The Knockout (2023) s01e19 Episode Script
Episode 19
[The Knockout]
[Episode 19]
Chief Li, try my tea.
It's especially good.
Chairman.
What happened?
I just think of a little problem in my family.
I was afraid that Chief Li would be bothered
if I said it.
Chief Li, his son
is now still detained at your station, right?
Yes.
I heard he had nothing to do with it.
It's settled.
One is drug trafficking,
and another is harbouring.
He helped the suspect
destroy the evidence.
The drug was not found
on him.
You do something
and let him go.
Is that hard?
Mayor Zhao is also very concerned
about this.
Aren't your Criminal Police Unit and Narcotics Control Unit
in the same unit?
I'll try.
Come. Let's have dinner.
-Let's eat. -Okay.
-Come on. -Please.
Please.
My dear nephew.
All right, you can go back now.
I'll call you if anything happens.
Come on.
Come on.
What you have done today
I'll go back and tell my boss
word for word.
As long as we have our own people in the Public Security Bureau,
everything can go our way,
right?
Mang Village is quite complicated.
Up until now,
two murders
and one kidnapping case.
Li Hongwei also took drugs.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
As for demolition and relocation,
how many times
can they meet in their lives?
Of course, they will try to get as much compensation as they can.
Right?
By the way,
This.
A gas card from Li Youtian.
Take it.
No!
Secretary Wang,
I don't have a car.
I don't need it.
You're a chief,
and you don't have a car?
You pick one from their store.
Don't worry about the money.
Take it.
I'm leaving.
Why did you release Li Hongwei?
Didn't we investigate him clearly?
And he is a first-time offender.
He'd already had his lesson.
It's not about the drugs.
Zhang Daqing and Zhang Xiaoqing
are his men.
Now one is dead and one is missing.
Do you think it has nothing to do with him?
What does it have to do with him?
He just lent his car
to them.
He didn't know
they were going to commit kidnapping.
Besides, after Li Qing died,
he hid the car.
He was scared.
Isn't that human nature?
Isn't it normal?
I don't think you are normal.
No one is normal
in your eyes, right?
If you think I have a problem,
go report me to the Commission of Discipline Inspection.
Chief Li. Master.
Something's wrong.
Even Director Guo has rushed over.
People, please disperse!
Calm down!
Calm down, everyone!
Calm down.
Inspector Pan!
Director, it's too chaotic here.
Why don't you go back first?
Leave me to handle it.
What happened?
The construction team is laying fiber optic cables
but has cut off the cable.
The neighborhoods nearby
are out of power.
Please, be quiet!
What's going on? You say it.
The power has been out for two days.
They just fixed it yesterday.
But today they cut it off again.
Are they the construction team
or the demolition team?
Yes!
We have shops to run,
and we can't stand it anymore.
The meat in the fridge is rotten.
Where is the person in charge of the construction site?
Where is the person in charge?
Come to me!
Coming.
You are in charge of the construction site?
Hello, sir.
I'm Chengcheng
from the Jinghai Construction Engineering Group.
I don't care who you are.
Fix the cable now
and restore the power supply. Understand?
Sir, we won't make
such stupid mistakes twice in a row.
It's obvious that someone is messing with us.
You should be responsible
for the safety of the construction site.
Enough talking.
Fix the cable and restore the power supply.
Got it?
Yes.
What's the use of repairing it?
It will still be broken by them again.
We can't afford it.
Stop the construction!
Okay!
Quiet, everyone.
Listen to me.
First,
repair the cable and restore the power supply.
We'll monitor it.
And it won't be delayed.
Second,
the construction has to continue.
It concerns the development and construction
of the city.
Get lost if you don't stop the construction.
Or I'll bury you alive.
Don't fight!
Don't hit people!
Director Guo.
I'm really sorry about this.
Director Guo.
I'm fine.
I just sprained my wrist.
It's just a bit dislocated.
A splint will be enough.
But they won't let me leave.
Just stay here.
Take this opportunity
and do all the tests.
Have a few days off and take good care of yourself.
Listen.
I'm fine.
Unlike you,
I don't smoke or drink.
Come in.
Uncle Meng.
Secretary Meng.
Director.
Director Guo, how are you feeling?
How am I feeling? I feel fine.
It's just a scratch.
Who did this?
How arrogant!
We've caught him.
Since you're here,
you can cooperate with the police station
and interrogate them together.
I don't think
this is just a simple construction dispute.
How come you arrested me?
I'm the victim, okay?
Look, I am the one who got beaten up.
Enough. Be quiet.
Is there anyone in charge?
Look! Look!
Your police did this to me.
You are the one who hit the police?
You cops, hit me!
Do you know what it means to assault a police officer?
I have witnesses.
Those people
who have fought with you?
I'll sue you.
Let's wait and see.
It won't be over
if you don't compensate me.
Where do you live?
What?
You want to come to my house and threaten me?
I'm asking you! Where do you live?
Which compound?
Which building and unit?
Zhang Xiaofeng.
You don't live
near the construction area.
What does the power failure there
have anything to do with you?
Why are you here and stirring things up?
I'm here for justice.
Incite the people.
Gather a crowd to create a disturbance.
Do you know what the crime is?
Who ordered you?
No one.
I'm a righteous man.
I want someone from you.
