The world begins with Hong Kong movies

Chapter 1 Unfortunate Experience

May 1986, Pengcheng Railway Station.

In the soft sleeper car, which was about an hour away from leaving, Wu Feng was busy packing up his luggage, his mouth never stopping: "Mom, I've called my third uncle. He'll pick you up when the train arrives!"

"Be careful on the road. If you get into trouble, don't worry about your luggage. I'll send you money when we get back home. It would be best if you can resume your previous job!"

At this time, there were only mother and son in the carriage, so they were not afraid of being overheard when talking about their personal matters.

His mother was a woman in her thirties, of medium build and with a weathered look. She wore cheap clothes from Hong Kong Island, and her short hair was streaked with glaring white strands.

"Da Feng!"

The exhausted mother standing aside suddenly spoke.

Wu Feng subconsciously turned around and saw his mother struggling for a moment before pleading softly, "If your father comes back, don't be angry or quarrel with him. Let him go back home!"

Hearing his mother's plea, Wu Feng's eyes suddenly turned red and a nameless anger surged in his heart.

"Mom, he's a gambler who doesn't care about his wife and children. Why should we care about him?"

"Don't say that, Dafeng. He is your father after all!"

There was a pleading look on the mother's face and tears were welling up in her eyes.

"...Okay, Mom, don't cry, I'll listen to you!"

He sighed in his heart and forced himself to suppress his anger. It didn't make sense for his innocent mother to bear the fault of his gambling father. His previous life was already depressing and suffocating enough.

Who can blame the mother for being a typical traditional woman? Although she doesn't "regard her husband as the leader", she still cares about her father who repeatedly owes gambling debts and shamelessly runs away.

We have argued and quarreled before, there is no need to continue to add to the mother's negative emotions.

Wu Feng could only keep his dissatisfaction in his heart, but fortunately, such days would never happen again.

This time I got a soft sleeper train ticket through the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office, which provides some security.

As other passengers got on the bus one after another, Wu Feng greeted them politely and distributed a pack of Marlboro to them. They soon became familiar with each other.

When the time was almost up, he asked the passengers in the same carriage to help look after his mother. He patiently gave his mother some instructions again and then got off the train.

He watched the train disappear from his sight before quickly walking through the crowded and chaotic station.

With his tall and strong body, floral shirt, jeans and sneakers, he is obviously a compatriot from Hong Kong Island, so naturally no one would be so blind as to pick a fight with him.

I got on the van parked outside the station and called out to the driver who had been waiting for me: "Drive, let's go back to Hong Kong Island!"

The half-old van started up quickly and drove towards Hong Kong Island.

Leaning back in the van seat, my thoughts drifted away.

He is not from this world, or rather, not from this era.

He traveled from 2024 and is a professional online writer.

Also named Wu Feng, his soul merged with a young man of the same name who was in Tseung Kwan O, Hong Kong Island in 1986.

Speaking of which, the young man Wu Feng in this world has a rather miraculous experience.

He was originally from Hubei Province in the mainland. He studied in his hometown county since he was a child, including one year of preschool, five years of elementary school, two years of junior high school and two years of high school. Unfortunately, he failed to get into a technical secondary school in the college entrance examination.

I was still young at that time, only fifteen years old, and it was not suitable for me to work in the unit, as there were not many positions available.

For the sake of his future, he simply signed up for the army and even participated in the two-mountain rotation campaign with the troops. Originally, with his academic qualifications and performance, he even had the opportunity to directly pass the internal examination of the army to enter the military academy, but after completing his three years of compulsory military service, he was called back by his family.

It turned out that my father had an uncle who was drafted into the Kowloon Army. After the war, he did not run to Taiwan, but went to Hong Kong Island with a group of defeated soldiers. He settled down in Tiu Keng Leng, got married and had children.

Not long ago, realizing that his time was up, he found his father through the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office and asked him to go to Hong Kong Island to see him for the last time and arrange his funeral affairs.

When my father arrived in Hong Kong Island, my uncle asked for his opinion while he was ill, and then helped my father get a Hong Kong Island ID card and even a stable job before he passed away.

At that time, my father, who had just graduated from technical secondary school, was already the director of the township veterinary station and a section-level cadre.

Not long after, my father, who had established himself in Hong Kong Island, asked my mother to take a leave of absence from her job and follow her to Hong Kong Island.

At that time, there was a strong trend of yearning for the outside world, not to mention that the average salary in Hong Kong Island was shockingly high. If given the opportunity, everyone would be willing to come here to make a lot of money.

In the spring of 1986, Wu Feng, a conscript, was discharged from the army and soon rushed to Hong Kong Island and obtained a Hong Kong Island identity card.

With his academic qualifications, it should not be a problem for him to find a proper job in Hong Kong Island, but unfortunately things did not go as he wished.

I don’t know when my father became addicted to gambling, and he became a completely ruined person.

At first, he only used his own salary to gamble, and later he had to use his mother's salary to gamble. We quarreled about this countless times, but it was of no use.

Later on, he became more and more daring, even borrowing high-interest loans to gamble in underground casinos.

When the loan sharks came to ask for money, he simply disappeared, leaving his mother and Wu Feng to face a group of ferocious thugs.

They resorted to despicable tactics like throwing red paint and releasing snakes, as well as various unbearable threats.

Wu Feng was not afraid. After all, he had experienced the baptism of gunfire on the two mountain fronts, so how could he be afraid of a few street thugs? But his mother tried her best to stop him from taking action.

Fortunately, his uncle's cousin Huang Wengang couldn't bear to see this and came to help. Wu Feng then worked with his cousin to drive away the gang of thugs who came to collect debts.

At this time, Wu Feng was actually forced into a corner and had no choice at all.

If I leave Hong Kong Island with my mother quickly and return to my hometown, I will have to let my cousin and his family face the loan sharks.

A debt of HK$100,000, with compound interest, who knows how huge a number it would become?

The only option is to stay in Hong Kong Island and fight it out, because you might be beaten to death by debt collectors at any time.

Or maybe he went astray, after all, he did have considerable personal strength!
The mother just cried and scolded the father, without any thoughts or opinions at all.

At this time, my cousin Huang Wengang made a suggestion, which was to join the club!
It just so happened that Master Zhong of Hongyi was very optimistic about his skills and wanted to take him under his wing.

He was originally a little hesitant, but if Wu Feng joined him, he would be completely relieved.

If Wu Feng didn't know his cousin's temper, he would have thought that he was setting a trap for him. It was too easy to arouse people's imagination. His ability to persuade people needs to be improved.

Wu Feng had no choice but to agree and wait until he and his cousin met Mr. Zhong from Hongyi to confirm the matter.

Mr. Zhong helped pay back a loan sharking sum of 100,000 yuan. This is a huge favor!
After returning, he was depressed and got drunk, and then Wu Feng from 2024 traveled through time.

Because it was a fusion of souls, the memories and emotions of the previous life were preserved, which is why he reacted so strongly to the topic of his father.

After paying homage to Guan Gong and becoming the official Sijiu of Hongyi, the first thing to do is to properly arrange for my mother to return to her hometown. She can no longer stay in Hong Kong Island for the time being.

Fortunately, my mother had a work visa and a temporary ID card, so she could continue to work after returning.

Originally, Wu Feng planned to personally send his mother back to her hometown, but unfortunately, Master Zhong was in urgent need of manpower and refused to let him go, which led to the scene in the sleeper car on the train.
