Hong Kong Film Intelligence King

Chapter 311 Wife, do you want to change jobs?
"Back so late? Was there a lot going on?"

Wang Dao took Le Huizhen's coat with great concern.

Le Huizhen was in high spirits: "I'm definitely tired, but it's fulfilling."

"You really are a career woman," Wang Dao shook his head.

Le Huizhen disagreed: "Others might want this opportunity, but they don't even have the necessary conditions."

Wang Dao made her a cup of tea:

"Is the movie theater thing troublesome?"

"It's not troublesome." Le Huizhen looked at Wang Dao and had no choice but to nod in agreement, "It is a little troublesome."

"However, it's not a big problem."

Wang Dao raised an eyebrow:
"Who gave our CEO a hard time? I'll deal with him later."

Le Huizhen drank a cup of tea before saying:
"It's just a minor issue; some people are causing trouble at the movie theater."

Wang Dao frowned and said:
Which district?

Le Huizhen shrugged:

"New Territories".

"Kowloon and Hong Kong Island are fine, but the New Territories are a real headache."

Wang Dao laughed:

"That's alright, I'll call Mr. Jiang later."

"If there's trouble at the movie theater, just call Mr. Jiang first."

Le Huizhen sighed:
There are just too many triads in Hong Kong.

"The troublemakers weren't a big gang, just a small gang of a dozen or so people."

"But as soon as a few people cause trouble, that movie theater gets a terrible reputation."

"However, it's all the same everywhere in Hong Kong."

"In comparison, our movie theater chain is doing quite well."

She finally couldn't help but complain.

"When will Hong Kong be free of triads?"

Wang Dao shrugged:

"Then we'll have to wait a while."

"Unless Hong Kong returns to its homeland."

"Otherwise, given the attitude of foreigners, they'll only care about making money for me. They won't care about the plight of the lower classes in Hong Kong."

"We must truly return to our hometown."

Le Huizhen frowned and said:

"Is there any such thing as a fake return to Hong Kong after its handover?"

Wang Dao smiled but did not answer.

Le Huizhen sighed:
"I'm doing alright here, it's much harder for Bozi."

Wang Dao was taken aback:
"Isn't Kowloon Motor Bus running quite well?"

Le Huizhen spread her hands:
"That's not wrong."

"The problem is, there are always some people who want to get their hands on Kowloon Motor Bus."

"I heard from Bozi that the company's security team fights every day."

Wang Dao asked in bewilderment:
"The guard?"

Le Huizhen explained:

"They're the thugs from Hung Hing."

"Kowloon Motor Bus is considered Hung Hing's most important asset."

"Now there are two hundred routes, and two thousand people rely on Kowloon Motor Bus for their livelihood."

"This is real work, not some kind of club showing off horses."

"Bo Zi discussed it with Jiang Sheng and they assembled a guard team."

"Anyway, I get into fights with people every now and then."

"According to Bozi, it seems that the other party is asking for some kind of toll or something."

Wang Dao laughed and scolded:
"What a load of bull!"

"If they're so capable, let them set up toll booths on Nathan Road and see if the police station doesn't take action against them!"

"The road is public, why don't they charge other people tolls?"

Le Huizhen nodded repeatedly:
"That's right."

"Bozi is very angry and is preparing to take on certain gangs."

Wang Dao asked curiously:
"Brother Kun didn't tell me this."

Le Huizhen shook her head:

"Bozi didn't tell Kun Ge."

"Now she has a strong army, people and money, and you and Brother Kun are busy with big things."

"We don't want to distract you."

Wang Dao laughed loudly:
"Wife, you're so good to me."

Le Huizhen chuckled.

Wang Dao thought for a moment and said:

"Your idea is good, but sometimes it's better for men to step up."

Le Huizhen said in surprise:
"Did we handle it poorly?"

Wang Dao shook his head:
"You handled it very well."

"However, we can handle the brutal stuff."

"You are too kind."

Le Huizhen's mouth dropped open:

"what?"

Wang Dao said calmly:
"Kun and I both came from the bottom."

"You don't understand the survival philosophy of the organization as well as we do."

"Taking an inch and wanting a mile is an essential skill for every club."

"If you don't beat them to a pulp in one go, they'll think you're easy to bully."

Le Huizhen said incredulously:
"Have they lost their minds?"

