Introduction:
20 years ago, I just watched the Hong Kong " Young and Dangerous " series of movies and learned about Chen Haonan , Shan Ji, Da Tian Er , Xiaoshu, Da Fei ...
Of course, I also knew about Causeway Bay , Repulse Bay , Central, Temple Street , Lan Kwai Fong , Nathan Road and other Hong Kong place names.
happened to be that year, and I went to Hong Kong for a trip. At that time, there were not many people speaking Mandarin well in Hong Kong, but they were still relatively friendly to tourists from mainland China.
Out of my preference for the movie "Young and Dangerous", I naturally wanted to go to Causeway Bay; after all, in the movie, Chen Haonan claims to be the "leader of Causeway Bay".

In a small restaurant in Causeway Bay, I met a boss who was particularly chatty, and naturally got involved in topics related to "Young and Dangerous" - for example, I asked the boss very seriously: Are there any underworlds like Chen Haonan and Shan Ji to collect your protection fees?
boss laughed: Chen Haonan? Chen Haonan's age really comes to me and wants to call me uncle!
The boss asked me in turn: Do you know the four taboos of the Hong Kong underworld?

The boss said: The first of the four taboos in the Hong Kong underworld is "Gou Ersao". I actually know the
. The reason is that the "Gou Ersao" is often used by Hong Kong underworld movies to play plots; people who watch many similar movies should have an impression.
The so-called "Gou Ersao" means that people in the same gang in the underworld cannot hook up with the wife, girlfriend or mistress of the gang brothers.
The boss said that those who are stubborn in the Tao are more obsessed with this taboo. The reason is that if you really do something like "Gou Ersao", on the one hand, you will be extremely looked down upon by the people in the entire gang; on the other hand, you will be punished by gang rules and family laws.
I have to say that the boss’s knowledge is really not low, because he also added this passage: This article must be held to the death, otherwise if it is committed once, it means a reshuffle of a certain gang, which is a series of fighting and killing. If a gang has too many internal conflicts, it will soon lose its territory and competitiveness.
I nodded repeatedly and thought to myself: This is why I like to chat with locals when I travel. If you treat the people at the destination as a book, then chatting with them is equivalent to "opening is beneficial." Stills from the movie

said: The second of the four taboos in the Hong Kong underworld is "washing the horse threshold". I have never heard of
, and I don’t seem to have seen it in the movie, so I can’t understand it completely.
You know, if the person who gives you a tragedy looks confused when he sees you, he will definitely be very excited! The boss started to circle me: I have code words on the road, do you know what "horse threshold" means?
I shook my head.
boss said: "Horse Threshold" is actually a kiln, and "Horse Threshold" means that people within the gang stole their own money from within the gang. If you violate this, you will be very miserable. This is called being fucked inside and out. At the least, you can buy it, and at the worst, you can lose your life.
I asked: What about stealing money from other gangs? The boss of
laughed: That's called ability! Brothers invite you to drink.

The boss said: The third of the four taboos in the Hong Kong underworld is to "wear red shoes". The
article is easy to understand literally, it is "no red shoes are allowed"; as for the reason, I don't know. The boss of
said: There are two different explanations for "wearing red shoes", both of which are their own ways.
The first meaning is that in ancient times, women always wear red clothes and red shoes when they get married, and "red shoes" here represent "women"; and "wearing red shoes" means "cuckold the brothers in the gang." For example, if the maid seduces another person's wife, suddenly the brothers in the gang go home. The maid is panicked and hurriedly put on the woman's red shoes and run away. Later, it was extended to "the person who betrays his brothers."
The second meaning is that everyone worships Guan Gong , but the underworld worshipped Guan Erye wore black shoes, and the police worshipped Guan Erye wore red shoes. To say that a maid who is a man who is "wearing red shoes" means that you are an undercover police officer and a traitor. Therefore, it is still extended to be "the person who betrays his brothers."
Well, don’t say it. The boss talked to me about this, which made me feel that it is not only quite technical, but also more and more interesting!

boss said: The fourth of the four taboos in the Hong Kong underworld is to "kill white powder". The
item is simple, it’s just taking drugs!
What I am confused about is: Since many Hong Kong underworlds in the movies are selling drugs, why are they not allowed to "kill white powder"?
The boss's explanation still has enough technical content: drinking is easy to mislead things, let alone taking drugs? Besides, people who are addicted to drugs have the least bottom line. Not only can they sell their houses and betray themselves, but they can sell their gangs every minute. If you were the boss, would you be afraid?
Hong Kong Street
Conclusion:
After so many years, the four taboos the boss of Causeway Bay still impressed me.
Of course, I still don’t know if the four taboos my boss mentioned are the real "unspoken rules" of the Hong Kong underworld.
or is this the so-called "there is also a way to steal"?
But even if you have the truth, there is nothing to like about "stealing".
So, the "Young and Dangerous" series of movies is just a look, don't take it seriously, let alone follow it.
