Living in the Hong Kong Film World

Chapter 6 Meeting Big Brother Cheng

Song Zihao froze for a moment, reached out to shake his hand, and looked at Mark.

Immediately behind Tan Cheng, someone brought him a chair and asked him to sit down.

"I think we were good brothers back then." Tan Cheng said to everyone with a smile.

He grabbed Mark's hand and asked affectionately, "Brother Mark, do you think so?"

With one hand held by him and a cigarette in the other, Mark lowered his head and bit the wine glass with his mouth, drank the wine in one gulp, pulled his hand out of his hand without showing a trace, caught the glass, and put it down. on the desktop.

Tan Cheng didn't care, but turned to look at Song Zihao, and said with a smile, "Brother Hao, if you didn't take care of me, I wouldn't be where I am today!"

Song Zihao's smile was a bit complicated, and he patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't be stupid, your achievements today are due to your own hard work."

Tan Cheng smiled and said modestly, "What skills do I have? It's all because Brother Mark gave way to me."

He also patted Mark on the shoulder and said, "Brother Mark, if you need my help in the future, just ask me."

Mark pushed his hand away with a smile, picked up the bottle, and said, "Stop talking nonsense, come and drink."

"You take good care of your brother, don't you?" Song Zihao's words were stinging.

"Come on! Cheers!" Brother Mark suddenly leaned back, put his lame foot on the table, picked up the wine glass, and said to Song Zihao and Tan Cheng, "This glass is for my feet."

As he spoke, he poured a glass of wine onto his lap, then put the glass upside down on the table, spread his hands and smiled: "Happy?"

Tan Cheng stared at him, the smile on his face disappeared.

Mark didn't care, he just took his foot off the table.

After a while, Tan Cheng suddenly smiled, turned his head to look at Song Zihao, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Brother Hao, come and see me when you are free, we have a lot to talk about."

Song Zihao shook his head: "I'm not interested."

Tan Cheng looked at him and smiled firmly: "You will be interested."

"I'll go first!" Tan Cheng stood up, and he said this for others to hear.

Before leaving, he casually glanced at Feinan.

As soon as Tan Cheng left, Song Zijie at the bar came over with big strides.

"Song Zihao!"

He stood in front of Song Zihao.

Brother Hao looked at him in astonishment.

"Get out with me."

Song Zijie said with a blank face.

Song Zihao was dragged by him, and Brother Mark followed him out.

Feinan was in the crowd, but quietly left the nightclub through the door.

When he came outside the bar, Feinan saw Tan Cheng's car waiting on the side of the road.

Stepping to the front of the car, the tall man next to Tan Cheng was standing at the back door. He didn't say anything, but opened the door for Fei Nan.

He lowered his head and got into the car, and Feinan sat opposite Tan Cheng.

Tan Cheng has trimmed a cigar and handed it to him.

Feinan glanced at his hand, reached out for a match, lit one, put it on the stump of the cigar, and toasted it slowly.

Seeing his movements, Tan Cheng's eyes moved slightly, but he didn't say anything. He just asked slowly, "A'nan, right? I heard that you and Song Zihao have gotten closer recently?"

Feinan was not surprised. Song Zihao was Tan Cheng's confidant, and of course he would send someone to watch him, knowing that he was normal.

"You're a smart man, you just need a chance." Tan Cheng stared at him and said, "I'll give you a chance, do things with me, and I'll protect your prosperity and wealth."

Feinan took a sip of the cigar and slowly exhaled the smoke: "This cigar is fine, very mellow, and it's not bad to try something new once in a while."

Afterwards, he put the cigar next to the ashtray and said, "I still get along better with Brother Hao."

Tan Cheng took out another cigar, trimmed it, and said, "Brother Hao is loyal and affectionate, so he is really suitable to be a friend."

"But it's not suitable to be a big brother." Tan Cheng raised his eyes sharply: "You follow Song Zihao because you just want to wait for him to make a comeback, but I can tell you that even if Song Zihao returns to the company, he can't beat me."

After lighting the cigar, the smoke blocked Tan Cheng's face, and even his voice became hazy: "I believe you should know who you are more promising without me telling you."

Feinan didn't answer. He looked at Tan Cheng and asked curiously, "Brother Cheng, can you tell me why you betrayed Brother Hao?"

Tan Cheng's eyes turned cold: "You know a lot."

"It's not a secret." Feinan smiled. He was really curious why Xiao Ma didn't choose to expose Tan Cheng, but swallowed his anger.

"It's very simple." Tan Cheng's eyes became extremely sharp in an instant: "Because the capable go up! The mediocre go down!"

"Song Zihao even told you about me, and he must have told you what kind of business we are in. Hengda's production of counterfeit banknotes is world-leading, but during the years when Song Zihao was in office, the annual business scale was only Tens of millions, why?"

"Which big brother have you ever seen deliver the goods in person? Just a few million goods, I don't mind if he doesn't worry, I can let Mark go, but he has to escort every order by himself, what is this? The whole company Is he the only one who can deliver? Or does he want to take customer resources into his own hands?"

"And that Mark, if he came back to me at that time, I would have reused him, but what did he do? Single-handedly killed that man named Wang, how majestic? It ended up with my own leg."

