Chapter 239: Take action on Big D!
Chapter 239: Take action on Big D!
In a hidden abandoned warehouse on Hong Kong Island, dim lights flicker in the dust and the atmosphere is as tense as a taut bowstring.
Gao Qiqiang came on behalf of Qi Tongwei to start crucial negotiations with Jimmy, but from the very beginning, there was a strong sense of distrust between the two sides.
Jimmy's eyes were filled with vigilance and disdain, and he was the first to attack: "Who are you? What right do you have to interfere in the power struggle in Hong Kong Island? Do you know that the Zhao family has a close relationship with the Governor of Hong Kong and the commander of the garrison? In Hong Kong Island, their power is intertwined and intertwined. Do you think you can easily shake it?"
He crossed his arms over his chest and tilted his head slightly, as if looking down at Gao Qiqiang and Fang Xinwu, trying to scare them away with the powerful background of the Zhao family.
Fang Xinwu frowned when he heard this and was about to explain when Gao Qiqiang gently pulled his arm.
Gao Qiqiang shook his head slightly, indicating that he didn't need to say more. Then he looked at Jimmy with a firm gaze and said calmly, "Jimmy, there's no need to explain too much. You just need to think carefully about our proposal. You should know in your heart that since we dare to stand here today, we are definitely not unprepared."
His voice was steady and powerful, and every word was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples in this silent warehouse.
Jimmy sneered, "Humph, consider? Why should I consider your inexplicable cooperation? I have my own foothold and my own business in Liansheng. I don't need you to dictate my decisions."
Gao Qiqiang took a small step forward, his eyes flashing with a sharpness: "Jimmy, don't deceive yourself. Are your days with Liansheng really so peaceful? Do you think you can always stay out of trouble and stay away from the vortex of gang fighting? Doesn't your seemingly peaceful business now have potential crises?"
Jimmy's heart sank. He knew very well that although he tried hard to keep a low profile in He Liansheng, he still often faced various internal conflicts and external pressures.
Although his pornography industry is temporarily stable, it may be shattered at any time due to power changes within the gang or the intervention of external forces.
However, he remained firm: "So what? This is my own business, I will solve it myself, you don't need to worry about it."
Gao Qiqiang sighed slightly, as if he felt sorry for Jimmy's stubbornness: "You are wrong. Without our help, you can't really get rid of the predicament at hand. Moreover, I might as well tell you that if you refuse to cooperate today, we have enough means to make you withdraw from this circle and leave Hong Kong Island first."
His tone became tougher and his eyes revealed unquestionable determination.
Jiminzi's eyes widened immediately and he shouted angrily, "Are you threatening me? Do you think I, Jiminzi, was brought up by fear?"
His body trembled slightly and his hands clenched unconsciously, as if he was ready to fight Gao Qiqiang and others at any time.
Gao Qiqiang did not back down. Facing Jimmy's angry gaze, he responded coldly: "It's a threat. What you think is your business, but what we do is our decision. Do you think you still have many choices? The situation in Hong Kong Island is changing rapidly. If you continue to be stubborn, you will only be drowned by the tide of the times."
Although Jimmy was angry, he had to admit that Gao Qiqiang's words hit him sorely.
He knew very well that his power was limited in this complicated world.
If Gao Qiqiang and others really have powerful forces behind them, it would not be difficult to deal with them.
Various thoughts flashed through his mind quickly as he thought about how to respond.
"What exactly do you want me to do?" Jimmy asked through gritted teeth, suppressing his anger.
Seeing that Jimmy's attitude had softened, Gao Qiqiang softened his tone a little: "Our goal is very clear, which is to rectify the gang forces in Hong Kong Island. You are a smart person and you should know that this is the general trend. By cooperating with us, you can not only protect yourself, but also occupy a place in the new situation in the future. We will help you get rid of those unnecessary disputes with Liansheng, so that you can operate your own business legally and get on the right track."
Jimmy fell silent, weighing the pros and cons.
On the one hand, he was angry and dissatisfied with the threats posed by Gao Qiqiang and others.
