Feng Shui Secrets of the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 547 The Scent of Conspiracy

"The taste is off?"

Fatty Lin frowned.

I explained the situation, and Fatty Lin tapped the table, saying, "I really didn't think of it as the Five Fiends causing chaos in Hong Kong!"

"Fatty, as you know, these past two years have been tough. With the economic crisis, only our Great Xia has fared relatively well. Hong Kong is our window to the outside world, known as the financial center of the East, and a lot of capital is flowing here. Under these circumstances, there are quite a few envious forces!"

I said.

It's not just a matter of red-eye disease. If Hong Kong Island, as a financial center, does well, it will have a siphon effect, with funds from all over the world flowing in.

With Hong Kong Island doing well, the other places aspiring to become the financial center of the East are naturally not happy.

For example, Singapore, which controls the Strait of Malacca; Edo, the capital of Japan; and Taiwan, which is next door. Once Hong Kong Island prospers, none of these places, as competitors, will be happy.

In addition, the smaller Southeast Asian countries that fear the return of the Great Xia to its former glory also cannot stand to see Hong Kong doing well.

For example, Jiaozhi, and Luzon, which was once a colony of America.

These countries or forces all have intelligence agencies stationed in Hong Kong.

For this reason, Hong Kong Island is also known as the spy capital.

In the eyes of various forces, many things are not secrets at all; some things might even be leaked by them.

"You mean some external force is using leaks about the entertainment industry to stir up evil energy?" Fatty Lin asked.

"I think it's possible!" I nodded.

"Okay, I'll call Sister Lingling!" Fatty Lin said after thinking for a moment.

"You want to ask her about things inside the Xuanmen Association?" I asked.

"That's right!"

Fatty Lin nodded and said, "Last time Sister Mei came to see me for treatment, I treated her twice, you did a course of acupuncture, and I also gave you some secret medicine left by our master. The total came to four million, which is a rock-bottom price!"

"This price was given out of respect for Sister Lingling; it's a favor, and now it's time for her to repay it!"

"I'm a little embarrassed!" I said.

"You're crazy! Sometimes you're pretty smart, and sometimes you're pretty stupid. When it comes to relationships, it's all about mutual help. If you always help others without asking for anything in return, over time they'll either think you're a fool or feel like they owe you too much and will be too embarrassed to ask you for help again!"

Fatty Lin pointed at me and started giving me a lesson.

"That makes sense!" I nodded.

"So, sometimes you should ask for help when necessary. For example, this time, we asked, and Liu Lingling not only didn't find it difficult, but she was happy, feeling that we asked her because we considered her one of our own!" Fatty Lin said.

"Fatty, aren't you worried that Liu Lingling isn't one of us?" I asked.

"You madman, what can I say to you? We've been in contact with Liu Lingling more than once or twice. She's actually the kind of person Zhuang Xuanji described who hopes Hong Kong will be in chaos but not fall apart, because only in this way can she make a living and keep earning money. So if Hong Kong is in chaos, it won't do her any good. She'll definitely help us in this situation!" Fatty Lin said.

"Brother, Fatty is right!" Long Nier said.

"Chirp!" Little Hachi also popped out and nodded.

"Okay, go ahead and hit me!" I said.

"You lunatic, let me tell you, even if it's not Liu Lingling, even Zhuang Xuanji would give us some information if he got a call right now!" Fatty Lin said as he dialed Liu Lingling's number.

"Sister Lingling, it's me, Fatty!"

After the call connected, Fatty Lin said with a smile.

"Xiao Lin, you never come here unless you need something. So, what do you want?" Liu Lingling said with a smile.

"Sister Lingling, it's like this!"

Fatty Lin didn't hold back and pieced together the events of the past few months.

From the entertainment district to Windsor Building, to the fall of Stanley Ho, and most recently, the Samsung secret marriage that has caused a stir throughout Hong Kong.

"Xiao Lin, you forgot to mention something!" Liu Lingling said after hearing this.

"What?"

"I asked, Fatty Lin."

"Meiqi's recording scandal!" Liu Lingling said.

"Oh yeah, I forgot about her!" Fatty Lin clapped his hands.

The recording scandal involving Maggie Q has been going on for several months and is still not over.

Recently, after the couple reconciled, they sued their former agent.

From this perspective, over the past six months, one scandal after another has emerged in Hong Kong, gradually stirring up public sentiment and making the atmosphere on the island more volatile.

"Xiao Lin, actually I've wanted to talk to you about the Five Fiends' chaos in Hong Kong for a long time, but since you haven't brought it up, I can't bring it up either!" Liu Lingling said in a deep voice.

"Sister Lingling, are you afraid we'll overthink it and mistake you for one of Wu Peiwen's gang?" Fatty Lin asked with a smile.

"That's right!"

Liu Lingling smiled and said, "When we first met, I only said a few extra words, and you all suspected I had ill intentions!"

"Don't deny it, I've been around for so many years, I can still read people's expressions!"

Before Fatty Lin could speak, Liu Lingling added another comment.

Hearing this, the three of us exchanged glances. We have to admit, Liu Lingling has a really sharp eye; that's exactly what we thought at the time.

"Is Thirteen listening in too?"

Liu Lingling's voice rang out again at this moment.

"Thirteen, you're an honest person. Tell me the truth, was that what you were thinking at the time?"

Before Lin Pangzi could deny that I was not there, Liu Lingling asked again.

"yes!"

From Liu Lingling's confident tone, it was clear that I had no choice but to admit it honestly.

We have to admit that compared to a seasoned veteran like Liu Lingling, the three of us were a bit green.

"Sister Lingling, could you please enlighten us? What's your take on the current situation?"

Fatty Lin quickly recovered, taking advantage of his thick skin, and said with a grin.

"You little rascal!"

Liu Lingling let out a breath and said, "You just want to know my stance, right? Fine, I'll tell you!"

"Hey, Sister Lingling, the three of us are all ears!" said Fatty Lin.

"My stance is actually very simple: I stand on the side of Hong Kong Island. As a Hong Kong Islander, I don't want Hong Kong Island to be in chaos!" Liu Lingling said in a deep voice.

"Sister Lingling, we think the same way as you. We've been in Hong Kong for over two years and have developed feelings for it. We don't want Hong Kong to be in chaos either!" Fatty Lin took a deep breath and echoed in a deep voice.

His performance had a bit of a movie actor feel to it.

What he said was true, but he was being too fake.

"Xiaolin, how about this? There are some things that can't be explained over the phone. Let's meet in person!" Liu Lingling continued.

"Okay, Sister Lingling, you choose the place, and we'll talk in person!" Fatty Lin said.

"Okay, I'll decide on the location!" Liu Lingling replied.
