Hong Kong Film Intelligence King

Chapter 175 Void Enemy
Leung Kwan looked solemn:

"This five million is not only for intelligence on the enemy, but also a reward for resolving the trouble."

Wang Dao gives a thumbs up:
"Brother Kun sees things clearly."

Han Bin frowned:
"Who is the enemy?"

Wang Dao opened his office door and looked up—he knew perfectly well, through the mini-map, whether anyone was eavesdropping outside. This was for Liang Kun and Han Bin's benefit.

Liang Kun and Han Bin exchanged a glance, both sensing the gravity of Wang Dao's expression.

Wang Dao deliberately suppressed business.
"The person behind the bar is James, a senior superintendent in the Special Branch of the police station."

Han Bin frowned and said:
"Could a mere senior superintendent launch such a large-scale operation?"

"As far as I know, all the police districts in Hong Kong have been mobilized, and they are all targeting us."

Wang Dao shrugged:

"A mere senior superintendent certainly couldn't orchestrate such a large-scale operation."

"The problem is that his identity as a senior superintendent in the police station's political department was actually a cover."

Han Bin's brows relaxed:

"This is so true!"

Wang Dao sighed:

“Binny, Zhong-ge definitely has a different opinion on what you’re saying.”

Han Bin said in astonishment:
"Is there something unusual about this political department?"

Wang Dao explained:
"The Political Department of the police station is a special department that is theoretically directly under the head of the police station's foreign officers. They have considerable power and can intervene in almost all cases involving Chinese superintendents in the police station."

"Whether it's the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau, the Criminal Intelligence Bureau, or others."

"They can take over whenever they need it."

Han Bin's pupils contracted:
"So, the Political Department is actually a special department that checks and balances Chinese police officers?"

Wang Dao nodded slightly.

"Correct!"

Liang Kun has gained experience as a CEO and is very sensitive to wordplay:

"Then why do you say this is theoretical?"

Wang Dao said softly:
"In reality, even the top Western leader couldn't possibly command this force."

"The foreigners in the Political Department often have dual identities. The police officers are just a cover; their real identities are secret agents planted in Hong Kong by the Telecommunications Bureau of Chongqing."

Liang Kun's eyes widened:
"Something like James Bond?"

Wang Dao shrugged:

"James is just a fictional character in literature. If a high-ranking agent's identity is exposed, what awaits them is inevitably a trap and death."

"However, the James behind Babi is a high-ranking agent dispatched from the Fog City."

"In other words, he is an imperial envoy, with the authority of the emperor."

"Even the top leader has to listen to him."

"Of course, only in certain situations."

Liang Kun sneered:
"For example, selling powder?"

Wang Dao nodded:
"Yes."

"The city of fog has always regarded the sale of powder as an important tool for making money. This tool has been useful for hundreds of years, so of course they are reluctant to give it up."

Han Bin gasped.
"These five million were well spent."

Lam Kwan nodded:
"It's definitely worth it, but how exactly did you get him to stop?"

Wang Dao laughed and said:

"We're a club, so of course we have to use both soft and hard tactics."

Liang Kun became interested:

"Tell me, tell me quickly."

The way of the king is:

"One million. I found the true identity of the person behind Babi, and it's this James."

"I bought James's address for one million."

Liang Kun asked in bewilderment:
"One million for an address?"

“Is it too expensive?”

Wang Dao shrugged:

"If LeBron James's opponents knew where he lived, do you think he could sleep at night?"

Liang Kun suddenly realized.

The addresses of top-level agents are all top secret.

Let alone high-ranking agents, some underworld bosses can change sleeping locations three times a night because they have too many enemies and are afraid of being caught in a trap.

"With the remaining three million, I had his house emptied out, leaving him nothing but his head and a bomb."

“I left a printed note that said, ‘This is our apology to him. If he wants to continue, we’ll have to give him explosives next time.’”

Han Bin laughed and said:

"That's typical of a gang, pretty tough."

Wang Dao laughed and said:

"We're a club, after all."

Liang Kun asked curiously:
"If James really doesn't accept..."

Wang Daoli naturally said:
"That's naturally Jiang Tiansheng who arranged for people to do it."

“Among the thirty or forty thousand disciples of Hung Hing, even if you only select one out of a thousand, you can still find thirty.”

"Hung Hing might fall, but James will definitely not survive!"

