Hong Kong films: Starting with Crossover and Luen Shing

Longgen took the box, opened it, and sure enough, inside the sandalwood box was an unusually long tiger whip wrapped in red silk.

Just one sniff made Longgen feel full of energy, so he immediately put the lid back on.

Just as he was about to say something, the phone that Longgen had left on the table suddenly rang.

Longgen quickly put the box on the table, picked up the phone, and looked at He Yaozong.

He Yaozong nodded to him, and Long Gen immediately understood and pressed the answer button.

The call was from Dongguan.

"Uncle, did something happen to the head of our company, Wo Shing, in Tsim Sha Tsui?!"

Dongguan Boy sounded very anxious. He had been promised by Ho Yiu-chung that he would soon go to Wan Chai to take over the territory that Chui-chicken used to occupy.

Although Wan Chai only has a few moldy and dilapidated bars, it is still the legitimate district leader of Luen Shing.

He was just one step away from taking the position, and if He Yaozong were to get into trouble at this critical juncture, he was sure he would be mentally devastated and capable of doing anything!

As instructed by He Yaozong beforehand, Long Gen spoke in a deep voice.

"Dongguan boy, who told you about this?"

Neither denying nor admitting it, according to He Yaozong's wishes, he will play the role of a 'dead man' tonight!

Sure enough, in Dongguan Zai's view, Long Gen's ambiguous attitude was undoubtedly an admission that He Yaozong had been 'assassinated'.

"The whole of Tsim Sha Tsui is talking about it. I received the news that I still can't get through to the Dragon Head by phone!"

I went to the teahouse and asked Xiwei and the others, and they only told me that I told them not to say anything!

Uncle, was it the number accomplice who did this? Is the dragon head alright?

I'm in Dapu right now, and I can bring people over anytime!

"This is none of your business. Just stay in Dapu!"

"So something really happened?"

"Dongguan boy, I told you to shut up and not mention this again, didn't you understand?!"

"So something really happened? Damn it! I don't know what you uncles and elders are thinking!"

Why are you still blocking information at this hour? Are you so afraid of things getting out of hand with the Wo Shing Wo?

If it weren't for Brother Yao supporting you, you would all be...

Seeing that Dongguan boy's words were getting increasingly absurd, Long Gen couldn't help but feel angry, but he still had to play along with He Yaozong's act. To prevent himself from losing his temper, he simply hung up the phone.

Taking a deep breath to calm his irritable emotions, Long Gen looked at He Yaozong.

"Ah Yao, your prestige with Lian Sheng is really high now!"

Even the youngest of the Tai Po brothers dared to stand up to us old folks for your sake!

He Yaozong smiled and pulled up a chair to sit next to Longgen.

“I’m planning to hand over the Wan Chai territory to Dongguan Zai to manage. It’s understandable that he’s anxious and frustrated.”

"What should we do now? I'm worried that your younger colleagues might get angry and do something terrible!"

"There's no way around it, this show has to go on until tonight no matter what."

He Yaozong had barely finished speaking when the phone rang again.

Longgen reluctantly picked up the phone, pressed the answer button again, and said "hello" in a curt tone.

The call came in via a multi-tap.

"Lung Gen, what happened in Tsim Sha Tsui?"

"I do not know!"

"I don't know why you had the Longjiang Hotel sealed off."

"What kind of situation is this? If you don't explain things clearly, can you handle this all by yourself?!"

Even Chuanbao couldn't help but get angry, and shouted loudly on the other end of the phone.

This completely ignited Longgen's temper.

It was Chuanbao's confidant who delivered the firearms to Longjiang Hotel on behalf of Li Jia. Although Chuanbao was unaware of this, Longgen would definitely hold him accountable for failing to properly supervise his subordinates when the matter was settled tomorrow.

Now he's getting angry with me?

"Screw you! I'm really annoyed right now, so I suggest you don't raise your voice at me on the phone!"

"Let's talk about it tomorrow morning!"

beep--

As he spoke, Longgen hung up the phone again, and for a moment he couldn't help but rub his temples.

"This won't do, Ah Yao. If this continues, I'm afraid every branch of Wo Shing will curse me for being a complete idiot."

When will this charade ever end? If it drags on any longer, my reputation is going to be completely ruined!

……

Long Gen kept answering phone calls at Bijia Mountain, while some of He Yaozong's confidants, who couldn't be contacted by Long Gen, preferred to become the doers.

Flies are the best example.

