Chapter 417: Come on vacation?
Under this weird atmosphere, the entire underworld of Taiwan is in a state of confusion, with everyone harboring their own ulterior motives.
Of course, ordinary people have no idea why. They just know that public security has improved and the government has finally done something, that's all.
Now the whole underworld of Taiwan seems to be calm and peaceful, but in fact everyone is waiting for the Yiqing project to pass.
As soon as the limelight passes, the underworld in Taiwan will only become more chaotic than before; it won’t be an exaggeration to call it a big melee!
Hong Kong Island, Macau and Formosa Boulevard have always been inseparable, so such big news naturally cannot be concealed, not to mention that the government has no intention of hiding it.
The underworld in Macau and Hong Kong was also shocked by the news, causing waves and unrest.
In this strange atmosphere, the Bamboo Union also held a meeting.
The grand hall is very large and luxuriously decorated.
However, compared with before the incident, it is less popular.
Even those young men who were still standing guard at their posts were listless, with an air of passive resistance all over their bodies.
The middle-level members of the gang wanted to say something, but when they thought about the current situation, they could only sigh and say no more.
Even they are worrying about their future, so why should we blame these low-class people?
The huge conference room was always packed with people during meetings in the past.
But now, more than half of it is left vacant.
Especially among the top executives, only about one in ten survives.
After a dozen or so middle-level managers arrived, the number of people stopped increasing. After waiting for about half an hour and making sure that no one had entered, the meeting was announced to start.
Wang Yu was not affected by the incident because he was favored by Lin Zehao and was the former spokesperson for the Bamboo Union and Hutchison Trading. He also attended the meeting.
He looked around and saw that the dozen or so people present were almost all strangers, and it seemed that their previous gang status was not very high.
Come to think of it, if he had a high status, he would probably be in jail now.
"Everyone is aware of the changes in the gang now. Not only is the gang leader out of reach, but all the high-ranking people who have gone in have no news at all. They are not even given the opportunity to communicate."
“As for those senior executives who were lucky enough to escape, they all had stress reactions and fled, which was no different from losing contact.”
"Now we call it a meeting, but in fact we are gathering everyone to discuss what we should do next."
The topic that determines the future path of the Bamboo Union is too big for them to handle, nor do they want to handle it.
Let alone them, there would be no better solution to this mess even if Chen Qili came out.
In the face of a determined government, a simple gang like the Bamboo Union actually has no room to fight back.
For the above, simply being evil is not scary. Even if the 49ers are powerful and have many people, can they fight against the army?
Only groups like Hutchison, which gradually become legalized, pay taxes legally, have influence in all walks of life, and own many businesses, are what the above authorities are afraid of.
Why is it that when Lin Zehao has sued the Hong Kong government in a high-profile manner, the other party has been hesitant to turn against him and is only fighting back according to the rules of the game?
The reasons involve many aspects, which are both complicated and simple.
To put it simply, if anyone dares to touch Lin Zehao, then nearly 50,000 regular employees in his industries will be unemployed. Who will take the blame?
Governor of Hong Kong?
Does he dare to recite it?
Fifty thousand people means fifty thousand families. Even if every family consists of the minimum of three people, the actual number of people affected must be multiplied by at least three!
This concerns the livelihoods of at least 150,000 citizens. Who dares to take this move?
For these foreigners in Hong Kong Island, being an official is just for gilding themselves and making money. There is no need to make the situation too ugly. Naturally, they are unwilling to do something that will result in everyone's loss.
All of Lin Zehao's incomprehensible plans were for this day.
This is also the reason why he can still stand firm after breaking up with the Hong Kong government.
Wang Yu stood up at the right time, took out a box of Sanwu cigarettes and distributed them around.
When everyone took the cigarette and looked at it, someone familiar with him asked in surprise, "Sanwu, you've become rich, and now you smoke such good cigarettes?"
"Even though the gang has gone through such a mess, you are getting better and better. This world is really hard to understand..."
Hearing this, Wang Yu quickly waved his hands and said, "Don't talk nonsense, I am also working for the gang, but everyone has their own job, the job is different, the risk is different, and the money earned is naturally different."
