Hong Kong: Rise of the Kings.

Chapter 640 0628 [No more rivals]

Late night, pier.

Fighting Chicken Qiang and Buck-toothed Ju were leaning against the front of the car, chatting and joking with each other, holding cigarettes in their mouths.

Ghost Superintendent Charlie was sitting in the car, smoking a cigarette with a depressed expression.

For a moment—
The sound of a car came.

A black Bentley drove slowly towards the pier.

The Bentley stopped in front of Charlie's car.

The door is open.

Zhuang Dingxian got out of the car, walked to the back and opened the door skillfully.

Du Yongxiao got off the car.

Datouwen came down from the other side and took the windbreaker to put it on his shoulders.

"Brother Xiao!"

"Hi Brother Xiao!"

Fighting Chicken Qiang and Buck-Tooth Ju quickly stood up straight and said respectfully to Du Yongxiao.

Du Yongxiao nodded towards them.

Now that the two of them stay by Charlie's side, they are like Du Yongxiao's heaven and earth line, which is of great use.

Seeing Du Yongxiao arriving, Charlie the Ghost didn't dare to ask for help, so he hurriedly opened the car door, got out of the car, and went up to meet him.

"Hello, Du! Why are you calling me here so late?"

Charlie's handle is all in Du Yongxiao's hands. If Du Yongxiao wants him to live, he will live, and if Du Yongxiao wants him to die, he will die.This made Charlie feel aggrieved and had to help Du Yongxiao.

"Of course I want to thank you!" Du Yongxiao smiled and walked towards the seaside.

Ghost Charlie sniffed, raised his shoulders, and hurriedly followed.

It's windy at the beach.

The wind made Du Yongxiao's windbreaker rustle.

Even though Ghost Charlie shrank his neck, he still felt cold - he hated this kind of date place.

"Thank you, Superintendent Charlie." Du Yongxiao glanced at the sea. In the hazy night, there was a turbulent undercurrent, and turned to Charlie and smiled.

"You're welcome, it's all I should do."

"No, if you hadn't told me in advance this time that the Hong Kong government and Bailiqu were planning to issue an amnesty order to bribe Yan Xiong and Chen Xijiu to deal with me, I might have been caught off guard."

"Haha, Du, you have so much energy, even without my help this time, you will escape unscathed." Ghost Charlie sniffed, feeling itchy, couldn't help but cover his hands and sneeze, and apologized to Du Yongxiao: " excuse me."

Du Yongxiao smiled and snapped his fingers behind him: "It's very cold, so wear more clothes!"

Ghost Charlie smiled, but before he could say anything, Zhuang Dingxian took a cowhide bag and handed it to him.

"Uh, just what do you mean?"

"A little bit of hard work!" Du Yongxiao said casually, "I do things very simply. I will reward anyone who helps me! The same goes for you!"

"Huh?" Charlie was stunned for a moment, took the cowhide bag and opened it to see that it was a full [-] Hong Kong dollars.

"so much?"

"Not much, but I can help you buy a few more clothes!" Du Yongxiao patted him on the shoulder, "Help me do things well, and you will earn more in the future!"

Ghost Charlie smiled happily. At this moment, he suddenly felt that his whole body was hot and no longer cold. "Yes, Mr. Du! I will definitely do it! Haha!" He was extremely excited.

Ghost guy Charlie always thought that he was controlled by Du Yongxiao and could only work hard without getting any benefits, but he didn't expect that there were many benefits.

"Do it well!" Du Yongxiao encouraged him a few more words, then sent him away, saying that he would stay at the beach for a while.

Charlie happily took the money and left. Fortunately, he tipped off the news this time and Du Yongxiao was prepared.

Not only did he help Yan Xiong and Chen Xijiu get the "amnesty order", but he was also able to escape safely.

Kill two birds with one stone!
The only ones who are unhappy are probably the Hong Kong Governor and those ghost guys.

Just as Du Yongxiao was thinking about it, the door of his car behind him opened, and Gui Lao Division Chief Rosen got out of the car.

He first looked around, then at Charlie leaving the taillights of the car, and then walked towards Du Yongxiao, sighing: "I didn't expect that even Charlie is yours! I don't know who else in this police station is not With you!"

Du Yongxiao smiled, took out a cigarette from his arms and handed one over.

Rosen took the cigarette and bit it in the corner of his mouth.

Du Yongxiao took out his lighter, lit the cigarette for him, and lit one himself.

