The Thunder
Zhao Jialiang wouldn’t make such mistake.
There’s only one possibility that
Liu Haoyu switched boat.
Please ask the French police to investigate carefully.
I will ask them to keep looking into it.
Ok.
Police! Police! Police!
Get out! Show me your hands!
Show me your hands! Get out!
Come on out! Hurry!
Show me your hands!
Stop! Don’t move!
Freeze! Drop your weapon!
Drop your weapon!
Alright! Alright!
Are you Nelson Cook?
I am.
Where will Black Dragon Logistics receive the merchandises?
Give me the time and location!
The merchandises arrived.
Did he switch the boat?
He did. He even changed the port.
No worry!
From now on, these shipments will
have nothing to do with your Yuanping.
Is this the transfer location?
Yes.
Are you sure?
We changed the location to here.
That’s all I know.
It’s confirmed.
Police! Police are here!
Get the gun! Get the gun!
Your horse is awesome!
Watch out!
Boss!
On the ground! On the ground! On the ground!
Stop!
Show me your hands!
You win!
Win by a nose!
Hey, bro.
You own all these shops.
Thank you for supporting my business all the time!
We are on the same team. Don’t mention it!
Cheers!
Thank you! Thank you!
Thank you!
French Anti-Illegal Drug Trade Administration
and the National Police jointly announced that
they broke up a large drug cartel
under anonymous tip.
Three drug dealers were shot dead.
The head of the group, Nelson Cook,
got caught in downtown Paris.
The police have seized a large quantity of high purity meth
and arrested Nelson Cook.
Bro.
The police did us a favor.
From now on,
I will take over the business
in France, even the entire Europe!
Liu Haoyu’s access is cut now.
When will your merchandises arrive?
Don’t worry about that.
Just wait for my good news.
Recently,
the French police have seized a large quantity of meth
and killed several drug traffickers.
The total amount of the seized meth is 1.5 tons.
It is reported that the company involved
is a Chinese-owned transportation company.
He Ruilong, the CEO of the company,
has been arrested by the police.
He Ruilong, the CEO of the company,
has been arrested by the police.
He Ruilong is from Hongkong.
Here’s the live report from France.
The French police just intercepted
the cargo ship of Black Dragon Logistics.
We found 1.5 tons of meth
in a secret room downstairs.
The drugs were shipped from Guangdong, China.
We arrested three drug traffickers.
The rest have been killed.
Li Weimin.
You and your informant made this happen, didn’t you?
Well done!
Good job!
Happy to work with you!
The goods of this batch have been taken care of.
But we didn’t get the evidence of Liu Haoyu’s drug trafficking.
Neither did we find out
who shipped the goods from Dongshan.
There’s still a lot to do.
Do you need my help?
We failed in
the mission “5.13”.
Fortunately, we made some progress
from the downstream side.
The French police once seized
some drugs
and suspected that they
came from Longping and Dongshan of our province.
So, we think that
the drugs probably were shipped and sold
by the following means.
First, with the excuse of
shipping electronic goods to France,
Huang Dacheng’s Hongkong Rongchang Co. loaded the drugs
on Yuanping Ship,
which is owned by Liu Haoyu’s Hongkong Haoyu Group.
Then,
the drugs were received at the port and sold
by Black Dragon Logistics Company,
which is owned by Song Qian and He Ruilong.
Unfortunately,
during the shipping,
Liu Haoyu got suspicious
and transferred the drugs.
The employees hired by Black Dragon Logistics Company
to ship the drugs
have all been killed by the French police.
So far,
we don’t have any evidence to prove that
Yuanping Ship that’s owned by
Liu Haoyu’s Hongkong Haoyu Group
has anything to do
with the drugs within our province.
Do you think the operation in France this time
would impact on the drug control
in Dongshan?
Chief Wang.
I think drug trafficking
is a business per se.
