Hong Kong Movies: I am Hongxing, what the hell is the intelligence king?

Chapter 358 Going All In is a Great Wisdom
what? !

There's even a betting game?!
The audience, who had been sitting there for two hours watching something rather dull, suddenly became excited.

To be honest, they weren't very satisfied with tonight's betting.

When gambling masters clash, shouldn't we be watching their dazzling gambling skills?

As it turned out, Lin Feng had been going all in from the very beginning.

With just a quarter of an hour left, he surprisingly stopped going all in.

Viewers believed that Chen Jincheng was definitely holding back his anger and wanted to decide the winner in the final round.

But who would have thought that with only fifteen minutes left, Lin Feng would not go all in?

The roles were reversed, and they won decisively.

The rise of a dark horse should have been a thrilling spectacle.

But this dark horse approach... left the audience completely baffled as to what was so exciting about it, which was incredibly frustrating!
I thought tonight would just be over, but who knew there would be a gambling game.

The bet between the two sides, totaling one billion US dollars, made every spectator's eyes turn green with envy.

This is the real bet of the century.

This is truly a momentous situation.

The audience erupted in cheers!
As he climbed the mountain, he could feel the excitement of the audience around him, and he felt his blood boil.

However, deep down, he still had some worries.

"Lin Sang should not continue to gamble with Chen Jincheng."

"Lin Sangsheng won just now because of his strategy, not his technique."

"In terms of skill, Chen Jincheng is known as the Gambling Demon, ranking among the top ten in the world... no, among the top five!"

Going up the mountain was too stressful, and even his Rendanhu (a type of traditional Chinese medicine) was somewhat lacking.

"Haven't you figured it out yet? Chen Jincheng has fallen for the trap!"

As he turned back in surprise, he saw Lian Haodong's face beaming with excitement:

"I didn't lose unjustly back then!"

"He was completely controlled by Lin Sheng from beginning to end, no wonder!"

Shangshan looked at Lian Haodong with a puzzled expression:
"Lian Sang, what do you mean by this?"

Lian Haodong chuckled as he looked at the check in his hand.

This is the money I won from betting on Lin Feng's side betting.

The odds of 1 to 10 immediately brought his net worth to 50 million.

This money came too fast, faster than the money from selling cigarettes.

"Going up the mountain, haven't you understood yet?"

"Lin Sheng spent the last two hours preparing for this very bet."

what?
My brain completely shut down when I went up the mountain.

"What did you say?"

Lian Haodong remained remarkably calm, a hint of wisdom even appearing on his otherwise cold face.
"Don't you understand yet?"

"Everything Lin Sheng did was to provoke Chen Jincheng's anger."

"From beginning to end, Chen Jincheng was never able to escape Lin Sheng's scheme."

"After Lin Sheng knew he was going all in, Chen Jincheng would definitely avoid him and wait until Lin Sheng relaxed before deciding the outcome in the final round."

"That's how it is in Chen Jincheng's script."

"Who would have thought that Lin Sheng would act so unpredictably?"

"In the last three games, he actually adopted Chen Jincheng's strategy: he stopped playing."

"Chen Jincheng was known as the gambling demon. He had unparalleled gambling skills, but he was ultimately worn down by his own strategies."

"If it were you, could you tolerate it?"

After pondering for a while, he went up the mountain and said:

"I can't stand it."

"Even though my gambling skills are better than my opponent's, I couldn't make any use of them."

"I'm determined to take another gamble with him."

Lian Haodong chuckled:
"Not bad, we have to take another gamble."

"Otherwise, from now on, he will regret it so much that he won't be able to sleep every day."

He nodded repeatedly as he went up the mountain.

"That's right!"

Lian Haodong smiled:

"If it weren't for this kind of thinking, how could such a huge bet have been formed?"

"One billion US dollars... Even selling the entire Loyal Trust wouldn't be worth that much."

"Who wouldn't go crazy in that situation?"

He went up the mountain and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Even if you sold Zhongyixin, you still couldn't get this much silver.

"Chen Jincheng is a notorious old fox in the gambling world. Under normal circumstances, do you think he would participate in a gambling game that could potentially wipe out his entire fortune?"

what?
Shangshan stared at Lian Haodong in astonishment:
"You mean, this was designed by Lin Sang?"

Lian Haodong curled his lips.

"Isn't that obvious?"

"Chen Jincheng is known as the gambling demon, yet he couldn't even see through such a simple scheme."

Shangshan fell silent.

He took a deep breath and said...
"I didn't see it clearly either."

Lian Haodong glanced at Shangshan indifferently, his eyes full of contempt.

