Hong Kong variety show: The tycoon who emerged from Portland Street

When Chen Mo returned to his newly acquired villa that evening, he still felt a little out of place.

After living in a small house for several years, I suddenly felt that the mansion was too spacious.

Wild boars really can't eat fine chaff.

Chen Mo felt that there was no human presence in the house.

Hmm, it's missing a mistress.

Chen Mo counted the floors. The house had three floors. The third floor had a large bedroom and a study. The second floor had two slightly larger secondary bedrooms and two guest rooms. The first floor had only two small rooms, which were probably for the servants and the driver.

Chen Mo secretly made up his mind to arrange a female hostess for each room on the second and third floors, morning and evening.

The next day, Chen Mo went to his office after having lunch, close to noon.

Not long after I arrived at the office, Da Sha sent someone to bring two cars over.

Two Crown cars were parked in front of the nightclub. Da Sha had specially arranged for two different colors, one black and one gray, both very low-key.

At this moment, a group of thugs were admiring the two cars, their mouths practically drooling.

There was no other way; for these henchmen, one car was enough for them to save up for more than a decade.

"Hey, hey, hey, all of you, move away! Don't drip your saliva on the car!"

Upon seeing Chen Mo and Gao Jin arrive, Da Dou quickly dispersed the henchmen surrounding the car.

"Ah Jin, which one do you like?" Chen Mo ignored the group of underlings and turned to ask Gao Jin.

"Either is fine, Mo-ge, you choose first."

"I'll drive this black one, and the gray one is yours."

Although both cars had nice colors, Chen Mo preferred the black one.

It makes one appear mature.

He tossed the keys to his old Mazda to Da Dou, who was standing nearby.

"Da Dou, I'm giving you my old car. From now on, you'll be in charge of the mahjong parlor. Do a good job!"

Although it's called a mahjong parlor, it's also a gambling den. The customers inside include not only the local residents but also some shady characters.

Based on his understanding of the original story, Chen Mo knew that Da Dou was a very loyal and righteous person.

Moreover, he is quick-witted and tactful, making him perfect for managing a mahjong parlor.

Chen Mo also wanted to see if he really had the ability.

"Thank you, Brother Mo!"

DaDao was overjoyed to receive the car keys.

Although it's a Mazda that Chen Mo has driven for several years, it's still worth tens of thousands of yuan.

Chen Mo had just returned to his office when Thirteen Sister called.

"Hey, Amo, why did you give me such a nice car? If I didn't know your taste, I would have thought you were trying to pick me up!"

Thirteen Sister's tone was full of surprise.

"Sister, don't talk nonsense! People will die! You're my boss! It's only right for your underling to show respect to their boss!"

Chen Mo was startled by Thirteen Sister's words and quickly explained.

If Han Bin thinks Chen Mo is trying to seduce Thirteen Sister, he will definitely come after him.

"Hey~ just kidding! But you're putting me, the big boss, in a really awkward position. I don't even know what to give you!"

"Sister, you don't need to be so formal with me. I'm your younger brother, do you expect me to return the favor?"

"Of course I want some, otherwise I'll lose face! You absolutely have to order something!"

Chen Mo thought for a moment and said, "How about this, Sister Mei, give me Ah May. My nightclub just happens to be short of a madam."

Ruby hasn't come back yet, and the nightclub can't function without a madam.

Ah May was the madam of the former Chinatown nightclub.

Chen Mo only asked her to come over because of her strong ability to lead people, not because she had any special skills.

"Okay, then I'll have Ah May come find you later. Is that all you want?"

"That's enough, Sister Mei! May's presence alone has been a huge help!"

"Alright, just let me know if you need any help!"

Thirteen Sister is growing to like Chen Mo, her little brother, more and more.

In her opinion, Chen Mo was capable, ambitious, intelligent, and loyal; such a person could succeed in any kind of gang.

Privately, Thirteen Sister had long since put aside her boss-like attitude and treated the two of them as equals.

After hanging up with Thirteen Sister, Chen Mo drove his new car directly to Liang Kun's film and television company.

If you're in the business world of Mong Kok, it's still necessary to pay your respects to Brother Kwan.

Liang Kun's film and television company is quite large, occupying two entire floors of a commercial building.

Although there weren't many staff members, all the different roles were filled, making it a complete film crew.

The two-story building was decorated by Liang Kun into various scenes, including bedrooms, offices, hotels, teahouses, and even ancient costume sets.

Of course, they were all used to shoot Category III films.

When Chen Mo arrived, Liang Kun was putting out a fire in his office.

Chen Mo went to the filming location to observe for two minutes and was extremely envious.

It wasn't that they were envious of the female lead, but rather of the entire film and television company.

Even without considering the price of these two buildings, Liang Kun's entire Qiankun Film Studio would be worth tens of millions.

"Amo, how about coming to be my male lead? You're so beautiful, you'd definitely be a huge star!"

Liang Kun, clutching a fire extinguisher, walked out of the office in his hoarse voice and shouted at Chen Mo, who was watching the male and female leads' acting.

"Brother Kun, stop joking! I'm a Communist Party member now, no doubt about it!"

"If I went and made a Category III film, I'm afraid my sister would have someone chop me up!"

The two walked into the office chatting and laughing, a faint scent of photinia still lingering in the air.

"You definitely don't come here unless you need something. What brings you here?"

After the two were seated, Leung Kwan got straight to the point.

Although he was unwilling to offend Thirteen Sister, he was superior to Chen Mo in both status and strength.

It's okay to joke around with Chen Mo, but I won't treat Chen Mo as an equal to myself.

Chen Mo had no dissatisfaction with Liang Kun's attitude, because it was how it should be.

"I came here to pay my respects to Brother Kun and also to give him a small business deal."

Chen Mo plans to turn that large store into a bar.

The location and size of that store are too small to open a nightclub; it's more suitable as a restaurant or bar.

Chen Mo wasn't good at running a restaurant.

But opening a bar is different.

These gang members deal mostly with bars and nightclubs, where they have readily available supplies of alcohol and hostesses—it couldn't be simpler.

Moreover, if it were to become a bar, it would immediately become the largest bar in the surrounding streets.

The profits will be several times higher than opening a restaurant.

Chen Mo planned to hand over the bar renovation work to Liang Kun's people.

The buying and selling of materials, wages of workers, and pricing of renovation contracts are all good avenues for money laundering.

This has resulted in the fact that the renovation of houses on Hong Kong Island is now basically controlled by various triads.

They don't necessarily need to make a lot of money through renovation projects, but they can certainly use this method to launder money.

Although Leung Kwan's film company was also used for money laundering, he didn't give up the renovation work.

Chen Mo had just taken over Women's Street, but he didn't have his own construction team.

Entrusting the renovation to Liang Kun is just right.

Given Liang Kun's personality, he wouldn't even consider spending that little bit of money on renovations.

Not only will they not tamper with the renovation, they might even save Chen Mo a lot of money.

Why not take advantage of such a good thing!
