The world begins with Hong Kong movies

Chapter 311 Things Are Different Now (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

"Boss, how about we join the English League Two?"

At the post-match banquet, Ranieri approached Wu Feng and proposed a rather bold idea.

"Are there restrictions on foreign players in League Two?"

Wu Feng asked curiously, "My connections over there aren't great, so I can't do anything about it!"

"Boss, Hong Kong Island is a member of the Commonwealth!"

Ranelli, clearly prepared, said confidently, "No problem!"

"Oh, I have a lot on my plate!"

Wu Feng chuckled and said, "It's fine to be a substitute if you have time, but it's unlikely that you'll spend most of your time and energy playing football throughout the year!"

"That's it!"

Ranieri was disappointed, but understandable: "How about this, the boss becomes a formal player for the club, and plays a couple of games when he has time?"

He realized that Wu Feng, the boss, was incredibly powerful.

His running ability, linking ability, and ball transfer ability are all excellent, and his most amazing skill is his superb cannon shot.

As long as his teammates in the midfield and forward positions can pass the ball to Wu Feng, he has a high chance of unleashing a powerful shot.

There aren't many goalkeepers who can withstand continuous heavy artillery bombardment.

Wu Feng agreed!

He discovered that the Bagua Step improved extremely quickly through intense football matches, and that it might be even more effective in basketball or rugby matches.

Who told him to prefer football!
The English Second Division is known for its brutal and intense competition, and Wu Feng can make better use of this match environment to further improve his Bagua Step.

Of course, there's no need to stay in England all the time; it's not a problem to go there occasionally to play a few games.

In the following match, Wu Feng also gave Jiang Tiansheng's Dutch league team a profound lesson.

He never showed favoritism. Since his own team had already enjoyed the treatment, there was no reason for Jiang Tiansheng's team to escape the heavy artillery bombardment.

In short, it was another 6-4 scoreline, leaving a bunch of potential superstars who hadn't fully risen to prominence questioning their existence.

Hong Kong Island fans, on the other hand, were as happy as if it were Chinese New Year!
Before the match, they could never have imagined that their own Hong Kong team could make the European team look so humiliated and pathetic.
Unfortunately, a beautiful dream is just a beautiful dream, and it soon came to an end.

The two European teams, now serious, completely overwhelmed the Hong Kong professional teams that would later play friendly matches against them.

If it weren't for the timely intervention of the two inexperienced head coaches, the score difference could have reached double digits, which would have made the two owners lose face.

In today's football world, the mainstream is still the individual ability of star players!

With a truly outstanding star player, a team's performance can be easily boosted, especially for professional teams in Hong Kong.

All the enthusiastic Hong Kong Island fans were doused with a bucket of cold water.

"The gap between Hong Kong teams and European teams is still quite large!"

Huo Daheng watched the game, and his expression didn't change much, but the resentment in his tone was quite obvious.

"It's not that exaggerated!"

Sitting to the side, Wu Feng disagreed, saying, "If your skills aren't good enough, you have to make up for it in other ways. If you don't even have this much determination and courage, then you're truly terrible!"

Originally, he had no interest in watching the rest of the match.

As expected, the Hong Kong British government and HSBC Group started causing trouble.

It's possible that Wu Feng's instigation led to a massive influx of Hong Kong capital into the Little Life stock market, displeasing certain entities and forces. Or perhaps, some forces felt Wu Feng was too prone to causing trouble and wanted to teach him a lesson.

In short, Wu Feng's companies were implicitly targeted by the Hong Kong British government.

They won't openly suppress it, but rather they'll create obstacles in various procedures and business transactions that require government signatures.

It's really disgusting to delay anything for half a month.

Fortunately, Wu Feng didn't work in finance or securities, nor did he enter the real estate industry.

The companies under his management are all in the cultural industry.

For example, if ATV adds a channel, whether it's half a month earlier or later doesn't matter much.

The same applies to newly created programs; as long as they do not directly cross the red lines of the Hong Kong British government, any difficulties they encounter are only temporary.

As I said before, Wu Feng has now matured.

His subordinates also own a media empire, making them not so easy to target.

If Wu Feng were to disregard everything and recklessly abandon numerous industries to thoroughly humiliate the Hong Kong British government, it could easily create a major international scandal, and everyone would suffer the consequences.

Not to mention, the Hong Kong British government had almost no control over the film industry, and Wu Feng's Fengrui Films had a certain reputation all over the world.

In Asia, they are all top-tier film and television production companies.

If Fengrui Films were to create various obstacles for the Hong Kong British government in the movies, they wouldn't have much of a way to deal with it.

To put it simply, film companies are asset-light!
Even if it can't be operated on Hong Kong Island, it can still be operated on the mainland or in Singapore, and the film can still be easily sold all over the world.

Of course, while his businesses were affected, they weren't in a completely passive position, as he also had allies.

In fact, it wasn't that no high-ranking foreign officials from the Hong Kong government had secretly approached him through agents, wanting to ride on Wu Feng's coattails in investing in the Little Life stock market.

After all, Wu Feng's profits speak for themselves; those foreigners aren't going to turn down money, and they especially love money.

Apart from the Governor, the foreigners who were sent to Hong Kong Island were basically marginal figures from the British mainland.

It was difficult to make a living in the UK, so he tried to move to Hong Kong Island to earn money.

Similarly, they were in a rather weak position when facing British conglomerates that were rooted in Hong Kong Island and had extensive connections in the UK.

Regular filial piety gifts will not be lacking, but making big money is unlikely.

For example, in this grand feast where European and American conglomerates were hunting down small businesses, the British-owned conglomerates in Hong Kong simply wouldn't include them.

Sometimes, things are just that absurd!

Some of the high-ranking foreigners in the Hong Kong British government were actually objects of contempt and disdain by British-funded conglomerates.

Some things are not as complicated as you might imagine.

Wu Feng's various antics and the powerful publicity he generated were no joke, and some foreigners wanted to ride his coattails.

Wu Feng did not refuse, but gladly accepted.

One of the financial companies set up in the Cayman Islands specifically caters to these foreigners, and they naturally have to reciprocate.

As such, Wu Feng had received news of being targeted early on.

At the same time, there was no consensus among senior officials of the Hong Kong British government regarding his position.

Regardless of the circumstances, being targeted is being targeted, and Wu Feng still has to spend some time paying attention to it; otherwise, it would be ridiculous if he were caught off guard.
