Chapter 446: 434 San Francisco Gangs: What
At this time,
The United States, it is already night.
San Francisco, Tang Renjie.
In Tang Renjie, Powell Street, a storefront of more than 200 square meters has a huge sign erected.
Named—Umbrella Property Company! (Naming is bad: seeking suggestions)
And this entire building, with three floors, was all rented out.
At this time, although it was night, it was still brightly lit inside.
"I don't want to do good deeds every day~~"
"We want to be impressive!"
"We want to hack people!"
More than thirty new underlings, one by one, started to clamor, slapping the table with bangs.
These are all young people with nowhere to vent their energy, who like to show off and be impressive everywhere.
And Director Guan Zu's underlings from Hong Kong sneered one by one; at this moment, they are all old seniors.
"You are still too young~~"
Just at this moment,
Wang Jianjun walked down from upstairs, his cold face, cold air rushing towards his face.
All the new underlings were silent like cicadas in winter.
A few days ago, the local white gang, the Boy Gang, came to provoke, and then were beaten into disability by Wang Jianjun in three or two moves.
Even later, they used guns, but Wang Jianjun, who had a gun license, directly fired back, almost sending those gang members away.
That combat power, and the degree of cruelty, were simply perverted!
The underlings who saw this combat process were both admiring and afraid of Wang Jianjun.
Finally, the San Francisco police came and arrested the other gang members, and then the matter ended, and they didn't arrest Wang Jianjun at all.
Why?
Because money paved the way.
Following Xiao Fu donated 2 million USD to the San Francisco Police Department (SFPD), and then donated 500,000 USD to the Tang Renjie branch.
And stated that they would not take the initiative to cause trouble and would do things within the legal scope.
The police station didn't believe it at first, but after watching for half a month, they found that this 'Umbrella Gang' was really law-abiding and often did good deeds, so they gradually relaxed.
What the police station likes most is an organization that gives money and is also legal, so Wang Jianjun's 'legitimate defense' naturally wouldn't be a problem.
Of course, the police stations in the US are not good people either, there are a bunch of corrupt police, as long as there is money to collect, they all turn a blind eye.
"Tonight, I want to meet the San Francisco manager of the Triad, the Wah Ching Gang..."
Wang Jianjun glanced at everyone,
"Who wants to go?"
All the new underlings gasped.
"Triad? Wah Ching Gang?"
One by one, they started to fear.
In San Francisco, there are two major Chinese gang organizations:
1. San Francisco Hongmen Triad: Triad organizations from Hong Kong, China, operating illegal gambling, betting, arms trade, human trafficking, and collecting protection fees, etc... (Gu Huaxing in "Lethal Weapon 4")
2. Wah Ching Gang, members are mostly Chinese teenagers in San Francisco, accumulating wealth and power by collecting protection fees and operating underground casinos. With the passage of time, their power gradually infiltrated surrounding areas, involving themselves in wider illegal fields such as white powder trading and smuggling.
Additionally, there are the Midtown Chinese Gang, Wo Shing Wo... that's right, it's the Wo Shing Wo from Hong Kong, but the gang's strength is relatively average.
Additionally,
In the entire San Francisco, there are many gangs:
Asian:
Vietnamese Gang: Engaged in illegal activities such as smuggling, human trafficking, abducting and kidnapping women and children, suspected white powder trading, and collecting protection fees...
Yamaguchi-gumi:...
African American:
Black Mobile Corps Commander Family: This is a gang mainly composed of African Americans, originating from the California prison system, involving white powder trading, robbery, murder, and other serious criminal activities. Founded by George Lester Jackson, influenced by this person, the organization has always aimed to overthrow the government.
Latino gangs:
Norteños: Mainly active in Northern California, opposing the Sureños; the competition and conflict between the two constitute an important part of the gang struggle in California. In the San Francisco area, they are involved in white powder trading, violent crime, and other illegal acts.
Mara Salvatrucha (MS-13): From Central America, notorious for violence and cruel methods. Activities include extortion, white powder smuggling, murder, etc...
Finally,
White gangs.
Local Boy Gang: A local gang in San Francisco, possessing its own sphere of influence and engaging in criminal activities, specifically involving theft, robbery, and other street crimes.
The last time at the Four Seas Hotel, and this attack incident, were all these people.
Very quickly,
Following Xiao Fu and Wang Jianjun, carrying two relatively brave new underlings, arrived at a restaurant.
In the private room.
The San Francisco heads of the Triad and the Wah Ching Gang, with their confidants and underlings, were already waiting in the private room.
