What's the result?
Now that the matter is settled, we went to give him the good news out of kindness.
His secretary coldly kicked us out of the Huo Building!
I didn't even finish my cup of tea!
That face, they treat us like dirt on the street!"
He became more and more excited as he spoke, with veins on his forehead exposed, and he deliberately said: "Using us as chamber pots!
It stinks after use!
So what about the Huo family?
It's just a few dirty bucks!"
"Master Bao! You can't say that!
Spread it out..."
"Brother Bao, have a cup of tea to calm down..."
"Stop talking!"
Several timid editors turned pale with fear and almost rushed up to cover his mouth.
Huang Yulang's face was also terribly gloomy. He stood up suddenly and said in an unprecedentedly stern voice:
"Shangguan Xiaobao! Shut up! If you want to die, don't drag everyone down with you!
That’s the Huo family!
One finger can crush us all!
Do you think Young Master Huo really doesn't know about your shameful methods?
He didn't say anything, which was already a great favor!
What else do you want?
Do you want to ask him for a reward?"
Deep down, he was filled with regret and fear. If he had known that Shangguan Xiaobao was so impatient and stupid, he should not have joined forces with him to do such a thing.
Now, this deep pool of water has been directly stirred up by this reckless man.
"Hmph! A favor?"
Shangguan Xiaobao was suppressed by Huang Yulang's harsh expression and his momentum weakened a little.
But his resentment had not subsided. Instead, the word "asking for a reward" completely irritated his sensitive self-esteem. He stiffened his neck, with a sinister and crazy light flashing in his eyes.
"Spread it out?
It’s better to spread it out!
It would be best if the whole of Hong Kong Island heard about it and published it in all the newspapers in Hong Kong Island!
Just say that we did all this because Young Master Huo, Huo Zhenting, personally ordered us to do it!
We are just knives in his hands. He is unhappy with Kobayashi Tenmo and wants to destroy his business in Hong Kong Island, so he instructed us to cause sabotage and spread the news!
He, Fok Chun-ting, is the mastermind behind all this!"
He gasped, a twisted look of revengeful pleasure on his face: "Wait until Young Master Huo sees the newspaper headlines clearly written, I want to see what expression he has on his face!
Being a whore, you still want to be a saint!
Hehe, by then the people of Hong Kong will know how dirty the Huo family’s methods are in their fight for jealousy!
Then Peter Ho will definitely jump out to deny it, saying that he doesn't know us "bad guys" and that we are making false accusations!
Isn’t that perfect?
Let everyone see, this is how the Huo family destroys bridges after crossing them!
Throw away after use!
I just want to vent my anger!
Let Huo Zhenting also have a taste of what it feels like to have the shit pot dropped on his head!"
He had already fallen into a state of despair and frenzy.
Anyway, it has been done, and I have offended that vindictive Japanese guy Kobayashi Tianwang. It’s a good opportunity to drag your Huo family into this and divert the attention!
These words were like thunder from a clear sky, making everyone in the box pale and their hair stand on end.
The young editors were trembling with fear, and some of them had already begun to move secretly towards the door.
Huang Yulang was so angry that he was shaking all over. He pointed at Shangguan Xiaobao, his fingers trembling:
“You…you…you’re crazy!
Shangguan Xiaobao!
This is self-destruction!
If you offend Xiaolin Tianwang, you may still have a chance of survival. But if you offend the Huo family, do you still want to gain a foothold in Hong Kong Island?
Still want a tomorrow?
By then, don’t even think about drawing comics, no one will even dare to hire you to carry bags at the dock!
You’ll implicate everyone!”
madman!
This is absolutely crazy behavior!
Alarm bells rang in Huang Yulang's heart, and a strong sense of crisis gripped him. He had to draw a clear line between himself and this time bomb immediately.
"Tomorrow? Dragon Jump will be gone tomorrow! What am I afraid of?!"
Shangguan Xiaobao shouted back arrogantly.
He picked up the whole bottle of whiskey on the table and took a big gulp directly from the bottle without using a glass.
The Huo family... Xiaolin Tianwang...
I don’t care about so many things!
At least now, I win!
The only sounds left in the box were heavy breathing, the gulping sound of Shangguan Xiaobao drinking, and the vague sound of opera in the distance. The clinking of glasses and laughter just now were gone, leaving only a suffocating sense of panic and division.
This celebration banquet ended abruptly in an extremely weird atmosphere.
Everyone left with a heavy heart, as if a heavy rock was pressing on their heart, as if they had foreseen the storm was about to come.
…
On the other side, on Victoria Peak, the terrace of the Governor's House Garden was bathed in the soft afterglow of the setting sun.
The air has a unique crispness that is unique to the top of the mountain, completely different from the noisy atmosphere of the city below.
Governor of Hong Kong Sir Murray MacLehose sat leisurely on a rattan chair, holding a cup of Earl Grey tea at just the right temperature.
His wife, Ms. Deng Liping, was reclining on the French sofa next to him.
At hand were several English and Chinese newspapers of the day, and in the floor-to-ceiling window not far away, a color TV screen was broadcasting TVB's 6:30 evening news.
The news footage clearly showed the predicament of the "Dragon Jump" comics: the printing factory was a mess of machine wreckage, and the picture was blurred, but the chaos was visible.
Street vendors sell cheap pirated books, interview clips of readers complaining, and commentators making jokes with Hong Kong humor:
"It seems that Mr. Kobayashi Tenmo, our dragon from Japan, is swimming in shallow waters this time. He can't produce the magazine, and even the printing factory has become a wasteland. The latest issue has not yet appeared. I'm afraid he will have to return home in disgrace!