Upon receiving word of the situation in Tsim Sha Tsui, he immediately called Ho Yiu-chung.

They found that they couldn't get through on the phone no matter how many times they tried.

So late at night he went to the He Tai Tea House to inquire about the situation, only to find that the tea house doors were already tightly closed.

I tried calling Ah Hua, who was still in Haojiang, but he didn't answer.

This really angered the fly.

When he returned to Tang Lok Street, he hired a group of knife-wielders and declared that he would shave the entire Hong Kong Island tonight, even if it meant cutting off Beard Yung's hair!

He didn't even consider that with only a hundred or so people on Tang Le Street, how could he possibly compete with the Yi Zi Dui?

As expected, when Fly led his men to rob people in the Shanghai Street gang, they were immediately disarmed by the knife-wielding men of Yi Zi Tui and detained by Beard Yong's men.

That night, the entire Wo Luen Shing Society was in a state of panic, except for two branches.

One of them is Yu Tou Biao, who is currently staying at his residence in Lei Yue Mun, guarding the phone number that Li Zhikai left him, dreaming of becoming the head of Wo Luen Shing with the support of the Li family.

However, ever since the news of He Yaozong's 'death' spread, Li Zhikai has had no time to pay attention to him.

Another well-behaved person was Big D from Tsuen Wan. He was one of the few people in the Wo Shing Wo organization who knew that Ho Yiu Chung was faking his death.

Big D is a partner of Hengyao Real Estate, and nominally, he is also a partner of Hengyao Real Estate in the land development project in Kowloon Walled City.

If Ho Yiu-chung dies, the land in Kowloon Walled City will once again become ownerless because the property company has no direct heir.

The Lands Department will reclaim this vacant land and, based on Big D's asset share in Heng Yao Properties, will renegotiate the property allocation agreement.

In other words, Da D is qualified to obtain land approval from the land administration department first, as a partner of Hengyao Real Estate.

There will be two possible outcomes: either Big D will abandon the Kowloon Walled City development project and hold onto his land title, becoming a holdout in Kowloon Walled City.

Either Big D gets the support of a financial backer and takes back the land from the land administration, continuing to act as a holdout in Kowloon Walled City.

Neither outcome is something the Li family wants to see.

If Li Zhikai isn't stupid, he'll have to bribe Big D before other real estate tycoons can!

And that's exactly how things turned out.

Late at night, Tsuen Wan.

"Big D, Big D!"

Big D's wife walked to the villa's balcony and shoved Big D, who was leaning against a rattan chair enjoying the cool air.

"What's the matter?"

Big D turned around and glanced at his wife.

But then he saw his wife holding a mobile phone and handing it to Big D.

"Someone from Hysan Development called and wants to discuss land development in Kowloon Walled City with you."

"Damn it! He Yaozong just got into trouble, and they called right away. Did they do this?"

"Don't talk nonsense, they haven't hung up the phone yet!"

Big D's wife quickly whispered a reminder, but saw Big D roll his eyes and snatch the phone away.

He couldn't help but mutter, "What are you afraid of? You dare to do it but not admit it?"

He then put the phone to his ear and shouted into it.

"Hey, who is it?!"

"Hello, I am the assistant to Mr. Li Zhikai, the head of the business department of Hysan Development."

We understand that Hysan Development is facing some difficulties. We heard that you have a project worth tens of millions of dollars in Lok Fu Estate, and you haven't received the final payment. Do you need our assistance?

"I'm not well-educated, can't you be a little more direct with me?!"

"That's right, our Hysan Development is very interested in the development project in Kowloon Walled City, as you know, sir."

I think we should do this: you can buy back the land in Kowloon Walled City from the Lands Department on behalf of Hysan Development.

"When the time comes to develop the project, Hysan Development will still entrust it to you, how about that?"

"What if I disagree!"

"Sir, I hope you can think this through. Currently, apart from Hysan Development and Henderson Land Development, no one else has the capability to jointly develop the land in Kowloon Walled City."

Henderson Land Development is a partner of our Hysan Development. If we don't approve, your land will just rot in your hands.

"Do you have the capacity to fill the gap left by the subsequent resettlement project at Lok Fu Estate?"

When soft tactics didn't work, the other side resorted to hard tactics.

Big D just gave a cold laugh.

“Great! The land title transfer contract is in my hands. You guys prepare the price, and then have Li Zhikai come directly to Tsuen Wan to discuss it with me!”

"Mr. Li is very busy and I'm afraid he won't have time to see you."
