Hong Kong Film Intelligence King

Chapter 348 The Little Fatty is a Lucky Star

"No way, you didn't call me first, but called Brother Dao first?"

"The key point is that Brother Dao actually accepted it?"

"You really dare!"

Yaowen stared wide-eyed at Fatty Wang lying on the bed.

At this moment, Fatty Wang was in a terrible state, his entire body wrapped up like a mummy.

His face was covered in bruises.

The chubby boy grunted:

"I'm Brother Dao's underling, how dare that guy hit me?"

“If an ordinary person hit me, I definitely wouldn’t call Brother Dao, because the other person isn’t a good person!”

Yaowen said speechlessly:

"No matter what the other party is like, you shouldn't have called Brother Dao. He's so busy with work, how could he have time to deal with something like this?"

The chubby boy looked aggrieved: "I'm scared!"

With difficulty, he raised his hand and pointed to himself.
"I almost died!"

Yaowen sighed:
"Never mind, I'll look for Mr. Jiang later."

"If they dare to hit you, they're slapping Hung Hing in the face. We won't let them get away with it."

The chubby boy quickly asked:
"Can it be done?"

Yaowen thought for a moment and said:
"do not know."

The chubby boy almost choked to death:

"How could I not know?"

Yaowen's expression was solemn:
“I checked who beat you up; that guy is tough to deal with.”

The chubby boy asked:
"Is it great?"

Yaowen said speechlessly:

"You've been spoiled by Brother Dao too, you can't even remember the big shots in the underworld."

The chubby boy disagreed:
"I don't care about the big shots in the underworld, all I know is that I'm Brother Dao's younger brother!"

Yaowen gave a thumbs up.

The chubby boy is right.

Even the most powerful figures in the martial arts world can't defeat the king.

That's impossible!

The chubby boy turned to the other mummy and said:

"Don't worry, brother."

"As long as Brother Dao takes action, everything will be fine."

Yaowen sighed:
"I wonder if Brother Dao is free?"

"I'm telling you, this is a big deal for us, but it's a small deal for Dao Ge."

I'll go find Jiang Sheng later.

"Don't worry, I won't let anyone bully the people in our company."

The chubby boy nodded, looking aggrieved.
"Awen, you have to stand up for me!"

"Who's bullying them?" a voice called out.

Yaowen turned his head and was shocked. He stood at attention as if he had been electrocuted.
"Brother Dao, what brings you here?"

Wang Dao looked at the chubby boy and shook his head, saying:

"If I hadn't come, wouldn't this guy have really gotten bullied?"

"Tell me, who beat you up like this?"

The chubby boy's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Brother Dao, is it really you?"

Wang Dao nodded:
"it's me."

The chubby boy burst into tears:
"Waaaaah, Brother Dao, I've been bullied!"

His crying startled everyone in the ward, who all stared at him in disbelief.

Wang Dao quipped:
"Goodness, you didn't cry even after being beaten up like that, but you cried after seeing me."

So you think I'm scarier than the person who beat you up?

The chubby boy sobbed as he said:

"No, I, I'm just too excited."

"Are you the richest man in Hong Kong?!"

"He's usually so busy, I never expected him to come as soon as I called."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Yaowen quickly said:

"Fatty, you know Brother Dao is busy with work, so hurry up and say what you want to say."

The chubby boy tried to stop crying and said to Yaowen:

"You have no sense at all, don't you see it's inconvenient for me?"

"Could you get me some paper?"

Yaowen hurriedly grabbed some tissues and wiped the little fat boy's face.

The chubby boy then recounted what had happened.

It turns out that the chubby guy is riding high lately—he's the leading director of Qiankun Films, a rising force in the film industry, and he gets compliments from people in the circle wherever he goes.

However, recently we wanted to film a movie but we were missing a female lead.

Originally, Qiankun Films didn't need too many female leads; actresses like Bozi, Le Huizhen, and Vanzai would all be suitable.

Three months ago, the chubby boy could certainly have used them as the main characters.

Three months later, the chubby boy himself gave up on the idea.

They're either board members or CEOs; their social status is much higher than that of movie stars.

How could I possibly have time to film?

That's absolutely impossible.

The chubby boy was dissatisfied with several of the recruits he had hired and was constantly worried about the matter.

His path was completely different from that of Wang Dao in his previous life. He didn't make so many bad films, so naturally he had high aspirations—he wanted every film to be a masterpiece.

