"The police launched an anti-gang operation across Hong Kong. On the first day, they arrested 142 triad members, 1 internationally wanted criminal, and a total of 7 other criminals. The anti-gang operation has achieved remarkable results!" - "Hong Kong Times"
…
Kang Jianfei really didn't expect that his actions would cause such a big fuss, and that the subsequent situation was no longer under everyone's control.
This is also the reason why gangs in Hong Kong do not use guns when fighting. Hong Kong has extremely strict control over guns. Once a gun is used, it will immediately become the target of severe police crackdowns. At the same time, gun battles can easily become serious, causing a certain degree of social chaos. Panic. After being fermented by the media, the police had to deal with it seriously and even launched a large-scale anti-gang operation.
People often compare gangsters like Zhang Ziqiang with gangsters like Xiang Huaqiang, saying who is more awesome. In fact, there is no comparison.
Zhang Ziqiang led a group of people to kidnap and rob. Use submachine guns, grenades, etc. whichever is more powerful. Anyway, when the deal is successful, he will immediately escape. But Xiang Huaqiang and his men cannot do this, they can only be honest They pick up knives and kill people on the spot, because the association has its own fixed territory. If the use of firearms offends the police or arouses public opinion, they themselves will be the unlucky ones.
Just like now, the British Hong Kong government and the police force were angered by a series of incidents. As soon as the anti-gang operation came out, all the associations in Hong Kong were in trouble.
The farce that lasted for more than half a month in Causeway Bay finally came to an end. All the gang bosses in that area were invited by the police to have tea.
After negotiation in the police station, the police allowed them to pay bail and leave. All that was left was to re-draw the territory according to the outcome of the negotiation, and then just sit back and collect protection fees and open a gambling stall.
In the official propaganda, the police used anti-gang operations to deter Xiao Xiao, and Hong Kong's security has greatly improved. However, the actual situation is that several gangs were forced to compromise with each other due to the situation, and they continued to play whatever they wanted after the limelight.
Chen Guifang, who was secretly supported by Kang Jianfei, was also a figure. This guy bit He Sheng to death. In order to fight for territory, he assassinated the gang bosses and Ji Ji, and broke the rules on the road and used weapons. He used the excuse to avenge Brother Chen and Brother Xiang,
He quickly gathered the hearts of the community, and then took his brothers to He Shenghe's territory to provoke him. Basically, there was a bloody battle every three days, and everyone had a winner and a loser.
It can be said that the whole thing got bigger and bigger, and Chen Guifang played a very key role in it, while He Shenghe was like mud falling out of his crotch - either shit or shit. Except for the Xiang brothers and Chen Huimin, they guessed a little bit of the truth.
In addition, other community members in Hong Kong all believed that Da Touchen and Kuili Xiang were really responsible for the assassination.
Finally, under the pressure of the police and the hatred of other gangs, He Shenghe had to give up the territory of a street and assigned it to Chen Guifang's Zidu management.
…
Ngee Ann Company.
Xiang Huayan, the leader of Xin Nghe An, lit his cigar and asked in surprise: "You said Kang Jianfei hired someone to assassinate Da Tou Chen? The whole incident was just because Da Tou Chen slapped the female star twice?"
Xiang Huaqiang nodded: "He most likely found someone to do it."
"But what good will this do to him?" Xiang Huayan asked. With Xin Ngong's strength, it is natural to find someone to kill Datou Chen secretly, but after Datou Chen dies, it will not do any good to Xin Ngong. At worst, it will be replaced by another one.
A person with 14k will be the boss.
Similarly, Xiang Huayan also couldn't figure out why Kang Jianfei went to such trouble to do such a thing, because Da Touchen's death meant nothing to Kang Jianfei.
"I have heard of one thing," Xiang Huasheng said, "Jiahe once secretly poached DreamWorks to sign Zhou Runfa. As a result, Zou Wenhuai received a photo of his grandson and a bullet within a few days."
Xiang Huaqiang nodded and agreed, "I've heard about this too."
Xiang Huayan said speechlessly: "That Kang Jianfei is crazy, right? His style of doing things is more like the underworld than ours."
Xiang Huasheng smiled bitterly and said: "It's better not to provoke this person in the future. Let's give him a discount on the regular money he spends in the theaters in our territory as a sign of friendship."
"A Sheng, you have to do this," Xiang Huayan said to his younger brother. "If you really want to make good friends with Kang Jianfei, then cancel all the protection fees for his theaters, or continue to charge as usual, but pay normal fees to Kang Jianfei."
Take good care of him. What do you mean by discounting protection like this? First, it seems that you are too petty. Second, it does not show our sincerity at all."
Xiang Huasheng said in a learned voice: "Brother, I understand."
"You can charge the protection fees of Oriental Cinemas as you wish. Just pretend that nothing happened and don't cause any friction with Kang Jianfei in the future." Xiang Huayan said.
Speaking of which, others may not believe it, but the leading boss of Xin Ngee'an, who has 200,000 brothers under his command, was actually frightened by Kang Jianfei's methods this time. Just like all the club bosses don't want to provoke Zhang Ziqiang, you don't want to
The guy who knows exactly what he wants but may act randomly at any time is the most troublesome.
