"Boss, we've investigated the matter thoroughly!" Sovokov called Zhao Cheng, who was in Beiping, directly via satellite phone.
"What's going on? Who did it? Are there any foreign forces involved?" Zhao Cheng asked sternly.
Zhao Cheng took the incident of his eldest daughter nearly being shot very seriously. If it were just someone trying to prevent them from buying the Dayu Group's shipping company, that would be a minor matter; he feared it might have been orchestrated by foreign intelligence agencies.
Zhao Cheng knew exactly what kind of people those intelligence agencies in the U.S. were. Although he wasn't that high-ranking, he held a very important position.
Moreover, it's no secret that he brought back a large amount of data and a half-finished aircraft carrier to China; it's easy to find out.
Aircraft carriers are not a big deal, after all, Western countries have always believed that even if the mainland develops aircraft carriers, it will not be enough, and it will take many years to form real combat capability, not just ships.
But those technical documents were the truly fatal flaw. They had already ruined Goose and considered Goose's stuff their own, just like they divided up Hanscat after World War II.
But no one expected that Zhao Cheng would take away so much data in such a short time. Although it is unknown how Zhao Cheng took it, there are always clues to why so many technical experts were brought here.
Therefore, the Ugly Kingdom was quite interested in Zhao Cheng's methods, not to mention Zhao Cheng's formidable fighting prowess.
Although much of what Zhao Cheng did involved top-secret information, it couldn't withstand scrutiny, especially since someone was leaking information to outsiders.
Especially after the Tianqiao Club was exposed, no one in China said anything. After all, Zhao Cheng was doing everything according to the instructions of his superiors, and Mingzhu is not in the mainland, so no one was willing to mess with Zhao Cheng. After all, Zhao Cheng is now a member of the 55 generation.
You should know that there aren't many of those people left now, not to mention that most of them are no longer as senior as Zhao Cheng.
In addition, given Zhao Cheng's status as the founder of China's special forces, who would dare to have a problem with him?
But just because there's nothing that can be done about him doesn't mean there's nothing that can be done about his children. So Zhao Cheng's concerns are not unfounded, which is why the Zhao family rarely goes abroad.
“Boss, according to our investigation, this might just be a misunderstanding. Jinmen Group Vice Chairman Zhang Shouji wanted to get rid of Chairman Shi Dongchu, so he arranged for an assassin. However, due to the assassin's stupidity, the best opportunity was wasted, and the young lady was almost injured. The assassin went into hiding, and both the South Korean gangs and the Tianqiao Society's investigations were directed at people who might have grudges against us. No one thought this was an accidental injury, so it wasn't until recently that someone slipped up, and we were able to follow the clues and find the assassin. Most importantly, we found that sniper rifle!” Sovokov said helplessly.
He felt the assassin was incredibly stupid. Why did you switch guns in the first place? Didn't you know guns need calibration after switching? Did you think that just because you bought two guns together, they were the same?
So many people, so much time, and this is the result of the investigation? Doesn't that make everyone involved feel it's not worth it? What is this? It's not that we're afraid of clever people using all sorts of methods, but rather that we're afraid of fools coming up with a clever idea?
"Zhang Shouji of Kinmen Group?" Zhao Cheng chuckled to himself. This guy can do something this big?
Zhao Cheng also knew about Zhang Shouji. After all, the movie "New World" could be said to be the most successful remake. Both were "Infernal Affairs". Look at the Korean remake and then look at the American remake. They are worlds apart.
Zhang Shouji, whether in the film or in reality, is the clown. He is utterly unworthy of his position.
“That’s right. Zhang Shouji originally wanted that assassin to continue looking for opportunities to assassinate Shi Dongchu, but now that we’ve found out, there shouldn’t be any chance!” Sovokov said with a smile.
"Arrest the assassin and Zhang Shouji, interrogate them to find out all the details, and personally hand them over to Shi Dongchu. Let him handle it himself! After this, you can go back to work in Mingzhu!" Zhao Cheng hung up the phone after saying that.
He hadn't expected this. He'd initially thought some intelligence agency was targeting his daughter. And this was it?
However, this matter did not come without benefits for our family. According to the information reported by Wei Hong, the South Korean National Intelligence Service should be the one who made the Da Yu Group back down. No one else, whether it is the Seoul Police Department or the Jinmen Group, has that much influence.
Therefore, Wei Hong's guess was correct. This favor should be repaid in the future. However, Zhao Cheng's instructions were also very clear: favors from the Zhao family are acceptable, but not for the national interest.
Although Zhao Cheng had used many underhanded tactics and had a clandestine armed force, his armed forces had no intention of entering the mainland; this was in accordance with the rules of the game.
So even though there were over 100,000 people at Tianqiao, and a small elite armed force in the no-man's-land, no one in the country said anything, simply because Zhao Cheng did not break the rules.
This is how it is now, and it will naturally be the same in the future. Zhao Cheng still knows what he's doing.
Sovokov, following Zhao Cheng's instructions, arrested Zhang Shouji that very night. His underlings initially tried to resist, but after Fox led the way in killing more than ten of Zhang Shouji's confidants, the others became obedient.
When Zhang Shouji saw that those who had captured him were mercenaries, he was terrified. Especially after seeing Jin Yongzhe, who had been tortured, Zhang Shouji understood everything.
Zhang Shouji had originally hoped to exchange his life for the condition of joining the Zhao family, but Sovokov's words extinguished all his illusions.
"You're a piece of trash who can't even beat Shi Dongchu, so what makes you think you have the ability to work for the Zhao family? The Zhao family doesn't take in losers!"
Ultimately, Zhang Shouji and Jin Yongzhe were captured by Sovokov and taken to the Kinmen Group.
Meanwhile, the Kinmen Group, led by Shi Dongchu, met with Ding Qing and Li Zhongjiu to meet Sovokov.
"Chairman Kim, our boss has a few words for you. Keep your dogs in check, and you're on your own! If you can't handle it, we'll have to deal with it ourselves!" Sovokov showed no politeness to Shi Dongchu.
Not to mention that he used to be a KGB member feared by everyone, even now, his boss is Zhao Cheng, the deputy commander of a major country! So, when facing gangsters like Shi Dongchu, that sense of superiority is ingrained in his bones.
When Shi Dongchu saw the information Sovokov gave him, he broke out in a cold sweat!
He never expected that Zhang Shouji would send an assassin to follow him for more than half a year! Even more unexpectedly, this assassin turned out to be the same person who fired the shot in front of the Chinese restaurant!
