Hong Kong film: People in Wo Luen Shing, summoning the King of Fighters.

Even Deng Wei is no exception; he also has a big boss backing him up.

Why choose to be a gangster instead of a big boss or tycoon...? What's the difference between that and joining the National Revolutionary Army in 1949?

Therefore, Chen Jialuo spoke these words quickly and urgently, fearing that Deng Wei would force him to take over the position of leader.

Deng Wei hadn't expected Chen Jialuo to be so averse to this position.

However, his thoughts differed from Chen Jialuo's. He felt that Chen Jialuo had been too sharp-tongued lately, and even thought that Chen Jialuo was very clear-headed. So he smiled and nodded, saying, "Then who do you think is likely to become the next leader of our Wo Luen Shing?"

"Ask me?" Chen Jialuo breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Deng Wei had no intention of pushing him forward. "I think... Grandpa, you can sit for another two years!"

"Nonsense!" Deng Wei said, frowning. "How could I possibly change the rules of Wo Luen Shing that have been in place for decades!"

Chen Jialuo spread his hands and said, "I'm telling the truth. You saw what happened just now! A bunch of idiots are good at being greedy for money, but they don't know how to manage a gang!"

"You little rascal, you're my uncle, at least give me some face!" Deng Wei couldn't help but laugh.

Chen Jialuo shrugged: "What I said is true, but Grandpa, why are you asking me, a junior, about this? I only know a few people, and I haven't even had much contact with the older generation of the Lian Sheng family!"

“That’s true!” Deng Wei chuckled. He had called Chen Jialuo over simply to test whether the young man had any ambition.

In Deng Wei's view, the stability of the triad was paramount, and Wo Shing didn't need so many ambitious individuals!

Chapter 143 Opening of the Video Game Business

Handing over four halls to the club shut those bastards up.

However, Chen Jialuo was still very unhappy, since it was money he had taken from him.

Back in his own territory in Yau Ma Tei, he was greeted by a line of henchmen early in the morning.

This time, his henchmen respected Chen Jialuo even more than before, calling him "Prince" from a great distance.

Firstly, Chen Jialuo has made a great name for himself in Macau this time, and his deeds are now being spread throughout the martial arts world. Secondly... money is a powerful motivator!

Each of Chen Jialuo's henchmen who accompanied him back from Macau received a large, enviable red envelope.

He's always treating people to meals and bragging, and his methods for picking up girls have improved by more than a level. How can that not make people envious?

Isn't the whole point of living in this world to make money and show off?

Now that they work under Chen Jialuo, both of these things are guaranteed, which has boosted the cohesion of these henchmen to an unprecedented level!

They all looked at Chen Jialuo expectantly, hoping that he could find them something to do.

Chen Jialuo knew exactly what these gangsters were thinking; he did it on purpose.

After all, he needs a lot of manpower to manage his business going forward, and if his subordinates are as lazy as before, he will have a lot of headaches.

It seems to be working well now, so it's time to put the video game business on the agenda.

After dismissing his underlings, Chen Jialuo returned to the bar and found Chen Taishan: "Did anything happen while I was gone?"

Chen Taishan adjusted his glasses and said with a smile, "Boss, now that you're so powerful, who would be foolish enough to come to Yau Ma Tei looking for trouble? Those petty thieves are practically nowhere to be seen on the streets these days!"

Chen Jialuo nodded: "Not bad! How's the shop I asked you to rent coming along?"

Chen Taishan said cautiously, "These are all good shops, and no one would be willing to give them up, so... I used a little trick!"

"No one died, right?" Chen Jialuo asked, frowning.

Chen Taishan quickly replied, "No, it's just that there were two unpleasant bastards, and I taught them a little lesson!"

"As long as no one died, that's fine!" Chen Jialuo didn't care about the situation. After all, how could gangsters do business normally? It was already good enough that they didn't bully or monopolize the market.

"Boss, you still haven't told me what you're going to do with these shops!" Chen Taishan asked with a bitter face. "The rent for these shops isn't cheap!"

Chen Jialuo smiled and said, "Have you ever heard of arcade games?"

"Oh? Boss, you have connections?" Chen Taishan's eyes lit up and he said to Chen Jialuo.

Although the video game industry is still in its early stages, it is already a very profitable business.

They are extremely popular in Japan and America.

However, this kind of business is impossible to succeed in without connections. If you don't buy enough, the arcade machine manufacturers in Japan won't even give you a second glance.

However, if you were to buy in large quantities, funding would be a significant issue.

Arcade machines were very expensive at that time; converted to Hong Kong dollars, each machine cost nearly ten thousand dollars.

Who would dare to spend such a large sum of money on these industries with uncertain prospects?

