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

Chapter 375 Lin Feng's Another Big Project
Big Circle Leopard kept his word. When Lin Feng woke up the next day, Li Fu had already come to report:
"Brother Feng, the people from our hometown have arrived."

"It didn't go through customs; it was split into two parts."

"Some came by water, and some came over the mountains."

“The brothers are all exhausted, and I have arranged for them to rest at Thunder Building.”

Although Thunder Building serves as Thunder Security's work platform, it actually functions as a place for accommodation and training.

Arranging for a thousand people shouldn't be a problem.

Lin Feng frowned slightly:

"They came here illegally?"

Li Fu sighed:

"I asked Brother Leopard, and he said you need time."

Lin Feng shook his head.

Big Circle Leopard meant well but did something wrong.

People from my hometown can pass through normally; there's no need for smuggling.

This gives people something to talk about for no reason.

Lin Feng immediately said:
"Have Jiang Chengyu arrange identities for them."

"Take the proper procedures."

"In times of chaos, we must not lose our core support."

Li Fu agreed.

“A thousand people in the Thunder Building would be too conspicuous. Let the veteran team members take them to Hong Kong in batches.”

"Do not."

"Have Tianhong arrange for someone to take them shopping."

"Hong Kong isn't big; you can get used to it in two or three days."

Li Fu wrote everything down, and finally said...
"Brother Feng, how about we take notes while we work?"

"Thunder has a lot of orders, and we need manpower."

Lin Feng thought for a moment and then shook his head:

"Just let the people from Tianhong take over. These people will be very useful in the future, and their backgrounds must be clean."

Li Fu was taken aback:
"You're bringing so many people to make a quick buck, aren't you?"

Lin Feng sighed:

"I didn't know Brother Leopard could act so quickly."

"Normally speaking, how could a mineral water plant be built in less than a few months?"

"Who would have thought my hometown would be so welcoming?"

"They just bought a newly built factory for me?"

"Plans can't keep up with changes."

"Things have changed, so I naturally have to change my plans accordingly."

"The water station matter needs to be brought forward."

Li Fu said in astonishment:
"Is it really just selling water?"

Lin Feng shrugged:

“This is a huge market.”

"I have no intention of drinking that distilled water."

The water in Xiangjiang Reservoir is hard to describe in a few words; ultimately, it relies on the water of the Dongjiang River.

I don't know which link in the chain went wrong, but even though it's the same water source, the taste is very different in different areas of Hong Kong.

Hong Kong people don't usually drink bottled water; that stuff isn't widely available.

They were drinking distilled water.

It is touted as the cleanest water source.

"Isn't distilled water good?" Li Fu was very puzzled.

Lin Feng casually said:
"No water plant in the world dares to sell distilled water directly to consumers."

Li Fu was taken aback:
"why?"

Lin Feng shrugged:

"It will kill people!"

Li Fu was startled:
"Brother Feng, isn't this a bit of an exaggeration?"

Lin Feng shook his head:
"It's not an exaggeration. The human body needs water, but it needs the trace minerals that water carries even more."

"All commercial water in the world, as long as it is ingested, has a certain amount of additives added at the time of leaving the factory."

"It's mainly minerals."

"That's why some water tastes bitter while others taste sweet."

"Pure water has no taste; the factors that affect the taste are determined by minerals."

Li Fu was stunned.

Lin Feng smiled and said:
"What's added to a water plant can't compare to what nature produces?"

"It's time to give the people of Hong Kong a shock with water."

Li Fu was skeptical.

Lin Feng laughed and scolded:
"What's your expression?"

"Have you forgotten the sweet well water from your hometown because you've been in Hong Kong for so long?"

Li Fu shook his head and said:
"The well water in my hometown hasn't been sweet lately either."

"I don't know why, but it tastes a bit astringent when I drink it."

"On the contrary, when I was a child, no, five years ago, the well water was very sweet."

Lin Feng fell silent for a moment, then spoke:

"Is your hometown doing well?"

Li Fu nodded:
"Yes, many factories have been built near my hometown, and the villagers have a bright future."

Lin Feng sighed:

"This is groundwater contamination."

"The price of development!"

Li Fu was taken aback.

Lin Feng briefly recounted the story, and Li Fu immediately became anxious upon hearing it:

"I'll call home in a bit and tell my mom and the others to drink bottled water."

Li Fu was a little embarrassed.
"Because of Brother Feng, I got a telephone line installed at home."

"too expensive!"

Lin Feng laughed heartily:

"You work diligently, and you deserve all the rewards."

