Hong Kong Variety Show: The Development Notes of a Boss

Chapter 249 Da Fei's Dilemma

Ding Yao needs someone who is familiar with Macau and has experience in running casinos here.

Da Fei completely meets Ding Yao's requirements. Moreover, Da Fei is the leader of Hongxing. Not only does he have a certain amount of power, he is also familiar with the internal affairs of Hongxing.

If Ding Yao could win over Da Fei and make him betray Hong Xing, then not only would he have a capable helper, but he would also be able to strike back at Hong Xing to a certain extent, and Ding Yao could also use this opportunity to greatly increase his reputation in the Sanlian Gang.

Ding Yao is a woman who is very confident in her beauty. She feels that as long as she takes action, it will be difficult for any man to escape from her grasp.

Of course, Da Fei has been in the business for so many years and has seen all kinds of beautiful women. No matter how beautiful Ding Yao is, Da Fei would never betray Hongxing for her.

In addition to using herself as a bargaining chip, Ding Yao also promised that as long as Da Fei joined the San Lian Gang, she would let Da Fei be the leader of the San Lian Gang's Viper Hall and let Da Fei be responsible for all of the San Lian Gang's business in Australia Island.

He also promised Dafei that if she could secure the position of the leader of the Sanlian Gang, Dafei would be second to none in the Sanlian Gang. He could support Dafei to become the deputy leader of the Sanlian Gang, and it was possible that he would become the leader of the Sanlian Gang in the future.

Although Da Fei is the leader of Hongxing, he feels a little uncomfortable in this position. His Kwun Tong branch is at the bottom of the thirteen main branches.

If they wanted to expand their territory, the area around Lantian would be full of Heliansheng's troops. No matter who they touched, they would probably stir up a hornet's nest. They didn't step on Dafei, allowing him to gain a foothold in Lantian. This was already a generous gesture from them to let him go.

So in Kwun Tong, Da Fei has always been keeping a low profile.

He wanted to make money, but Lantian wasn't a prosperous place, so there wasn't much to be made. He wanted to join others in making a small fortune, but others were unwilling to take him along.

At the beginning, Da Fei was good friends with Lu Yongqiang, and he thought that whenever Lu Yongqiang ate meat, he, Da Fei, could drink some of the broth.

But he didn't expect that Lu Yongqiang didn't want to play with him at all.

In fact, it’s not that Lu Yongqiang is stingy and doesn’t want to play with Dafei, but that Dafei himself has no capital, is unwilling to take risks, and is unwilling to be humble to others.

At that time, Smiling Tiger caused trouble and attacked Lu Yongqiang's food company.

At that time, Lu Yongqiang was just a red stick in the Tuen Mun gang, with only two or three thousand men under his command, which could be considered weak. At that time, Lu Yongqiang approached Da Fei and wanted to borrow people from Da Fei.

He also promised Dafei that as long as Dafei agreed to lend people to him, he would pay Dafei, and after the crisis was over, they could do business together.

However, Dafei felt that Lu Yongqiang was no match for the Smiling Tiger, so he did not agree to lend the person and instead advised Lu Yongqiang to keep quiet.

Later, Lu Yongqiang solved the problem of Smiling Tiger on his own and also got 80% of the shares of the instant noodle factory.

Lu Yongqiang gave Dafei another opportunity at that time, which was to let Dafei invest in the instant noodle factory.

At that time, Camel held 20% of the shares of the instant noodle factory. Lu Yongqiang alone was not sure that he could wipe out Camel.

He thought of letting Dafei invest in the instant noodle factory. At that time, Dafei was Jiang Tiansheng's man. As long as Dafei was willing, he could ask Jiang Tiansheng for help and ask Jiang Tiansheng to help him get the shares of the instant noodle factory from Luotuo.

But Dafei still didn't agree at that time.

Firstly, he felt that the instant noodle factory was not making money, and investing in the instant noodle factory might not necessarily make money.

Secondly, he felt that Lu Yongqiang could not withstand Dongxing's counterattack and was unwilling to cause trouble for himself.

Dafei was unwilling to invest in the instant noodle factory, so Lu Yongqiang had no choice but to give Luotuo a discount and give up part of the shares of the instant noodle factory to Luotuo.

Afterwards, Lu Yongqiang introduced an instant noodle production line and started the instant noodle business. During those months, the instant noodle factory made a lot of money, with profits of more than 10 million yuan each month.

Da Fei is also interesting. Seeing that Lu Yongqiang has dealt with Luotuo and the factory is still making so much money, he actually has the audacity to talk to Lu Yongqiang about buying shares.

Lu Yongqiang is not doing charity work. It is obviously a profitable business, so naturally he is unwilling to let Dafei have a share.

When the snack street was first being built, Lu Yongqiang intended to win over Dafei and took the initiative to propose a partnership with Dafei to build a snack street in Lantian.

Unexpectedly, after listening to Lu Yongqiang's plan, Dafei felt that there was no need to cooperate with Lu Yongqiang in the snack street business, which was both profitable and simple, and he could make more money by eating alone.

Afterwards, Dafei followed suit and opened a snack street in Lantian. However, some businesses seemed simple, but in fact, there were many tricks involved and it was not as easy as imagined.

For example, for the various ingredients in the snack street, Dafei finds someone to purchase them, while Lu Yongqiang gets them from food companies, so the purchase cost is naturally much lower.

Lu Yongqiang has a dedicated team of chefs who control the flavors of various snacks, so the food produced at the snack stall may not be amazing in taste, but it will definitely not be too bad.

But Dafei doesn't have a team of chefs to control the taste. Some of the food made at his snack stall tastes good, but some is hard to swallow.

The snack street Da Fei had created failed within three months. Not only did he not make any money, he actually lost a lot overall.

