[Episode 30]

2
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,680
Mr. Liu.

3
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,320
I was just looking at this fish tank.

4
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:40,859
I got a betta a few days ago.

5
00:01:40,859 --> 00:01:44,000
Its tail is gorgeous.

6
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:45,720
It's just too aggressive.

7
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:47,680
Keep it with the other fish,

8
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:49,159
<i>and it ruins the whole tank.</i>

9
00:01:49,159 --> 00:01:52,280
That much trouble? Then, just get rid of it.

10
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:57,640
<i>For a fish, sure. For people...</i>

11
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,120
Take the siblings working under me.

12
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:04,160
Use them right,
and each plays to their strengths.

13
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:05,959
Use them wrong,

14
00:02:05,959 --> 00:02:11,000
<i>and they might join forces
and capsize this whole ship.</i>

15
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:14,819
Mr. Zhang, you know how to handle people.

16
00:02:14,819 --> 00:02:20,040
But are you sure they're really useful?

17
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:26,200
When everyone knows what they want,
they can pull in the same direction.

18
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,100
Chen Yi is the anchor.

19
00:02:28,100 --> 00:02:30,360
Miao Jing is the mooring line.

20
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:35,760
And you, Mr. Liu, are the keel of this ship.

21
00:02:36,479 --> 00:02:37,780
And you, Mr. Zhang?

22
00:02:37,780 --> 00:02:39,820
<i>Me?</i>

23
00:02:39,820 --> 00:02:43,218
Now that we're in the water,
someone has to steer.

24
00:02:43,218 --> 00:02:47,080
With the course in my own hands,
I can rest easy.

25
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:50,460
Mr. Zhang, with nerve like that,

26
00:02:50,460 --> 00:02:54,700
everyone on this ship is counting on you.

27
00:02:55,340 --> 00:02:59,919
<i>I bought a new yacht.
It officially launches next week.</i>

28
00:02:59,919 --> 00:03:05,740
I hope you'll do me the honor
of bringing your best people along.

29
00:03:05,740 --> 00:03:09,220
Of course. He'll be there to secure your boat.

30
00:03:09,220 --> 00:03:13,220
I'll bring him early
to meet all the guys first.

31
00:03:13,220 --> 00:03:15,060
Good. See you then.

32
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:20,640
Okay, got it.

33
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:24,740
Mr. Zhang.

34
00:03:24,740 --> 00:03:28,480
Mingtong plans to end Haoyun's audit.
They want out.

35
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,420
Just as expected.

36
00:03:30,420 --> 00:03:32,960
Looks like they don't dare dig any deeper.

37
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:37,320
But if we can't produce an audit report now,
it'll affect our listing plan.

38
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,400
Hongshen won't be easy to answer to.

39
00:03:42,439 --> 00:03:44,820
The audit team withdrew voluntarily.

40
00:03:44,820 --> 00:03:47,880
Hongshen can't pin that on us.

41
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:53,420
Besides, a listing requires an audit report.

42
00:03:53,420 --> 00:03:56,960
Sooner or later, we'll need another team.

43
00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:00,640
You mean, bring in a more obedient team?

44
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:04,340
Mr. Cen is easy. He knows what's at stake.

45
00:04:04,340 --> 00:04:08,100
It's just that Miao keeps a close eye
on everything.

46
00:04:08,100 --> 00:04:11,840
I'm afraid it won't be easy
to explain things to her.

47
00:04:16,740 --> 00:04:18,639
How are the annual party preparations?

48
00:04:18,639 --> 00:04:20,400
All set.

49
00:04:22,879 --> 00:04:25,800
The audit team's work is almost done.

50
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:29,779
Seat Miao at the head table.

51
00:04:29,779 --> 00:04:31,280
All right.

52
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,960
Everything in this world has a weakness.

53
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:40,500
People are no exception.

54
00:04:40,500 --> 00:04:44,420
Once you find that weakness,
everything becomes easy.

55
00:04:44,420 --> 00:04:46,480
- Understood.
- Remember one thing.

56
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:50,347
You need to be ruthless if you want to survive.

57
00:05:16,220 --> 00:05:19,760
Are you ready? This time, I make the moves.