Naturally, the requirements in all aspects are also high.

The female lead wasn't in a good mood and ended up eating at a fancy restaurant. Little did she know, the restaurant next door was poaching her.

The chubby boy didn't take it seriously at first, but when he turned his head, he discovered that the lead actor who had been poached was a perfect match for his female lead.

Now, the chubby guy has also joined the ranks of those poaching talent.

Just as they were having a good time, disaster struck.

A man came over and beat him and another guy who was poaching him up without saying a word.

This chubby guy has never suffered such a loss since his debut!

He immediately shouted:
"Where do you think you are, daring to hit me?"

"Do you know that I am a famous director at Qiankun Film and Television?"

The other party stopped.

The chubby boy thought that the reputation of Qiankun Film and Television had intimidated him.

Little did they expect that when this guy turned around, he would call a car full of people who not only beat him and another person to the ground, but also smashed the upscale restaurant to pieces.

If it weren't for the woman protecting them, the two of them would have been beaten to death by that guy.

Wang Dao exclaimed in surprise:
"Aren't you just jealous?"

The chubby boy was so upset:
"no."

"I'm a big director at Qiankun Film and Television. Countless women want to sleep with me. Why would I be jealous?"

Countless women in Hong Kong, whose belts are loose enough, dream of becoming leading ladies in movies so they can snag a rich husband and transform from sparrows into phoenixes.

The chubby boy really wouldn't be so jealous as to compete with someone over something like this.

He was deeply influenced by the Way of the King.

Wang Dao is so powerful, yet he usually keeps a very low profile.

The little fat boy's achievements are far inferior to those of the king, so why doesn't he keep a low profile?

Incidentally, because of this, the veterans in the film industry praised the chubby boy highly, saying that he came from a family with a strong tradition of learning and had not disgraced Wang Dalin.

Yaowen quickly said:

"Brother Dao, it was Ding Xiaoxie who made the move."

Wang Dao was taken aback:
"Ding Xiaoxie?"

"Crabs from the Chung Ching Society?"

Yaowen nodded:

"Yes!"

The Way of the King:

"What would you have done if I hadn't come?"

Yaowen said calmly:

“Ah Jing is one of our people, and our people cannot be bullied for nothing.”

"I'm going to talk to Mr. Jiang first."

"Whether he agrees or not, first take men to sweep the five streets of Chung Ching Society."

Wang Dao nodded slightly.

This is something Yaowen is capable of doing.

Wang Dao looked at another mummy:

"Are you Chen Taotao?"

"Chen Wanxian's son?"

The mummy exclaimed in surprise:
"Does Wang Sheng know me?"

Wang Dao laughed and said:

"I was originally planning to ask you to do something, but now it's all good, I don't have to make a special trip to Universal Books."

Chen Taotao exclaimed in surprise:
"Do you really know me?"

The Way of the King:

"You've met Chen Wanxian?"

Chen Taotao nodded:

"I've seen it before."

Wang Dao then asked:
"You want Chen Wanxian out of the game?"

Chen Taotao gritted his teeth and said:

"Yes!"

Wang Dao laughed and said:

"Your plan is to acquire Chen Wanxian's company and then investigate his past, right?"

Chen Taotao was shocked.

Wang Dao explained:
“I have just taken over a bank and need specialized personnel to help me.”

"You are among them."

"Are you interested in helping me?"

Chen Taotao said in astonishment:

HSBC?

Wang Dao nodded:
"Correct."

"We haven't found a suitable person for the general manager position."

"Want to give it a try?"

Chen Taotao was immediately caught in a dilemma.

His current position is Vice President of the Investment Department at Citibank.

He's called a vice president, but he's really just an employee.

His position is incomparable to that of the general manager of HSBC.

Wang Dao didn't rush him, giving him plenty of time to think it over.

Chen Taotao gritted his teeth and said:

"Wang Sheng, I want Chen Wanxian out of the game."

Wang Dao countered with a question:
"If you were the general manager of HSBC, wouldn't it be easier for you to oust Chen Wanxian?"

Chen Taotao shook his head:

“My current position is just right. If I really become the HSBC tycoon, it will be difficult for me to make a move against him.”

"There is suspicion of abusing power for personal gain."

The king's way was silent:
"So you're a good person after all."

"These days, good people always suffer."

“Here’s what we’ll do. You can resign from Citibank as soon as you turn around.”

“I have connections with Citibank, so they shouldn’t stop you.”

