Hong Kong Film Intelligence King

Chapter 297 The People Favored by God

Chapter 297 The People Favored by God
"Brother Zhong, should we really send this file over?"

James wiped the cold sweat from his forehead as he made a phone call to Chen Guozhong.

Following Chen Guozhong's instructions, he returned to his office and began memorizing the materials.

What information?
The files given to the four-person group by Chen Guozhong.

You won't be surprised if you don't look!
The level of detail is beyond imagination!
Chen Guozhong has a clear understanding of all the cases he has handled since he joined the police force, including the circumstances and outcomes of each case.

Personal ability evaluations and reviews are everywhere;

He knew everything about the big and small things that Liang Kun had experienced.

Even the fact that he was "very short-tempered" and needed a lot of fire extinguishers was clearly written on it.

The paparazzi really don't have the expertise to provide this kind of information.

Chen Guozhong disagreed: "It will definitely have to be handed over."

"Otherwise, wouldn't all that preparation have been for nothing?"

"But how can I tell Simon that I investigated you all along?" James asked, quite alarmed.

Chen Guozhong was utterly astonished:
“James, don’t tell me you don’t have special files for outstanding Chinese people like us.”

"Investigating us, isn't that your mission?"

"Otherwise, would Shen Daban have recommended you to Ximen?"

"If you dare to say no, I have serious doubts about your work ability."

"If you can't even do your job properly... your supervisor will likely fire you."

"That's not worth my time to train."

James had nothing to say.

Isn't this nonsense?
How many foreigners are there in Hong Kong?
How can they control Hong Kong with such a small number of people?
It can only be an outstanding person who controls the local people of Hong Kong.

Just like herding sheep, if you control the lead sheep, you can control the whole flock.

Chen Guozhong was not wrong.

James actually has files on all four of them.

Of course, these files cannot compare to those provided by Chen Guozhong.

"Then... is Wang Sheng's file real?" James quickly and cautiously asked.

The rest doesn't matter.

But Wang Dao's file completely shocked him!

What the hell is this humanoid automatic money-making machine?!
He's incredibly lucky!

He has won no fewer than thirty awards.

There were even two jackpot wins!

Twice!
Some people never win the lottery in their entire lives, but he won twice in four months.

Other things like finding money on the street are just routine occurrences.

James almost split his plasmosphere from jealousy just looking at the files.

How can a person be this lucky?
Chen Guozhong nodded slowly:
"real."

"You mean Ado's luck stat, right?"

“I did ask him.”

"Is there a trick to it?" James couldn't help but ask.

Chen Guozhong was speechless: "There's a trick to this kind of thing?"

James thought about it and agreed. That thing really depends on God... no, this is Hong Kong... it depends on the will of all the gods and Buddhas.

The God of Wealth will grant you great wealth; it will be difficult for you not to prosper.

If the God of Wealth ignores you, then you're a jinx!
“I asked Adao, and he told me that it might be because his parents were in a car accident when he was a child,” Chen Guozhong sighed.

James was dumbfounded:
"What's the reason?"

Chen Guozhong bluntly asked, "Don't you understand?"

"What Ado means is that his deceased parents are protecting him!"

Then he hung up the phone.

James stood there stunned for a long time, then muttered:
"Why didn't my parents get into a car accident?"

It's not surprising that James would have such thoughts. Some people don't even have the concept of parents in their hearts. For example, some brain-dead fans in the fan circle have signatures like "I would trade ten or twenty years of my parents' lifespan for my idol to play a role in a certain drama".

It’s just that!

After receiving Chen Guozhong's promise, James immediately returned to Jardine House with the files.

"Mr. James, is there something you need to see the boss about?" The secretary looked at him with great curiosity.

If her memory serves her correctly, it seems that this Mr. James only came to visit an hour ago, right?
James waved the file folder in his hand:

"I'm here to deliver something that Mr. Simon urgently needs..."

The secretary smiled professionally: "You're very lucky. The boss is in his office right now, but you'll have to wait a bit while I see if he has time."

James could only obediently wait.

He was clearly a policeman, a policeman in the political department, but he also secretly had another identity: a special agent in the telecommunications department.

But here, he can only be treated like an ordinary visitor, without any special treatment whatsoever.

What a bastard!

Damn rich people!

I absolutely have to become a rich person.

A minute later, the secretary came over: "Mr. James, Boss Simon is waiting for you in his office. You have five minutes."

five minutes?
So James got angry.

He was only angry for a moment.

Is Jardine Matheson's entry threshold ridiculously high?
Chen Guozhong is still a wealthy man, but to see him, you just need to knock on the door of the Kowloon Police Station.

Who the hell are you trying to impress with all this airs?
Simon, holding his coffee, glared at James with a hostile expression.
"Officer James, I remember I just assigned you a task, right?"

Are you just giving me the runaround?

James smiled and gently pushed the file in front of him:

"Whether I'm just giving you the runaround or not, you'll know once you see it."

"I bet you had someone gather information about those four people beforehand."

"Let's see if it matches what I've collected."