Gao Qiqiang.
You guessed it.
The more trouble
Mang Village and Construction Engineering Group have made,
the worse it is
for the development of your Qinghua District.
We've approved
the planning of highways.
Next is demolition.
The demolition and relocation are a big trouble.
Li Youtian of Mang Village
and those wolves behind him
are eyeing the financial budget
in my pocket.
They can't wait to
tear me apart.
Secretary Meng.
Gao Qiqiang
is not a good solution.
You're right.
It's not a good idea.
But it's better than having no idea at all.
As you know,
as the secretary of the district committee,
I have long been a mere figurehead created by Zhao Lidong.
A few days ago, the District Mayor, Gong Kaijiang,
was invited to have tea with him.
How did you know?
He said it himself.
Although he's timid,
he's loyal to you.
Because he is timid,
he doesn't want to offend anyone.
Think about it.
If Zhao Lidong
led this renovation project,
the compensation for the people of Qinghua District
would be taken away.
Gao Qiqiang is not a saint.
It's only been a few days.
He had already
put Jinghai in turmoil.
The position is different,
so the perspective on problems
is different.
There's only a small distance
between security and governance.
But actually,
they are so far apart.
Yes, I'm in charge of the security.
I must separate the right from the wrong.
You see.
You are now in a different position and level.
So your tone is different.
What level?
Our relationship
Why did you mention
this nonsense?
Sit.
[Report on the "Construction Site Brawl"]
According to the investigation,
other than those
who were instigated,
most of them
are idle people.
Many of them
don't even live there.
Obviously, they were instigated
to cause trouble.
Who instigated them?
The leader is called Baldy Yong.
According to the public,
he is close to
Gao Qiqiang's man, Tang Xiaohu.
They often drink together.
However, based on
these construction disputes,
Tang Xiaohu
doesn't have such strong organization ability.
But there's another thing,
and it's troublesome.
Baldy Yong
claimed that we beat him
and insisted on suing us.
Nonsense!
I was at the scene.
The officers' behavior was fine.
But they have witnesses.
Quite a lot.
They have witnesses, and so do we.
Guo.
Let's be realistic.
You are also familiar
with the public opinion environment too.
Once there is a conflict between
the police and the public,
even if we shared the same blame,
there would be many people
who believe that the bureaucrats shield one another.
What should we do next?
What do you think?
They are making a scene
because they want us
to let Gao Qiqiang go
so he can establish prestige in the Construction Engineering Group.
Chen Shuting has applied
for bail pending trial.
We haven't agreed yet.
What do you think?
Fine.
Do what you should do.
Rules and regulations
can't be led by the public.
Cousin.
Why are you here?
My mom sent some chilies from the countryside.
She said you liked it too,
so she asked me to bring some to you.
You came to me in broad daylight
without a call!
Do you think you live too long?
Gao Qiqiang's whole family
was arrested by the police.
No one will notice me.
Although Gao Qiqiang is in prison,
his men are still out there.
Now is the most dangerous time.
You need to learn to protect yourself.
Listen to me.
This is the last time.
Okay.
I'll go back first.
I've remitted the money
for my aunt's third phase of chemotherapy.
Remember to go back and check her out.
Go now.
Don't be a joker with me.
Sorry for the delay in your trip.
Later,
I'll take you to Disneyland.
It's nothing.
Gao Qiqiang, I warn you.
Don't make me worry so much.
How many times have I told you
Nothing happened, right?
Yes.
[Jinghai forces to]
I heard.
You did a good job.
That's my duty.
Brother, what should we do next?
If they want to fight,
we'll fight with them
until they submit.
You just came out. Who are you going to fight with?
Everyone.
Mr. Gao.
Mr. Gao.
Just cut to the chase.
You guys
have been the old timers
since the Construction Engineering Group
was first established.
A toast to you.
Thank you
for taking care of me
and making things difficult for me.
I'll make it short.
I'm going to take down Chengcheng.
You three, choose a side.
Xiao is the oldest.
You joined the company as soon as it was established.
You were the warehouseman,
logistician,
and purchaser.
Your positions are the easiest positions
to get kickbacks.
But I didn't expect you
to be so greedy.
You earn over 1 million yuan a year.
How can you have
tens of millions in savings?
What will happen if Uncle Tai knows?
Mr. Gao, please.
Please spare me.
Whatever you say.
I'll listen to whatever you say.
Mr. Gao,
a toast to you.
Let's eat.
OK.
Du is the lecher.
It's all written on his face.
But it can lead to bitter consequences.
This girl is so beautiful.
So beautiful.
How did you
I heard that
she confronted your wife
and asked you to get a divorce.
She asked you to pay her 30 million yuan, right?
I've fixed it for you.
From now on,
she won't bother you anymore.
Be careful with the women you find in the future.
Really?
Thank you.
I'll drink one with you.
It is people like Mr. Wang
that I respect the most,
who are well educated, not greedy,
follow the law, and have principles.
I'm most afraid of this kind of person,
who can't be forced or bribed.
Let's eat.
What?
Wait! What are you doing?
Mr. Gao.
I'll support you!
Thank you.
Brother.
Done?
Lu,
did you work as the boss's driver
before becoming mine?
I used to drive for the town mayor.
You have been my driver for two months.
