Chapter 118: Each Has Their Own Thoughts! (Seeking Subscriptions)

The matter Jiang Tiansheng wanted to announce was just this.

For the various Hong Hing Hall Masters at this moment, it really wasn't any big deal.

Unless it meant letting them go to Causeway Bay to plant their flag, which was obviously impossible.

Since there was no way to get a share of the spoils, why bother caring if Dalao B had hit a streak of incredible luck?

Besides, it wasn't such an easy thing for Dalao B to plant his flag in Causeway Bay.

Did he really think the fierce figures from other triads were just for show?

Hall Masters like Wu Feng and Jing Kun, who sat in command at Mong Kok, had to do nothing more than keep the other triads' large-scale troop movements in Mong Kok in check; as for small groups of elite personnel, how could they be stopped?

"A Feng, I heard you set up a boxing ring in Mong Kok?"

After Jiang Tiansheng finished speaking about the matter, he stood up and left the meeting hall with Chen Yao and Dalao B.

Wu Feng had originally intended to stand up and leave as well, but unexpectedly, Taizi, with whom he had little contact, suddenly spoke up to ask.

The remaining Hall Masters heard this and stopped their movements to stand up, one after another, wanting to hear the details.

Regardless of anything else, they still quite recognized and admired Wu Feng's ability to make money.

Even Jige, who had just caused some unpleasantness, thickened his skin and stayed behind.

"Heh, it was taken over from Ben Shu of Tung Sing!"

Wu Feng laughed, "I don't have much of a plan for it yet, so I'm letting my subordinates handle it for now!"

"Oh, I originally thought you had some ideas about boxing matches!"

Taizi said with some regret, "Have you thought about how to manage it? Why not just let me have it!"

This person was considered a martial arts fanatic, though he certainly couldn't be called a good bird.

Over in Tsim Sha Tsui, he mainly did underground boxing match business, and his days could only be described as average.

Of course, Taizi was considered a calling card for Hong Hing, and the title of "God of War of Hong Hing" was still very resounding.

He had fought in professional matches, and was a frequent visitor to underground boxing matches; his actual combat ability was truly stronger than average.

Even if Wu Feng were to fight him right now, he wouldn't have absolute certainty of winning.

"Let's forget about it!"

Wu Feng waved his hand and laughed, "I want to try hosting professional boxing matches!"

"Currently, it's still in the early planning stage. It's my first time doing something like this, so I estimate it might take a while, so I won't invite you all to participate!"

The Hall Masters present heard this and revealed expressions of "as expected."

Jing Kun was the first to clamor, dissatisfied, "Feng Zai, doing it like this isn't very friendly!"

"Hey, that was just a spur-of-the-moment idea of mine!"

Wu Feng wasn't embarrassed at all, and explained in a relaxed tone, "I also heard that top boxers in the United States get millions of Dollars just for their appearance fee!"

"I don't really feel like boxing matches over in the United States are all that popular or trendy!"

These words hit home with the Hall Masters present, and they nodded one after another in agreement.

Various sports matches from the United States didn't have much coverage or market in Hong Kong, let alone any influence.

Hearing suddenly that a top boxer in the United States could get such an exaggerated appearance fee for one match, one could imagine how great the shock and impact in their hearts was.

"My idea is very simple!"

Wu Feng said unhurriedly, "Since boxing matches are so popular in the United States, I'll just create a fighting competition. At the very least, it will be more watchable than boxing matches!"

"Not to mention anything else, the close-combat Underlings under me are putting on exhibition matches there every day, and the number of spectators they attract is increasing more and more. Just from ticket sales alone, they make twenty or thirty thousand!"

Seeing that the Hall Masters were unimpressed, he laughed, "The ticket money is indeed not much, but the drinks, snacks, and fast food sold every day add up to nearly one hundred thousand a day. That's not a small amount!"

"That much?"

Taizi was somewhat surprised and doubted, "Are you mistaken?"

"The flow of people is the rolling Hong Kong Dollars; it just depends on how you earn it!"

Wu Feng smiled lightly, stood up, and greeted, "Let's go, let's go, everyone go back to your own business!"

On the other side, Jiang Tiansheng and Chen Yao were also talking about Wu Feng.

After sending off the overjoyed Dalao B, Jiang Tiansheng asked directly, "A B's matter has been arranged properly; have the situations of the other Hall Masters been scouted out clearly?"

"They are all still quite well-behaved!"

Chen Yao reported seriously, "The most prominent ones are Mong Kok Hall Master Jing Kun and Sai Kung Hall Master Wu Feng!"

"But neither of them is very concerned about triad affairs; they put all their heart and mind into legitimate businesses. Just making movies is enough to make them earn a fortune!"

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but mutter, "It's truly damn weird!"

Jiang Tiansheng and Chen Yao had naturally tried investing in movies, but the result was a total loss.

Especially Chen Yao, who managed the triad's finances and headed the finance company opened by the triad; he often needed to launder money through movie investments, but unfortunately, none of them made even the slightest splash.

If everyone were the same, it would be fine, but Wu Feng and Jing Kun were making huge profits. How could they keep their balance? They were almost consumed by the flames of jealousy.

It was hard to plant people on Wu Feng's side, but there was an informant of Chen Yao's around Jing Kun, and their status wasn't low either; they were a veteran Four-Nine in the core circle, who could be promoted to a high-ranking member at any time.

