Hong Kong variety show: Hung Hing, are you contributing to society?

Chen Haonan was getting impatient. Seeing Boss B's leisurely movements, he couldn't help but ask, "Brother B, did you call us in because there's something important you need to do?"

As he spoke, he glanced at Lin Yaodong, who was sitting calmly, with a clear sense of rivalry.

Boss B paused in pouring tea, then glanced at Chan Ho-nam: "Ho-nam, calm down. Impulsiveness is the worst thing you can do when you're doing something big. Look at Ah-tung, learn from him."

He pushed the two cups of tea in front of Lin Yaodong and Chen Haonan.

Chan Ho-nam picked up the teacup, ignoring the heat, and gulped it down. He immediately gasped, smacking his lips, and said, "It's a little hot..."

Lin Yaodong gently picked up the small teacup with his fingertips, first observing its color, then smelling its aroma, before taking a small sip, savoring it briefly in his mouth, and slowly swallowing it.

It's a bit bitter if you drink it straight from the first brew.

He nodded and said, "The tea liquor is a deep red color, with a pronounced aged aroma, a mellow taste, and a pleasant aftertaste. Brother B, this tea is indeed excellent."

"Haha! Ah Dong, you're so insightful!"

Upon hearing this, Boss B laughed heartily, quite pleased with himself. "This was specially bestowed upon me by Mr. Jiang; I wouldn't normally be willing to use it for brewing!"

After a seemingly leisurely tea session, Boss B put down his teacup, leaned forward slightly, and his smile faded, replaced by a serious expression.

Both Lin Yaodong and Chen Haonan knew that the main topic was about to be discussed.

"Anan, you've been with me for over ten years, and Dong, you've been for seven or eight, right..." Boss B's gaze swept across their faces. "I've always considered you two brothers. Now, there's an opportunity for you to take things a step further!"

Get on top!

This word, like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, simultaneously stirred ripples in the hearts of Lin Yaodong and Chen Haonan.

In the triad, once you reach their level, the next level up is "Red Pole," also known as "432," which is a senior officer in the triad. They have the real power to open a brothel, recruit followers, and independently manage a portion of the territory and business.

Lin Yaodong had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time.

Having transmigrated here, he was forced into the world of gangsters, but he was never content to be just a thug who fought and killed.

He knew all too well that in this era where order had not yet been fully established, the power of triads was deeply entrenched, and it would be extremely difficult to withdraw from them.

Since we can't escape, we must become the strongest!

Moreover, he had no intention of quitting now.

Hung Hing is a great platform; if used properly, it can accomplish a lot.

Becoming a "red stick" means greater autonomy, a wider territory, and more resources.

He can use these resources to promote his "good deeds" more efficiently, earn a huge number of contribution points, and at the same time better realize his grand plan hidden under the mask of a "good person".

That is to take Hung Hing as the base, gradually absorb other forces, become the underground emperor of Hong Kong Island, then launder and transform, enter the business world, and even... get involved in politics!

What he wants is not protection money for one block, but the right to decide the future of the entire Hong Kong Island.

Chan Ho-nam also longed to rise to the top. He was young and ambitious, and with his daring and hard-working skills, he had accumulated considerable prestige within the gang. Naturally, he was unwilling to be second to anyone, especially not to be outdone by Lam Yiu-tung, who was always "not doing his job properly".

"Brother B! Just tell me what the task is! I promise I'll do it perfectly!" Chan Ho-nam said eagerly.

Lin Yaodong immediately chimed in, his tone calm yet undeniably confident: "Brother B, what do you need me to do? My men are ready to go at any time. We're fully prepared in terms of manpower, equipment, and intelligence. Everything will be foolproof."

Boss B looked at his two subordinates who were vying to show off, a look of both satisfaction and unease on his face.

He watched Chan Ho-nam grow up; he was brave and loyal, and was the kind of henchman and successor most favored by triads in the traditional sense.

Lin Yaodong, on the other hand, was an anomaly. He was resourceful, shrewd, and, more importantly, seemed to have the ability to turn lead into gold. Not only did he make money himself, but he also made sure that those who followed him benefited. He was highly respected among his underlings.

Both are exceptional talents, and if this task is assigned to one of them, the other will inevitably feel resentful.

He pondered for a moment and said, "Mr. Jiang is very dissatisfied with Babi of Hehetu. That guy has recently overstepped his bounds, touched things he shouldn't have, and didn't even give Mr. Jiang any face... Mr. Jiang has spoken, he doesn't want to see this person again. I'll take on this 'dirty job'."

He paused, his gaze fixed intently on the two of them: "Which of you wants to do this task?"

"I'll do it!" Chan Ho-nam stood up abruptly almost without hesitation.

"Brother B, you know me! I trust my brothers too. I guarantee, before sunrise tomorrow, I'll make sure Babi disappears from Hong Kong Island!"

Lin Yaodong also stood up, his tone calm but with an inexplicable confidence: "Brother B, when it comes to fighting, my subordinates Xiao Fu and Gao Jin are both experts."

Regarding the plan, I can guarantee that Babi will disappear without a trace, causing absolutely no trouble for the gang. This task is more reliable with me.

Chan Ho-nam immediately turned to look at Lam Yiu-tung, his eyes sharp: "Ah-tung, what do you mean? Do you think I, Chan Ho-nam, am unreliable?"

Lin Yaodong calmly replied, "Anan, don't misunderstand. It's just that it concerns the interests of the gang, so we're trying to be thorough. After all, Babi is no pushover either."

As the two men clashed and the tension escalated, Boss B's brows furrowed even more.

According to the club's custom, when an opportunity like this is desired by both sides, it is often decided by a method that seems to be based on luck, such as drawing lots or rolling dice, in order to ensure fairness and avoid internal strife.

However, Lin Yaodong spoke up at this moment. He pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses, his gaze sweeping over Chen Haonan before finally settling on Boss B's face. He then offered a suggestion that surprised both of them:

"Brother B, since Brother Nan and I both want to contribute to the gang, there just happens to be a fighting arena outside..."

A meaningful smile played on his lips. "How about this: Nan Ge and I each send three people to settle things in the ring. Best two out of three, the winner takes all, and the loser accepts defeat wholeheartedly. What do you say?"

Should we entrust our opportunities to the uncertainties of luck?

This has never been Lin Yaodong's style.

He believes in strength, but even more so in meticulous planning and absolute advantage.

Deciding the outcome in the ring would allow him to showcase his muscles and silence everyone's criticisms, which suited his purposes perfectly.

Moreover, he had absolute confidence in the abilities of his subordinates, especially Xiao Fu and Gao Jin.

This is not only a battle for the mission, but also a good opportunity to establish authority among the gang members and dampen Chen Haonan's momentum.

The office fell silent instantly as both men looked at Boss B, awaiting his decision.

The tension in the air almost solidified into a tangible form.
