The Hong Kong underworld movies we watched when we were young actually describe most of the Hong Kong stories from the 1960s to the 1970s, but they are just fashioned from the 1990s.

In the past 40 years, it was only a matter of earning millions in a minute. Why be a young and dandy

Hong Kong indeed in the 1960s and 1970s, underworld was rampant, pornography, gambling, drugs, extortion, collection of protection fees, grab territory, and fighting each other. Do you know why?

answers are really interesting to say, because before 1974, Hong Kong police, led by Hong Kong Superintendent Peter Fitzroy Godber (British), widely accepted bribes from Hong Kong underworld, and acted as a protective umbrella for the underworld . Yes, before 1974, the police circle in Hong Kong was actually very dark and corrupt.

Corrupt police chief who acted as a umbrella for the gangster during his tenure as a corrupt police officer, Gebo, who served as a umbrella for protection of the underworld during his tenure. However, in 1974, British colonists established the " Independent Commission Against Corruption " in Hong Kong, and began to crack down on it. A group of bad police officers, including Gebo, so afterwards, Hong Kong police officers began to Everyone was in danger of . Why? Because many police officers are not clean, since the ICAC and the arrest of "big tigers" such as Ge Bo, Hong Kong police have begun to worry that their scandal will be found sooner or later. Everyone can't sleep or eat .

Next, do you know what happened? The answer is: On October 28, 1977, the Hong Kong police finally couldn't hold it in. On that day, thousands of Hong Kong police and their families took to the streets for a walk, besieged the ICAC and injured the office staff of the ICAC. This is the famous "1977 Police Integrity Conflict" in Hong Kong's history.

977 Police intact conflict, a large number of police besieged the ICAC: You don’t let me live, I don’t let you live

The conflict at that time was getting bigger and bigger, what should I do? These thousands of policemen have a unclear history with the Hong Kong underworld. If they are arrested, there will be almost no police in Hong Kong. But if they are not arrested, there will be no way to discuss the prosperity and stability of Hong Kong.

977 Police Integrity Conflict, the police rushed into the Independent Commission Against Corruption Office and attacked the investigator

After careful consideration, the then Hong Kong Governor Murray MacLehose decided to take a compromise path: Taking January 1, 1977 as the boundary, did not blame in the past, but this is only once, no example is given. If you commit again in the future, you will never forgive me and do everything. In this way, the Hong Kong police force will be stabilized.

Mi Lihao: I ask you a difficult question. If you find that your subordinates are greedy, what should you do?

Then these pardoned Hong Kong police will not "dead" in the crisis, learn from the lessons, decided to start from the new . They told the underworld they protected: In the future, I can't protect you anymore. Times have changed. I suggest you wash your hands and be a good person from now on.

lost the police as a protective umbrella, and the underworld in Hong Kong gradually lost their living space. However, they should not die. At this time, a great thing happened to .

This great thing is: in the 1980s, The economy flourished in Hong Kong, , the film industry, real estate industry, record industry, garment industry, catering industry, transportation industry... All walks of life are booming, gold is everywhere, and there are opportunities to make money everywhere. The Hong Kong underworld, who just washed his hands, discovered something that is still incredible to say: legal money is actually better than illegal money!

Yes, Hong Kong happened to have an economic boom, and gold was everywhere. The Hong Kong underworld, who had just washed his hands, discovered that it turned out that real estate speculation, filming movies, driving truck companies to do transportation, and all walks of life made money very quickly. Therefore, a large number of underworlds entered these legal industries.

It is worth mentioning that it is the Hong Kong entertainment industry. Yes, some netizens have been asking why the Hong Kong entertainment industry has something to do with the underworld? In fact, the answer is not mysterious: because there are some gangsters who wash their hands, their funds have flowed into the entertainment industry. In other words, many Hong Kong gangsters have transformed into bosses, shareholders, and practitioners of film companies, production companies, brokerage companies, record companies, and distribution companies.

Simply put, in the past forty years, the Hong Kong underworld has gradually been whitewashed in the two environments where law enforcement is getting stricter in Hong Kong, but at the same time, it is becoming easier to make money legally. After the whitewashed underworld, they are all over all walks of life in Hong Kong today. They are nominally gang members, but in fact, many of their businesses are legal, so they also call themselves businessmen and usually show themselves as good people.

Not only is the case with the big guys, but many gangsters, Ronaldinho rarely engage in secret robbery and extortion. These gangsterho is more common, and they open a small stall in a certain industry market. For example, Lao Feng, I know a young man, who is a Hong Kong gangster. He opens a stall in a computer city in Hong Kong, selling mobile phones, computers, USB flash drives and other things. Occasionally, he also sells fakes, such as second-hand refurbished Samsung mobile phones (liarly said it is a new phone), etc. However, this guy is very polite to people. He can't tell that he is a gangster because of his appearance, but everyone who is familiar with him knows that he is "a gang member."

There is also a classic underworld business, which still exists in Hong Kong, called "watching the scene", which means being a security guard for nightclubs, casinos and other places. However, they all wear black suits and do not call themselves underworld to customers. For example, a group of tourists in a nightclub in Mong Kok drank, sang songs, hugged the lady, but did not pay the bill and wanted to leave, then a group of underworld in black suits would surround you. However, at this time, they did not call themselves underworld, but called themselves "the security guard of this commercial building". In other words, the underworld business is still in Hong Kong, but most of them are covered with legal cloaks.
