Hong Kong Movies: You Hongxingzi, what the hell is the charity king?

Chapter 471 "470" Guan Zu's trip to the United States, the biggest riot in Los Angeles history!
Kai Tak Airport,

Guan Zu, Fang Ting, Gong Wei, and Li Wanqiang passed the security check, entered the terminal hall, and waited for the plane.

Not long after,
The flight to Jinshan International Airport has started checking in and boarding.

Boarding gate,

Guan Zu held Fang Ting's hand and walked in front, while Gong Wei and Li Wanqiang followed behind.

suddenly,

A beautiful woman rushed out and bumped into Guan Zu a bit violently.

"sorry Sorry!"

The beauty apologized quickly.

"Hey, Mr. Guan..."

Guan Zu looked at the person who was apologizing in front of him, stunned.

Who is this?
Zhong Qihong?
Guan Zu smiled and nodded: "It's okay."

This time, Guan Zu went to San Francisco to acquire a TV station.

Because it is quite important, Guan Zu has to go there in person.

……

In a flash, 15 hours later.

"The despicable thief who stole the country has entered San Francisco!" -America.

Jinshan International Airport,

The plane landed,

Guan Zu and other three people walked out of the airport gate.

"Brother Zu!"*4
Xiaofu, Wang Jianjun, Ji Shaoqun and a few of their younger brothers hurriedly greeted Guan Zu respectfully after seeing him.

There was also a conspicuous black Chevrolet parked on the side of the road.

When a few young men from San Francisco saw Guan Zu, they were shocked and were slapped on the back of their heads by Wang Jianjun.

"Call the boss!"

"Hi boss!"

This boss is too young.

When Guan Zu and others left the airport gate, they saw the beautiful woman (Li Qi) and the contact person who was going to pick them up - Chuan Tou Chi (Zhou Runfa).

Li Qi looked at the bow ruler in front of him and fell into self-doubt.

The contact person Chuan Tou Chi, whom Li Qi's aunt introduced to her, was a successful man. However, he had an untidy beard and was inappropriately dressed. Moreover, the car that picked him up was... tattered. Even the door was broken and couldn't be closed. It had to be locked manually, which meant that Li Qi held the door to prevent it from opening (laughing and crying·jpg).

Just at this moment, Guan Zu and everyone else came out.

"Hey, we meet again~~~"

"Mr. Guan!"

Guan Zu said hello to Li Qi and took Fang Ting into the black Chevrolet.

Soon, the black Chevrolet, followed by two black Mercedes-Benz, quickly left.

Chuan Tou Chi looked at the black Chevrolet curiously: "Who is he?"

Li Qi said: "A very famous boss in Hong Kong Island."

Chuan Tou Chi: "Does he know you?"

Li Qi: "We met when we were boarding the plane... Wait, what does this have to do with you!"

Li Qi glared at Chuan Tou Chi.

The boatman smiled.

The so-called "bow ruler" is the common name for the crew members who are responsible for commanding and controlling the direction at the bow of the ship. These people are usually experienced and familiar with the water conditions and sailing skills.

The reason why Chuan Tou Chi got the nickname "Chuan Tou Chi" is that he is very familiar with Los Angeles, especially the Chinese area, and can be said to know everything.

He didn't know Guan Zu, but he knew the man who was standing respectfully next to Guan Zu - Xiao Fu.

This is the owner of Umbrella Real Estate Company in San Francisco.

This umbrella company has been making a big splash in San Francisco recently, gaining a lot of support from the Chinese people and making a huge splash.

Their strength is no weaker than that of the Huaqing Gang and the Hongmen.

After Guan Zu, Li Qi and others drove away,

A short boy named Bao Ge (Zeng Zwei) and a woman named Li Qiao (Zhang Miyu) walked out of the airport and looked around at the airport gate.

This situation immediately attracted the attention of the three Chinese.

Bros,
Newbie here!

The three Chinese came over, and the leader was very enthusiastic: "Brother, are you looking for..."

Brother Leopard: "Futai!"

The Chinese man quickly said, "I am Fu Tai..."

Fu Tai quickly called his two younger brothers over: "Why don't you help me get the things!"

Brother Bao quickly pulled him back and said with a smile, "Brother, you don't have to take the things."