Rosen blew out a puff of smoke, which was immediately blown away by the sea breeze.

"To be honest, although I am the Commissioner of Police and superficially your superior, the entire police force obeys your orders. I am very embarrassed!"

"Don't say that, after all we are friends." Du Yongxiao smiled and exhaled a puff of smoke.

"Friend? Of course! If not, a puppet like me would have teamed up with Bailiqu to deal with you!" Rosen shook his head and smiled, "But you also know very well why I am willing to be a puppet -"

"You're going to retire next year, aren't you? Instead of dealing with me and causing a bloody storm with the Hong Kong Governor and his gang, it's better to land safely. In addition to your pension, I can also help you find a new job in my British pharmaceutical company." Position, have something to rely on when you are old, and continue to use your remaining energy, that is what you want!"

Rosen smiled bitterly: "Du, you are like a roundworm in my belly. Yes, I am actually afraid that I will have nothing to do after retirement. With such a small amount of pension, I can go fishing and mow the lawn... It is so boring. I I have seen with my own eyes that the same person looks older than before after two years of retirement!"

"I'm eager to work, I'm eager to use my spare energy, and I like the fun of being immersed in work every day. Yes, you understand me!"

Rosen looked at Du Yongxiao, "That's why I appreciate you and help you."

After a pause, Rosen looked at Du Yongxiao and said: "You Chinese are very particular about reciprocating a favor, so I plan to give you one last hand before I retire -"

Seeing his serious expression, Du Yongxiao nodded and said, "I'll listen, you tell me."

"Although you won this time, you completely lost face to Sir Bailiqu, and even the Hong Kong government! You also know that the two of them teamed up to deal with you this time - you are too powerful, and you have already lost face." If you touch their interests, they will have no choice but to attack you."

Du Yongxiao nodded: "I agree with this."

"So now you have two ways to go. First, resigning voluntarily is equivalent to giving face to the other party and expressing your willingness to surrender. Of course, according to your temperament, I guess you will not take this path, so I will give you I chose the second path——"

After finishing speaking, Rosen stood up straight and let the sea breeze blow sharply on his face. His eyes were always fixed on Du Yongxiao's face: "That is to keep climbing up and sit in my seat! At that time, your status will be the same as what you have." The rights are perfectly matched, let alone Bailiqu, even if the Hong Kong Governor wants to move you, you have to ask the [-] Hong Kong policemen if they agree!"

Be a brother!
Reinstated as police commissioner?

Although Du Yongxiao guessed it, he still looked at Rosen in surprise, "Are you really willing to stand up to me? After all, you are British and I am Chinese."

"Haha, Hong Kong belongs to you Chinese people. Rather than letting me, a ghost, take charge of the security here, it would be better to leave it to you, a local, to take care of it! I believe you will take care of it well, because you love Hong Kong. You love the people here, don’t you?”

Du Yongxiao nodded, "You are right, you British should indeed let go. Even if you don't let go now, you will still let go in the future."

There is something in Du Yongxiao's words, and he is talking about the future of [-].

Of course Rosen didn't know this. Seeing Du Yongxiao's resolute attitude, he couldn't help but be a little surprised and said with a smile: "Du, you know, sometimes I even think that you can see very far. Your vision and knowledge are beyond ordinary people - yes Yes, you often give me this feeling."

Du Yongxiao smiled: "You don't need to praise me, tell me, how are you going to let me sit in your seat?"

"Haha, it's very simple, further study! Further study! I will recommend you directly before retirement! As you know, our police force's practice is that the Commissioner of Police can designate the next successor! And I, choose The person is you!”

Rosen was right.

Although Hong Kong is a democratic society under the rule of law, in this era, because the previous black gold era was too special, the police force has an unconventional rule, that is, the highest-ranking brother, that is, the police commissioner can appoint the next candidate to replace him. Lead the police force yourself.

Even the Hong Kong government cannot easily change the designation of the Commissioner of Police, because only the stability of the police force can stabilize the entire Hong Kong society.

"Aren't you going to offend the Hong Kong government by doing this?"

"I'm about to retire, what are you afraid of?" Rosen smiled slightly, tightened his collar, and felt a little cold, "It's just that poor deputy director Hodeman has always coveted my position. I'm afraid he will fail this time."

Du Yongxiao shrugged: "This gift of yours is indeed very special. After all, since Hong Kong was controlled by the British, there has never been a Chinese as the police commissioner. I really want to give it a try."