The information they knew was quite extensive, and they had a rough understanding of the accounts of Qiankun Film and Television Company.

Precisely because of this, Chen Yao vaguely knew exactly how much legitimate money Jing Kun could earn from producing a high-quality movie—at the very least, it was twenty million Hong Kong Dollars and up.

Such an astonishing figure really shocked him quite a bit, and he didn't even dare to easily tell Jiang Tiansheng.

Otherwise, Jiang Tiansheng would definitely want to investigate the previous movie investment situations, and that was no joke.

"That's because they have the ability, and their vision is also quite good!"

Jiang Tiansheng naturally didn't know the secret thoughts in Chen Yao's heart, and teased, "Even if you're envious, you can't be; some money really isn't that easy to earn!"

Chen Yao didn't say much more, just nodded repeatedly in agreement.

"The Hall Masters are all well-behaved, so I can rest easy!"

Jiang Tiansheng smiled lightly, "Once A B successfully plants his flag in Causeway Bay, I will announce that matter!"

"Jiang Sheng, do you really want to do this?"

Chen Yao hesitated and said, "You must know that once you delegate power, it won't be easy to take it back!"

"It doesn't matter!"

Jiang Tiansheng said domineeringly, "As long as I am still here, it is impossible for Hongxing Society to be snatched away by others!"

"The most critical thing right now is how to whitewash my identity. I don't want to run off to Taiwan to retire in my old age, and the Netherlands is even more impossible!"

When he said this, his heart was full of depression.

If one were to speak of his own financial resources, they would be enough to rank among the middle-tier Red Mansion of Hong Kong.

Unfortunately, because of his identity, the vast majority of his money cannot be brought to the table, and he cannot even enter many industries, so he can only watch and drool.

Take the real estate industry, for example; even if he were willing to spend a huge sum of money, he could at most acquire completed buildings. It is simply impossible for him to become a real estate developer directly.

"Alright then, I will keep an eye on the various Hall Masters!"

Chen Yao was also quite depressed in his heart, but since the arm cannot twist the thigh, he could only pinch his nose and accept it.

You must know that as the White Paper Fan and strategist of Hongxing Society, his authority and status both depend on the Dragon Head, Jiang Tiansheng.

When Jiang Tiansheng is in charge of the overall situation and his word is final, he is the veritable second-in-command of the Hongxing Society, with a status even above the various Hall Masters.

But he also knows Jiang Tiansheng's heart disease; there is simply no way to balance the relationship between the society and the legitimate world, so he can only let Jiang Tiansheng do as he pleases.

Some things really cannot be said!

At this time, Jiang Tiansheng's personal financial resources have reached a staggering level.

Especially after joining the business of smuggling Premium A-Grade Goods and taking on the job of smuggling to Europe and America, the speed of making money might be faster than printing banknotes.

But the problem is that his social status does not match his wealth at all.

Let's put it this way: a Chief Inspector of the West Kowloon Police Station can summon him to go have tea.

Being detained for twenty-four to forty-eight hours at will—how could the current Jiang Tiansheng stand it?

At this time, the identity of the Hongxing Dragon Head is too much of a restriction and shackle on him.

But it is not realistic to get rid of it completely!

It is not that outsiders do not recognize it, but that the massive wealth in his hands would have no defensive wall.

The best way is actually to slowly dilute the influence and deterrent power of the Hongxing Dragon Head in the outside world.

If the timing is right, he could even voluntarily give up the position of Dragon Head; wouldn't it be nice to be an invisible Big Brother?

It is not that his brain has water in it, but that there is no harm without comparison.

As for the object of comparison, it is naturally his own younger brother who is a wealthy man in Siam.

In the movie, Jiang Tianyang was much more decisive.

By the sixth installment, Winner Takes All, Chen Haonan had already become the Hongxing Dragon Head.

In reality, given his seniority and strength, one can only say it was barely enough.

On the other side, Dalao B returned to the Ciyunshan Tuodi in high spirits and immediately gathered his trusted subordinates to discuss the major event of planting a flag in Causeway Bay.

The group of fighters led by Datou were all excited and eager to try upon hearing the news.

At this time, the fighters under Dalao B were led by Datou, and there were also many veteran Four-Nines with impressive strength.

In fact, whether in terms of seniority or actual combat ability, Chen Haonan could not even rank in the top five.

Because not much profit could be scraped from the Ciyunshan territory, Dalao B's income was very average, and the Hongxing fighters up and down were living a miserable life, so they didn't cause trouble because of Chen Haonan's affairs.

So what if the Big Brother values him?

Isn't it still for the sake of livelihood that he goes to sell Pork Trotter Rice?

Those who have the confidence to mutter like this are naturally the veteran Four-Nines under Dalao B.

They basically all have venues in their hands; even if it is just a pool hall or a lottery stall, there is no problem in providing for their own food and drink, though of course, there is certainly no spare money in their pockets.

When everyone is poor, the little bit of unhappiness in their hearts will naturally not erupt rashly.

But at this moment, Chen Haonan was both excited and quite hesitant.

You must know that since opening the Pork Trotter Rice shop with a few close brothers, not only has business been getting better and better, but there is also a dividend of two or three hundred every day.

Placed here in Ciyunshan, he is definitely a high-income person at this time.

As long as he doesn't spend too extravagantly or buy high-consumption goods like cars or high-end motorcycles, his life is quite carefree and comfortable; Shanjie and the others are in a similar situation.