"The advanced services in my hometown are indeed very expensive now, and only a few people can afford them."

"It will be better if it develops in the future."

Lin Feng has experience with this kind of thing.

At this time in his previous life, Lin Feng was one of the few people who could make phone calls.

Back then, telephones weren't automated; you had to be transferred by an operator.

Just as automatic dialers were becoming widespread across the country, mobile phones emerged.

Landlines are basically no longer used.

Thinking about it, I still feel a sense of disorientation.

Take mobile phone expenses as an example. Nowadays, we don't spend much money on phone calls each month. But when mobile phones were first introduced in my hometown, it cost 20,000 yuan to get a mobile phone number and a data plan.

That was 20,000 back in the 1990s!

In reality, that thing costs less than a thousand.

But mobile phones are very expensive.

Back then, mobile phones were truly a luxury item for the wealthy, completely irrelevant to ordinary people.

The mobile company is ruthless; they prey on these rich people.

It is thanks to the efforts of these people that subsequent mobile costs have been reduced.

This can be considered, to some extent, a case of the rich helping the poor.

After Lin Feng finished speaking, Li Fu's expression was priceless:

"I don't feel honored at all..."

Lin Feng shrugged:

"You should think of it this way: the money you're spending is buying glory and status."

You have what others don't.

"They are naturally different from ordinary people."

"That vanity is enough to satisfy you."

Li Fu shook his head:
"I don't want this vanity."

Lin Feng was speechless. He had almost forgotten that when Li Fugang was with him, the kid was so frugal that he could wear his socks for a year by patching them up.

"Has the water arrived?"

Li Fu nodded:
"coming!"

"That's Binney's style."

"I heard we encountered the water police, but they came up to check and saw it was just water, so they let us through."

Lin Feng smiled and said:
"Hong Kong relies on the resources of its hometown, especially food."

"If they dare to intercept these ships, they'd better watch out and get ambushed."

Li Fu kicked a bottle over.

“I guessed that Brother Feng needed water, so I brought some too.”

Lin Feng pointed to the cup.

Li Fuli landed and poured himself a cup.

Lin Feng took a bite and finished it in one gulp.

He then pointed to the cup.

The water was full, and he drank it all in one gulp.

This was done three times.

Li Fu was stunned:
"Brother Feng, isn't this a bit much?"

It's just a glass of water.
Lin Feng glanced at him and smiled:

"Why don't you try it yourself?"

Li Fu dismissed it, thinking, "It's just a glass of water."
He poured himself a glass, took a casual sip, and was immediately taken aback.

He gulped it down in one go.

Li Fu's expression was very complicated:
"This is real water!"

What kind of stuff does he usually drink?

"You've been in Hong Kong for too long and have forgotten what sweet water tastes like."

Lin Feng joked with a smile.

Li Fu could only manage a wry smile.

Lin Feng clapped his hands:
"Let's bring a few gallons of water and head to the film set."

Li Fu immediately made arrangements.

In the car, Lin Feng said:

"The units of measurement in my hometown are different from those in Hong Kong."

“Our market is mainly in Hong Kong. Let’s call Binney and ask him to use Hong Kong’s units of measurement.”

Binni returned home a few days ago, and before he could properly confess his feelings to Thirteen Sister, he went back to his hometown.

There's no other way; the point of being in this business is to make money.

Now that the opportunity to make big money is right in front of us, we can't afford to be sentimental.

This wasn't Liang Kun exploiting him. Liang Kun, Shui Ling, and Lin Feng all wanted to create an opportunity for Binni to confess his feelings. It was Binni himself who thought making money was more important and took the initiative to put the matter aside.

Liang Kun and the others had no choice but to respect Binni's opinion.

Li Fu agreed.

Upon arriving at the film set, Lin Feng took a closer look and nodded in satisfaction.

This time, no one dared to block their film set again.

Liang Kun said to Lin Feng:
"This chubby kid is quick; it's only been a few days, and the story is almost finished being filmed."

"It's almost as fast as when I was filming erotic movies."

Lin Feng was speechless.

Leung Kwan's erotic films aren't just pure porn; they also have storylines.

Of course, don't expect the storylines in Category III films to be particularly sophisticated.

We'll spend an hour filming the dialogue scenes first, and then a whole day filming the action scenes.

The focus of adult films is on action scenes, so they require the most time to polish them.

"I'm finding the chubby kid more and more pleasing to the eye. How about we get him to film a few erotic movies at Qiankun Film Studio?"

"I just don't know if the little fat boy is willing."

