Change values of a model field at __init__.py

Question

I am trying to update all records of a table during the initialization of my module but I cannot figure out how to do it. I have read something about monkey patch and tried to implement it but not sure if it fits my case. What I want to do now is to get all the records of a certain database table during the initialization of the module itself and eventually make some changes to each one of them.

You can use pre_init_hook  defined in odoo __manifest__.py file and
'pre_init_hook': 'pre_init_hook', and define method in __init__.py file and write update code accordingly
