Chapter 191: Stirring and Restless (Please Subscribe)

Wu Feng did not expect that the societies held so many beautiful woman resources in their hands!

He even felt dazzled, as there were truly too many beautiful women.

Just the gold-medal ladies provided by the major nightlife venues in Mong Kok alone numbered twenty or thirty.

Pure, glamorous, mature, and other types were all available!

Their looks and figures were truly no less inferior to popular celebrities.

Mixed in among the many ordinary contestants, they simply stood out from the crowd.

Moreover, they knew how to showcase their own advantages, and each had a certain talent for performance.

There was no need to pull any strings at all; they passed the preliminary selection with ease.

Appearing on television just a little bit brought about a wave of increased viewership!

When their beautiful photos were published in newspapers, the eye-catching effect was no worse than the female artists under Wu Feng, surpassing the operators who had transitioned from the Emotional Hotline.

Wu Feng did not know what to say about this!

A casual investigation into the situations of these contestants revealed nothing but various human tragedies.

Many of them had fallen into the dust due to family reasons.

Of course, there was no lack of those who entered the trade voluntarily, as the money was easy to earn and life was comfortable.

There were also those who had been deceived when they were young and were still foolishly earning money to support their boyfriends' extravagant lifestyles.

Naturally, there was no shortage of unlucky ones who were controlled by snakeheads and resold to the societies.

In short, each had their own misery, and each had their own difficulties.

These were still the ones who had made a name for themselves and were living passably well.

How could the societies easily let go of those who were truly miserable?

There was no need for Wu Feng to intervene!

Adding the nightlife contestants from Yau Ma Tei and Tsim Sha Tsui, the number of high-quality beautiful women was quite considerable.

Gathered together, just appearing on the television station was a rare sight to behold.

Not only ordinary viewers, but some second-generation rich kids and wealthy people also began to stir.

Lin Ershao was one of them!

Although he had already become a high-level executive in the family's core industry by this time, his playboy personality had not changed.

Seeing the growing momentum of the Asia Television Beauty Pageant, plus the various beautiful photos on television screens and in newspapers, he had long been itching to get involved.

As for his conflict with Wu Feng, he had not taken it to heart at all.

His main rival was Lin Dashao, and Wu Feng was just a guy he had to deal with on the side.

Not to mention, he felt he had already grasped a handle on Wu Feng.

Although he did not know why his old man Lin Baiyi did not take action directly, he believed that dealing with Wu Feng was an easy task.

As long as he targeted Wu Feng's clothing factory in the Mainland, he could directly cut off his most important source of wealth.

Because of this, he no longer really looked at Wu Feng.

However, Lin Dashao had been increasingly successful lately.

Following the success of the television series "Big Designer," the Leather Bag Film Company founded by Lin Dashao became an overnight sensation.

He had single-handedly created a red-hot fashion brand, and that was not even the main point.

The key was that Lin Dashao splashed Hong Kong Dollars, spending large sums to invite a group of well-known Hong Kong Island female stars to be spokespersons, taking the opportunity to have contact with these actresses.

Then, intimate photos of Lin Dashao and these famous actresses frequently appeared on the front pages of various entertainment magazines and newspapers, which made Lin Ershao incredibly envious.

He also wanted to learn and imitate, but unfortunately, the family's core group was not his to command.

Not only that, Lin Dashao's arcade machine foreign trade business was also booming.

With the sales of "A Better Tomorrow 2" and the "Dragon Brother Tiger Brother" arcade machines of the same name, Lin Dashao's foreign trade company had made a huge profit again in a short period of time.

According to estimates by so-called "industry insiders," there was at least several hundred million in profit.

In a short time, the wealth Lin Dashao personally possessed had already reached the billion level!

The key was that these were all very precious cash flows, which was quite exaggerated.

Looking at this trend, he believed that in just a few years, Lin Dashao might really catch up to Lin Baiyi's net worth!

Just thinking about this possibility made it hard for Lin Ershao to stay calm.

What he found most unacceptable was that Lin Dashao's status and position were rising rapidly, gradually widening the gap between them, and every time he thought about it, he felt stifled and uncomfortable.

In a bad mood, he naturally had to go out and have fun with his drinking buddies to vent.

For a young master like him, the way to vent was nothing more than beautiful women.

Even if he couldn't compare to Lin Dashao getting intimate with famous actresses, at least he couldn't be too far behind.

As a result, the Asia Television Beauty Pageant entered his field of vision.

It had to be said that although he did not like Wu Feng, the few programs this guy produced after taking over Asia Television were quite good.

For example, the "Infinite Fighting Tournament," which Lin Ershao liked very much!

Watching the experts fight on the ring made one feel hot-blooded and excited.

Right now, the grand Beauty Pageant, having released some beautiful photos of the contestants, had already attracted his huge attention, and he wished he could block the entrance of Asia Television every day.

In fact, some second-generation rich kids and wealthy people had already done so.

And when Lin Ershao learned that some of the Beauty Pageant contestants, those very eye-catching beautiful women, were actually gold-medal ladies from the nightlife venues in the Mong Kok area, his whole person became excited.