"Directors like them are quite ambitious; they're cultured people." "Brother Kun is an old-school scoundrel, and erotic films are naturally one of his scoundrels."

Of course, pornographic films are not accepted by society and can only be watched secretly by oneself.

In the directors' hierarchy of disdain, erotic films definitely rank after commercial films.

"Don't worry, Brother Kun, Fatty will definitely go."

Lin Feng skillfully pulled a box of cigars off Liang Kun and lit one for himself with satisfaction.

Liang Kun was already numb and didn't care at all about Lin Feng's "stealing" behavior. He asked curiously:
"I think this chubby kid's skills are pretty good. Is he really going to go to Qiankun Film Studio to shoot erotic films?"
Lin Feng smiled and said:

"The little fat boy's father is the famous TV director Wang, so he comes from a family with a strong academic background."

"But don't worry, that chubby guy isn't a decent person. He's a womanizer, he'll definitely take the pictures."

Liang Kun nodded immediately.

"Alright, I'll have the chubby kid film a few later."

Lin Feng asked in bewilderment:
"Brother Kun, do you have time to make erotic films?"

Handsome Kun shook his head:
"I wanted to see what level of filming the chubby kid could produce."

"Given my current status, why would I need to make pornographic films?"

"We can't even finish our legitimate business."

Lin Feng was stunned:

"You mean, you want to appreciate it yourself?"

Lam Kwan nodded:
"Yes, just for your own enjoyment."

Lin Feng asked:

"What would your sister-in-law think if she saw this?"

Liang Kun was stunned.

He unconsciously held his lower back.

Why bring her up if you have nothing better to do?

Lin Feng exclaimed in astonishment:
"Boss, are you out of your mind?"

"You're the kind of person who always carries three to five fire extinguishers with you, how could this happen?"

"I'm annoyed," said Liang Kun.

"Thirty is like a wolf, forty is like a tiger..."

"Your sister-in-law is no ordinary person!"

"Actually, that's not the point."

Lin Feng asked with amusement:
"So what's the key point?"

Liang Kun sighed:
"Your sister-in-law wants a child."

"Except for those few days, he would torment me almost every night."

"They won't stop until they've squeezed every last drop out of me."

Lin Feng looked at him with pity:
"Boss, I've told you before, I'll tell you to get married and have kids..."

Young Kun was enraged:
"Go away, go away, you have no manners!"

If it were someone else, like Chen Yao or Binni, making fun of him, Liang Kun wouldn't be so embarrassed and annoyed.

Lin Feng is different.

Those were his brothers who he had watched grow up, so naturally there was a different feeling involved.

"Brother Kun, I have a new project. Would you like to invest?"

Liang Kun was taken aback:
"What project?"

Lin Feng shrugged:

"Water for sale!"

Liang Kun asked in surprise:
"You're only interested in this small amount of money?"

Lin Feng asked in bewilderment:
"Selling water is a big business, and you're saying it's small change?"

Johnny's mouth dropped open:

"Selling water can be a big business?"

Lin Feng sighed:
"I always say that as long as you have enough customers, you can become a tycoon by selling water."

Liang Kun disagreed:

"That's just something you said offhand. How could someone selling water become the richest person?"

"Besides, it's just water."

"Hong Kong has it too."

"Since the reservoir was built, the water shortage is not as severe as before..."

"Why do you have to sell water of all things? Will anyone buy it?"

Snapped!
Lin Feng snapped his fingers.

Li Fu immediately poured Liang Kun a glass of water and respectfully handed it to him.

Liang Kun was even more surprised:

"Are you serious?"

Lin Feng asked, puzzled:
"Do you think I'd fake it?"

"Boss, let me tell you, I've taken care of everything else."

"We're just waiting to launch it on the market."

Liang Kun looked at Lin Feng with a puzzled expression, then looked at the water in the cup, took a sip, and his eyes lit up immediately.

"Continued Cup."

Li Fu suddenly felt that the scene was very familiar.

One cup after another, one cup after another.

It wasn't until Liang Kun's belly grew big and he let out a loud burp that he stopped.

Liang Kun, still reluctantly holding his water glass, launched into a tirade against Lin Feng:

"What kind of stuff was I drinking before?!"

Lin Feng smiled:
"Boss, I wasn't lying to you, was I? This is what real water looks like!"

Liang Kun asked:

"How much does a bottle of this cost?"

"piece?"

Lin Feng asked in surprise:
How could you insult this bottle of water like that?

"Such delicious water, of course it should cost three yuan."

Luckily, Leung Kwan didn't choke to death.

