Hong Kong Film Intelligence King

Chapter 212 Bringing Dongxing into the Game?

"Dongxing?!"

"Don't you know that handsome guy Nan from Dongxing killed my boss?"

"You still dare to mention Dongxing's name?"

Jiang Tianyang stared at Chen Yao like a hungry wolf.

"Don't you know what Ah Kun wants?"

"He explicitly stated that we cannot lose fans!"

"Don't you know that the Prince of Tsim Sha Tsui has a grudge against Ah Ben?"

How dare you make such a request?

Having held a high position for a long time, Jiang Tianyang possessed an invisible aura of menace. Even Chen Yao couldn't withstand his anger.

Immediately, sweat poured down Chen Yao's face, and his complexion turned pale.

Jiang Tianyang said calmly:

"If you don't give me a proper reason, then I'll take action according to family rules."

Chen Yao composed himself and quickly said:

“Mr. Jiang, I have my reasons.”

Jiang Tianyang suddenly composed himself and said calmly:
"Speak slowly."

Chen Yao smiled wryly:
“Mr. Jiang, I haven’t forgotten what Brother Kun asked us to do. Some people in Dongxing did leave, but not everyone did.”

"If everyone really turned to cigarettes, Mr. Chiang wouldn't have been drinking tea with Camel so often."

"There are so many gangs in the underworld, it's normal for a few people to lose their fans."

"Just like Babi of Hetu, he also lost fans, but that doesn't mean that everyone in Hetu lost fans."

"Otherwise, Binni wouldn't have been invited by Brother Kun and Mr. Chiang to join Hung Hing."

Jiang Tianyang nodded:

"You're right, go on."

Chen Yao was really scared.

Jiang Tianyang spoke so gently, but he truly didn't know what the other person was thinking.

I thought serving Jiang Tiansheng was difficult enough, but I never expected that Jiang Tianyang would be ten times more difficult than Jiang Tiansheng.

"The martial arts world is not just about fighting and killing, but also about human relationships and social interactions."

"Yes, the former leader died at the hands of Chen Haonan of Dongxing."

"However, those in positions of power should not be swayed by emotions."

"As for Chan Ho-nam's matter..."

"I don't think anyone in the martial arts world will spread this."

Indeed, the person who spread the inside story of Jiang Tiansheng's death disappeared the very next day. Both He Liansheng and He Xingsheng remained tight-lipped about the matter concerning these two men.

There are all sorts of rumors circulating in the martial arts world.

Under such circumstances, who would dare to spread rumors about Jiang Tiansheng's death?

Jiang Tianyang smiled and glanced at Chen Yao:
"Makes sense!"

Chen Yao broke out in a cold sweat.

He was really scared.

Jiang Tianyang said calmly:

"What are you afraid of?"

"You are the guinea pig of the organization, and you have an obligation to provide me with intelligence services."

"It is your responsibility to make suggestions, and it is my duty to adopt them appropriately."

"As long as you act with impartiality, I will not blame you."

Chen Yao breathed a sigh of relief:

"Jiang Sheng is magnanimous."

Chiang Tin-sang died at the hands of Chan Ho-nam; Hung Hing and Tung Hing were enemies.

Jiang Tianyang's ability to disregard the feud between the two groups is truly admirable.

"You don't need to be so nervous."

"Although Hong Kong is a place where East meets West and China blends together, we are still our hometown people."

"Those Western tricks don't work on us."

There's a saying in my hometown: "Treat your relatives, not those who are right."

"This leads to another saying: relatives should protect each other."

There's also an old saying: "Don't wash your dirty linen in public."

"My brother's affair is a shameful matter no matter what, and it cannot be discussed."

"The martial arts world is not about fighting and killing, but about human relationships and social interactions."

"That's right."

"Okay, don't think about anything else, I'll talk to Ah Kun."

Chen Yao was sincerely convinced:

"Jiang Sheng is wise."

Jiang Tianyang shook his head and smiled. "Wise?"
That was a really clumsy attempt at flattery.

However, he couldn't ask for too much. Although Chen Yao was a rare talent in Hung Hing, he was still a short mule. Expecting him to have any education was simply asking too much.

It's far inferior to the Wang Dao who's by Ah Kun's side.

Jiang Tianyang said to Chen Yao:

"You should take good care of your injury; I need your help."

Chen Yao immediately relaxed. Jiang Sheng needs me, so what else is there to say?

"Mr. Jiang, I'm actually fine."

Jiang Tianyang shook his head:

“You just had surgery, and you still dare to say you’re fine.”

"The earliest you can get the stitches removed is at least half a month later."

