Hong Kong variety show: I can boost loyalty, the most generous boss.

Chapter 90, Section 89: Loyalty Piles Up Wang Bao, Cang Sheng Arrested
Zhu Baoyi beamed with joy upon hearing this. She also felt that the female lead, Wang Zuxian, was not as pretty as her, even though Wang Zuxian was a little bit taller than her.

"Don't be too arrogant when you get to the film set, and don't take advantage of my connections to do whatever you want!"

Only director Tsui Hark knew about Zhu Baoyi's relationship; the rest of the crew probably didn't. The male lead in the film "A Chinese Ghost Story" was Leslie Cheung, who is now a signed artist with Yang Jun.

"understood!"

Zhu Baoyi hadn't seen Yang Jun for several days, so he hugged Yang Jun's head and kissed him.

The villa district of Mong Kok.

Gui Ligao has been in a bad mood these past few days and is smashing things.

"Damn it, how did Handsome Kun end up dead?"

"Who killed my good brother, Liang Kun?"

The little girl next to him saw that Guili was in a bad mood, so she immediately went up to comfort him:

"Brother Gao, don't be sad!"

Gui Ligao slapped the little girl across the face, knocking her to the ground, and angrily cursed:

"Sad my foot! That bastard still owes me tens of millions!"

Gui Ligao was speechless. He had just lent money to Liang Kun, and then Liang Kun was killed. He wanted to go to Mr. Jiang to collect the debt, but now Mr. Jiang was gone too.

Gui Ligao lent money to Liang Kun, and now he's lost everything. Who can he complain to?

However, Leung Kwan had a collateral deal: his film company, which specialized in making adult films.

"Brother Gao, there are several men in suits at the door. They barged in."

When Gui Ligao heard this, he decided to go out and take a look, but he didn't expect to see Nine-Dragon standing at the door with six underlings.

"Brother Long, what's going on?"

Gui Li Gao immediately recognized that the young man in front of him was Nine-Dragon, one of the Four Heavenly Kings under the command of Wo Shing Fai.

"Gui Li Gao, my boss wants to see you!"

Nine-Dragon was a ruthless man who didn't talk much. He opened the door of the van and gestured for Gui Ligao to enter.

"Handsome Jun wants to see me?" Gui Ligao's heart skipped a beat. He didn't think he had offended Handsome Jun.

"Okay, I'm coming right away!"

Gui Ligao dared not delay. He was just the head of the second-rate gang Dongfuhe, and could not compare with the powerful and wealthy Liangzai Jun.

Gui Ligao met Yang Jun in a private room at the Wenhua Hotel. Yang Jun smiled and asked Gui Ligao to sit down.

"Gui Li Gao, I'm here for Liang Kun's film company. Name your price!"

Gui Ligao was secretly pleased. Keeping Qiankun Film Company in his hands was like having a hot potato; it would be better to sell the film company.

Gui Li Gao gave a fawning laugh and asked:

"I wonder how much Brother Jun is willing to offer?"

"Half a million!"

Yang Jun bought Liang Kun's film company for the purpose of making films, as videotapes and VCRs did not sell well in that era.

Once Yang Jun's VCD player comes out, the discs will become best-sellers, and sales will increase exponentially.

Furthermore, there is no film rating system at present; it will be introduced in 1988. Tricolor films can be shown in theaters, but only in midnight screenings.

"Five hundred thousand? Brother Jun, that's far too little!"

Gui Ligao's face showed greed. He knew that Liangzai Jun had plenty of money and a listed company under his control. Reaching Yang Jun's level in the underworld was considered the ceiling.

Yang Jun didn't speak, but exhaled a puff of white smoke.

Nine-Dragon walked up to Guili Gao and said viciously:
"Not enough? Want me to burn some for you?"

Gui Ligao gave an awkward smile and patted his mouth.

"Brother Jun, I misspoke! 500,000 it is, I'll sell it to you~"

"Okay, Ah Long, prepare the contract."

Yang Jun got up and left. He didn't have the energy to do everything himself in this small business!
After acquiring Qiankun Company, Yang Jun also gained control of film production resources and obtained many copyrights, all for a mere HK$50, which can be considered a very good deal!

Next, Yang Jun plans to purchase more film copyrights. He will first go to Golden Harvest Film Company and ask Zou Wenhuai to have tea with him.

Raymond Chow didn't come alone; he brought two celebrities from the film industry with him: Sammo Hung and Jackie Chan.

Sammo Hung is the founder of the Hung family gang and has a cooperative relationship with Raymond Chow's Golden Harvest Company. Two years ago, the two established "Bo Ho Film Company" and created the comedy zombie film "Encounters of the Spooky Kind," which ranked fourth at the box office in 1980.

This record set a new box office record for horror films and laid the foundation for the emergence of zombie films in the future.

It can be said that Sammo Hung was a heavyweight figure in Hong Kong films, and the Hung family gang was the best stuntmen at the time.

