Hong Kong Film Intelligence King

Chapter 245: Fainting with force
It was another club meeting.

Jiang Tianyang watched with a smile as the group of people handed in their accounts.

While watching, she also chatted with Liang Kun:

"Ah Kun, you did a good job yesterday."

Liang Kun looked utterly helpless.
"I didn't want to make a move, but who would have thought that bastard Prince Hongtai would attack me?"

"If he doesn't die, who will?"

Jiang Tianyang nodded:

"Ah Kun, you did the right thing."

“Hong Tai went too far. What we did was entirely in accordance with the code of chivalry.”

There's a funny rule in the martial arts world: don't bring trouble upon your family.

When it comes to implementation, almost no one takes it seriously.

If we don't nip it in the bud, are we going to wait until you've grown strong enough to come back and seek revenge?
However, this is not how you can promote something.

We must uphold loyalty and righteousness, otherwise this world of martial arts will never end.

Bucky, who was listening to their conversation, felt disgusted. "Brother Kun has already sunk people to the bottom of the sea, what's the point of talking about loyalty and righteousness?"
However, it's impossible for Bucky to actually say such a thing to the two of them.

Bucky is a master of conversation; he speaks to people in a human language and to ghosts in a ghost language—he's a consummate expert.

Chiang Tin-yeung was in a good mood. Leung Kwan's series of actions had directly strengthened the various branches of Hung Hing, not just the Mong Kok branch.

Few in Hung Hing supporters of what Leung Kwan has done.

Just think about it, it's obvious. He put in the effort, and he wasn't the only one who benefited. Everyone would want to be friends with a brother like that.

Jiang Tianyang watched the actions of each leader, his smile never fading.

In fact, at every club meeting, unless it was held on short notice, the most important thing was for each branch to hand over their accounts.

Chen Yao is the gang's leader, in charge of debt collection.

The group of leaders handed over their respective club's income to Chen Yao one by one.

These things are done anonymously.

What does that mean?

Only Jiang Tianyang and Chen Yao knew the figures submitted by each branch; the others were unaware.

Of course, if other branches are missing too many, Chen Yao will point them out; that's his prerogative.

After all the bosses had paid their dues, Chen Yao's expression was a mixture of joy and worry:
“I have seen all the submissions. The submissions from Tsim Sha Tsui East, Mong Kok, Kwai Tsing, Tuen Mun, and Kowloon City far exceed the average.”

"This is even with a significant portion of them not having submitted their figures."

Why was there no intersection?
It's newly conquered territory.

"I believe that once they have digested the newly acquired territory, the amount they pay will definitely increase again."

"Everyone will earn more money."

The group of Fit people screamed loudly.

Don't assume these people are of high quality; having even a secondary school education is considered highly educated.

“However…” Chen Yao changed the subject, “where there are high ones, there are naturally low ones.”

"Brother Ji, your number is 30% less than usual."

The crowd was in an uproar.

We are all here to make a living.

It's normal for the number of submissions to vary.

However, a sudden drop of 30% is not normal.

The Crown Prince asked directly:

"Brother Ji, how come your Sai Wan profits are down by 30%?"

Bucky cursed:

"Sai Wan isn't Tsim Sha Tsui. What business is it of yours if I lose 30% here?"

The Crown Prince said calmly:
“I’m the head of Tsim Sha Tsui, and I’m responsible for your share of the profits. How dare you say it’s none of my business?”

Han Bin smiled and said:
"If that's the case, then we don't need to pay the bill."

Bucky quickly said:
"That was not what I meant."

“I accept that the amount I pay is less than the amount I receive, but what I object to is people interfering with my business policies.”

Gan Zitai snorted coldly:

"If you manage your branch well, who would have time to criticize you?"

"Are we still idle even though we don't have a branch?"

"If your income decreases, it doesn't just harm your own interests, it harms the interests of all of us."

Everyone cheered in unison.

Bucky stared at Gan Zitai in disbelief. When did this guy become so eloquent?
He doesn't know the situation.

Gan Zitai spends all his time hanging out with Liang Kun, Han Bin, Liang Ma, and others. Even the most straightforward martial artist can improve with time.

Jiang Tianyang said gently:

"Brother Ji, people have some doubts about your business. You just need to dispel their doubts!"

Bucky stammered:
"I invested this month's profits."

Gan Zitai will not let him go:
"invest?"

"Who will they invest with? What projects will they be involved in?"

Bucky roared:

"Does this even need to be regulated?"