He waved his hand,

"You should rest well and recover as soon as possible; that will help me."

Chen Yao was especially grateful:

"Take care, Mr. Jiang."

Jiang Tianyang smiled and nodded, then walked straight away.

Chen Yao's smile vanished, replaced by a bitter grin.

He was Jiang Tiansheng's confidant and was fully aware of the relationship between the two brothers.

I thought Jiang Tianyang would be happy about Jiang Tiansheng's death, but I didn't expect that it wasn't like that at all.

Chen Yao's lips curled into a bitter smile; this misjudgment was truly disastrous!
How to do?
The path of a loyal minister is not easy to take.

Jiang Tianyang sneered. Even if Chen Yao hadn't said anything, he could smell the stench of conspiracy and intrigue over the past few days. It was like the pungent smell of salted fish from Hong Kong.

These guys are all scheming.

Even Jiang Tiansheng's left and right hands were like that, which was chilling.

Jiang Tianyang immediately laughed. Sure enough, these people in Hong Kong haven't changed at all.

But isn't that just how the martial arts world is?
Jiang Tianyang shrugged. He didn't rule out the possibility that the leaders of Hung Hing had their own little schemes, and that it was someone like Liang Kun who would give him a headache.

In Jiang Tianyang's view, Liang Kun was good in every way, except that he didn't care much about the affairs of the gang.

This left him feeling both melancholy and fortunate.

What's frustrating is that Leung Kwan is a formidable member; with his help, things would be much easier for him. Fortunately, Leung Kwan hasn't taken the gang's affairs too seriously, otherwise, his position might be precarious.

I have very conflicting feelings.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Tianyang decided to call Liang Kun:

"Ah Kun, do you have time to visit me?"

Liang Kun paused for a moment, but still readily agreed:
"I'm at the film company. Should I send someone to pick you up?"

Jiang Tianyang laughed and said, "No need for that, I'll be right there."

Fifteen minutes later, Jiang Tianyang arrived at Qiankun Film and Television Company.

Liang Kun invited him to sit down and served him tea, then asked curiously:

"Mr. Jiang, we just parted ways. Is there something we haven't explained to each other yet?"

Jiang Tianyang smiled wryly:

"There's something I'm unsure about, and I'm afraid you'll be angry, so I wanted to meet you in person to talk to you about it."

Liang Kun and Wang Dao exchanged a glance, both looking surprised.

Wang Dao immediately said:
"Mr. Jiang, should I leave?"

Jiang Tianyang shook his head:

"No need. You're the club's guinea pig, you can also offer your advice."

Handsome Kun laughed:

“You are my trusted confidant. If even you are avoided, then I don’t know who else in Hung Hing I can trust.”

"Mr. Jiang, you can speak frankly about what's on your mind."

Jiang Tianyang took a deep breath and finally spoke up to tell the story:
"After listening to Ah Kun's advice, I went to the hospital to discuss with Chen Yao. He gave me three club names. The other two were fine, but I couldn't decide on the last one."

Liang Kun asked in surprise:
"With so many clubs, why not just pick three at random?"

Jiang Tianyang shook his head:

"This club is putting me in a difficult position."

Liang Kun was taken aback, then turned to ask Wang Dao:
"Ah Dao, which triad in Yau Tsim Mong is giving us trouble?"

Wang Dao thought for a moment and said:

"There are only a few triads that have close ties with our Hung Hing."

“Xinji, Xinliansheng, Hexingsheng, Dongxing, Yizidui, Yongzidui…”

"The number gang has too many dirty tricks. If we choose them, their rapid development might cause their number pool to split up again, which is not in line with our original intention."

"With the connection between Hesheng and Binni, cooperation is indeed possible."

"However, because of the old man's matter, the gods might harbor resentment towards us. To be on the safe side, it's best not to involve them."

"The only one left is Dongxing..."

"After thinking about it, I think Mr. Jiang is probably undecided about the Dongxing gang."

Liang Kun pondered for a moment and said:
"Xinliansheng, Xinji, Dongxing?"

Jiang Tianyang exclaimed in admiration:

"As expected of Ah Kun's right-hand man, Ah Dao, your analysis is absolutely correct."

Wang Dao shook his head:
"It's nothing, I'm just thinking about things from the perspective of a blank paper fan."

“Ah Yao and I are both innocent fans; we share the same concerns.”

Jiang Tianyang asked Liang Kun:

"Ah Kun, how about Dongxing?"

Handsome Kun smiled and said:
"I said, Mr. Jiang can make the decision on this matter."

"As long as Tung Hing doesn't sell noodles at its branches in Yau Tsim Mong, there won't be any problems."