58
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:22,361
Whenever you're ready.

59

[Teng City Haoyun Logistics Co., Ltd.]
[2011 Annual Party]

60
00:05:56,441 --> 00:06:01,620
Looking back on this year,
it was full of challenges and pressure.

61
00:06:01,620 --> 00:06:05,540
But we still delivered outstanding results.

62
00:06:05,540 --> 00:06:08,780
You have all worked hard lately.

63
00:06:08,780 --> 00:06:11,740
Haoyun has come this far

64
00:06:11,740 --> 00:06:15,180
because of everyone here.

65
00:06:16,434 --> 00:06:20,754
So, I'd like to raise a glass to you all.

66
00:06:30,809 --> 00:06:32,410
Please sit.

67
00:06:36,578 --> 00:06:41,598
I'd like to take this chance to thank

68
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,061
Mr. Chen Yi,

69
00:06:47,380 --> 00:06:49,381
Mr. Tao Jiang,

70
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:51,876
and Ms. Wu Yan Juan.

71
00:06:52,500 --> 00:06:57,400
The three of them have given Haoyun so much
of themselves.

72
00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:02,560
Now, let's give them a round of applause
and welcome them to the stage.

73
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:28,943
Thank you, Mr. Zhang.

74
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:57,460
Chen Yi.

75
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:00,699
I would like

76
00:08:00,699 --> 00:08:05,540
to say a few more words
in front of everyone here.

77
00:08:05,540 --> 00:08:10,240
Mr. Chen and I go way back.

78
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,320
We have quite a history.

79
00:08:13,528 --> 00:08:18,968
If he hadn't gone to Country Jin back then,
he'd be vice president by now.

80
00:08:19,900 --> 00:08:22,220
Mr. Chen has had it rough.

81
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:26,410
Back in Country Jin,

82
00:08:26,410 --> 00:08:31,800
he was a box fighter and drove for local gangs.

83
00:08:32,680 --> 00:08:35,243
When he finally made it back,

84
00:08:35,243 --> 00:08:37,640
the first time I saw him,

85
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:41,320
he was covered in old wounds,
one on top of another.

86
00:08:43,220 --> 00:08:45,460
It broke my heart.

87
00:08:47,860 --> 00:08:49,821
So I've decided

88
00:08:50,980 --> 00:08:56,080
to put up five percent of my own shares
as this year's year-end bonus

89
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:59,720
for my partner, Chen Yi.

90
00:09:00,620 --> 00:09:02,620
Let me say this again.

91
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:07,540
Chen Yi isn't just my business partner.
He's my brother.

92
00:09:07,540 --> 00:09:09,060
From now on,

93
00:09:09,060 --> 00:09:11,040
through thick and thin,

94
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:14,760
we'll share the good times
and face the hard times together.

95
00:09:23,700 --> 00:09:25,120
Mr. Zhang, Mr. Chen, come on.

96
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,400
- Look here. Let's take a photo.
- Okay.

97
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,920
Haoyun's future depends on all of you.

98
00:09:31,419 --> 00:09:34,680
Chen Yi, come here. You guys drink up.

99
00:09:36,220 --> 00:09:37,781
Ms. Miao.

100
00:09:38,940 --> 00:09:44,800
We're truly honored
that the audit team came to our banquet.

101
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:46,460
Thank you.

102
00:09:55,060 --> 00:09:58,320
You may have just heard about Yi's past today.

103
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:00,060
I doubt it came as a surprise.

104
00:10:00,060 --> 00:10:01,860
After all,

105
00:10:01,860 --> 00:10:07,420
everyone has things in their past
they'd rather not talk about.

106
00:10:15,260 --> 00:10:16,780
<i>I trust you.</i>

107
00:10:16,780 --> 00:10:19,820
<i>But we both have to make it out alive.</i>

108
00:10:19,820 --> 00:10:23,700
Of course, we also owe you for your support.

109
00:10:23,700 --> 00:10:25,421
I'm flattered.

110
00:10:30,059 --> 00:10:31,860
- Come.
- Okay.

111
00:10:31,860 --> 00:10:33,520
Cheers.