Liang Kun and Han Bin nodded in unison.

That's right, Hung Hing might fall, and it's basically impossible for James to survive!
Liang Kun nodded in satisfaction.

"Well done, Ado."

Wang Dao reminded him:
“We’re following the rules of the organization, but we can’t be sure James doesn’t think the same way.”

Liang Kun asked, puzzled:
"He retaliated against us, so we retaliated back. It's typical gang mentality. What's wrong with that?"

Wang Dao then repeated the three reasons he had given Chen Guozhong.

Han Bin clapped his hands and said:
“Ado is right. I’ve thought about it carefully and realized that any one of these tasks would take me a long time to complete. How could it be done in such a short time?”

"impossible!"

"Even if Ado told me, I still wouldn't believe it!"

"James will definitely think about it more!"

Wang Dao countered with a question:
"Isn't that good?"

Han Bin laughed heartily:

"it is good!"

Why is it bad?

"This couldn't be better!"

“Ah Kun, when you introduce him to Jiang Tiansheng, don’t forget to mention these things.”

Handsome Kun nodded with a smile:

"That's natural."

Wang Dao clapped his hands and said:
"Alright, is that all for me?"

Handsome Kun laughed:

"Ado, you've worked hard. Take a good rest for a couple of days."

Wang Dao was finally satisfied. He took out two red envelopes and gave them to the two men.

"Hey, I made a fortune today, you can all share in my joy."

Handsome Kun laughed and scolded:
"You only give it to me when I allow you to rest?"

"Ado, you've become cunning!"

When Han Bin opened it, he was surprised to find it was a Chongqing pound, and all of them were large denomination banknotes of fifty yuan each:

How much is there?

Wang Dao casually remarked:
“Your red envelopes are special, they are worth a thousand pounds.”

"Besides the two of you, everyone else in our company is a workhorse."

Han Bin exclaimed in horror:
"Was this seized from James?"

Wang Dao nodded:
"Let's keep this as a memento. Unless James leaves office or I kill him, these 'Foggy Pounds' should not be used!"

"Who knows what James did to these banknotes?"

Liang Kun disagreed:

"It's just paper money, what tricks can they play with it?"

Wang Dao casually remarked:
"Don't underestimate these banknotes. Who can be sure that James won't record their serial numbers? Once they're found on the market, we can trace them back and find out a lot more."

Liang Kun was taken aback and exclaimed in surprise:
"Isn't this a hot potato?"

Wang Dao agreed:
"Yup!"

"That's why I want you to keep it."

Handsome Kun said speechlessly:
Why would I collect these things?

Han Bin chuckled coldly:

"It's alright. Just exchange these things for me. I'll use them in Africa later. So what if he memorizes the serial numbers?"

"Let him investigate at his own pace!"

Liang Kun said happily:

“Binny, you always have a way. Let’s do it this way.”

Han Bin asked:

"Ado, don't you need to exchange it?"

The kingly way disagrees:

"I do not need."

"Brother Kun, are you going to report this to Jiang Tiansheng?"

Lam Kwan nodded:
"Now that the matter is resolved, of course I should ask for credit."

Wang Dao took out a small piece of paper:

"Remember to have Jiang Tiansheng make this call."

Liang Kun said in astonishment:
"Whose phone is this?"

Wang Dao explained:
"It's James's."

Liang Kun exclaimed in surprise:
"You asked Jiang Tiansheng to call James?"

Wang Dao laughed and said:

"We definitely have to make this call; otherwise, it would make us look guilty."

"Just explain things to Jiang Tiansheng in detail, and make sure to make the concept of making enemies out of thin air clear."

"Only in this way will Jiang Tiansheng not feel guilty when he makes the phone call."

Liang Kun hesitated and said:
"Ah Dao, do you want to be the head of Hung Hing?"

Wang Dao asked in bewilderment:
Why would I want to be the head of Hung Hing?

Liang Kun pointed to the note in his hand:

"No matter how I look at it, I feel like you want Jiang Tiansheng to die."

"With James's stature, do you think we can intimidate him?"

Wang Dao laughed heartily:

"Brother Kun, I'll tell you everything."

"But think about it, if you didn't know my methods, how would you guess?"

"I'm off!" Wang Dao walked out with a flourish; there was nothing happier than openly skipping work.

Handsome Kun laughed and cursed:
"Stinky boy!"