"Our financial resources are something they can only dream of."

"Under these circumstances, they still dared to attack us?"

Wang Dao smiled and said:
"Bullying the weak and fearing the strong is a common human trait, but it is especially evident in gangs."

"Most of these organizations are parasites on society."

"Collecting protection money...it's bound to involve bullying the weak and fearing the strong."

"For example, there's the Taipingshan branch in Dongxing, but do you think they dare to collect protection money?"

Le Huizhen immediately smiled.

Would Dongxing dare?

Not even a little bit!
The moment they open their mouths, the top leader might personally lead a team to wipe them out.

Protection money can only be collected from ordinary people.

Those important figures are not to be trifled with in the slightest.

Le Huizhen asked:
"How are the negotiations with Simon going?"

Wang Dao shrugged:

"Jardine Matheson definitely wants to redeem Jardine Matheson, but they don't have much time left."

Le Huizhen asked:
Has something changed?

Wang Dao mocked:
"There's a clever person stirring up trouble behind our backs, trying to create difficulties for us."

Le Huizhen exclaimed in surprise:

"what?"

The reason she didn't tell Wang Dao about the movie theater was that she knew he was currently busy negotiating with the Jardine Matheson Group for a sum of HK$2.2 billion.

Le Huizhen is a sensible woman; she doesn't want to cause trouble for the man at this time.

Unexpectedly, even so, Wang Dao encountered trouble.

"Honey, what happened?"

Wang Dao shrugged:

“Simon’s attitude is very clear: he is determined to redeem the land.”

"The opinions of the Jardine Matheson board are similar."

"The problem lies with their board of directors."

"Under the influence of others, Jardine Matheson's board of directors is gradually showing signs of slipping out of Simon's control."

Le Huizhen covered her mouth:
"Can't you?"

Wang Dao said earnestly:
"real!"

Le Huizhen frowned and said:

"What should I do?"

Wang Dao smiled:
"Just enjoy the show."

Le Huizhen reminded:

"Honey, you can't let your guard down."

"This is no joke."

“Jardine Matheson is the head of the four major foreign trading companies. If others dare to provoke us under these circumstances, they must not be afraid of Jardine Matheson.”

“We acquired Hutchison Whampoa, which is one of the Big Four accounting firms. If they dare to make a move, they must have something to rely on.”

"be careful."

Wang Dao countered with a question:
"Then tell me, who is doing this in secret?"

Le Huizhen thought for a moment and said:
"Honey, could it be the Governor's mansion?"

"Or perhaps the Fog City?"

Wang Dao asked with interest:

"Why do you think so?"

Le Huizhen naturally said:

"It's very simple."

"Jardine Matheson and Whampoa are both among the four major foreign trading companies, and they possess enormous resources."

"I really can't imagine which foreign firm in Hong Kong would dare to take on two at once."

"If we exclude the influence of the business community, then it can only be the government."

"It's either the Governor's Mansion or the Fog City."

"Honey, am I wrong?"

Wang Dao shrugged:

“In general terms, you are absolutely right.”

Le Huizhen suddenly understood:
"It wasn't them?"

"Is he really from the business world?"

"Who's so bold?"

Wang Dao laughed and said:

"It's more than just bold."

"The other side is really strong."

Le Huizhen shook her head, puzzled:
"I don't know."

"Who on earth is so bold?"

Wang Dao chuckled lightly:
There's one thing you're wrong about.

"Although the foreign firms are powerful, they are not invincible."

"If we really consider the size, it's impossible for me to steal property from Jardine Matheson and then completely acquire Hutchison Whampoa."

Le Huizhen was taken aback.

"A huge size that cannot exert corresponding power is just a big size."

We need to find a way to unleash our full potential.

Le Huizhen said incredulously:
"Honey, do you mean someone is trying to replicate your achievements?"

Wang Dao clapped his hands and said:
“I told you, Ah Zhen, you are very perceptive.”

"Yes, someone is trying to do what I did."

"Since I was able to start from scratch, swallow a piece of Jardine Matheson, and also swallow Hutchison Whampoa."

"If someone with ulterior motives sees this, they will definitely think..."

"If the kingly way can do it, why can't I?"

Le Huizhen scoffed:
"Are they dreaming?"

