Chapter 123: What kind of good thing are you thinking about? (Please subscribe)

~11 min read 2,092 words

At Hong Hing's main hall, Jiang Tiansheng's face was full of happy smiles.

"Calling everyone here today, the main purpose is one: to celebrate A-B successfully planting the flag in Causeway Bay!"

Speaking of this, he paused and chuckled: "By the way, I propose A-B to be the Causeway Bay Hall Master!"

"If you all have any thoughts or opinions, you can say them!"

The atmosphere in the large conference room became a bit subtle; not a single Hall Master hummed a sound.

Finally, it was Chen Yao who spoke first: "According to the rules, the territory of Causeway Bay was fought for by A-B, and he is also a senior Red Pole, so it is only right and proper for him to be the Causeway Bay Hall Master!"

Jige hurriedly spoke to echo: "Since it is the society's rules, then let's do it according to the rules!"

The remaining Hall Masters didn't voice opposition, so the matter was settled just like that.

"A-B, take a chair and sit down; now you are also a Hall Master!"

Jiang Tiansheng spoke with a smile, pointing to the position below Chen Yao: "We are all familiar brothers, no need to be polite!"

Big Brother B hurriedly thanked him, and then took a chair and sat in the position designated by Jiang Tiansheng.

Many Hall Masters saw this, and couldn't help but feel a bit disgusted in their hearts; is it necessary to help so obviously?

"Jiang Sheng, Datou's performance this time was so brave, should we open the incense hall directly to promote him to Red Pole?"

Just at this time, Wu Feng suddenly spoke up to suggest: "I think Datou can be cultivated; he could even go to play professional matches, and maybe even win a championship!"

"I heard that there is a fierce man named He Yong on Dongxing's side who is receiving training to prepare for the Southeast Asian boxing tournament; our Hong Hing cannot fall behind either!"

"Wow, Feng Zai, you even know this!"

Jing Kun immediately followed up to stir things up: "Jiang Sheng, I think Feng Zai's suggestion is good!"

As he spoke, he looked at the remaining Hall Masters and shouted: "If you all have subordinates who are particularly good at fighting, don't hide them; send them all to participate in the Southeast Asian boxing tournament!"

"Speaking of which, Feng Zai, is your subordinate Red Pole Zhang Yong also going to participate?"

"That goes without saying!"

Wu Feng laughed and said confidently: "Not to mention winning the championship, at least he won't be out in the first round!"

"Haha, no problem with this!"

Taizi said excitedly: "How about I sign up to participate too?"

Boo...

The Hall Masters immediately let out a chorus of boos.

"Taizi Ge, you'd better forget it!"

Wu Feng said with amusement: "That's a boxing match, the rules are different from Muay Thai fighting!"

"If you win, it's fine, but if you accidentally capsize in the gutter, it won't just be your own face that's lost; Hong Hing will be mocked along with you!"

"That's right, Taizi, don't mess around!"

Tuen Mun Hall Master Xingshu followed up and said: "For this matter, it's better to let the society's Red Poles go!"

Taizi waved his hand, obviously having extinguished the thought of actively participating.

"A-B, what do you say?"

Jiang Tiansheng looked at Big Brother B with a smile and said directly: "A-Feng's words make a lot of sense!"

"This, let's wait a bit!"

Big Brother B hesitated and said: "If we open the incense hall, it's best to let the White Paper Fan and Straw Sandal be promoted together, to save us from having to open the incense hall again later; it's too troublesome!"

Wu Feng saw this, and couldn't help but sneer in his heart, having no good impression of Big Brother B at all.

This guy is really a pure Jianghu person, doing things without a bottom line.

If you can't even reward based on merit, who will dare to fight for their lives following you later?

No wonder in the movie, Big Brother B tricked Datou into going to Stanley Prison for advanced studies; it turns out Datou wasn't a society Red Pole, so that explains it.

If Datou had been a society Red Pole early on, such a broken matter of taking the blame for the Big Brother would never have fallen on him. Even if Big Brother B had such thoughts, the Dragon Head and other Hall Masters wouldn't have agreed.

A society Red Pole is already considered a middle-level cadre of the society, someone who could become a Hall Master at any time. They already possess a certain degree of autonomy and are not so easy to target.

Big Brother B's reason was reasonable, and Jiang Tiansheng didn't insist, so the matter passed just like that.

Wu Feng saw this, and had a deeper understanding of Big Brother B's bad luck in the movie.

Damn, it doesn't matter if you trick people casually, but tricking even the Dragon Head is looking for your own death.

Anyone who sees Big Brother B's attitude toward Datou would have doubts in their heart: is this guy too cold-blooded?

In fact, Big Brother B had many choices if he wanted to separate from Datou.

For example, promote him to a society Red Pole, and then recommend him to take over the vacancy left by Ciyunshan!

Datou might not be too willing in his heart, but if he could be in charge of his own side, he would still honestly accept it.

That evening, Jiang Tiansheng held a large banquet at a nearby restaurant to celebrate Big Brother B's successful promotion.

Wu Feng didn't drink much, and after three cups, he started eating food directly.

The other Hall Masters didn't force him either, as everyone knew his habits, and even Jiang Tiansheng had to give him face.

In the restaurant lobby, Wu Feng did see the excited Chen Haonan, Shanjie, and Datian Er, but didn't see Baopi and Chaopi.

He had no interest in inquiring, and left directly after the banquet dispersed.

Jing Kun, this guy, actually had the nerve to follow him and get into the modified van together.

"Kun Ge, aren't you going to find some fun with Jige?"