Hong Kong associations often do the trick of sinking sacks into the sea, and often chop people's hands and feet into pieces, but no one has ever used gasoline to burn a dozen people in a car alive. Even the members of the association can't tolerate such crazy methods.
Look directly.
Kang Jianfei disclosed the information to Xiang Huaqiang and Chen Huimin without any scruples. The real purpose was to scare the monkeys and show off his muscles to the Hong Kong society.
Of course, Kang Jianfei will never admit that he is involved in this matter. He has always been a good, honest and law-abiding citizen.
In the following ten years, the truth about this incident was circulated on a small scale among major societies, and indeed no gang dared to touch the people of the Oriental Culture and Entertainment Group.
It's not that those gangsters are really afraid of Kang Jianfei, but they respect and fear each other. Kang Jianfei's companies will still pay the protection fees. Naturally, he will not be stupid enough to provoke people in the gang, otherwise the other party will just
Sending Ma Chai to the major theaters of Oriental Cinema every day to cause trouble was enough for Kang Jianfei to drink.
…
A tea restaurant in Kowloon.
Chen Huimin stirred the tea with a sugar spoon and said in a complicated tone: "Brother, did you go too far this time?"
Kang Jianfei smiled and asked: "What did I do? I haven't done anything. I have been filming movies honestly during this time."
"Oh, you know what I'm talking about," Chen Huimin sighed, "Actually, it's just a small matter, why make it such a big deal? After all, you are a businessman, there is no need to fight with us Kuhaha who lick blood from the edge of a knife."
Kang Jianfei put away his smile: "Did you know that Da Touchen received protection money from my studio? That little bit of protection money is nothing, but I know that if I don't react, Da Touchen and other gangs will
, my appetite will grow even more in the future.”
In another time and space, in early 1992, it was the peak period of the prosperity of Hong Kong films. All the major gangs invested in film companies to make films to make money and launder money. Gang film companies could not compete in terms of quality, and all kinds of off-site recruitment brought great troubles.
Come in, when Huang Baiming and the New Year's film "Happy Events in the Family" were in post-editing, a group of gang members rushed into Huang Baiming's company, tied up all the employees inside and outside the editing room, and finally edited the edited "Happy Events in the Family"
The pornographic films were taken away as negatives.
Fortunately, those people grabbed it wrong, otherwise Huang Baiming would have lost all his money, because the starring roles of this movie are Leslie Cheung, Stephen Chow, Mao Shunyun, Maggie Cheung and Sandra Ng. The actors' remuneration alone is a lot of money.
A series of other incidents such as pointing a gun at the forehead, sending bullets to hire actors, kidnapping celebrity agents to threaten them not to take roles with a certain company, extorting huge amounts of protection money every day during filming and delaying progress, etc., are endless.
Kang Jianfei didn't want to have troubles in the next few years, so he wanted to get rid of the problem once and for all, and show his tough attitude before talking about it.
As for the possible troubles this matter may bring, Kang Jianfei has already thought carefully about it. One is the revenge from 14k, and the other is the police investigation.
There is no need to worry about the previous point, because 14k was already in disarray more than ten years ago. Many times, the big guys of 14k are still fighting among themselves for turf. Without huge benefits, it is impossible for anyone to die for Datou Chen.
Ku Lixiang, Da Touchen's most sincere subordinate, had long since been burned to charcoal in the van. Chen Guifang's hatred of the rest of the gang was attracted to He Shenghe, and Kang Jianfei did not get a trace of it.
And the police don't have to worry. Without evidence, they can't come to arrest a celebrity like Kang Jianfei. The last time they came to the crew of "Fang Fang" to find Kang Jianfei, they just asked a few questions and then left.
After killing Datou Chen, Kang Jianfei had another benefit, which was that he secretly supported Chen Guifang to become a boss. This was a hidden chess piece that could be used at any time.
Kang Jianfei never thought of using a gun with handprints as a handle to instruct Chen Guifang, but he could continue to financially sponsor him, or even smuggle arms through Ye Laosan. There shouldn't be too many old guns that have been eliminated from the mainland.
Among those veterans, some are willing to join the underworld. Kang Jianfei also respects his choice. Chen Guifang may have a few more strong generals at any time. Not to mention that he can become the overlord of Causeway Bay, at least it is still possible for 14k to unify the two forces in Causeway Bay.
Yes, that would occupy half of Causeway Bay.
Chen Huimin chatted for a while before settling the bill and leaving. He originally had a good impression of Kang Jianfei, but now he is a little disgusted and wary of him. It is true that he and Da Touchen usually have some conflicts, but they are both 14k bosses. Once Da Touchen dies, Chen Huimin will inevitably
You will feel the sadness of a rabbit dying and a fox dying.
Chen Huimin originally thought that Kang Jianfei's revenge was just a small fight, so he was happy to see Datou Chen defeated. How could he have thought that Kang Jianfei would directly find someone to assassinate him. (To be continued...) u
