Chapter 81

However, Shi Qiang changed the subject and asked, "Inspector Fei, I remember you were in the Serious Crime Unit, right? Why are you doing patrol duty now?"

Fei Lun gave him a sidelong glance, neither friendly nor hostile, and said with a sneer, "What's it to you? Your men seem to be doing pretty well, driving a GTR!"

"Ah, not really. To be honest, I lent them the car," Shi Qiang said with a forced smile.

Fei Lun, upon hearing this, pointed at the GTR and asked, "This car, yours?"

"Y-yes, yes!" Shi Qiang nodded repeatedly.

Fei Lun then kicked the car, shattering the headlight with a "bang" and asked, "How much should I pay?"

Shi Qiang was momentarily petrified. Regaining his composure, he hurriedly said with a smile, "How could I ask Inspector Fei for money!"

Unexpectedly, Fei Lun swaggered over to the other headlight and asked with a wicked smile, "So, if I kick it, do I have to pay?"

Shi Qiang followed with a long face and said, "Inspector Fei, please don't mess with me!"

"I'm asking if I have to pay," Fei Lun repeated.

"Pay, you have to pay!" Shi Qiang said, his face looking as if he had lost a loved one.

Fei Lun took out a few thousand dollars and casually stuffed it into Shi Qiang's collar, sneering, "Is this enough?"

"Enough, enough!" Although the money was a bit short, Shi Qiang didn't dare ask for more.

The surrounding gangsters were puzzled by their boss's fear of Fei Lun. Many were eager to attack the police if Shi Qiang gave the order. However, Shi Qiang kept smiling and nodding until Mo Wan Ning finished writing the ticket.

Fei Lun took the ticket from Mo Wan Ning and slapped it on Shi Qiang's chest, saying, "Remember to pay the fine, or I'll visit your chicken stall every day."

Shi Qiang bowed and said, "I will, I'll pay the fine on time." He then signaled to the yellow-haired man to leave quickly.

When the yellow-haired man joined the other gangsters, Shi Qiang also planned to leave. He saluted Fei Lun and was about to turn when Fei Lun said, "Hold on, Shi Qiang, I have more to ask."

Shi Qiang looked embarrassed and said, "What is it, Inspector Fei?"

"I heard that Yan Xingnan's influence has reached Central, and he's selling pills there. Is that true?" Fei Lun asked in a neutral tone.

"Ah? Is that so? I haven't heard anything about it!" Shi Qiang pretended to be ignorant. "Besides, how can we little guys dare to ask about Yan Boss's business?"

Fei Lun, hearing this, waved his hand impatiently and said, "Alright, scram!"

Shi Qiang bowed and backed away, stopping only when he was several meters away. He then turned and joined the gangsters, who quickly retreated to the nightclub.

"Boss, it's just a cop, why are you afraid of him?" the yellow-haired man asked.

Shi Qiang turned and gave him a hard knock on the head, scolding, "What do you know? If I hadn't heard from Ah Mao that you were cornered by the police, would I have brought people to back you up? Would I have met that cop? Do you know who that cop is? He's a madman, a man who would eat human flesh. Even Boss Yan respects him and dares not touch him. What about you and me?"

Eat human flesh?

This statement made the surrounding gangsters feel nauseous, and some even gagged.

"Inspector Fei, this car..." Mo Wan Ning pointed at the GTR, worried, "Your attitude just now, won't you get a complaint?"

Fei Lun dismissed it, saying, "That guy is one of Yan Xingnan's right-hand men. If he doesn't want me to raid his place every day, he wouldn't dare to complain, even if I gave him two more chances."

"Yan Xingnan, the boss of Causeway Bay?" Mo Wan Ning looked somewhat nervous, clearly having heard of Yan Xingnan's name.

"Who else? Just a gang leader, no need to be too nervous," Fei Lun waved his hand and said, "Back to work!"

The afternoon passed quickly without any significant incidents. When it was time to finish work, Fei Lun called Mo Wan Ning and rode back to the traffic department. After handing in the day's tickets, he changed and left.

Fei Lun drove to the Grand Hotel, took the elevator straight to the restaurant, and as he stepped out of the elevator, he felt an urgent need to urinate, so he turned towards the restroom. Unexpectedly, he bumped into a woman at the door.

"Ouch!"

Fei Lun, with his steady stance, was unaffected, but the woman let out a startled cry and stumbled back several steps. Fei Lun gently steadied her, and she finally regained her balance.

The woman had a beautiful face, fair and delicate, with skin so smooth it seemed to glisten. She had a pair of bright, alluring eyes, but when she opened her mouth, she sounded like a shrew: "What's wrong with you? Can't you watch where you're going?"

Fei Lun replied calmly, "Miss, it was an accident, and both of us are responsible."