On the other hand, he also knew that his current situation was indeed difficult, and cooperation might be a way out. But he was also worried that this was a trap, and once he stepped into it, he would lose his freedom and control over his own destiny.
"How can I believe that you will keep your promise? What specific plans do you have?" Jimmy raised his head, still with doubt in his eyes.
Gao Qiqiang smiled slightly: "We naturally have a detailed plan, but I won't reveal too much until you have made up your mind. You just need to know that we really want to change the status quo of Hong Kong Island, and you are a key part of our plan. You can think about it carefully, and we will give you three days. After three days, if you still refuse, don't blame us for being rude."
After that, Gao Qiqiang and Fang Xinwu turned around and were about to leave, their backs revealing an unquestionable determination. Their steps were steady, and every step seemed to step on the tip of Jimizi's heart, making the already heavy atmosphere even more depressing. But no one expected that the dramatic turn would come so quickly, and even before three minutes had passed, Jimizi called them loudly.
Jimmy took a deep breath, with a look of determination and earnestness in his eyes: "I agree to cooperate. I have been struggling in this underworld for many years, and all I want is a chance to clear my name, protect myself and my family, so that they no longer have to live in fear and can live an upright life." He lowered his head slightly, as if he was saying goodbye to his past gangster career, and as if he was expressing his determination to Gao Qiqiang and Fang Xinwu.
Fang Xinwu looked at Jimmy, feeling a little relieved, and nodded slightly. Gao Qiqiang just paused for a moment, and did not respond immediately. His eyes were still deep and unpredictable, as if he was thinking about a more far-reaching plan.
Jimmy seemed eager to make his position clear, and continued: "I am truly patriotic and have always hoped to do something for the country. As long as it can be done on the right track, I am willing to obey orders without any hesitation." He straightened his back, with a sincere look in his eyes, trying to convince Gao Qiqiang and Fang Xinwu that his change was not a momentary impulse.
However, although Jimmy was willing to cooperate, he was confused about how to act. He was like a ship sailing in the dark, suddenly seeing the light of a lighthouse, but not knowing how to sail towards it.
Gao Qiqiang seemed to have expected this. He turned around, looked at Jimmy calmly, and said slowly: "Since you have decided to cooperate, I will show you a clear way. You go and encourage Big D to rekindle his ambition for the position of leader of He Liansheng, compete with Ah Le for power again, take back the dragon head stick that symbolizes the status of gang leader, establish a new He Liansheng, and compete with Ah Le." His voice was low and powerful, and every word was like a chess piece, falling precisely on the chessboard of this power game.
Jimi Zai's mind moved, and he instantly understood Gao Qiqiang's intention. This was to disintegrate He Liansheng from within, using the existing contradictions within the gang to provoke fighting, let them kill each other, and thus weaken the largest evil force in Hong Kong Island. "Mr. Gao, your move is really great. I understand, I will do it as soon as possible." Jimi Zai's eyes were full of admiration, he knew very well that if this plan could be successfully implemented, it would have a huge impact on the gang structure of Hong Kong Island.
After leaving the negotiation site, Fang Xinwu's admiration for Gao Qiqiang was beyond words. He couldn't help but say, "Brother Qiang, your series of actions today really opened my eyes. Especially your attitude towards Jimmy, which was tough but strategic."
Gao Qiqiang raised his head slightly, looking into the distance with deep eyes, as if recalling past experiences: "To deal with these gangsters, you can't be soft-hearted, you must be tough. Many times, even if you don't have a perfect trump card in your hand, you have to pretend to be confident. These people have been in the underworld for a long time, and most of them are soft-hearted. You have to let them not know your true strength, and maintain a sense of mystery, so that they dare not act rashly."
Fang Xinwu listened attentively. He knew that Gao Qiqiang's words were a summary of his many years of experience in the underworld and were extremely valuable lessons for him.
Gao Qiqiang continued, "When Qi Tongwei dealt with me, he used this trick. He always acted so tough that I had to follow his rhythm instead of being led by me. And Hou Liangping, although he was upright and brave, made such a mistake in dealing with his opponent. He was too emotional and was always led by his opponent's actions, falling into a passive situation."