Fu Tai smiled and said, "It's okay! We are all Chinese, we should help each other when we are abroad."

Younger brother: "Yes, Chinese people don't cheat Chinese people!"

Brother Bao smiled and said, "Brothers, I have been in the United States for many years. I don't know whether Chinese people cheat Chinese people or not."

Futai and brothers: “…………”

Damn, I met an old Chinese man!

They left in disappointment and continued to look for their next target.

Many people feel that Chinese Americans are like a big cesspool.

Rumor has it that every Chinese who has just arrived in the United States, or in Los Angeles or California, will be bullied or deceived, or even physically harmed, by local older immigrants and overseas Chinese.

Moreover, there is great disunity!

At least, in Brother Bao's eyes, the Chinese community is like this.

Therefore, the three people in front of me welcomed me so warmly, they definitely wanted to steal my luggage.

Puniam!

……

……

Umbrella Property Company.

A black Chevrolet stopped in front of the company building.

At the door, everyone had lined up and was waiting.

Except for the guys from Hong Kong Island, the other Chinese guys looked at Guan Zu curiously as he got out of the car.

Gold-rimmed glasses, handsome temperament!

Calm and majestic!
Well, and also friendliness (a reflection of approval rating).

"This is your boss, call him boss!"

"Boss!"
Among them, the younger brothers from Hong Kong Island were extremely admiring and enthusiastic, their voices were particularly loud and excited!
Guan Zu smiled and nodded to everyone: "Hello everyone!"

Then I talked to the Chinese guy and asked him, "How many people are there in your family?", "Are you having any problems?", "Have you gone to school?", "Work hard, the future is yours."...

Every younger brother felt: The boss is so kind!
Went upstairs.

Held a small meeting.

Xiao Fu took the map and gave Guan Zu a brief introduction to the situation in San Francisco.

"San Francisco has a population of 81, of which 18 are Chinese."

"Currently, we are located in Chinatown in San Francisco, where 40% of the Chinese population in San Francisco live."

(Figure: Ethnic distribution map of San Francisco)
"We have basically won the support of half of the Chinese in San Francisco."

"In addition, we have already taken over the Jinshan Times. Now we finally have our own five-star propaganda platform."

The meeting ended in more than 20 minutes, and then Xiaofu took Guan Zu and the others to the hotel to adjust to the jet lag.

This time, Guan Zu came to discuss the acquisition of a TV station.

The TV station acquired is KTSF.

Founded in 1976, it is the earliest multilingual television station in the San Francisco area that serves mainly Asian immigrants.

The parent company is Lincoln Broadcasting Company.

Lincoln Broadcasting Company recognized the unique needs of the Asian community in terms of information acquisition and cultural entertainment, and thus established and strongly supported KTSF.

Today, the station covers more than 10 million Asian Americans in 140 counties in the San Francisco Bay Area and provides broadcasting services to many families in Northern California.

Its main channel currently broadcasts mainly Cantonese and Chinese programs during the prime time from 7pm to 10pm, with Japanese, Vietnamese and Filipino programs available at other times.

correct,

It has cooperation with ATV.

This time, Guan Zu is here to buy it.

Television stations and newspapers have always been Guan Zu’s main means of publicity.

When I woke up, it was already daytime the next day.

Fang Ting took Guan Zu's hand and shook it, saying, "The acquisition will not start until tomorrow...why don't we go around San Francisco!" Coming here, she relaxed a lot. It was no longer like when she was in Hong Kong Island, where she never dared to reveal their relationship in front of outsiders.

Guan Zu smiled: "Let's go!"

It can't be a wasted trip, after all, this is a famous international tourist destination, at least for Chinese people.

The first stop of the tour is the Golden Gate Bridge.

From afar, the iconic red bridge spans the Kinmen Strait.

This bridge is the most destroyed bridge in Hollywood movies. The part that impressed Guan Zu the most was the one where Magneto directly pulled the Golden Gate Bridge up into the air.

After leaving the Golden Gate Bridge, they went to Fisherman's Wharf, Lombardy Street, Alcatraz Island, Twin Peaks, and finally returned to Chinatown.

……

a new day,
Formal negotiations with Lincoln Broadcasting Company to acquire Universal Television began.

