Hong Kong Film Intelligence King

Chapter 116 The Way Gangsters Pick Up Girls
What Wangdao lacks now is funding, not ideas for making money.

To a person from the future with the ability to see the heavens, Hong Kong is now a land of gold.

He might not be good at doing business.

But they know exactly what will definitely make money in the future.

Nothing lasts forever; even profitable businesses have cycles.

Once the cycle begins, it becomes a blue ocean industry, full of huge profits.

After the cycle is over, it becomes a sunset industry, and it's good enough if it can barely survive.

To give a simple example, if you have no skills and live a muddled life, and you had a chance to travel back in time, wouldn't you feel that you would have no chance to get rich?
Actually, it's very easy to get rich.

That's the stock market.

You don't need to know which "monster stock" is what; you only need to know which industry is making money.

For example, building materials, biochemistry, pharmaceuticals, drones, artificial intelligence, or the stumbling B-circle.

If you know that a certain industry will definitely see a big surge in the future, then you can cast a wide net.

Even if you lose money on one or two stocks, you'll still make a profit overall.

Wang Dao sees every opportunity to make money now, but unfortunately, he always lacked sufficient funds before.

Not to mention the intelligence system that's still in place.

Now I can really unleash my potential.

The 150 million yuan that came in that afternoon gave Wang Dao a substantial cash flow, bringing him one step closer to his goal.

In high spirits, Wang Dao pulled out a stack of large yellow oxen, totaling 100,000 yuan, and distributed them to the receptionist who came to help.

The four younger sisters were almost ecstatic.

The money was divided among the four people, and each person received a total of 25,000.

Keep in mind that their monthly allowance for firewood and water is only a little over three thousand.

This extra income is almost equivalent to their annual firewood and water expenses.

The receptionist left, thanking her profusely.

Wang Dao quickly wrote out another check, a full two million, and handed it to Liang Kun.

The latter was very surprised:
Why are you giving me so much money?

Wang Dao shrugged:

"We agreed that you'd get a commission as long as it's sold at market price."

Handsome Kun sighed:

"This isn't enough to cover the cost of the house."

Wang Dao was taken aback and said:
"That's enough. I'm only giving you your commission after deducting that house."

Liang Kun was taken aback:
"If that's the case, then I made six million in one afternoon by buying houses, didn't I?"

Wang Dao corrected:
"It's five million, and I'll give you a discount of three hundred and fifty for that house."

Handsome Kun laughed heartily:

"Brothers!"

Chen Yongren looked on with great envy.

Wang Dao laughed and said:

"I've reserved rooms for all of you."

"Each person lives in an 800-square-foot mansion."

"There is a window inside that offers an unbeatable sea view."

"You won't have to pay anything, but you'll lose your firewood and water for the next two years."

Chen Yongren was overjoyed:
"Brother Dao, really?"

Wang Dao shrugged:

“I never joke about this kind of thing.”

Chen Yongren shouted with joy.

In contrast, Li Fu and Li Jie were much more composed:

"Thank you, Brother Dao!"

Leung Kwan gave a thumbs up:
"Ah Dao, you've got my style, haven't you?"

"That's right."

"Brothers are the most important. You have to share your wealth with your brothers to go the distance."

Wang Daoshen agreed. He himself earned 150 million from this trip, and by sharing 1.8 million with his underlings, he gained three loyal followers in return. No matter how you look at it, it was a win!
"Brother Kun, I'm in a good mood today, shall we go out for a meal?"

Handsome Kun shook his head:
"Goodbye, my next drinking party is scheduled for two weeks from now."

Wang Dao laughed heartily.

When Liang Kun introduced someone to buy a house, it wasn't because he did them a favor; rather, it was because that person owed him a favor.

A house in such a prime location is practically a guaranteed profit.

It's much safer than any stock investment.

Even without making an investment, living there yourself is a huge profit.

If such an organization is used as a gift in exchange for benefits, then it is even more useful.

Therefore, these people all made dinner appointments with Liang Kun—Liang Kun not only had connections in both the legitimate and underworld circles, but also possessed such good resources, so it was inevitable that they would keep in touch.

It can be said that from this point on, the connection between Liang Kun and them became solid – with enough shared interests, they were reluctant to part with Liang Kun.

If Liang Kun ever needs anything in the future, then of course I'll have to help him.