Gan Zitai refused to budge an inch:
“My money is in your share, so it’s only natural for me to manage my own money.”

Bucky was about to speak when he suddenly sensed something was wrong. He turned around and was nearly scared out of his wits.

All the leaders, from Jiang Tianyang down, were watching him.

Bucky chuckled dryly:
"As you all know, the economy in Sai Wan is not good, and the triads need to explore other businesses, so they need to find new sources of income."

Jiang Tianyang nodded slightly:
"In that case, misappropriating profits is normal."

Bucky quickly said:
“Mr. Jiang is right, of course it’s normal.”

“If I didn’t care about Hung Hing, I would have ruined the organization.”

Jiang Tianyang nodded with a smile:

"Brother Kei is a veteran of three dynasties, and he has Hung Hing in his heart. Everyone knows that."

Before Bucky could even feel happy, he changed the subject...
"I wonder what exactly Brother Ji has invested in?"

Bucky gritted his teeth and said:
“Since the West Ring is a port, I worked with Mr. Ma and others on several projects.”

Young Kun suddenly spoke up:

"Who?"

Pakistani Khan has come down:
"Master Ma!"

A cold glint flashed in Liang Kun's eyes.

"Besides him?"

Bucky said helplessly:
"And Brother Hua too."

Liang Kun's face immediately darkened:

"Brother Ji must know what they do, right?"

Bucky chuckled dryly:
"We're all just people from the martial arts world, there's no need to pry so deeply, is there?"

Seeing that Liang Kun's expression was off, he immediately spoke honestly.

"Know!"

Bucky dares to put on airs with anyone, but he wouldn't dare to put on airs with Handsome Kun.

Last month, he lost his mind and started putting on airs with Leung Kwan, only to be confronted by Leung Kwan and left him questioning his existence.

This month has been even worse. I don't know what happened, but the clubs he used to be close to are no longer associating with him.

Don't ask, the answer is that it has nothing to do with Leung Kwan!
If Bucky still doesn't know what's going on, he's been in the wrong all along.

But this matter cannot be discussed in the Hall of Loyalty and Righteousness.

What do you say?
Oh, you said a few words to Liang Kun at the Zhongyi Hall gathering, and he retaliated. You wouldn't let him?
You're allowed to insult me, but I'm not allowed to retaliate?
There is no such thing.

The main reason is the tragic fate of Little B. If it were Ugly Kun fighting him in the Gathering of Righteousness Hall, he couldn't guarantee that his men could win.

Of course, the most important thing is that fighting in the Hall of Righteousness costs money.

One hundred thousand per aircraft... Ouch!
If we lose the fight, we'll have to pay for medicine, which is more than just a financial burden.

fight?

Anyone who wants to fight can go ahead and fight!

Anyway, he doesn't want to fight!
Jiang Tianyang asked:
"Ah Kun, is there something wrong with these two people?"

Liang Kun shrugs:

"There's nothing seriously wrong with him. That Brother Hua is an arms smuggler. He's in the same line of work as Benny, but he's not as big as Benny. He specializes in selling weapons to Southeast Asia."

Han Bin shouted:
"Ah Kun, don't slander me. I don't do that stuff anymore."

He is indeed no longer involved in arms smuggling, because of the professor's case, several arms smuggling dealers in Hong Kong have been brought down.

This includes the Shanhai Group—the same Shanhai Group that followed Johnny Wang's lead.

Han Bin was terrified when he received the news.

That's the Shanhai Group, the Shanhai Group that even Johnny Wang can't forget.

Planted silently and without fanfare.

Han Bin didn't know the reason, but he knew it was very likely a chain reaction triggered by the professor's case from years ago.

You might end up in the police station's sights yourself.

Therefore, Wang Dao suggested that he barter with his hometown, which is why he acted so quickly.

Jiang Tianyang seemed to be deep in thought:
"Brother Hua is in the arms export business, so it doesn't have a big impact on our business."

Bucky immediately shouted:
"Mr. Jiang is right!"

“I only provide the dock; what Brother Hua does is none of my business.”

Liang Kun sneered:
"If you and Brother Hua go into business together and something goes wrong, won't people think you weren't the one who did it?"

Bucky stubbornly insisted:
"I have a clear conscience!"

Everyone turned to look.

How shameless must someone be to say something like that?

Can you really wash your hands of the matter by simply saying you have a clear conscience?
Even the foreign governor isn't as good at shifting blame as you.