Wu Feng said with amusement: "What, were you talking in your sleep at the dinner table earlier?"

"How could that be? I just invited Jige to the Grand Palace Nightclub!"

Jing Kun waved his hand and smiled: "I don't go to other places to mess around now; I basically just hang around in my own territory, all learning your style!"

"Don't put me on a pedestal!"

Wu Feng said irritably: "Speak, what's the matter again?"

"Feng Zai, tell me, Jiang Tiansheng is so impatient to push A-B to the top, what exactly is he planning?"

Jing Kun's expression became serious, and he said sternly: "If I can't figure this out, I feel uneasy!"

"What does it have to do with you, Kun Ge?"

Wu Feng sneered: "At this moment, even if your Hall Master position was taken away, are you afraid, Kun Ge?"

"Afraid of a hair!"

Jing Kun sneered: "I have a film company; even if I don't have the Hall Master position, I can still live well, so why worry about this?"

"Doesn't that settle it?"

Wu Feng said with amusement: "No matter what Jiang Tiansheng wants to do, we just need to watch!"

"In fact, I even suspect that what Jiang Tiansheng wants to do might not be a good thing for us!"

"Didn't you say, kid, that we don't need to worry about Jiang Tiansheng messing around at all!"

Jing Kun asked suspiciously: "I don't know what you're worried about, kid?"

"I'm worried that Jiang Tiansheng might want to decentralize power and give us Hall Masters greater autonomy!"

Wu Feng said indifferently: "In the future, if it's not a major matter concerning the society, Jiang Tiansheng won't care, letting us Hall Masters handle it ourselves; then the trouble will be huge!"

"Isn't that very good?"

Jing Kun rolled his eyes, looking at Wu Feng with a very strange look, as if looking at a fool.

"Good my ass!"

Wu Feng said irritably: "In the future, when we encounter trouble in the Jianghu, we have to handle it ourselves first!"

"Besides, if Jiang Tiansheng really does this, we will have to handle more Jianghu affairs in the future; I don't have that much energy and time!"

Hearing this, Jing Kun also felt it was very troublesome. He was also putting a lot of energy into legitimate businesses at this time, and was letting go of society affairs as much as he could; if there were suddenly a lot of affairs in this regard, just thinking about it gave him a headache.

"If Jiang Tiansheng does this, isn't he afraid of losing control over Hong Hing?"

If he couldn't figure it out, he wouldn't think about it; Jing Kun still felt that Jiang Tiansheng wouldn't act like this.

"Kun Ge, I didn't expect that after messing around for so long, you'd still be so naive!"

Wu Feng glanced at Jing Kun faintly and said with amusement: "Have you read the big news that shocked Hong Kong recently?"

"Naturally, I have!"

Jing Kun was a bit suspicious, not understanding why Wu Feng suddenly changed the subject, but still answered honestly: "I really didn't expect HSBC to support Li Bancheng so strongly; it's simply unreal!"

"That is the position of the richest Chinese man in Hong Kong; just thinking about it feels incredible, too crazy!"

"That's not what I mean!"

Wu Feng was a bit dumbfounded, gently shook his finger, and said slowly: "What I want to say is that Li Bancheng can become a Chinese tycoon only by relying on HSBC's support!"

"Then Kun Ge, do you think that Hong Hing can become a first-class society in Hong Kong, and sometimes even become the number one society; does the Jiang family not have supporters and backers among the high-level Hong Kong British government?"

Seeing Jing Kun react, he continued: "How much time and energy did Jiang Tiansheng and his father Jiang Zhen spend to open up the relationships and joints? That is the Jiang family's network resource!"

"No one knows how much of Hong Hing's dividends Jiang Tiansheng has to take out every year just for filial piety!"

"It is estimated that those relationships only recognize the two brothers Jiang Tiansheng and Jiang Tianyang; the others, even if they sit in the Dragon Head position, simply won't be able to sit firmly!"

Speaking of this, he spread his hands and chuckled: "Speaking of which, as long as Hong Hing doesn't fall apart, even if Jiang Tiansheng hides behind the scenes, he doesn't have to worry about losing control!"

"As for Big Brother B's promotion, it's just adding an insurance policy!"

"Three streets in Causeway Bay; if I were to manage them, in a year I would become one of the most powerful Hall Masters in Hong Hing, and in three years I would be the strongest Hall Master without a doubt!"

Jing Kun didn't doubt this at all; Wu Feng absolutely had such management ability.

Only at this time, his heart was churning, and he simply had no other extra thoughts.

The slight thought of being Hong Hing's Dragon Head in his heart was ruthlessly shattered by Wu Feng's rhetoric.

Thinking about it, it's true; from Jiang Zhen to Jiang Tiansheng, the Jiang father and son have managed Hong Hing for more than thirty years; how could it be easily occupied by an outsider?

If he hadn't eaten the dividends in mainstream movies, and integrated into Hong Kong's mainstream film circle, seen different scenery, and had his vision and knowledge improved, it would be difficult to understand Wu Feng's rhetoric.

According to the thoughts of ordinary society Big Brothers, isn't it just about tribute and filial piety?

Even if Hong Hing changed a Dragon Head, the filial piety and benefits given to the superiors wouldn't be less.

But now he understands how naive and ridiculous such thoughts are.

Sometimes, even if you want to send money out, you can't find the door or channel; the world is just that absurd.

The van arrived in the Mong Kok area; Wu Feng first sent Jing Kun and his subordinates to the Qiankun Film and Television Company, and then turned back to the Shanghai Street Tuodi.