"Although Chen Guozhong is usually easy to talk to, once he finds out that we made the wrong choice..."

“I can’t guarantee he won’t unleash his fury on us.”

Jiang Tianyang asked in surprise, "Ah Kun, you don't object to me bringing Dongxing over?"

Lam Kwan shrugged and said honestly:
"I have no major conflicts with Dongxing."

"The one who really has a conflict with Dongxing is Jiang Sheng."

"No matter how you try to deny it, you can't explain Chen Haonan's situation."

Jiang Tianyang said incredulously:
"Ah Kun, you have no conflict with Dongxing?"

Lam Kwan nodded:
"There is no contradiction!"

Jiang Tianyang smiled wryly:

"But when you first took up your post..."

Liang Kun suddenly realized:

"Oh, that's what you mean. I don't think it's a contradiction."

"I wasn't the one who suffered a loss back then."

Handsome Kun smiled:
"Whenever I deal with Hung Hing, I am never the one who suffers a loss."

Jiang Tianyang was speechless.

Indeed, when Liang Kun returned from prison, he casually uncovered the massive conspiracy between Dongxing's Ah Ben and Hung Hing's Chiang Tin-sang.

I heard that the two of them each lost five million due to Liang Kun's scheme.

In addition, the four thugs from Dongxing were bedridden for more than two months.

In addition, there's Long Fei... that was also information that Liang Kun leaked to Jiang Tiansheng, who then used it to win over Hong An.

Liang Kun sincerely said:
“Mr. Jiang, as long as you can guarantee that your influence in Tung Hing and Yau Tsim Mong will not be lost, I have no problem.”

"After all, I'm not the one who's going to suffer a loss."

Jiang Tianyang was stunned, then shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Leung Kwan's reaction was both unexpected and reasonable.

Yes, Dongxing has never gained the upper hand in dealing with Liangkun, so why would Liangkun care about Dongxing?

Liang Kun said:

"Actually, it's not me who's in a difficult position, it's you."

"The former leader was ultimately harmed by Dongxing. You are able to put aside your grudges and prioritize the overall situation."

"This magnanimity is something that others cannot match."

"If it were me, I would just enjoy the pleasure first and think about the consequences later."

Jiang Tianyang looked at Liang Kun suspiciously, then thought for a moment and asked directly:

"Ah Kun, are you being sarcastic?"

Handsome Kun shook his head and said:
"I'm telling the truth."

"I have already investigated the matter between Xianlongtou and Liangzai Nan."

"It was indeed something that the leader and the camel had agreed upon."

"Even Camel didn't expect that Chan Ho-nam would be so fierce."

“This is different from the Chan Ho-nam we all know.”

"But there's nothing we can do. What's done is done, and there's no way to undo it."

"If it were up to me, I would definitely lead my men to make Dongxing famous first."

"However, I am not the leader; I only know how to settle scores."

"In comparison, we truly admire Mr. Chiang for being able to set aside personal grievances and prioritize the overall interests of the gang."

Wang Dao echoed:
"Kun is right. It does take a grand vision to bring Dongxing in."

"Mr. Jiang is truly admirable."

Jiang Tianyang confirmed repeatedly:
"You're really not being sarcastic?"

Both of them shook their heads in unison, and Jiang Tianyang immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Liang Kun would object, which would prevent the matter from progressing.

When looking for a partner organization, you should definitely look for one you know well.

Dongxing is a good partner.

Jiang Tianyang sighed:
“Ah Kun, I am truly touched by your trust in me.”

Handsome Kun waved his hand:

"After all, I am the Grand Marshal of Hung Hing, so it is only right that I cooperate with Mr. Chiang's work."

Jiang Tianyang said happily:

"It's good that you don't object, Ah Kun."

Liang Kun reminded him:
“Jiang Sheng, I think you should communicate with the Crown Prince in advance.”

Jiang Tianyang smiled and said:

"That's natural."

"Actually, my order of visits is to come to you first, and then to the Crown Prince. If I can't even get past you, then I don't need to go and pay my respects to the Crown Prince."

Handsome Kun smiled:
"It's good that Mr. Jiang knows what's going on."

Jiang Tianyang was in a good mood:
"In that case, I'll go see the Crown Prince first."

Wang Dao suddenly asked:

"Mr. Jiang, there shouldn't be any problems with the Crown Prince."

"I'd like to ask, after your meeting with the Crown Prince, are you going to begin your plans?"

Jiang Tianyang nodded:

"Yes, after paying my respects to the Crown Prince, I summoned the leaders of the three gangs to discuss our grand plan."

Wang Dao shook his head and said:
"Inappropriate."

