Hong Kong Film Intelligence King

Chapter 190 It's the beginning of the month again.
After having a warm dinner with Mr. and Mrs. Le, Wang Dao and his wife returned home with full bellies.

Le Huizhen complained:

"Oh dear, I ate too much today, my belly has gotten so big."

Wang Dao quipped:
"It's okay, I'll just exercise tonight."

Lok Wai-chun clapped her hands and said:
“I’ve already planned a gym in my new home, so I can work out no matter what time I get home at night.”

The king's way was silent:
Is it really necessary to curl it like this?

"Just leave work on time, go home on time, and keep the system running on time, isn't that enough?"

Le Huizhen shook her head:

"For journalists like us, how can we possibly have a regular work schedule?"

"We female reporters, in particular, have had an even harder time."

“I’ve had the experience of going to the gym at 3 a.m. before.”

Wang Dao was taken aback and said:
"Isn't this too outrageous?"

Le Huizhen explained:

"It's not just me, lots of people have it too!"

"Working during the day is too busy, and I have to work overtime. In order to maintain my figure or keep my health, exercising in the middle of the night or even in the early morning is essential."

There's nothing that can be done about this.

Wang Dao sighed:

"Everyone is trying to make a living, just to earn a few taels of silver."

Le Hui looked at him with a strange expression:
"You've had enough!"

"Others can say that, but it's a bit funny for a billionaire to say it."

Wang Dao shrugged:

"This hasn't achieved my goal yet."

Le Huizhen was extremely surprised:
"Has this not achieved your goal?"

Wang Dao explained:
"I want to become a real rich person!"

Le Huizhen was confused:

"Thanks to you, I've saved up over 20 million in my secret stash. If you're not rich, then I'm even less so."

She is extremely satisfied with her current life.

It's said that men fear choosing the wrong career and women fear marrying the wrong man, but this man didn't marry the wrong person.

It's only been a few months, and the two of them have been together for at most a little over a month, yet they already have over 20 million in their own little savings. The bulk of that comes from a recent major stock market project, which alone amounts to 16 million.

Another big win came from the Hong Kong Jockey Club's mid-year lottery in the middle of the month, where she won over five million dollars in a triple jackpot.

Other miscellaneous details need not be mentioned.

While it's true that a man giving you money doesn't necessarily mean he loves you, there's also the possibility that he just wants to sleep with you.

However, a man who doesn't give you money is unlikely to have much love for you—except for those who lack funds.

Lok Wai-chun is now confident in front of anyone. If Leung Kwan were to host another banquet, she would dare to face anyone with composure, including Sixth Uncle!

Instead of doing what happened last time, he only dared to sit at the same table with Chen Guozhong and Wang Dao, and only dared to talk to these two.

What gives Lok Wai-jin confidence is her secret stash of money and the man behind her, Wang Dao.

Wang Dao explained:
"In the eyes of ordinary people, you are indeed rich."

"Your money is even more than the market value of some companies."

"But you only have money, you're not a rich person."

"Rich people need to have money, power, and influence."

"You're all alone, so you can only be considered rich."

Le Huizhen seemed to understand something.

Wang Dao smiled:
"You'll understand these things gradually."

Le Huizhen chuckled:
"Why should I care so much? Anyway, you'll plan out the future for me."

Wang Dao smiled and gave her a light nod:
"Smart!"

Le Huizhen proudly raised her chin:
"If I weren't smart, why would I have chosen you?"

"If I weren't smart, why would you have chosen me?"

The Way of Kings is straightforward:
"Actually, I was captured by your two big thunderbolts."

Le Huizhen immediately said:

"I know."

"It begins with looks, but is captivated by talent."

"Loyal to character, obsessed with the flesh."

"Captivated by the sound, intoxicated by the deep emotion."

These are the words Wang Dao once said to Le Huizhen, which she has remembered to this day.

"That makes so much sense. If you're not attracted to someone, why would you even think about pursuing them?"

After a moment of fascination, Yue Huizhen suddenly said:

"Honey, should I sign up for a housekeeping course?"

There are countless vocational skills training programs like this in Hong Kong.

"Why did you decide to enroll in such a class?" Wang Dao asked, quite puzzled.

Le Huizhen whispered:

"My mom told me today that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach."

"I think it makes sense."

Actually, it was Yue's mother who was worried that Yue Huizhen's personality would cause Wang Dao to fall in love with someone else.