Two and a half months.
You stand over there.
Find someone
to search my car
and see if there's anything else in it.
Okay.
It's fine.
Brother Qiang. A tapping device.
That kind can standby for seven days with full power.
Only now the power is out.
You put it in?
I've never seen it.
Then it must be my sister-in-law.
I don't know.
Then it must be Xiaochen.
I don't know.
I don't like this answer.
Then don't blame us.
Boss, I really don't know.
It shouldn't be him.
He drives for me every day.
If the battery is dead,
he will definitely charge it.
It must be someone
who couldn't get close to my car.
Lu,
tell me if you need money.
I'm happy
with the salary you gave me.
Then work harder in the future.
Check my car several more times every day.
I don't want to see
that thing again.
Got it.
Guys, the boss is back.
Let's work hard
and make up for the work
that we missed the last two days, okay?
-Come on. -Okay.
Dear neighbors, come here.
Come and get the gifts.
Okay, thank you.
Recently,
we're very sorry.
We have been working here,
which has disturbed your normal life.
We're sorry.
Today, our construction group
has prepared some small gifts
for you.
I hope
you can continue to support us.
-Thank you. -Thank you, Boss.
Okay, thank you.
Let me say one more thing.
When the project is over,
in your compound,
our group will give you
three ping-pong tables.
Okay?
Okay!
Thank you.
Come on.
There are rumors going around.
I didn't pitch in
with your family's accident this time.
I was afraid you might misunderstand me.
Who said that nonsense to you?
Daddy!
If I know,
I'll tear their mouths apart!
You are my godfather.
Since I was young, you taught me how to be a person and do things.
We're family.
There's no misunderstanding.
Dad, don't worry.
Qiqiang won't think so either.
If he dares to think like that,
I'll skin him alive.
After Gao Qiqiang came back,
he did this and that
and caused a lot of trouble.
Yes.
But it's all for
our family business.
The construction site has been suspended
while he has been away.
So when he comes back,
he has to solve them one by one.
The site just resumed construction.
Did you find the light cable in the warehouse?
We didn't lose it in the first place.
They work sloppily.
So they misunderstood the transfer record.
No wonder Mr. Xiao and Mr. Du
always say good things about Gao Qiqiang
in front of me.
It seems that
he has done a lot of good things lately.
Daddy.
Recently,
he wants to win
the highway bid.
Does that mean
we have to deal with Mang Village again?
Yes.
But the government is supporting us this time.
Don't worry.
Come.
He didn't suspect you anymore?
As you said,
I put an unpowered bug
in the car.
So it's over.
Gao Qiqiang.
He is just too confident
in his own judgment.
Sister.
I'll be fine, right?
He said in the car
that if they want to fight,
we'll fight to the end,
until they submit.
Does this "they" mean you?
Maybe they
sent you here to tell me this on purpose.
No way.
He treats me the same as before.
We've been fighting to this point.
Gao Qiqiang and I
both have no way out.
What are you doing?
Boss.
Look at you.
My brother has prepared some local specialties for you.
You and your brother
are so generous.
Boss.
It's our duty.
-Look at this. -Sir.
It's our duty.
It's not just for you.
I heard
the plan for the highway is out.
So the bidding is about to start.
With these specialties,
you can use them to grease some palms or arrange something.
It's up to you.
But Jinghai Group must win the bid.
This time,
I can help you out.
I'm going to be transferred to the People's Procuratorate.
I may not have many opportunities
to help you out.
Leader. My good leader.
Then you may have more opportunities
to help us.
The Anti-Corruption Bureau.
Then can I still receive the local specialties from you?
All local specialties in the city
-It's all up to you. -Really?
Drive slowly, sir.
-Bye. -Sir.
We caught a drug dealer.
So we used the surveillance
to find out where he went yesterday.
We found someone inside
who looks like
the suspect
in your Notice of Assistance in Investigation.
You come and identify him.
Jiang.
Show me the footage of that person.
Come on, zoom in.
Zhang Daqing.
Let me ask you about someone.
Have you seen him?
Who are you?
We're from the Municipal Public Security Bureau.
Yes. He often comes to buy cigarettes.
When did he buy cigarettes from you last time?
Two or three weeks ago.
Where does he live?
The building in front.
Sometimes he is lazy,
so he will call me
and ask me to send him a pack.
How many people are there in his house?
Just him.
Okay, show us the way.
Mom.
Come out to help me watch the store.
-I'll be right back. -Okay.
Hurry up.
Zhang.
Is anyone home?
Zhang.
Are you
What's this smell?
The rancid smell with no ventilation for a long time.
Many drug addicts
have the same smell.
You just said Zhang Daqing
did drugs?
Not necessarily.
Look carefully.
One can live a life like this.
Pornography, gambling, or drugs, at least he has one of them.
You're right.
Besides the bargaining chips of the underground casino,
we also found
a cell phone, a watch, and other belongings
in Zhang Daqing's hidden room.
After confirmation,
it belongs to his brother, Zhang Xiaoqing.
Zhang Daqing?
I don't think he was held under duress.
He can move freely, right?
Regarding Zhang Xiaoqing's death,
he is the biggest suspect.
Yes.
His residence has been
under 24-hour surveillance.
But he never showed up again.
Now we think.