Jiang Tianyang was taken aback:
"Why?"

Wang Dao chuckled lightly:
“Mr. Jiang, I suggest you first call on people from Xinji and Xinliansheng... Dongxing can be put on hold for a while.”

Jiang Tianyang asked curiously:

"Why?"

Wang Dao explained:
“It’s not a good deal to be too eager for someone to do something, especially since he has a deep-seated grudge against us.”

"Whether for public or private reasons, we cannot let the other party benefit for nothing."

Jiang Tianyang asked, puzzled:

"Won't this be going too far?"

Wang Dao said calmly:
"The person in charge of a large organization has a clear vision and strategy."

"If a camel doesn't understand what we're going to do... he's not fit to steer Dongxing."

"We shouldn't bring this up first; we should have Dongxing take the initiative to ask us for help."

Jiang Tianyang's eyes lit up:

"Hey, that's a good suggestion."

Even a clay figure has a bit of temper, let alone Jiang Tianyang.

Was it because he didn't want to seek justice from Dongxing? Although Jiang Tiansheng's assassination was his own fault, he was actually assassinated by Dongxing's people. He was prioritizing the greater good and was suppressing his rage.

This is a matter of his pride.

No matter how pathetic Jiang Tiansheng's death was, he was still a member of the Jiang family.

While Jiang Tianyang prioritized the overall situation, he ultimately lost face.

Those who live by the law are usually opportunistic and forget about morality.

They know best what they are asking for.

Jiang Tiansheng was Jiang Tianyang's elder brother, yet he didn't utter a sound when he was assassinated by Dongxing's men. How can we guarantee that Jiang Tianyang would speak up for others if they were assassinated?

Such people don't care about the big picture of the leader; all they can see is that Jiang Tianyang remains silent about the assassination of his boss.

They completely disregarded the significant impact this incident would have on Hung Hing.

They can't think that far ahead.

this is the truth.

Jiang Tianyang certainly wanted to fight to avenge his older brother, but after carefully analyzing the pros and cons, he decided to hold back.

But that doesn't mean Jiang Tianyang doesn't want to save face.

Now that we have this opportunity, what else is there to say?
"Ado, do you have any good ideas?"

Wang Dao chuckled lightly:
"I do have something to say..."

"However, that would require the involvement of the triad."

Jiang Tianyang laughed even more heartily:

"It would be better if the student organization stepped in."

"Just tell me."

Jiang Tianyang was genuinely happy. Right now, he needed the kind of thing that gangs would handle. He wouldn't be happy if a certain leader had to do it.

When a community organization intervenes, it enhances its own prestige.

He was very clear about this.

Wang Dao chuckled lightly:
"Actually, this matter also relates to a branch of our Hong clan."

Jiang Tianyang was taken aback:
"A branch of the Hong clan?"

Wang Dao nodded slightly.

"Hung Fook of Yuen Long is in big trouble now."

Jiang Tianyang was taken aback:
"Good fortune? Tang Bao's good fortune?"

Wang Dao explained:
"Yes, Hongfu is currently facing internal and external troubles. If things are not handled properly, Hongfu will collapse..."

Jiang Tianyang asked suspiciously:

"Tang Bao is very shrewd. What exactly happened?"

Handsome Kun smiled:

“I know about this. Tang Bao’s son, Tang Wenjun, is a scoundrel who’s eyeing Feilong’s fortune. Tang Bao’s henchman, Ma Wang, has been bribed. Ostensibly, he’s colluding with Tang Wenjun, but in reality, he’s secretly working with Hua Fu of Dongxing…”

He explained the matter in detail, and Jiang Tianyang's eyes lit up:
"Ah Kun, I remember you beat up this Hua Fu before, right?"

Liang Kun nodded slightly.

"Actually, Hua Fu had only been out of the hospital for a short time."

Jiang Tianyang laughed heartily:
"Hongfu is, after all, a branch of my Hongmen. How can we allow others to bully us?"

"Ah Kun, just go ahead and do it, the key points don't matter."

A cold glint flashed in his eyes.
"The harder you hit, the better. You have to make the other person beg for mercy."

Handsome Kun laughed:

"clear."

Jiang Tianyang was immediately in a good mood:
“I made the right decision to come here today.”

"Ah Kun, I'm going to see the Crown Prince now."

After Jiang Tianyang left, Liang Kun asked:

"Ado, what do you think?"

Wang Dao shrugged:

"His ability to control his emotions is indeed admirable, just as the newspaper said."

Handsome Kun shook his head:
"Compared to that, I still appreciate a straightforward style."

"The real thrill comes from getting revenge right away."
