How it's used

This term is an obscure historical reference rather than a common street name for the triad. Most locals today simply use 14K, and many younger people might not even recognize the term 洪發山 unless they have an interest in local history or triad lore. It is strictly a proper noun used to identify the organization's alleged full name.