As long as we can find the casino
[The hidden body on the train case]
where these chips belong,
we should be able to find Zhang Daqing.
Stop playing.
Get down! Police!
-Freeze! -Don't move.
-Don't move. -Police!
-Freeze! -Squat!
Hands on the head.
Take them away.
Have you seen him?
Tell me if you see him. Have you?
No.
You. Have you seen this one?
No.
How are you going to thank me
for helping you so much?
Dinner on me.
Dinner? I don't have time.
You
give me
your informant's phone number.
You broke the rules.
The informants
are trained by our own team.
If I give them to you, what should we do?
An,
I've never hesitated
when you needed a favor.
Which one do you want?
Well.
Meng Yu.
She's an amateur.
She doesn't know anything else.
I know.
I just need one
who is inexperienced.
I'll try to arrange tasks for her
that are not high-risk.
I'll train her myself.
You train her?
Me. I'll train her myself.
Do you know
our relationship?
Who am I to her?
I've asked around. You two broke up a long time ago.
You two are not in a relationship.
I came to ask you for her number,
which means I'm upright.
Don't take it personally.
No, no.
Who is Meng De?
We grew up together.
So I gave her many nicknames.
She has a bad temper.
Cao Mengde.
Cao Mengde.
Good for you.
I call her.
If I call her Cao Mengde,
will she say yes?
Of course.
She will know you're one of us once you call her that.
Be good to her.
Hello.
Are you Cao Mengde?
Who is it?
I'm Meng Dehai.
Who are you?
I
(Sender: Go Qiqiang, stop looking for it, came to the abandoned factory alone)
Officer An.
I heard that you catch gamblers every day.
Do you have time so we can get together?
I may have what you want.
What do you want?
Let me introduce a friend to you.
You, sit there.
Let me introduce.
This is the owner of the casino.
The person you're looking for.
This is Officer An
from the Criminal Police Unit. He is my friend.
Officer Ah, please arrest me.
Please, arrest me.
Get up. Sit there.
Officer An, my name is Han Fei.
I opened a casino on Wanlong Road.
Zhang Daqing was my regular.
Then something happened to him.
I was afraid of being implicated.
So I closed the casino
and hid in Bobei.
It's Mr. Gao.
He invited me back.
So you have seen Zhang Daqing, right?
Yes, before.
Where is he now?
I really don't know where he is now.
I really don't know.
I just asked him.
Gao Qiqiang. You tortured him illegally.
Did I?
No.
I fell on my own.
I fell on my own.
Thank you, Mr. Gao.
I've been caught.
Thank you, Officer An.
Thank you, Officer An.
What's your intention?
You must use such a person
to prove that
you have nothing to do with Zhang Daqing?
Do I need to prove it?
Didn't you
prove it for me?
An Xin.
Thank you
for helping me last time.
I just want to return the favor.
But he really doesn't know
where Zhang Daqing is.
I have been thinking
that Zhang Daqing is wanted in the city.
Now Zhang Daqing is desperate.
Before he leaves Jinghai,
what do you think he wants to do the most?
You don't know it either?
I don't know it.
Why are you looking at me? I'm leaving.
If you had known.
Ms. Cheng.
Put on your clothes.
Ms. Cheng.
Is this place
safe?
You mean, safe?
For you,
is there any safe place
in this world?
But I
I promised to protect you
because you're still useful to me.
But you never change.
How dare you gamble in public?
Do you know
that you ruined my good game?
Ms. Cheng.
Ms. Cheng.
I know I was wrong.
I won't do it again.
I beg you, please save me.
Please save me.
It's safe here for now.
Unless you want to die.
I'm not going out.
I won't go out again.
Now the heat is on.
In a few days,
I'll arrange a car for you to leave Jinghai.
I can never come back again?
Do you want to come back and get shot?
No, Ms. Cheng.
Look.
Isn't it going to be demolished soon?
My demolition compensation
Are you still thinking about that?
No, I won't.
I don't want it anymore.
My life is more important.
That's right. My life is more important.
Ms. Cheng.
Are you going to kill me?
Am I an outlaw
like Gao Qiqiang?
Can you smile?
Every time you come out with me,
you pull a long face.
How many things are on your mind?
Can you give it to me now?
Handsome, please lend us
a while longer.
I have to clean the toilet.
You clean the toilet with this?
Why didn't you tell us earlier?
Thank you.
Wipe it off. Hurry up.
What about me?
Look.
Look at your face.
You always pull a long face.
So ugly, An Xin.
Can't you smile?
Who is this person?
The suspect, Zhang Daqing.
Why did I tell you this?
Zhang Daqing of Mang Village?
How did he become a suspect?
How do you know him?
When I went to the village for an interview,
all the villagers said he was nice
and warm-hearted.
They think highly of him.
Impossible. He is a gambler.
What did they say about his brother?
His brother is not good.
He is the opposite of him.
He is often involved in fights.
And he is
stealing.
Zhang Daqing and Zhang Xiaoqing.
Which one
is closer to
that chairman, Li Youtian, and his son?
I think it's Zhang Xiaoqing.
What's
Zhang Daqing's motive?
Are you warm in your coat?
Fine.
My trench coat is quite thin.
Be more careful next time.
Today,
the weather is getting cold.
An Xin, I mean I'm cold.