112
00:10:39,900 --> 00:10:41,501
Please enjoy.

113
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:46,440
You see it now, right?

114
00:10:47,100 --> 00:10:51,780
The bonds
between people are only worth so much.

115
00:10:51,780 --> 00:10:53,640
- One poke, and they fall apart.
- Mr. Zhang.

116
00:10:54,397 --> 00:10:56,139
Congratulations, Mr. Chen.

117
00:10:56,139 --> 00:10:59,180
Haoyun is still counting on you.

118
00:10:59,180 --> 00:11:02,000
Let's go even bigger next year.

119
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:05,480
- It's a pleasure doing business.
- For our future business,

120
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,481
- I'll still be counting on you. Thank you.
- Sure.

121
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:09,740
- Alright. Okay.
- Mr. Zhang, Mr. Chen.

122
00:11:09,740 --> 00:11:10,779
- Then I'll leave you to it.
- Alright.

123
00:11:10,779 --> 00:11:13,460
- Mr. Zhang, let's keep in touch.
- Sure. Okay.

124
00:11:13,460 --> 00:11:14,940
Bye.

125
00:11:16,820 --> 00:11:18,485
Mr. Zhang.

126
00:11:18,485 --> 00:11:19,720
Leaving?

127
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:21,560
Thank you for the dinner.

128
00:11:21,560 --> 00:11:24,160
You're welcome. Drive safe.

129
00:12:14,603 --> 00:12:17,340
Everyone, pause what you're doing.

130
00:12:17,340 --> 00:12:19,340
Due to some procedural issues,

131
00:12:19,340 --> 00:12:23,840
all our audit work on Haoyun Logistics
has been suspended.

132
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,480
Gather up the materials and files you're using.

133
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:30,020
I booked us all on an early flight
back to Hai City tomorrow.

134
00:12:31,560 --> 00:12:35,940
But we're just waiting on the report.
This is so sudden.

135
00:12:35,940 --> 00:12:40,580
If the project is on hold and we leave now,
all our work here will be for nothing.

136
00:12:40,580 --> 00:12:45,320
Did we mess something up
during the audit? Or...

137
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:47,700
I'll explain the details
when we're back in Hai City.

138
00:12:47,700 --> 00:12:50,760
For now, just go.

139
00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:51,960
You all head back first.

140
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:54,700
I'll stay a couple of days
to wrap up some personal matters.

141
00:12:54,700 --> 00:12:59,400
And I won't let Zhang Bin call us negligent.

142
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:00,520
All right.

143
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:03,480
Then you handle communications
with management and the third party.

144
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:06,300
Everyone else, pack up quickly.

145
00:13:14,019 --> 00:13:17,220
Jing, you're staying here alone?

146
00:13:17,220 --> 00:13:19,000
Haoyun is seriously shady.

147
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,280
Who knows what Mr. Zhang might do?

148
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,980
Why don't I stay here with you?

149
00:13:23,980 --> 00:13:26,600
Don't worry. I'll be fine.

150
00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:27,980
All right.

151
00:13:27,980 --> 00:13:30,760
Call me anytime if you need backup.

[The long arm of the law catches up
with everyone.]

<i>I'm here to ask a few questions.</i>

154
00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:32,180
<i>You can play dumb,
but this involves Zhang and your dear buddy Zhai.</i>

155
00:14:32,180 --> 00:14:34,520
<i>Think carefully.</i>

156
00:14:36,675 --> 00:14:39,940
<i>Didn't you people set me up?</i>

157
00:14:39,940 --> 00:14:43,020
<i>Now you're turning on Zhang Bin?</i>

158
00:14:44,700 --> 00:14:46,740
<i>Haoyun has a dirty history.</i>

159
00:14:46,740 --> 00:14:50,540
<i>You worked with them for years,
so you must know plenty.</i>

160
00:14:50,540 --> 00:14:52,740
<i>You want payback against Zhang Bin.</i>

161
00:14:52,740 --> 00:14:56,644
Working with me is your best move.

162
00:14:56,644 --> 00:14:58,280

We bought a few trucks to haul freight.

<i>But how many could cook the books
like Zhang Bin?</i>

193

Our wages and severance were all costs.