"My husband is a genius, one in a million. How could they be?"

"Watching others carry a load makes it seem effortless, but carrying it yourself can break your back."

"In this world, what others can do is not necessarily what I can do."

Wang Daoxiao grew increasingly pleased:

"My wife is my confidante."

Le Huizhen shrugged:

"I was just telling the truth."

"Honey, it seems you know who launched the sneak attack."

Wang Dao nodded slightly.

"Yes, I understand!"

Lok Wai-chun asked curiously:

"Who is it?"

Wang Dao stared at her intently, leaving Le Huizhen completely bewildered.

"Honey, what are you doing?"

Wang Dao asked, "Wife, have you ever thought about changing your major?"

Le Huizhen was taken aback and said:

"what?"

Wang Dao shrugged:

“I was originally thinking that once this matter was over, I would make you the director of a TV station.”

Lok Wai-chun clapped her hands and said:

"Okay, okay!"

Wang Dao smiled and continued:
"But then I thought about it again, and it would be a bit of a waste for you to be the director of a TV station."

Le Huizhen quickly said:

"Don't be wronged, don't be wronged."

The kingly way disagrees:

"The manager of a movie theater is actually quite similar to the director of a TV station."

"In my opinion, it's a waste of talent."

Le Huizhen was very puzzled. Was this a waste of talent?

She was just a presenter on TVB Jade before.

Wang Dao smiled and said:

"Honey, what do you think about you becoming a bank manager?"

Le Huizhen was dumbfounded:
"A bank manager? Me?!"

Wang Dao countered with a question:
"no?"

Le Huizhen smiled wryly:

"Stop joking."

Wang Dao said solemnly:
"I'm not joking!"

Le Huizhen exclaimed in surprise:

"Why did you suddenly become a bank manager?"

Wang Dao casually remarked:
"that."

"The person behind the instigation of Simon to fight us is a bank tycoon."

"Since they have declared war on me."

"If I don't return it, won't people look down on me?"

"At this point, if I don't teach them a lesson, can I still call myself a king?"

Le Huizhen covered her mouth, saying incredulously:
"Honey, are you serious?"

Wang Dao laughed heartily:

"Do you expect me to fake it?"

"I've already said it, you're overqualified for the position of general manager."

Le Huizhen was completely stunned.

To be honest, I never dared to dream of being in this position before.

After all, she was just the general manager of TVB Jade before.

I never expected this to happen.

"Honey...I...I lack confidence."

Wang Dao said softly:
"Didn't I say before that a lack of confidence stems from the unknown?"

"This is very simple. As long as someone guides you, and you put in the effort to learn, it's that easy."

"Those things are just a few different kinds."

"If you control personnel and finances, you have control of the company."

"The rest is just marketing stuff."

"Take your time."

Wang Dao blinked and asked with a smile:

"Want to give it a try?"

Le Huizhen gritted her teeth and said:

"Okay, I'll give it a try."

"However, it would be best to send one more person."

Wang Dao shrugged:

"no problem."

Le Huizhen reminded:

"However, since my position is going to change, I need to choose a successor first."

Wang Dao laughed and said:

"That's right!"

"Don't worry."

"I'll pick out some good ones for you."

"If you have any good talent, you can recommend them to me."

Le Huizhen smiled and said:
"My husband is the best."

Wang Dao chuckled and said:

"Where's the good?"

Le Huizhen said fiercely:

"Anywhere is fine."

The two looked at each other, their eyes seemingly able to form a silky barrier.

Le Huizhen only felt hot:

"Honey, how about we go somewhere else?"

Just as Wang Dao was about to reply, the phone suddenly rang.

Le Huizhen said speechlessly:

"Can we make a rule from now on that we won't answer the phone at night?"

Wang Dao held the phone up to Le Huizhen's face.

"Do you dare not answer?"

Le Huizhen was speechless.

The caller ID shows a call from Chen Guozhong!

“Ado, I’ve already interrogated him and found out that Williams was instructed by William to install a bug in Simon’s office.”

"He hadn't been installing the listening devices for very long."

"It was installed after James went to Simon's office."

Wang Dao instantly clarified the relationships between them:
"So, they didn't plan this from the beginning?"

Chen Guozhong nodded:

"Yes, it was a spur-of-the-moment decision."