His tone was full of doting affection. He turned his head to ask Han Bin a question, but was startled by Han Bin's eyes.

"What kind of look is that? It's like you're going to eat me alive."

Liang Kun shouted!

Han Bin said quietly:
"If I could, I would really like to replace you."

"Why should I be the one to seek out someone as talented as Adao instead of me!"

Handsome Kun laughed heartily:

"Because I'm charming!"

Han Bin rolled his eyes; he was truly filled with envy, jealousy, and resentment!
Why would someone like Wang Dao actively seek out Liang Kun, when Liang Kun didn't even own a piece of land back then!

Liang Kun knew why, but he couldn't say it to Han Binming.

He once discussed Han Bin with Wang Dao, and the conclusion was that Han Bin was fine as a friend, but as a boss, he would be a disaster!

Han Bin was so capable that at a glance, all his subordinates were useless and incompetent, none of them more capable than him.

But if you're really more capable than him, he'll be even more worried—"If you're so capable, why would you be my subordinate? Are you crazy?"
It just feels really awkward.

Liang Kun shrugs:

"This is the fate."

"Binny, do you think what Ado said makes sense?"

Han Bin sighed heavily, feeling somewhat disheartened.

"Didn't Ado make it clear? If we didn't know what he did, would you think he was capable of doing this?"

After thinking carefully, Liang Kun replied:
"I believe!"

Han Bin angrily said:

"What if you disagree with me?"

Liang Kun speaks the truth:

"Didn't I tell you? Ado's greatest ability is intelligence gathering."

He would never forget what Wang Dao said to him with a grin on the day he was released from prison:
"I'm very well-informed!"

After a series of events, he realized just how well-informed Wang Dao's intelligence network could be.

Han Bin said irritably:

"You know and understand Ado's abilities, but others don't."

"Not to mention others, even I am terrified by Ado's abilities."

"Sometimes I wonder, is this something a human could do?"

"But now I understand, this is something that Ado is really capable of doing."

"But other people don't think that way."

His expression turned serious.
“Finding the person behind Babi from among hundreds of foreigners is not an easy task, let alone the fact that this foreigner is a high-ranking agent of the Chongqing Telecom Bureau.”

"We also found James's address."

"Do you know what this means?"

"We've exposed LeBron James's true colors, and it's even more serious than this."

"Then came Ado's crazy move, who actually emptied James's apartment, leaving him with only a head and a bullet."

"So, here's the question: logically speaking, who has the ability to do this in just one day... no, the foreigners might have more time to consider it, starting from when they targeted our Hung Hing."

"Who could possibly have thoroughly investigated James in just three days?"

"And who else could raid James's house in just one day?"

At this point, Han Bin made a firm statement regarding the railway.

"The club can't do it."

"Even for a powerful force with a bit of influence, it wouldn't be easy to do that."

"Unless it's one of Hong Kong's top powers."

Handsome Kun frowned and said:
"what is that?"

Han Bin said speechlessly:
"Of course, it's a major power that can be compared to the Fog City Telecommunications Bureau!"

what? !

Liang Kun was taken aback:
"Are you sure you're not mistaken?"

Han Bin was too lazy to say more:

"if not?"

“If you say we are Hung Hing, they will absolutely not believe you.”

"If Hung Hing had that kind of ability, they would have swept away all other triads long ago."

"We can find every weakness in them. If they want to continue operating in the underworld, they have to obey our orders."

Leung Kwan gave a guilty smile.

Han Bin is right. It's fortunate that A Dao didn't have any ambition to join the underworld. Otherwise, sweeping through the gang wouldn't have been so easy, but it wouldn't have been so difficult either.

Take Mong Kok and Tuk Tei for example. Those two streets were taken down by using the black devil and Kwok Wah's dirt on them, weren't they?
Han Bin was disheartened.

"I wish Ado were my subordinate."

Handsome Kun laughed and scolded:

"Go away, I'm going to call Jiang Tiansheng, you can go play somewhere else."

Han Bin snorted coldly:
"I'm heartbroken, I'm going back!"

Handsome Kun was speechless:

"I'll give it to you."

Han Bin waved his hand:
"I was relieved when I heard the news. Okay, I'm going back now."

Liang Kun said goodbye to him.

After watching Han Bin leave, Liang Kun didn't make a phone call immediately. He thought about the matter over and over again—this is another lesson learned from being a boss: thinking about a matter repeatedly.

