Hong Kong variety show: Hung Hing, are you contributing to society?

Lin Yaodong exhaled a smoke ring, the smoke blurring his eyes behind his glasses, but his voice was exceptionally clear and firm: "Because, in seven years, Hong Kong Island will be returned to China."

return?

The word startled all three of them.

They are not politically astute, but the consensus is that the return signifies a major shift.

"The world will be transformed then," Lin Yaodong said slowly. "We can no longer be gangsters; that's a dead end..."

"We need to change our ways, we need to...be patriotic."

"Patriotism?" Xiao Fu murmured, the concept seeming somewhat distant to them.

"Yes, patriotism," Lin Yaodong said firmly. "Therefore, we must complete our empire building and successfully launder our money within this seven-year window of opportunity! We must ensure that we and our businesses are in the open before the handover."

He stood up, walked to the wall of books, pulled out a thick law book, and patted it gently: "When we are clean enough and strong enough, I will run for parliament!"

Let us seize greater influence and strive for a bright and just future for ourselves and for everyone on this path!

His words were full of heroic spirit: "This is just the beginning."

After that, we will build schools, truly charitable schools, so that those helpless orphans can attend school for free, receive the best education, and have no worries about the future.

Then, guide them to take the police academy entrance exam and become police officers to maintain order... to study law and become lawyers who uphold justice... to take the civil service exam and enter various government departments...

We want to build nursing homes so that those lonely elderly people can be cared for in their old age and live out their remaining years in peace. As for their estates after they pass away without anyone to inherit them... cough cough,

Lin Yaodong stopped talking at the right moment, but the meaning was self-evident: "Of course, the main thing is to contribute to society..."

This series of plans, from the current property consolidation to future political ambitions and educational philanthropic initiatives, are interconnected and far-reaching.

Gao Jin, Xiao Fu, and Jiang Xin were deeply moved and their blood was boiling.

They live a life of crime and danger, but deep down, don't they also yearn for a stable and bright future?

Lin Yaodong not only gave them hope, but also painted a broad road to the top of the pyramid!

Their gazes toward Lin Yaodong were filled with unprecedented admiration and unwavering devotion.

"Gao Jin, you'll have to put in a lot of effort with the property management company. Get the framework up and running as soon as possible and come up with the articles of association," Lin Yaodong began to assign specific tasks.

"Understood, Brother Dong," Gao Jin replied in a deep voice, his usually cold eyes now filled with a rare surge of passion.

"Next, the construction company." Lin Yaodong looked at Xiao Fu. "Xiao Fu, I'm leaving it to you."

The land I told you about, plus the newly won bid, will be developed together to build commercial housing.

This is a legitimate and lucrative business, and a crucial part of the laundering process. I trust your expertise.

Xiao Fu nodded emphatically: "Brother Dong, I will definitely do my best!"

From hitman to bar manager, and then to head of a construction company, every step he took was a challenge, but also a testament to Lin Yaodong's trust in and cultivation of his abilities.

"Jiang Xin," Lin Yaodong said, turning to the driver one last time, "you will stay with me and be my driver."

But you're not just the driver; you'll be responsible for all tasks that require directly relaying my instructions, coordinating with various parties, and handling emergencies.

You are my special assistant, my eyes and ears.

Jiang Xin's spirits lifted. This position, though seemingly less independent than Gao Jin's and Xiao Fu's, was the closest to the core of power, reflecting absolute trust.

"Brother Dong, from now on, I'll use my driving skills on the right track. I guarantee it'll be fast and stable!"

After making the arrangements, Lin Yaodong waved his hand: "Alright, everyone go about your business. Remember, although we are pressed for time, we must proceed with caution at every step."

The three men stood up, solemnly acknowledged the order, and left the office.

Lin Yaodong was the only one left in the office.

He walked to the window again, gazing at the Mong Kok he was about to completely transform. His eyes were deep, as if he could already see the completely different world seven years from now.

