Hong Kong Film Intelligence King

Chapter 237 Threat, This is a threat!
"Ah Luo, is this the first time you've met me?" Ah Ben said, quite displeased. "I'm not interested in fighting and killing; I'm only interested in making money."

"There are many ways to make money, but don't lose followers," Camel cautioned. "If other members of our group want to lose followers, let them be. Consider it their contribution to the group's public funds."

“Aben, you are different.”

"You're the club's main water tap, you can't get involved in any powdering."

"Nonsense!" Aben was very angry. "Ah Luo, how old am I? Do I need you to lecture me?"

"My bad~" the camel also felt embarrassed, "It's settled then."

Aben nodded slightly.

I must say, at this age, it feels good to have someone who cares about you.

Just as the camel was about to get up and leave, the phone rang.

"Hey, it's Liang Kun!" Camel said to Aben in surprise. "Ah Kun, would you like to invite me for tea?"

Whether it's Camel or Liang Kun, they both belong to the old-fashioned school and are traditional江湖人 (jianghu people).

Such people value rules and regulations.

The boss protects the underlings, and the underlings support the boss; the most important thing is to follow the rules.

If someone doesn't follow the rules, they will definitely feel disgusted.

Both of them are very sociable, and you could say they have friends all over the world.

The fact that Ah Ben and Chiang Tin-sang could work together so well to create a major syndicate is enough to demonstrate the friendship between Tung Sing and Hung Hing.

Liang Kun is also a social butterfly: "Uncle Camel, what kind of tea do you like to drink? Cantonese black tea? Fujian rock tea? Or Yunnan and Guizhou high mountain green tea? Or Wanwan oolong tea? If not, Lion Peak Longjing? Taiping Houkui? Biluochun? Liuan Guapian?"

"Stop talking," the camel chuckled dryly. "Don't tempt me."

“With Uncle Camel’s status in the underworld, what kind of famous tea can’t he drink?” Liang Kun laughed. “If you’re not feeling generous, I can send you some.”

"We can talk about tea later," Camel quickly interrupted Liang Kun. The other party's witty remarks were a bit overwhelming. "You don't come here unless you have something to say. Let's just be frank."

"That's great!" Liang Kun exclaimed. "Everyone in the martial arts world says that Uncle Camel, you are a man of great principles and the most straightforward. You truly live up to your reputation."

"Ah Kun, I can't accept such high praise," Camel urged. "I'm with Ah Ben right now. If you don't have anything else, I'm hanging up."

"I just love dealing with straightforward people," Liang Kun chuckled. "Uncle Camel, I have some information I want to sell you!"

Camel was about to hang up the phone. What was going on?

You've sold information to me?

Is that a mistake?

Just as Camel was about to refuse, Liang Kun said, "It's crucial intelligence concerning the life and death of Dongxing."

I can't hang up this phone.

"Ah Kun, don't lie to me. If you really lie to me, you know what the consequences will be."

"I understand!" Handsome Kun said with a smile. "Two million!"

The camel cursed, "You're robbing me!"

"Two million for a single intelligence report?"

"Why don't you just rob a bank?!"

"Isn't this faster and safer than robbing a bank?" Liang Kun asked in surprise. "Besides, you're giving me money because you think this intelligence is worth two million!"

"otherwise……"

Leung Kwan didn't continue talking about the rest, and actually, there was no need to. Those who understand, understand.

"Aben, what do you think?" Camel gestured with his eyes, having already put the phone on speakerphone when he answered.

Aben thought about it carefully and nodded firmly: "Say yes!"

"Okay, I'll take it." Camel reminded him, "Ah Kun, don't lie to me."

“Why would I lie to you about something like this?” Liang Kun said clearly. “We’re both in the same boat, we’ll run into each other all the time. If I were to lie to you about something so small, how could I possibly have a good life?”

Camel laughed heartily: "Liang Kun, you really are insightful."

"Let's meet and talk in detail sometime," Camel suggested.

"Why make such a fuss?" Liang Kun said dismissively. "It's just a matter of a few words. Do you think I'm afraid you'll try to cheat me?"

