Film and Television: Starting from Leading Three Thousand Disciples Ashore

90 pounds!

The reporter snapped away, recording the numbers.

Anger gathered in the air above the dock.

Even Li Wenbin didn't dare to speak at this moment, only nervously wiping away sweat.

Lu Wendong was devastated.

He pointed to himself with his right hand, then to the boatmen around him whose eyes were red.

Then they asked, "Are we Tanka people human?"

"Is it even human?"

"Of the 100 pounds of fish we caught, we sold 90 pounds!"

"These scoundrels from Hung Hing take 4% of the profits, the market takes 1%, and then powerful people take another 2%."

"We braved the storms at sea, living hand to mouth, and in the end, we received less than 20%!"

Click, click!

I'll crush it with my steel teeth!

The anger spreads!

"No one is standing up for us."

The hands gripping the fish-killing knife were trembling.

The reporters couldn't help but step back.

"Don't be afraid, everyone."

Lu Wendong gave a bitter laugh: "We people on the water may be illiterate, but we worship the Heavenly Queen."

"For so many years, he has worked hard without complaint."

"We just want to survive."

Lu Wendong angrily pointed to the southeast corner: "Liang Kun, it's because we didn't directly agree to give him 4% of the profits."

"He burned our boat while we were worshipping the Heavenly Queen."

The reporters were in an uproar.

What?

Was today's fire started by gangsters?

Who gave them such audacity?

Li Wenbin, who was hiding among the reporters, stared intently at Liang Kun's corpse on the ground.

He felt that what Lu Wendong said was theoretically sound, but logically problematic.

pity…

The Tanka people of Shek Pai Wan are now enraged.

Li Wenbin knew very well that reasoning was useless at this time.

These people don't want to listen to reason.

"Sir..."

The woman, having stepped off the electronic scale, mustered her courage and pointed the microphone at Lu Wendong.

"What are your demands?"

"We just want to live."

Lu Wendong said, "We don't understand!"

Why are hardworking people destined to be exploited?

"Why can't the foreigners see us?"

"Why can gangsters burn down our homes just because we don't want to pay such a large sum?"

"What exactly did we do wrong?"

"My ancestors have been rooted in Shek Pai Wan for over a hundred years."

"Now, on Hong Kong Island, is there no longer any space for us boat people to live?"

Li Wenbin crouched low and ran out from the group of reporters, sprinting towards the command vehicle.

"Sir!"

"A leader has emerged among the boat people of Shek Pai Wan."

"They are no longer a disorganized bunch."

"The situation that followed was beyond the capabilities of our police force."

"I think we should report this to Taipingshan immediately and have them send a special official to handle it."

Although it was only a short ten minutes, it was enough for Li Wenbin to understand the situation.

They realized how capable the young man who spoke was.

This guy is unpredictable!

This is another remarkable person from the water.

What's even more impressive is that this person uses political tactics...

The foreigner slapped his thigh, realizing that was exactly what he wanted to hear!

He immediately picked up the phone and reported to his superiors.

Finally, the foreigner asked, "Won't they riot?"

Li Wenbin remained silent.

He was thinking of Lu Wendong, who was talking on the dock.

very young!

He's at most in his twenties...

They were dressed in nothing more than a t-shirt and beach shorts, and had no shoes.

This is the most common attire for people living on the water.

If you met him normally, you'd just think he was a handsome guy.

Who knew it was actually a vicious dragon.

Looking at the Shek Pai Wan area, Li Wenbin fears that Lu Wendong will be the one to take charge.

"Oh, God..."

The foreigner immediately knew that things were going to get really serious today.

He then continued making phone calls.

Then Li Wenbin was put in charge of maintaining discipline at the scene.

Li Wenbin then went to find Huang Yongqiang.

Chen Shuisheng is here too!

The two were talking, and both looked rather unhappy.

As leaders of the water-dwelling community, Chen Shuisheng and Huang Yongqiang sensed a change taking place in Shek Pai Wan.

And this change came from Lu Wendong!

Before this, I really couldn't have imagined that this young man from the Lu family would be so ruthless and decisive!

"What a wolf cub."

Upon seeing Li Wenbin approaching, Huang Yongqiang and Chen Shuisheng immediately ended their conversation.

Who is Lu Wendong?

"Why do so many people who live on the water listen to him?"

"Can you handle this situation?"

Neither Huang Yongqiang nor Chen Shuisheng uttered a word.

"Officer, more than two hundred boats have been burned."

Chen Shuisheng sneered: "What does your government plan to do?"

"Should we provide public housing or help build a new boat?"

Li Wenbin immediately shut up.

Neither of these permissions was something he could grant.

Chen Shuisheng snorted: "It's always the same."

"All you do is talk big."

Feeling agitated, he immediately led his men away from the other side.

As for Huang Yongqiang...

"Officers, what's going on?"

Huang Yongqiang said, "My men all saw Lu Wendong and his gang kill people."

"Police-community cooperation is absolutely not a problem!"

"The police have their own considerations and arrangements when they do things."

"Damn it! I came here just to listen to your nonsense?"

Upon hearing this, Huang Yongqiang immediately turned and left.

On the other side, Lu Wendong was still dealing with reporters with a heavy heart at the dock.

Unbeknownst to him, a large group of Tanka people had already gathered behind him.

Help the elderly and children!

"Please help us get justice."

Lu Wendong cupped his hands in a gesture of respect: "We just want justice!"

Wow!

On the pier, a group of Tanka people bowed to each other.

A group of reporters felt a chill run down their spines.

With a series of hurried steps, Li Wenbin, who had returned, arrived with a group of people.

"Health, Welfare and Food Bureau, Urban Council, Public Housing Authority..."

Li Wenbin called out, "Please send a representative over for a talk."

In the conference room of the fish market management office, Lu Wendong was with Manzi and Chen Ergou, who had performed well in the previous battle.

Opposite the three were five people sent by the government.

Sitting in the very center was a foreigner in his forties.

"The fire was set by Liang Kun and Silly Qiang; we have confirmed that."

Standing guard at the door, Li Wenbin thought to himself, "This guy is fiercer than the police..."

You have the right to speak without even conducting any investigation?

However, Li Wenbin knew that the police force was not the main focus.

The government and the Tanka people are the ones who are wrong.

"A life for a life, a debt for a debt."

Lu Wendong made his first demand: "Hung Hing must compensate us for our losses this time."

"At the same time, Hung Hing's Chiang Tin-sang must come and apologize to us in person."

"This is a hard and fast condition, there's no room for negotiation!"

Translating for foreigners.

Gibberish.

Lu Wendong then switched to using foreign languages.

Manzi and Chen Ergou stared at Lu Wendong in bewilderment.

Dong Ge is indeed Dong Ge; he only went to school for a few years, yet he can speak foreign languages?

The foreigner immediately spoke to Lu Wendong: "Can you make the decision?"

"Is it possible to handle them?"

Lu Wendong sneered.

They really are the foreigners I knew.

"If you have money, you can solve anything! If you don't have money, you'll have to take to the streets."

The foreigner's expression remained unchanged: "How much?"

"Ten million!"

"Hung Hing is rich, they can afford it."

The two continued their discussion in a low voice.

The two barbarians standing next to him, Manzi and Chen Ergou, were completely blind and couldn't understand a word they heard.

Dong Ge said, "We need to let the foreigners know that we're all determined to go all in!"

They didn't know what to do, so they just stared at the other side with fierce eyes.