Even if Zhang Bin wanted to fake the numbers,
he'd need real cash sitting on the books.

00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:21,319
- No. I needed to--
- So the withdrawal was entirely your decision.

325
00:29:21,319 --> 00:29:23,780
That violates procedure.

326
00:29:25,039 --> 00:29:29,140
First, I admit there were procedural flaws
in my work.

327
00:29:29,140 --> 00:29:33,260
But halting the audit was done
in the company's best interest.

328
00:29:33,260 --> 00:29:37,340
Haoyun's original books
and financial records had serious issues.

329
00:29:37,340 --> 00:29:41,480
Before notifying the client directly,
I felt I had to inform headquarters first.

330
00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:46,700
Once we reached an internal consensus,
we would issue the documents to the client.

331
00:29:46,700 --> 00:29:50,400
Which original records at Haoyun had issues,
and how were they doctored?

332
00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:54,000
You were evasive in the report.

333
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:56,320
Besides, as far as I know,

334
00:29:56,320 --> 00:30:01,880
this withdrawal was called a full-team exit,
yet you left Miao Jing in Teng City.

335
00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:04,620
May I venture a bold guess?

336
00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:11,220
Was there an improper relationship
between your audit team and Haoyun?

337
00:30:12,700 --> 00:30:16,220
Director Cen. How do you explain that?

338
00:30:17,220 --> 00:30:19,000
Miao Jing was the team leader.

339
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:21,960
She stayed behind to wrap things up
with the audited party.

340
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:24,940
This is routine work for our audit team.

341
00:30:24,940 --> 00:30:28,880
I don't think that's your call.

342
00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:34,660
Why don't we have Deputy Miao join remotely?

343
00:30:34,660 --> 00:30:39,580
She can get up to speed on Haoyun's status.

344
00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:48,520
Sorry, everyone. I'm late.

345
00:30:55,579 --> 00:30:58,180
<i>It was around 2006.</i>

346
00:30:58,180 --> 00:31:01,320
<i>Zhang Bin got us into logistics.</i>

347
00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:05,619
<i>When Haoyun was just getting started,
we bought a few trucks to haul freight.</i>

348
00:31:05,619 --> 00:31:09,640
<i>Our revenue barely covered fuel for the trucks.</i>

349
00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:12,080
<i>Everyone said behind closed doors,</i>

350
00:31:13,079 --> 00:31:16,579
<i>Haoyun Logistics would go under.</i>

351
00:31:16,579 --> 00:31:21,220
<i>Zhang Bin made up some charge</i>

352
00:31:21,220 --> 00:31:24,380
<i>and purged all of us old-timers.</i>

353
00:31:24,380 --> 00:31:29,079
<i>The police had just announced Mr. Zhai missing.</i>

354
00:31:29,079 --> 00:31:31,740
<i>The company was a total mess.</i>

355
00:31:31,740 --> 00:31:34,000
<i>I figured I could just take the money,</i>

356
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:38,740
<i>but he didn't give me a cent in severance.</i>

357
00:31:41,500 --> 00:31:44,100
This is a recording of Sun Hu,
a former Haoyun employee.

358
00:31:44,100 --> 00:31:47,900
As you heard, Sun Hu admits

359
00:31:47,900 --> 00:31:52,260
Haoyun used deception
to attract Hongshen's investment.

360
00:31:52,260 --> 00:31:54,360
That's why I stopped the audit.

361
00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:57,900
I can't let an audit report go out
if fraud is involved.

362
00:31:57,900 --> 00:32:01,200
You call it fraud based on one recording.

363
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:04,300
It's flimsy evidence at best.

364
00:32:05,220 --> 00:32:08,420
To avoid any concerns
that the recording was faked,

365
00:32:08,420 --> 00:32:11,520
I brought the materials, too,
showing how it was obtained.

366
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:13,460
The recording's authenticity isn't in doubt.

367
00:32:13,460 --> 00:32:17,720
And this very recording
confirms the report's authenticity.

368
00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:22,560
The report just presented goes into detail
on Haoyun's business early in its transition.