If Dongshan
is the upstream of the entire drug distribution network,
and once the downstream
sales access gets cut and the capital chain is broken,
it’ll affect the upstream.
The upstream will panic
and make mistakes.
So, we can only
wait till they make mistakes?
No.
If Dongshan is the upstream of the drug cartel,
it will certainly look for sales channels
and build up its sales network again.
This will be
the best time for us to send our men in their organization.
But
our informant
has failed once.
Now it’s different.
Actually, my informant has got
the secret key for the dark net
and released the request for goods on it.
The bait is ready.
Now we are waiting for the big fish to bite.
Sounds like your informant is very capable.
Is he reliable?
I trust him
like I trust myself.
Hello.
You just won’t leave me alone.
I can’t even get a break from you.
When we succeed,
you can take as many breaks as you want.
Jialing.
The drug production business in Dongshan
is thriving.
But if something happens to the market
and the money source is cut,
it’ll cause a chaos.
This is our best time to make a move.
We must seize this opportunity.
I’ve made a promise at the meeting with the provincial leadership.
You got a blank check again
before asking for my opinion.
Because I trust you!
You can save the sweet talk for others.
Hey.
Everything’s going as planned so far.
Don’t worry.
How’s Li Fei?
He’ll be free soon.
I’m used to a life full of dangers.
Even death won’t scare me.
I just hope that you can protect well Li Fei.
Don’t let him get involved again.
About this,
you’ve got to trust me
like you trust yourself.
Alright! Thank you!
I didn’t expect that
the drug dealers are all gone
because of the crackdown.
Drug! Drug!
What are you doing? Drug!
What are you doing?
I don’t have any drug! Give me!
Drug! Drug! You can’t take it anymore!
Where’s your money?
You and Zaizai are the same age!
You can’t fall into his same old trap.
Money! Where’s the money?
You can’t follow his track!
Wu.
Drug!
I need drug!
Wu! I need drug!
Don’t! Drug!
Drug! Wu!
Let go of me!
I’ll make money
and send you to school.
I can also teach you.
I’m a teacher.
Go to hell!
I need drug!
Drug!
Wu!
Drug!
Wu!
I know you are suffering.
But if you take it again,
it’ll kill you.
When I saw Zaizai’s body…
Do you want to end up
lying in the morgue like Zaizai?
Your son was murdered!
Someone intentionally gave him more drugs than he could handle!
My son was murdered?
Who did it?
Tell me!
Who?
Wu!
Wu! You can’t go out!
Wu!
Don’t get out! They’ll find you!
From now on,
you need to protect Li Fei around the clock.
Around the clock?
Yes!
Around the clock.
You can’t leave him alone even a second.
I don’t wanna be his nanny.
Not a nanny,
but a bodyguard.
That’s even worse.
There are others who are also qualified for this job.
You are the most qualified one.
Why me?
I am a narcotics agent.
Ma Wen.
The safety of Li Fei
is the key to the success of this operation.
And your job
is to make sure his safety.
It’s a very important task.
Why is he the key?
Since Lin Shengwen began to make drugs,
among all the narcotics agents,
Song Yang and Li Fei have been
the biggest obstacles to the suspects.
Now Song Yang is dead.
But Li Fei is still alive.
Do you understand?
This is an order!
Yes!
I’m Ma Wen.
I am transferred from SPC.
SPC
is short for Special Police of China,
aka “Falcon Commando Unit”.
My task is
to protect you.
I don’t need protection.
It’s not up to you.
According to the order,
you’ve basically made your case clear,
and you are a free man in principle.
But for the sake of your safety,
you can’t step out of here.
I can ask me to buy
necessities for you.
You can also make phone calls.
But it must be under my watch.
You wanna hear my phone calls?
Not only your phone calls.
My job is to
give you around-the-clock protection.
Let me tell you again.
I don’t need protection.
You think I wanna do it?
I hope you can cooperate.
You really think you don’t need protection?