To be honest, Lu Yongqiang did give Dafei a chance, but Dafei himself failed to seize it.

Jiang Tiansheng also gave Dafei a chance.

At the beginning, Da Fei had a conflict with Fatty Lai, so he had to take his people from North Point to Lantian.

At that time, Jiang Tiansheng asked Da Fei to transfer to Liang Ma's company, but Da Fei was unwilling and insisted on quitting Hongxing and going it alone.

At that time, the entire Kwun Tong District could barely be considered as the sphere of influence of He Liansheng. Dafei went to Lam Tin to make a living, but He Liansheng naturally did not agree.

It was Jiang Tiansheng who found Deng Bo of Heliansheng, and only then did Dafei gain a foothold in Lantian.

Later, Dafei gained a foothold in Lantian and had one or two thousand men under his command.

Jiang Tiansheng thought Dafei was capable and admired him very much, so he asked Dafei to become his disciple and promised Dafei that if he did, he would give Dafei several nightclubs and let Dafei be in charge of looking after them.

However, Dafei was unwilling to be subservient to others and never agreed to Jiang Tiansheng's request. Later, he became a disciple of an incompetent elder in the society and established the Lantian branch, becoming the leader of the branch.

Da Fei had received a lot of favors from Jiang Tiansheng in the past, but in the end he was unwilling to be used by Jiang Tiansheng.

Jiang Tiansheng was a narrow-minded person, so he was naturally unhappy. After the Lantian branch was established, Jiang Tiansheng no longer took care of Dafei as before.

Later, when Big Brother B got into trouble, Jiang Tiansheng wanted to support Chen Haonan to become the leader of Causeway Bay, but Da Fei insisted on standing up to compete.

At that time, Lu Yongqiang, Dao Zaiqing, Zhang Shun, and Greyhound had all given up, but Dafei was still insisting, which made Jiang Tiansheng even more dissatisfied.

In fact, Da Fei was determined to fight for the Causeway Bay site at that time, but he had no choice.

Before the Lantian branch was established, although Da Fei had one or two thousand subordinates, he belonged to the Blue Lantern of Hongxing at that time and could relocate his subordinates separately.

Arrange people to help this big boss watch the field, or arrange people to help that big boss transport goods. When someone wants to show off the horses and there are not enough people, Dafei can also bring people to make up the number.

However, after becoming the boss of a branch gang, he could no longer do many of these ways to make money. After all, the situation was different now, and doing these trivial things would be a loss of face and shame.

The Blue Lantern Society didn't have to pay any fees to the society, meaning that Da Fei didn't have to pay any of the protection money he collected from Lantian to the society. Of course, if something happened in Lantian, the society wouldn't stand up for you.

In Hung Hing, the main gang pays 30% every month, and the branch gang pays 50%. After Da Fei established the Lantian branch, he had to pay 50% of the protection fees he received from Lantian to the gang.

In order to support his subordinates, Dafei invested in many businesses at that time. He opened a massage parlor, a nightclub, and several game halls in Lantian.

He originally wanted to rely on these industries to support his subordinates, but things went against his wishes. The businesses of these places invested by Da Fei were not doing well, and some of them were even making losses.

Da Fei was forced into a corner, so he wanted to leave Kwun Tong and go to Causeway Bay to make a living. However, the final result was not what he wanted, but Greyhound took advantage of him.

But it's okay. Although they didn't get the territory in Causeway Bay, Liang Kun decided to let Da Fei be the boss. This solved Da Fei's urgent need. After all, as the boss, he has to pay 20% less in membership fees every month.

After Jiang Tiansheng came to power again, Dafei initially planned to join Jiang Tiansheng.

At that time, Da Fei was already the leader of the Kwun Tong District Gang. Although Jiang Tiansheng was dissatisfied with Da Fei, he would not refuse Da Fei's request to join him.

Jiang Tiansheng personally owns two nightclubs, a nightclub in Lan Kwai Fong and a bar in Causeway Bay.

Back then, these two nightclubs were always run by Big Boss B on behalf of Jiang Tiansheng.

Boss B doesn't know how to run a business. When the two nightclubs fell into his hands, he did make some money, but that was not because of Boss B's ability. It was just that the two nightclubs had a good geographical location and took advantage of the location.

At the beginning, Jiang Tiansheng wanted to accept Dafei as his disciple because he thought Dafei was capable and wanted Dafei to manage the two places for him, but Dafei did not agree at that time.

Da Fei was living a tight life, and the condition for him to join Jiang Tiansheng was that Jiang Tiansheng would help him and let him run the two nightclubs under his name so that he could make some money.

At first, Jiang Tiansheng agreed to Dafei, but unfortunately, Chui Shuiji returned to Gangcheng. In order to make up for Chui Shuiji's loss, Jiang Tiansheng directly handed over the nightclub to Chui Shuiji.

Da Fei didn't get any benefit, so naturally he was unwilling to surrender to Jiang Tiansheng. But at this time, Xiyan gave him a way to make money.

Xiyan's business is very diverse, including nightclubs, boxing gyms, casinos, massage parlors, and brothels. These gray industries have also led to Xiyan's decline.

In addition to these gray industries, Xiyan also invested in many formal factories, including soda factories, clothing factories, and toy factories.

At that time, Xiyan was preparing to return to the north to invest in an electronics industrial park. He heard that it would require an investment of several hundred million yuan, but he did not have enough funds, so he sold a lot of industries.

The way Xiyan made money for Dafei was by selling a toy factory to him.

That toy factory is considered a high-quality industry, with a profit of two to three million per month.

It was also because of this toy factory that Dafei formed an alliance with Lu Yongqiang, Xiyan, Ma Wangjian and others.
