Chapter 325 Big Boss, You're Overthinking It
Li Xin's attitude towards Boss B was rather distant.

It's not that I have any issues with him, it's just that our ways of doing things and our mentality in the underworld are different, so naturally we can't see eye to eye.

Big Brother B is a relatively traditional, or rather, a typical underworld boss.

They say one thing and do another; their credibility is as fragile as paper.

His own strength and skills are quite average, and he adopts a suppression strategy towards his powerful subordinates.

They have a strong desire for control and dislike having powerful subordinates who can escape their control; Da Tou is the best example of this.

On the other hand, it cannot keep up with the ever-changing business era.

Despite occupying three of the most bustling streets in Causeway Bay, they focused all their attention on triad business and had no other ambitions.

Li Xin naturally didn't want to associate with someone like that.

Li Xin rose to prominence alongside the leader Wu Feng and is considered a representative figure of the younger generation in Hung Hing. He readily embraces new things and business models.

At this time, Hung Hing underwent a tremendous change due to the appearance of Wu Feng.

Former leader Jiang Tiansheng successfully laundered his money and went ashore, while Han Bin, a major maritime smuggler, became the new leader.

This has led to a significant change in the atmosphere of Hung Hing compared to the past!
The most obvious change is that in terms of pursuing profits, they no longer blindly follow the underworld route, but instead lean towards legitimate business.

Someone like Liang Kun, who transformed so quickly, immediately transcended the ordinary category of triad bosses and became a member of high society.

The one following him the closest was Fatty Lai from North Point!
Next up is Prince Edward in Tsim Sha Tsui, who became a key participant in the "Unrestricted Fighting Tournament".

The other hall masters each have their own problems, and their transformation is quite slow.

Boss B is a typical example; otherwise, he wouldn't have been almost driven out of Causeway Bay by Uncle Ben of Tung Sing.

In fact, in Li Xin's opinion, even Bao Pi, one of Boss B's subordinates, performed better than him, the leader of the Causeway Bay gang.

The foreskin can keep up with the fast-paced business atmosphere of Hong Kong Island; that takes real skill.

Fortunately, this incident had nothing to do with the interests of the various hall masters themselves. On the contrary, it even provided them with a stable source of income, and the atmosphere at the main hall meetings has always been very good.

Basically, all the hall masters present readily agreed to Li Xin's requests; no one would turn down money.

"Handsome Xin, don't try to be as generous as your big boss martial arts actor!"

After the meeting ended, Brother Kei, who was sitting next to Li Xin, leaned over with a smile and teased, "Wouldn't it be better if Hung Hing monopolized such a good money-making opportunity? There's no need to share it with other triads!"

"My boss doesn't want to waste his energy dealing with other triads in Hong Kong!"

Li Xin chuckled and said, "This time they owe a favor to Hung Hing and my boss, so they'll have to help with the promotion of DVD players!"

"Wu Sheng truly lives up to his reputation as a god of wealth!"

Beside them, the plump, beautiful mother-in-law, the head of the Sham Shui Po gang, surprisingly spoke up, saying, "There are just too many poor people in Sham Shui Po!"

"Not to mention public housing estates, even ordinary residential areas can be used to set up multi-room screening rooms. This time, I'm going to go all out!"

She said it, and that's really what she thought.

If it weren't for her close relationship with the former head of the Chiang family, the beautiful mother wouldn't have been able to hold onto her position as the head of the Sham Shui Po branch at all.

It wasn't that she lacked ability or skill; it was simply that she was broke.

To put it simply, the Sham Shui Po triad is the largest stronghold within Hung Hing in the red-light district, but unfortunately, it can't compete with Portland Street.

The team under the pretty mom is full of scoundrels and scoundrels; how can you expect them to be able to fight and compete?
If she weren't possibly the person directly in charge of the firearms team secretly trained by the former leader Chiang family, she probably wouldn't have been able to maintain her position within Hung Hing.

This time, Li Xin's proposal of a multi-room screening room really helped her a lot. There are also detailed revenue figures, indicating a very bright future.

Most importantly, with her influence in Sham Shui Po, she could truly monopolize the benefits of multiple theaters.

"According to the big boss, you can never earn enough money!"

Li Xin smiled and said, "Don't let short-term gains blind you. It's best to avoid trouble if possible!"

He really had no interest in dealing with Brother Ji, who was such a fickle person.

Everyone knows that Da Fei is the one who carries the weight of words in Sai Wan right now.

Although Brother Ji has not been completely sidelined, his voice and influence have been compressed to a rather dangerous level.

In other words, Dafei didn't intend to kill to rise to power; otherwise, no matter how experienced Brother Ji was in the underworld, there would always be a time when he couldn't escape.

Meanwhile, Lung Kan, the Mong Kok gang leader, and his henchman Kwan Tsz-sum were also researching the multi-room cinema project.

That's why I say those two guys have finally figured it out.

They kept a close eye on Wu Feng, and they were determined to imitate whatever Wu Feng did, only regretting giving up on what they couldn't.

And so it is true that they are more successful in running legitimate businesses than in their triad businesses.

This is also the main reason why they had few options against the biggest boss in the winning streak, Deng Bo, and the Dragon Root.

If it's triad business, he can intervene and interfere in the name of Lian Sheng. Unless Long Gen transfers or switches sides, he can only obediently endure it.

In the movie, why was Big D from Tsuen Wan so actively involved in the Dragon Head election?

Besides having the necessary strength, there are also business-related factors.

Uncle Deng would not allow any business involving the gang to proceed.

This prevented Big D from collaborating deeply with those big bosses on businesses like nightclubs, resulting in significant losses.

Once you become the leader, all these constraints will naturally disappear!

Putting aside the digression, the multi-room screening room that Wu Feng had Li Xin experimentally set up in a public housing estate in Mong Kok has already caught the eye of Lung Kan and Kwan Tsz-sum.

Privately, he sent out some clever underlings to gather information.

Although detailed data is unavailable, the general situation can still be understood.

When the news reached Longgen and Guanzisen, they naturally had to think about it carefully, and that's why they thought of directly imitating and replicating it.

Anyway, this isn't the first or second time they've imitated Wu Feng's actions.

They've basically never lost money, thanks to the large number of underlings they have and the low cost, making it easy to imitate.

Just then, Uncle Deng suddenly called and told them about Hung Hing's ideas, and they immediately felt that they had lost hundreds of millions.

"What's wrong with Wu Sheng?"

Longgen asked doubtfully, "This time, they didn't even give us time to have a sip of soup. Are they deliberately being wary of us?"

"You're overthinking it, boss!"

Guan Zisen, however, understood perfectly. Based on his own understanding, he said, "Wu Sheng is worried that if he doesn't give us a heads-up beforehand, we'll all rush to imitate him, and nobody will benefit!"