"What you said, is it true?"

Lin Ershao's eyes were full of excitement, and while watching the behind-the-scenes footage of the Asia Television beauty program, he asked loudly.

The person he was questioning was the drinking buddy he was hanging out with.

"It's definitely true, how could I lie to Ershao!"

A fellow playboy friend patted his chest and said, "Ershao has always been playing in high-end venues in Central or Tsim Sha Tsui, so naturally, he isn't familiar with the nightlife spots in Mong Kok!"

"Look at this one on the TV, she's Lili from the Dahuanggong Nightclub on Portland Street in Mong Kok. She is damn beautiful; I hadn't even noticed before!"

"Oh, she is indeed very beautiful!"

Watching the stylish, beautiful, and dazzling contestant on the TV screen, Lin Ershao's eyes lit up.

"It's a pity that since she's participating in the Beauty Pageant, she won't be working for a while!"

The friend said regretfully, "Otherwise, I would have invited Ershao over to have some fun right now!"

"Could it be that they aren't allowed to come out once they join the Beauty Pageant?"

Lin Ershao said unhappily, "Isn't Asia Television being a bit too overbearing by doing this?"

Just then, another beautiful woman appeared on the TV screen, with a completely different style and temperament, yet equally beautiful and dazzling.

Ahem, the reason the makeup of the contestants in the Beauty Pageant looked so eye-catching to the well-traveled Lin Ershao and a group of rich second-generation heirs was naturally Wu Feng's handiwork.

He hadn't come up with styles too far ahead of the era; they were just trends from around the year 2000.

But they were still much better than the perms and various heavy makeup looks of the time.

Combined with the stylish clothing created under Wu Feng's guidance, it wasn't just a matter of beating the current aesthetic; it was at least a grade higher.

Otherwise, how could just a few pretty photos have triggered a small shopping boom in Mong Kok?

In fact, by the time the official competition started, the street stall economy of all of Mong Kok had been raised by another notch because of the contestants' even more eye-catching outfits.

After the preliminary selections, the number of contestants who entered the main competition reached a full one hundred.

The beauty of these pretty women was, without exaggeration, a cut above the average beauty of Miss Asia and Miss Hong Kong.

Everyone has a love for beauty!

Not to mention that with the Hong Kong economy taking off at this time, the purchasing power of many female white-collar workers was quite impressive.

Even for ordinary wage earners, buying trendy clothing at Mong Kok's street stalls wasn't too difficult a task.

The Mong Kok street stall market at this time had already been initially tied to fashion trends.

A-Grade Replica Clothing, shoes, and hats, along with the trendy apparel produced from time to time by the small garment factory under Wu Feng, had already become the first choice for many Hong Kong women when buying clothes.

Even some major Hong Kong clothing brands now showed signs of establishing flagship stores in Mong Kok.

In fact, the first to be affected were the young women in the nightlife industry.

Added to that was Wu Feng's makeup philosophy, which was a small step ahead of the era; it was truly a killer in terms of visual impact.

The reason why the nightlife business in Mong Kok was getting better and better wasn't just because the environment had improved.

Even a super rich second-generation heir like Lin Ershao felt dazzled while watching the beautiful women with different temperaments and figures appearing one by one on the TV screen.

He just felt that every one of them was good-looking, and they all hit his aesthetic preferences.

He wished he could glue his eyeballs to the TV screen; it was truly a feast for the eyes.

"Ershao, Asia Television is making big moves this time, and the cost probably isn't low either!"

The friend smiled and said, "Asia Television's Beauty Pageant this time is expected to last for about three months!"

This could be considered an indirect answer to Lin Ershao's question about them being 'overbearing'.

"Oh, isn't it just a beauty pageant?"

Lin Ershao said with great surprise, "How could it possibly take so long?"

"Asia Television has already released an announcement!"

A strange expression appeared on the friend's face, and his tone was equally weird: "Many of the high-quality contestants here come from various nightlife venues; I don't know how that happened!"

"They may be beautiful, but if you ask them to operate like Miss Asia or Miss Hong Kong, it's very likely to cause a huge joke; after all, they have no substance in their bellies!"

Lin Ershao completely agreed with this!

It wasn't as if he hadn't been to nightclubs, and they were all high-end ones at that.

It wasn't that there were no university students there, but they were quite rare.

Once such a highly educated beauty appeared, the price was much higher than that of an ordinary beauty.

As for the other beauties, they were fine for a bit of fun, but if you tried to have a serious, professional conversation with them, it would just be an annoyance.

"Asia Television is probably worried about making a fool of themselves during the official pageant, so they plan to provide long-term training to the official contestants to improve their quality in all aspects!"

Speaking of this, the friend couldn't help but show a look of amazement: "The cost of this is quite significant; Asia Television is likely going to spend a fortune!"

"Oh, so that's how it is!"

Lin Ershao was also shocked and asked curiously, "Could it be that these beauties from the nightlife venues can really refrain from working for several months? I don't believe it!"

"At the very least, they have to participate in closed-door training for the first month. When the time comes, I must go and experience for myself how effective the training is!"
