Chapter 271 Managing Clubs Using Scientific Methods
Wang Dao hung up the phone and tossed it to Jimmy.

"I don't answer any calls except from my wife and family members."

Jimmy blushed and agreed.

God knows what his reaction was when he read the newspaper today!
He was glad he had agreed to be Wang Dao's younger brother; otherwise, he wouldn't be on this stage today.

Within just half an hour, Wang Dao's phone was ringing off the hook.

There were all sorts of people, and Jimmy was overwhelmed with them. Even the Financial Secretary was inviting Wang Dao to attend a consultation meeting.

Wang Dao turned to Jiang Tianyang and said:
"I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang, I've been too busy today."

Jiang Tianyang was very flustered:
"understand."

Liang Kun hung up the phone and tossed it to Li Jie:

"Don't give me a call unless you think it's necessary."

Li Jie said expressionlessly:
"Roger that, boss!"

Leung Kwan invited Chiang Tin-yeung to sit down:

"Mr. Jiang, I originally wanted to have a long talk with you, but it seems I don't have the time."

Li Jie said expressionlessly:
"Old Ding, you're going to HSBC in half an hour for a meeting with Mrs. Shen to discuss the takeover of various foreign firms. You'll likely be attending a luncheon at HSBC..."

Liang Kun interrupted him:

"Ok, I see."

Li Jie nodded to everyone, pulled Jimmy along, and left the office to the four of them.

Handsome Kun sighed:

"If it weren't for A-Jie's help, I would have been in real pain."

Wang Dao shrugged:

"Boss, Ah Jie is my younger brother."

Liang Kun said directly:
"I have requisitioned it."

"I'll have your sister-in-law make you a nice soup later."

Wang Dao was taken aback and said:
"Does Sister-in-law have time?"

Liang Kun covered his forehead and said:
"I might have time today, maybe."

Wang Dao rolled his eyes.

Liang Kun said to Jiang Tianyang seriously:
"Mr. Jiang, I'm very busy here, so let's get straight to the point."

"I will not withdraw from the affairs of Hung Hing, and will continue to hold the title of Grand Marshal."

Jiang Tianyang was overjoyed:
"Thank you, Mr. Li."

Handsome Kun laughed:

"I came from a club, and that can't be changed."

“I’m just very busy with my business right now, so I might not be able to take care of Hung Hing.”

Jiang Tianyang laughed and said:
"It's alright, just send a representative to Hung Hing."

Liang Kun nodded slightly:

"Thank you for your understanding, Mr. Jiang."

Jiang Tianyang was flattered and overwhelmed:
"I should thank Mr. Li. If the people in the underworld knew that Mr. Li was backing Hung Hing, then Hung Hing would truly be impregnable."

Handsome Kun laughed heartily:

"Mr. Jiang, you don't need to be so polite."

"Regarding the club matter, I think it's better to let Ado explain it to you."

"By the way, everything Ado says represents my meaning."

Jiang Tianyang nodded repeatedly.

Little did he know that Wang Dao's first words would leave Jiang Tianyang stunned:

"I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang, I am not Brother Kun's representative in Hung Hing."

Jiang Tianyang was at a loss when he heard Liang Kun say:

“Mr. Jiang, Adao is the core of our group. Even I have to listen to what he says.”

Jiang Tianyang's pupils almost popped out.

This also means that within Liang Kun's team, the person in charge truly holds the key.

Wang Dao smiled and said:
“Mr. Jiang, we’ve talked things over before, but now let’s go over things seriously.”

Jiang Tianyang dared not be negligent:

"Brother Dao, please speak."

Wang Dao laughed and said:

"The underworld is about to undergo a major transformation. The traditional management model is no longer suitable for the development of the organization and will soon be eliminated."

Jiang Tianyang was taken aback and fell into deep thought.

Chen Yao asked, puzzled:
"Brother Dao, isn't this a bit too much?"

“Our Hung Hing is developing very quickly by using the current management model.”

Wang Dao did not deny it:
"It has developed rapidly, but there is a prerequisite: the Governor's Mansion has no intention of dealing with the gangs."

Chen Yao retorted:
"If they really didn't want to deal with the gangs, why would they have set up the Three Flags Office?"

Wang Dao laughed:

“If we really wanted to deal with this, there wouldn’t be so many gangs.”