Wang Dao's feelings for Le Huizhen are beyond question; he treats Le Huizhen well and his family even better.

This made the entire Lok family worry that Lok Hui-chen would lose the king's favor.

Compared to Wang Dao, Le Huizhen has little to no distinguishing features other than her fair skin, beautiful face, curvy figure, and some fame.

What? You mean a famous TV host?
Sigh! It was Wangdao's resources that made Yue Huizhen famous.

If someone can create one Lok Wai-Ching, why can't they create another one?
Moreover, Wang Dao works at Qiankun Film and Television Company, where he is surrounded by beautiful women every day. It's dazzling and confusing; who knows if any of them will throw themselves at him?
All I can say is that parents' hearts are always full of love and worry.

After thinking it over and over, Mrs. Yue remembered a famous saying left by her ancestors, so she whispered a lot of things to Yue Huizhen.

Le Huizhen originally had great faith in her relationship with Wang Dao, but after hearing what her mother said, she became somewhat insecure and began to seriously consider the suggestion.

After understanding the cause and effect, Wang Dao couldn't help but roll his eyes:
You're so busy every day that you never have a moment to rest.

"Let's count the things you have to do..."

"First and foremost is your job. You're a news reporter. Although we have ample resources now, we don't know when those resources will come."

Le Huizhen nodded repeatedly:
"Yes, it is."

“Those criminals basically violated human norms when they committed their crimes.”

Wang Dao laughed and said:

“If it weren’t for breaking the rules, they would be committing a crime in broad daylight.”

Le Huizhen sighed.

"Secondly, it's the renovation of our new home."

Le Huizhen immediately perked up:
"I'd rather slack off at work than let the renovation of my new home have even the slightest problem."

"That's a house I'll live in for the rest of my life."

Wang Dao quipped:
"I thought you would like going up in the mountains."

Le Huizhen nodded:

"I like it too."

"But Repulse Bay is a fantastic place!"

"Absolutely stunning ocean view!"

Wang Dao seemed to be deep in thought:
"It looks like there'll have to be a set up on the mountain too."

Le Huizhen thought for a moment and then shook her head:
"Let's get the Repulse Bay system up and running first."

Buying a house on the hillside is certainly a lot of trouble, and the people who live there are either very rich or very powerful.

However, given Wang Dao's current net worth, he said that buying a house on the hillside would be very easy for him.

At most, you can spend a few million to buy a piece of land and build it yourself.

Wang Dao vaguely remembered this incident. It is said that more than ten years later, Stephen Chow spent 20 million to buy a piece of land in Mid-Levels and built two luxury mansions.

It's only the 1980s now, land prices aren't that outrageous, so Wang Dao can easily buy land.

In places like that, buying is a sure win, a solid investment.

Wang Dao countered with a question:
"These two things have taken up almost all of your time, so..."

"You still have time to sign up for classes?"

"That class is very disciplined and punctual."

Le Huizhen was slightly stunned:
"Yeah, where would we find the time?"

She was somewhat worried.

Wang Dao gently stroked her hair and said, "Your mother-in-law's worries are not unreasonable. No one can predict what the future will hold, but aren't we happy right now?"

"If you're feeling anxious about this, I have a suggestion for you."

Le Huizhen immediately perked up:
"What move?"

The Way of Kings is straightforward:
"You don't have time to learn to cook, but you can hire a chef who has time to teach you how to cook."

"It's just home-style cooking; once you master it, you can master it all. It's very easy."

Le Huizhen thought for a moment, and her eyes lit up:

"Honey, you're amazing!"

"You're quick-witted."

Wang Dao shrugged:

"That's what everyone who knows me says."

Lok Wai-chun started rubbing against his leg again:

"Honey, it's getting late, shall we do some exercise?"

Le Huizhen is always like this. As long as Wang Dao makes her feel admiration, her emotions will be excited, her feelings will be aroused, and she will naturally want him.

Wang Dao is also happy to cooperate.

To be honest, the things that made Le Huizhen stand out were exactly what excited him.

Once Yue Huizhen had fallen into a deep, contented sleep, Wang Dao went to the balcony, lit a cigarette, and began reviewing the monthly intelligence reports.

It's the beginning of the month again, time for the monthly news roundup!
However, the first piece of information left him somewhat dumbfounded.