The Triad head was an old man in his 50s, wearing a Zhongshan suit, playing with Buddhist beads in his hand. He brought 10 people.
And the head of the Wah Ching Gang, in his 40s, was strong and sturdy, with cold eyes. He brought 8 people.
At this time,
Following Xiao Fu and the four of them walked into the private room.
"Wow~~~ it's just a simple meeting, no need for so many people..."
Following Xiao Fu looked around and smiled lightly.
He walked slowly into the private room, his eyes sweeping over everyone present, a faint smile always hanging on his face.
He walked straight to the seat, leaned back slightly, sat down extremely relaxed, reached out and picked up the teapot on the table, and poured himself a cup of tea on his own.
Picking up the teacup, he blew the heat lightly, then sipped it slowly, letting out a satisfied sigh.
This series of actions seemed casual, but that relaxed appearance made the two heads of the Triad and the Wah Ching Gang frown.
This calmness and composure, this is definitely confidence in strength.
"Hahaha~~~ Welcome Mr. Li Fu to San Francisco!"
"Serve the food!"
"Come, drink~~~"
The originally cold private room suddenly became lively.
After three rounds of drinks,
After introducing each other,
Finally, they started talking about business.
Following Xiao Fu: "Two... this time I invited everyone over, first is to get to know each other..."
"Secondly, naturally it is to cooperate together!"
Cooperate?
The heads of the Wah Ching Gang and the Triad sneered in their hearts.
We are all gangsters, you came here to grab our turf, how can we cooperate.
Following Xiao Fu: "First, I want to state one point, our Umbrella Property Company does legal business, so we won't have any conflicts of interest with the two societies present."
Legal?
Really?
The crowd of the two gangs looked at each other.
Following Xiao Fu: "Secondly, I have a business, I hope to cooperate with everyone."
Triad head: "What cooperation?"
Following Xiao Fu: "I hope you will do good deeds with our Umbrella Property Company, as a reward: 1 good deed, 5 USD... of course, there must be photos as proof!"
Following Xiao Fu explained the standard for good deeds.
"Ah?"
"What?!"
Whether it was the Triad or the Wah Ching Gang, everyone was stunned.
Do good deeds?
Give a reward?
Is this Li Fu crazy?
And,
Our gang, everyone fears us, fierce and terrifying, ruthless, and you want me to do this kind of good deed?
Impossible!
I will absolutely not do this kind of thing!
Also, we only do things like killing and arson, we are not familiar with good deeds.
However,
Thinking that one good deed is 5 USD, what is easier to make money than this? The Triad head thought: "I have more than 1000 people under me, each person does 3 deeds a day, that is 3000 deeds, which is 15,000 USD. Then 30 days a month, that is 450,000 USD."
Hiss~~~~~
Gasping!
And the head of the Wah Ching Gang also started calculating the account.
Hiss~~~
Gasping again!!
"Hahaha~~~ Mr. Li Fu, this shouldn't be a joke, right? Is it really 5 USD per good deed?"
Following Xiao Fu smiled: "Of course! I can pay 10,000 USD first! You can pay in installments!"
"Since that's the case!"
The Triad head stood up and reached out: "Happy cooperation!"
The head of the Wah Ching Gang stood up and reached out: "Happy cooperation!"
(Content omitted)
Following Xiao Fu shook hands with both, smiling: "Happy cooperation!"
The deal is reached!
Next, the atmosphere in the private room became much warmer, with wine and food, very lively.
After the banquet ended.
The Triad head made a phone call to report this matter to the Triad head—Gu Huaxing. (Li Nianjie in "Lethal Weapon 4")
"Currently, we don't know why they are doing this loss-making business."
"Should we do it?"
Gu Huaxing laughed lightly on the other side of the phone: "Since others are giving money, there's no reason not to do it..."
450,000 USD as a base, no risk.
Why not do it?
On the other side, the head of the Wah Ching Gang also reported this matter upward.
Although the Dragon Head was a bit surprised, he quickly made a decision.
"Do it, definitely do it!"
"At least 450,000 USD a month, if you don't do it, there are plenty of people who will..."
The next day, members of the Triad and the Wah Ching Gang were ordered to do good deeds.
"Must this good deed be done?"
"Boss, doing good deeds, we have no experience!"
"That's right, it's too damaging to our gang's dignity."
"The neighboring gangs will laugh at us!"
"No, absolutely not."
The underlings were very dissatisfied one by one.
We are gangsters!
Very fierce!