369
00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:26,660
You can assess for yourselves
whether Haoyun's business scale at the time

370
00:32:26,660 --> 00:32:30,420
could attract an investor like Hongshen.

371
00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:34,140
Arguing won't get us anywhere.

372
00:32:34,140 --> 00:32:38,240
The report and the recording
do need a detailed review.

373
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:42,260
As for the specifics,
we'll review them and discuss them later.

374
00:32:49,340 --> 00:32:50,599
This is what you asked for.

375
00:32:50,599 --> 00:32:54,040
Dug out from the old archives.
Back then, it was all on paper.

376
00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:55,860
Thanks.

377
00:32:57,580 --> 00:32:59,980
Monica thought you'd fled back from Teng City.

378
00:32:59,980 --> 00:33:02,560
What do you think?

379
00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:04,520
I think you're up to something.

380
00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:07,420
Someone's going to pay dearly again.

381
00:33:07,420 --> 00:33:09,380
You know me too well.

382
00:33:09,380 --> 00:33:14,220
Teng City police and Lingang Police
have been talking off the record.

383
00:33:14,220 --> 00:33:15,819
They'll handle it from here.

384
00:33:15,819 --> 00:33:19,800
But we need to add more
to the economic crime case.

385
00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:23,660
Do you still have the tax records from then?

386
00:33:25,020 --> 00:33:27,000
That wouldn't be compliant.

387
00:33:28,220 --> 00:33:29,560
Too bad.

388
00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:32,660
The famous Cen plays by the rules now.

389
00:33:32,660 --> 00:33:37,660
No more auditor's zeal
for digging to the bottom.

390
00:33:38,380 --> 00:33:40,960
You really know how to make my life hard.

391
00:33:43,220 --> 00:33:45,040
I'll look for it.

392
00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:49,280
I've got the file ready for you.

393
00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:51,280
Our usual afternoon tea in a bit.

394
00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:54,680
Business hospitality or friends catching up?

395
00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:57,840
- A trip down memory lane.
- Then I'm not going.

396
00:33:57,840 --> 00:33:59,840
Do you want the big gift or not?

397
00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:01,600
My treat.

398
00:34:06,780 --> 00:34:10,460
[Lorraine Flower Kitchen]

399
00:34:14,940 --> 00:34:17,540
Kuangxia's bad accounts are endless.

400
00:34:17,540 --> 00:34:20,580
Its illegal proceeds were confiscated
over an economic fraud case.

401
00:34:20,580 --> 00:34:23,300
Zhai, the person implicated in the case,
fled and went missing.

402
00:34:23,300 --> 00:34:26,720
He fled with some of the illegal income.

403
00:34:28,100 --> 00:34:30,619
In 2006?

404
00:34:30,619 --> 00:34:34,159
Haoyun suddenly gained liquid assets that year.

405
00:34:34,159 --> 00:34:39,280
The total was about what Zhai Feng Mao took.

406
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:41,099
Without that money,

407
00:34:41,099 --> 00:34:44,060
Zhang Bin never would have passed
Hongshen's investment review.

408
00:34:44,060 --> 00:34:45,540
That adds up.

409
00:34:45,540 --> 00:34:50,260
The money Zhai Feng Mao took was laundered
by Zhang Bin into Haoyun's liquid assets.

410
00:34:50,260 --> 00:34:53,520
That's how he cooked the books
and conned Hongshen into investing.

411
00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:55,420
This already counts as financial fraud.

412
00:34:55,420 --> 00:34:58,640
And it involves suspected smuggling.

413
00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:01,000
Haoyun is a minefield.

414
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:02,520
Miao Jing.

415
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:05,460
The smart move is to get out now.

416
00:35:09,540 --> 00:35:11,381
Is it because he's in it too?

417
00:35:13,963 --> 00:35:17,980
Then why him and not me?

418
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:21,559
We're too much alike.

419
00:35:21,559 --> 00:35:23,140
Is that a bad thing?

420
00:35:23,140 --> 00:35:25,600
We click at work and in life.

421
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:28,539
Isn't that better than constant conflict?

422
00:35:28,539 --> 00:35:32,140
That's exactly why we're not right
for each other.

