Hong Kong Film Intelligence King

Chapter 155 Preparing for the Robbery
"How did Babi get out?"

"Wasn't he arrested last month?"

"If I remember correctly, it was a shipment worth a full eight million."

"They can still release it?"

Wang Dao was very puzzled.

Chen Guozhong's face was filled with gloom:

"The police station is only responsible for arresting people; prosecution is not something we can handle."

"That's a matter for the correctional services and the courts."

Wang Dao curled his lip:
"I should have killed him."

Chen Guozhong snorted coldly:

"Do I still need your help?"

"Wouldn't it be better for me to just take action directly?"

Wang Dao stroked his chin and said:
"Something's not right."

"How could such a major case as Ba Bi be released in such a short time?"

"Even if it needs to be tried, it will take at least six months, right?"

"When did instant noodle hairs become so efficient?"

Chen Guozhong thought for a moment and said:
"I'll look into it later."

“I was in charge of that case, and I clearly remember that it was a case that was started by Babi’s underlings.”

"That guy was found to have 300 grams of high-purity No. 4. He couldn't withstand the pressure and revealed Babi's warehouse, which led to Babi's arrest."

"Logically speaking, a case of such a large value shouldn't be handled so easily."

An eight million dollar case is incredibly high-profile in this day and age.

The media will definitely be watching closely.

How did they get released?

It shouldn’t be!

There must be something fishy here!

Chen Guozhong asked:
"What do you want me to do by taking a trip to Qiankun Film and Television?"

Wang Dao shrugged:

"As a good friend of Lennalé, shouldn't you express your concern?"

Chen Guozhong rolled his eyes:

"When did I become close to Handsome Kun?"

Wang Dao asked in surprise:
"You went to congratulate Qiankun Film and Television on its opening and even gave them a red envelope with a large yellow ox."

"You were the one who decided to cast Liang Zhenbang and Lin Sen together in 'The Emperor's Disciple'."

“If we go any further, you’ll also be the one who spares Liang Kun from the beating!”

Chen Guozhong opened his mouth wide and pointed at Wang Dao, saying:

"If I hadn't gone through all of this myself, you would have really convinced me."

"You were the one who did all those things behind the scenes!"

"You invited me to the opening ceremony. Consider the script as repaying a favor to Brother Kun. And the disciplinary rod—you got it by exchanging information about Lam Kwok-wan!"

"How come in your mouth it's me who took the initiative?"

Wang Dao laughed and said:

"Look, see?"

"You yourself subconsciously believe that in other people's eyes, you and Brother Kun have a good relationship, right?"

Chen Guozhong smiled wryly:

"That's really how it is."

Wang Dao said solemnly:
"In any case, since his release from prison, apart from using underhanded tactics to rob two streets from Blackie and Kwok Wah, has Liang Kun done anything else bad, right?"

"Kun is focused on doing legitimate work now, so it's not a problem for him to have a good relationship with someone like that, right?"

Chen Guozhong nodded:

"You don't need to tell me that. Inspector Chen even told me to cultivate a good relationship with you all."

"It's only right to make the trip."

After a pause, Chen Guozhong said,
"Now you should tell me why I was asked to take a trip to Qiankun Film and Television, right?"

Wang Dao laughed and said:

"Actually, it's nothing, it's just letting certain people know that you went to Qiankun Film and Television because of Babi."

Chen Guozhong was taken aback:
"other people?"

The Kingly Way, with its profound meaning, said:
"Some people who have been paying attention to Gigi Lai."

Chen Guozhong said with a smile:

“It’s true that Liang Kun is a capable person, but the idea that someone is constantly paying attention to him is nonsense.”

"Besides Ah Ben from Tung Sing and Chiang Tin-sang from Hung Hing, who else is still paying attention to him?"

His pupils suddenly contracted.
"Wait a minute. You didn't specifically leak information to these two, did you?"

Wang Dao laughed heartily:

"Then you don't need to worry about it, just remember to come when the time comes."

Chen Guozhong countered with:

"Can't we go now?"

Wang Dao laughed even more heartily:

"That would be even better."

Chen Guozhong smiled and said:
"Then I'll go now, let's not wait for the time to be changed."

Wang Dao waved his hand and said:
"Okay, I'll go back first, then you can go over."

Chen Guozhong shrugged:

"There's no need to go to such trouble. I just thought about it carefully, and it seems that in other people's eyes, I have a very good relationship with both of you."

