Hong Kong variety show: I Am a Tycoon

Chen Jiajun said to the intelligence personnel, "Continue!"

The intelligence officer continued, "Now that Seok Dong-chul is dead, there are three potential successors for the Kinmen Group!"

"The first one is Zhang Shouji, the second-in-command of the Kinmen Group. He used to be the leader of the Imperial Japan faction, but he was sidelined because Shi Dongchu was wary of him! Although he is the second-in-command, he is the weakest in terms of strength."

"The second one is Ding Qing, the former leader of the Peking University sect. After being recruited, he followed Shi Dongchu and became the third-in-command of the group. He controls the entire group's construction, logistics and other industries, and is also Shi Dongchu's next successor. He is very powerful!"

"The third one is Li Zhongjiu, the fourth-in-command of the group. He controls industries such as loan sharking and entertainment venues, and his strength should not be underestimated."

Upon hearing his subordinate's introduction and seeing the documents in front of him, Chen Jiajun immediately turned his attention to the guy named Ding Qing.

Although Chen Jiajun's memories of the past are somewhat hazy, he has forgotten many of the movies he has seen.

But this guy had left a deep impression on him back then.

He's a true elevator god!

"Who is this Ding Qing?" Chen Jiajun asked, pointing at the photo. "This guy looks different from those Korean bastards!"

The intelligence officer said with a smile, "It's different. This guy is of Chinese descent and also has business in Shanghai."

Upon hearing this, Chen Jiajun immediately smiled and said, "Great, I'll choose him!"

"Him?" The intelligence officer was somewhat surprised. "Boss, this guy has a strange personality; he's a very difficult person to deal with!"

Chen Jiajun said calmly, "I chose him precisely because he's difficult to deal with. Being difficult to deal with also means he's the strongest and most likely to win this position. I need you to gather all the information on this Ding Qing. Any questions about buying it?"

"Understood, boss!" The intelligence officer nodded without saying anything more and went to do his job.

Intelligence agencies have been in South Korea for a long time, and investigating government departments could cause trouble.

However, investigating a gang leader is still not a problem.

Within just three days, the intelligence department had uncovered information on Ding Qing and everyone around him.

Upon seeing the documents his subordinates brought, Chen Jiajun immediately laughed: "This is really interesting! It seems things are going much more smoothly than I expected! Choosing Ding Qing was definitely the right decision!"

The intelligence officer said to Chen Jiajun, "Should we send someone to contact Ding Qing right now?"

Chen Jiajun shook his head and said, "No need, I'll go myself!"

The intelligence officer said with a smile, "It just so happens that Ding Qing was invited for tea by the South Korean police. This is indeed a good opportunity."

Chen Jiajun nodded, then had someone drive directly to the police station where Ding Qing was located.

As soon as Ding Qing stepped out, she hurriedly called a driver to take her to the airport.

The situation in Shanghai was causing him a great deal of trouble, and he had to handle it personally.

But as soon as he stepped outside, a man in black approached him: "Mr. Ding Qing? Our boss would like to see you! Do you have time now?"

Ding Qing laughed in exasperation: "Do you even know who I am? You think you can just go whenever I tell you to?"

"Of course I know!" the man in black said calmly, his expression unchanged.

"No time, go play somewhere else!" Ding Qing waved his hand impatiently, as if shooing away a fly.

The man in black didn't leave; he just looked at Ding Qing and said, "Ding Qing wants to head to Shanghai to discuss logistics, right?"

Ding Qing immediately became alert, frowning as he asked, "How did you know? Who are you?"

"You'll understand once you meet my boss!" the man in black said to Ding Qing with a smile.

"What if I don't go?" Ding Qing asked the man in black with a half-smile.

As they spoke, several of Ding Qing's men surrounded the man in black.

The man in black remained calm and said with certainty, "You will go!"

"I'm in a hurry, get lost!" With that, Ding Qing pushed the man in black aside and prepared to leave.