423
00:35:32,140 --> 00:35:34,340
We knew from the start

424
00:35:34,340 --> 00:35:38,220
that auditing is built
on independence and loyalty.

425
00:35:38,220 --> 00:35:39,719
You want too much.

426
00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:41,300
So do I.

427
00:35:41,300 --> 00:35:43,520
We know each other's ambitions too well.

428
00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:46,000
We also know how independent
and stubborn we both are.

429
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:49,780
At work, that makes us great partners.

430
00:35:49,780 --> 00:35:54,400
But as lovers,
we could never be completely honest.

431
00:35:55,180 --> 00:36:01,099
I'm greedy. I need my partner to be loyal
and always put me first.

432
00:36:01,099 --> 00:36:03,199
It's just that you can't do that for me.

433
00:36:03,199 --> 00:36:06,020
And I don't quite have it in me either.

434
00:36:07,940 --> 00:36:09,099
We're still friends.

435
00:36:09,099 --> 00:36:12,060
Call me if you ever need anything.

436
00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:54,128
Hongshen Group was preparing to go public,
so they got exposed.

437
00:39:54,128 --> 00:39:58,980
He and this man used to be close friends.

438
00:39:58,980 --> 00:40:00,500
They were partners.

439
00:40:00,500 --> 00:40:01,760
Liu Bin Bo.

440
00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:04,300
This guy was just a lackey.

441
00:40:04,300 --> 00:40:07,240
The underling has been detained.

442
00:40:07,240 --> 00:40:09,600
That's the situation.

443
00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:11,039
Captain Zhou.

444
00:40:11,039 --> 00:40:12,480
Anything else to add?

445
00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:14,559
I think that covers everything.

446
00:40:14,559 --> 00:40:17,060
- I'll go back and compile the report.
- Okay.

447
00:40:19,019 --> 00:40:22,440
Captain Zhou, I'll follow up on this lead.

448
00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:24,880
Listen.

449
00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:26,699
You two focus on him.

450
00:40:26,699 --> 00:40:27,980
Understood?

451
00:40:27,980 --> 00:40:29,619
I want every detail on him.

452
00:40:29,619 --> 00:40:32,699
Also, write down every point I mentioned.

453
00:40:32,699 --> 00:40:35,559
[B will fly to Lingang to meet the local guy.]
This person... We're on him, and so are they.

454
00:40:35,559 --> 00:40:37,699
- No rush. Alright.
- Okay.

455
00:40:37,699 --> 00:40:39,440
He's already in custody.

456
00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:51,660
Mr. Liu and the other guests are in the cars.

457
00:40:56,820 --> 00:40:59,440
Mr. Liu built his own receiving dock.

458
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:01,160
It won't be easy to find.

459
00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:04,540
I'll show you the route on the first run.

460
00:41:04,540 --> 00:41:08,760
Once you know it,
you'll be in charge of this route.

461
00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:14,480
Yi, you've always been bold but careful.

462
00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:17,760
So I shouldn't have to worry, right?

463
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:31,140
Chen Yi.

464
00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:41,240
Chen Yi.

465
00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:57,060
Didn't I say to be back before ten?

466
00:42:05,780 --> 00:42:06,980
Everyone.

467
00:42:06,980 --> 00:42:11,560
The smuggling amount in this case is massive,
and the nature of the crime is vile.

468
00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:13,540
We must seize this chance

469
00:42:13,540 --> 00:42:18,260
to take down Liu Bin Bo
and his smuggling network in Teng City.

470
00:42:18,260 --> 00:42:20,180
Now I'll assign the tasks.

471
00:42:20,180 --> 00:42:21,739
Team One, you're here.

472
00:42:21,739 --> 00:42:25,160
Detain any suspicious person on sight.

473
00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:26,480
Team Two, you're here.

474
00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:28,880
Everyone else, follow Captain Zhou.

475
00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:32,639
Everyone, this is not a drill. Understood?

476
00:42:32,639 --> 00:42:33,800
- Understood.
- Understood.

477
00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:35,260
Good. Get ready.

478
00:42:35,260 --> 00:42:37,200
Yes, sir.

479
00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:41,780
Why are you only calling now?

