesses for many of their underlings.

It just so happens that previously, several top-tier triads, including Tung Sing, Lien Shing, the Number Gang, the Water House, and United, owed Hung Hing a huge favor.

Hung Hing asked them to cooperate a little, and these triads naturally wouldn't refuse.

Things went quite smoothly, and no unexpected changes occurred.

It's obviously unlikely!
If you don't do the things the triad bosses tell you to do, you'll be bringing shame to Hung Hing. How can the triad bosses just stand by and do nothing?
It's not a major issue of vital importance, so it would be unreasonable to refuse such a small favor, especially since they still need Hung Hing's help.

As for candies and pastries, it's quite reasonable to cooperate directly with the original manufacturers.

During this process, Wu Feng secretly brought in quite a few personal agendas.

Many well-known products from mainland China were also included in the acquisition process.

Whether they can be remembered depends on their own qualities.