Jiang Tianyang looked at Liang Kun with a puzzled expression and said:
"Ah Kun, have you received some news?"

Handsome Kun glared fiercely at Bucky:
"I had received some information before, but I thought it had nothing to do with us."

"It seems there is a connection."

Bucky shouted:
"Ah Kun, don't you dare slander me."

Brother Xin said angrily:

"Bucky, shut up. Since Ah Kun took over, everything he's done has been for the good of our gang."

"Others are investing too, and Ah Kun doesn't say anything against it."

"Is he targeting you?" Bucky was choked half to death, wanting to say "Handsome Kun is targeting me" but he didn't dare.

Those who live in the underworld are the most honest; they're second to none when it comes to kicking someone when they're down, whether they're in power or not.

In Hung Hing, Liang Kun's status was almost the same as Jiang Tianyang's. If people found out that Liang Kun was targeting him, it wouldn't just be Liang Kun alone; the entire Hung Hing might reject him.

Jiang Tianyang said at the opportune moment:

"Ah Kun, what intelligence have you obtained?"

Liang Kun shrugs:

"This is a bit like showing off one's limited skills before an expert, since we all know that Mr. Jiang is the most well-informed person in Southeast Asia."

Jiang Tianyang laughed heartily:
“I haven’t paid attention to anything related to Siam for a long time.”

Handsome Kun sighed:

"A murder occurred in Luzon yesterday, and four people died."

Bucky was baffled:

So what?

"When in Southeast Asia does someone not die?"

"Annam is still at war with the mainland!"

Liang Kun said calmly:
"The arms deal was a double-cross, and Luzon has reported it to Interpol."

"Rumors have spread throughout the martial arts world that this ship... has docked at the Sai Wan Wharf."

Bucky chuckled dryly:
"Ah Kun, don't scare me. Who can guarantee that it's Brother Hua's boat?"

Liang Kun glared at him:
"If Brother Hua had a boat, would he cooperate with you?"

"He stole that boat!"

Bucky was horrified:

"what?"

Han Bin was taken aback:
"That ship was stolen by Brother Hua. Besides my company, only one other company has the capability to transport weapons by ship."

Liang Kun stopped Han Bin from saying it.
"This was caused by Brother Hua, we don't need to delve into it."

Bucky was covered in sweat; he was scared!

I never imagined that Brother Hua would pull such a stunt behind my back.

When the owner comes knocking, they won't care whether you knew beforehand or not; they'll take care of him too.

Although Hanbin did not say the other person's name, Bucky already knew who the other person was.

We're all in this business, how could we not know each other's names?
Isn't that Cao Ya from Yiqun?
This man is not one to be trifled with. As a member of the once most powerful Chaozhou gang, Lei Luo enjoyed immense prestige during his time.

Lei Luo fled, and Yi Qun also transformed, no longer dealing with drugs, and started a "legitimate" business.

If people find out that the missing ship is docked at their pier, they might be implicated!

Pakistan is not afraid.

Handsome Kun said coldly:
"I don't care about anything else, but are you trying to get yourself killed by cooperating with Master Ma?"

Bucky chuckled dryly:
"I'm just providing him with the dock..."

Liang Kun looked at Bucky as if he were looking at a dead man.

Bucky was so frightened that his heart almost stopped.

Jiang Tianyang asked, puzzled:

"Ah Kun, what kind of business does this Master Ma do?"

Handsome Kun sighed:

“Mr. Jiang, you’ve just returned to Hong Kong, so it’s normal that you’re not familiar with some of the underworld figures.”

"This Master Ma's main area of ​​activity is the outlying islands."

"However, don't assume he's doing any legitimate business on the island."

"This guy is the biggest drug dealer around the island!"

Jiang Tianyang stood up abruptly:

"Brother Ji, is what Ah Kun said true?"

Bucky said guiltily:
"I'm not a fan; I'm just providing a channel for Mr. Ma."

Jiang Tianyang's voice suddenly rose:
"That's all?!"

"How many people from our Hung Hing have died because of this thing?"

"Brother B, my dear brother!"

"Who didn't die because of this stuff?"

"You've gotten involved with this stuff too?"

"Aren't you afraid Ah Kun will kill you?!"

Handsome Kun bluntly said:
"If Brother Ji gets involved with drugs, don't blame me."

Bucky was terrified and shouted:

"It's a misunderstanding, it really is a misunderstanding!"

"I really just provided them with a dock."

"I didn't get involved in their affairs!"