Camel was utterly speechless: "That's two million! Enough to buy a luxury house in Repulse Bay, and you're really so at ease?"

"With Uncle Camel's reputation, you wouldn't be trying to renege on your debt for a mere two million, would you?" Handsome Kun said incredulously. "If that's the case, then I'd be extremely honored!"

"I'll give you a good shout-out in the movie later."

"The movies produced by Qiankun Films still have an audience."

The camel was speechless; this handsome Kun was really ruthless.

"Alright, enough with the chit-chat, let's get down to business," Handsome Kun said bluntly. "I have some intelligence to share with you. A foreigner named James recently arrived in Chongqing. He's currently a senior superintendent in the police station's political department, but secretly he's a high-ranking agent for the Chongqing Telecommunications Bureau. This guy has done some pretty impressive things..."

Liang Kun recounted all of James' recent activities.

"What does James have to do with us?" Camel was very puzzled. This foreigner's life or death had nothing to do with their East Star.

"Uncle Camel, you know I hate fans who go astray the most," Handsome Kun kindly reminded him. "If I find out that anyone in your East Star has been lured away by James and gone astray, don't blame me for going on a killing spree!"

Camel sneered, "Go ahead and kill. We Dongxing don't like those who walk the line."

"Uncle Camel, you're so righteous. We're out here making money, and these drug addicts are ruining our livelihoods."

"Is this something that can be tolerated, or something that cannot be tolerated?"

"If James keeps doing this, we might as well shut down!"

Camel nodded repeatedly, while Aben, standing beside him, was dumbfounded. He nudged Camel and mouthed, "Camel, you've been led astray by Liang Kun!"

The camel was completely bewildered; he had no idea what Aben meant.

"Ah Kun, this is Ah Ben." Ah Ben saw that if he didn't interrupt, Camel would really be confused by Handsome Kun's words. "Let's be frank... Who in Dongxing are you going to attack?"

"Huh?" Camel was stunned. "Ah Kun, are you going to attack Dongxing?"

Liang Kun chuckled, his voice a deep, hoarse, husky hue: "Why would I want to take action against Dongxing?"

"Ben, we're neighbors, after all. The Crown Prince helped you a lot with the Dragon and Phoenix event, didn't he?"

"Or are you dissatisfied with your territory, or are you too greedy to even take the Crown Prince's share?"

Camel looked at Aben suspiciously. But knowing Aben as he did, Camel was sure Aben was capable of doing it.

"Why are you looking at me like that?!" These were mouthed by Ah Ben to the camel. He was almost driven mad with anger. This guy, Liang Kun, was truly shameless. His ability to distort the truth was far superior to his own!

How could someone like that be a member of Hung Hing?
If only he were a talent from Dongxing!
Unfortunately, he was the Grand Marshal of Hung Hing.

“Ah Kun, let’s not beat around the bush. Ah Luo’s attitude has been made clear: if it’s someone from Dongxing who’s gone to get drugs, he deserves to die.”

"Take Long Fei for example. He's dead, and we didn't cause any trouble for Hong An, did we?"

The camel was taken aback, and then its expression changed drastically.

Only then did he understand the meaning behind Ah Ben's words. It was clear that Liang Kun knew who in Dongxing was selling drugs and was preparing to make a move.

But this guy deliberately tied me up with his words, making it impossible for me to say anything.

insidious!

That guy is really cunning.

"Ben, look at what you're saying." Liang Kun lazily exposed his little trick. "The main force that took down Long Fei was Hong An, not Hong Xing. If you want to send troops, go ahead and fight!"

"However, it wasn't just Hong An's people who destroyed Longfei Hall. Xinji, Number Gang, Xinliansheng, Hetu... which is now Hexingsheng, and several other gangs with the character 'Zhong' in their names all sent troops."

"If you're so capable, then take down all of these clubs."

Is it meaningful to single out Hong An to make a point?

Ah Ben chuckled coldly. He had already threatened Hong An alone. So what?
"If you're so capable, then go ahead and fight," Liang Kun said lazily. "I'm just giving you a friendly reminder: Hong An might very well ask our Hung Hing for help. What can we do? We're the face of the Hung family!"