"I knew you had such ambitions, even-" Rosen showed a sly smile on his face, "You might even want to be the governor of Hong Kong!"

I thought Du Yongxiao would cover it up, but I didn’t expect——
"Yes, I have thought about it!" Du Yongxiao looked calm, "Why shouldn't a Chinese be the governor of Hong Kong? This is our Chinese land!"

Rosen was stunned and had nothing to say.

"Okay, Director Rosen, now you can tell me how I can continue my studies so that I can successfully take over your position -"

"Haha, okay, let's get down to business!" Rosen smiled and cheered up, "Recently, the United States invited the British to study and exchange with the FBI in the United States. Hong Kong also has a quota, and I am going to nominate you to go there."

"To the United States?"

"Yes, the FBI is also famous. Go there and take a look, maybe you can learn a little more! Of course, the main thing is gold plating, just like you did when you went to Scotland Yard before." Rosen said, "Except In addition, if you leave now, you can also ease the relationship with the Hong Kong government and help the Hong Kong governor save face. Otherwise, those reporters who are afraid of chaos in the world will write up the stories that you and the Hong Kong government have to tell, and both of you will be cruel. Awkward."

Du Yongxiao smiled, "He is embarrassed, but I am not."

Rosen was afraid that Du Yongxiao would not go, so he hurriedly said: "Give me some face, please, for your own sake!"

Du Yongxiao stared at Rosen and said straight to the point: "Did MacLehose ask you to do this?"

Rosen was startled, his expression slightly flustered, but he immediately regained his composure and sighed: "As I said, I can't hide anything from you! Yes, this is a deal I made with the Hong Kong Governor's Office to let you go to the United States. , temporarily avoid the edge and allow the Hong Kong Governor to step down. Then, I will recommend you to inherit my position, and the Hong Kong Governor also nodded - this is a deal between me and him, and also a deal with you!"

Du Yongxiao nodded: "Very good, three-party deal!"

"do you agree?"

"Yes!" Du Yongxiao turned away and walked towards the car, "If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight! What's more, you just go to the United States for further study? I like the United States so much!"

Rosen was stunned after hearing this, "America is very good, with disco, hamburgers, hot dogs, and, yes, striptease—in fact, I also love America very much!"

As he spoke, Rosen chased after Du Yongxiao, "If I hadn't retired yet, I would have gone with you!"

……

As Director Rosen said, this time MacLehose teamed up with Bailiqu to kill Du Yongxiao. Instead, Du Yongxiao killed two birds with one stone. They issued amnesty orders to Yan Xiong and Chen Xijiu for free, and also killed Du Yongxiao. Retreat, it can be said that MacLehose was furious in private.To the outside world, he is the No. 1 Hong Kong government, and together with the judicial bosses, they can't do anything to Du Yongxiao. Du Yongxiao's popularity and power are really at their peak.

If To Yongxiao continues to stay in Hong Kong, MacLehose must stay at the Government House to avoid being ridiculed.

Now Rosen gave the only spot in Hong Kong to Du Yongxiao and nominated Du Yongxiao to study at the FBI headquarters in the United States. Du Yongxiao was very suitable regardless of his status - most importantly, MacLehose couldn't wait for Du Yongxiao to leave as soon as possible.

So after Lawson nominated the Hong Kong government, MacLehose approved it immediately.

Du Yongxiao will go to the United States next month!

at the same time--
Wong Chuk Hang Police Academy has also reached its annual graduation season.

As the principal of the police academy, Du Yongxiao personally awarded graduation certificates to outstanding police officers and encouraged them to abide by the law and serve the people.

The whole graduation season is very lively.

Because in addition to awarding them graduation certificates, Principal Du also invited all students to dinner, and also personally awarded "scholarships" to those students who may be high-ranking police officers in the future.

Bailiqu, the judicial boss, saw this most clearly. He was looking through Chinese historical books that day and saw Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, standing on the Meridian Gate Tower after an imperial examination and watching the new Jinshis file in. The people in the court were so happy that they said to the people around them: "All the heroes in the world are in my arms!"

Snapped!
Bailiqu closed the book and said to Li Luofu and others around him: "Scholarship? If Du Yongxiao does this, won't all the elites who come out of the police academy in the future belong to him?"

Li Luofu also lamented: "I thought he would be idle and achieve nothing in the police academy, but in the end he not only became famous all over the world, but also became a police hero for hunting wild boar, and he was also allowed to hunt down all future talents!"