Jackie Chan was also in the rising phase of his career. In 1980, he directed and starred in "The Young Master," which was the first Hong Kong film to break the 10 million mark at the box office and became the box office champion that year.

Golden Harvest pioneered the satellite model, establishing a collaborative relationship with its artists. Sammo Hung and Jackie Chan were Golden Harvest's right-hand men.

"Mr. Yang, let me introduce you. These two are Mr. Sammo Hung and Mr. Jackie Chan."

Zou Wenhuai introduced two up-and-coming directors to Yang Jun. Hong Jinbao and Cheng Long stood up together and toasted Yang Jun!

"Mr. Yang, we, his fellow apprentices, would like to raise a toast to you!"

Hong Jinbao was a chubby guy with a smile on his face, and he was very respectful to Yang Jun!
He was the director, while Yang Jun was the film company owner and investor. Their positions were not equal, so the director had to be humble and subservient to secure investment.

Cheng Long is relatively younger, about the same age as Yang Jun, and is a bit shy and reserved.

"I've heard so much about you, the Seven Little Fortunes, haven't I?"

Yang Jun doesn't hit someone who's smiling, and he was quite interested in Sammo Hung and Jackie Chan.

"Mr. Yang, you're too kind. Your Giant Films are truly a force to be reckoned with; you've made a stunning debut and your strength is truly formidable!"

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Yang Jun smiled and said to Raymond Chow:

"Old Zou, you're introducing me to two great generals. Aren't you afraid I'll poach their talent?"

"Haha! They're not my employees, they're my collaborators~"

It must be said that Raymond Chow's vision was much broader than that of Shaw Brothers. If Shaw Brothers had treated his employees this well, Shaw Brothers would not have gone bankrupt.

Zou Wenhuai values ​​talent and has never been stingy with money for talented people.

"Professor Zou, I admire you so much! I want to learn from you!"

"I'm here today to collaborate with Golden Harvest Films and to purchase the film rights to all of Golden Harvest's films over the years, including those that have finished showing in theaters."

Ah! Zou Wenhuai was startled. The copyrights before acquiring Golden Harvest Films?
The movie has already been shown in theaters, so how can it still generate commercial value? Does Yang Jun want to start a videotape business?

"Jun, are you planning to start a videotape business?"

"Almost~"

Whether Yang Jun manufactures VCD players is still a trade secret; in any case, VCD players are not much different from video recorders.

"I can only grant you the right to use it; I will not sell the copyright."

Zou Wenhuai isn't stupid; copyright can't be sold, but usage rights can. Yang Jun understood; anyway, once they got the usage rights, the VCDs they burned would be genuine movie VCDs.

"Alright, Mr. Zou, why don't you name a price?"

"one million!"

"OK, deal!"

Zou Wenhuai had just called out a price when Yang Jun immediately agreed, which surprised Zou Wenhuai. Had he quoted too low a price?
He didn't expect the usage rights to be so valuable; he felt like he had lost hundreds of millions!
Regardless, the offer of one million has already been made, and Raymond Chow can't go back on his word!

Yang Jun, however, was all smiles. It was another bargain. He had acquired the film rights from Golden Harvest for only 100 million yuan. It was a worthwhile deal.

Yang Jun already owned all the copyrights to Shaw Brothers films, and when he bought Shaw Brothers films and Shaw Brothers cinemas, he also acquired the copyrights.

Of the three major film companies, only the copyright for New City Films remains. Yang Jun plans to press his advantage and acquire the copyright for New City Films before the VCD player is released.

Streets in Sham Shui Po.

Wearing a suit and tie, holding a mobile phone, Wu Sheng looked at the young couple opposite him and said smugly:

"Hey, your older brother's made it big now, I'll cover your wedding!"

"We'll set up twenty tables at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Hong Kong, and we'll provide you with shark fin and abalone."

Standing opposite Cang Sheng is Cang Sheng's younger brother, A Xi. The girl next to him is his girlfriend, who has already become suspicious. The two are planning to get married.

Axi stared at Cang Sheng in shock, his face filled with disbelief. Just a few months ago, Cang Sheng couldn't even come up with a few thousand yuan, but now he could come up with over ten thousand.

"Brother, where did you get the money?"

“I’m with Mr. Yang, and all this money came from him.”

Ushiro was smug, showing off his old-fashioned mobile phone. These days, having a pager is considered impressive; only big bosses own such a thing.

Mr. Yang? Could it be Yang Jun, the king of nightclubs in Hong Kong?

Axi was secretly delighted, genuinely happy for his older brother! He smugly told his girlfriend:

"Xiao Hui, did you see that? My older brother has made something of himself. He'll make your family stop looking down on us!"

"Mr. Yang is one of the top 20 richest people in Hong Kong, and he owns two listed companies!"

His girlfriend, Ahui, brightened up and nodded with a smile. Her parents were a bit materialistic, but they were doing it for her own good and didn't want her to suffer any grievances after marrying into her family.

