The world begins with Hong Kong movies

Chapter 309 is no joke!

Jiang Tiansheng not only called Camel to inform him, but also notified all the other bigwigs of the investment groups in Xiao Rizi stock market.

When it comes to their own financial security, no gang leader dares to be negligent and reacts immediately.

All the top triads on Hong Kong Island dispatched their most financially savvy secretaries, along with a group of elite members, to oversee the operation at Xiao Ri Zi.

Dongxing Smiling Tiger arrived earliest, showing no intention of cooperating with other gangs.

After all, when they were in Hong Kong, they were direct competitors with very poor relations.

Asking them to set aside past grievances before certain events have occurred is wishful thinking; even the leaders and powerful figures wouldn't be able to change anything.

Little did they know that their departure would bring a great deal of peace to the Hong Kong underworld, and that's no exaggeration.

These guys are all managers of the financial companies of various gangs.

Their temporary departure naturally affected the normal operations of major finance companies, namely the scale and efficiency of lending.

It's unclear how many Hong Kong Island residents will be less likely to be harassed by triad members or fall into traps.

Some things are just so damn stupid!

After finishing his work, Wu Feng went to his football club to temporarily participate in the team's training.

His idea was simple: to give the two European football teams that were about to arrive a big surprise.

The person most enthusiastic about the two European teams coming to Hong Kong is Chiang Tin-sang, the owner of the Dutch Eredivisie team.

He has also been frequently attending high-level meetings of the Hong Kong Island Football Association recently, so it's no exaggeration to say that he's the center of attention.

The Football Association's top brass takes visits from European teams very seriously, and even Fok Tai-heng is no exception.

They have a lot to consider, including not only the reception, but also how to arrange enough matches in a short period of time.

In addition, it's about which teams will participate in the friendly matches.

As for business matters, the Football Association's top management also attaches great importance to them, as this is a great opportunity to make money!

Putting everything else aside, as long as the promotion is done well, the ticket revenue alone will be a substantial income.

Unfortunately, Hong Kong Island does not have large stadiums or professional football fields.

Even the famous Hong Kong Coliseum has fewer than 20,000 seats.

In contrast, the mainland national team, which has already confirmed and will play two friendly matches against visiting European teams, will play at the Guangzhou Tianhe Stadium, which has a capacity of 50,000 seats.

Not only ticket sales, but also the revenue from surrounding businesses, if managed well, can amount to a substantial sum, so none of them can be taken lightly.

Jiang Tiansheng attended the Football Association's high-level meeting and stole the show, his spirits soaring.

After each meeting, he would immediately call Wu Feng to communicate and inform him of the various measures taken by the Football Association.

This guy, really...

Wu Feng was somewhat amused and exasperated, but he understood Jiang Tiansheng's mindset. This was Jiang's moment of glory, and he naturally wanted to show off.

"Mr. Jiang, never agree to any of the demands or ideas of the headquarters lightly, or you won't be able to regret it later!"

He could only offer this advice: "As the owner, you shouldn't interfere too much in the team's affairs, and you shouldn't give the team any opportunity to meddle in the specific operations!"

"What, Ah Feng, do you still think he'll interfere in the specific affairs of my team?"

Jiang Tiansheng was somewhat skeptical and chuckled, "You're overthinking it. Such a thing is highly unlikely!"

"Heh, better safe than sorry!"

Wu Feng didn't explain further, and chuckled, "When we arrange for some Hong Kong players and some mainland players to join those two teams, it will definitely cause a huge sensation!"

"That's natural!"

Jiang Tiansheng said smugly, "After all, the center of world football is in Europe, so we've benefited from that!"

"It's a pity you don't like attending the headquarters meetings, otherwise we could have shared the glory together!"

"Haha, Mr. Jiang, you alone are more than enough!"

Wu Feng chuckled and said, "I have other things to do, so I won't get involved. It's really not fun!"

This is what he truly believes!
The senior members of the Hong Kong Island Football Association are all from prominent families, and the president is none other than tycoon Fok, who is also a football fan.

However, their focus is on the status of the Football Association's senior management, and they don't seem to care much about the future prospects of football in Hong Kong.

Otherwise, given the financial resources of the top leadership, Jiang Tiansheng and Wu Feng wouldn't be enjoying their current success.

