654: Chapter 643
The crowd around Sunan Province TV Station grew larger and larger.
Song Yun looked at the audience that had already surpassed ten thousand and furrowed his brow.
He said to Wang Hu, “With so many people and too few to maintain order at the scene, it’s tough to manage.”
“Indeed,” Wang Hu nodded.
“If there are so with ill intentions who stir up the emotions of the spectators, it can easily lead to an uncontrollable situation.”
“Have our people co over to help keep watch,” Song Yun instructed.
“How many people should co?” Wang Hu asked.
“Trustworthy ones, those who can follow orders—bring them all,” Song Yun looked around.
“Shen Yan is finally making a big move; as his friend, I should at least cover for him.”
“Got it,” Wang Hu nodded and took out his cellphone to walk to a more secluded spot.
Before long, from various entertainnt venues and clubs of Sunan City, groups of people erged.
These were generally tough characters you wouldn’t want to ss with, so with tattoos, others with dyed hair.
Gradually, these small groups of a few or a dozen people gathered and ford a considerable tide heading toward Sunan Province TV Station.
If anyone observed carefully, they would notice that each person had two red characters tattooed on their necks— “Shura”!
This was the mark of Shura Alliance mbers!
One of the rules of the Shura Alliance was that formal mbers must be registered, receiving a fixed salary each month, with the amount entirely based on their contribution to the headquarters.
For instance, the business you oversaw this month saw an increase in turnover, or the shop you managed had a generous influx of funds—these would rit rewards within the Shura Alliance.
Of course, these “rewards” sound nice, but those in the know understand that it’s similar to performance commissions in regular companies—the company always makes the lion’s share, and in Shura Alliance, the lion’s share naturally went to Song Yun and other senior mbers.
The Shura Alliance not only provided welfare and benefits to its mbers but also stipulated many of their responsibilities and obligations.
For example, if soone was unjustly bullied, and you happened to be nearby, you had an undeniable responsibility to help.
If you only look at these aspects, Shura Alliance doesn’t seem much different from other city organizations or business groups.
If that’s what you think, you’d be sorely mistaken.
The regulations of Shura Alliance also stipulate that when its mbers witness unlawful activities on the streets, such as robbery or theft, they are both obligated and have the right to intervene.
Should any issues arise, Shura Alliance has your back!
Nowadays, many people hesitate to help when they see petty thieves out of fear of retaliation.
But Shura Alliance mbers aren’t afraid—your petty theft gang, no matter how big, might have dozens or hundreds of people.
We of the Shura Alliance are Sunan’s largest organization—with far greater financial and manpower resources than these petty thieves.
If I step up to help, and you dare retaliate, then it’s simple.
All it takes is a phone call to the headquarters by a Shura Alliance mber, and a text ssage blast will alert all mbers.
Those nearby can imdiately provide support.
No matter how tough or daring the thieves, when dozens or hundreds of us show up, they’ll have no choice but to kneel and surrender.
When these rules were initially set, Song Yun faced criticism.
Many argued, “Aren’t we an organization, not a social welfare group?
Why should we bother with petty theft, and even oppose injustice?”
It appeared as though we specialized in bullying, right?
But Song Yun said, “We aspire to be an organization of the new era, not following old patterns.”
Previous organizations dominated a territory, wielded power, and made the common people too afraid to speak up, acting grandiose.
But which of those organizations lasted more than ten years?
Once you accumulate enough public grievances, a hero will co to save the day, and the common people will be grateful to them.
To put it bluntly, you are just a tool for winning public support, nothing more.
But if an organization operates like the current Shura Alliance, maintains cordial relations with the common people, and charges a small managent fee for peacekeeping, that’s not a big deal.
Moreover, the crucial point is since the Shura Alliance beca the largest organization in Sunan, Song Yun has been gradually phasing out so-called protection rackets.
Frankly, with the monthly inco from Song Yun’s various companies and venues, who needs that little bit of protection money?
It’s not worth tarnishing Shura Alliance’s reputation with the label of a criminal organization!
Any organization’s ultimate goal in developnt is to go legitimate!
And during the growth of the Shura Alliance, Song Yun has already been working toward its purification.
This is different from those organizations that only start to go legitimate after reaching a certain size.
Since Shura Alliance is growing and not yet attracting excessive attention, it’s much easier to go legitimate now than when all eyes are on you.
Song Yun’s efforts were not in vain—at least the Shura Alliance currently enjoys a decent reputation in Sunan.
Although there occasionally are rotten apples or those who genuinely wish to be hoodlums, White Tiger Hall under the Alliance quickly takes care of them.
The vitality of the Shura Alliance is not only reflected in its growth but also in its overall organizational quality.
As for the aforentioned mark of the Shura Alliance mbers, the large “Shura” characters, they represent the complete opposite of the organization’s vitality—they signify aggression!
If the Shura Alliance were just as described above, it could only be considered a decent organization, far from what one would call a major organization!
A real organization needs its own aggression, and the tattoos on the mbers’ necks consolidate their aggression to a great extent.
A single person with a tattoo isn’t much, and neither is a group of people with tattoos.
But a large group sporting the sa tattoo is quite impactful.
The basic mbers of Shura Alliance have a simple tattoo of the word “Shura” in blood-red, representing the rise of the Shura Alliance.
The motto of the organization is clear: If no one offends , I shall not offend.
But if soone offends , they shall be killed.
It’s that simple.
There’s a saying—when a tiger becos too complacent, it turns into a cat.
Song Yun understood this early on in the developnt of the Shura Alliance.
Therefore, while requiring Shura Alliance mbers to maintain good relations with the public and avoid major conflicts, they were also encouraged not to fear trouble.
After all, this is our territory, and if soone is unwise enough to provoke you, deal with the issue first.
If sothing happens, the headquarters will support you.
In the mix, who doesn’t appreciate swift justice?
Hence, on this front, Song Yun very much catered to the tastes of Shura Alliance mbers.
The “Shura” characters in blood-red beca like a dal of honor, tattooed on the neck of every mber.
