Found myself here after watching the insider episode. I must say the interview/storytelling is so much better in Cantonese. Good thing is the subs are on point too. Bighead's story is really wild and entertaining. Mike sounded a little soft. Can't wait to hear more from you guys
these stories about sun yee on will always be entertaining.... i remember the last time i was in HK, my dad was telling me he had lunch a few days before i got there with Sun Yee On "dai-lo" To Luen Shun (杜聯順), who is/was the other Tiger of Tsim Sha Tsui in the 80s/90s.
_"Sun Yee On (Chinese: 新義安), or the New Righteousness and Peace Commercial and Industrial Guild, is one of the leading triads in Hong Kong and China. It has more than 25,000 members worldwide. It is also believed to be active in the UK, the United States, France and Belgium."_ _"Founded: 1919; 104 years ago"_
Big head is such a scholarly & charismatic guy as much as he is a street kid. No wonder he rose through the ranks in HK & NY! I’d like to hear Mike’s experiences as a gang member and what led him to the transformation to NYPD and his time on the force. It seems Mike is very fluent in canto too.
The ABCs who are 45 to 60 years old were pretty much fluent in Cantonese because it was the height of Cantonese speaking at the time. Hell... A lot of us are fluent in Mandarin as well. Hanging out with Taiwanese and Fujianese made me fluent in Mandarin as well.
@@hiddendrgn218 abc here born in late 90’s. Taishanese speaker here! Our dialect is slowly dying. The new generation only speaks English and Cantonese if they learn as a kid. I’m trying to teach as much as I can to my son at the moment.
@@hiddendrgn218 in the 70s before TVB series vhs tapes were popularized, taishanese was literally the main language. I'm not even from taishan and I can speak it fluently when needed just because that's what the language was in the 70s.
@@babyshaya hi I just checked out one of her videos with her friend teaching taishanese. Yup it’s accurate but my family is actually from Kaiping or Hoi Ping in canto. Not sure if you heard of it before. The accent and pronunciation is a bit more easier to understand.
When an entertainer comes to town, Uncle's job was to take them to the fcukshop. I did the same thing. The only difference is that the people I brought to the fcukshop were not entertainers.
his eldest half-brother Heung Wah-Yim (向華炎) became the 2nd dragon head because their dad Heung Chin, the founder of SYO, was exiled to taiwan in the 50s. right now i think Wah-Yim's son Heung Jin Wai (向展偉) is the 3rd dragon head.
@18:05 back in the days. my dad would say, "those playing as a gangster in the movie are really gangsters, thats why they fit the role so well". What i admire watching is these dai lo and triads actors playing silly and goofy roles.
37:32 he said "kai G" 😂😂😂😂 That's how you know he's old school. Funny we had a conversation on that word not too long ago 😂😂😂😂 I'm positive we'll hear it a lot more in future interviews. Keep up the great work. Seriously this shit is gold 🪙
May I request a video of more Sun Yee On 426 red pole stories from Hong Kong? For example, does Big Head know Tsim Sha Tsui Dai Lo ‘Fei Lung’ (Flying Dragon), or even Lee Tai Lung, etc?
@@jimmytsui9329 你的真人經驗黑社會故事好好聽!can you also please name drop the HK celebrities you talked about those are pure gold LOL as some as so long ago we may not know or guess who they are but we all grew up watching hk movies back then too 😂 also love your interviews and stories very entertaining just came across your channel all the way from australia too 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 way to go guys! Can’t wait for more awesome stories! 👍🏼
I know Tai Long. When I was in Hong Kong, he was still the bottom member. He was not a 426 yet. I had a cousin who followed him. I told Tai Long not to take my cousin out again.
36:13 being a 49 literal meaning in Chinese "dead dog" but the vernacular is like "stupid dog" meaning you're just a dog because you're the lowest rank. Anyone who's anyone who's played pai gow, hit a 49 and was initiated into a gang would always say something silly like "chore yup Hung moon 49 jai" When you're first initiated into the gang, you're a little dead dog. I know it's silly but that's how we were 😂
Your videos are my new favorite thing on youtube, I grew up in the Bay Area and I’ve been hearing stories about SF Chinatown my whole life from my dad and grandfather. Would you be able to have anyone from SF talk about their experiences?
No matter how romantic or exciting the stories and lores of these gangsters we all need to remember that, at the end of the day, they are ruthless predators who don't hesitate to gang rape a woman And this is true for all kinds of gangsters. Not just Chinese ones.
