Chapter 65: Four Young Masters of Shanghai Street

Yin Zhaotang treated the elders of the club who came to support him to a meal. Before leaving, Fat Cat handed a red envelope to Yin Zhaotang and said, "Work hard, I'm counting on you!"

"Thank you, Grandpa."

Yin Zhaotang took the thick red envelope and knew from the weight that there were at least several thousand yuan in it.

"You're capable of making money by doing both the regular and the side business." Fat Cat patted Yin Zhaotang on the shoulder, walked out of the restaurant, and got into his newly bought Mercedes-Benz.

After all the uncles from the society had left, Yin Zhaotang opened the red envelope, took out the money and handed it to the left hand beside him: "Deposit it into the account!"

"Wow, eight thousand eight hundred and eighty! Grandpa is so generous!" He counted the banknotes with his left hand and shouted happily.

Dan Tart smoked a cigarette and said proudly: "Grandpa, you are not generous and make people laugh!"

"This month, we have brought in more than 20,000 clients just from the calls from magazines. The cheapest Fengjie in the company charges 150 yuan per hour. Those who have shot for magazines charge at least 500 yuan, and cover girls charge more than 1,000 yuan. There are so many people waiting in line."

"Just from this business, the society earned millions more last month!"

"Fuck, you pervert, no, the men really love the kids, they spend money without hesitation."

Yin Zhaotang patted Dant's head and said with a hint of warning: "Shut up and keep a low profile! We published the phone numbers of the girls in our magazine and snatched a lot of business from Zimo Malan. If you brag about it again, be careful to get slapped!"

Egg Tart shouted unconvincedly: "I am not afraid of them, we make money by our own ability."

There are too many incompetent people in this world who cannot stand the success of competent people. You know, the magazines that solicit customers actually intercept a lot of customers from the horse stables to a certain extent.

In the past, the free magazines were just small-scale, distributed on the streets to attract individual customers. Now, they are printed in "91 Men", which can catch all the perverts in Hong Kong Island.

Moreover, Yin Zhaotang not only opened a horse stable in Mong Kok, but also distributed customers to fellow brothers in Yau Ma Tei, Tseung Kwan O and Causeway Bay, leading the entire society to make money together.

With the combined strength of four gangs, they took over the market and offended many people.

At the end of the month, Yin Zhaotang had an extra 91 Hong Kong dollars in the small treasury of his gang, but the most profitable business was still magazine.

The three issues sold 710,000 copies. Based on the market price of five dollars per copy, the total sales amounted to 3.55 million Hong Kong dollars.

After deducting the cost price of 2.3 yuan and the 50 cents profit made by the newspaper sellers, the 2.2 yuan saved is actually the profit of the magazine company.

One million five hundred and sixty-two thousand Hong Kong dollars!

After deducting taxes, labor, office rent and material costs, the actual cash earned was over a million.

It’s just that because the magazine company has a tailback system, they need to keep hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars as a reserve fund, so the money they can spend is not that much for now.

Now each issue of the magazine is initially published in 200,000 copies. If the sales are good, another 50,000 to 100,000 copies will be printed. After a period of time, when the magazine is circulated within the province and Hong Kong and Macao, it can actually sell another 10,000 to 20,000 copies.

During the bonus period of the past few years, it was no problem for magazine sales to remain stable at around 250,000, and stable income was not a problem. But after this period, if we can guarantee sales of more than 100,000 for five or six years, we can set off fireworks to celebrate.

Firstly, there will definitely be a lot of followers in the newspaper industry, and secondly, readers will get bored if they read too much, so it is better to do something exciting from time to time. It is fine for customers to buy two or three copies and fly planes in turn, why do they have to buy new ones every time?

It was unrealistic to expect to become a wealthy Hong Kong tycoon by selling pornographic magazines, but as the first pot of gold, the money earned was enough. Yin Zhaotang and his brothers began to upgrade their weapons, put on suits, put on famous watches, and drove Remy Martin and Hennessy in nightclubs, surrounded by people and looking respectable.