Then we can go in.
Let's go.
[Episode 19]
Chief Li, try my tea.
It's especially good.
Chairman.
What happened?
I just think of a little problem in my family.
I was afraid that Chief Li would be bothered
if I said it.
Chief Li, his son
is now still detained at your station, right?
Yes.
I heard he had nothing to do with it.
It's settled.
One is drug trafficking,
and another is harbouring.
He helped the suspect
destroy the evidence.
The drug was not found
on him.
You do something
and let him go.
Is that hard?
Mayor Zhao is also very concerned
about this.
Aren't your Criminal Police Unit and Narcotics Control Unit
in the same unit?
I'll try.
Come. Let's have dinner.
-Let's eat. -Okay.
-Come on. -Please.
Please.
My dear nephew.
All right, you can go back now.
I'll call you if anything happens.
Come on.
Come on.
What you have done today
I'll go back and tell my boss
word for word.
As long as we have our own people in the Public Security Bureau,
everything can go our way,
right?
Mang Village is quite complicated.
Up until now,
two murders
and one kidnapping case.
Li Hongwei also took drugs.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
As for demolition and relocation,
how many times
can they meet in their lives?
Of course, they will try to get as much compensation as they can.
Right?
By the way,
This.
A gas card from Li Youtian.
Take it.
No!
Secretary Wang,
I don't have a car.
I don't need it.
You're a chief,
and you don't have a car?
You pick one from their store.
Don't worry about the money.
Take it.
I'm leaving.
Why did you release Li Hongwei?
Didn't we investigate him clearly?
And he is a first-time offender.
He'd already had his lesson.
It's not about the drugs.
Zhang Daqing and Zhang Xiaoqing
are his men.
Now one is dead and one is missing.
Do you think it has nothing to do with him?
What does it have to do with him?
He just lent his car
to them.
He didn't know
they were going to commit kidnapping.
Besides, after Li Qing died,
he hid the car.
He was scared.
Isn't that human nature?
Isn't it normal?
I don't think you are normal.
No one is normal
in your eyes, right?
If you think I have a problem,
go report me to the Commission of Discipline Inspection.
Chief Li. Master.
Something's wrong.
Even Director Guo has rushed over.
People, please disperse!
Calm down!
Calm down, everyone!
Calm down.
Inspector Pan!
Director, it's too chaotic here.
Why don't you go back first?
Leave me to handle it.
What happened?
The construction team is laying fiber optic cables
but has cut off the cable.
The neighborhoods nearby
are out of power.
Please, be quiet!
What's going on? You say it.
The power has been out for two days.
They just fixed it yesterday.
But today they cut it off again.
Are they the construction team
or the demolition team?
Yes!
We have shops to run,
and we can't stand it anymore.
The meat in the fridge is rotten.
Where is the person in charge of the construction site?
Where is the person in charge?
Come to me!
Coming.
You are in charge of the construction site?
Hello, sir.
I'm Chengcheng
from the Jinghai Construction Engineering Group.
I don't care who you are.
Fix the cable now
and restore the power supply. Understand?
Sir, we won't make
such stupid mistakes twice in a row.
It's obvious that someone is messing with us.
You should be responsible
for the safety of the construction site.
Enough talking.
Fix the cable and restore the power supply.
Got it?
Yes.
What's the use of repairing it?
It will still be broken by them again.
We can't afford it.
Stop the construction!
Okay!
Quiet, everyone.
Listen to me.
First,
repair the cable and restore the power supply.
We'll monitor it.
And it won't be delayed.
Second,
the construction has to continue.
It concerns the development and construction
of the city.
Get lost if you don't stop the construction.
Or I'll bury you alive.
Don't fight!
Don't hit people!
Director Guo.
I'm really sorry about this.
Director Guo.
I'm fine.
I just sprained my wrist.
It's just a bit dislocated.
A splint will be enough.
But they won't let me leave.
Just stay here.
Take this opportunity
and do all the tests.
Have a few days off and take good care of yourself.
Listen.
I'm fine.
Unlike you,
I don't smoke or drink.
Come in.
Uncle Meng.
Secretary Meng.
Director.
Director Guo, how are you feeling?
How am I feeling? I feel fine.
It's just a scratch.
Who did this?
How arrogant!
We've caught him.
Since you're here,
you can cooperate with the police station
and interrogate them together.
I don't think
this is just a simple construction dispute.
How come you arrested me?
I'm the victim, okay?
Look, I am the one who got beaten up.
Enough. Be quiet.
Is there anyone in charge?
Look! Look!
Your police did this to me.
You are the one who hit the police?
You cops, hit me!
Do you know what it means to assault a police officer?
I have witnesses.
Those people
who have fought with you?
I'll sue you.
Let's wait and see.
It won't be over
if you don't compensate me.
Where do you live?
What?
You want to come to my house and threaten me?
I'm asking you! Where do you live?
Which compound?
Which building and unit?
Zhang Xiaofeng.
You don't live
near the construction area.
What does the power failure there
have anything to do with you?
Why are you here and stirring things up?
I'm here for justice.
Incite the people.
Gather a crowd to create a disturbance.
Do you know what the crime is?
Who ordered you?
No one.
I'm a righteous man.
I want someone from you.
Gao Qiqiang.