Ok.
Let’s look back on what you did
at Fengyi Hotel.
You should have told it was a type 64 pistol
from the first gun shot.
And the second gun shot was from a sniper rifle.
The rest of the gun shots were all
from 64.
After the first gun shot,
the right move to take should’ve been
to find cover,
not scurrying away.
Am I right?
I was in the car.
I couldn’t tell where the shooter was.
With that distance,
you should’ve been killed by the first bullet.
But you were not.
What does that tell you?
In fact, the police had already prepared.
An officer spotted the sniper
in the opposite building in time
and fired the gun first.
The officer who spotted the sniper in time
and took the first shot
to save your life is…
You are welcome!
Then, the cab you were in
was stopped by a car.
You were beat and taken by a man
within one minute and thrown into the trunk.
You didn’t make any effective moves during which time.
I know you were hurt.
But,
your performance was still quite disappointing.
So, to wrap up.
I have every right to think that
your combat capability
may only be a little bit better than average people.
If some professional killer wants to kill you,
I’m sorry to say this, but
it’ll be like an eagle attacking a chicken.
So what do you think?
Shall I continue?
Well,
could you please buy something for me?
Write them down.
The DNA of one of the killers
who died in Chang’an Town
matches with the DNA
we extracted from
the sniper’s blood left at the scene
opposite Fengyi Hotel.
It means that
the snipers of the Fengyi Hotel case
should be the dead killers in Chang’an Town.
But we haven’t found out
who’s responsible for this.
Chief Wang, Deputy Chief Lei, and Director Cui,
that’s all for my report.
Chief Wang, Deputy Chief Lei,
I think we should send Xuechao back to Zhongshan
and find out who the two killers exactly are.
As soon as possible.
The sooner we find out their identities,
the sooner we’ll be able to
unveil the secret of Dongshan.
Ok!
Chief Wang, I’m on my way.
Bao Xing’s confession proved that
Li Fei and Song Yang
were framed by Cai Jie.
Cai Qirong and Cai Qichao
didn’t know anything?
They probably didn’t.
It doesn’t make sense
if Cai Qirong and Cai Qichao
wanted something to happen to Beishan chicken farm.
The only possibility is dog-eat-dog.
In that case, my informant and I were fooled too.
Somebody colluded with Cai Jie
to take Cai Qirong and Cai Qichao away.
Meanwhile, that guy framed Li Fei and Song Yang who were already in trouble.
Kill two birds with one stone.
Theoretically,
it makes sense.
Wait here for me.
Ok.
Director Zuo, I heard that Bao Xing is arrested.
Yes.
Director Li is debriefing right now in Guangzhou.
I think
we’ll find the truth soon.
Yes.
Director Ma,
how do you think about the case “5.13”?
I believe Li Fei is innocent.
You believe him all the way?
Yes, all the way.
I know him. He is a righteous man.
He would never do a horrible thing like that.
This is the most update work report
of our case team.
You can familiarize yourself with it first.
I’ll give you and Director Li a detailed report
when he comes back.
Alright!
I’m leaving.
Ok.
Director Zuo.
Can I talk to Li Fei for a moment?
Sure.
You are the team leader.
You have the right to talk to him.
But, according to the policy…
I know the policy.
Someone else has to be on site too.
I’m going.
Li Fei thinks that
Lin Shengwen’s confession and his death
are all related to Tazhai Village.
So Li Fei believes that
a secret drug cartel must hide
in Tazhai Village, the biggest village
in Sanfeng, Dongshan.
What do you think?
If there really is a drug cartel
hiding in Tazhai Village,
then it must have something to do with Lin Yaodong.
You trust Li Fei’s testimony, right?
Although we are lack of evidence,
Li Fei’s deduction
sounds quite
logical to me.
Are you feeling better?
Much better.
You’ve got to believe that Director Li
will prove your innocence.