"As for getting Chen Wanxian out, that's very simple."

Chen Taotao quickly said, "I am certain that Chen Wanxian's accounts are unclear. As long as we acquire his company, once we check the accounts, he will definitely be arrested."

Wang Dao smiled and shook his head:

Why go through all that trouble?

"Chen Wanxian's companies don't have any good assets; this guy specializes in financial operations."

"If you want him out of the game, just investigate his company."

Wang Dao took the phone from Xu Zhengyang and made a call to James:

"it's me."

"Investigate Chen Wanxian; his accounts are not clean. Send him to jail."

"As a gift I gave to the General Manager of HSBC."

After hanging up the phone, Wang Dao laughed.
"Alright, just stay here in the hospital and relax. That guy won't get away."

Chen Taotao's mouth dropped open:

"Is that all right?"

Wang Dao laughed and said:

"Now that it's confirmed that Chen Wanxian has committed a crime, wouldn't it be simpler to deal with him through legal means?"

"I am, after all, the richest man in Hong Kong. It's not surprising that I have some connections."

"Actually, if you were in the position of general manager of HSBC, you could do what I did."

"After receiving the gift, remember to report to HSBC after you recover from your injury."

Chen Taotao's mouth was dry, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

The Way of the King:

"Don't want to?"

Chen Taotao gritted his teeth and said:

"willing."

"Thank you for your appreciation, Mr. Wang."

Wang Dao nodded slightly.

"Take good care of yourself."

He stood up and said to Wang Jingjing,
"Little Fatty, you should also take good care of your injuries."

“Now Chung Ching Society has not only beaten you, but also my future general manager of HSBC.”

"Don't worry, there won't be any more Chung Ching Society members."

The chubby boy was overjoyed:
"Thank you, Brother Dao."

Before leaving, Wang Dao took out two red envelopes, one for the chubby boy and one for Chen Taotao.

"Hey, take good care of your injury."

"Yaowen, take good care of them both."

Yaowen dared not be negligent:

"Don't worry, Brother Dao, I will take good care of them."

Wang Dao waved his hand:
"Alright, I'm off."

Yaowen quickly got up to see him off.

Chen Taotao said to the chubby boy incredulously:
"Is this really Wang Sheng, the richest Chinese man in Hong Kong?"

The chubby boy said smugly:

"Didn't you confirm it?"

"Let me tell you, Brother Dao is a real loyal friend."

"I'm just a small-time director. When I first met Brother Dao, he wasn't as powerful as he is now."

"The gap between us now is enormous."

“But when I called, Brother Dao came right away.”

Chen Taotao nodded repeatedly:
"That's right."

"It's rare to see such a kind and compassionate wealthy person."

The chubby boy immediately said:

"Brother, you and I must stick with Brother Dao."

"Brother Dao will not treat you unfairly."

He recounted the details of his interactions with Wang Dao.

This was the little chubby boy's shining moment.

Chen Taotao felt a mix of emotions upon hearing this.

Wang Dao is the richest man in Hong Kong, yet he has not forgotten the friends he made in his youth.

As soon as the chubby boy made the call, the person came right away.

Try it on a rich person?
Chen Taotao immediately thought of Chen Wanxian.

He and Chen Wanxian were not friends, but father and son.

Chen Wanxian was his adoptive father, but he never used a single penny of Chen Wanxian's money.

Chen Taotao is an illegitimate child.

When his mother was dying, she wanted to see Chen Wanxian. Chen Taotao deliberately wore simple clothes to see him, but Chen Wanxian thought that the other party was there to extort money, so he threw six thousand yuan at him and sent him away.

Chen Taotao's mother never saw Chen Wanxian before she died.

Don't rest your eyes!

Originally, Chen Taotao had no intention of acknowledging Chen Wanxian. To him, his father, who only gave birth to him but did not raise him, was practically a stranger.

He never wanted to have any contact with Chen Wanxian in his entire life.

However, none of her mother's last wishes were fulfilled, which left Chen Taotao with only anger towards Chen Wanxian.

Since you're so heartless, don't blame me for being ruthless towards you!
I might just beat you down!
In comparison, the ideals of the kingly way are almost as lofty as those of a sage.

Yaowen was startled when he returned:
"Little fatty, you're really amazing."

"You've become familiar with Chen Sheng so quickly?"

The chubby boy said in a very casual manner:

"What Chen Sheng? That's A Tao."