"If you don't know how to use the company's resources, but only know how to be brave, this kind of person is a reckless man."

Tan Cheng snorted and said, "You saw it in there just now. I called him Brother Mark in front of so many people. How did he react? I didn't kill him in front of my brothers. Give Song Zihao some face!"

After a pause, his tone became more relaxed: "In this line of work, if you are not as ruthless as others, you will suffer. Going to jail is a trivial matter, and you might even die. Even if Song Zihao is out of loyalty and leaves the risk to himself, In doing so, his actions are also dragging down the company."

Tan Cheng sat up straight, and said in a deep voice: "In the past three years, under my management, the company's business scale has tripled. Our products are not only sold here in Southeast Asia, but also sold to Europe, the United States, and only counterfeit banknotes. The business scale of this area is more than [-] million! I also personally re-opened the white powder purchase channel in the Golden Triangle area. Has Song Zihao ever done these things? I’m afraid he can’t even think about it?”

Feinan's face was numb, but his heart was overwhelmed. He didn't expect that the reason why Tan Cheng betrayed Song Zihao was because he was too loyal.

After flicking the cigarette ash, Tan Cheng leaned back on the seat, exuding a strong and confident aura. Even Feinan couldn't help feeling that he was indeed a born hero.

"Actually, I'm not interested in the position of big brother."

Tan Cheng suddenly smiled and said: "The purpose of my business is to make money. It doesn't matter to me whether I am a big brother or not. I am not afraid to tell you that with my current resources, if I want to stand on my own, there is no one in the company. can stop me."

"It's just that I don't want to be so high-profile. You can tell Song Zihao when you go back. I am willing to help him return to the company. He will still be the big brother. I can return the counterfeit money business to them. I only do my white powder business. If you want, You can follow me, I am not like Song Zihao, I can trust my subordinates, as long as you dare to do it, you can choose any country in the Asian region."

This time, even Feinan couldn't help being moved.

It is courage to advance bravely in the rapids, and it is courageous to retreat bravely in the rapids. Tan Cheng is a real villain, he is only interested in profit, and he does not hide it at all.

But he laid out the conditions one by one in this way, which gave Feinan a very reliable feeling.

Even if he was in business, he must be a very good businessman, Feinan couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

If he didn't know his ending, Feinan was really ready to agree to him.

But who made your life bad?There is no protagonist halo!

Feinan shook his head lightly.

Tan Cheng's eyes turned cold, and his smile disappeared instantly.

"Brother Cheng, you think highly of me." Feinan said with a smile, "I'm timid and really not suitable for this line of work. I only know Brother Hao because we both work in taxi companies. I just want to be honest. Work, just begging for food."

"Work honestly?" Tan Cheng snorted: "Work honestly, and you can only live like a dog in Xianggang. They are all dogs. Why don't you come and be a dog for me?"

"Brother Cheng, stop joking." Feinan said helplessly, "You have so many brothers under your command, all of them are better at fighting than me, and have more knowledge than me. Wouldn't it be embarrassing for me to follow you?"

Feinan felt a little regretful, why did he come to provoke Tan Cheng?

He took it for granted that Tan Cheng was much more difficult to deal with than he expected.

Tan Cheng looked at him and suddenly smiled.

"You have a big appetite!"

"I like ambitious people." Tan Cheng leaned back on the chair: "I'll give you three days to think about it. You are smart and will know how to choose."

"Let's go, Brother Cheng."

Feinan got out of the car with a sigh of relief, and picked up his unfinished cigar and put it in his mouth.

Good stuff, don't waste it.

By the way, it also leaves an impression in Tan Cheng's mind that he is greedy for money, loves to take advantage of petty advantages, and is worthless.

No way, he doesn't have the strength to be tough with Tan Cheng now, self-defilement is also self-protection!

Walking to the entrance of the nightclub, Feinan was bumped by Song Zijie who came out of the back alleyway.

Song Zijie's eyes were red, and he left in a hurry without looking back.

Feinan stood at the entrance of the alleyway and looked over. Song Zihao was leaning against the wall in silence, and Mark was beside him.

"Brother Hao." Feinan walked over.

"Why did you come out?" Song Zihao's eyes were also a little red.

Feinan knew that he and Song Zijie had just had a dispute here.

"Brother Hao, I just met Tan Cheng."

After repeating what Tan Cheng said in the car, Song Zihao was silent for a while before saying, "I see, you should never see him again. He has no bottom line, so don't get too close to him."

Mark on the side was obviously moved, he asked Song Zihao: "Brother Hao, what if what Ah Cheng said is true?"

Song Zihao shook his head and said, "When I was released from prison, Superintendent Wu from Taiwan picked me up. The Interpol has already been eyeing the company. He has no good intentions to invite us back at this time."

"So it's like this..." Mark gritted his teeth and said, "When he first came to the company, I saw something wrong with him. At that time, I should have shot him dead!"

"Stop talking about that." Song Zihao advised him, "Anyway, be careful these few days, Tan Cheng won't let us go so easily."

"Got it." Mark said muffled.

"Let's go back and drink." Song Zihao put his arm around his shoulder, and put his other hand on Feinan's shoulder, and walked towards the nightclub.