Bailiqu looked melancholy and said worriedly: "Now the Hong Kong government has decided that he will go to the United States to further his studies. As far as I know, when he comes, he will be appointed as the Commissioner of Police!"

"What?" Li Luofu was shocked.

The others next to him also looked horrified.

You know, no Chinese has ever served as the Commissioner of Police in Hong Kong!
If Du Yongxiao succeeds, it will make history.

"I heard all this from the Hong Kong government -" Bailiqu walked to the window with a melancholy expression and looked outside. The autumn of 1972 had arrived, and the leaves were falling outside.

"The Governor of Hong Kong made a private deal with Lawson to send To Yongxiao out and let him inherit the position of Commissioner of Police in the future!"

"The Governor of Hong Kong... agreed?"

Bailiqu didn't answer, just nodded and looked out deeply: "So what if you don't agree? Du Yongxiao is unimaginably powerful in terms of popularity and power. It's better to let him leave than to let him stay by your side. In a word, out of sight." For the sake of purity!”

Li Luofu rolled his eyes when he heard this. He didn't expect that the ambitious Hong Kong Governor MacLehose would choose to escape from this move. It can be seen that Du Yongxiao dealt a huge blow to him this time and directly crushed his self-esteem.

Just when Li Luofu wanted to encourage Sir Bailiqu not to be discouraged, Bailiqu looked out the window and sighed: "It doesn't matter if he leaves, seeing him is really annoying!"

Li Luofu shut up immediately.

Looking at Bailiqu again, his back is stooped, his head is full of white hair, and he no longer looks as cheerful as before.

At this moment Li Luofu knew——
In the future, Du Yongxiao will return to Hong Kong.
Invincible!

……

"Mr. Du, are you going to the United States?"

In that familiar teahouse, Bruce Lee looked at Du Yongxiao and said in surprise: "You said before that you would wait until I finish shooting all the kung fu movies, but now you want to leave?"

Du Yongxiao smiled and took a sip of tea: "I went to the United States for work, and you also filmed for work. Besides, I believe that your film "Tangshan Brother" will be a hit!"

Bruce Lee smiled: "Others say I am a super confident person, but I always feel that you are more confident than me!"

After a pause, he added: "I forgot to tell you that my "Tangshan Brother" will be released tomorrow. At least I can help support it!"

With that said, Bruce Lee took out the movie ticket from his pocket and handed it to Du Yongxiao, "This is the seat I personally selected for you. As my boss and my benefactor, I hope you can see my drama with your own eyes."

Du Yongxiao took the movie ticket and looked at it, and found that there were two tickets. He was surprised and said: "Why are there two tickets?"

"Of course there is your girlfriend!" Bruce Lee smiled. "People say you are super handsome, but you don't date. Some people even say you like men..."

"Are you telling me that I like men?" Du Yongxiao pretended to be angry, "Even if I really like men, I only like those muscular men, especially those whose collarbones will crackle when they take off their clothes, and those with eight-pack abs-"

Du Yongxiao looked at Bruce Lee.

Bruce Lee immediately covered his chest and said, "I'm not suitable for you! I won't accompany you to watch my drama!"

"Haha!" Du Yongxiao laughed. It is estimated that no one in the world has seen Bruce Lee's "self-protection" posture, and only he, Du Yongxiao, can see it.

The two joked and discussed the future of Hong Kong movies again.

To Yongxiao is very familiar with Hong Kong Future. He knows everything about the golden 30 years, biweekly success, and how Hong Kong Future movies declined.

It can be said that every sentence Du Yongxiao said was very insightful and spoke directly to the bone marrow.

Especially regarding the possible shortcomings in Hong Kong in the future, such as making money by making bad movies, you plagiarize me, I plagiarize you, disrespect for originality, etc., To Yongxiao expressed his unique views.

For those movie tycoons, these views may be scoffed at, thinking that Du Yongxiao is just a policeman and not a filmmaker, so how could he know so much.

Bruce Lee listened attentively and then was stunned.

The reason is simple, Bruce Lee came from Hollywood.

Hong Kong has always been known as the Hollywood of the East.

But Hong Kong did not become Hollywood in the end. The reason is that the film industrialization failed.

Hong Kong filmmakers’ eagerness for quick success and quick profit has directly killed Hong Kong movies.