But at that moment, Ding Qing's phone suddenly rang.

On the other end of the phone came the voice of his subordinate in Shanghai: "Boss, you don't need to come over. For some reason, your logistics company's approval has been granted!"

"What? What do you mean you don't know the reason? Damn it, what nonsense are you talking about?" Ding Qing was stunned on the spot and said to his subordinates.

The subordinate excitedly said, "I inquired and found out that a very important person put in a good word, which is why they gave you the green light! We've already resumed normal operations here."

"A big shot?" Ding Qing was taken aback at first, then suddenly turned to look at the man in black.

The man in black smiled faintly and said, "Mr. Ding Qing, do you have some free time now?"

Ding Qing gave his subordinate a few perfunctory words, then hung up the phone and turned his gaze to the man in black: "Who exactly are you? Did you do what happened in Shanghai?"

"Our boss made this, please!" The man in black raised his hand in an invitation.

Ding Qing was silent for a moment, then cursed and said, "Damn it, I want to see who this guy is!"

Although Ding Qing didn't know why the other party was helping him, he didn't mind going to find out.

Anyway, this place is his territory, and he's surrounded by his people. Why would he be afraid of being assassinated?

After getting into the car, Ding Qing saw a young man extend his hand and say, "Mr. Ding? Hello, I am Chen Jiajun from Titan Group."

"Hello! Wait...you're Chen Jiajun?" Ding Qing said with some surprise, "That man who's known as the 'Godfather of Hong Kong'?"

Chen Jiajun said with a smile, "What, do I not look like it?"

"No, I'm just surprised that someone as important as Mr. Chen would want to see me!"

In that instant, many thoughts flashed through Ding Qing's mind.

And if it really is Chen Jiajun, it is indeed possible to help him settle the business in Shanghai. It's just that Ding Qing doesn't understand why Chen Jiajun would do this.

Chen Jiajun said with a smile, "I came to find you because your Jinmen Group is the biggest gang in South Korea! And I need your help with some things."

Chen Jiajun didn't have time to beat around the bush with Ding Qing and directly stated his purpose.

Ding Qing immediately became alert and said in a naive manner, "Mr. Chen, you must be joking! A big shot like you wouldn't need a nobody like me to handle things."

Don't let Ding Qing's seemingly foolish appearance fool you; he's just like a street thug.

But this is all a facade. Anyone who actually believes that the number three person in the Kinmen Group is this kind of person is just beginning to have their bad luck.

However, Chen Jiajun was not fooled by him, after all, his intelligence department had thoroughly investigated Ding Qing.

So he said calmly, "Mr. Ding is no small fry. He was the former leader of the Peking University faction and is now the third-in-command of the Kinmen Group. He controls many of the Kinmen Group's construction and logistics businesses. How could he possibly be a small fry?"

"Mr. Chen, are you investigating me?" Ding Qing immediately frowned.

Chen Jiajun shrugged and said, "After all, if I want to cooperate with you, I need to know what kind of person you are! For example, the trouble you're facing now is no small matter!"

Ding Qing feigned ignorance and said, "Trouble? What trouble could I possibly have?"

Chen Jiajun shook his head and said, "I don't have much time, so let's be frank. I know that Shi Dongchu, the boss of your Kinmen Group, recently died, and now everyone in your group is eyeing the boss's position!"

"Although you may not want to admit it, the impact of this incident is something you, as the third-in-command of the group, cannot avoid. Even if you are unwilling to compete with those within the group and fight to the death, someone will force you to fight! For example... the South Korean police!"

Upon hearing Chen Jiajun's words, Ding Qing's pupils constricted, and he stared at Chen Jiajun with disbelief, as if asking why Chen Jiajun knew so much about the Jinmen Group.

But Chen Jiajun seemed to see through his thoughts and smiled slightly, saying, "I've said before, I always need to understand my partners in advance."