You guessed it.
The more trouble
Mang Village and Construction Engineering Group have made,
the worse it is
for the development of your Qinghua District.
We've approved
the planning of highways.
Next is demolition.
The demolition and relocation are a big trouble.
Li Youtian of Mang Village
and those wolves behind him
are eyeing the financial budget
in my pocket.
They can't wait to
tear me apart.
Secretary Meng.
Gao Qiqiang
is not a good solution.
You're right.
It's not a good idea.
But it's better than having no idea at all.
As you know,
as the secretary of the district committee,
I have long been a mere figurehead created by Zhao Lidong.
A few days ago, the District Mayor, Gong Kaijiang,
was invited to have tea with him.
How did you know?
He said it himself.
Although he's timid,
he's loyal to you.
Because he is timid,
he doesn't want to offend anyone.
Think about it.
If Zhao Lidong
led this renovation project,
the compensation for the people of Qinghua District
would be taken away.
Gao Qiqiang is not a saint.
It's only been a few days.
He had already
put Jinghai in turmoil.
The position is different,
so the perspective on problems
is different.
There's only a small distance
between security and governance.
But actually,
they are so far apart.
Yes, I'm in charge of the security.
I must separate the right from the wrong.
You see.
You are now in a different position and level.
So your tone is different.
What level?
Our relationship
Why did you mention
this nonsense?
Sit.
[Report on the "Construction Site Brawl"]
According to the investigation,
other than those
who were instigated,
most of them
are idle people.
Many of them
don't even live there.
Obviously, they were instigated
to cause trouble.
Who instigated them?
The leader is called Baldy Yong.
According to the public,
he is close to
Gao Qiqiang's man, Tang Xiaohu.
They often drink together.
However, based on
these construction disputes,
Tang Xiaohu
doesn't have such strong organization ability.
But there's another thing,
and it's troublesome.
Baldy Yong
claimed that we beat him
and insisted on suing us.
Nonsense!
I was at the scene.
The officers' behavior was fine.
But they have witnesses.
Quite a lot.
They have witnesses, and so do we.
Guo.
Let's be realistic.
You are also familiar
with the public opinion environment too.
Once there is a conflict between
the police and the public,
even if we shared the same blame,
there would be many people
who believe that the bureaucrats shield one another.
What should we do next?
What do you think?
They are making a scene
because they want us
to let Gao Qiqiang go
so he can establish prestige in the Construction Engineering Group.
Chen Shuting has applied
for bail pending trial.
We haven't agreed yet.
What do you think?
Fine.
Do what you should do.
Rules and regulations
can't be led by the public.
Cousin.
Why are you here?
My mom sent some chilies from the countryside.
She said you liked it too,
so she asked me to bring some to you.
You came to me in broad daylight
without a call!
Do you think you live too long?
Gao Qiqiang's whole family
was arrested by the police.
No one will notice me.
Although Gao Qiqiang is in prison,
his men are still out there.
Now is the most dangerous time.
You need to learn to protect yourself.
Listen to me.
This is the last time.
Okay.
I'll go back first.
I've remitted the money
for my aunt's third phase of chemotherapy.
Remember to go back and check her out.
Go now.
Don't be a joker with me.
Sorry for the delay in your trip.
Later,
I'll take you to Disneyland.
It's nothing.
Gao Qiqiang, I warn you.
Don't make me worry so much.
How many times have I told you
Nothing happened, right?
Yes.
[Jinghai forces to]
I heard.
You did a good job.
That's my duty.
Brother, what should we do next?
If they want to fight,
we'll fight with them
until they submit.
You just came out. Who are you going to fight with?
Everyone.
Mr. Gao.
Mr. Gao.
Just cut to the chase.
You guys
have been the old timers
since the Construction Engineering Group
was first established.
A toast to you.
Thank you
for taking care of me
and making things difficult for me.
I'll make it short.
I'm going to take down Chengcheng.
You three, choose a side.
Xiao is the oldest.
You joined the company as soon as it was established.
You were the warehouseman,
logistician,
and purchaser.
Your positions are the easiest positions
to get kickbacks.
But I didn't expect you
to be so greedy.
You earn over 1 million yuan a year.
How can you have
tens of millions in savings?
What will happen if Uncle Tai knows?
Mr. Gao, please.
Please spare me.
Whatever you say.
I'll listen to whatever you say.
Mr. Gao,
a toast to you.
Let's eat.
OK.
Du is the lecher.
It's all written on his face.
But it can lead to bitter consequences.
This girl is so beautiful.
So beautiful.
How did you
I heard that
she confronted your wife
and asked you to get a divorce.
She asked you to pay her 30 million yuan, right?
I've fixed it for you.
From now on,
she won't bother you anymore.
Be careful with the women you find in the future.
Really?
Thank you.
I'll drink one with you.
It is people like Mr. Wang
that I respect the most,
who are well educated, not greedy,
follow the law, and have principles.
I'm most afraid of this kind of person,
who can't be forced or bribed.
Let's eat.
What?
Wait! What are you doing?
Mr. Gao.
I'll support you!
Thank you.
Brother.
Done?
Lu,
did you work as the boss's driver
before becoming mine?
I used to drive for the town mayor.
You have been my driver for two months.
Two and a half months.
You stand over there.
