The Secretary for Justice asked directly with a hint of impatience: "Hong Kong Governor, just tell us what you want us to do. No, I can warn you not to try to knock down the Phantom!"
Seeing everyone else nodding, Patten frowned. He knew that Xiao Ran was powerful, but he didn't expect that even this group of people could be affected. After thinking about it, he thought that as long as he could do this, he
He was sure to get a commendation from above, and immediately smiled happily: "ATV is seeking a license for next year, we can find a reasonable reason not to issue it."
"This is impossible!" The person in charge of the Chief Secretary immediately stood up and glared at the damn Hong Kong governor with an angry face: "ATV meets the requirements in every aspect, and it has received the least number of complaints among Hong Kong TV stations.
, we have no reasonable reason to refuse to issue it!”
"You are the person in charge, you always have a way!" Patten shook his hand impatiently, and the person in charge of the Chief Secretary sat down and cursed in his stomach, so he didn't mention it. Patten thought about it for a moment, and looked at Law
The Chief Secretary smiled sinisterly and said: "Immediately draft an anti-monopoly law for the film industry. I will separate the exhibition industry from the distribution and production industries!"
The Secretary for Justice nodded silently. His predecessor was almost forced to step down because he interfered with Xiao Ran's career. If Xiao Ran hadn't let them go, he would have made a fool of himself. This time, the film industry's anti-monopoly
Fa has a reason. At least he is luckier than the Chief Secretary.
Patten turned his gaze to the face of the Secretary for Security with satisfaction. What followed was the biggest killer to disintegrate Xiao Ran's personal power: "I want you to cooperate with the Department of Justice's anti-monopoly law to take action against the gangs, and start the most dangerous battle in history."
A large-scale anti-gang operation will be carried out to dismantle Xiao Ran’s underworld forces."
Li Qingning almost jumped up. What the hell, can the Hong Kong gangsters sweep them all away? Going against Xiao Ran, the underworld godfather, is not a dead end. Patten smiled mysteriously: "When the time comes, there will be people in the gangs who will cooperate inside and outside, and then it will be fine
A comprehensive attack on Xiao Ran's arrogance!"
Damn your arrogance! Li Qingning wants to kill Patten. Xiao Ran treats people normally and is a good friend. In the past few years alone, he has donated hundreds of millions to the police to solve problems. But no matter what, this fact is not
The approach has changed, hasn't it?
Late at night, Wei Dongling is at home, or rather in the workroom. This workroom is very strict, and sometimes even his girlfriend who lives with him is not allowed in. Li Jiaxin asked the servant to come outside the workroom with a bowl of soup.
Looking at Wei Dongling with a smile, he said: "A Dong, you've got some soup. I really don't know what you're doing in there. Even I'm not allowed in!"
For several nights in a row, Wei Dongling worked here until one o'clock in the night before resting. This made Li Jiaxin extremely curious. Finally, this afternoon, not long after Wei Dongling left, she finally opened the door with the matching key.
Of course Li Jiaxin had been to this room before, but she usually only saw some ordinary documents and information, which was obviously not as mysterious as it was now. She curiously rummaged around the room for a while, and finally found a very tight safe.
She also had the key to the safe, but she didn't have the password.
After thinking for a long time, she finally thought of a number and immediately entered it. She heard a slight click and the safe door opened. Li Jiaxin suddenly felt happy, because the password was her birthday number.
There was nothing in it, just a large stack of documents. She put the documents on the table and began to browse. After flipping through them, she saw a folder called Politician Information. She opened it and took a look, and her face immediately changed.
The first one listed is the information about Hong Kong Governor Patten. In addition to introducing this guy's life, there is another information about what immoral and illegal things this guy has done.
Looking further down, the more I read, the more frightened I became. At the end, I was trembling all over and turning pale. These documents were very rich and involved so many things that Li Jiaxin couldn't even imagine where the information came from.
How much effort does it take to collect what you get?
Finally, she saw what Wei Dongling had been busy with these past few days. It was a plan, a very insidious plan. If it were really implemented, I'm afraid many people would be dragged down, and the British ruling
The party will definitely be in big trouble.