At this time, Jiang Hao, wearing a denim shirt, came behind Dan Ta and teased with a smile: "Brother Dan Ta, you are so arrogant. When you have brothers under you, you just speak loudly!"

A while ago, a temple was opened in Mong Kok, and Yin Zhaotang accepted 48 disciples, among whom the famous ones include Niu Qiang, Hua Pi, Jie Ba, Qiang Shui, Sha Hui, Dao Zai Wen, Ah King, Chuo Jiao Jin and others.

They were all former Kwun Tong hooligans, all of them got the identity of Jing Zhong Yi Si Jiu, and became disciples of Shuang Hua Hong Gun Shen Xian Tang!

This group of people had become the envy of the hooligans in Kwun Tong, while Zhuang Xiong, the man with the white paper fan, only accepted thirteen people, and Liu Chuanzong, the man with straw sandals, accepted eight people.

These two people specialize in helping Fat Cat manage private companies and do not interfere in the affairs of the gang, so the number of people they recruit is very small.

Yin Zhaotang divided the 49 guys into groups. Except for a dozen who followed him, the rest followed Zuoshou, Ah Hao and the other three.

Now the four of them are collectively known as the "Four Young Masters of Shanghai Street", with Jiang Hao being the head of Shenxiantang, and they have quite a reputation in the underworld.

Although Yin Zhaotang personally thought that the Four Young Masters of Shanghai Street sounded very lame, he couldn't control the mouths of those bad boys, so Ah Le, Ah Hao, and Left Hand Egg Tart could only be gloriously promoted to Young Master Le, Young Master Jiang, Young Master Pan, and Young Master Guan.

Because their real names are in this order, they are Lin Changle, Jiang Hao, Pan Zhiyun and Guan Dexiang.

Of course, Dan Tart didn't dare to talk back to Brother Hao. He shrugged his shoulders wisely and said, "No matter how many brothers we have, they are not enough for you, Brother Hao, to fight alone."

Ah Hao does have the fewest number of gangsters under him, but all of them are good fighters. They either hang out in teahouses or in boxing gyms every day. They are the absolute backbone of the gang.

It’s just that Ah Hao doesn’t have a good relationship with Zhuang Xiong and Liu Chuanzong. He would confront them whenever they met, as if he felt that they were not worthy of being the craftsmen in Mong Kok, and were not even worthy of making straw sandals!

But after he came back from Macau, although he was not able to get a job, he was assigned the most places and earned more than 100,000 yuan a month. He worked hard for the society and the boss without any complaints.

Jiang Hao fished out a few movie tickets from his pocket, his face flushed, and he said drunkenly, "Boss, I just had two drinks with the manager of the Nathan Road Theater. He said that there will be a new movie by Big Nose Dragon released tonight. It cost two million US dollars and invited a lot of foreigners to shoot it. It's a big production. Are you interested?"

Yin Zhaotang took the movie ticket. The title on the ticket was "Killer Trench", which was Cheng Shilong's first attempt at Hollywood after signing with Golden Harvest.

The movie itself is quite watchable, but its box office was disappointing, earning only 578 million domestically.

If it weren't for the strong distribution support of Golden Harvest, which took the lead in Chinese-language films going overseas and won the box office championship in Taiwan, Japan, and Macau, it would probably have lost everything.

"I'm OK. I haven't been to the theater to watch a movie yet. If I don't go even if I get the movie ticket, people will think I'm putting on airs."

Yin Zhaotang said.

Dan Tart shook his head: "I have to go to see the cars tonight, so I won't go."

The left hand was a little excited: "I'm OK too."

"Let's go together." Ale said.

As a loyal fan of Cheng Shilong, Jiang Hao could only watch the video tapes in the past, but of course he would not miss the new movie today.
