Chapter 45 Introduction to Hong Kong Associations

"Hehe, it's amazing that Brother Tiancheng will be repeated!" Shanshan's avatar displayed by the light and shadow can clearly see the gloating expression: "Who told you to stay in Kyoto for so long, and you didn't come to see me for the next 2 months, I thought I was hooked by a vixen." With a pout, his bright and bright eyes flashed and flashed, full of infinite temptation, and the words he said made people think about it.

Luo Tiancheng looked at Shanshan's appearance, and his heart fluttered, this little girl is only 12 years old, and she knows how to seduce people, if she is next to herself, she will definitely be able to hug her and kiss her fiercely, and she can't help but laugh: "You are still laughing, I can't go back to China if I graduate early, this will have to be delayed for another year, oops, it turns out that Shanshan doesn't want me to come back." ”

"Where! ^I hope Brother Tiancheng comes back every day! When Shanshan heard that she would have to delay her return to China for a year, she immediately jumped out of bed and prepared to express her dissatisfaction.

"Oh no, Dad is here, I'm hanging!" Shanshan heard footsteps in her ears, and she hung up the phone quickly. For so many years, Shanshan's intelligent insect brain has not been discovered, with the richness of life experience, Shanshan knows that Luo Tiancheng's brother has given her extraordinary things, and she hasn't seen other people talking with brick-like mobile phones now! This can directly show the 3D light projection of the other person's character, as if a real person is around you, and can also do computing functions to help you learn.

There are still many functions of the intelligent worm brain that have not been opened, such as virtual universe, virtual planet, virtual learning system, remote sensing function, etc., for Shanshan, the existing functions alone are enough. Shanshan silently took all this to heart...... Shocking things entering society will definitely not be a good thing for Brother Tiancheng......

Shanshan's light and shadow avatar disappeared in front of him, Luo Tiancheng remembered the arrangement of the school's summer vacation time, it was temporarily inconvenient to enter in China, and Luo Xingchen was dealing with things in China, well! I went to Hong Kong to see the situation, I haven't been to Hong Kong once, Luo Xingyi and others have developed smoothly in Hong Kong, and I just took this time to meet a few famous actors and directors in later generations, and even get in touch with several major gangs.

In Hong Kong, gangsters are collectively known as "triads".

During the Qianlong period, the Tiandihui (Hongmen) organization basically collapsed and went underground.

In the thirties of the 19th century, from the border of Guangxi to Guangzhou (including Wuzhou, Zhaoqing and Foshan), mutual insurance non-governmental organizations composed of regimental training, town militias and villagers emerged, all claiming to be the children of Hongmen. After the Opium War, the minds of the people in the Pearl River system changed, and a number of non-governmental Hongmen armed forces formed an anti-government group "Triad" and launched the "Hongbing Uprising" in Liangguang.

Triads in different regions do not belong to each other, and their history is also different. Based on the needs of life, a situation has been formed in which various associations protect themselves, and associations with large capabilities collect local protection fees, including all entertainment venues, such as theaters, dog rings, cricket fighting halls, gambling halls, sparrow houses, brothels, and large tobacco houses.

As early as the Daoguang period, the British government in Hong Kong issued a decree at the request of the Qing Dynasty to suppress triads and other secret associations to ban the activities of encirclement and suppression of triads.

After World War II, triads evolved into the collective name of Hong Kong's traditional Jianghu secret societies, with more than 500,000 members in Hong Kong. Today, it is an offence in Hong Kong to claim to be a triad member, to be a triad member, and to use the name of a triad organization, with a maximum penalty of seven years' imprisonment and a fine of HK$250,000.

Worldwide, "triads" refer to Chinese triad organizations.

After "World War II".

As soon as the war ended, Hong Kong was in ruins, and the government had no time to take care of the triad, and the triad began to recruit troops. After the scramble, the gangs roughly demarcated the territory under their control.