"What? You hit me and you have a reason? I can't even say a word?" the woman persisted, "Look at yourself, wearing a casual suit, stinking to high heaven, and you dare to come here for a Western meal. I don't even want to talk to you!" She then lifted her chin and walked away haughtily.

Fei Lun, not in the mood to argue with such a woman, also realized he did smell a bit, having been in a traffic police uniform all day. The traffic department didn't provide showers like the Flying Tigers, so it was normal to have a bit of a smell. He shook his head, went to the men's room, and relieved himself. After washing his face, he took out his phone and called Tina to confirm the table reservation.

Unexpectedly, when Fei Lun found the table Tina had reserved, he saw the same woman from the restroom. He frowned slightly.

"Mr. Fei, you're here?" Tina greeted him and personally pulled out the high-backed chair for him.

Fei Lun glanced at the woman, who immediately looked uncomfortable and shifted uneasily in her seat.

After Fei Lun sat down, Tina quickly introduced the others. She pointed to a middle-aged man who resembled Zhuang Sheng and said, "Mr. Fei, this is Mr. Zhuang Chen, Zhuang Boss's uncle and the business manager of Asia New Investment Company. This is..."

"Wait!" Fei Lun raised his hand to stop her, "I want to clarify one thing first. Is Asia New the one investing today?"

Tina hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Yes, Mr. Fei!"

"Then why are you here wasting my time? Can't you spend money?" Fei Lun said, displeased.

Tina, feeling flustered, leaned in and whispered in Fei Lun's ear, "The company only has 30 million Hong Kong dollars, which is not enough for this investment. Originally, Lide International Group was also planning to participate, but they changed their mind and withdrew their investment... So, please help us, Mr. Fei!"

"Lide International? Lin Jianyue's company?" Fei Lun suddenly became interested, "By the way, Tina, what are you investing in?"

At this, the middle-aged man with glasses and the woman rolled their eyes.

Tina said, "We're investing in a movie!" She then pointed to the middle-aged man with glasses, "This is the famous filmmaker, Mr. Liu Weiqiang!" She paused and then pointed to the woman, "This beautiful lady is..."

Fei Lun waved his hand, "No need to introduce her. Get to the point. What movie are you planning to invest in?" The woman wanted to get up and argue but held back due to Liu Weiqiang's presence.

Zhuang Chen succinctly said, "It's a movie about police and gangsters sending undercover agents into each other's organizations, called..."

Liu Weiqiang promptly added, "Infernal Affairs!"

Fei Lun, having seen this movie before entering the cycle space, knew it was excellent and commercially successful. He clapped his hands and said, "OK, Zhuang Sheng is my protégé, so I'll support his movie." He then took out a checkbook, signed it, and handed the check to Tina, "This is the investment. Let's see what Mr. Liu can do with it!"

Tina looked at the check and exclaimed, "30 million?!"

Liu Weiqiang rolled his eyes; the amount was a bit low but acceptable. The woman, however, looked at Fei Lun with disdain, thinking he was just showing off with 30 million Hong Kong dollars.

Zhuang Chen, knowing that Tina was not easily impressed by money, leaned in to check the check and was shocked, "Pounds?!"

30 million pounds?

Liu Weiqiang almost dropped his jaw. Investing over 300 million Hong Kong dollars in a movie was unprecedented in Hong Kong.

The woman was equally stunned.

"Tina, have a lawyer draft the investment contract," Fei Lun said calmly, "I have two requirements. First, the movie must be of the highest quality..." This deeply resonated with Liu Weiqiang, who nodded vigorously.

"Second," Fei Lun pointed at the woman, "she cannot appear in the movie."

This left Liu Weiqiang stunned, and the woman was speechless.

Tina, excited, said, "Mr. Fei, that's not a problem, but a movie doesn't need 300 million Hong Kong dollars!"

Zhuang Chen agreed, "Yes, Mr. Fei! Even if I think highly of this movie, it's uncertain whether it will gross 300 million!"

"Idiots!" Fei Lun scolded, "Why don't you make it a longer series? One hundred million per movie, three movies would be perfect!"

This struck a chord with Liu Weiqiang, who had always wanted to make a series but couldn't get funding for even one movie.

"However, the two points I mentioned must be included in the contract," Fei Lun emphasized, "Let's order food now." He then took out a card from his wallet and handed it to Tina, "Take this card to the restaurant manager and have him come see me."

Tina took the card, saw that it was neither a discount card nor a VIP card, but, following Fei Lun's order, went to find the manager without hesitation.

At this moment, Zhuang Chen excused himself and went to the restroom. Once inside, he took out his phone and made a call. After a few seconds, the call was answered, and Zhuang Chen said impatiently, "Hello, is this Mr. Lin?"

"Yes, it's me!" Lin Jianyue's voice came from the other end, "Zhuang Chen, what's the matter?"

"Mr. Lin, someone has invested 30 million pounds in Asia New. Your plan to acquire Asia New might be..."
