The king of ghost horse comedy

Chapter 446 Entering the Military Industry

0 bought a passenger ship and converted it into a gambling ship, and then picked up tourists to gamble on the high seas. It was an idea invented by Macau gambling saint Yehan.Once it was implemented in the past, it became very popular immediately, tourists were making money, and the gambling king Ho Hongshen's casino business plummeted.

The reason why Xu Guanwu proposed this idea to Zhulian was actually inspired by the Zhao family.Zhao Yazhi's mother is a gambler. Apart from betting on horses in Hong Kong, buying Mark Six lottery tickets, and playing mahjong in mahjong parlors, she also goes to Macau to play from time to time.However, although her gambling addiction is strong enough, her gambling luck is really bad. Every time she gambles, she will lose, and she always loses two to three million yuan a month.

Two or three million Hong Kong dollars is already regarded as an unprecedented wealth in Hong Kong. Even rich men like Li Jiacheng, Huo Yingdong, and Li Zhaoji would not dare to spend money like this.

Xu Guanwu hated Zhao's mother's excessive gambling, so he was very sensitive about it, and specially sent someone to investigate the gambling business in Hong Kong and Macau.I don’t know, I don’t know if I check it, I’m shocked. It turns out that people in Macau and Hong Kong like to gamble, whether it’s Chinese flower stalls, lottery, horse racing, dog fighting, or playing mahjong, or going to the casino to gamble on Stud and Sic Bo. Wait, there are all kinds of gambling methods.And the market size is more than [-] billion, which is a very large treasury.

Although Xu Guanwu hates gambling, he doesn't hate making money. Naturally, he wants to get involved in such a huge business, but opening a casino is a side job, and it's not something ordinary people can do.When Ho Hongshen was in Macau, he really experienced a bloody storm.Not to mention those underground casinos in Hong Kong. There are clubs behind each of them, and they often go shopping in order to compete for customers. How can ordinary people have the strength to intervene?

Xu Guanwu also didn't want to run an underground casino illegally. With his current status, he didn't bother to try his own methods to make that little money.What he wants is to make money in an upright manner, but gambling in Hong Kong is illegal, while Ho Hongshen holds all the gambling cards in Macau, even if Xu Guanwu wanted to intervene, he couldn't find a way out.

So he remembered the trick that Ye Han used to transport gamblers to the high seas to gamble, and the laws of Hong Kong and Macau could not sanction him.However, going to the high seas is also dangerous, and there will be pirates or outlaws, so it is natural to have someone to protect it.

Although Xu Guanwu can easily recruit a group of people in Hong Kong, he doesn't want to get too involved in the underworld. Therefore, it is a good idea to use the power of the Taiwan Bamboo Federation.

He had been thinking about this idea for a while, but he didn't put it into practice right away. Now it happened that Bamboo Union was treating guests, and he wanted to get some tips for making money from him.He took advantage of the opportunity to bring this attention to the fact that the results obtained by being begged and begged by others are naturally different.

Chen Qili, Zhang Anle, and Wu Dun all looked at each other, and they all thought that Xu Guanwu's idea was really great, it was an idea that no one had thought of before, and it was definitely a good idea that broke the world.

In fact, they have been involved in the gaming industry for a long time. It is just an underground casino, hiding like a turtle egg. Not only must they always be on guard against the police's raids, they must also guard against attacks from the Four Seas Gang and the corners of the province.It can be said that even making money is quite hard work, and the risks are quite large.

Although Macau's gaming industry is a legal business, and the Bamboo Union has always wanted to step in, the black X in Macau will be a local snake, and its strength is also very strong.Although the Bamboo Union is not a dragon crossing the river, it is difficult for a strong dragon to overwhelm a snake.

Besides, there is a gambling king in Macau, Ho Hongshen, who is in charge of the sky. He not only has good friends with the Macau government, but also has considerable influence in Hong Kong.Responsible for allocating the big pie of the gaming industry, of course the biggest piece was taken away by him.