The next morning, in the dim light of dawn, Jiang Xin drove his Bentley, carrying Lin Yaodong, to the villa of Hung Hing leader Jiang Tiansheng located halfway up the mountain.

He and Jiang Tiansheng sat down in the study, where a servant served them fragrant tea.

Jiang Tiansheng still maintained his refined demeanor, but there was a hint of scrutiny in his eyes.

Lam Yiu-tung has taken over the reins of Mong Kok and swallowed up Leung Kwan's businesses. His actions are quite significant. He needs to understand the young man's true thoughts.

"Ah Tung, how's it going with Mong Kok?" Jiang Tiansheng asked casually, taking a sip of tea.

"Mr. Chiang, everything is under control." Lin Yaodong adopted a humble posture and spoke respectfully. "I am currently working on some...modern integration of the properties in Mong Kok."

"Oh? How will you integrate it?" Jiang Tiansheng asked, intrigued.

Lin Yaodong elaborated on the concept of "Oriental Property" in a more concise way, focusing more on the overall interests of Hung Hing.

He emphasized the possibility of converting gray income such as protection fees and security fees into legitimate income by providing substantive property services, and mentioned integrating various resources in the Mong Kok area to achieve unified and standardized management, thereby improving efficiency and profits.

Of course, he omitted his grand plans to eventually absorb other triads, run for legislator, and lay out the future, only describing Oriental Property Company as an effective path to help Hung Hing successfully launder its money and grow stronger.

As Jiang Tiansheng listened, his fingers tapped lightly on the armrest of the mahogany chair, his eyes growing brighter and brighter.

He had long wanted to lead Hung Hing to transform itself and shed its image of violence, but he had been struggling to find a good solution.

Lin Yaodong's proposed "corporatization" operating model was clear in its thinking and highly feasible. It sounded like it could not only make money, but also greatly improve the image of the gang and legalize illegal income. This really hit the nail on the head for him.

"Interesting, very interesting!" Jiang Tiansheng put down his teacup and smiled.

"Ah Dong, you really didn't disappoint me. Your ideas are very forward-thinking and constructive."

After a moment's thought, he made a decision: "Here's what you'll do: start in Mong Kok and make your 'company' model a template."

If it really works well and allows us Hung Hing brothers to earn more stable and cleaner money, I will promote it throughout the entire Hung Hing organization. I'll provide funding and resources as needed, and fully support you!

Lin Yaodong was certain that what he wanted was Jiang Tiansheng's words and attitude.

With the support of the leader, his reforms in Mong Kok were able to reduce internal resistance and proceed smoothly.

"Thank you for your trust, Mr. Jiang! I will definitely not let you down and will make a name for myself in Mong Kok as soon as possible!" Lin Yaodong said with great sincerity.

It's a bit of a pity that I didn't see Jiang Tiansheng's sister-in-law, Fang Ting, during this visit to Jiang Tiansheng's villa.

Unbeknownst to Lin Yaodong, Fang Ting was secretly observing him from behind the curtains in her second-floor room.

Fang Ting came out after Lin Yaodong left the villa, gazing longingly in the direction he had gone.

Jiang Tiansheng chuckled and glanced at Fang Ting: "Look at you, so slutty~~"

Fang Ting playfully patted Jiang Tiansheng's shoulder: "It was all your idea...you've got me all itchy~~"

After flirting and teasing.

Fang Ting asked, "Honey, are we really going to borrow... sperm from A Dong?"

At this point, Jiang Tiansheng's smile faded: "You know my health condition... and you've always wanted a child..."

"But..." Fang Ting looked hesitant, but in her heart she was already looking forward to it.

But she understood men's minds well and knew exactly how to handle Jiang Tiansheng.

Jiang Tiansheng: "It's alright... I'll arrange it... I'll find an opportunity, or a coincidence, and get it done without anyone noticing..."

Fang Ting: "I'll listen to my husband~~"
