Chapter 298: The Road to the Jianghu
It is not always a good thing to recognize the differences between each other.
Just like now, after Ge Zhixiong realized Wei Longhao's tactics, he became extremely unconfident about the future of the Number Gang.
This deep feeling of powerlessness put him in a dilemma.
Although he still had great ambitions, he had to accept that Wei Long Hao was like a mountain, standing in front of all the underworld people in Hong Kong Island, suppressing them forever.
As for retreating, since I embarked on this path, retreat has never been an option.
Just when Ge Zhixiong was lost in deep thought, he happened to see Wu Zhaonan chatting nearby. An idea suddenly came to his mind.
Those younger brothers of Hutchison who have responsibilities are all doing their duties faithfully.
Those who had no assigned tasks also joined in the carnival.
In the center of the square, on a built stage.
Several young men dressed in avant-garde and trendy clothes, wearing jewelry and earrings, carrying guitars and basses, walked slowly onto the stage.
As a newcomer in the music industry, although Wong Ka Kui was signed by Hutchison Entertainment, he had not yet made his debut. The opportunity to perform on stage in front of such a large audience still made him a little nervous.
But, the moment the music started.
All the emotions related to tension were thrown behind him.
【Bored saw hesitation】
【It is not easy to achieve the ideal】
[Even if I have confidence, my fighting spirit is suppressed]
[Who decides whether I go or stay?]
[Determine the Universe in My Heart]
[I just want to rely on my own hands and wave towards my ideal]
[Ask how high the sky is, my aspirations are higher than the sky]
[Live to old age with a self-confidence mentality]
Listening to the lyrics and the perfect accompaniment, people in the square stood up and clapped their hands.
There were even people humming along with the melody.
Listening to the lyrics, Wuying was touched. He put down the wine glass in his hand and exclaimed: "It's really well sung, especially this lyric, it really touched my heart."
"It seems that our Hutchison is going to have another big star."
At this time, Wuying was no longer as shabby as before. He not only wore a suit and tie, but also a Rolex on his wrist.
Although it is only the lowest-end model and a second-hand one, Wuying still likes it very much.
He was extremely grateful for his decision to join Hutchison, and he was extremely grateful and admired Brother Hao, a loyal and righteous boss who was like a rebirth for him.
It is no exaggeration to say that a casual word from Brother Hao, a very ordinary order, is enough to change the fate of these low-class people.
Moreover, Wuying has learned a lot since joining the club.
The fly, who used to be eager to stand out, gradually understood the principle of contentment.
"Who says it's not true? I heard that this Huang Jiaju was hand-picked by Brother Hao."
"Everyone in the entire company knows that anyone selected by Brother Hao has a bright future."
Taibao said as he lit a cigarette. Judging from the brand on the box, he was smoking a Camel brand. Although it was not expensive, it was undoubtedly a world of difference compared to his previous situation where he could only pick up cigarette butts everywhere.
He was no longer wearing the same shabby shirt as always, but a black suit.
Although it is not a luxurious brand, it is quite suitable to wear.
Obviously, Taibao is no longer the humble parking boy. Although he is still not the big brother, his income should have increased significantly.
"Among all the societies in Hong Kong Island, only Shing Wo, under the leadership of Brother Hao, truly cares about the low-income people."
"I made over 6,000 silver last month, and I estimate that next month's income will be no less than that."
"At this rate, it won't be long before I get stuck in the car."
Taibao said this very happily, his face full of genuine yearning for a better tomorrow.
For him, being outstanding is never his goal. Living a peaceful life with hope in life is the real meaning.
There are many scoundrels like Taibao, but there are definitely quite a few.
The vast majority of people embark on this path of life just to support their families and make a living.
But as time goes by, many things are beyond my control.
It was Brother Hao who gave them a chance to choose.
And for many people like Taibao, this opportunity is priceless.
Hearing this, Wuying was obviously very happy and said, "Then congratulations in advance. By the way, speaking of this, my younger brother is getting married next month, you must come!"
Taibao immediately slapped his thigh and said confidently: "When your brother gets married, I will definitely be there and I promise to give him a big red envelope."
"By the way, where will the wedding be held?"
Wuying immediately said, "Of course it's at Hutchison Restaurant. Not only is it the company's business, but the chef's craftsmanship is also very good. Most importantly, employees like us can get a 20% discount if we go there. Not only are the products good, but the prices are also cheap enough!"
"Not only does every table have abalone, but they also have bird's nest porridge."
"Most importantly, the air conditioning is sufficient. Even if there are many guests, we won't feel hot at all..."
Wuying enumerated all the advantages, and Taibao nodded in agreement.
For people like them, this kind of life is good enough.
Looking at this kind of life, in the Hong Kong underworld, only Hutchison can bring them this.
If anyone tries to destroy this beauty, Sheng and countless people like them will try their best to protect this hard-earned beauty even at the risk of their lives.
Next, several artists signed by Hutchison Entertainment began to perform on stage.
The beautiful song made everyone cheer and the scene was very lively.
At this time, a group of foreigners with bold and avant-garde styles came on stage to sing.
The lead singer has a big beard, a black crew cut, wears a white vest, and has a ring on his left arm.
Among the remaining three people, one had a big afro, which looked very exaggerated.
"Why is there a foreigner singing on stage? Is he also a newly signed artist of the company?"
Similar doubts arose in everyone's mind, and they immediately began to talk about it. Among them, there was a well-informed person who said, "I heard that the company has set up a branch in the British-American music industry and signed a lot of artists. This should be poached from other record companies."