Chen Yao disagreed:

"I don't think they have any way to handle it."

“Hong Kong’s prisons can only hold 30,000 people when they are full, but the total number of people in Hong Kong’s triads is far more than three million.”

Where will he put it?

Wang Dao shrugged:

"That's because the foreigners are incompetent!"

"If I were doing this, it wouldn't be so complicated."

Chen Yao was dumbfounded. Wasn't this a huge boast?

Liang Kun asked curiously:
"Ah Dao, everyone knows you're quick-witted. If you were a cop, how would you get things done?"

The Way of the King:

"is it hard?"

Liang Kun speaks the truth:

"It's difficult, at least I can't think of any."

Chen Yao was very dissatisfied, and he also couldn't think of a solution.

Jiang Tianyang naturally couldn't have imagined it either, but he had a vague feeling that Wang Dao would come up with a solution.

Wang Dao sighed:

"That's why foreigners are incompetent."

"If it were me, I would send every single one of the gangsters, those big shots and their uncles, to Stanley."

How many people will there be?

"At most three hundred to a thousand people, right?"

Chen Yao exclaimed:
"The martial world will surely be thrown into chaos!"

Wang Dao sneered:
"The martial world is in chaos?"

"How is that possible?"

“When the police came to the door, they clearly told the leaders of each gang that they no longer had a superior, and that their territory had become their own.”

"They don't need to pay tribute, or rather, they don't need to give the amount they used to give to Grandpa to the foreigners."

"These people will be directly ruled by the foreigners from now on."

"From now on, if anything happens on your turf, we won't come looking for anyone else, we'll only come looking for you!"

Chen Yao frowned and was speechless for a moment. It seemed like this method could actually work.

However, he frowned and said:

"Aren't there always some loyal gangsters in the underworld? But things still get chaotic, don't they?"

Wang Dao nodded slightly.

"You're right. There are ungrateful people in this world, but there are also loyal people."

"He's loyal and wants to avenge the boss?"

"Easy, just arrest him and throw him in Stanley to keep his boss company."

"Just divide his territory among his men."

"If this man is loyal, I don't believe his subordinates are equally loyal."

"As long as we push it down layer by layer, are we afraid of not finding people to cooperate?"

Chen Yao stared wide-eyed at Wang Dao, looking at him as if he were a god:

"Brother Dao, what were you thinking? How could you come up with such a method?"

The kingly way disagrees:

"This is not a new method."

"Our ancestors were doing this two thousand years ago."

The three people inside the room were stunned:

Two thousand years ago?

The Way of Kings is straightforward:
"During the reign of Emperor Wu of Han, there were rebellions in vassal states, which could not be stopped despite repeated attempts."

"A wise man recommended a method called the Order of Grace."

"Simply put, a big boss must divide his territory among his younger brothers, and the younger brothers then divide it among their younger brothers."

"Within a few generations, such a huge power will become an insignificant little power, making it impossible for them to rebel."

He pointed to his head.
"A brain is a wonderful thing; you should use it often!"

"If you're going to be out in the world, you need to study more."

Chen Yao was stunned:

"The Edict of Grace can be used like this?"

Wang Dao shrugged:

"If foreigners are ruthless, they can wipe out any kind of gang."

"However, they don't have that intention."

"If they can't even clean up the criminal organizations in their own country, how can they possibly clean up ours?"

"What rubbish!"

Chen Yao asked, puzzled:
"Since the Westerners' governance is so terrible, is it necessary for us to change it?"

Wang Dao smiled and said:
"Yes."

"A club is a club, always remember that."

"The association and the company have no direct connection, at least not overtly."

"Of course, a triad needs a leader, but that leader must be someone you, Mr. Jiang, trust."

"That way, we can select you."

"You've moved from the forefront to behind the scenes; many former high-ranking members of the triad have also moved from the forefront to behind the scenes."

"To give an analogy, student organizations are like the marketing department of a regular company. If they do well, then give them a little reward, a little candy, a little treat."

"If the performance is not good, replace the person immediately."

Chen Yao said, his mouth dry:
"So that's what they mean by 'letting go completely'?"

Wang Dao shook his finger:
"That's not just about letting go."

"As long as you grasp these two points, you won't lose your club no matter what."