James suddenly understood.

What Simon values most about himself is intelligence.

Once I give him enough information.

Then why be so reserved?

But not in front of Chen Guozhong.

He's a superintendent at the Kowloon Police Station, wielding power within the legitimate community.

His partners are Liang Kun and others, who wield power in the underworld.

Simon can certainly influence both the legitimate and criminal worlds, but ultimately he doesn't have complete control over them, so there's always a missing layer.

Compared to that, I still have an official status.

James cursed himself for being an idiot, realizing he had been fooled by Simon.

However, it's not too late to realize this now.

Simon opened the file folder that James had sent and examined it very carefully.

Suddenly, he stared at a file, pondering for a long time without saying a word.

James didn't urge him. "Watch, watch. The longer you watch, the more your value will be highlighted."

He wasn't worried that the information was fake.

Do not make jokes.

This was given to him personally by Chen Guozhong. Do billionaires have that much free time?
"Can you guarantee these files are genuine?" Simon asked, frowning.

James calmly replied, "Of course!"

"You can question my character, but you can't question my professional competence."

"I'm a professional at intelligence gathering."

Simon glanced at him and took out a file:
"How can someone be so lucky?"

James chuckled and said:

“Detailed evidence of this kind of thing can be obtained from the Jockey Club.”

"Simon Tai-pan is a member of the Jockey Club, so getting certified should be easy, right?"

Simon cursed inwardly.

Damn intelligence gatherer, couldn't even gather such simple intelligence, deserves to be fired!
No, firing him is too lenient a deal.

This kind of intelligence is very difficult to obtain.

But you're an intelligence gatherer. If you can't even gather this kind of intelligence, what's the point of having you?
Do you really think capitalists are running charitable organizations?
"According to my investigation, Wang's luck is astonishing."

James said while sipping his coffee.

"At Qiankun Film and Television Company, the person that all the employees like the most is Wang."

"Usually, after he gets a windfall, he will give the company employees a few red envelopes."

"This is a custom from my hometown."

"It means to share his good fortune with others."

Simon glared at him:
"To be precise, in the culture of my hometown, if he doesn't spend some of this unexpected wealth, it might affect his luck."

“I’ve been here longer than you, and I know Hong Kong’s customs better.”

“Of course, of course!” James nodded repeatedly. “But you probably don’t know how much money Wang Zaigui Qiankun Film and Television Company spent in just three months.”

Simon cursed:
"James, your habit of keeping things a secret is really bad."

James' smile faded, and his expression became complicated.
"According to my incomplete statistics, this guy has spent a full eight figures at Qiankun Film and Television Company!"

Simon's eyes widened:
"What did you say?"

"Eight figures!" James exclaimed. "That's enough to buy a luxury mansion in the Mid-Levels and renovate it!"

Ximen said expressionlessly:
"The luxury homes on the hillside don't need any renovation at all; you can basically move in right away."

James sighed, "This doesn't even include their share of the box office revenue from their first movie."

Simon frowned and said, "Qiankun Films' first movie? Isn't that 'Chasing Girls'?"

"I remember the box office reached eleven million, right?"

“Yes!” James was green with envy. “But Li and Wang distributed the company’s rightful four million dollars in profits as gifts to the company’s employees!”

"The employees here only earn three thousand a month, but their various benefits are worth more than one hundred thousand!!"

"Many employees have bought houses after working here for just one month."

"My God, houses are a real luxury in Hong Kong."

James wasn't lying; many employees of Qiankun Film Company really did buy houses. Of course, not like the Repulse Bay mansions where Liang Kun and Wang Dao live.

But if you don't pursue luxury homes, 100,000 is enough to buy a house for the whole family.

This kind of treatment is only available to Qiankun Film and Television Company.

Ximen suddenly said:
Have you done any research on the king?

James immediately issued a statement:

"I'm only responsible for providing intelligence; don't expect me to deal with him."

Ximen said with dissatisfaction:
"You are a senior agent of the Telecommunications Department."

“That’s right, I’m a senior agent,” James said seriously. “But I’m just a senior agent. Wang is a man blessed by the gods.”

"I'm just a mortal, I absolutely don't want to go against a demigod."

"That luck... it's simply not something an ordinary person could have."

According to Eastern tradition, the king is a person with great fortune.

"They always manage to turn misfortune into good fortune and adversity into blessing."

"And their opponents can only pray they're not too unlucky."

At this point, James stood up excitedly.

“You can learn from the file I gave you how outrageous Wang’s luck is.”

"That's just data on paper."

"However, when the king becomes a living person and stands in front of you, you will know the overwhelming pressure."

"No, not just the king, all four of them are chosen by the gods!"

"Four months ago, Li Gang was released from prison and then met Wang."

“Hung Hing gave Lee the title of leader, but did not give him all the manpower, and let him build his own territory in Mong Kok.”

"This is a hellish start."

“Mong Kok is home to numerous triads; some streets can have as many as seven or eight triads stationed there.”

“Every night is a night of revelry for the gang’s short mules.”