After hearing his explanation, those who were originally feeling jealous and unbalanced felt much better.
"But what exactly do you do? How can you make so much money?"
After everyone lit up their cigarettes, they sighed that they were expensive but tasted good, and then started chatting away. There was no serious meeting atmosphere at all.
To be precise, it would be more accurate to call it a chat rather than a meeting.
"You are also familiar with the rules of the gang. I certainly cannot tell you the specific tasks, but I can say that I am able to achieve what I have today thanks to Brother He Jihao."
Wang Yu understood the importance of gratitude, especially when the Bamboo Union was in complete chaos, it was very necessary for him to cling to Lin Zehao's thigh.
"Brother Hao, you really call me that as you should. I would have thought you were from Hutchison Whampoa!"
As the saying goes, people worry not about scarcity but inequality, not about poverty but insecurity.
Seeing that Wang Yu, whose status and position were not as good as theirs before, has now achieved such success, they can't help but feel jealous, and their words also reveal a sour grapes taste.
As for the people around him giving him glances, he simply chose to ignore them.
Wang Yu could naturally hear all this, and he did not refute it. He just stood up, straightened his clothes, and said, "Okay, you guys chat, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
There's no point in talking if you don't agree. What's more, people are in a state of unrest and all kinds of thoughts are coming to their mind. He is too lazy to talk nonsense anymore.
"Tsk, I was right, wasn't I?"
"Now that some people see that the gang is in trouble, I don't know what they are thinking. Maybe they are trying to have the best of both worlds!"
As soon as these words came out, Wang Yu immediately stopped and turned around to ask, "What did you say? Can you say it again?"
"I'm telling you, no matter what you say to me, it doesn't matter. But if you say a word against Brother Hao, don't blame me for being rude to you!"
Wang Yu thought very clearly. Now the top leaders of the Bamboo Union Gang have been basically wiped out. The core figures headed by Chen Qili are all sentenced to life imprisonment. Not to mention whether they can be released in their lifetime, it is absolutely impossible to do so in a short period of time.
Nowadays, things are developing at a rapid pace and are changing drastically every day. Even if you are locked up for three to five years and then come out, what can be changed? The cucumber food will be cold!
Moreover, will those other associations that are eyeing the situation covetously allow the Bamboo Union to survive for three to five years?
Once the limelight is over, those gangs will immediately transform into the most ferocious dogs and divide up the Bamboo Union completely! Under this premise, if Wang Yu wants to live well and maintain a high quality of life, he can only cling to Lin Zehao's thigh!
"Oh! You can't hold your temper anymore? Your fox tail is showing, right?"
"Maybe you have already secretly joined Hutchison!"
"I……"
Before he could finish, Wang Yu took a few quick steps and kicked him!
As someone who became famous through martial arts movies, there is no need to say much about his skills, not to mention that he had worked as a gangster for a long time before.
This kick came so fast and hard, with enough force to hit the opponent directly in the chest!
He was caught off guard and flew out in an instant. After falling heavily to the ground, he felt dizzy, his chest was tight and he was short of breath. He couldn't utter a word.
"Let me tell you something. Hutchison's reputation is not something you can comment on!"
"You are not even qualified to mention Brother Hao's name!"
Wang Yuren had already walked far away, but his voice still seemed to echo in everyone's ears.
As for the person who was knocked down by him, he was lying on the ground groaning in pain.
At this time, the convener of the meeting said quietly: "Alas, you are so smart that you have discovered the problems that no one else has discovered."
"My original intention was to use Wang Yu's connection to get in touch with Wei Longhao, so that at least I can have some protection during this period of time before the gang leader and his men come back."
"It was originally a good thing that benefited everyone, but now you have ruined it by yourself..."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes changed immediately, and it was obvious that they had thought through the interests involved.
As the saying goes, people worry about scarcity but inequality, not poverty but instability.
Some people have one idea as bystanders, but when their own interests are involved, they will have another idea.
The so-called meeting ended in a bad mood, and everyone walked out of the meeting room with their own thoughts.
Now, anyone with a bit of common sense understands that the Bamboo Union is not a place to stay for long, and they are all worried about their own future.