After the development of Bamboo Union in the past two years, although it seems to be doing legitimate business, its main business is actually smuggling, underground casinos, sex industry, etc. They have always been jealous of the gaming industry in Macau, and they have also The entrusting person sent a message to the gambling king Ho Hongshen, wanting to get a share of the pie in Macau.Just like in "Young and Dangerous: Raptors Crossing the River", Lei Fuhong of the Sanlian Gang wants to get involved in Macau's gaming industry.

But the gambling king Ho Hongshen has never had the Niaozhulian, and it is clear that he does not want Taiwanese to get involved, which inevitably makes Chen Qili very dissatisfied.

Bamboo Union now has tens of thousands of brothers in Taiwan, and they are all elites who can fight hard.Moreover, Taiwan implements a national military service system, so most of the Bamboo Union brothers have received formal military training. Compared with the gangsters who started fighting on the streets in Macau and Hong Kong, these brothers of military background are undoubtedly more powerful.

In addition, Bamboo Union now has very strong firepower and has accumulated a lot of money. In terms of strength, in the underground world of East Asia, it is second only to Japan's Yakuza, and compared to Macau's 14K, Shuifang, and Hong Kong's Xinyi. Ann and others are much stronger.Therefore, Chen Qili was ambitious and wanted to expand his power on a large scale.

In addition, the development model of Taiwan's black clubs is to imitate Japan. The Japanese Yamaguchi group has expanded its business to all parts of the world and established a systematic underground network.By setting up strongholds in various countries around the world, the Yamaguchi-gumi's illegal business can be carried out across borders.This undoubtedly greatly reduces the risk of solving the case, and allows the Yamaguchi group to make a fortune.

After Chen Qili was released from prison, he specially sent people to the Yamaguchi-gumi to learn the business management model. Naturally, he also greatly appreciated the overseas expansion capabilities of the Yamaguchi-gumi. Hong Kong and Macau, which are close at hand and rich in wealth, naturally became his first place to enter.

However, the strength of the black clubs in Hong Kong and Macau is also quite good. The key is that they are local snakes, who can attack and retreat as well as defend. If the Bamboo Federation wants to get involved, it is bound to have a tough battle to fight.

But if you gamble on the high seas, you are not afraid of being harassed by the police, and you are far away from other people's territory, and you are not afraid of hostile gangs coming to make trouble.As for the pirates that haunt the sea, Zhulian's brothers naturally have powerful weapons to deal with them.

Bamboo Union has hoarded a lot of powerful munitions in recent years, such as AK47, shotguns, rocket launchers and the like, all of which are capable of fighting a small war.However, shooting on the streets of Taipei will naturally cause a lot of trouble, so it is usually just a knife.But on the high seas, there are not so many scruples. If any pirate with no eyesight dares to come, he will come in standing up and go out lying down.

Such a tactic will not only allow the Bamboo Federation to enter the gaming industry without bloodshed, but also weaken the underground forces in Macau and Hong Kong. Under the ebb and flow, when the Bamboo Federation lands in Hong Kong in the future, there will naturally be a lot less twists and turns.

So Chen Qili, Zhang Anle, and Wu Dun's eyes lit up, and they couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Mr. Xu's idea is really great. It really deserves to be the legendary golden touch." Chen Qili couldn't help but praised, "I'm really convinced."

Xu Guanwu couldn't help smiling slightly, "This is just a superficial point of view, and it shouldn't be praised by Chief Chen."

"By the way, Mr. Xu, I wonder how much it will cost to buy a luxury cruise ship and convert it into a casino?" Zhang Anle asked suddenly.

"Uh, if you want to make a lot of money, you can't save the investment at the beginning. The luxury cruise ship must not be too small, it must not be too shabby, and it must be safe, so it will cost HK$4000 million. Including the subsequent decoration costs, and the initial publicity costs, etc., it will cost at least 8000 to [-] million Hong Kong dollars." Xu Guanwu counted with his fingers.

After the calculation, the faces of Chen Qili, Zhang Anle, and Wu Dun were all green, and Chen Manna couldn't even close her mouth, she could almost stuff an egg into it.