Kowloon:

"Peace and Happiness" - control of the Mong Kok area

"Wo Sheng He" - to control the area north of Pei Ho Street in Sham Shui Po

"Wo Shengyi" - to control the Yau Ma Tei area north of Jordan Road

"United English News Agency" - control Guanchong to the Tsim Sha Tsui area

"Fu Yi Hing" - To Kwa Wan to Kowloon City area

For Hong Kong:

"Singular meaning" - Wan Chai area

"Harmony Map" – Central area

"Heshengtang" - Sai Ying Pun to Pokfulam area

"New Ngee An" - Causeway Bay to Shau Kei Wan area

"Tong San He" - part of Wan Chai and part of Sai Wan

This form of an organization controlling an area is called a "topi". As the power of the gang rises and falls, its territory expands or shrinks accordingly. This situation remained until about 1950.

In the spring of 1949, the GM Party was in general swing on the mainland. Mao Renfeng, the head of the military command, made a comeback in the future and instructed his subordinates to contact the Hongmen organizations in Guangzhou.

Ge Zhaohuang, who was the commander of the 93rd Division of the GM Party, was ordered to set up "Hongfa Mountain" in Guangzhou, rebuild the "Inner Eight Halls", and rename the "Great Hongshan" in Nanning to "Hongfa Mountain", which was the predecessor of the "14 K". Fourteen refers to the birthplace of FourteenK - No. 14 Baohua Road, Guangzhou; "K" is the initials of the GM Party (KuoMinTang).

On the eve of the liberation of Guangzhou, Ge Zhaohuang fled to Hong Kong with the incense owners and henchmen, and soon went to Taiwan to "return to the team", and the rest of the people became the founding patriarch of the "14K".

At the beginning of the establishment of the "14 Ks" in Hong Kong, they regarded themselves as orthodox as "Hongmen" and openly admitted their allegiance to the GM Party, which had strong political overtones, and thus was incompatible with local gangsters. The former thinks that "it is not a raptor but a river", while the latter emphasizes that "a strong dragon is difficult to suppress the head snake".

From 1960 to 1990, the 14K had 200,000 members, becoming one of the three major Chinese gangs in the world, and was once considered the "world's largest gang".

In the early 70s, 14K expanded to Chinatowns in Europe and the United States and Southeast Asia. The leader of the "Chao Gang", a major faction in Taiwan's underworld, is a member of the "14K"; Japan discovered the "14 Klux" organization after 1973; The strongest of the gangs in Macau is also the "14 K" organization.

After the death of the leading boss Ge Zhaohuang in 1953, the gang has been torn apart. After Ge Zhaohuang's death, he was succeeded by his son Ge Zhixiong, and when Ge Zhixiong went to Taiwan, he was received by Chen Cheng, the "vice president" of the Republic of China, and Chen Cheng also awarded him a medal. Ge Zhixiong is actually only a spiritual leader, and the 36 "word piles" have long been in their own hands, and no official boss election has been held.

Big Circle

The so-called "big circle" refers to criminals who come to Hong Kong from the mainland.

Strictly speaking, "Big Circle" is not a triad organization in Hong Kong, because it has no formal organization, no clear rules and regulations, and no unanimous culture. This name is a joking name for people in Hong Kong's triad circle and the media.

Since the 70s of the last century, some young people from the mainland who have smuggled into the country do not have Hong Kong resident identity cards, and it is difficult for them to find a job, do business, or study. Most of these youngsters have experience in factional struggles during the Red Guards' "civilian, offensive and military" struggles, and when they engage in illegal activities, they are not inferior to the "Tuodi" figures, and their viciousness is even worse.

Hong Kong gangsters don't dare to underestimate them either. As a result, the "Big Circle" has a very delicate relationship with the local underworld. On the one hand, the "Big Circle" committed crimes fiercely and unruly, disrupting the "peace" of the underworld, and local gangs would assist the police in cracking down on the "Big Circle" under certain circumstances. On the other hand, because the "big circles" are very "bad" (Cantonese, don't die), local gangs will also use the "big circles" to do things that they are not willing to take risks. The relationship between them is not only fighting, but also colluding with each other and taking advantage of each other.