① Chan Ho-nam was extremely saddened by Sai B's death. He vowed to avenge Sai B, to kill Chiang Tin-sang, and to kill Leung Kwan.

What the hell? !
Wang Dao suddenly perked up!
Fellow Daoist Nan, are you trying to ascend to heaven?!

They actually want to target Jiang Tiansheng?
The problem is, isn't Chan Ho-nam supposed to be the 49th of Hung Hing? Targeting the head of a triad, isn't that an act of insubordination and betrayal?

②Chan Ho-nam found Camel and offered to switch sides with Tung Sing in exchange for revenge for Sai B. After careful consideration, Camel agreed. He thought highly of Chan Ho-nam and planned to make him one of the new generation of Tung Sing's Five Tigers.

Wang Dao chuckled coldly.

Sure enough, all friendships are nothing more than self-interest.

Camel and Chiang Tin-sang often drank tea together. Although there were frictions between the two triads, Tung Sing and Hung Hing, the two had a really good relationship.

That's more than just good; it's the kind of person who'll go all out whenever they get the chance.

But thinking about it, it doesn't seem strange at all—Camel knew Jiang Tiansheng's abilities, so it's understandable that he would take the opportunity to kill him.

③ James examined his white gloves and finally narrowed it down to two people—the elder Bai Tou Weng of Hesheng and Da Pu Hei, one of the nine hall masters of Liansheng. He planned to slowly contact them this month and then decide on the final choice.

Wang Dao's face darkened.

The old man with white hair was the only elder who cared about Ba Bi after his death; he was a drug dealer himself.

After the great split in Hetu, he followed the god to restore and prosper the temple.

After the god became the person in charge, the old man with white hair continued to be his uncle.

As for Daipu Hei, rumors circulated that he sold drugs like ecstasy, but it turns out he was also a drug dealer.

A message verified by James is unlikely to be fake.

Find an opportunity to take them out!

④ Ni Yongxiao vaguely sensed that someone was targeting him, but he didn't know who was behind it and felt very uneasy. He didn't want to sit idly by and wait for his death, so he prepared to fight back. He wanted to let everyone know that the Ni family was not someone to be trifled with.

Wang Dao's expression was strange.

Isn't James going to take action against the Ni family?
Why haven't they made a move yet?

Ironically, James dared to use the police force to suppress traditional triads, but once Hung Hing launched its retaliation, he backed down.

Faced with drug dealers like the Ni family, James demanded that Chen Guozhong pursue legal action.

No matter how you look at it, James seems to fit the Chongqing people's character perfectly—bullying the weak and fearing the strong!

They're just like Big D.

and many more……

It seems like we can take advantage of this.

If used properly...

Mark this intelligence report for him!
⑤ Zhuo Kele and the others are now able to get out of bed, and even though they haven't fully recovered, they have been discharged from the hospital. This humiliation is a lingering nightmare for them, and they absolutely do not want to be watched by江湖 (jianghu) figures again. What they suffered is taboo for them; anyone who dares to mention it in front of them will face their wrath!
Wang Dao grinned.

These guys are as stubborn as ever.

However, this is a good thing.

He wasn't some Hung Hing henchman; he was just an ordinary white paper fan.

It would be best if no one in the martial arts world knew his name!
⑥ Hua Fu harbored a burning resentment he desperately wanted to vent, so he set his sights on Hong Fu's Fei Long, who had retired from the criminal world and possessed considerable wealth. Hua Fu was after Fei Long's wealth; he wanted to accumulate strength before challenging Liang Kun again.

A cold glint flashed in Wang Dao's eyes.

Does this guy want to die?
Wang Dao flipped through the old intelligence reports and suddenly found one: "Tang Bao's son, Tang Wenjun, has returned to Hong Kong. Tang Wenjun claims to have returned after completing his studies, but in reality, he killed someone in Hong Kong and fled back. This man is wicked and has committed all sorts of evil deeds. Tang Bao is unaware of his son's background and wants to recommend him to his sworn brother, Feilong."

Wang Dao stroked his chin, deep in thought:
"Hongfu? Another one with the character 'Hong' in its name?"

"It's worth pushing forward. After all, Brother Kun is the Second Marshal of Hung Hing. We can do him a favor!"

"However, Tang Bao is Fei Long's sworn brother, which is a troublesome matter."

"Just wait and see!"

