Chapter 277: Spending Money to Buy a Reputation (Seeking Monthly Votes)

Slap!

Jige slapped the Underling standing beside him, knocking him to the ground.

"F*ck your mother, if you don't want to live, don't drag me down with you!"

Pointing at the Underling who had just been slapped to the ground and was wailing in pain with loose teeth, Jige said coldly and sternly: "Damn it, I told you to go to the lottery sales point to maintain order, and you actually got into a fight with a customer?"

"Do you have any idea how terrible the impact of your f*cking behavior is?"

The more Jige spoke, the angrier he became, and he kicked the Underling a few more times before raging: "At the previous meeting at the main hall, Mr. Jiang and the new Dragon Head questioned me at the same time; do you know how embarrassed I was then?"

For this grand lottery event, the entirety of Hong Hing was cooperating with all its might.

But since it was the first time playing on such a large scale, they were naturally quite cautious and careful. They were terrified that if they didn't do it well, a good thing would end up becoming a bad thing due to improper operation.

Although they couldn't be like those formal corporate groups, monitoring and adjusting at any moment.

Still, during the rest time after the event ended each day, they had to properly summarize, check for omissions, and fill in the gaps, striving to correct mistakes if they had them and encourage themselves if they didn't.

With Jiang Tiansheng and the new Dragon Head Han Bin personally presiding, no Hall Master dared to be negligent.

When making the plan earlier, they had spent a lot of effort and even invited university professors, as well as hiring talent with experience in coordinating large-scale events at high salaries.

They made the details involved in the event as standardized and process-oriented as possible, and even capable of being quantified!

At this time, the Mainland university mathematics professors and students invited earlier came in very handy.

Through various means, the event table data produced was detailed, clear, and easy to understand; whenever a problem arose, one could basically see the clues at a glance.

At the same time, at the summary meeting after the event ended each day, whenever there was something done poorly, it would be directly pointed out and criticized without any politeness.

On the very first day, Jige's Underling caused a mess!

Because of a bad temper and harsh words, he had a conflict with the lottery buyers in line, which eventually escalated to the point of coming to blows.

Then, Jige was blasted at the summary meeting.

Neither Jiang Tiansheng nor Han Bin gave him any face, making him quite embarrassed.

Don't look at Jige as basically being a fence-sitter when attending meetings at the main hall.

But once he returned to the Xihuan branch, his true colors were immediately revealed and his ferocity flared up.

After all, he was an older generation 'God of War of Hong Hing'; although he was old and not taken seriously by other Hall Masters, it was still easy for him to deal with an Underling.

"Big Brother, calm your fire!"

Seeing that Jige's temper had been vented enough, his trusted Underling, who had been silent the whole time, hurriedly spoke up to persuade him: "This kid's personality is impulsive, you know that, Big Brother!"

"Hmph, he was only temporarily acting as security, is it that hard to suppress his temper?"

Speaking of this, Jige got angry: "With a subsidy ranging from two hundred to five hundred a day, f*ck, even just for the sake of money, he should know how to do his job, right?"

This time, Wu Feng was truly prepared to bleed heavily.

All the society brothers who participated, according to their different divisions of labor and different contributions, received a subsidy ranging from two hundred to five hundred per day.

The event was held for ten days, and one person could receive a maximum subsidy of five thousand.

In the current climate, five thousand Hong Kong Dollars was not a small number!

Adding in the police and government staff helping to maintain order, as well as the university student volunteers, Wu Feng was planning to shell out nearly one hundred million Hong Kong Dollars as subsidies.

"Big Brother, are there any other activities that only require fighting and killing?"

The trusted Underling hesitated for a long time, but finally gritted his teeth and asked: "This kid's temper is too volatile, it explodes as soon as it's triggered, I'm worried it will affect you, Big Brother!"

"Hmph, since he likes fighting and killing so much, then send him to Indonesia!"

Jige said unhappily: "It just so happens that the new Dragon Head wants to open a new branch over there, and there are plenty of conflicts and opportunities to take action with the local native gangs!"

After finishing, he waved his hand and turned to leave, not wanting to continue dealing with such a troublesome Underling.

Things like this were not only being done by Jige, but other Hall Masters were doing it too.

There was no help for it; the society could not compare to a formal company, and the quality of the bottom-level Scum really could not be counted on too much.

Fortunately, the Hall Masters and the big bosses were still able to hold down the fort.

Plus, the subsidies given by the society were truly not small, so more society Underlings were still willing to work honestly to earn money.

On the evening of that day, Asia Television news had a report on the relevant aspects.

In the television footage, that scene of a sea of people and a heated atmosphere was truly shocking to the audience.

It was just that what was reported the most was the 'Benefit-to-the-People Discount Promotion' launched by Hong Hing.

Asia Television specially created a temporary special program, reporting in detail on the ins and outs of the pre-New Year discount promotion.

In the television footage, the minibuses carrying the grandmothers and aunties were quite eye-catching.

"Hong Hing is really generous, actually providing free minibus pick-up and drop-off for these residents!"

"It's a pity I knew about it too late; I just don't know how long such an event can last?"

"If there were free minibuses to ride, I would also be happy to run over to Mong Kok to purchase New Year goods!"

"Thirty percent off, it wouldn't be fake, would it? How could Hong Hing be so kind?"

"..."

The audience discussed it heatedly, speaking their minds without reservation while chatting with their families.

In the television footage, when the minibus stopped at the entrance of the vegetable market, the scene of a group of grandmothers and aunties truly purchasing large amounts of thirty-percent-off New Year goods with the help of Hong Hing members appeared, which greatly shocked the audience in front of the television.

"It really is thirty percent off; how much money would be saved after this trip?"

"It's a pity that only customers brought by Hong Hing members get the thirty-percent-off treatment!"

"What kind of method did Hong Hing use to make the pork stalls and fish stalls so willing?"

"Oh my, there are even candies and snacks; if they are thirty percent off, a lot of money can be saved!"

"No, I have to ask the nearby Hong Hing members if they can let me participate too?"

"What a big move, this is a rare good deed done by Hong Hing!"

"..."

While the audience's thoughts drifted and they discussed it among themselves, on the television screen, a reporter was interviewing grandmothers and aunties who had purchased quite a lot of New Year goods.

"Nan Zai is a good boy; although he joined a triad, he has never harmed the neighbors, and this time, when there was a good thing, he specifically came back so that all the neighbors could benefit!"

"I hope there are more activities like this; that way, we can save more on living expenses!"

"I didn't bring enough money today, I'll come out to shop again tomorrow!"

"It's quite good; I hope this kind of activity isn't just a flash in the pan and can continue!"

"It would be even better if the discount could be a bit bigger!"

"Being able to buy discounted New Year goods means we can have a good New Year this year; thank you, Hung Hing!"

Following the television broadcast, the influence expanded rapidly!