"I heard that the higher-ups seem to take this very seriously, and they went through quite a bit of trouble for this..."
Everyone nodded in sudden realization and asked, "What's the name of this band?"
"Queen, translated as Queen."
After learning the name, Queen's performance officially began.
Although no one sang, the extremely touching melody and the orderly clapping sounds entered everyone's ears.
Listening to the melody, everyone couldn't help but start moving their bodies along, and some even began to clap in unison and loudly along with the band members.
In order to prevent language problems, Hutchison staff had already set up a translator on the stage to ensure that everyone did not understand the meaning of the lyrics.
After a while, the uniform clapping sounds became one and echoed through the sky.
Even the police officers on duty outside the ancestral hall began to follow the rhythm and clap their hands subconsciously after hearing the rhythm.
[Man, you are a loud kid]
[Playing around in the streets, hoping to become a big shot one day]
[You are so embarrassed]
[Extremely embarrassed]
[Kick the tin can around]
【We will, we will rock you......】
Although some people did not understand the lyrics, they subconsciously began to follow the unstoppable rhythm and kept twisting their bodies.
Listening to these lyrics, everyone who is already on the road of martial arts feels filled with emotion.
At this moment, Lin Zehao, the absolute protagonist of this ceremony, did not appear in this lively scene.
In the reception room.
The blinds were rolled up, blocking out the sunlight while also isolating the room from prying eyes.
Lin Zehao had changed into a black suit and was sitting behind his desk, half of him in the shadow and half in the sun.
In his arms was a completely black cat, except for the areas where its eyes were located, which were still white.
Judging from the length and shape of its tail, this is a cat with a unicorn tail.
Li Wenbin was sitting aside, holding a pile of documents in his hand, checking them one by one.
As for Ama and Luo Tianhong, one stood aside and the other stood at the door.
At this time, the door of the reception room was opened and the leader of the Northwest Gang, Yang Dengkui, walked into the room.
He had always wanted to meet Lin Zehao after he founded Hutchison Entertainment and made some hit movies.
Because Yang Dengkui also wanted to emulate Lin Zehao's successful path in Taiwan, and coupled with the fact that Wu Mengda owed him a loan shark before, he took advantage of this Hutchison Ceremony to learn from Wei Longhao.
There are many people like him who have various goals.
This is also the reason why Lin Zehao would take time out to deal with these matters.
After Yang Dengkui entered the room, he first looked around the surroundings calmly and found that although the furnishings in the house were simple, they were not outdated at all; although they were luxurious, they were not ostentatious at all.
Afterwards, Yang Dengkui turned his gaze to Lin Zehao. Seeing the other person's figure half bathed in the sun, he subconsciously felt safe.
It seems that with Weilonghao around, any problem can be easily solved.
The half hidden in the darkness is extremely deep, yet it exudes a power that cannot be ignored.
It was clearly an extremely handsome face, but at this moment it was divided into two expressions.
However, no matter which half of the face was covered, there was no sense of incongruity in the expression.
It's contradictory, but it seems to be the way it should be.
This discovery made Yang Dengkui surprised, but also a little nervous, and even a trace of uncontrollable fear in his heart.
You know, as the big brother of the Northwest Gang, Yang Dengkui is also a well-known figure in the underworld of Taiwan.
Moreover, the officialdom there is even darker than that of Hong Kong Island. It makes sure that no matter what certain groups do, they have the official background to back them up.
If you make it big enough, you can even run for legislative office and emerge from the shadows as an official with two mouths.
The Legislative Yuan members of Formosa are not like the elected members positions just introduced in Hong Kong. They are completely decorative positions and have no substantive role other than saying nice things.
The members of parliament from Taiwan not only have real power, but also have many unexpected benefits.
It is no exaggeration to say that this kind of environment is simply an ideal soil for the development of the community.
Lin Zehao glanced at Yang Dengkui without saying anything. Instead, he extended his right hand and motioned for him to sit down and talk.
"Thank you, Brother Hao."
Yang Dengkui thanked him very politely and kept himself very humble.
Lin Zehao stroked the cat's back and said in a magnetic voice, "I had originally planned to go to Taiwan before the New Year to pay a visit, but I didn't expect there were too many things to do and the people below couldn't do it, so I had to handle it myself, so it was delayed..."
"Finally, I still have to trouble you to come to Hong Kong Island in person. I am really sorry for the tiring journey..."
Yang Dengkui waved his hand quickly and said, "Brother Hao is too polite. Everyone in the martial arts world knows that you have a big business and a lot of things to deal with. I am very grateful that you can take the time to meet me."
"Besides, Hong Kong Island and Formosa are so close to each other. It only takes more than an hour by plane, and even if you take a boat, it only takes more than ten hours. It is not a tiring journey at all."
Although Yang Dengkui is already 42 years old this year, he is more than twice as old as Lin Zehao.
However, one’s status in the world is never determined by age.
You should call me Brother Hao, and you should still call me Brother Hao.
Whoever has the bigger fist and speaks louder speaks the truth.
In this regard, there is absolutely no comparison between Yang Dengkui's Northwest Gang and He Shenghe.
He was aware of this.
"I also want to thank you for giving me face for Wu Mengda's incident last time."
Lin Zehao said this and nodded slightly to Li Wenbin beside him.
Seeing this, Li Wenbin immediately understood and opened the drawer beside him.