Wang Dao nodded:
"That's right. To be honest, in other people's eyes, our relationship is even closer."

Isn't it?

Wang Dao's wife, Le Huizhen, is a treasure in the eyes of the police!

Other journalists seek out sensational headlines, aiming for the most exciting and sensational stories.

They didn't care what impact this news would have on the police; they just wrote whatever was marketable.

Lok Wai-Chun is completely different; she's practically a mouthpiece for the police!

They never make things difficult for the police; they always highlight the police's virtuous and righteous qualities.

Even before finalizing the draft, she would submit it to the police station for review, and only finalize it if the police were satisfied—this was a trick Wang Dao taught her.

The police station was happy to give the exclusive news to Lok Wai-chun!
It can be said that in the hearts of the police station, Lok Wai-chun was one of their own.

A husband who is like one of our own is, of course, half one of our own.

what?
You're talking about Wangdao's club background?
nonsense!

He's the CEO of a legitimate company. Have you ever seen him in any illegal establishment?
Not to mention Chen Guozhong, even Chen Xinjian consciously cultivated a relationship with Wang Dao.

Whenever he thinks about all of this, Chen Guozhong is speechless.

He thought to himself, if he told Chen Xinjian that Wang Dao was a guy he had released, Chen Xinjian probably wouldn't believe him!

That's some seriously amazing ability!
You want to send someone like that out as an undercover agent?
Chen Guozhong shook his head inwardly. Who would have thought that the undercover agent he had chosen back then would be so capable?

They turned undercover rendezvous into a legitimate social activity.

If Chen Guozhong were to announce to others that Wang Dao was his mole right now, probably no one would believe him, and people would even suspect that he was trying to drive a wedge between Wang Dao and Liang Kun.

That's just outrageous!

Wang Dao laughed and said:

"Alright, let's hurry back and finish what we need to do. I have other things to do."

Chen Guozhong asked:
"What else do you want?"

Wang Dao shrugged:

"Gather intelligence!"

"By the way, I have something to tell you. The Hetu will elect a leader on the 15th of this month, and I think they will announce their dissolution on that day."

Chen Guozhong's expression changed:
"Can you be sure?"

Wang Dao explained:
"I talked to Han Bin this morning, and it's basically confirmed now."

He told the story again.

Chen Guozhong was speechless:
"Good heavens, have He Tu's uncles been scheming this far?"

Wang Dao laughed and said:

“Brother Zhong, what you’re worried about won’t happen.”

"With these old foxes around, how could Hetu possibly suffer a loss?"

"Even if the group were to disintegrate and split into groups of varying sizes, it would not cause social upheaval."

Chen Guozhong sighed:
"You really can't underestimate anyone!"

Wang Dao sighed:

"Anyone can look down on someone, but we can't."

"One wrong move and you could pay with your life."

"...How exactly did Babi come about?"

"If this can be revealed, then the cost of gaining followers is too low, right?"

Chen Guozhong's face turned ashen:
"I will look into it."

Wang Dao suddenly had a thought:
"I think I know why."

Chen Guozhong looked at him incredulously:
"Do you know why?"

Wang Dao was deeply saddened.

"possible!"

Chen Guozhong quickly asked:
"what reason?"

The Way of the King:

"For a drug lord like Ba Bi, an eight million case is probably the absolute maximum, right?"

Chen Guozhong thought for a moment and said:
"Apart from the Long Fei case this year, only the Ba Bi case had the highest value of heroin seized."

"However, Long Fei was killed by us."

"The court trial step is missing."

"However, the security bureau all said we did a good job."

Wang Dao seemed to be deep in thought:
"So, Babi is the biggest drug dealer this year?"

Chen Guozhong nodded repeatedly:
"Yes!"

Wang Dao thought for a moment and said:

"If Long Fei hadn't been killed but arrested, he might have been released too."

Chen Guozhong's expression changed drastically:
"What did you say?"

Wang Dao said in a low voice:
"That's my guess."

"Someone might be about to stir up trouble."

Chen Guozhong angrily said:

"Who could possibly have brought these guys out here to cause trouble?"

"...A foreigner?!"

Wang Dao shrugged:

"if not?"

“That’s eight million worth of goods, the evidence is irrefutable, there’s no reason for parole—don’t forget, Babi just got out of prison.”

Chen Guozhong's expression shifted between light and shadow.

Kingly Way claps hands
"This is just my guess, and it may not be correct."

Chen Guozhong smiled wryly:

"When have you ever missed an opportunity to provide intelligence?"

