Feng Shui Secrets of the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 219 Interpreting the Fortune Telling

As expected, it only takes an extra fee.

When it comes to swindling money, Fatty Lin is a master.

Just like before, holding the divination pot, Ji Lingbo silently recited for a moment and began to shake it.

Soon, a fortune stick fell to the ground. He picked it up and read: "Occupying this house brings great fortune and unexpected wealth!"

After reading it, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Master Lin, is it still auspicious?"

"no!"

Fatty Lin looked at the fortune slip Ji Lingbo handed him and said, "It signifies great fortune and unexpected wealth. The interpretation is: If you seek something, you will get it. But things without roots cannot last long. In the evening, you should maintain harmony. If you do not meet the right time, people will gossip and you should retreat and defend yourself."

At this point, Fatty Lin paused and looked at Ji Lingbo, saying, "The core warning of this divination slip is 'How can something without roots last long?' This is the most crucial clue to the future consequences of this divination slip. It clearly points out that although windfall gains may be obtained, like a tree without roots, it is difficult to last and is prone to attracting disasters."

"Easily invites disaster!"

Ji Lingbo murmured to herself, seemingly lost in thought, and remained silent for a long while.

"Boss Ji, if you want a clearer view, you can have your birth chart analyzed!" Fatty Lin said.

"I won't have my birth chart analyzed!"

Ji Lingbo shook her head, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I'm too much of a believer in fate, and precisely because of that, I never have my birth chart checked!"

"Manager Ji, are you afraid we'll reveal your birth date and time?" Fatty Lin narrowed his eyes.

"It's not fear!"

Ji Lingbo smiled and said, "I just don't want to take any risks!"

"Manager Ji, you're insulting my professional ethics!"

Fatty Lin feigned anger, "I entered this business at fifteen, and I've been doing it for almost fifteen years now. I've never revealed a single client's birth chart!"

"Master Lin, please don't be angry!"

Seeing this, Ji Lingbo quickly put on a smile and looked at me and Long Nier, especially Long Nier, his gaze lingering on her face for a moment longer.

You could tell that there was a hint of fear in his eyes when he looked at Long Nier.

I immediately realized that his apologetic smile wasn't because we two brothers were so great, but because he was afraid of offending Long Nier, who hadn't said a word since he walked in.

Everyone in Hong Kong knows that Lung Ni-er is skilled in using witchcraft.

Rong Ge, that big mouth, ever since he reconciled with us, whenever he goes out drinking and gets drunk, he starts bragging about how amazing Long Nier is.

He even took pride in having been bewitched by Long Nier, much like how gangsters take pride in having scars on their bodies.

Besides Brother Rong, the legend of Long Nier has been going on at the Hong Kong Sanatorium & Hospital.

Many medical staff witnessed Long Nier's use of Gu poison to revive Jiang Liangan.

What kind of place is Hong Kong Sanatorium & Hospital? It's a gathering place for the Hong Kong elite.

In Hong Kong Island, you can't afford to live in the Hong Kong Sanatorium & Hospital unless you have tens of millions in assets.

With the combined promotion from Brother Rong and the Hong Kong Sanatorium & Hospital, Long Nier's reputation in the industry is no less than mine and Fatty Lin's, and is even more mysterious and fearsome.

Judging from Ji Lingbo's expression, she must know about Long Nier's matter.

After being glanced at a couple more times by Ji Lingbo, Long Nier subconsciously raised an eyebrow and looked at him in return.

Upon seeing this, Ji Lingbo's eye twitched noticeably, and he said, "Master Lin, that's not what I meant. It's just that my situation is too complicated!"

"Then tell me, what kind of magic is it?" Fatty Lin said with a forced smile.

"Master Lin, I have a very clear understanding of myself. I know what I'm doing, and I also know what my future will be!"

Ji Lingbo spoke slowly.

"Hmm, and then?" Fatty Lin asked.

"Master Lin, before coming here, I still held onto a sliver of hope, but after you interpreted my fortune, I feel much more at ease!"

Ji Lingbo laughed.

"Being a junket operator is like living on a knife's edge!"

"In this line of work, if you're on a small scale, you could be killed over money at any time and end up dead in the street; if you're on a big scale, you're just a front man, someone's scapegoat, to be thrown out when the time is right!"

"Since nothing I do will end well, why don't I take a gamble and go for something bigger?"

At this point, a hint of madness appeared in Ji Lingbo's eyes.

"So you want to get into finance?" I thought of his current position as the CEO of Tianxing International.

"right!"

Ji Lingbo nodded and said, "They're all just gloves, so why wouldn't I choose the one with the highest profit? Besides, gambling at the casino is gambling, but isn't playing finance and trading stocks also gambling? There's no difference!"

"A while ago, I hooked up with Boss Che. Boss Che and I have very similar experiences. Neither of us had much education, but we're both willing to sacrifice ourselves for the future and our descendants!"

"I see it very clearly. For peasants like us to stand on equal footing with those who descend from heaven, there's no other way but to fight tooth and nail and disregard our own humanity. Even then, not everyone has that opportunity!"

"Later, I met Boss Xiao. I gave him one million yuan and became his apprentice. He neither agreed nor disagreed. I understand what he meant!"

"Boss Che and Boss Xiao are both big shots!" Fatty Lin said thoughtfully.

"hehe!"

Ji Lingbo gave a strange smile and said, "To put it bluntly, they're just tools pushed to the forefront, only they started from a higher point than me!"

"Boss Xiao took a liking to me because of Boss Che's recommendation. Boss Che took a liking to me not only because we had similar experiences, but more importantly, because he saw my ambition and a certain quality we shared!"

"What does this have to do with the financial license you have?" Fatty Lin asked.

"This financial license wasn't wanted by Boss Che or Boss Xiao, but by Boss Lai!" Ji Lingbo said slowly.

"Boss? Who wants to be the boss?" I asked.

"Come on, Mr. Lai!" Ji Lingbo said.

"You hooked up with him?" I suddenly realized who this person was.

Speaking of which, I know many of these bosses in financial institutions.

Before coming to Hong Kong Island, Third Master took me to meet many of these Gods of Wealth.

These gods of wealth are both lazy and playful; I've given them a lot of acupuncture.

They have different preferences, but they all have one thing in common: they like intellectual subjects, and some of them especially love TV hosts.

"Boss Che's father-in-law is in this field and has a wide network of connections. It's easy for him to use his father-in-law's name to get to know people in the industry!" Ji Lingbo said.

"I know exactly what the boss wants to do. This financial license I have is a springboard for him. With this license, he can do a lot of things!"

"Whether it's transferring benefits, providing internal guarantees for external loans, or engaging in insider trading, it's all very easy!"

He paused, then looked at us and said, "Master Lin, do you know what they promised me?"

"What?" Fatty Lin asked.

"Five hundred million, at least five hundred million!"

Ji Lingbo spread her arms and gestured to us.