After thinking for a moment, Liang Kun said:

"Let's go check out Ah Niu's place."

Wang Dao remained silent:

"Do we still need to go find that Bozi?"

Liang Kun shrugs:

"All the women I know are involved in the underworld, and she seems alright. If I don't go for her, who else should I go for?"

The king's way was silent:
"We get quite a few actresses coming to our company for auditions every day. Would you like to consider one of them?"

Handsome Kun shook his head:
"Forget it, I'm not interested in movie stars."

"They can't talk to me."

"If I told them I was going to go and chop up my friends and kill people, you'd think they'd be scared to death!"

"I can't imagine we could have a conversation."

"Let's go find Bozi instead."

Wang Dao was too lazy to persuade him anymore. He had already realized that Liang Kun had set boundaries for himself. Deep down, he believed that he was a gangster, and the only suitable person for a gangster was a gangster girl.

People like Hung On-Ku Siu-Yu, who are gangsters but marry the daughter of a police officer, are a minority.

Kingly Way claps hands
"You've heard everything from Brother Kun, right? Ah Jie and I will go with Brother Kun to Brother Qiang's place. Ah Fu and Ah Ren, go back to the company and get busy."

And so the group parted ways.

In the car, Liang Kun asked with great interest:
"Ado, how do you want to decorate your house?"

Wang Dao shrugged:

"That's not something I should be thinking about."

Liang Kun asked in bewilderment:
"Isn't your house something you should be thinking about?"

Wang Dao laughed and said:

“Ah Zhen has already said that she will be in charge of the design.”

“I don’t have high requirements for the accommodation. I just need to design it however she likes. I’m only responsible for paying for it.”

"Harmony in the family brings prosperity in all things."

Johnny Kwan was thoroughly fed a dose of PDA, and he complained:

"Ah Zhen isn't even here, why are you doing this?"

Wang Dao shrugged:

"Is telling the truth a crime?"

Liang Kun had no choice but to change the subject:

What is your approximate renovation budget?

Wang Dao thought for a moment and said:

"About two million!"

Young Kun gasped.
"It's so expensive?"

The Way of Kings is straightforward:
"That house at that location, you'd live there for at least several decades, if not your whole life, right?"

"Based on my estimation, that house will easily sell for over 100 million in 30 or 40 years."

"Then, our renovation needs to keep up with the house price."

"Otherwise, if you renovate a house worth 100 million yuan into one that looks cheap, costing only a few hundred thousand yuan, can you stand it?"

Handsome Kun chuckled coldly:

"One hundred million?"

"What are you thinking?"

Wang Dao shrugged:

"This is a basic reality derived from the prospects of Hong Kong and inflation."

"Our apartment is on the 18th floor, which gives us an extra advantage."

"One hundred million is not expensive."

"Two or three hundred million is possible!"

Liang Kun sighed:
"I thought I was good enough at making empty promises, but I never expected you to be the real master of empty promises."

"Two or three hundred million? You really dare to dream!"

Wang Dao smiled but remained silent.

Liang Kun looked at him suspiciously:
"Can it really rise to two or three hundred million?"

If Wang Dao had argued with him, he wouldn't have asked that question. Instead, Wang Dao just smiled, which was a sign of great certainty.

Liang Kun has a deep understanding of the importance of having good connections with the right people.

Putting everything else aside, this building alone earned him five million in just one afternoon.

This is outrageous!
Do not!
That's much safer than robbing someone.

Wang Dao smiled and said:
"Brother Kun, this needs time to settle down."

"Right now, it's certainly not worth that number, but you'll see in ten or twenty years."

Handsome Kun snorted coldly:
"We're all in this business, either driving police cars or hearses. Who knows what might happen tomorrow?"

The way of the king is to follow the trend:
"Then let's do the right thing."

"The two movies starring the chubby guy and Ringo Lam have already started filming. In just one or two months, you'll see how lucrative filmmaking is."

Liang Kun nodded slightly:

"That would be for the best."

He sighed,
"I thought the two million would be enough to recoup some of the losses, but I never expected it would be used for renovations."

Wang Dao shrugged:

"The renovation will be completed very quickly."

"As long as the money is in place, it will only take three or four months, and we'll be able to celebrate the New Year in our new house by the end of the year!"

Liang Kun thought about it and agreed.
"Money is worthless, we can earn it back after spending it. I refuse to believe we brothers won't get rich!"