Ah Ben still sneered: "You Hung Hing will send troops?"

“I don’t care about Hung Hing affairs,” Leung Kwan said dismissively. However, he laughed and said, “I don’t know about Chiang Sang. You know he just took office and doesn’t know where his first move will be!”

Aben stopped laughing!
Threat!

This is a blatant threat!

"Do you feel like I'm threatening you?" Liang Kun seemed to read Ben's mind, seeing right through him. "Ben, you were the one who started this threat. When I retaliated, you felt uncomfortable?"

"oppressive rule?"

"You can't be so hypocritical." Camel had already realized what was going on and quickly said, "Ah Kun, stop talking nonsense. Are you really going to attack Dongxing?"

"Who told you I was going to take action against Dongxing?" Liang Kun said, feeling wronged. "I clearly received this huge piece of news and immediately shared it with you, and now you're slandering me like this?"

The camel asked, half-believing, half-doubting, "Why are you telling us this?"

"Who told you to be so famous in the underworld!" Handsome Kun sighed. "How do people in the underworld talk about you? 'Hung Hing, the tough guy; Tung Hing, the four-year-old.'"

"That's just a rumor!" the camel loudly retorted.

In reality, a gang's reputation is just that—reputation. In this world, it's all about fists. However, this is something that can't be said carelessly.

This is especially true in the current situation.

People in the underworld have a strong aversion to drug dealers. They used to be able to tolerate them, but after someone took the lead, everyone's tolerance for drug dealers plummeted.

Now, drug dealers really don't dare to speak loudly, and groups that have drug dealers need to quickly distance themselves from the issue.

Otherwise, none of your friends in the martial arts world will include you.

This is really dangerous!

Handsome Kun asked bluntly, "How many people in the underworld know that James is trying to drag people down with him? Did you two know this before?"

"If I had known, then I wouldn't have needed to give them the two million."

Camel and Aben looked at each other and smiled wryly.

"I don't know!" Camel spoke again. "I do know that Heliansheng dealt with Dapuhei and Xingsheng dealt with Baitouweng, claiming to the outside world that they fled to avoid punishment."

"But I never expected that the two of them would be dragged into this by the foreigners."

Who would dare say something like that?

After all, it involves foreigners, and they're foreigners wearing police uniforms.

This is troublesome.

If James can't handle Liansheng and Xingsheng, surely he can handle others?

Therefore, even those who already know this information will simply pretend not to hear it and let the information remain unresolved in their minds.

Liang Kun clapped his hands and said, "So, tell me, is this intelligence really worth the price?"

"Worth it!" Camel roared through gritted teeth.

Liang Kun laughed even more heartily: "That's right, I, Ah Kun, have always been honest and fair in my business dealings."

"Hey, don't say I tricked you guys."

"The name 'Four-Zai' is famous throughout Hong Kong, but I didn't come up with it."

"That's the reputation you earned yourself; no one else can claim it."

"Nonsense!" Camel roared. "How many people in Dongxing are involved in this business? Almost every one of those loyalists does it."

"They are the traitors!"

Liang Kun chuckled and said, "Uncle Camel, you're right, but the problem is..."

"They lost all their fans."

"They accepted all the business that the police were targeting."

"Can Uncle Camel be recognized?"

The camel was speechless.

Absolutely not!

Most of the gangs with the character "忠" in their names are newly established and rising to prominence. The businesses they run are those that have become popular in recent years, so they are not afraid of being targeted.

They have various ways to circumvent police targeting.

Dongxing is different; the businesses run by traditional triads are mostly traditional.

Once targeted, the losses suffered are extraordinary.

Camel and Aben exchanged a glance, both feeling helpless. That bastard Liang Kun had really hit their weak spot perfectly.

"Uncles, you should thank me a lot."

"I brought you such great news, and you don't appreciate it at all, and you even target me. It really hurts me!"

Camel and Aben kept sneering, "We're all old foxes, what are we talking about?"

"Ah Kun, what exactly did you hear about?" Camel thought to himself, becoming quite calm. "If the other party has offended you, how about I stand up for you?"