Huo Daheng was restricted by his other identities, but the other senior members of the association did not have such troubles.

Knowing what they were thinking, Wu Feng naturally wouldn't blindly go over there; who knew what strange things he might encounter?
Meanwhile, television stations and newspapers are increasing their coverage of the issue, and the intensity of their reporting is growing.

Residents of Hong Kong Island knew about this a long time ago!
Everyone who was interested was hoping that the two European teams would arrive soon so that they could have a good look at the team.

Under such circumstances, the football atmosphere on Hong Kong Island is extremely vibrant.

But this had nothing to do with Chan Ho-nam and Chicken, who had already arrived in Siam.

The two brothers, Jiang Tiansheng and Jiang Tianyang, have significant interests in Siam.

The maritime cargo business that was established earlier, and the later ship-blocking business, both involved enormous profits.

The scale of their maritime cargo business alone is enormous.

At first, it was just high-quality textile A-grade products. To be honest, the market was big enough, but the variety was still a bit limited.

Later, radios, bicycles, sewing machines, and other goods were added, making the profits involved even larger.

Most importantly, through these goods, Jiang Tianyang was forced to actively extend his reach into rural areas of Siam.

Ahem, in order to open up the Siamese market, Wu Feng copied all those tongue twisters from the mainland in the 1960s and 70s.

The concept that "three turns and one sound" (referring to a sewing machine, a watch, a radio, and a microphone) are essential for marriage is being constantly promoted, hoping to create a trend similar to that in mainland China.

To this end, Jiang Tianyang invested in Siam TV series and promoted it through advertorials, requiring a large number of people to help him.

In fact, Jiang Tianyang has made a fortune in recent years by taking advantage of his older brother Jiang Tiansheng's maritime cargo business.

But as the saying goes, the more money you have, the more you want to earn!

But to be honest, Jiang Tianyang's influence and strength are undeniable.

He was a powerful figure who had influence in both the legal and illegal worlds, but that was about it.

They have some influence in Bangkok, but not a huge amount; they're just typical local Chinese thugs.

Once the scale of maritime cargo transport business reaches a certain level, Jiang Tianyang's own strength becomes insufficient.

As for the issue of blocking the boats, Jiang Tianyang could offer even less assistance.

As such, Chiang Tin-sang and Hung Hing had no choice but to send enough elite henchmen to establish new branches in Siam.

Chan Ho-nam and his brothers were the elite members sent by the triad. It's unclear how Boss B, the leader of the Causeway Bay branch, was willing to release them, considering that Chan Ho-nam and his brothers were his most capable and reliable underlings.

It's likely that either the triad gave the order directly, or Boss B was trying to suppress his underlings again, which is why Chan Ho-nam and his brothers were sent out.

But a pig's trotter is a pig's trotter; it carries its own luck.

Not long after arriving in Siam, Chan Ho-nam caught the eye of Chiang Tin-yeung, who immediately transferred him from the blockade boat.

They were specifically responsible for the establishment and construction of the Siamese temple.

This is a really good opportunity!
If Chan Ho-nam performs well, he might even be able to establish a new branch and become its first leader.

His performance was indeed quite good!
With the help of his companions, including Shanji, they quickly gained a certain reputation in Bangkok's bustling commercial streets.

This is no easy task; the situation in Bangkok is far more complicated than in Hong Kong.

That's why people say pig's feet have a bit of luck that's hard to figure out.

Chen Haonan had barely arrived in Bangkok when he successfully picked up a girl.

After all, they were just gangsters. Even in a new place with a mission, it didn't stop them from chasing girls and having fun.

And so, the girl Chen Haonan finally got his hands on turned out to be the daughter of a powerful local figure, instantly opening up a world of connections.

Chicken is doing incredibly well in Bangkok!

This guy's social skills are much better than Chan Ho-nam's.

Despite spending all his time in the red-light district, he is able to easily gather enough gang information.

And so, by sheer chance, without any real planning or scheming, they somehow managed to set up their own guild.

This is wonderful news!

Wu Feng's trusted subordinate, Li Xin, immediately informed him of the good news.

"What great luck!"

Wu Feng could only sigh and say nothing more.

Fortunately, Chan Ho-nam and his group were causing trouble in Bangkok, the capital of Siam!