Wu Sheng's parents died early, leaving behind only two brothers, Wu Sheng and A Xi. A few months ago, they couldn't even afford a few thousand dollars, but they never thought they could hold a banquet at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel.

Wu Sheng sent his younger siblings away, his face darkening. In fact, the money for the banquet was borrowed from loan sharks at high interest rates.

Wu Sheng was just a lowly employee at Wo Luen Shing, earning only three thousand dollars a month, which he spent lavishly. Where would he get the money to pay for his brother's wedding?

"Wu Sheng, you stop right there!"

Ahua walked over from the opposite side, accompanied by two henchmen. Ahua punched Wusheng in the face.

"Fuck your mother! Are you crazy? Borrowing money from Wang Bao at exorbitant interest rates!"

With a toothpick dangling from his mouth, Wu Sheng said in a nonchalant tone:

"It's my brother's wedding! I can't let his snobbish in-laws look down on me!"

"A person fights for their pride. It's one thing for me to suffer bad luck, but I won't let my younger brother suffer too!"

Ahua's anger subsided after punching the man, and he began to think about how to resolve the matter. Loan sharks operate on compound interest, and the longer the debt drags on, the more he will owe.

Wang Bao is not someone to be trifled with; he's a drug dealer with a gun.

“I still have several hundred thousand yuan. I’ll call Wang Bao.”

Before Ahua could finish speaking, a van stopped in front of the four of them, and more than a dozen short mules rushed out. The leader was a man in white clothes and pants, wearing sunglasses, named White Hair Aji.

"Black Rope? Take him away~"

Ahua tried to stop him, but Aji's eyes were cold as he pulled a butterfly knife from his sleeve and swung it at Ahua.

Ahua couldn't dodge in time, and his chest was ripped open. Then, Aji kicked him in the chest, sending him flying two or three meters away.

Holy crap! Where did this white-haired guy come from? And he's so skilled?
Ahua was kicked away, and the other two henchmen were also beaten by Wang Bao's henchmen. Wusheng was dragged into the van, and the van drove away!

Tsim Sha Tsui Night Light Bar.

Wang Bao, dressed in a burgundy suit and smoking a cigar, was extremely obese. He sat opposite Wu Sheng, who was being beaten.

Wu Sheng, despite being beaten black and blue by the henchmen of the Loyalty Gang, was still shouting:

"Wang Bao, eat shit! My boss will definitely come to save me!"

Wang Bao crossed his legs and looked at Wu Sheng with a sneer.

"Wu Sheng, you're just a lackey of Wo Shing. Do you think Handsome Jun will come to your rescue? Heh~"

Wang Bao didn't believe it, but he was determined to get back the money Wu Sheng owed him.

"The total is 30 yuan, including principal and interest. Once you pay this amount back, I will repay you."

Wang Bao waved his hand, signaling his underlings to take the black rope down, and the man in the top hat walked up.

"Master Bao, why did you arrest this good-for-nothing?"

"What do you know? Handsome Jun is so rich, I just wanted to lure him out~"

Wang Bao has also been having a tough time lately. Luo Tianhong and Wang Bao have fought several times, but neither of them has gained the upper hand.

Luo Tianhong has the continuous financial support of Liangzai Jun, while Wang Bao's money is hard-earned and he's almost overwhelmed by the pressure.

"Oh. I understand!"

On the other side, at Ankang Hospital.

When Yang Jun saw Ahua with his chest bandaged, he smiled and asked Ahua:
"Ahua, what happened to you? How did you get like this?"

Ahua was also on the verge of tears. He thought he was quite skilled, but he didn't expect that the white-haired guy was so good that he was injured in just a few moves.

"Brother Jun, I've embarrassed you. It was Wang Bao's men who injured me."

Yang Jun frowned. Wang Bao? The leader of the Loyalty Gang.

The largest triad in Hong Kong is the Number Gang, which has the most members. However, the Number Gang does not have a unified leader. Each of the major groups has its own leader, and they all act independently, making it the least united triad.

Yang Jun knew that Wang Bao, the leader of the Loyalty Gang, and Luo Tianhong had been fighting over territory, but he had never met Wang Bao.

"Cang Sheng borrowed money from Wang Bao at exorbitant interest rates to pay for his younger brother's wedding!"

Borrowing money to get married? Yang Jun was taken aback; this was a rather niche term!
In Hong Kong during the 1980s, a wedding banquet could cost over ten thousand dollars, and Yang Jun had heard some rumors about it.

It was still because of a lack of money that this happened. Both of Fly's parents had passed away, so arranging a wedding for his younger brother was a responsible thing to do!

"If you don't have money, why don't you borrow from me? Damn! You're lending Wang Bao money at exorbitant interest rates?"

Yang Jun, with a stern face, gave Ahua a good scolding. However, although Cang Sheng was a traitor, he was still following him, and Yang Jun couldn't just let him go!
Yang Jun got Wang Bao's number and dialed it using a mobile phone.

"Brother Bao, it's me, Yang Jun!"