When Wang Yu came out of the hall, he saw several groups of people watching the movements of the Bamboo Union Gang.
It seems that some gangs can no longer suppress their inner restlessness.
This piece of fat meat is right in front of you, and everyone wants to take the biggest and fattest first bite!
He pretended not to see it and drove away directly. He drove around the road several times very cautiously before heading to Cuihu Villa.
Thirty minutes later, Wang Yu saw Lin Zehao talking on the phone in the living room of the villa.
A Mai was no longer surprised by this, and even wanted to explain to the curious Wang Yu, "Don't be surprised, Brother Hao's life has always been like this. The society and the company have too many things to deal with every day. Many times, the subordinates can't make decisions, so Brother Hao has to make the final decision."
Wang Yu nodded to show his understanding, and whispered in admiration: "Brother Hao is really different from the ones I know..."
After the two chatted for a few sentences, Lin Zehao finally put down the phone. Taking advantage of this gap, A Mai brought Wang Yu over.
"Brother Hao." Wang Yu greeted him very respectfully, and it was obvious that he put his subordinate in the right position.
"Ayu, no need to make a typo - you're welcome, take a seat."
"You must be aware that Taiwan's underworld is going crazy recently. Hong Kong Island has also been affected. Many people are ready to make a move. There are too many things to deal with. It's not enough to call the two big brothers every day."
Lin Zehao was indeed a little tired. He leaned back on the sofa, pinched his brows, pointed at the table and said, "If you want to smoke, get one yourself."
Wang Yu was very tactful. The boss didn’t even light a cigarette, so how could he dare to smoke first?
After taking out a cigarette and lighting it for Lin Zehao, he started smoking right after him.
"call……"
After exhaling a puff of smoke, Lin Zehao felt full of energy, and all his previous fatigue was swept away.
His physical fitness is already much better than that of ordinary people, and now with the addition of nicotine, it will naturally produce a one plus one equals two effect.
"Ayu, tell me, what do you want from me?"
Wang Yu chuckled, touched his head and said, "Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from Brother Hao, even if he is a master of calculations, it is not an exaggeration."
Lin Zehao laughed and joked, "Why, have you also learned to flatter?"
Wang Yu laughed a few times and immediately said seriously: "Brother Hao, the people of the Bamboo Union are now making moves. It seems that everyone is trying to find a way to escape from this sinking ship."
"In just one afternoon, I received no less than five calls, most of which asked me if I had any connections and wanted to show my loyalty to you, Brother Hao."
Those who cannot see through the essence are still watching, while smart people have already taken action.
"A certificate of nomination?"
"I want Luo Fuzhu's head. Can they do it?"
Lin Zehao sneered, straightened up and left the back of the sofa.
"Hutchison is not a sex club. We accept all kinds of people. If you want to work for me, you have to consider your own abilities."
Then, he changed the subject and said, "However, I am somewhat interested in the Bamboo Union. If they can turn from evil to good and return to the right path, I am not against recruiting them. After all, Hutchison is so big that they can always find a place to shine."
"What do you think, Ayu?"
Wang Yu's brain was already working at full speed, so he naturally understood the deep meaning of the words and said immediately: "Brother Hao, I am willing to be the pioneer of Hutchison and gather those who are willing to abandon darkness and join the light. I will definitely not let you down!"
He was keenly aware that the opportunity to join Hutchison was right in front of him, and he must seize it firmly!
Otherwise, he would have no confidence in escaping unscathed from the ensuing chaos in Taiwan's underworld.
Lin Zehao nodded, shook the ashes into the ashtray, took out a list from the table, threw it in front of Wang Yu, and said, "If you can win over the people on this list, you can win them over, as long as they don't clearly express resistance. If you really can't win them over, you write them down and tell me the list, and someone will naturally deal with it."
"In short, I only have one request, which is to unite the existing members of the Bamboo Union into one team and ensure that they will not be defeated by other gangs in the first place. All you need to do is wait for my notification and merge them into Hutchison Whampoa."
"It's simple and clear. Is that ok with you?"
Lin Zehao is waiting for the "One Clearance Project". Do you really think that he transferred 15,000 "Four-Nines" from Hong Kong Island just to come to Taiwan for a vacation?