Let us do good deeds?!
Very quickly, the order came down—2 USD reward for one good deed.
"What? Doing good deeds can also get money? 2 USD!"
"Sorry, I am the person who likes doing good deeds the most!"
"I don't like money, but I like being praised when doing good deeds!"
The next day,
Tang Renjie appeared in a magical situation where there weren't enough grandpas and grandmas.
Roll up!
Then the police officers of the San Francisco branch: "????"
whatthefuck?!
On the Hong Kong side, a new day,
Hong Kong Island District Headquarters,
Today there will be an important handover ceremony—Commander taking office, handover ceremony!
Large meeting room,
Inspectors and above from the headquarters, seated...
Commanders, supervisors, inspectors and above from various police districts, Chen Chen Guozhong, Cao Dahua, Zhou Xingxing, Ma Jun, Song Zijie, Ling Jing, Liu Situ Jie Society, etc., seated...
In the meeting room, the atmosphere seemed a bit subtle.
"Tread tread tread~~~"
Zheng Songren, with his assistant Fang Yihua, walked into the meeting room with light steps. ("Letter to Daddy")
His face was filled with an irrepressible proud smile, as if the whole person was radiating light.
After all, suddenly getting a promotion, leaping from the position of Chief Superintendent to Assistant Commissioner of Police, this huge surprise made him feel very good.
And Situ Situ Jie sat in the corner of the table, expressionless, unable to tell joy or sorrow.
Although he was notified by Director Guan Zu, he was now being promoted in name but demoted in reality so quickly, and he was going to Criminal and Security to become Huang Bingyao's deputy.
Public power reduced!
Zheng Songren stood on the podium, cleared his throat, and began his inaugural speech:
"Fellow colleagues, today is a special day. I am very honored to be able to come to the Hong Kong Island District Headquarters to work with everyone. I believe that under my leadership, we will definitely be able to take the public security of Hong Kong Island District to a higher level..."
His voice was full of confidence, eloquent on the stage.
Below the stage, Chen Chen Guozhong, Ma Jun, Song Zijie, Cao Dahua, Zhou Xingxing, Ling Jing, Liu Situ Jie Society, and others were habitually together, full of doubts.
Chen Chen Guozhong frowned and said in a low voice: "Why was the Commander changed so suddenly? Commander Situ was doing just fine."
Ma Jun echoed: "That's right, this matter is too sudden, and I don't know what kind of trickery is behind it."
Song Zijie whispered: "Isn't this Zheng Songren the guy who came to make trouble last time? It seems we'll have something to watch in the future."
Others also shook their heads, indicating they couldn't understand.
Ling Jing and Liu Situ Jie Society looked at each other and didn't speak.
Chen Chen Guozhong: "You don't need to worry about these, anyway, I have the final say in the Serious Crimes Unit..."
Everyone nodded.
Very quickly, it was Situ Situ Jie's turn to take the stage, and he said very briefly: "Everyone... all good things must come to an end, and I will still be watching you from Headquarters, hoping that you can continue to create brilliance."
Then he looked at Zheng Songren: "I hope you can manage the Hong Kong Island District police force well and not live up to everyone's expectations."
After speaking, he turned and walked off the podium.
After the handover ceremony, Zheng Songren was in high spirits, talking to the people around him, while Situ Situ Jie silently packed his things, preparing to go to his new post. A handover of power was completed amidst the complex emotions of everyone.
Very quickly, Zheng Songren invited all police officers at the inspector level and above in the police station to go to the Longmen Restaurant for a meal.
In the evening, Longmen Restaurant.
Inside a large private room,
Zheng Songren, this Commander, was in high spirits, inviting many department heads of the Hong Kong Island District Headquarters to come here for a meal.
He himself quite liked his assistant Fang Yihua.
Therefore, at this moment, he was both showing off and showing his masculine charm in front of Fang Yihua.
19:00...
As time passed, more and more police station senior executives, heads, and police officers at the inspector level and above came one after another...
Very quickly it was meal time,
He looked at the seats that were half empty, and his face gradually turned pitch black.
"Commander, many people from the Serious Crimes Unit didn't come..."
"And the Anti-Triad Unit..."
"And quite a few people didn't come."
Zheng Songren's hands turned white from gripping, angry, furious.
At this time, someone else reported to him:
"Commander, just now when I went to the restroom, I saw Situ Situ Jie in another private room, and many people from the Serious Crimes Unit, Anti-Triad Unit, and other departments were over there..."
Bang~~~~
A bowl fell down.