If this happened on Hong Kong Island, I'm afraid Boss B wouldn't be able to handle it and would die a very tragic death.

Even so, it is said that quite a few of the elite Hung Hing thugs who fought alongside Chan Ho-nam and his brothers died.

However, given the achievements of the Chan Ho-nam brothers, these deaths and injuries did not attract any attention from others.

"Tsk, some guys really shouldn't be staying in Hong Kong!"

Wu Feng remained completely unmoved by this.

I just don't know if Jiang Tianyang is tough enough.
If you spend too much time with Chan Ho-nam, I really don't know if you'll be influenced and cause unexpected incidents.

Jiang Tiansheng in the movie is the best example.

Why bring Chan Ho-nam of all people to the Netherlands?

He died under mysterious circumstances, having been plotted against in a truly tragic way.

Regardless, Chan Ho-nam and his brothers did establish a new triad, which caused quite a stir within Hung Hing, and Chan Ho-nam's reputation became very prominent.

Jiang Tiansheng was very satisfied with this, and even mentioned it to Wu Feng during a phone call.

His admiration for Chan Ho-nam was barely concealed in his words.

This is the best example of what it means to have incredible luck.

"Mr. Jiang, there are already rules for how to reward him!"

Wu Feng reminded him, "We can just talk about it on the phone. After all, we're no longer part of the gang!"

"I know, I know, isn't this just too exciting?"

Jiang Tiansheng's tone was full of joy: "Now that the gang has a base in Siam, things will be much easier to do in the future!"

Wu Feng could understand Jiang Tiansheng's happiness.

It's just a matter of how the scale of the maritime cargo business can continue to expand in the future; those are all staggering profits.

However, no matter how much benefit Jiang Tiansheng could gain, he wouldn't have much of a relationship with Wu Feng.

He quickly put the matter out of his mind!

With so many things to manage and handle, he had no time to meddle in other people's trivial matters.
He had to keep an eye on the stock market.
Although we know there won't be any major setbacks this year, we still need to be vigilant.

In fact, the matter of investing in the stock market has been making headlines recently.

The main issue is that the fact that a group of triad bosses were making money really stirred up the Hong Kong Island residents who knew about it.

In addition, ATV and the newspapers both need him to take charge!
At the very least, there cannot be any obvious problems, especially any shady dealings deliberately targeting the Hong Kong British government.

Wu Feng was aware that some high-ranking officials in the Hong Kong British government were not very fond of him, this newly rich tycoon who was clearly pro-mainland.

In particular, the TV stations and newspapers under Wu Feng's control, which were extensively publicizing Xiao Rizi's stock market affairs, certainly didn't please anyone.

This is a feast for Western financial groups, and they don't welcome Chinese capital. This is blatant discrimination.

Wu Feng's actions led to a significant influx of Hong Kong funds into the Little Life stock market, something that some high-ranking officials in the Hong Kong British government were unwilling to see.

At this time, his identities as the owner of Wufeng Film and Television Company and the owner of the football club helped to shield him from some of the pressure.

In particular, the Hong Kong government also attaches great importance to the upcoming arrival of two European teams.

There's no way around it; football's influence in Europe is simply too great.

Not to mention, one of them is a football club based in London. Even though it's only a strong team in the Second Division, who knows what connections and friends that club has in London?
Similarly, when the plane carrying the Dutch Eredivisie and English League Two football teams arrived in Hong Kong, it caused a great stir.

After that, the entire Hong Kong Island seemed to be in a state of jubilation.

In short, there was an excessive amount of publicity surrounding the two visiting teams.

Even for Wu Feng, the owner of the English League Two team, it wasn't very convenient to meet with the team in the first few days.

Fortunately, in the world of football, strength reigns supreme!
No matter how exciting things were before, the real test will eventually be on the court.

It was only then that the players who came to Hong Kong realized that their bosses were all wealthy people from Hong Kong Island.

The boss doesn't just have these two teams; he also has his own football team on Hong Kong Island. Bringing them over is actually an internal exchange match.

What else is there to say?

Not only did the players understand, but the two inexperienced head coaches also knew what was going on. Regardless, they still had to give the boss face.

Then, they met one of the owners on the field, which made them feel even more relaxed and comfortable.

But who knew that the boss who took the initiative to participate in the competition was not just playing around, but actually had the strength to surprise them all!