"One is financial power, and the other is personnel power."

"Promotions within the organization are decided by the company, but the order to announce a promotion can be given by any newly hired junior employee." "The organization's financial lifeline is in their hands..."

"Can this gang really turn things upside down?"

"The advantage of doing this is that each of the real leaders of Hung Hing has a legitimate profession and a legitimate business, and the affairs of the triad will never involve you."

“We fully enjoy the enormous benefits that the organization brings—dirty money, solving some minor problems, or obtaining some legal income—without having to worry about the bad things the organization does.”

"At that point, the club will become a real rag!"

Wang Dao grinned:
"If someone in the gang gets into trouble, just throw them out to settle things."

"Just turn around and appoint a new, responsible person."

"It's just a matter of issuing an order."

The three of them looked at each other, feeling a chill run down their spines, speechless with disbelief.

It's still Young Kun who dares to speak out:
"Ado, you're too insidious!"

The Way of the King is humiliated:
"What kind of insidiousness is this?"

"This is a scientific way to manage the association and minimize risks."

"Those of us who are out in the world naturally face enormous dangers."

“Every day, there are reckless gangsters who want to kill a gangster boss and take over.”

He pointed to the three of them.

"Compared to you all, I am the safest."

“You are all well-known figures in the underworld.”

"Jiang Sheng needs no introduction, he's the leader of Hung Hing."

"No need to say anything more about the boss, he's the Grand Marshal of Hung Hing."

"Ah Yao doesn't need to say anything, he's the brains of Hung Hing."

"I'm just a nobody."

"I dared to go out alone on the street before, would you dare?"

His words silenced everyone.

Chen Yao couldn't help but ask:
"Why before?"

Wang Dao sighed heavily:

"My picture is all over the front page of the media today. I won't dare to go out alone anymore."

Chen Yao felt even worse.

Jiang Tianyang clapped his hands heavily:

"Brother Dao is absolutely right. Reform is urgently needed."

Wang Dao gives a thumbs up:
"Jiang Sheng is decisive."

Jiang Tianyang followed suit and said:

"Brother Kun and Brother Dao, I wonder if they could invest in Kowloon Motor Bus?"

Wang Dao readily agreed:
"That was a project I created, so of course I support it."

"However, there are some things that need to be made clear beforehand."

"The shareholding ratio and capital injection ratio of each branch must be documented in legal documents, clearly defining the rights and obligations of individuals."

Jiang Tianyang readily agreed:

"no problem!"

Wang Dao clapped his hands and said:
"That's no problem."

"Brother Kun, write the check!"

Handsome Kun frowned and said:
"Why am I driving?"

Wang Dao countered with a question:
"Am I supposed to be the chairman?"

Jiang Tianyang chuckled:
"Neither of you can be the chairman."

Liang Kun took out his checkbook and wrote a check for forty million.
"Mr. Jiang, I'll have Bozi contact you later."

Jiang Tianyang was overjoyed:
"If my sister-in-law becomes the chairperson, I will definitely do my best to assist her."

Liang Kun speaks the truth:

“Bozi has a lot to learn and many positions to hold, so she probably won’t have time to seriously manage Kowloon Motor Bus. The management of the company will still have to rely on Mr. Chiang.”

Jiang Tianyang's smile became even more gentle:
"Don't worry, Brother Kun, I will do my best for Kowloon Motor Bus."

Wang Dao shrugged:

"There are many businesses that can be done within the community, not just large projects like Kowloon Motor Bus. Many seemingly insignificant small projects contain huge business opportunities..."

bang bang.

There was a knock on the door.

Li Jie entered expressionlessly and said:

"Old Ding, time's up!"

"It's time for us to go."

Liang Kun was dumbfounded:

"Is it time already?"

Jiang Tianyang immediately stood up:
"Brother Kun, I'm sorry to bother you today."

Liang Kun shook hands with him and said:
"Mr. Jiang, let's talk in detail another day."

He bid farewell to the two men and hurriedly left with Wang Dao, Li Jie, and Jimmy.

Chen Yao breathed a sigh of relief and said happily:

"Mr. Jiang, Brother Kun still values ​​brotherhood and loyalty."

"Today was too rushed, let's visit Brother Kun another day."

Jiang Tianyang corrected his form of address:
"From now on, call me Mr. Li."