⑦ The Wharf Holdings and Hutchison Whampoa consortium, which were preparing to flee, did not achieve their goal. They were intercepted by the Wangdao stock fund. They were shocked and angry, and prepared to ask James to investigate the stock fund.

Wang Dao rolled his eyes. Would James dare to come?

If he dares to come, I'll send him to sell salted duck eggs.

James is a smart man; he won't come to a match of this caliber.

⑧ "The Shocking Emperor's Disciple" is a box office hit, and this month's box office will reach 18 million. Gu Xiaoyu and Liang Zhenbang have suddenly become hot stars in Hong Kong.

Wang Dao suppressed the urge to applaud, but the smile on his lips was impossible to hide.

That's how it is, that's what makes it fun.

Eighteen million... Looks like with some effort, we could reach twenty million!
⑨ "The Romancing Star" ultimately grossed 11 million, securing its place among the top five highest-grossing films of the year.

Wang Dao didn't particularly like this message.

After the monthly box office figures were released, there were still five days left in theaters before the film was taken off the screens, which wasted an intelligence resource.

⑩ The failed scheme by Wharf Holdings and Hutchison Whampoa greatly shocked the Hong Kong-based capital group that wanted to flee the city, leaving them unsure whether to continue their scheme. Hongkong Land Group, however, refused to believe this, and its backers were prepared to raise the price from 21 cents to 4.2 dollars, allowing the host to unleash their full potential.

I saw an old friend again!
Wang Dao was quite moved at that moment.

He keenly sensed that Hongkong Land's stock price had taken a rollercoaster ride, soaring all the way before plummeting to 0.21 cents, which was clearly a setup.

A cold glint flashed in Wang Dao's eyes. "After making a fortune, why aren't you leaving? What are you trying to do?"
Are you going to continue to bleed Hong Kong lottery players dry?
Then don't blame me for taking action!
After summarizing the monthly intelligence, Wang Dao discovered that the intelligence from the martial arts world was actually more abundant.

Why is that?
Is it because he is still constantly dealing with the underworld?

Or is it because of his profession?

If his current wealth were made public, he would be among the top in Hong Kong.

Or perhaps it's because his profession is undercover work?

Wang Dao may not understand, but that's okay, he can take his time.

He then watched the daily news.

① Emi strictly forbids the Tsz Wan Shan branch from discussing Little B's affairs, which infuriates Chan Ho-nam, who decides to seek an audience with Camel.

Wang Dao was speechless. Could such a thing be prohibited?
The more you try to prohibit it, the less likely you are to stop its spread.

It's better to guide than to block.

However, it is interesting nonetheless.

② Chen Guozhong pursued Apple, who greatly admired him and agreed to date him.

Um? ! !
Wang Dao's eyes widened in surprise!
Isn't this right?

With Zhong Ge's wooden personality, how could any girl like him?
No, he absolutely had to meet this woman!

③ Tang Bao entrusted his son to Fei Long, who then assigned his capable assistant Wang Zhicheng to take care of Tang Wenjun. Wang Zhicheng was an undercover agent sent by Inspector Gao from the New Territories. He told Fei Long that he had retired from the underworld, but Inspector Gao did not believe him at all.

Another one of my own!

Wang Dao shook his head, worried about Wang Zhicheng's future.

Feilong had long since retired from the criminal world and no longer cared about Hongfu's affairs. The only reason he cared about Hongfu was because Tang Bao was his sworn brother.

The whole underworld knows about this, so there's no reason why Inspector Gao wouldn't know. The reason he doesn't believe it is simply because he doesn't want to believe it.

There's a saying: You can't wake someone who's pretending to be asleep.

If Inspector Gao had kept Wong Chi-shing by Fei-lung's side, Wong Chi-shing would have become Fei-lung's free tool.

Those who are sent out as undercover agents are highly adaptable and have excellent overall abilities; they are rare talents.

Feilong's ability to successfully transform from a powerful figure in the underworld into a businessman demonstrates his considerable personal qualities.

If he doesn't do evil, then Wang Zhicheng won't be very hostile towards him, and might even feel guilty.

Wang Dao always felt that Gao Sir would end up losing more than he gained, and that Wang Zhicheng might not be able to come back.

However, there is one advantage: staying by the dragon's side at least means there is no danger to one's life.

However, Wang Dao's eyes widened in surprise.

④ Tang Wenjun harbors strong hostility towards Feilong, and he has his eye on Feilong's wife, Danny, and wants to get her.