Ding Qing laughed awkwardly: "Mr. Chen, what you're doing only makes me feel scared!"

Chen Jiajun laughed and said, "The leader of the Peking University sect, a guy who once took down more than a dozen people from a rival gang with just two people, would feel scared? I don't really believe it!"

Ding Qing was speechless. He hadn't expected that Chen Jiajun would know so much about his achievements when he was young.

It's like I'm completely transparent to Chen Jiajun.

"Alright, how do you want to cooperate? What do you need me to do for you?" Ding Qing resigned himself to his fate and decided to listen to Chen Jiajun's terms.

He was just thoroughly investigated by the police, and now someone else has revealed all his details.

Ding Qing felt that his team must have huge problems, so he reluctantly compromised.

Chen Jiajun said with a smile, "It's very simple. After you take the position of the head of the Jinmen Group, I need you to help me investigate an organization!"

"That's it?" Ding Qing's eyes widened.

He had originally planned to negotiate with a tiger for its skin, but he didn't expect Chen Jiajun's conditions to be so simple.

Chen Jiajun nodded and said, "That's right, it's that simple! There's no conspiracy, and I'm not interested in the South Korean underworld!"

"Can I know what kind of organization it is?" Ding Qing asked curiously.

Chen Jiajun shook his head and said, "I don't know, that's why I asked you to investigate. We are outsiders, and if we're not careful, it might cause an overreaction from the South Korean government."

Ding Qing nodded: "That makes sense, but... Mr. Chen, what kind of help can you offer me?"

Chen Jiajun immediately laughed: "Intelligence, force, money, everything you need!"

"Seeing that you just came out of the police station, I suppose the South Korean police dug up your past, right? Do you suspect that one of your subordinates is a police mole?"

Ding Qing was already numb, and helplessly said to Chen Jiajun, "Mr. Chen, you're making me even more scared!"

Chen Jiajun said with a smile, "If you're allied with me, then you have nothing to be afraid of!"

"Are there really no other additional conditions?" Ding Qing asked uncertainly.

“I have no roots in South Korea, not even any businesses. All I brought with me were a few trusted subordinates. Do you think I could possibly seize power on your turf?” Chen Jiajun retorted.

"Impossible!" Ding Qing shook his head.

Although Chen Jiajun's name sounds impressive, it cannot be separated from the basic facts.

Without any foundation, Chen Jiajun could not possibly swallow up the Kinmen Group like a snake trying to swallow an elephant.

Chen Jiajun extended his hand and said, "So... it's a pleasure working with you?"

"It's a pleasure to work with you!" Ding Qing shook hands with Chen Jiajun, then asked anxiously, "Do you know who the undercover agent next to me is? Tell me quickly."

Chen Jiajun smiled and shook his head, saying, "I'm afraid you'll find it hard to accept if I tell you!"

Ding Qing was taken aback at first, then suddenly realized something, and his face turned ugly.

Chen Jiajun slowly said, "It's Li Zicheng, the brother who has been with you for more than ten years and is also of Chinese descent."

"Impossible! You must be mistaken!" Ding Qing retorted immediately, his face pale.

Chen Jiajun snapped his fingers, and the intelligence department personnel immediately handed a document to Ding Qing.

Ding Qing immediately started flipping through the documents, and then found Li Zicheng's undercover information at the very bottom of the stack of documents.

"Damn it!" Ding Qing's forehead veins bulged after seeing the information.

He gripped the documents tightly with both hands, almost tearing them to shreds.

Seeing Ding Qing's expression, Chen Jiajun said with amusement, "Your brother of over ten years turned out to be an undercover agent. I know it must be hard for you to accept. But... if you really can't bring yourself to do it, there are other ways!"

Ding Qing immediately raised her head, looking at Chen Jiajun with surprise: "You have a way?"

Chen Jiajun laughed and said, "What's so strange about that? Compared to the Hong Kong police, your methods in South Korea are far too simplistic!" (End of Chapter)