Fang Xinwu nodded thoughtfully: "Brother Qiang, you are right. In the process of our fight against these dark forces, we really cannot rely on passion alone, but also need a calm mind and clever strategies. I still have a lot to learn in this regard."
Gao Qiqiang patted Fang Xinwu on the shoulder and said, "You are a smart person and you have a sense of justice. These are precious qualities. As long as you continue to accumulate experience in practice, learn to understand people's hearts and grasp the situation, you will become a great man in the future. Just like the negotiation with Jimmy today, we can't reveal all our plans and cards at the beginning. We must first test his attitude, put pressure on him, and then make adjustments based on his reaction."
Fang Xinwu suddenly understood: "I understand, Brother Qiang. In the future, when faced with various complex situations, I will analyze them more calmly and deal with them wisely like you, instead of acting blindly and impulsively."
On the way back to his residence, Fang Xinwu kept thinking about Gao Qiqiang's words. He realized that this fight with the Hong Kong gangs was not only a contest of strength, but also a game of psychology and wisdom. Gao Qiqiang was undoubtedly an excellent mentor, and his experience and strategy would become his most powerful weapon in this battle.
……
After taking on the task assigned by Gao Qiqiang, Jimmie fell into deep thought, thinking about how to cleverly solve the problem of Big D, the key chess piece.
He knew very well that Big D was by no means the kind of reckless person who could be easily influenced by others. Although he looked unruly and spoke vulgarly on the surface, beneath his arrogant appearance, he actually had a cunning and calculating heart. Behind every decision and every action he made, there were often well-thought-out considerations.
What cannot be ignored is that Big D’s wife is also a character that cannot be underestimated. She is known for her shrewdness and ability. She often silently gives advice behind Big D’s back, like Big D’s think tank, protecting him in the complicated disputes in the underworld.
Jimmy knows that if he wants to successfully instigate a fierce power struggle between Big D and Ah Lok, it will not be possible to achieve his goal simply by whispering in his ear.
Careful planning must be done to create a situation in which Big D can truly feel the coexistence of threats and opportunities. Only in this way can the sensitive nerve deep in his heart be touched and he be prompted to take action.
After much thought, Jimmy finally worked out a two-pronged plan.
On the one hand, he decided to turn his attention to Dongguanzai, who occupied a certain share of the drug market in Hong Kong Island and had always had a strong ambition to expand his sphere of influence.
Jimmy planned to take advantage of Dongguanzi's characteristics and cleverly fan the flames from behind, encouraging him to seize Da D's drug market.
He knew very well that the drug business was like the foundation of Big D's foothold in the underworld. Once it was impacted, it would inevitably cause him to be highly alert and react strongly.
Jimmie begins to secretly contact Dongguanzi's men, and through various clever hints and temptations of interests, gradually arouses Dongguanzi's desire for the Big D drug market.
He carefully planned every detail to ensure that Dongguanzi's actions could accurately hit Big D's vital points, leaving Big D defenseless and passive, feeling tremendous pressure from outside.
On the other hand, Jimmy knows that it is not enough to just put pressure on Big D. He must also provide him with a seemingly more attractive way out, a smooth road that will allow him to see hope of making a comeback.
Therefore, he turned his attention to the disc market that he controlled. Jimi Zai had been in the disc business for many years and had accumulated rich resources and extensive connections. Although the disc business seemed to have little profit and was not "exciting" enough compared to the drug business, it had the huge advantages of legality and stability.
He decided to take a share of his disc market and generously gave it to Big D to manage.
He planned to meet with Big D in person and explain to him in detail the potential and prospects of the disc business, so that Big D would understand that in today's increasingly severe underworld situation, this legal business path might be the key opportunity for his resurgence.
In this way, not only can Big D's hostility caused by the seizure of the drug market be alleviated, but he can also be guided to gradually shift his focus to legal business, laying the foundation for future whitewashing and transformation.
