Chapter 192 Hong Kong Island is still the world of Hung Hing!
It is a strange thing in itself that people from Macau go to Hong Kong to invest.
Even in this era of increasingly obvious economic globalization, aren't these people too far ahead of the times?
Zhou Shengpeng didn't believe that they could have such a big picture view. It would be more accurate to say that they were just trying to make money rather than talking about business.
I don't have such a good temper to spoil them, and after a while, my patience has naturally worn out.
"You old Macau guys all like to stick to your own areas of expertise. If I were to ask you, how about investing in my film and television company?
You've seen the movie, and I believe that during this period, more and more people will be willing to try different emerging industries. Investing now will give you more shares."
Of course, what Zhou Shengpeng did not explicitly mention were the details of the shares.
It did not even say what percentage of shares were allocated to them.
These methods require clear legal documents and a complete identification process to be implemented, but Zhou Shengpeng is not worried about any problems.
So far, Hong Kong Island is still the world of Hung Hing!
Even though there are so many gangs, even though there are wolves lurking around and tigers eager to devour flesh and blood, no matter who wants to come to Hong Kong to eat a piece of meat.
Everyone has to pay a corresponding price.
Not to mention the consequences of competing with Hongxing. If you win, it's fine. Hongxing just needs to cultivate their character honestly.
But if the challenger loses, the consequences will be serious. It would be best if they could seize some of the benefits in this way.
Getting the maximum profit at the lowest cost is what businessmen pursue.
It doesn’t matter whether this thing is right or wrong, whether the result is good or bad, or what impact it will have on yourself.
Only one thing matters: how much money you can get.
Once these two points are made clear, all other things like benevolence, righteousness, and morality are false.
"Then let's get straight to the point and talk business. Our place on Hong Kong Island needs to be protected in all aspects. We can't be careless. Can you accept this?"
"Isn't this the most basic thing? I think this should be a good thing for everyone."
This way, it’s good for you, it’s good for me, and it’s good for everyone. Why not have such an outcome?
At least at this stage, Zhou Shengpeng has no intention of expanding the power of his subordinates to this extent. It would be best to have a relatively smart and capable partner.
Datuk is a sinister and cunning person, but he also has a good business sense. As long as the person he is cheating is not himself, he will do whatever he wants.
It won't affect me, and it won't involve Hongxing. What remains is just to see how big and strong he can become.
As for the consequences, I can afford it!
"Wow, so many people are here. How about we play a round? It would be a shame not to play some cards here. What do you think, Brother Peng?"
Zhou Shengpeng knew who the voice belonged to without even looking. Since Datuk decided to cooperate, he would definitely find more than just one partner.
Compared to Hung Hing, Tung Sing is also a good choice. Among the Five Tigers of Tung Sing, Situ is probably the only one who has a stable personality and is also involved in business.
"Mr. Situ, I'm glad you're willing to join this gathering. Now that everyone is here, can we chat?"
The dealer was a random passerby who looked very nervous. As a waiter in the hotel, he certainly understood what kind of people these guys were.
In order to avoid setbacks, you can only cut the cards obediently.
Of course, this is the only way to ensure fairness. No matter who is dealing the cards, there is always a possibility of cheating. If he catches a passerby, he won't dare to offend anyone.
"Hung Hing hasn't been able to unify Hong Kong Island for so many years, so I think it's not too much to split it in half.
We put in the money and the effort and take the lion's share. You, Hongxing, just need to keep the place running well and split 50% of the profits with Dongxing. This deal is a good one!"
Dato leaned over the cards in his hand, pondering them while offering his own ideas.
In fact, he originally wanted a larger share, but considering Zhou Shengpeng's intelligence, it was not a good idea to make money in such a petty way.
If we have to lose, let Zhou Shengpeng lose big. It's not worth it to play tricks on such a small matter.
"I think this matter is okay. The status of the Hongxing big brother is still there! Am I right, Brother Kunpeng?"
"I think this matter is quite simple. We all have our own territories, so we can invest in different territories.
Wouldn't it be better to just see who has the highest turnover and then let the one with the highest turnover take over the management rights?"
This is the simplest and most direct way to determine who is the most suitable partner, but in fact, Datuk just wanted Zhou Shengpeng to participate.
There is no reason to doubt his management ability.
But Uncle Jiu insisted that Dongxing come as well, and he couldn't refuse, so he had to compromise.
"I'll let this outdated method go, Brother Kunpeng. Mr. Jiang and our Camel Boss have already discussed it.
In the future, we will make money and do business together. It’s too awkward to separate you and me at this time.”