Loyal and trustworthy guys are very direct; they never hide their contempt for you.

“Lian Sang is right, but there’s a premise to all of this.”

Shangshan didn't care about Lian Haodong's gaze. He had been in Hong Kong for many years and knew all too well what kind of scum the Chung Yi Shun gang was. They were practically insane!

"That means Lin Sang's gambling skills are superior to Chen Jincheng's."

"At worst, we'll be evenly matched with him."

"Otherwise, the final result will inevitably be that Chen Jincheng will use his gambling skills to crush Lin Sang."

"Ask anyone in this hall, and they'll all agree that Lin Sang's gambling skills are inferior to Chen Jincheng's..."

They were very determined to go up the mountain.

Lin Feng is indeed very capable, but he shouldn't have continued to gamble with Chen Jincheng.

The skills of the Eight Thousand Generals require rigorous training from a young age, as well as exceptional talent.

Otherwise, don't even think about beating them.

This is his livelihood; Chen Jincheng has made his living from it all his life. His skills are no joke.

Where is Lin Feng?
It's just a hobby at most.

If you challenge someone else's livelihood by using your hobby, aren't you just asking for trouble?
Five hundred million US dollars... I hope Lin Sang won't suffer too much financial loss!

He felt no joy at seeing through everything after climbing the mountain; instead, he was filled with anxiety.

"I believe Lin Sheng can win."

Shangshan looked up in surprise at the person who spoke, only to find it was none other than his personal bodyguard, Long Wu.

"I also believe that Brother Feng can win."

Everyone who went up the mountain was dumbfounded. Who would still think Lin Feng could win?
Turning my head, I suddenly saw Da Fei, a big shot who had recently risen to prominence in Macau.

"What...right do you have?"

He went up the mountain but couldn't figure it out.

Isn't it obvious who won and who lost?

Lian Haodong and Dafei exchanged a smile, a sense of mutual appreciation evident between them.

“Mr. Shangshan, you have no idea of ​​Lin Sheng’s reputation in the martial arts world.”

"If he says we can win, then we definitely can."

“Words spoken with absolute certainty are never false.”

Everyone who went up the mountain was dumbfounded.

He really didn't expect that anyone would trust Lin Feng so much.

"But he never showed any gambling skills."

Even after Lin Feng put on a show for him, Shangshan still insisted on his own opinion.

Dafei chuckled and said:

"Then you're wrong."

"Brother Feng's skills are very high, as high as two or three stories."

"But he doesn't make a living from it, and he never shows it."

Lian Haodong asked in bewilderment:

"Then why did you gamble with me at the Dragon Head Banquet?"

Lian Haodong was just saying it casually; he never expected Dafei to know the truth. That bet back then had really screwed him over.

Who would have thought that Dafei actually knew:

"That bet... you'll have to go back and ask your boss."

Even Hao Dong's eyes widened in surprise:
"You know the truth?"

Dafei sighed:

"Sure."

“It was Kun Ge’s big banquet, and you were occupying a table all by yourself, making everyone else feel uneasy.”

"Your loyalty and integrity will eventually lead to your downfall."

Lian Haodong disagreed:
"That's our style, that's how we do things."

"Don't talk about that. I went too far, and it's normal for Lin Sheng to stop me."

"But how did this get involved with my older brother?"

Dafei shrugged:

"Your gambling habit is well-known. Your boss saw you gambling so much at Brother Kun's banquet and was afraid you would continue to gamble recklessly."

"So I asked Brother Kun to ask Brother Feng to teach you a little lesson."

Even Hao Dong's face turned pale.

So that's how it is.

Lian Haolong had mentioned this to him before, but Lian Haodong himself didn't believe it.

Now, with Dafei's testimony, the truth of the matter has been proven immediately.

Lian Haodong sighed deeply, unable to describe the feeling in his heart.

Dafei stopped talking after he finished speaking.

He's now in charge of the casino in Macau, and every day he sees nothing but gambling addicts.

After seeing so many people do this, he stopped trying to persuade them to quit gambling.

However, if any of the Hung Hing disciples in the Haojiang branch dare to gamble, Da Fei will definitely give them a good beating.

Gamblers have no future whatsoever.

Hung Hing will not accept people like that!
He keeps his distance from people who are loyal, righteous, and trustworthy; they're all a bunch of lunatics!

Shangshan looked at the two of them with a puzzled expression:

"Lian Sang, did you make a bet with Lin Sang before?"

Lian Haodong shook his head:

"Don't flatter me. I'm not qualified to gamble with Lin Sheng. That was just a small lesson for me!"