Chen Yao nodded in agreement.

Jiang Tianyang sighed:
"We should be grateful that Mr. Li was able to see us today. Who knows when we'll see him again?"

Chen Yao's mouth dropped open:
"No way!"

Jiang Tianyang sighed:
"Won't?!"

"How could it not be possible?"

"Let me tell you honestly, when Mr. Li gets busy, it's not easy for even people in the company to see him."

"Wang Sheng is the same way."

Chen Yao was disheartened. Everyone was a nobody before, so why did you make such a glamorous turnaround?

That's ridiculous!

Jiang Tianyang laughed again:

"However, at least we are still lucky."

Chen Yao asked, puzzled:
"what do you mean?"

Jiang Tianyang laughed and said:
“The chairman of Kowloon Motor Bus is Mr. Li’s wife. We can’t go down Mr. Li’s route, but we can go down Mrs. Li’s route.”

"If we put in the effort, we might be able to get the woman a permanent position at Kowloon Motor Bus."

"Then our wealth and prosperity for life is assured!"

Chen Yao couldn't help but give a thumbs up:

"Brilliant, Mr. Jiang!"

Jiang Tianyang grinned:
"They're just trying every possible way to survive!"

Chen Yao couldn't wait any longer:
"Mr. Jiang, what are we waiting for?"

"Let's hurry back and study it."

Jiang Tianyang smiled and waved his hand:

"Not urgent!"

"Do you have Binny's phone number? I'd like to visit Binny."

Chen Yao quickly dialed the phone and handed it to Jiang Tianyang.
"Mr. Han, are you free? I'd like to pay you a visit... Okay, see you in a bit."

Jiang Tiansheng hung up the phone and said to Chen Yao:

"Let's go, we're going to Kwai Tsing. Binney gave us an hour."

Chen Yao was dumbfounded:

"Binny's this busy too?"

Jiang Tianyang, however, thought it was normal:

“Binny was previously recognized as the next leader of Hetu.”

Chen Yao tried hard to suppress his laughter:
"You can't say that to Benny. Those old foxes from Hetu have bullied Benny terribly."

Jiang Tianyang laughed and said:
"The more smug they were then, the more they regret it now."

“But Benny has a big mind; he remembers everyone.”

Chen Yao almost burst out laughing!
Such a grand vision?
When the two arrived in Kwai Tsing, Han Bin was on the phone:
"I have guests here, let's talk another day!"

He tossed the phone to Van.
"Honey, unless it's Ah Kun or the others calling, don't answer."

Van nodded.

Han Bin said to the two of them:

"Your call came at just the right time. We were just about to go to Wharf Holdings to take a look."

"Mr. Jiang, what can I do for you?"

Jiang Tianyang spoke the truth:
"The main issues have already been resolved with Brother Kun. I'm here to make my presence felt more."

Han Bin was taken aback, and Jiang Tianyang said seriously:
"I really mean it."

Han Bin sighed:

"It can't be that bad, can it?"

Jiang Tianyang sighed:
"You really can't predict a person's fate. When you were invited by Brother Kun, your situation wasn't necessarily that good."

"But in just three short months, the carp transformed into a dragon and soared into the sky."

Han Bin poured tea for the two of them:

"I was lucky enough to meet Brother Kun and Brother Dao."

Jiang Tianyang sighed:
"I wish I had talked to Brother Kun more. It's a pity I missed out on a chance to make a fortune."

He went along with it,

"Actually, there's something else I wanted to ask you this time."

Han Bin laughed and said:

"Please speak freely, Mr. Jiang."

Jiang Tianyang pondered for a moment and said:

"Brother Kun said that Brother Dao is the core of your group... How should we deal with this?"

Han Bin asked, puzzled:
"What do you mean, how should we treat it?"

"Our core member has always been Brother Dao."

Jiang Tianyang's mouth dropped open:

"what?!"

Han Bin explained:
"Brother Dao is the brains. Whether it's the gang or the company, the decisions he makes always turn out to be correct."

"Brother Kun should simply step down and let Brother Dao take over."

"Our core is clear: it's Brother Dao."

"Of course, Brother Kun is the big boss, so we will listen to what he says, but the one who really makes the decisions is Brother Dao."

Jiang Tianyang sighed:
"Kun is amazing!"
