Hong Kong film: Drowned by the Chiang family? I launch a massive attack on Hung Hing.

“Governor, it is truly an honor to receive your call.”

Although Li Jun said those words, there was not a trace of honor in his tone.

“Mr. Li, our Hong Kong government staff were rude earlier. I now formally invite you to the dinner I am hosting tonight at the Governor’s Residence.”

Peng Jiakang's tone was full of 'sincerity'.

“Governor, those who can attend your dinner are all celebrities and wealthy families in Hong Kong. I am just a gangster. How could I be qualified?”

Li Jun chuckled.

“Mr. Li, the reason I’m calling you is that I hope we can be honest with each other. If possible, we might even become good friends.”

Peng Jiakang ignored Li Jun's provocation and said calmly.

“Governor, since you are so sincere, it would be impolite of me to refuse you. Rest assured, I will definitely attend the banquet tonight.”

Li Jun said calmly.

"Alright, then I'll make sure you're all ready to go."

It is clear that Peng Jiakang is studying Chinese culture very diligently, and he can already start using idioms.

After hearing Peng Jiakang's words, Li Jun did not say anything more, but hung up the phone immediately.

At this moment, because the fully automatic mode had been running for a while, Mona was running out of energy. After Li Jun hung up the phone, she immediately sent an overload alarm to Li Jun and successfully switched back to Li Jun's automatic mode.

On the other end of the phone, Peng Jiakang slowly put down his mobile phone, looked at Shi Kang who was still standing in front of him, and slowly said, "Mr. Governor, please invite the heads of the four major families and four major trading companies in Hong Kong, as well as the managers of HSBC and Standard Chartered Bank, to the Governor's Residence. There are some things I would like to discuss with them in person."

Upon hearing Peng Jiakang's words, Shi Kang's expression changed slightly. He slowly nodded, then immediately turned and left.

"Li Jun!"

Peng Jiakang softly murmured Li Jun's name, then took out a sheet of white paper and began to write and draw on it.

An hour later, at 2 p.m.

A small meeting room at the Governor's residence.

Ten men sat quietly in this conference room, seemingly unremarkable at first glance.

But anyone who has seen the news knows that if these 10 people in the room joined forces, they could paralyze Hong Kong Island.

The four major families of Hong Kong Island are not on the same level as the four families that sold "flour" during the money era, like the Wu Shih-hao family. These four families are the four most powerful and influential families among the many Chinese families in Hong Kong Island.

The He family is headed by He Dong; the Zhou family by Zhou Junnian; the Guo family by Guo Yongnian; and the Li family by Li Peicai.

At their peak, these four families helped them start construction on nearly 30 of the more than 30 piers on Hong Kong Island.

However, in the past 20 years, these four families have begun to deliberately hide their strength and try to avoid being exposed to the public. To this day, no one knows how much power these four families have hidden in the dark.

The four major trading companies were the four largest trading companies founded by the British. Relying on the privileges afforded to foreigners, they made a fortune in Hong Kong and their influence extended to all walks of life in Hong Kong.

Jardine Matheson; Swire Group; Hutchison Whampoa; Wheelock & Co.

As for HSBC and Standard Chartered, they go without saying. As the issuing banks of the Hong Kong dollar, these two banks secretly control countless Hong Kong companies, making them no weaker than the four major foreign trading companies.

Throughout Hong Kong Island, only the Governor could bring together the leaders of these ten major forces.

'Zhiqua~'

Before these 10 important figures had to wait long, the door to conference room 663 was pushed open, and Peng Jiakang, with a smile on his face, led Shi Kang, who also had a smile on his face, into the conference room.

"Gentlemen, I apologize for keeping you waiting. I am the Governor of Hong Kong Island, Peng Jiakang. I hope you will continue to support me in the future."

After Peng Jiakang walked to the main seat, he smiled and spoke to the 10 men in front of him.

"Governor, you are too kind!"

……

Peng Jiakang's reply was naturally polite.

After exchanging pleasantries, Peng Jiakang sat down and said with a smile, "Everyone, I heard when I was in Chongqing that Hong Kong Island is the Pearl of the Orient and an international metropolis. To be honest, I had never been to Hong Kong Island before, so I didn't really have any concept of Hong Kong Island or this description of Hong Kong Island."

"However, when the plane I was on flew over Hong Kong Island today, I looked down at the entire island and realized that this statement is true. Hong Kong Island is a beautiful and developed city, and its achievements today are inseparable from the efforts of everyone here."

Peng Jiakang's words were very polite, which immediately shortened the distance between him and He Dong, Zhou Junnian and others.

"Mr. Governor, the greatest credit goes to the British Hong Kong government and the more than twenty governors before them. It was their painstaking efforts to plan and develop Hong Kong Island that made it so prosperous today."

The speaker was Zhou Junnian, the head of the Zhou family. The Zhou family was the closest to foreigners in all of Hong Kong Island. They were jokingly called a family that looked like foreigners in every way except for their appearance. Of course, he was the first to jump out and flatter Peng Jiakang.

"Haha, Mr. Zhou, you flatter me."

Peng Jiakang laughed a few times, then his smile faded slightly and his expression turned cold: "Everyone, development is always accompanied by crises. Over the years, Hong Kong has encountered many crises, such as the 1956 and 1967 riots. We all worked together and got through them together."

"Now, Hong Kong Island is facing another crisis. I hope that this time we can work together sincerely to resolve this crisis and make Hong Kong Island more prosperous."

After hearing Peng Jiakang's words, the other 10 people present, whether Chinese or foreign, all had a slight change in their eyes.

Those present were all extremely astute individuals, so almost without thinking, everyone immediately understood that the crisis that Governor Peng Jiakang was referring to was Li Jun.