Wang Dao quickly replied:
"This time is different." "This is just my analysis."

There is absolutely no evidence to support this.

This isn't information provided by the system. Wang Dao can't guarantee it's 100% accurate, but how many people actually have the ability to stir up trouble?

Wang Dao can't think of many options!
Chen Guozhong, however, had already agreed with Wang Dao's assessment. After Wang Dao brought it up, he also believed that it was very likely that the foreigners were behind it.

Maybe it was that James who did it!
Wang Dao shook his head:
"Thinking like that is just wishful thinking. Why don't we do an experiment instead?"

Chen Guozhong asked in surprise:
"How do we conduct the experiment?"

Wang Dao laughed and said:

"Come back to Qiankun Film and Television with me."

"Just do as we said."

Chen Guozhong said in astonishment:

"You didn't even tell me about your plan?"

Wang Dao said softly:
"We don't know who the enemy is right now, so it's best to be cautious."

"This way you can act without any burden."

Chen Guozhong shrugged:

"Alright, you know what you're doing."

Wang Dao revealed a big smile.

So the two got into the car and returned to Qiankun Film and Television one after the other.

Liang Kun was quite surprised to see the two of them walk in almost side by side, but he was also very enthusiastic:

"Inspector Chen is here. Welcome, a warm welcome."

Wang Dao corrected:
"Brother Kun, Brother Zhong is now Chief Inspector Chen."

Leung Kwan gave a thumbs up:
"Brother Chung is amazing! He's already a chief inspector. Is he going to become a superintendent soon?"

Chen Guozhong shook his head:

"That's going to be tough!"

"It's impossible within one or two years."

Wang Dao shrugged:

"It's not necessarily impossible."

"We'll just build up our achievements through sheer hard work!"

Liang Kun's eyelids twitched, and he quickly said:
"How dare we meddle in police station matters?"

"Why aren't you making tea for Brother Zhong yet?"

Wang Dao said as he brewed tea:

“Even police stations have to consider human relationships. As long as Brother Zhong’s contributions are solid, we can just chime in from the sidelines, isn’t that enough?”

Liang Kun's Strange Path:

How can we help?

Wang Dao shrugged:

"Once we become rich, getting Brother Zhong promoted will be a piece of cake."

Liang Kun rolled his eyes; only then did he realize that Wang Dao was joking.

Wang Dao pushed the tea towards the two VIPs and said...
"Since both of you are here, our stock fund is starting to move."

Liang Kun said in surprise:
"You brought Brother Zhong over just to talk about stocks and funds?"

Wang Dao nodded:
"Of course!"

Liang Kun's Strange Path:

"Didn't you already have an investment plan for stocks and funds?"

Wang Dao solemnly stated:
“Since you two are the major shareholders, I naturally have to explain the background to you.”

Chen Guozhong's heart skipped a beat:
"Didn't you base your stock investments on their performance?"

Wang Dao shook his head:
"With so many things to do, where would I find the time to do research?"

Chen Guozhong was startled:
"You dare to invest in the stock market without doing any research?"

Liang Kun was also surprised to hear this, but he believed in the right path:

"Ado, what are your reasons for doing this?"

Wang Dao deliberately got up, pushed open the door to take a look, and then carefully closed the door, speaking in a low voice—this was completely unnecessary; he had the mini-map and wasn't afraid of anyone spying on him.

Both Leung Kwan and Chan Kwok Chung felt nervous.

"Is this necessary?"

Wang Dao's smile faded, his expression unusually serious and solemn.
"Yesterday I heard that a special envoy from Chongqing first stayed in Hong Kong for a while, then went to the north of the mainland for a while, and after returning, he met with several foreign business magistrates."

Liang Kun said in astonishment:
"Could you explain things any more clearly?"

Chen Guozhong's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately cooperated with Wang Dao:
"You mean a special envoy from Chongqing went to the mainland to discuss the future ownership of Hong Kong?"

Liang Kun looked at Chen Guozhong in surprise:
"what?!"

Wang Dao spread his hands:
"This is the conclusion you came to yourselves, not something I told you."

Handsome Kun said speechlessly:
"Is it really necessary to be so cautious just because there are only three of us?"

Chen Guozhong, however, said:
"It's better to be cautious."

"Ado, you continue."

Wang Dao clapped his hands and said:
“I heard that several senior managers of the foreign firm have disagreements about the future of Hong Kong—mainly the issue of its ownership—and many are pessimistic.”