After learning the truth, he dared not compare himself to Lin Feng anymore.

Thinking back to what happened at the Dragon Head Banquet, I was really terrified.

They were completely trapped in Lin Feng's scheme from beginning to end, unable to extricate themselves, and had no power to resist whatsoever.

What hurt him most was Lin Feng's gambling skills after the game ended.

You get whatever card you want.

That's something that ordinary cheating techniques can't compare to at all.

Ultimately, cheating techniques are similar to magic tricks; they are all deceptive schemes.

But was Lin Feng's behavior at the time a lie?

Lian Haodong asked himself the same questions, pondering them again and again, but ultimately couldn't find an answer. Chen Jincheng, finally able to resume gambling as he wished, looked at Lin Feng opposite him and took a leisurely puff of his cigarette.

"Lin Sheng, do you still want to go all in?"

Lin Feng shrugged:

"Going all in requires great wisdom, and it's not something that ordinary people can master."

"You do not understand."

Chen Jincheng was almost driven mad with anger!

I've eaten more salt than you've eaten rice, and you dare say I don't understand?
What don't I understand?
But knowing that the other party was a Hung Hing boss, Chen Jincheng gritted his teeth and endured it.

"Then let's settle this with gambling skills."

He emphasized the words "gambling skills" very much.

Lin Feng shrugged:

"Then come on!"

Wave your hand,
"Dealer, please deal the cards!"

The entire room fell silent.

Lin Feng's face-up card is the 3 of spades, while Chen Jincheng's face-up card is the King of spades.

The dealer dealt another hole card to each of them.

"King of Spades, please speak."

Chen Jincheng chuckled and said:
"I'm all in."

The crowd was in an uproar.

Lin Feng looked at him with amusement:
"I told you, going all in is a great wisdom, but you can't grasp it."

Even without looking at the cards on the table, Lin Feng knew what each player's hand was. He could clearly see that Chen Jincheng's hand was an Ace of Spades, while his own was an Ace of Hearts.

Lin Feng believed that Chen Jincheng must know his trump card.

After all, he had marked all the gambling equipment.

Don't ask Lin Feng how he knows; his intelligence system can be used as a warehouse and has a search function.

Anything within a 20-meter radius is under his control.

With a quick scan, both sides' cards are laid bare.

Lin Feng glanced at the cards in the dealer's hand and immediately smiled.

It's a classic case of rivals playing against each other.

This croupier is a restless fellow too.

But that's perfect!
"I'll follow!"

The crowd whispered amongst themselves.

I thought this bet would take several hours, but I never expected it would be decided in a single round.

So exciting!

The real excitement is yet to come.

The dealer deals the cards in turn.

Lin Feng's face-up cards were all spades: 2, 3, 4, and 5.
Chen Jincheng's face-up cards were all King, Queen, Jack, and 10 of spades!

Definitely a case of rivals playing the game!

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Everyone tensed up; the key was to see who had the last card.

Chen Jincheng said with a smile:
"Lin Sheng, you're lucky, but I'm even luckier."

My trump card is the Ace of Spades!

He turned over his hole card, and there it was—the Ace of Spades!
"Accepted!"

Chen Jincheng smiled smugly.

Young people are just like that; they should know when to quit while they're ahead, but they dare to keep betting against themselves.

Isn't this just handing money over to yourself?
Then I'll gladly accept it!
But I dare not say such things out loud.

The other party is the youngest boss in Hung Hing. There's no guarantee that my words won't provoke him. If he doesn't want me to leave, there's no use running away.

I almost collapsed on the way up the mountain:

"We lost as expected!"

Five hundred million US dollars!

"I'm so sorry, Lin Sang."

The audience let out a collective sigh.

Both of them got a straight flush.

It can be said that whoever gets the Ace of Spades wins.

Now that the Ace of Spades is in Chen Jincheng's hands, Lin Feng has no chance of turning the tide.

They originally wanted to see Lin Feng completely wicked, but they ended up failing.

The gambling addict is still the gambling addict.

Lian Haodong and Dafei exchanged a glance, both puzzled:
"impossible!"

"How could Lin Sheng lose?"

He climbed up the mountain in despair:
"The cards have already been played, how could it be fake?"

Lian Haodong said seriously:

"The bet isn't over yet, Lin Sheng won't lose."

Those loyal and trustworthy guys are really sick.

Chen Jincheng's trump card is the Ace of Spades, so it doesn't matter whether Lin Feng reveals his hand or not.

And yet, he still believes Lin Feng can win?

He's seriously ill.