Find someone
to search my car
and see if there's anything else in it.
Okay.
It's fine.
Brother Qiang. A tapping device.
That kind can standby for seven days with full power.
Only now the power is out.
You put it in?
I've never seen it.
Then it must be my sister-in-law.
I don't know.
Then it must be Xiaochen.
I don't know.
I don't like this answer.
Then don't blame us.
Boss, I really don't know.
It shouldn't be him.
He drives for me every day.
If the battery is dead,
he will definitely charge it.
It must be someone
who couldn't get close to my car.
Lu,
tell me if you need money.
I'm happy
with the salary you gave me.
Then work harder in the future.
Check my car several more times every day.
I don't want to see
that thing again.
Got it.
Guys, the boss is back.
Let's work hard
and make up for the work
that we missed the last two days, okay?
-Come on. -Okay.
Dear neighbors, come here.
Come and get the gifts.
Okay, thank you.
Recently,
we're very sorry.
We have been working here,
which has disturbed your normal life.
We're sorry.
Today, our construction group
has prepared some small gifts
for you.
I hope
you can continue to support us.
-Thank you. -Thank you, Boss.
Okay, thank you.
Let me say one more thing.
When the project is over,
in your compound,
our group will give you
three ping-pong tables.
Okay?
Okay!
Thank you.
Come on.
There are rumors going around.
I didn't pitch in
with your family's accident this time.
I was afraid you might misunderstand me.
Who said that nonsense to you?
Daddy!
If I know,
I'll tear their mouths apart!
You are my godfather.
Since I was young, you taught me how to be a person and do things.
We're family.
There's no misunderstanding.
Dad, don't worry.
Qiqiang won't think so either.
If he dares to think like that,
I'll skin him alive.
After Gao Qiqiang came back,
he did this and that
and caused a lot of trouble.
Yes.
But it's all for
our family business.
The construction site has been suspended
while he has been away.
So when he comes back,
he has to solve them one by one.
The site just resumed construction.
Did you find the light cable in the warehouse?
We didn't lose it in the first place.
They work sloppily.
So they misunderstood the transfer record.
No wonder Mr. Xiao and Mr. Du
always say good things about Gao Qiqiang
in front of me.
It seems that
he has done a lot of good things lately.
Daddy.
Recently,
he wants to win
the highway bid.
Does that mean
we have to deal with Mang Village again?
Yes.
But the government is supporting us this time.
Don't worry.
Come.
He didn't suspect you anymore?
As you said,
I put an unpowered bug
in the car.
So it's over.
Gao Qiqiang.
He is just too confident
in his own judgment.
Sister.
I'll be fine, right?
He said in the car
that if they want to fight,
we'll fight to the end,
until they submit.
Does this "they" mean you?
Maybe they
sent you here to tell me this on purpose.
No way.
He treats me the same as before.
We've been fighting to this point.
Gao Qiqiang and I
both have no way out.
What are you doing?
Boss.
Look at you.
My brother has prepared some local specialties for you.
You and your brother
are so generous.
Boss.
It's our duty.
-Look at this. -Sir.
It's our duty.
It's not just for you.
I heard
the plan for the highway is out.
So the bidding is about to start.
With these specialties,
you can use them to grease some palms or arrange something.
It's up to you.
But Jinghai Group must win the bid.
This time,
I can help you out.
I'm going to be transferred to the People's Procuratorate.
I may not have many opportunities
to help you out.
Leader. My good leader.
Then you may have more opportunities
to help us.
The Anti-Corruption Bureau.
Then can I still receive the local specialties from you?
All local specialties in the city
-It's all up to you. -Really?
Drive slowly, sir.
-Bye. -Sir.
We caught a drug dealer.
So we used the surveillance
to find out where he went yesterday.
We found someone inside
who looks like
the suspect
in your Notice of Assistance in Investigation.
You come and identify him.
Jiang.
Show me the footage of that person.
Come on, zoom in.
Zhang Daqing.
Let me ask you about someone.
Have you seen him?
Who are you?
We're from the Municipal Public Security Bureau.
Yes. He often comes to buy cigarettes.
When did he buy cigarettes from you last time?
Two or three weeks ago.
Where does he live?
The building in front.
Sometimes he is lazy,
so he will call me
and ask me to send him a pack.
How many people are there in his house?
Just him.
Okay, show us the way.
Mom.
Come out to help me watch the store.
-I'll be right back. -Okay.
Hurry up.
Zhang.
Is anyone home?
Zhang.
Are you
What's this smell?
The rancid smell with no ventilation for a long time.
Many drug addicts
have the same smell.
You just said Zhang Daqing
did drugs?
Not necessarily.
Look carefully.
One can live a life like this.
Pornography, gambling, or drugs, at least he has one of them.
You're right.
Besides the bargaining chips of the underground casino,
we also found
a cell phone, a watch, and other belongings
in Zhang Daqing's hidden room.
After confirmation,
it belongs to his brother, Zhang Xiaoqing.
Zhang Daqing?
I don't think he was held under duress.
He can move freely, right?
Regarding Zhang Xiaoqing's death,
he is the biggest suspect.
Yes.
His residence has been
under 24-hour surveillance.
But he never showed up again.
Now we think.