I’ve talked to the Joint Investigation Group.
From the moment we entered Tazhai Village to catch Lin Shengwen
to the doubts and questions
I had later.
I’ve told them all.
Good for you.
You must unreservedly
report what you know
and what you doubt
to the Joint Investigation Group.
You’ve been on the front line.
You know the drug control situation of Dongshan
even better than me.
The work can’t be done
solely relying on
my own effort.
It’s a good opportunity for us
to have the case team
remove some barriers
for our future work.
Hang in there.
Just a few more days.
Director Ma.
I also told the team about my doubt to Cai Yongqiang.
Again.
Don’t have any worry.
Feel free to say
what you think.
Has Li Fei recovered?
When can he get back to work?
Chief Wang.
I don’t actually
want Li Fei
to join the next operation.
Why?
My informant’s
only request is to
make sure Li Fei is safe.
You mean the man who helped the French police
successfully seize 1.5 tons of meth?
Give me!
No need to look.
Sometimes when you close your eyes
and feel it with your heart,
you will know things more accurately.
Even sitting in the car, I can feel
if the folks in Tazhai have changed or not.
At this time,
people should be getting off work,
and children should be going home from school.
Even the vegetable vendors should be on their way home.
On such a narrow road,
the car can still run smoothly,
which means
the people in Tazhai haven’t changed.
Tazhai
is still ours.
Lin Yaodong, born in 1962,
originally from Tazhai Village, Dongshan.
He is the chief of the village.
He was involved in a car smuggling case in 1984.
But he was only one of the accomplices, not a major figure.
He fled to Hong Kong after the case
and became a rich businessman 10 years later.
He established
Hongkong Dragon International Trading Co. Ltd.
and he serves as Chairman.
It’s said that he is a billionaire.
How did he get rich?
When Ma Yunbo first arrived in Dongshan,
he told me that
Lin Yaodong got rich in Hong Kong
by real estate and stock investing.
During the four years from 1984 to1987,
Hong Kong was in a bull market.
From 1985 to 1997,
Hong Kong experienced a surge in housing market for the sixth time.
His original fund
was probably from the car smuggling.
Uncle Dong! Uncle Dong!
Hi, Uncle Dong!
Uncle Dong! Which grade are you in?
I’m still in kindergarten. Good!
Hi, uncle Dong!
In 2008,
Dongshan City organized a Dongshan Chamber of Commerce in Shenzhen,
in order to attract
the successful businessmen who are from Dongshan
to go back to their hometown and invest.
After talking with Chen Wenze,
then Deputy Mayor of Dongshan,
Lin Yaodong went back to Tazhai Village in that year
and became the chief of the village.
He then established
Dongshan Dragon Real Estate Development Co.,
serving as Legal Representative and Chairman.
Dongshan Yunhu Resort and Lijing Garden
all belong to Dongshan Dragon Real Estate Company.
Lin Yaodong
is also a principal shareholder
of Dongshan Hotel.
Zonghui, you go first.
It’s time for payment.
The money is not ready.
Please wait for another couple of days.
We’ve waited for five days.
Then wait for two more days.
Then
give me an exact date.
We are in need of money.
Zonghui,
you are being rude to my brother.
Don’t you have a TV?
I do.
A satellite TV.
I’ve seen the news.
The kids have internet, right?
Then go online
and take a look.
The French police just
seized 1.5 tons of meth.
Are those made
from our village?
Lin Yaodong has been the village chief
for four consecutive terms.
Under his leadership,
Tazhai Village, the once poorest village
became the richest one.
Lin Yaodong was also elected twice as Longping and Dongshan deputy
to the National People’s Congress.
Starting from the year before last year,
Tazhai Village was elected two years in a row
as “Drug Control Model Village of Dongshan.”
The 1.5 tons of meth
are from Tazhai.
So you mean
our money is all gone!
No way! All gone?!
We are in need of money!
I am still sitting here!
