The world begins with Hong Kong movies

Chapter 370 Dealing with Mindset (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
Although Wu Feng stopped his targeted public opinion counterattacks, he did not stop his psychological manipulation tactics.

The more someone wants to protect something, the more they will try to stab that person in the heart.

"Issuing football lottery?"

Huo Daheng was quite surprised and looked at Wu Feng with a rather strange expression.

"is there a problem?"

Wu Feng countered, "With the football atmosphere in Hong Kong so vibrant right now, launching a football lottery would be perfect!"

"Apart from various office and operating expenses, all the money I earn is donated to charity, and the figures are made public and transparent!"

The football market in Hong Kong is booming right now!
Riding the wave of Hong Kong FC's qualification for the World Cup finals, major professional clubs have seen smooth progress in advertising, ticket sales, and merchandise development, resulting in a significant increase in revenue.

If the momentum can be maintained, the prospects for the Hong Kong Island City Professional Football League are still good.

The key is being able to make money; that's the fundamental thing!
At this juncture, launching a football lottery would be a shot in the arm for the football market, making Wu Feng's suggestion reasonable.

But who is Huo Daheng? How could he not perceive Wu Feng's 'sinister intentions'?
"Are you trying to cause trouble for the Jockey Club?"

He didn't stand on ceremony and directly pointed out Wu Feng's thoughts.

The Hong Kong Jockey Club is a powerful tool for foreigners to bleed money from Hong Kong.

Although the Hong Kong Jockey Club does donate a portion of its profits to charity each year to build its reputation, it is insignificant compared to its enormous profits.

When horse racing starts, almost the entire population participates, demonstrating just how incredibly lucrative it is.

Many Hong Kong films and television dramas feature similar storylines.

The most famous of them all, "Uncle Piu," started his career as a horse racing host, which helped him become a household name in Hong Kong.
Of course, the Hong Kong Jockey Club is a behemoth, and Wu Feng naturally didn't intend to directly confront it. But he could at least share some of the profits from the hot football market with bettors, right?

"Look at what you're saying, it makes it sound like I'm plotting something!"

Wu Feng chuckled and said slowly, "Whether this matter can be accomplished depends on you, Elder Huo!"

Anyway, he came up with the idea, and whether Huo Daheng is willing to accept it or not is none of Wu Feng's business.

As Huo Daheng said, his idea was meant to cause trouble for the Hong Kong Jockey Club, but at the same time it was very beneficial to the development of professional football in Hong Kong.

How can the development of commercial football be separated from football betting?
As long as the competition remains relatively fair, the existence of football betting will definitely be a shot in the arm for the development of professional football.

"Okay, I'll take care of it!"

Huo Daheng was quite domineering; although he knew there would be a lot of trouble involved, he still readily agreed.

In fact, the biggest losers in football betting are not the Hong Kong Jockey Club, but the betting venues in Macau. They don't care about offending anyone.

"You need to prepare well. If you can perform well in the World Cup, everything you do in Hong Kong will go smoothly!"

Huo Daheng naturally knew the reason why Wu Feng suddenly did this.

He wasn't bothered by it; what's wrong with young people being a little hot-tempered?
It's a good thing that those troublesome core members of the Jockey Club are distracted by football betting.

"Don't worry, Elder Huo, I know what's important!"

Back at his residence, he immediately gave instructions to begin the next step.

Soon after, an ATV football commentary program discussing the World Cup and the prospects of the Hong Kong team raised a rather attention-grabbing question: "If the Hong Kong team and England are drawn into the same group, should the Hong Kong team voluntarily give up one match?"

This topic immediately caused a huge uproar.

Upon hearing the news, some British elites immediately lost their temper and started cursing on television: "Are some people out of their minds? What level is the Hong Kong team? And what level is the England team?"

"If the two teams were in the same group, England would crush Hong Kong Island without a doubt!"

Without a doubt, you, Ma, B!

These guys were met with a barrage of condemnation and insults from the citizens of Hong Kong Island, who were practically ready to curse their ancestors for eighteen generations.

An ATV on-location presenter happened to be interviewing a Hong Kong Island football fan on the street, asking him for his opinion on these remarks.

"What else is there to say? I think the guy who said that is definitely not from Hong Kong. I don't know what he's thinking. He doesn't even dare to dream about it. I wonder how much of a bribe the England team gave him?"

This interview was broadcast directly during ATV's prime-time news slot, sparking even more heated discussions in Hong Kong.

"They barely made it to the World Cup finals, and now they're so arrogant they've forgotten who they are! It's pathetic!"

I don't know if it was that street interview that provoked a certain group, or some influential person.

In short, the next day, some newspaper headlines were filled with these guys either making sarcastic remarks or directly hurling insults.

You can't stand this?

If it were a cyberattack from later generations, wouldn't it cause someone to burst their blood vessels from anger?
Seeing this, Wu Feng immediately ordered ATV, his newspapers, and the newspapers of his allies to take action.

"This is utterly ridiculous! If Hong Kong people don't support their own team, are they even Hong Kong people?"

Breaking News: Hong Kong elites favor England as the home team, making various derogatory and pessimistic remarks about the Hong Kong team, sparking public outrage!

"Where did this clown come from? Hong Kong Island is too small to accommodate such a large Buddha statue. It should just go back to the British mainland!"

A citizen interviewed expressed astonishment: "The Hong Kong Island team has just qualified for the World Cup finals. Some people who don't like football shouldn't spoil other people's fun!"

"Unbelievable! Hong Kong elites have already offered advice to the England team, claiming they are guaranteed to win against them!"

"..."

Various sensational and eye-catching newspaper headlines instantly ignited the entire morning in Hong Kong.

Readers who saw the newspaper were furious and hurled insults, almost ready to storm into some of the guys' homes and start yelling at them.

Suddenly, the Hong Kong media erupted into a heated exchange of words between the two sides, drawing the attention of almost everyone.

Unfortunately, this controversy is quite novel for everyone in Hong Kong, even the wealthiest people have been affected.

"Now, those annoying guys don't have the time or energy to keep an eye on us. Has the short-selling of Little Life's stock been exposed?"

Wu Feng put down the newspaper in his hand and asked his trusted subordinate, "This matter must be handled discreetly. We should use all the financial companies we have in the Cayman Islands, Switzerland, and Luxembourg!"

"Don't worry, boss, we'll do a good job!"