I can not represent all members of the underworld, but I can say that none of the people who were with me at the time would do such a thing as gang rape and rape because I strictly control my subordinates. if I find out they will be severely punished, so I will never let this kind of thing happen,
@@jimmytsui9329 I think that’s the difference between gang members in the 80’s and 90’s compared to early 2000’s and later - it’s seems to be a massive change in attitude and morals during the early 2000’s, a lot of people think they are above the law but rape especially publicly known about rape cases usually has a higher success rate in detention bc if proven true they are dealt with the law and the public which many of them haven’t experienced before. The structures that many of these early 80’s and 90’s gangs have unfortunately been left behind. But that does not mean rape didn’t happen during these times they probably did but probably lead to death or extreme silencing techniques. Please let me know if I’m wrong in my thinking.
Great stories about the dark HK Hollywood scene. Can you do an interview about the ruthless Chinatown van and bus wars? How it started and the stories that lead to the almost death of the Chinatown bus wars.
Did you guys know any members or Dai Lo that had Chaozhou/Teochew background?And if you did what was their personality like ? were they loyal or well respected ?I heard the founder of the Sun Ye On came from Chaozhou? Love your channel keep the videos going !
Thanks for the great content as always. He was referring to 'lo San' is that just a term used to describe another fellow gang member? I.e American lo san
Lo San is「老新」is a street slang for the Sun Yee On 「新義安」triad group. Mei Gwok Lo San「美國老新」means Tung On or American SYO. Bighead also calls the Feds “Lo Luen”「老聯」. Slang as well.
Very insightful and entertaining stories. My wild guess on the famous actor/singer who was recognized by the ladies was ALan and his buddy was Eric ( actor). As for the 天后 who is no longer around… I think most of us would guess the same person, initial A M. Anyone with other guess
I know its hard for talking alive ppl , but I would like to hear more story about Dai Lo in hong kong , such as 'ghost tim' , 'sai b' , 'tai lon ', 'tun mun fai kit' .And other gang such as 'jai jai' in yuan long ,' etb' , '何澤' , '黐線勇' . And Big Head's Ferrari .
You guys like listening to the stories of the Hong Kong Triad. If we can get over Ten Thousand like or Subscribers, I will tell you more about these people you asked for.
@@jimmytsui9329 That would be great! I am from HK, I like these stories! I also want to know more about the old-timer Dai Lo that not many people know about- Crazy Kai or 黐線佳
What year was T.O established in Chinatown and how difficult was it to establish the foundation? Why didn’t T.O change their name to distinguish the street gang from the tong?
I sugguest that you add a chinese title so more people can find your videos. I am sure a lot of chinese/hong kong people would like to listen to these stories.
I decided to quit my gangster life. I got shot five times, and after that, I said, "No more." I got sick and tired of that, because I'm getting old. The way I think is different. So I want to return to my normal life, so I quit. I know the person who shot me, but I don't know why he shot me at that time. Afterward, I found out. Because my soldier, under me, people under me shot their member two weeks ago. So they know I'm the general of them. So he shot me. At that time, I was at home, and I ran out of cigarettes. So I have to go down and try to buy a cigarette in the grocery. When I closed my driver's-side door and I check out the side mirror, I saw someone came out from a car behind, and then he started to shoot. And then the ambulance come, like, after at least 15 minutes, as I remember. They brought me to the Elmhurst Hospital, and they do a surgery, and then the doctor come by and showed me all the bullets and tell me that, "We took four bullets out, and there's still a bullet inside your body." So I asked him, "Why don't you just take the last one out?" And he was telling me that, "Because that bullet is running into your bone, so that bullet's going to stay there forever." That's what the doctor says. What do I have to do to leave? Actually, nothing. I just tell my soldiers. Because I have couple of soldiers, who control all the kids already. I just tell them that, starting now, all the street money, the gambling house money, whatever, I'm going to give up everything. You guys take care of the under-level people, and anything happens, you don't have to ask me. Even though after I left, I start working, and the FBI come to me, ask me questions. I say, "I don't know nothing. I left already." In the '90s, the FBI, all the leaders, all the gangsters got arrested and thrown in the prison.
@@chinatowngangstories he only dropped 1 name 大傻… tell him to drop more names..just by guessing we won’t know who he’s really talking about.. but even HK knows the WC in SF are crazy. I’ve seen it in a Stephen chow gangster movie 1989 or 1990.

is Charles Heung (向华强) or one of his brothers the dragon head of Sun Yee On?
his eldest half-brother Heung Wah-Yim (向華炎) became the 2nd dragon head because their dad Heung Chin, the founder of SYO, was exiled to taiwan in the 50s.

Anyone else confused by the tic tac sum to 15 thing?😅😂 How does it add to 15 in all directions ?
how about story about anita mui being slap by gangster and brning safe by sun ye on 426 chen yau sing that led to chen yau sing being killed in macau
Bighead talks about that in Cantonese. Waiting to have it translated with English subtitles. If I’m not mistaken, he was in HK at the time.
What was big heads day to day life back then as a gangster?