"Some of the older classes are trying to slip away and retreat back to Chongqing."

Liang Kun didn't understand:
"What does this have to do with our stock market?"

Wang Dao said calmly:
“Someone is trying to manipulate the stock market to cash out and get back to their original position.”

The two men's expressions changed drastically:

"Are they trying to manipulate the stock market?"

Wang Dao smiled, then said seriously:
"What a coincidence, I found out about this news, so I set up a trap specifically for it."

"This is my stock market strategy, and I will only explain it once. I will not explain it again at any other time."

Both of them seemed to be deep in thought.

In fact, Wang Dao had mentioned this matter to the two of them to some extent.

Since it involved tens of millions of dollars, he couldn't possibly not explain his strategy clearly, otherwise the two of them would have concerns and make unusual moves.

That would easily ruin the subsequent strategy, which would be counterproductive.

Suddenly, Liang Kun said:
Are we robbing the foreigners?

Wang Dao nodded with a smile:
"Yes."

"How can we let those foreigners try to embezzle the neighborhood's money and take it to Chongqing?"

"It's better for Hong Kong's money to stay in Hong Kong."

Handsome Kun frowned and said:
How much do they want to roll?

Wang Dao shrugged:

Didn't I tell you before?

Young Kun suddenly stood up:
"what?"

"You're saying the owners of Wharf Holdings and Hutchison Whampoa are going to run away?"

Wang Dao flung open the door with lightning speed—of course, there was no one outside; this was all for the two people inside.

"Brother Kun, are you trying to die?!"

"Would you dare to shout this out so loudly?"

"That's a long-established foreign firm owned by the Westerners."

"If they find out about this..."

Young Kun broke out in a cold sweat and wished he could slap himself a few times.

After regaining his composure, he was once again greatly alarmed.

"These two foreign firms have quite the appetite."

"From 13 cents to 3.9 yuan; from 14 cents to 6.1 yuan!"

"They're trying to amass wealth many times over!"

Chen Guozhong said slowly:

"Ah Dao is right, it's better for our Hong Kong money to stay in Hong Kong."

"Dozens of times..."

"They really dare to think that way!"

Handsome Kun frowned and said:
Should we get involved in this kind of deal?

Chen Guozhong calmly said:

"If you do not take what Heaven has given you, you will surely suffer the consequences."

"Now that we know about this, why don't we make a good profit from it?"

"Are you afraid?"

Liang Kun's ferocity was aroused by Chen Guozhong:
"If I have money, why should I be afraid to rob it?"

Chen Guozhong suddenly said:

"That's good. Once this deal is done, we'll be rich too."

"Just do your job properly and don't lose your fans."

Liang Kun was completely dumbfounded:

"What do you mean by 'going off the powder'?"

He was furious.
"The first rule of this territory is that no one is allowed to leave. If anyone leaves, I will throw them into the sea to feed the fish!"

Wang Dao had already silently opened the door, the sound carrying far.

Chen Guozhong said slowly:
"Ah Kun, what's all the fuss about?"

"I heard that your sworn brother Babi has been released and is looking for you."

"Is he trying to get rid of your followers?"

Liang Kun became increasingly angry:

"Fuck you, my business is doing just fine, why would I go and sell drugs?"

"If he dares to come to my door, I'll break his legs!"

Chen Guozhong slowly stood up:

"That's for the best. It seems I misheard."

Liang Kun suddenly calmed down, looked at Chen Guozhong strangely, then at the door that Wang Dao had opened at some point, and whispered:

"Are you putting on an act?"

Chen Guozhong said solemnly:

"put on a show?"

"We never put on an act!"

"Ah Kun, I came here specifically to remind you, don't let anyone get you into trouble!"

“Going down the path of fandom is a dead end.”

At this moment, even though Leung Kwan knew Chan Kwok-chung was putting on an act, he couldn't stand the lecturing anymore and roared:
"I've already said it myself, I do legitimate business, I don't follow the crowd."

"Adao, see the guests off!"

Wang Dao immediately stood up and waved to Chen Guozhong:

"Brother Zhong, please."

Chen Guozhong turned to Liang Kun and said:

"As long as you don't lose any powder, I'll treat you to tea later."

Handsome Kun cursed:

"Do you think I care about your tea?"

"Get out of here!"

Chen Guozhong sighed and said to Wang Dao:
"Look, Ah Kun suddenly got angry for no reason!"

Hearing this, Liang Kun became even angrier!