"1 million US dollars? No no no... it's too expensive. You are simply greedy!"

"You are Chinese, and our Universal Television is the most watched TV station among Chinese Americans."

"It's so funny. They only cover less than 140 million Asians. How dare you say they cover the most?"

After five days of negotiations, the talks finally broke down.

Guan Zu felt that the other white boss, Lincoln, was a bit greedy, and wanted 5000 million at most, even though he wanted 1 million. They thought that Guan Zu and his group were Chinese, so they would naturally want a TV station targeting Chinese people.

But Lincoln misjudged Guan Zu.

Guan Zu’s target is not just the Chinese. The reason for negotiating with Universal Television is that he has cooperation with Asia Television and has bought many programs from Asia Television.

Since they couldn't reach an agreement, Guan Zu turned to talk to other TV stations.

quickly,

Guan Zu negotiated an acquisition with KTVU (San Francisco Bay Area TV station).

It is an influential TV station in the San Francisco Bay Area, focusing on news reports and local programs. It occupies an important position in the local news market and can provide timely and comprehensive coverage of various major events.

In the future, he will be acquired by Fox and become a member of the Juvenile Detroit publicity camp.

For Guan Zu, this TV station meets his needs better than Universal TV, covers a wider range of people, and is in line with the future positioning of Umbrella Corporation.

It took 20 days.
7 month 25 day,
KTVU TV station building, conference room.

The two parties signed a contract, and Guan Zu officially obtained the ownership of KTVU TV station.

The Five Star Group has taken a new step in the United States!
……

meeting room.

The new boss convened a high-level meeting and listened to various reports from the TV station.

"boss."

"There is a case that has attracted the attention of the entire United States. The trial will begin tomorrow..."

“Maybe we should focus the news there.”

"What case?"

"The Black Rodney King case!"

When Guan Zu, who was listening in, heard this, he immediately became excited.

Los Angeles riots!
The cause was that on March 1991, 3, Rodney King, a black man, drove drunk and recklessly at a speed of nearly 3 miles per hour in Los Angeles, and female patrol officer Singh drove in pursuit. Rodney King ran away, which triggered a car-racing drama between patrol officers and him on the highway, and he was eventually subdued. When he was arrested, Rodney King was beaten by four white policemen in turn. The whole process was filmed and the tape was given to a TV station, which cut out the beginning and the end of the video to highlight the innocence of the black man being beaten.

As soon as the news was broadcast, black people all over the United States were shocked, and four white police officers were arrested. Rodney King also took the opportunity to extort 4 to million US dollars from the Los Angeles police.

Now, more than a year later, the trial of the four white police officers has finally begun.

Originally, the trial was supposed to be held two months ago, but it has been delayed until now. Is this the butterfly effect?
Of course, the focus is not on the trial, but on the consequences of the trial.

After the trial, the four white police officers were eventually acquitted.

After the news was broadcast, black gangs in Los Angeles went on a riot, doing traditional activities like buying things for free, burning down stores, and killing people... The Latinos didn't kill or burn, they just robbed, their main goal was to fish in troubled waters...

In the end, the army was dispatched to suppress the riots. In Los Angeles alone, more than 2 people lost their jobs, 58 people died, 2383 people were injured, 1.9 people were arrested and 6000 were sentenced. More than 3000 buildings were burned or destroyed.

The funniest thing is that among those arrested, the most arrested were Latinos who instigated the commotion, accounting for 60%, while blacks and whites only accounted for more than 30%.

San Francisco, which is not far from Los Angeles, has also been greatly affected. The poorest and most chaotic African and Latino people have impacted many places.

Originally, Guan Zu was going to take it back, but since there was something exciting to watch, of course Guan Zu didn't want to leave.

And there was a chance to shoot.

God have pity on him, he has never properly fired a gun in his life!

……

7 month 26 day,
Guan Zu sent Fang Ting on the plane back to Hong Kong Island.

That morning,
After the trial in the Los Angeles court, the judge solemnly pronounced: "This court has conducted a comprehensive and detailed investigation and deliberation in accordance with legal procedures. This court believes that the prosecution has failed to provide conclusive evidence that excludes reasonable doubt to prove that the four defendant police officers committed a crime in the course of performing their duties in the law enforcement of Rodney King..."