"..."

However, because everyone present was shrewd, no one spoke after Peng Jiakang finished speaking; they all remained silent.

Seeing the way these people were behaving, Shi Kang, who was sitting behind Peng Jiakang, became a little anxious. However, since Peng Jiakang did not speak, he naturally could not take the lead.

After nearly a minute of silence, Peng Jiakang smiled and said, "Everyone, you should have thought about what I just said. Who would like to share their thoughts with me first?"

Peng Jiakang skillfully defused the awkward situation.

Sure enough, no matter what, they always deal with the dogs first, then the people...

[153] A Justice of the Peace, is that so great? I wouldn't even be a dog!

The meeting room at the Governor's Residence.

"..."

Upon hearing Peng Jiakang's words, Zhou Junnian was speechless.

He was the first to flatter Peng Jiakang, but Peng Jiakang was the first to expose him.

However, considering that the Zhou family's power all came from foreigners, Zhou Junnian could only sigh inwardly. He then looked at Chris Patten and said, "Governor, you are the Queen's representative in Hong Kong. Your orders are the Queen's orders. Everything in Hong Kong is under your control. Whatever you tell us to do, we will do."

Although he had never met Li Jun, Zhou Junnian knew very well what kind of person Li Jun was.

Even if Zhou Junnian had a way to deal with someone who couldn't be dealt with by the Governor of Hong Kong, MI6, the Special Branch, and the police force, he wouldn't tell Peng Jiakang.

What if Peng Jiakang, in a moment of impulsiveness, sends this Western-worshipping lackey to fight Li Jun? What will Zhou Junnian and his Zhou family do to fight Li Jun? What if Li Jun, in a moment of impulsiveness, wipes out their Zhou family and hides in Southeast Asia? Even if the foreigners give their Zhou family a Queen's Medal, it won't matter!

Zhou Junnian had been in politics for decades, and he knew that he couldn't even touch this matter himself and had to refuse, but he couldn't let Peng Jiakang lose face.

Therefore, he used his already superb 'Tai Chi skills' to directly return the problem to Peng Jiakang.

"..."

Upon hearing Zhou Junnian's words, Peng Jiakang seemed unsurprised. He smiled slightly and slowly said, "I know you all have concerns. I have studied Li Jun. He is extremely reckless in his actions, yet he is rational within his recklessness, which makes our Hong Kong British government very uncomfortable. It is not worth turning against him, but if we do not turn against him, he will act recklessly."

At this point, Peng Jiakang paused slightly: "Everyone, you may think that our Hong Kong British government is too compromising, but have you ever thought that without the restraint of the Hong Kong British government, you would all just be a piece of meat on Li Jun's chopping board, and he could cut and eat it whenever he wanted?"

The 10 people in the conference room nodded slightly after hearing Peng Jiakang's words.

Indeed, given Li Jun's style of doing things, if it weren't for the Hong Kong British government, he might have directly led his men to wipe out their stronghold.

"Governor, what does the British Hong Kong government intend to do?"

At this moment, He Dong, the patriarch of the He family, the most senior and powerful of the four major families in Hong Kong, finally spoke.

Upon hearing He Dong's question, Peng Jiakang's eyes flickered slightly. In fact, the main target of his meeting with these 10 people was He Dong, Guo Yongnian, and Li Peicai.

As for the four major foreign banks, HSBC, and Standard Chartered Bank, strictly speaking, they are all foreigners' own people. As long as Peng Jiakang makes a call, given his status in his ancestral home in the United States, they will definitely give him face.

As for Zhou Junnian? He was just a dog kept by the Hong Kong British government. Peng Jiakang wouldn't even bother to listen to his opinions.

However, He Dong, Guo Yongnian, and Li Peicai are different, especially He Dong. The He family has been in Hong Kong for over 100 years. It is said that wealth does not last beyond three generations, but the He family is already in its fourth generation under He Dong's management.

Over the course of 100 years, the Ho family not only amassed an astonishing fortune in Hong Kong, but more importantly, they forged an invisible alliance with a host of wealthy and influential families through marriage, mentorship, and other means.

For example, Macau casino tycoon He Xin is actually a branch of the He family.

By getting such families on his side, Peng Jiakang could ensure that nothing went wrong.

Thinking of this, Peng Jiakang smiled slightly and said slowly, "Mr. He, you are businessmen, so I will only talk to you about business matters. I need you businessmen who love Hong Kong and are genuinely concerned for the good of Hong Kong to join forces to remove Li Jun's capital from Hong Kong."

“Governor, you should know better than us that what’s scary about Li Jun isn’t how much money he has.”

He Dong said calmly.

“Mr. Ho, that’s why I just said I’m only talking to you about business matters. You don’t need to worry about other things; the Hong Kong government will take care of them.”

Peng Jiakang said with a smile.

Upon hearing Peng Jiakang's words, He Dong's eyes flickered slightly, and he continued to ask, "Governor, there are too many victims under Li Jun's command. Whether for the sake of my family or my clan, I hope you can give me peace of mind."

At this point, He Dong paused slightly, looked at Guo Yongnian and Li Peicai and said with a smile, "I think Mr. Guo and Mr. Li think the same way I do."

"Not bad!"

"That's right!"

　8 As soon as He Dong finished speaking, Guo Yongnian and Li Peicai nodded in agreement.

Whether it was He Dong, Guo Yongnian, or Li Peicai, they had all experienced the cunning and ruthlessness of the foreigners. Among the three of them present, they were not considered "one of the foreigners' own people." If they did not make everything clear, they were very likely to be tricked by Peng Jiakang, this foreigner.