Just when she was trembling and almost falling, a pair of big hands supported her body that was stiff with fear. She was even more shocked and jumped up. Only then did she see Wei Dongling staring at her with an extremely serious expression.
Looking at her. The two looked at each other silently for a long time. Li Jiaxin finally couldn't help but apologize in a low voice: "I'm sorry..."
"Will you leak these things?" Wei Dongling scolded sternly. If possible, he would never treat Li Jiaxin like this. But these things are really important, some are provided by the National Security Bureau, and some are provided by Phantom
What I got through my own investigation were all the information I needed to access on the road to Phantom's development.
"Of course not!" Li Jiaxin trembled all over. She had never seen Wei Dongling's stern look, so she was naturally frightened: "Absolutely not..."
"Then it's okay! I believe you." Wei Dongling suddenly relaxed and smiled softly: "I didn't scare you just now, did I?" Li Jiaxin breathed a sigh of relief, but was held in Wei Dongling's arms. Thinking of the password just now, that
The feeling of being loved is even sweeter.
Guan Xin is finally gone! Liang Kun is finally in a happy mood now. Now that Guan Xin has left, he is the only person who controls the underworld in Hong Kong. Don’t ask him why he is suddenly keen on this matter now, because he discovered this
This kind of power to control everything is intoxicating and fascinating.
Because of Guan Xin's strong control, the underworld has been very obedient. Liang Kun couldn't help but smile proudly. As long as he can control the underworld, he will have the qualifications to talk to the Hong Kong governor on an equal footing in the future. The huge profits of the underworld every year will also make him quickly
Having a lot of wealth is better than working with Xiao Ran.
Several right-hand assistants looked at the elder brother and smiled knowingly. Liang Kun thought for a moment and quickly came up with a plan to control the underworld: "Ah Xiong, Ah Chong, you each lead a team of people to grasp the whereabouts of Guan Xin's spies.
, as soon as the time comes to take action, you will catch them all, and someone will cooperate with you then. However, it is better not to kill if you can. If you can recruit those retired soldiers, it will definitely be a good thing."
"I will have a chat with several major social groups in the next few days..." Liang Kun was so proud that he almost laughed out loud, and told a smart young man: "You will be responsible for contacting them then.
Don't let anything slip up."
After giving some more orders, he saw that all his subordinates had left. Liang Kun finally couldn't help but laughed wildly and said: "Mr. Xiao, I'm sorry, I really failed to live up to your hard work. However, I am also a human being, and I also have hopes.
You must understand me!"
If Xiao Ran is in Hong Kong, or just goes to the United States for a few days, then Liang Kun knows that he will never have the courage to betray, and the major associations will never have the courage to betray. Even if Guan Xin, who is known as cold-blooded, does not leave, they will definitely not dare.
However, Xiao Ran went to the United States and would stay for at least a month or two. Guan Xin also went to the United Kingdom and explained a lot of things before leaving. At a glance, he knew that he would definitely be going for a long time. In this way
As soon as he came, Liang Kun knew that his opportunity had come, a golden opportunity that was once in a lifetime.
Xiao Ran won't mention it anymore. He was the one who conquered the major societies back then. Guan Xin, who succeeded Xiao Ran, made the major societies even more frightened. Liang Kun even remembered very clearly that one time the boss of a society died and two big players were fighting over each other.
Guan Xin ordered them to stop, but the two idiots showed no signs of stopping.
The next day, the two big heads turned into two floating corpses and became a murder case investigated by the police, and the hands of the two gangs were broken that night. Guan Xin's method was not cruel, but it was definitely very cold. This was not the only time.
, after it happened many times, this made all the major societies cautious not to offend him again.
In many cases, major societies even missed the period when they were ruled by Xiao Ran. At that time, Xiao Ran was very tolerant to them, and there was almost no such means as Guan Xin, which can be called indulgence. Therefore, Guan Xin is definitely the leader of major societies.
The nightmare, now that Guan Xin has left, what is Liang Kun’s chance!
Why did Liang Kun betray Xiao Ran? When he discovered his desire for power, he once asked himself. The answer he gave himself was very simple. After these years of manipulating the underworld, he had tasted the joy of power, especially in major associations.
The feeling of humbly asking Guan Xin to intercede because he offended him. He wanted to personally control the feeling of having the power of life and death, just like Xiao Ran's desire to control.