Even the police don't want to patrol at this time.

"They want to establish their territory in places like this."

There were only two of them!

"But their choice was completely beyond what others could have imagined."

"The Ni family is the dominant force in Yau Tsim Mong, and they still are today."

"The two men chose the territory of two high-ranking officials from the Ni family as their target."

"I still haven't found out what method they used."

"But right after that day, they owned two more streets!"

"This became the beginning of their hegemony!"

"Anyone who opposed them on the road became a dead man."

Simon stared at James in disbelief, and it took him a long time to come to his senses before he quickly said:

"James, calm down. Aren't you exaggerating their claims?"

"Exaggeration?" James shook his head with a wry smile. "You don't understand!"

Simon was furious.

I don't understand?
Maybe I really don't understand!
But you can't say it outright.

James suddenly said:

"The two quickly rose to prominence in the martial arts world; I noticed them as soon as I arrived."

"So, I set them up."

Simon paused for a moment, then calmed down.

James sighed:
“I found a drug dealer who became sworn brothers with Li while he was in prison.”

“I made him do one thing: to drag Li into this mess no matter what.”

"Li has never sold cigarettes; this is a well-known secret in Hong Kong."

"I want him to drag Li down with him and then use him for my own purposes."

"Agents always have some methods, right?"

"Then……"

Ximen casually said:
"Li ruined your plans?"

“Not Lee!” James shouted, “It’s God, it’s all the gods!”

Simon looked at James like he was a lunatic:

"You've developed paranoia, haven't you?"

James looked at Simon with a mocking gaze; this was the first time he had ever looked at him like that.

"Before Li and Wang could make a move, Ba Bi died."

"You have no idea who killed him."

“Li’s rival in the gang killed Ba Bi for him.”

Ximen was taken aback:
"what?"

"Are you joking?"

James sighed:
"I'm not kidding."

"Li is a man blessed by God."

He then recounted everything that had happened to him since his debut.

James made absolutely no attempt to hide anything.

He recounted all the stories, such as how he tried to bribe Ba Bi, only to have him killed by Siu B, who was then killed by Chiang Tin-sang, and Chiang Tin-sang was ultimately killed by Chan Ho-nam.

Simon was dumbfounded!

What the hell is this plot?
Oh, it started with James setting a trap for Liang Kun through Ba Bi, and then Jiang Tiansheng, Xi B and others, sensing the danger, were about to give Liang Kun a hard time, but Liang Kun did nothing and all his opponents fell down.

And the kind that leaves no future trouble?
Is this still a person?

No wonder James said these guys were chosen by God.

That's actually a bit like it.

wrong!

Isn't James still standing right here?

"After the failure of the Babi incident, I put pressure on Hung Hing while selecting two more people, the kind of drug dealers from other triads."

"Then……"

James recounted the story again with a blank expression.

Simon gasped.

Goodness, you're in such a bad situation?

He was threatened by three triads—He Xing Sheng, Lian Sheng, and Hong Xing—and was confined to bed for a month.

He was completely unharmed.

Do you think I can still threaten them?

James retorted expressionlessly, without a trace of frustration on his face.

Simon also fell silent.

James remained a senior superintendent in the police station's political department and a senior agent in the Chongqing Telecommunications Bureau.

But what good is that?

The opponent is different now.

They've already been promoted!

The newly formed group of four Chinese tycoons are so formidable that even the Dude, let alone James, dares not underestimate them.

Even if it's just myself, I won't directly engage in conflict.

James said sincerely to Simon:
“Big Class, I suggest you study The Rise of the King carefully.”

"For example, how he made money from the stock market."

"I also looked into his case..."

Ximen asked, puzzled:
"You study them?"

“Who wouldn’t want to be the next billionaire like them, who became famous almost overnight?” James said sincerely. “However, the more I study them, the more I feel that…they are blessed by God.”

“Look at Wang, it seems like he just wants to invest, and then he randomly buys a stock on the stock market, agrees on a certain price to sell it at, and then doesn’t care anymore.”

"From a third-party perspective, it's practically like giving stockbrokers a long-term livelihood."

"Then, our Fog City Capital's plan came out all at once."

"Wang made his first fortune in the stock market without lifting a finger!"

"By the way..."

James asked for advice earnestly.
"These plans weren't a trap set by Wang after he received prior intelligence, were they?"

"Nonsense!" Simon shouted. "We reviewed the situation. Wang's actions were at least ten days before we carried out our plan. How could he have obtained the intelligence?"

"Is it based on precognition?!"

James pressed further, "All three?"

Simon sighed: "All three of them!"

James remained silent for a long time.

Then he sincerely gave a piece of advice.
“Boss Simon, I don’t know what you’re up to.”

"If it's targeting Wang or Li, I suggest you give up."

“Look back, this is no longer just about being chosen by the gods.”

"This is God feeding him."

"Any obstacle that stands in his way will be mercilessly swept into hell."

"If you still want to hire me to deal with these four..."

"Please forgive me, I will not answer."

"No matter how high the price you offer."