Seventy-eight million Hong Kong dollars, equivalent to more than 8000 million New Taiwan dollars, even if we sell all the properties of Bamboo Union, we can't make up such a large sum of money.

Chen Qili couldn't help but secretly regretted it. At first he heard this idea and thought it was a unique idea, thinking that he could get involved in the gaming industry from now on, and he made a big fuss because of it.But after Xu Guanwu analyzed all the investments, he felt that this was really a huge pit, it was too cheating.

Seventy-eight million Hong Kong dollars is not a small amount. Even Xin Ngee Ann, Hutchison, which has been entrenched in Hong Kong for a long time, 8000K in Macau, Water House, etc., cannot casually spend such a large amount of money.

No wonder the idea of ​​gambling on the high seas is not difficult to think of, but no one has put it into practice. The investment is really too huge.Moreover, gambling boats floating on the high seas will face danger anytime and anywhere, especially in the typhoon season, and business will be cut off.At that time, we still have to worry about whether the ship will sink, unlike the Lisboa Hotel built on land, unless Lu Shen basically doesn't have to worry about suddenly disappearing.

"Mr. Xu, our Bamboo Union really can't afford such a large amount of money." Zhang Anle said with a bitter face. He is the military adviser of the Bamboo Federation's account manager and knows that although the Bamboo Federation has made some money over the years, But in the end, the background is too thin, and the expansion has been too strong in these years, so it looks good on the surface, but in fact, the money has not accumulated much.Therefore, the seventy-eight million Hong Kong dollars will never come out, and even one or twenty million Hong Kong dollars will be difficult.

"I don't think you all need to worry. We are guarding Mr. Xu, the God of Wealth. We are afraid that we will not succeed without money?" Wu Dun suddenly laughed.

After his reminder, Chen Qili and Zhang Anle immediately looked at Xu Guanwu with burning eyes.

Xu Guanwu couldn't help smiling, thinking that what I was waiting for was your words. "I also intend to enter the gaming industry, how about we cooperate?"

"Mr. Xu, please tell me." Chen Qili said with a smile.

"Okay, how about this, I paid all the money for the purchase and decoration of the luxury cruise ship, but the operation and security work are all in charge of the Zhulian Brothers, and I will not interfere at all." Xu Guanwu smiled and said, "As for the shareholding In terms of things, Master Chen, tell me the number."

Chen Qili couldn't help being taken aback when he heard this. If it was according to what Xu Guanwu said, he covered all the initial investment by himself, but Zhulian could participate in the operation, then Zhulian undoubtedly took advantage of it.You don't need to spend a dime to own such a large mobile casino.

You must know that in the Lisboa Hotel in Macau, a single casino is worth tens of millions. What about a luxury cruise ship with three floors and a displacement of [-] tons?That is simply sky-high!

But since Xu Guanwu's investment is so large, it is natural to take more shares, otherwise Zhulian will be scolded and ugly.Besides, Xu Guanwu is also a loyal ally of the Bamboo Federation, and he also has huge influence in Hong Kong.Not to mention the newspapers and TV stations under the banner, they are the sharp knives that kill people without paying for their lives.

Chen Qili has also worked on some magazines and publications, and he is deeply aware of the power of the media, so naturally he dare not underestimate Xu Guanwu's power.In addition, the business with him will continue to grow in the future, so we can't be too greedy and offend everyone.

Therefore, Chen Qili thought about it and proposed a distribution plan that he could accept. "Since Mr. Xu thinks highly of Chen so much, let me tell you my humble opinion. Since you, Mr. Xu, are wholly-owned, and our Bamboo Union is responsible for the operation and security work, how about we divide it into [-]/[-]? Mr. Xu, you take the Seventy percent, our Bamboo Union accounted for thirty percent?"

The distribution ratio mentioned by Chen Qili is based on the distribution ratio between Macau gambling king Ho Hongshen and the local gangster club.

Xu Guanwu couldn't help laughing when he heard this, "The Zhulian Brothers have to be in charge of both operations and security. It's too little to account for only [-]%. Let me take a step back and only account for [-]%. The Zhulian Brothers can account for [-]%. Four percent."