Following Guan Zu's instructions, Xiao Fu spent a large sum of money, took a camera, found the one hundred black people he had rescued, gave them generous deposits and rewards, and flew to Los Angeles.

A new TV station needs this kind of big news.

Around 16 p.m., gang members began smashing stores on Florence Avenue and Haldale Avenue, and a Korean store was robbed.

Around 17 p.m., eight black men hit the windows of passing vehicles with baseball bats on the avenue about 100 meters away from the Korean store, attacked two white people, and threw stones and beer bottles at other drivers.

At 18 p.m., the crowd near Florence and Normandy Avenues in South-central Los Angeles increased, and the two dozen police officers on duty retreated.

Around 18:30, hundreds of demonstrators gathered outside the Parker Center, the police headquarters in downtown Los Angeles.

Then... they wanted to attack the police headquarters, but were shot down by the white man and fled in all directions.

At around 18 p.m., looting and rioting officially began, and demonstrators began burning buildings in South-central Los Angeles.

The police quickly ran to the wealthy area to protect the rich masters.

As for other areas?

Don’t care!

At around 19 p.m., rioters from Florence and Normandy began setting fires, including two nearby auto repair shops, a gas station, a TV repair shop, a pastor's house and a church restaurant.

Police received the first fire call around 7:45 p.m., and the arsonists had dispersed by the time police cars arrived. At the same time, looting and arson began to occur throughout South Central Los Angeles.

……

……

quickly,

KTVU, the best prepared TV station, provided full and comprehensive coverage based on photos brought back by more than 100 black people.

"Dear TV viewers..."

"Since the acquittal of the four white police officers in the Rodney King case, the situation in Los Angeles has deteriorated dramatically."

"Our cameras captured the chaotic scene on Florence and Haldale avenues this afternoon..."

"Hundreds of demonstrators quickly gathered outside the Parker Center, the police headquarters in downtown Los Angeles. They chanted slogans and tried to storm the police headquarters. The police immediately took tough measures and gunshots were heard at the scene..."

"Looting and rioting spread rapidly throughout the city..."

"At night, looting and rioting spread rapidly throughout the city. Demonstrators began burning buildings, and the raging fire lit up the night sky and billowed thick smoke..."

"The police quickly rushed to the wealthy area..."

Because there are so many photos...

The video is really...

This caused the ratings of KTVU TV station to rise rapidly.

When the TV station staff saw this, they were full of admiration for their boss.

……

……

At this time,
Here in San Francisco,
Those African-American and Latino gangs,
The African-American black guerrillas, the Latin American Yankee Gang, the Red Fire Ant Gang, the MS13... these gangs are all ready to take action after seeing the news.

Zero dollar purchase!

Grab money!
And I have an excuse!
Black Guerrilla, warehouse meeting point,

The big boss stood on the roof of the car, holding a gun in his hand.
"Bros!"

"Look at what happened in Los Angeles! Our black brother Rodney King was wantonly beaten by those white policemen, but now? Those violent policemen were acquitted! Is there any justice in this? This is a blatant provocation and unfair treatment of our entire ethnic group! Can we swallow this?"

"We have always lived at the bottom of this city, suffering discrimination. We are not given good jobs and fair treatment."

"Today, we can no longer remain silent! The brothers in Los Angeles have already taken action. They are fighting for their rights. Are we just going to stand by and watch? No, we want to let those high and mighty people know that we are not soft persimmons that can be bullied by others!"

"Pick up the weapons in your hands and rush out! This is not robbery, this is the compensation we deserve! The wealth in those stores originally belonged to us! We must avenge our brothers and fight for our own dignity!"

"fighting!"

"fighting!"

"fighting!"

Warm atmosphere.

At this time, a younger brother asked curiously: "Boss, who should we rob?"

Big Boss: "Go to Chinatown!"

Younger brother: "Ah? Why are we robbing the Chinese? Shouldn't we rob the white people?"

The big boss: "You are stupid. Most of the white people have guns...but what about the Chinese? They don't have many guns, they are weak and can be bullied, and they are scattered and have no unity at all..."

"Also, have you forgotten that our good deeds have been ruined many times by that Chinese umbrella company during this period, causing us to suffer a lot of losses..."