No matter whether it is despicable or shameless, Liang Kun told himself that at least he was very grateful to Xiao Ran. Without Mr. Xiao, he would definitely not be able to obtain the status he has today. In fact, he was not worried about Xiao Ran losing his confidence in the underworld.
What can be done after controlling him? Without the underworld, Xiao Ran only has the security company to use.
At that time, he had already controlled the entire underworld, and there were many people protecting him. There was no need to be afraid at all. Although there was still a lot of risk, he thought it was definitely worth it, for power, which is something that people can't extricate themselves from.
Moreover, he has a very powerful ally.
Sitting on the leather chair, he shook gently and said fiercely: "Mr. Xiao, I'm sorry. You have made a lot of money and don't care about the underworld anymore. Why don't you let your brothers take over?"
In a happy mood, he sang proudly: "The country is like that painting..."
Guan Xin's stay in the UK went quite smoothly. In fact, he should not have done this. However, he always felt that there was something wrong with Liang Kun. He thought that after he left, if there was any problem with Liang Kun, it would definitely be exposed. Moreover,
, there are really some things in Britain that cannot be separated from him, but he is basically only responsible for the other side. In terms of public relations, the person appointed by Wei Dongling is in charge.
In the past few days, they have met with many people and have achieved considerable results. Some green organizations and opposition parties are eager to embrace these brothers from Hong Kong, but Guan Xin is not used to it. In this regard,
He admired his partners very much. He talked nonsense to others, and it was absolutely amazing to deal with these politicians.
On September 1, mainland China's final amendments to film and culture finally came into effect. Phantom, the three major giants, and Metropolis all obtained distribution licenses. On the same day, the film company announced that it would invest HK$5 billion in mainland China to acquire
Renovate or build 500 theaters, and four other companies have also announced that they will invest in the construction of 150 theaters in mainland China.
At the same time, the real estate company under Dynamic announced that it will invest an additional 10 billion in real estate. Of course, this move is aimed at cooperating with movie theaters. As we all know, modern theaters are basically located in large shopping malls. The two promote each other and are mutually beneficial.
Of course, the trading and sales company that also belongs to Dynamic also announced that it will increase trade sales to the mainland. If you don't know how to seize the opportunity to occupy the market, you would be really stupid. And such a large market is obviously not something that Dynamic can capture.
, so Cheung Kong also announced some investments and sales, indirectly cooperating with investment in theaters and gaining market share for itself.
On the same day, in the United States, Blockbuster accepted the acquisition and only needed to wait for official approval. The next afternoon, Xiao Ran was giving face-to-face instructions to the two executives responsible for the release of "Jurassic Park". Among them
One is from Phantom Publishing, and the other is of course local.
While they were talking, Huang Ling rushed into the office and said to Xiao Ran whether she was happy or worried: "Mr. Xiao, the United States officially approved this acquisition, and we succeeded! But..."
Xiao Ran almost stopped laughing. What he was most worried about was the official U.S. catastrophe. Now it seemed that Ge Wenqiu's efforts and activities were not in vain, and all the previous arrangements were worthwhile. He suppressed his joy and asked: "But what?"
"But..." Huang Ling hesitated, wondering whether she should disturb Xiao Ran's interest at this time: "But Warner, Disney, and Sony have already announced through the Actors Guild, Directors Guild and other associations that they refuse to accept Universal's offer.
Drama! Moreover, it is said that they are planning a demonstration."
Demonstration? This is a new thing! Xiao Ran couldn't help but be happy. After waving his hand to signal Huang Ling and others to leave, he quietly considered how to deal with the whole thing. In fact, actors, directors and other filmmakers have banned
, Xiao Ran doesn't care, the key lies in how to resolve the parade move...
After handling some necessary matters, Xiao Ran relaxed completely. He had been very nervous these past few days. If an empire as huge as Phantom was to be short of funds, the future would be unimaginable.
If the acquisition of Blockbuster is successful, it will be able to provide huge cash flow. In this way, Universal's finances will not need the support of the head office in the short term. In this way, Phantom's financial problems will naturally be alleviated. In fact,
As long as you calm down, Phantom's funds will be fine.