480
00:42:41,780 --> 00:42:43,139
<i>They leave at ten.</i>

481
00:42:43,139 --> 00:42:46,019
I should be able to get out
once I reach the checkpoint.

482
00:42:46,019 --> 00:42:48,880
<i>All right, pull back.</i>

483
00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:50,199
No mistakes from anyone today.

484
00:42:50,199 --> 00:42:52,200
<i>We'll handle the rest.</i>

485
00:42:53,300 --> 00:42:54,719
Hello.

486
00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:56,260
Yi.

487
00:43:12,320 --> 00:43:13,980
My phone is off.

488
00:43:13,980 --> 00:43:15,440
It's not that I don't trust you.

489
00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:17,739
The police have eyes and ears everywhere.

490
00:43:17,739 --> 00:43:21,000
We need to be careful, right?

491
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:22,060
Of course.

492
00:43:22,060 --> 00:43:24,000
Kai, take Team Two in a minute.

493
00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:25,140
I'll take Team One.

494
00:43:25,140 --> 00:43:26,680
The city police will be backing us up.

495
00:43:26,680 --> 00:43:28,940
No one moves without our order.

496
00:43:28,940 --> 00:43:30,500
Understood.

497
00:43:33,740 --> 00:43:36,699
They may have a lot of people.

498
00:43:36,699 --> 00:43:39,100
Stay safe during the operation.

499
00:43:39,100 --> 00:43:40,760
- Yes, sir.
- If it comes down to it,

500
00:43:40,760 --> 00:43:43,060
- Uncle Zhou.
- then we--

501
00:43:43,060 --> 00:43:44,900
Jing, how come you're here?

502
00:43:44,900 --> 00:43:46,440
We're busy today.

503
00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:47,780
I can't reach Chen Yi.

504
00:43:47,780 --> 00:43:49,760
Did something happen to Chen Yi?

505
00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:51,800
What could have happened?

506
00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:56,560
Jing.

507
00:43:56,560 --> 00:43:58,120
We have an operation today.

508
00:43:58,120 --> 00:43:59,800
Whatever it is, we'll talk when I'm back.

509
00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:01,480
Uncle Zhou.

510
00:44:03,900 --> 00:44:06,160
This is the key he asked me to hold on to.

511
00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:08,220
I'm giving it back to you now.

512
00:44:16,180 --> 00:44:18,220
Jing.

513
00:44:18,220 --> 00:44:19,760
Leave it to the police.

514
00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:21,940
But this isn't just a police matter.

515
00:44:21,940 --> 00:44:25,980
Everything Zhang Bin has done,
big or small, affects all of us.

516
00:44:25,980 --> 00:44:27,980
Teng City alone had Green Life back then.

517
00:44:27,980 --> 00:44:31,179
<i>Join Green Life, win the future.</i>

518
00:44:31,179 --> 00:44:32,659
And now there's germanium metal.

519
00:44:32,659 --> 00:44:33,860
And so many other things, big and small.

520
00:44:33,860 --> 00:44:36,120
- All of it...
<i>- It's people's life savings!</i>

521
00:44:38,340 --> 00:44:40,639
I know all of this.

522
00:44:40,639 --> 00:44:44,800
Jing, I promise this will all be over soon.

523
00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:46,500
Go home.

524
00:44:49,139 --> 00:44:51,100
Uncle Zhou.

525
00:44:51,100 --> 00:44:56,120
If Chen Yi has to do something, then so do I.

526
00:44:58,019 --> 00:45:00,059
Captain Zhou, are we clear to go?

527
00:45:00,059 --> 00:45:01,800
Get in.

528
00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:03,280
Tell everyone: stay safe, strike fast.

529
00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:04,599
- Copy that.
- Prepare for action.

530
00:45:04,599 --> 00:45:06,540
- We're ready to move.
- Go.

531
00:45:06,540 --> 00:45:08,179
- Jing. Promise me.
- Are you ready?

532
00:45:08,179 --> 00:45:09,400
- Don't do anything reckless.
- Go.

533
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:10,980
Go.

534
00:45:14,199 --> 00:45:15,740
Move out.