"The salary of a white-collar worker is only three thousand now."

"You sell a bottle of water for three yuan?"

"What are you thinking?"

"So, they can only buy a thousand bottles of water after working for a month?"

Lin Feng shrugged:

"This water is sold in convenience stores, and it costs three yuan a bottle, no bargaining."

"We want to sell three-gallon or five-gallon bottles of water."

Handsome Kun frowned and said:
"How much will that cost?"

Lin Feng smiled and said:
"Three gallons of water cost thirty-three dollars, and five gallons of water cost fifty dollars!"

Liang Kun's eyes widened:

"Would anyone actually buy this?"

Lin Feng said seriously:
"This is a highly profitable industry."

"I plan to set up several water stations in the eighteen districts of Hong Kong."

"Don't say that your brother doesn't take care of you; a franchised water station is worth 100,000."

"How much do you want?"

Liang Kun's eyes were somewhat unfocused:
"Ah Feng, you have so many businesses, there's no need to focus on such petty profits, is there?"

Lin Feng chuckled coldly:

"A pittance?"

You'll find out in less than three days.

"Boss, do you want some?"

Handsome Kun frowned and said:
"You really think this business is a good one?"

Lin Feng said speechlessly:
"This is a big deal..."

"If it weren't for my brotherhood and my desire to help you guys out, I wouldn't have bothered saying anything."

How much does a franchise station cost?

"Can't I take care of everything myself?"

Upon hearing this, Liang Kun immediately said:
"Then I want twenty franchise stations."

Lin Feng looked around and said, "Why don't we go to the Hall of Righteousness and talk about it?"

Handsome Kun was speechless:

"Do we really need to go to Juyi Hall for such a trivial matter?"

Lin Feng was very serious:

"This is no small amount of money."

"Don't let this little bit of money ruin our brotherhood."

Liang Kun looked at him with suspicion and uncertainty.

He could tell that Lin Feng was serious.

After thinking about it, I decided to go to the Hall of Gathering Righteousness.

Because of the movie filming, all the leaders of Hung Hing, except for Benny, were present.

Lin Feng demonstrated the water and said to everyone:
"Don't say that your brothers don't take care of you. When I'm building a water station, you're the first people I think of."

"The franchise fee is 200,000 yuan per store."

"I want to sign up."

"It is entirely voluntary, and there will be no coercion."

Thirteen Sister asked:
"Ah Feng, does the water station need any other preparations?"

Lin Feng shook his head:
"No need to prepare for the water station; we can just rely on the convenience stores in our community."

Thirteen Sister was taken aback:
"So, no upfront investment is required?"

Lin Feng shook his head:
"Need not!"

"However, I must make it clear first that this water station must sell at the price I set."

“I need to assign a worker to each water station.”

"You don't need to pay my salary."

Thirteen Sister became interested:
What are the purchase price and selling price of this water?

Lin Feng shrugged:

"Three gallons of water will be given to you for twenty-one buckets, and five gallons for thirty-five buckets."

"If you sell them, a three-gallon bucket costs thirty-three dollars, and a five-gallon bucket costs fifty dollars."

"The price is the same throughout Hong Kong."

The crowd gasped in disbelief. "That's too expensive!"
Liang Kun watched this scene with great interest. In terms of business acumen, he was no match for Lin Feng. But it probably wouldn't be easy for Lin Feng to persuade these hall masters.

Lin Feng asked again:

"Anyone want to join?"

"If there's no one else, I'll take care of everything myself."

"Don't say I didn't lend you a hand later."

Liang Kun secretly shook his head. The more Lin Feng said that, the less likely these people were to join.

Just as Leung Kwan had predicted, there was a lot of whispering among the middlemen, but very few actually joined.

Just when Liang Kun thought Lin Feng was about to suffer a major setback, someone came along to cause trouble.

Bucky laughed:

“I have many factories on my territory, and the water consumption is high. Ah Feng, I want ten franchise stores.”

Lin Feng smiled and said:

"Brother Ji, you have good taste!"

Liang Kun shook his head secretly. It seemed that Ah Feng was really going to suffer a Waterloo. All the leaders of Hung Hing knew that Bakki always had the ability to stand on the wrong side.

Wang Jianjun raised his hand and said:

"Boss, I want twenty."

Axe-wielding Jun was not to be outdone.
"Boss, I want twenty."

The pheasant raised its hands and said decisively:

"Brother Feng, I want thirty."

Big D laughed heartily:

"Ah Feng, I want forty!"

Liang Kun's eyes widened; this wasn't what he had expected!