Bucky was nearly scared to death.

He went crazy and started selling cigarettes.

Liang Kun is a madman; he'll kill anyone who loses a fan.

Mong Kok was originally the territory of the Ni family, and this madman actually ordered that the Ni family members not be allowed to leave.

The most terrifying thing is that the Ni family actually believed it!

Bucky didn't want to be targeted by Liang Kun; that would be tantamount to being dead!
"I was thinking that this way I could earn more money."

"One was involved in drug trafficking, and the other in arms smuggling."

"Normally, they wouldn't dare let them dock."

"Of course, this is risky."

"But after thinking about it, there's actually no risk involved. I'm just running the dock and providing them with a dock."

"...I really just wanted to earn a little more money!"

Liang Kun said to Jiang Tianyang:
"Mr. Jiang, should I call Ah Zhong?"

Bucky asked, looking completely bewildered:
Who is Ah Zhong?

Liang Kun shrugs:

"Chen Guozhong!"

Bucky was so startled he almost fell off his stool.

"Lang Kun, are you wearing red shoes?"

Young Kun started cursing:

"Am I wearing red shoes?"

"Do you know that the underwater world of the club is in my hands?"

"If I were wearing red shoes, I would have dragged you all over from head to toe in Sai Wan long ago."

"You bastard, you'll get your hands on anything, huh?"

“Look, Binny doesn’t even touch weapons anymore.”

"You're really pushing your luck to touch that thing!"

“Yi Qun has already distanced himself from the Chaozhou gang, and you’re actually trying to get close to Master Ma.”

"Bucky, you want to risk your life? I'll grant your wish."

"So you won't drag our entire club down with you!"

The group of leaders glared at Bucky, who was sweating profusely.

Jiang Tianyang sighed:
"The claim that Ah Kun is wearing red shoes is utter nonsense."

"Brother Ji, you have to understand, we're in this business, we need to use this place."

Jiang Tianyang pointed to his head.

"A gangster who doesn't use his brain will be a petty thug his whole life!"

Young Kun was furious:

“Jiang Sheng, before the Red Flower Pavilion and all the patriarchs, I have killed Baji!”

Bucky was terrified and could no longer sit still. He quickly said:
"Jiang Sheng, save me!"

Jiang Tianyang hesitated and said:

"Ah Kun, about Brother Ji's matter... shouldn't we discuss it again?"

Handsome Kun said coldly:
"These days, this powder stuff is like a hand grenade. It looks nice, but you never know when it might explode."

"If we don't deal with this seriously, and we get labeled as 'fans,' how will Hung Hing continue doing business?"

"Don't forget that a while back, they were watching our club for four whole days!"

"Back then, nobody could do business!"

Jiang Tianyang hesitated immediately.

The group of guys who wanted to plead for Bucky immediately shut up.

Ultimately, business is still the most important thing.

If what Liang Kun said really comes true, they're doomed.

James's previous order for the police to sweep through Hung Hing's shady businesses really left a deep impression on everyone in Hung Hing, and some of the branches are still suffering from the damage.

For example, the West Ring Road in Pakistan.

In fact, this incident really affected Bucky's business dealings with Master Ma and Brother Hua.

Bucky shouted:
“Ah Kun, Brother Kun, I really just provided them with a port, and I didn’t get involved in their affairs at all.”

Liang Kun said sternly:
"Does the police care whether you got involved in their business or not?"

"The police station knows that you provided them with a port."

"Brother Ji, tell me, didn't those two give you any money?"

Bucky had nothing to say.

If the two of them didn't give him a share of the money, would he be crazy enough to provide them with a port?
Isn't that just being a jerk?

Everyone glared at Bucky with fury; this guy had no sense of proportion at all.

Bucky, being a seasoned pro, quickly begged for mercy upon seeing the looks in everyone's eyes:
"Mr. Jiang, please, for the sake of being a veteran of three dynasties, save me!"

"Brother Long, Brother Xin, we've been brothers for so many years, please put in a good word for me!"

Jiang Tianyang, Brother Long, and Brother Xin exchanged glances, looking at each other intently.

Finally, Jiang Tianyang gave Brother Long a wink, and the latter reluctantly said to Liang Kun:

"Ah Kun, Brother Ji is a veteran of three dynasties, I don't think he would get involved in this stuff. Why don't we investigate and then make a decision?"

Jiang Tianyang quickly said:

"Yes, yes, Ah Kun, he's a veteran of three reigns after all..."