Zhou Shengpeng didn't understand why Mr. Jiang was so anxious. Neither his brother nor the leaders of the various gangs under him had any interest in clinging to his position.
But he insisted on stirring up trouble. Isn't that just causing trouble for himself? It would be nice if things were peaceful and stable, so why escalate it to this point?
"I think you may have made a mistake. I am indeed from Hongxing, but I am sitting here to discuss business using my own identity.
It has nothing to do with Hongxing, so if you have any business, just be frank and speak frankly."
"21, big! Mr. Zhou wins!"
As Zhou Shengpeng uttered the last word, the cards in his hand were revealed, and it was exactly 21 points.
But at this moment, Wuying suddenly came up and whispered a few words in Zhou Shengpeng's ear. His face, which was originally full of pride, suddenly changed.
"Alright, that's great! Is this how you show your hospitality? I'm here to discuss business with you, but our Hongxing branch has been targeted!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the whole table made a dull sound.
The handprints were left on the table, and his men turned and left. With such a big thing happening, he had no mood to sit here and waste time arguing with them.
"Mr. Situ, this should be done by you, right? Isn't it a bit too unethical to do this?"
"Hey, hey, hey, don't talk nonsense without any evidence."
"We, Dongxing and Hongxing, are now cooperative organizations. We are all tied together in everything. How could we possibly stab our brothers in the back at a time like this? If you want to be unkind, then don't throw this pot of water on us!"
No one knew who had done this. When Zhou Shengpeng and his team arrived at the hall, they saw their brothers injured and disabled, and they felt full of guilt.
He didn't expect that someone would break the rules first and even start fighting on someone else's territory.
"Are there any brothers who have died? This is the fourth time this has happened this month. If you say it has nothing to do with the East Star people, I will never believe it. What on earth is Mr. Jiang doing by collaborating with East Star?"
"Brother Peng, we've finished counting. The brothers were only slightly injured, and there were no deaths!"
"First, send all the injured brothers to the hospital for treatment. I must go to Mr. Jiang to ask for an explanation for this matter!"
Zhou Shengpeng flew back to Hong Kong overnight.
Although the casino business is important, if they want to do business in Hong Kong Island, they must come in person. It’s not too late to talk then!
For now, let's see what kind of calculations they have in mind. If we don't handle this matter properly, we will never be able to develop our career with peace of mind.
"Mr. Jiang, what do you mean by this? Such a big thing happened in Macau, and you still have the mind to leisurely stroll here. Do you really not regard our brothers as human beings?"
"Don't be anxious, you young people are just too impatient.
I really let this matter go, and the reputation has already spread. Isn't it enough for us in Hongxing to repay evil with kindness?"
"I think you really don't want to continue in this position.
Do you think those brothers will let you continue like this? Time and time again, you really disappoint everyone! "
Many people can see Zhou Shengpeng's emotions, and many people regard him as a trustworthy idol.
Just like Brother Xiao Ma in A Better Tomorrow, he would risk his life for his brothers and dared to contradict Mr. Jiang for the sake of his many brothers. This was definitely the first time in history.
In the past, Mr. Jiang had the final say in Hongxing. Small sacrifices were necessary, and no one cared about the lives of the little brothers.
"I told you, if you want to make money, just do it honestly. Don't interfere in the society's affairs. If you can't stand seeing this kind of thing happen, then just stay out of these things!"
"Okay, then I don't care!"
No one expected that at this critical juncture, Zhou Shengpeng would actually overturn the table, and be so decisive.
On the contrary, the reason was trivial, just that the brothers had received a beating.
In the past, when people were in gangs, everyone had some injuries. Now, all the big guys in each gang are covered with scars, so why are the little brothers not doing well?
"Do you really think that just because you made a movie, made a little money, invested in real estate, and own a film and television base, you can challenge me?
He is still too young. Let’s find some people to pretend to be the Dongxing guys and mess with him. Let him know how powerful we are!
Wuying, who drove Zhou Shengpeng home on time, didn't understand why they had to make such a fuss over such a small matter.
According to Zhou Shengpeng, this is a means to gain fame and it is a necessary sacrifice.
He will be able to recover after just a month or so of rest. Isn’t it a bit too hasty to have a falling out over this?
"Don't you also think it's inappropriate for me to turn against you? I've clearly worked my way up under Mr. Jiang, and now I'm blaming him."
Indeed, there is a little bit of that. Because Mr. Jiang has always done things in this style, and the fact that Hongxing has been able to maintain its position as the boss is entirely due to Mr. Jiang's methods.