Chen Jincheng said with a smile:
"Judge, may we announce the winner of the bet now?"

Just as the judge was about to announce the result of the bet, Lin Feng smiled:

"I haven't revealed my hand yet."

"Five hundred million US dollars, we should at least see their cards, right?"

Chen Jincheng shrugged:

"up to you!"

The judge of the gambling world nodded:
"Of course we can reveal our hand."

Lin Feng then said:

"I haven't seen the hole cards at all during this game, and I haven't even touched the cards, so I don't want to break the rules."

"How about this, Judge, you help me open it?"

"Mr. Chen won't object, will he?"

Chen Jincheng naturally wouldn't object.

He found it funny.

More than two hours have passed, and Lin Feng hasn't even seen his trump card yet, which is simply unbelievable.

Even at the very last moment, he still wouldn't touch the cards and wanted the judge to open them for him?

How can there be such a gambler in the world?
Oh, so the other person isn't a gambler but a gangster? Then it's alright.

Chen Jincheng wasn't worried at all about what cards the judge would play; he hadn't cheated this round.

He arranged it well in advance.

The real skill lies outside of the gambling game, so what's there to say?

Even the judges of the gambling world are helpless.

Having hosted gambling events for so many years, this is the first time I've seen something so bizarre.

It's one thing to not look at your hole cards for over two hours straight, but you actually want to look at them in a bet you're guaranteed to lose?
It's understandable that they're unwilling to accept it.

The question is, why should I drive it myself?

After thinking about the other party's identity—a Hung Hing boss, someone he couldn't afford to offend!

Anyway, there were no surprises. Since it's open, let's just give the Hung Hing boss face. Qianmen is also a member of the underworld; we might need to ask him for help in the future.

It's just a trivial matter.

The judge casually dealt the cards, about to declare Chen Jincheng the winner, when suddenly he was dumbfounded.

The audience shouted:

"The Ace of Spades, Lin Sheng's trump card is the Ace of Spades!"

How can there be two Aces of Spades in a deck of cards?

The mountain climber, who had been slumped on the ground, suddenly stood up, both surprised and delighted:
"What's happening here?"

Lian Haodong swung his fist hard:

"I told you long ago, Lin Sheng will win!"

Chen Jincheng, who had been so confident of victory, almost dropped his glasses. His face was blank, and he blurted out:

"How could it be the Ace of Spades? His trump card is clearly the Ace of Hearts!"

"You cheated!"

Chen Jincheng was speaking to the judge of the gambling world, not to Lin Feng.

The gambling judge blushed and raised his hands:

"I specifically wore a short-sleeved shirt for this bet, so tell me, how am I supposed to cheat?"

Where should I put the cards?

Chen Jincheng was speechless.

clap clap clap!
Lin Feng clapped his hands from the side:
"I've always been very lucky, and I believe in my luck."

"But how can there be two Aces of Spades in a deck of cards?"

"Judge, you need to carefully examine both sides' cards!"

The judge of the gambling world suddenly realized the truth:

"The betting between the two parties involved a total of one billion US dollars."

"This is a serious matter, we definitely need to check the license plate!"

If we don't investigate this thoroughly, his reputation will be ruined.

Chen Jincheng shouted:

"Yes, check the license plate!"

Lin Feng clapped his hands and said:
"Check my cards first."

"I haven't touched a single card all night."

The judge immediately examined Lin Feng's cards, and the suits and colors matched.

So he went to check Chen Jincheng's cards.

One is fine, two are fine, three are fine, and the fourth is still fine.

Chen Jincheng has a particularly bad temper:

"If any mistakes are made because of your staff, I will not forgive you."

That's five hundred million US dollars!
Who would be willing to accept that?
The judge of the gambling world was sweating. If that were to happen, he would lose face in front of the whole world.

The fifth card is Chen Jincheng's hole card, which is the Ace of Spades.

As soon as the cards were turned over, the judge of the gambling table gave Chen Jincheng a deep look:
"They actually cheated right in front of our judges!"

"I hereby declare Lin Feng the winner of the bet!"

There was an uproar among the crowd.

Chen Jincheng was even more stunned:
"How can this be?"

The cards used in the gambling game have a gold back and irregular patterns.

However, Chen Jincheng's trump card was surprisingly blue.

Lin Feng sighed:

"Nine out of ten gambling games are scams, and it's true."

"You dared to cheat on such an important occasion?"

"You are dead!"

Chen Jincheng was completely stunned and shouted:
"I didn't cheat!"

However, everyone saw that his cards were wrong; he had indeed cheated!