Wang Dao is full of confidence:

"You're definitely going to make a fortune."

Well, at least he already has over 150 million, which makes him a rich man in this day and age!
The car drove very fast, and they arrived at their destination in less than twenty minutes.

Sha Qiang personally greeted them outside:
"Brother Kun, Brother Dao, you've arrived."

Since the Mong Kok branch was established, Ugly Kwan has only come three times in total, including yesterday's visit. Silly Keung is very independent; he basically calls the shots on this street, so he especially cherishes this opportunity.

He was afraid of upsetting Liang Kun.

It's rare to see a big shot like Liang Kun who genuinely cares for his underlings.

Where can you find a place where, after just conquering territory, the land is immediately divided among the underlings, with the only job being a monthly cut?
Moreover, such a large piece of land?
This spans two entire streets in Mong Kok!

How big is Brother Long's territory?

Such a large establishment is only located on one street.

What other territory can compare to the lucrative Mong Kok area?
If there really is one, it can only be Tsim Sha Tsui!
Liang Kun asked:

"Is that girl inside?"

Sha Qiang nodded:
"My sister-in-law is inside."

"You know what, even though she's a goldfish, she's very popular with bosses. Many bosses specifically request her because of her reputation."

Liang Kun's eyes lit up and he asked:
Why are so many people requesting her?

Sha Qiang thought for a moment and said uncertainly:
"I guess the woman is acting all high and mighty, right?"

Handsome Kun cursed speechlessly:

"Crazy line!"

After saying that, he swaggered inside.

Wang Dao gestured for A-Jie to follow, while he stayed behind to talk to Sha-Qiang:

"Brother Qiang, how's the place?"

Sha Qiang nodded repeatedly:

“Of course, this is where we brothers live and make a living, so we will definitely take good care of it.”

“Our business is the best in the area; the bosses treat me to drinks almost every other day.”

Wang Dao smiled and asked:
"There's no issue with losing followers, is there?"

Sha Qiang shook his head:
"Definitely not!"

"No one dares to break the rules set by Brother Kun."

Wang Dao said softly:
"Brother Qiang, as you know, this street is surrounded by the Ni family's territory, and those territories are full of fellow Daoists."

"Our venue is clean, so our guests can come and have fun with peace of mind."

That's the difference.

"This is our advantage."

"You absolutely must keep it up!"

Sha Qiang laughed:

"I see."

Wang Dao laughed and said:

“Kun’s interests don’t lie in these areas; he wants to make movies.”

"Once the movie is released, all the money in our venue will be laundered through legal means. As long as we work hard for two or three years, we will have a large sum of money in our accounts, and we can become legitimate wealthy men."

Silly Qiang chuckled foolishly.

"Don't worry, Brother Dao, I will definitely keep a close watch on this street for the boss."

Wang Dao, with his arm around Sha Qiang, said:
"Brother Qiang, you know that since Brother Kun graduated from university, he has rarely set foot in places like this. Every time he comes, he comes to your place."

"You understand what I mean, right?"

"Brother Kun trusts you."

"He trusts you more than Ah Niu next door."

Sha Qiang's smile became even sillier:
"I'm a die-hard fan of Brother Kun."

The two looked at each other and smiled.

However, the words were still warm when suddenly a guest ran out from inside.

Sha Qiang's expression changed:

The boss rarely comes here, and I was just thinking of making a good impression on him, but then this happened?

The two exchanged a glance and then hurried into the arena together.

Lung Kwan has taken control of the situation:
"In particular, we are very sorry for this accident."

"Your meals are on the house today."

"I hope you all have a great time."

The ballroom erupted in cheers in an instant.

Liang Kun put down the microphone, waved to Sha Qiang, and the latter walked over nervously.
"What exactly happened to Brother Kun?"

A smile played on Liang Kun's lips:

"Quite fun."

Sha Qiang secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that Brother Kun isn't angry."

Wang Dao asked in confusion:
"Is it fun?"

“I just saw a lot of guests leaving.”

Lam Kwan nodded:
"Of course, someone attempted an assassination just now."

Sha Qiang's heart jumped:

"An assassination attempt?"

"Boss, are you alright?"

Leung Kwan spread his hands:
Do I look like something's wrong to you?

"The assassination wasn't aimed at me, it was aimed at the girl I'm interested in."