Especially starting from the 80s, when "Mr. Zombie" became popular, all the film companies followed the trend and made movies with this theme. For a time, "Mr. Zombie", "Zombie Supreme", "One Eyebrow Taoist Master", "One Eyebrow Taoist Sister" ” and so on, everyone copied it endlessly, and the film company made a lot of money until the subject matter was killed.

Then the movie "Once Upon a Time" became a hit, and major film companies followed suit again. "Iron Horse", "Iron Bridge III", and "The White Lotus" were released one after another, until this Kung Fu theme was shot to death.

By 2000, the "Young and Dangerous" series was a big hit, and many film companies followed suit again, with "The Thirteen Sisters of Hongxing", "Golden List", "Dragon Tiger Bolan Street", etc. This time they directly released "Young and Dangerous" The movie couldn't be any worse!
At this time, Hong Kong movies were already dying, and only "Infernal Affairs" injected a little vitality in the middle. Unfortunately, due to a long illness, they almost died in the end. Now they rely on directors and stars to go north to continue their lives.

What To Yongxiao sees now is the destruction of the future by the non-industrialized model of Hong Kong film development.

What Bruce Lee saw was the inadequacy of Hong Kong's current model compared with the industrialization of Hollywood.

So the more Du Yongxiao talked about it, the more surprised he became, and in the end he was just horrified.

After Du Yongxiao finished speaking, he realized that he had spoken too much, otherwise Bruce Lee would not have looked at him like a monster.

"Cough cough!"

To Yongxiao coughed twice and said: "In short, the road to industrialization of Hong Kong films is full of obstacles. I hope you can lead Hong Kong filmmakers to complete it."

"Why do you know so much?"

"Because I love Hong Kong and Hong Kong movies, I got to know him!" Du Yongxiao said.

"Then why did you choose me?"

"Because you are the best filmmaker, Kung Fu star, of course -" Du Yongxiao suddenly thought of something.

"Of course what?"

"Of course you want to live a long life!" Du Yongxiao pinched his chin and looked at Bruce Lee with strange eyes.

Bruce Lee didn't know why, but he looked at him with horror.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Now, you have to listen clearly to everything I say!" Du Yongxiao suddenly said seriously.

"You talk, I listen."

"Do you often have headaches?"

"Uh, how do you know?"

"Do you often use electric shocks to stimulate your muscles?"

"Yes! How do you know?"

Bruce Lee looked at Du Yongxiao in surprise.

His practice has always been very secretive, and few people know that he likes to use electric shock methods to stimulate muscles, coordinate body sensitivity, and endurance.

"This is not good for your health!" Du Yongxiao said solemnly, "You'd better stop this stimulating behavior and find a more reliable doctor to treat your headache. Don't hide your illness and avoid medical treatment."

What Du Yongxiao talked about was the main reason for the death of Bruce Lee in the previous life. Bruce Lee himself had "cerebral edema" in his brain, but he always believed that he was healthy and did not go to the doctor. He relied on electric shock therapy to continue to endure and adapt to various pains. These include headaches, so that in the future, after the cerebral edema ruptures, he will not be treated in time, and he will die directly.

Now Du Yongxiao made a surprising statement, directly pointing out two points, which shocked Bruce Lee.

He had never told anyone about his headaches, not even his wife Linda knew about it. In her eyes, he was a healthy, burly man.

Yes, he is a kung fu star. How could he be seen lying in the hospital?

As if he guessed what Bruce Lee was thinking, Du Yongxiao reminded him: "You can go to the United States and ask me to visit you. Then you will find an expert to give you private diagnosis and treatment. Then you will know whether what I said is right or wrong."

Bruce Lee couldn't help but wonder: "How do you know so much?"

Du Yongxiao stood up, took off his hat from the hanger and put it on his head. He turned back and smiled at Bruce Lee: "Because I come from the future!"

"From the future?"

Bruce Lee couldn't help but be startled when he saw Du Yongxiao's mysterious appearance.

Du Yongxiao stared at Bruce Lee for two seconds, then laughed, turned and walked towards the door.

Bruce Lee knew that he was being fooled. Looking at Du Yongxiao's back, he suddenly laughed: "Are you making a science fiction movie? I support you!"

Du Yongxiao would not wave his hand at him: "Wait until you become a big star!"

Du Yongxiao knew that Bruce Lee didn't believe it.

But he has said everything he can say. Whether Bruce Lee can "come back from the dead" this time depends on how much he believes!