"Then there's no need." Liang Kun refused outright. He came to Shi En, how could he possibly owe someone a favor?
Liang Kun chuckled and said, "If anyone offends me, I'll just fight back. No matter who it is, I'm not afraid."

"Uncle, just cover my rear. If we really can't win, I'll call for reinforcements."

Camel readily agreed: "Okay, no matter who offended you, as long as you fight, Uncle will help."

Liang Kun rolled his eyes. "I called you uncle, and you actually answered? You're shameless."

However, for Camel, as long as the community can survive for a long time, what does shamelessness matter?
"Tell me, who exactly offended you?" Camel and Aben were very curious; there was someone in Dongxing who had offended Liang Kun.

If the offense wasn't too serious, then perhaps someone could mediate and get Leung Kwan to let the other party off the hook.

Handsome Kun is the most famous guy in the underworld, without a doubt.

His actions each time stirred up a storm in the martial arts world.

These methods are unmatched, not to mention the younger generation in the gang, even by those old foxes who have been in the underworld for decades.

People in the underworld respect Liang Kun not because of his title of Grand Marshal of Hung Hing, which is just an honorary position and not to be taken seriously.

However, once Marshal Da Lu's name is Liang Kun, its prestige immediately changes.

The Grand Marshal of Hung Hing suddenly became a figure who could stand shoulder to shoulder with Chiang Tin-yeung.

At the height of his power, there is simply no new generation in Hung Hing capable of matching him. This makes Camel and Ah Ben, the top executives of Tung Hing, very uneasy—there is a talent gap.

How to compete with Hung Hing?
He was determined to protect any guy who dared to confront Liang Kun head-on.

"The guy who offended me?" Liang Kun found it amusing, paused slightly, and asked in return, "Uncle Camel, who in Dongxing do you think could offend me? Zhuo Kele? Hua Fu? Situ or one of the Five Tigers?"

That one sentence completely broke their defenses!
Camel, rarely losing his composure, angrily retorted, "Handsome Kun, do you want to fight with Dongxing?!"

"Huh? Uncle Camel wants to have a showdown with our Mong Kok triad?" Handsome Kun was quite puzzled.

Aben was also very angry, but when the camel spoke, it really startled him.

Fight with Liang Kun?

What are you trying to do?
Ugly Kwan is not the leader of Hung Hing; he is "just" the boss of Mong Kok.

However, this Mong Kok gang leader was able to easily mobilize the surrounding gangs.

Han Bin from Kwai Tsing, Dinosaur from Tuen Mun, Kam Tze-tai from Tsim Sha Tsui, Silly Keung from Sham Shui Po, Pretty Ma from Portland Street, plus his Pretty Kwan, wow, he basically dominates the entire West Kowloon area.

And then there's the Ni family, who always let Liang Kun get away with it...

Yau Tsim Mong is said to be Leung Kwan's private territory, and no one in the underworld dares to disagree.

So here's the question: if Camel really fights with Handsome Kun, who will be the first to suffer?

There's no doubt about it, it's definitely him, Ah Ben from Tsim Sha Tsui!
Let him fight against Liang Kun?

Don't be ridiculous!

Toastmasters Coca-Cola even has its own brand ambassador, Leopard, but it hasn't even been a month yet!

Ah Ben quickly said to Liang Kun, "Mr. Li, calm down, Ah Luo was just joking."

The camel glared at Aben, thinking, "What a load of rubbish!"
However, Aben insisted that he was just joking.

The camel had no choice but to grit its teeth and admit it.

Suffocated!
"Just kidding, that would be perfect."

"I get along well with both of you, and I don't want to ruin our relationship."

"I advise you two, I, Ah Kun, don't cause trouble, but I'm not afraid of trouble. Anyone who messes with me should really be careful."

After saying that, Liang Kun hung up the phone.

The camel jumped up and shouted, "Ben, isn't this guy threatening us? He must be threatening us!"

"They're just threatening us." Ah Ben curled his lip. You weren't tough when you were on the phone earlier, so what's the point of saying this now?
“But we need to figure out why Leung Kwan suddenly sent a threat.” Ah Ben’s expression was very serious. “As far as I know, Leung Kwan never threatens others casually. His reputation in the underworld is still very good.”