"There it is!"

Following Liang Kun's finger, everyone looked over and saw five women.

One of the leaders was very beautiful, especially her arrogant expression.

Wang Dao inexplicably recalled Sha Qiang's words, "Maybe the bosses like her because she's arrogant?" If nothing unexpected happens, this is Bo Zi, whom Liang Kun has his eye on.

Her appearance was not good now; a large part of her clothes had been torn off, revealing her snow-white skin, which shimmered with iridescent colors under the lights of the dance hall.

The three women beside her were all good-looking, and one of them, with short hair, had a particularly sharp and imposing aura.

The woman in contrast was in a much worse state; not only was she bleeding from the corner of her mouth, but her clothes were also almost completely ruined.

Handsome Kun said to Silly Qiang:
"Take them all to the private room, so as not to disturb the guests' enjoyment."

Sha Qiang immediately complied.

Leung Kwan sat there with an air of nonchalance, watching the group with great interest:

"Tell me, you guys are really bold to cause trouble in my place."

Little Lucky Star asked curiously:

"Your place, doesn't this place belong to Brother Qiang?"

Sha Qiang's face turned green.

Liang Kun glanced at Sha Qiang and laughed:

"You and this girl have a better relationship?"

Sha Qiang glared at Xiao Fuxing and said cautiously:
"Brother Qiang, I'm just more familiar with her."

Liang Kun looked at him strangely:
"Why are you nervous?"

"This girl is pretty good."

Sha Qiang secretly wiped his sweat. He didn't know Liang Kun's purpose, so he was naturally scared.

Liang Kun pointed at them and said:
"You guys have really opened my eyes today."

"A woman assassinating another woman, and making such a big deal out of it?"

Who do you think you are?

"Is Tung Sing's Shui Ling or Hung Hing's beautiful mother?"

"Of all the people in this world, only a few women have managed to become the head of a gang."

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

Bozi quickly replied:
"Boss, we were doing our job properly in the club, drinking and chatting with the customers, when this bitch suddenly showed up and tried to kill us."

"If we hadn't reacted quickly, we would be lying here today."

Upon hearing this, Aizi objected:
"You nagging old hag, why don't you just tell the facts?"

“Our connection has been going on for a while now. I’m here to seek revenge.”

Bozi rolled her eyes:
"Crazy line!"

Ais shouted:
"You little brat, you got away with it this time. Just wait until my godbrother comes, he'll kill you."

Liang Kun's smile widened, and he turned to look at Wang Dao:

"Who is her godbrother?"

Before Wang Dao could answer, Ai Zi roared:
"Release me right now, or my godbrother will come and wreak havoc on your place."

The atmosphere fell silent instantly.

Young Kun's smile widened even more:

Who is your godbrother?

Ais said arrogantly;
"Dongxing Lovena!"

Liang Kun twitched his ear:

"Oh, such an important person?"

"Ah Qiang, give him a call and tell him to bring people to pick up his good sister."

Bozi was terrified:

“Boss, Lovena is the head of Dongxing. We can’t let him come, or this place will be ruined.”

Liang Kun beckoned to Bo Zi to sit beside him:
"You have good intentions."

Bozi chuckled dryly:
"After all, this is where I work, isn't it?"

Liang Kun raised an eyebrow:
"I know why this woman provoked you; it's probably your old flame's fault."

Bozi was taken aback:
"Does the boss know...that person?"

Liang Kun speaks the truth:

"I don't know him. I only heard about him today because of you."

Bozi was quite surprised:

"because I?"

Liang Kun said seriously:
“I saw you when I came over yesterday.”

"I like you very much."

I want you to be my woman.

Wang Dao thought to himself, "Wow, so direct!"

Little did they know, gangsters are just that direct.

Bo Zi politely declined:
"Boss, I think you might have made a mistake. I don't sell myself."

Liang Kun corrected:
"I don't want to play around with you. I want you to be my woman and marry me."

Bozi found it quite absurd:

"Boss, stop joking. You've seen me as a gangster, I'm in trouble."

Handsome Kun laughed:

“I never joke about this kind of thing.”

"I've cleared up all your troubles, so you can be my woman without any worries. How about that?"

Bozi glanced at Sha Qiang, then at his underlings, and gritted his teeth, saying:
"If you can help me solve my problem, I'll be your woman."