One thing is finally confirmed—Han Bin was right!

In other words, he absolutely believed in the power of the king; otherwise, who would believe that the king could do such a thing?
After Liang Kun had completely figured it out, he dialed Jiang Tiansheng's number.

He told Jiang Tiansheng everything.

Of course, the main focus is not on Wang Dao, but on his handsome Kun.

This isn't about Leung Kwan trying to steal credit from Chiang Tin-sang; it's about protecting him.

That's also what Leung Kwan is all about.

Jiang Tiansheng was stunned:
"Ah Kun, did you really do this?"

Handsome Kun laughed:

"We have to thank Mr. Jiang for his five million; otherwise, how could we have accomplished this?"

Jiang Tiansheng laughed loudly:

"This money was well spent!"

"Five million can avert a catastrophic disaster; it's absolutely worth it."

"Ah Kun, well done!"

"The club will give you credit for this."

Handsome Kun shook his head:
"Everyone is doing this for the club."

Jiang Tiansheng pondered for a moment and said:

"Ah Kun, we had some misunderstandings before, but have they cleared up now?"

Handsome Kun laughed:

"Mr. Jiang is thinking too much about the gang."

"I'm just the boss of Mong Kok, I only need to think about things on my turf."

"We see things from different perspectives, so it's normal for misunderstandings to arise."

"It's good that the misunderstanding has been cleared up."

Jiang Tiansheng was overjoyed—Liang Kun really didn't have any intention of taking his place.

He thought for a while and said:
"Ah Kun, is there anything else I need to be careful about?"

Liang Kun quickly said:
"Logically speaking, James's experience is something that an ordinary gang could not do—to be honest, it's exactly what a gang could do."

Jiang Tiansheng nodded solemnly:
"That's right. Putting everything else aside, just the fact that we were able to quickly identify the foreigners behind Ba Bi, determine James's dual identity (both overt and covert), and find James's address..."

"These are things that we江湖人士 (jianghu figures) cannot do."

Lam Kwan nodded solemnly:

"You must show that we Hung Hing are fearless."

Jiang Tiansheng understood immediately:
"We have a powerful backer behind us."

"Small B's head is his punishment. If he still doesn't know what's good for him..."

Jiang Tiansheng gave a cold laugh.

Liang Kun was extremely satisfied:

"Mr. Jiang's insight is indeed brilliant."

"Then I'll wait for Mr. Jiang's good news."

Jiang Tiansheng smiled broadly:
"No problem, just wait for my message."

"By the way, Ah Kun, let's have tea sometime."

Liang Kun was taken aback for a moment, then replied without hesitation:
"no problem!"

"I'm available whenever Mr. Jiang has time."

Jiang Tiansheng was even more satisfied. He hung up the phone and asked Chen Yao:

"What do you think?"

Chen Yao looked somewhat dazed.

"Is this something that Liang Kun can do?"

Jiang Tiansheng sighed:
"Yeah, is this something that Liang Kun can do?"

He smiled wryly,

"I'm starting to question the meaning of life."

"Now I have an idea."

“If Liang Kun had known from the beginning that Ba Bi was trying to drag him down, or even knew that Xi B would target Ba Bi.”

What do you think he will do?

Chen Yao's expression changed drastically. After carefully considering the matter, a look of horror appeared on his face:

"Just like what Liang Kun has been doing these past two days."

Jiang Tiansheng sighed:

"That's right, we've all become pawns of Liang Kun without even realizing it!"

Chen Yao's eye twitched, and he quickly said:
"Are we overestimating Liang Kun's abilities?"

Jiang Tiansheng said quietly:

Am I overthinking it?

"Don't forget, this isn't the first time he's thwarted me since he got out of prison!"

Chen Yao certainly knew what Jiang Tiansheng was talking about.

This is certainly not the first time that Leung Kwan has thwarted Chiang Tin-sang, nor the second, nor even the third.

The first time was to have Leung Kwan act as a bulwark, allowing him to acquire land in Mong Kok.

The second was to dismantle the grand scheme orchestrated by Jiang Tiansheng and Aben.

The third time was when they beat up Xi B at Juyitang, and then released the news that they had brought in Binni...

Chen Yao dared not think any further; if he did, he feared he would never dare to face Liang Kun again.