As long as we can find the casino
[The hidden body on the train case]
where these chips belong,
we should be able to find Zhang Daqing.
Stop playing.
Get down! Police!
-Freeze! -Don't move.
-Don't move. -Police!
-Freeze! -Squat!
Hands on the head.
Take them away.
Have you seen him?
Tell me if you see him. Have you?
No.
You. Have you seen this one?
No.
How are you going to thank me
for helping you so much?
Dinner on me.
Dinner? I don't have time.
You
give me
your informant's phone number.
You broke the rules.
The informants
are trained by our own team.
If I give them to you, what should we do?
An,
I've never hesitated
when you needed a favor.
Which one do you want?
Well.
Meng Yu.
She's an amateur.
She doesn't know anything else.
I know.
I just need one
who is inexperienced.
I'll try to arrange tasks for her
that are not high-risk.
I'll train her myself.
You train her?
Me. I'll train her myself.
Do you know
our relationship?
Who am I to her?
I've asked around. You two broke up a long time ago.
You two are not in a relationship.
I came to ask you for her number,
which means I'm upright.
Don't take it personally.
No, no.
Who is Meng De?
We grew up together.
So I gave her many nicknames.
She has a bad temper.
Cao Mengde.
Cao Mengde.
Good for you.
I call her.
If I call her Cao Mengde,
will she say yes?
Of course.
She will know you're one of us once you call her that.
Be good to her.
Hello.
Are you Cao Mengde?
Who is it?
I'm Meng Dehai.
Who are you?
I
(Sender: Go Qiqiang, stop looking for it, came to the abandoned factory alone)
Officer An.
I heard that you catch gamblers every day.
Do you have time so we can get together?
I may have what you want.
What do you want?
Let me introduce a friend to you.
You, sit there.
Let me introduce.
This is the owner of the casino.
The person you're looking for.
This is Officer An
from the Criminal Police Unit. He is my friend.
Officer Ah, please arrest me.
Please, arrest me.
Get up. Sit there.
Officer An, my name is Han Fei.
I opened a casino on Wanlong Road.
Zhang Daqing was my regular.
Then something happened to him.
I was afraid of being implicated.
So I closed the casino
and hid in Bobei.
It's Mr. Gao.
He invited me back.
So you have seen Zhang Daqing, right?
Yes, before.
Where is he now?
I really don't know where he is now.
I really don't know.
I just asked him.
Gao Qiqiang. You tortured him illegally.
Did I?
No.
I fell on my own.
I fell on my own.
Thank you, Mr. Gao.
I've been caught.
Thank you, Officer An.
Thank you, Officer An.
What's your intention?
You must use such a person
to prove that
you have nothing to do with Zhang Daqing?
Do I need to prove it?
Didn't you
prove it for me?
An Xin.
Thank you
for helping me last time.
I just want to return the favor.
But he really doesn't know
where Zhang Daqing is.
I have been thinking
that Zhang Daqing is wanted in the city.
Now Zhang Daqing is desperate.
Before he leaves Jinghai,
what do you think he wants to do the most?
You don't know it either?
I don't know it.
Why are you looking at me? I'm leaving.
If you had known.
Ms. Cheng.
Put on your clothes.
Ms. Cheng.
Is this place
safe?
You mean, safe?
For you,
is there any safe place
in this world?
But I
I promised to protect you
because you're still useful to me.
But you never change.
How dare you gamble in public?
Do you know
that you ruined my good game?
Ms. Cheng.
Ms. Cheng.
I know I was wrong.
I won't do it again.
I beg you, please save me.
Please save me.
It's safe here for now.
Unless you want to die.
I'm not going out.
I won't go out again.
Now the heat is on.
In a few days,
I'll arrange a car for you to leave Jinghai.
I can never come back again?
Do you want to come back and get shot?
No, Ms. Cheng.
Look.
Isn't it going to be demolished soon?
My demolition compensation
Are you still thinking about that?
No, I won't.
I don't want it anymore.
My life is more important.
That's right. My life is more important.
Ms. Cheng.
Are you going to kill me?
Am I an outlaw
like Gao Qiqiang?
Can you smile?
Every time you come out with me,
you pull a long face.
How many things are on your mind?
Can you give it to me now?
Handsome, please lend us
a while longer.
I have to clean the toilet.
You clean the toilet with this?
Why didn't you tell us earlier?
Thank you.
Wipe it off. Hurry up.
What about me?
Look.
Look at your face.
You always pull a long face.
So ugly, An Xin.
Can't you smile?
Who is this person?
The suspect, Zhang Daqing.
Why did I tell you this?
Zhang Daqing of Mang Village?
How did he become a suspect?
How do you know him?
When I went to the village for an interview,
all the villagers said he was nice
and warm-hearted.
They think highly of him.
Impossible. He is a gambler.
What did they say about his brother?
His brother is not good.
He is the opposite of him.
He is often involved in fights.
And he is
stealing.
Zhang Daqing and Zhang Xiaoqing.
Which one
is closer to
that chairman, Li Youtian, and his son?
I think it's Zhang Xiaoqing.
What's
Zhang Daqing's motive?
Are you warm in your coat?
Fine.
My trench coat is quite thin.
Be more careful next time.
Today,
the weather is getting cold.
An Xin, I mean I'm cold.
Then we can go in.
Let's go.