Yaowen was speechless. He said to Chen Taotao:
"Mr. Chen, if there's anything you need, just let me know."

"I'll help you prepare."

The chubby boy angrily said:

"Awen, you're discriminating against me."

Yaowen shrugged:

"Yes, that's me!"

The chubby boy looked at him incredulously:
"You shamelessly admitted it?!"

"We are brothers!"

Yaowen nodded:

"Yes, we're brothers."

“But Mr. Chen… he’s the future general manager of HSBC.”

"Shouldn't I take this opportunity to curry favor with them?"

The chubby boy thought about it and agreed, so he forced a smile and said:
"Tao, you don't look down on us, do you?"

"Since we got beaten up together, we've been through thick and thin together, right?"

Chen Taotao laughed:
"Ah Jing, of course!"

"We are friends."

Yaowen secretly gave the chubby boy a thumbs up.

Men's friendships are very pure; sometimes they become friends after just one meeting.

The chubby boy sighed with regret.
"Speaking of which, we are destined to meet."

"I was looking for a female lead, and you were looking for an assistant, so we ended up working together."

Chen Taotao laughed:
"Tingting is a financial reporter, and she is very talented."

The chubby boy exclaimed in surprise:

"not good!"

The two of them looked over at the same time.

Yaowen thought he was worried about the Zhongqing Society, so he said:
"Are you worried about the Chung Ching Society?"

"Don't worry, if Brother Dao says a word, the Zhongqing Society won't be able to cause trouble for long."

The chubby boy asked in astonishment:

"Who said I was worried about Chung Ching Society?"

"It was indeed a behemoth when I faced it, but to Brother Dao, the Zhongqing Society is nothing."

"Brother Dao said it's going to be finished, and it's definitely going to be finished."

Chen Taotao asked in bewilderment:

"The other party is a triad, it won't be easy for Wang Sheng to deal with them, will it?"

The chubby boy chuckled, while Yaowen smiled more subtly.

Chen Taotao was a smart man and immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing.

Presumably, the so-called triads are nothing compared to the true path.

Yaowen frowned and said:

"If you're not worried about the Chung Ching Society, then what are you worried about?"

The chubby boy said with a bitter face:

"Ah Tao was immediately invited by Brother Dao to become a senior manager at HSBC. How could I possibly compare to that?"

"Fang Ting will definitely not refuse his invitation."

"What about my leading lady?"

Yaowen was speechless.
"Even now, you're still thinking about your leading lady?"

The chubby boy argued vehemently:
"I am the first director signed by Qiankun Film and Television, and I have to be responsible for my work."

"If the female lead isn't suitable, it won't be appealing!"

Chen Taotao exclaimed in amazement:

"Ah Jing, you have such amazing professionalism."

The chubby boy said seriously:

"You have to be responsible for the job you're paid for!"

His eyes darted around.

"Atao, you'll understand me, won't you?"

Chen Taotao flatly refused:
“You said you have to be responsible for your job, so I certainly can’t be careless.”

"A suitable assistant makes me happy."

"And then there will be higher work efficiency."

The chubby boy suddenly said:

"When you were the investment president of Vanke Capital, Fang Ting was your assistant without any problem."

"Now that you're the general manager of HSBC... is she still suitable for this position?"

Chen Taotao was taken aback for a moment, then laughed:

"Then it depends on Fang Ting's efforts."

"I believe she is not afraid of challenges."

The chubby boy cried out in pain:
"That's it!"

"My leading lady!"

Just then, the chubby boy's phone rang.

Yaowen answered the phone for him, and Le Huizhen's voice came through:
"Jing, I heard you're in the hospital?"

The chubby boy exclaimed in surprise:

"Sister-in-law, thank you for calling to comfort me."

Le Huizhen smiled and said:
"Take good care of your injury, and I'll give you a place to take over."

The chubby boy asked, puzzled:

"Sister-in-law, I'm doing quite well now."

Le Huizhen chuckled lightly:

"You'll regret it."

The chubby boy was about to say he didn't regret it, but after thinking for a moment, he added one more thing:

"Sister-in-law, what have you asked me to do?"

Le Huizhen smiled and said:

"Brother Dao bought a photo of the TV station."

"Owning my own television station is my dream."

"We have a TV station, but we're missing a general manager."

"...Since you're unwilling to do it, I'll go ask Uncle Dalin."

The chubby boy quickly shouted:
"My dear sister-in-law, I'm determined to become the general manager of this TV station!"