If it weren't for Chen Jialuo's special status, he wouldn't have dared to risk going into this industry. But who told him to be so familiar with the subsequent developments and know that this line of work would definitely make money?

So after returning from Macau, he immediately spent five million to buy arcade machines and fruit machines.

"Of course I have connections. The two hundred arcade machines and three hundred fruit machines I ordered from Japan are almost delivered to the port. Once we get the goods, our arcade can open for business immediately!"

"When the time comes, send out our men to keep watch and prevent those bastards from causing trouble. Anyone who dares to mess around, beat them to death!"

Chen Jialuo gave Chen Taishan some instructions.

The first batch of goods was just for Chen Jialuo to test the waters and see how profitable the arcade was.

If the results are satisfactory, he will immediately cover the entire territory of Wo Luen Shing first, and then slowly erode the entire Hong Kong market.

Once the demand for expansion increases, he can negotiate an exclusive deal with Japan and then monopolize the entire Hong Kong market.

What business is the most profitable? Monopoly is the most profitable!

At that time, Chen Jialuo won't have to do anything, and he'll have a large income every day.

A few days later, Chen Jialuo's goods were already at the port. In order to open up the market, Japan even hired several engineers to help Chen Jialuo adjust and test these machines.

Chen Jialuo naturally wouldn't neglect the task; after the machine was fully debugged, he even gave the engineers bonuses.

Both parties are very satisfied with this transaction.

Looking at the already set-up arcade, Chen Jialuo saw that his underlings all looked blank, so he smiled and took the initiative to step forward and give a demonstration.

At that time, there weren't many arcade games available, but even the few simplest games quickly caught the attention of his underlings.

A large group of people gathered together to watch Chen Jialuo play Tetris, Pac-Man, and other games.

After all, electronic products naturally have a strong appeal to young people.

Chapter 144 Opening for Business, Trouble Awaits

Of course, these arcade games are just used to attract young people to the store.

The real bulk of the income comes from the fruit machines that are displayed.

This thing is actually a simplified version of the fruit machines in casinos in Macau and Las Vegas. In Japan, there are also pachinko machines and other similar machines, which were already quite popular overseas for a while.

But young people in Hong Kong have never seen anything like this.

Even though it's a bit rudimentary, it's still fun enough; it's a simplified version of gambling.

Most importantly, Hong Kong currently has no clear laws regarding this matter.

Since it was a new thing, the laws weren't updated that quickly, which gave Chen Jialuo an opportunity to exploit the loopholes.

Anyway, Hong Kong is full of underground casinos now, so adding a fruit machine isn't anything special.

After Chen Jialuo covered for his underlings, some of them couldn't wait to start playing around, getting carried away with their antics.

Chen Jialuo's face immediately darkened. He kicked one of his henchmen so hard he fell flat on his face, and cursed angrily, "I sent you guys here to make money, not for you idiots to play around! If I find out any of you dare to play around while you're at work, I'll break your legs, you hear me?"

Chen Jialuo didn't want his arcades to be completely occupied by his own men, with no customers coming.

So I gave them a stern warning beforehand.

The underling rubbed his backside, got up, and chuckled, "Boss, we've never seen this before!"

Chen Jialuo snorted and said, "Those who work in the brothel get a monthly salary and an annual bonus. If anyone wants to quit, just tell me!"

Upon hearing this, the underlings immediately put down their games and patted their chests to vouch for Chen Jialuo.

After securing the henchmen, Chen Jialuo had Chen Taishan register the company, and they could start preparing for the opening on an auspicious day.

……

In the year of its opening, Chen Jialuo invested quite a bit of money and even hired a lion dance troupe.

Many local councilors and government officials also attended to offer their congratulations.

The rest are all Wo Shing's own people.

The leaders of various triads, including Lin Huai Le, Da D, Yu Tou Biao, Huo Niu, and Long Gen, all sent flower baskets.

Even Dapu Hei, who was at odds with Chen Jialuo, was no exception.

Yu Tou Biao, Long Gen, Lin Huai Le, and others personally attended to offer their congratulations.

Lin Huai Le, in particular, had the sharpest eye and could tell at a glance that this was an extremely profitable business, so he admired Chen Jia Luo more and more.

"Your Highness, I'm truly impressed! How did you come up with the idea of ​​creating such a profitable business?" Lin Huaile asked with a curious expression, as if he were about to learn from Chen Jialuo.

Chen Jialuo, of course, wouldn't tell Lin Huai Le the truth. Instead, he smiled and said, "Remember when I went on a trip last time? It was that Fugui Maru in Japan?"

"I remember, I heard there are some minor troubles!" Lin Huaiyue nodded.

Chen Jialuo said with a smile, "I noticed these arcade machines on that cruise ship, so I contacted Japan and bought some to test the waters!"