Wang Dao sneered:
"It seems that my agreement with Simon has taken everyone else by surprise."

"No, perhaps it's because Simon actually agreed to redeem Real Estate for 2.2 billion that shocked someone."

He couldn't sit still any longer.

Chen Guozhong agreed:

"I think so too."

“While Hongkong Land is indeed Jardine Matheson’s core asset, HK$2.2 billion is far too much of a premium.”

“They would definitely refuse if we switched to another large class.”

"but……"

"The current situation is that the other party has not only not refused."

"On the contrary, they actively facilitated this matter."

"It has harmed the interests of certain people."

Wang Dao corrected:
"It's not necessarily about harming other people's interests, or it's just that some people simply don't like it."

Chen Guozhong nodded slowly:
"That's understandable."

"After all, our rise to power is not a good thing for others."

"The other side has no other options."

"This is the only way to stop us."

Wang Dao smiled and asked:
"What are you going to do?"

Chen Guozhong asked:
"Tell me, should I go directly to the mastermind, or should I follow the proper procedures?"

Wang Dao laughed heartily:

“Brother Chung, you’re a superintendent in the Kowloon Serious Crimes Unit.”

"I think you should follow the procedures."

He paused, then said,

"Brother Zhong, don't you think your position is a bit too low?"

Chen Guozhong bluntly stated:

"Based on my resume, I think I'm capable of achieving my current position at my age."

"However, given my status, the position of police superintendent is indeed a bit too small."

Wang Dao smiled very happily.

"That's right, what billionaire would only be a lowly police superintendent?"

“If you weren’t at the police station, none of our usual interactions would involve a superintendent.”

Billionaires typically deal with people at the department head level or above.

Normally, it would be beneath one's dignity to associate with junior police officers of the rank of superintendent.

Chen Guozhong smiled and said:
"It seems I have no choice but to make a scene."

Wang Dao shrugged:

"That's inevitable."

"You just need to take your time investigating."

"I'll take care of the rest!"

Chen Guozhong's heart skipped a beat:
"What else do you want to do?"

Wang Dao shrugged:

I'll give you a little help.

Chen Guozhong smiled and said:
"Okay, then I'll wait for your good news."

Wang Dao hung up the phone.

Le Huizhen looked at him curiously:
"Honey, I always feel that your relationship with Brother Zhong is quite special."

Wang Dao smiled and countered with a question:
"What's so special about it?"

Le Huizhen thought for a moment and said:
“I always felt that you trusted each other more than just business partners.”

"Just like... just like your relationship with Brother Kun."

Wang Dao teased her:

"Kun and I are also business partners."

Le Huizhen shook her head:

"You two are brothers who have been through thick and thin together."

She frowned.

"It's strange, the feeling I get about your relationship with Brother Zhong is the same."

Wang Dao laughed heartily:

"My wife is much more perceptive."

Le Huizhen opened her eyes wide:

"Is it true?"

She was very curious.

"What exactly is your relationship with Brother Zhong?"

Wang Dao didn't hide it from her:
“Brother Zhong used to be my boss.”

Le Huizhen did not believe it:
"Honey, stop joking."

"Brother Chung is a policeman. How could you, a gangster, be his subordinate?"

Suddenly, she realized what was happening and exclaimed incredulously,
"Husband...you...you..."

Wang Dao chuckled and said:

"It's just what you think."

Le Huizhen's mouth dropped open:

"Honey, are you really an undercover agent?"

The kingly way disagrees:

"Yup!"

Le Huizhen quickly said:

"Kun and Binni don't know, right?"

Wang Dao smiled and said:
Whether they know it or not doesn't matter.

Le Huizhen thought about it and realized it was true.

Wang Dao has the entire roster of Hung Hing's top lieutenants. If Wang Dao wants to deal with Hung Hing, all of Hung Hing's cadres must be sent to Stanley.

Besides, if it weren't for Wang Dao, how could Liang Kun and Han Bin have achieved their current status?
How did Hung Hing come to have such a status?
It really doesn't matter whether you know it or not.

"But, you don't have to worry."

“Brother Zhong burned my file a long time ago.”

Le Huizhen asked, puzzled:

Why was it burned?

Wang Dao countered with a question:
"If we don't burn it, are we going to leave ourselves vulnerable to their incriminating evidence?"
