"You still give me a script, that's fine."
Wang Jing was overjoyed. He had been a screenwriter before, but the scripts he wrote could only be said to have inherited his father's work and were just average.
These days, Wang Jing has been very obedient to Wu Changyun, and at one point, he was closer to him than his own brothers.
That day, Wu Changyun brought Wang Jing home and happened to meet Fu Shun, who was covered in dust, rummaging through something in the room.
"What's wrong? Where did you get all this mess?" Wu Changyun asked.
Ever since this guy contracted the construction site, he has started to work on projects. I heard that he recently received an order to do first-level development.
Everything went according to Wu Changyun's script. In 1978, the Hong Kong government opened up to cooperation with private entrepreneurs in real estate development. Fortunately, this time the bid was won perfectly thanks to the previous experience and accumulation.
"By the way, I've been busy and don't have time to treat you to dinner." Fushun said while standing in the corridor with a hammer in hand.
"Holy crap, what are you doing? Repairing the car?"
Wu Changyun saw that Fushun had bad intentions and thought that he was not inviting him to dinner, but was more like being beaten with a hammer.
"No, it's about the construction site. You don't know. I had some trouble with the residents."
Wu Changyun realized after a moment's thought that it was a problem with the residents being relocated. Currently, most of the government's relocation orders were to demolish old houses and build new ones, and everyone was rushing to do this.
Fushun didn't intend to quarrel with the people being relocated at first, but some people really didn't want to leave. No matter what method he used, even if Fushun knelt down to the old man, it wouldn't work.
With no other choice, Fushun decided to put on a show for the old man.
Wu Changyun sighed. Anyone who had anything to do with demolition would end up with a bad reputation. It was also his fault for not considering it at the beginning.
Fearing that something might be wrong in Fushun, Wu Changyun also planned to go along to take a look. Coincidentally, Wang Jing had become closer to Wu Changyun recently, so he went along for a ride.
When he arrived at the scene, Wu Changyun saw that there were clusters of villages nearby, and an area in the middle had been flattened.
There are still a few houses with the word "demolish" written in big letters on their walls, but the people inside are still living and the lights are still on.
"Brother Yun, you don't know, this guy is really stubborn. I've come up with an idea. It's too dangerous here right now. I'm going to fire two cannons at him tonight to scare him."
Fushun ordered the firecrackers he had bought, which made a very loud noise. He also prepared some burning materials such as straw, and smoke would rise as soon as the firecrackers were made.
Rumors had already spread that explosives were going to be used.
"Can people believe this?" Wu Changyun frowned. He felt that this matter was not appropriate, but it was not appropriate to interfere now.
"Believe it or not, try acting it out first."
"What if someone reports the case? What will you do then?"
"Damn, all the land here is mine now. Can I burn some paper on my own land to commemorate my ancestors?" Fushun looked arrogant, completely different from his previous personality that had to discuss everything in advance.
"I advise you not to do this. If someone panics, they might get into danger, especially an elderly person."
"Come on, I have no choice but to do this. Just stay away from me for a while." Fushun seemed a little impatient. He didn't want Wu Changyun to follow him because this method was indeed a bit embarrassing. He didn't want to look bad in front of Wu Changyun.
Wu Changyun and Wang Jing walked around the construction site several times and found that this was a good place.
It is close to the main road, and two or three-story Western-style buildings can be seen within 500 meters on both sides. Only this area has scattered bungalows. There was not much planning when the houses were built, so although there is some distance between the houses, the overall look is crooked.
"Your brother is in this business."
Wang Jing couldn't help but look up to Fu Shun in his heart, because in Hong Kong now, everyone is talking about real estate, including many of Wang Jing's relatives and friends who also hope to enter the market.
But most of them don’t have the spare time to do it, and unfortunately there are not many local mature talents in the market.
Fushun has an advantage. Not only does he have his own construction team, which was formed after he took on the order for the environmental protection company, he also has bidding experience and past performance.
Including Wu Changyun's network of relationships, although Fushun never mentioned it, it couldn't stop people from knowing him.
In fact, Wu Changyun himself didn’t know how useful his name was.
In the eyes of ordinary people, most of the movies made in Hong Kong nowadays are related to those bad social groups and gangs. Wu Changyun often appears in newspapers and takes photos with various high-ranking officials from relevant departments.
In the eyes of a large number of citizens at the time, the ICAC was not much different from the old corrupt police station. It was just that those in power were reshuffling the cards for power.
Wu Changyun's name was even published in the newspaper together with the Queen's. There are rumors that Wu Changyun is a behind-the-scenes boss who successfully used the security and film and television industries to whitewash himself.
This led to some guys who were not considered good people also being afraid of Wu Changyun's reputation.
At that time, Wu Changyun established a security company to prevent people making movies from being interfered with by some evil forces, and to prevent incidents like "Prison on Fire" or Jackie Chan being shot at the airport.
Now it has become a case of doing good things but leaving a bad reputation.
Suddenly, Wu Changyun heard the sound of firecrackers not far away, but it was not yet the time agreed by Fushun. He had originally planned to wait until late at night when there were few vehicles and people nearby.
"Is it on fire?"
Wang Jing pointed in the direction where the firecrackers had just been heard.
Wu Changyun also saw it, so he quickly ran over with Wang Jing.
When I got closer, I saw that Fushun and several of his men were fetching water from the pipe to put out the fire. The flames were more than a person's height. There were a lot of wood and asbestos tiles in the ruins, which were all highly flammable materials.
The fire was about to approach the old man's house. Fortunately, everyone was outside, and several young people controlled the old man and prevented him from rushing into the house.
Wu Changyun also helped this family put out the fire. He was quick and agile and rushed to the front. The firefighters arrived in a short while. By the time the fire was completely extinguished, the old man's house had been burned down to the point where not even the frame was left.
When Wu Changyun heard the crying of the old man's family, he immediately became angry.
"That's what you did."
Wu Changyun grabbed Fushun by the scruff of the neck and pressed him in front of the old man's family. Recalling Fushun's previous confident attitude, Wu Changyun felt more and more that this guy was not suitable for this job and something would happen sooner or later.
Just now, Wu Changyun felt that something was wrong with Fushun, but he couldn't put his finger on it.
Only then did Wu Changyun realize that Fushun was now engaged in a high-risk industry, driving heavy vehicles, various dangerous tools, and performing high-altitude operations.
But from Fushun's tone just now, Wu Changyun didn't feel any awe in him at all.
Fushun didn't dare to retort. He looked aggrieved because he had never ordered this to happen.
"Damn it, who did this? I was cheated, Brother Yun, you have to believe me." Fushun explained repeatedly.
The most important thing now is that no one at the scene can run away. Wu Changyun glanced around and found that an old man retreated when he met Wu Changyun's gaze.
