In 1992, in a building in Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong, a man had just come out of an elevator when two masked men with guns suddenly burst out, fired several shots at the man without saying a word, and then left without looking back.
This scene frightened everyone present, and the scene was instantly chaotic. By the time the police arrived, the killer had long since disappeared.
The man who was shot had already died of exhaustion because the injuries were all concentrated in important positions such as the head and chest.
The police immediately blocked the scene to investigate, but after some visits, they did not find any valuable clues. No one knows when the two killers mixed into the building, let alone where they were ambushed after they came in.
Even when the shootings occurred, no one noticed where they suddenly appeared. Not to mention that after the shooting, the inside and outside of the building were in chaos, and there was no trace of the murderer's escape.

There is no progress in the investigation of the murderer, but the identity of the deceased has been confirmed, and this person is Cai Ziming, the boss of Fuyi Film Production Company.
The identity of the deceased surprised the police, but also realized the seriousness of the shooting, which gave them a lot of headaches. However, it still had to withstand great pressure and send a large number of police forces to investigate the case.
Cai Ziming
The reason why the police find the case tricky is because Cai Ziming's identity is very sensitive.
Very early, Cai Ziming went to the Netherlands to develop, not only to do business well, but also to have their own power, in the Netherlands is considered to be the number one person in the jianghu, it can be said that black and white can eat both.
Later, the development of Hong Kong's entertainment industry, the film and television industry is even more prosperous, huge profit margins, attracting various forces in the society to compete in the film and television industry, and strive to get a piece of the pie.
The bosses behind many film companies were mysterious identities that the Hong Kong government at that time could not afford to offend. It was also at this time that Cai Ziming began to dabble in Hong Kong movies.
Due to his great influence overseas, financial resources, and his own business acumen, his Fuyi Film Company quickly gained a foothold in the Hong Kong market.
Although it cannot be compared with industry giants such as Shao and Jiahe, his sensitive identity still ensures the stable development of the company.

Cai Ziming is very decisive in doing things, but also has his own opinion, he has a strong sensitivity to business opportunities, decided a good thing, will be implemented immediately, never give up, and never sell anyone's face, such a style of behavior is very beneficial to the company.
He also personally recruited a lot of powerful actors, which brought a lot of benefits to the company. But such an approach will also offend people, not as strong as Cai Ziming, watching him make money will be red-eyed.
Those who are equal in strength or more powerful than Cai Ziming, watching his rise will regard him as a thorn in his eye, a thorn in his flesh, and he is eager to get rid of it quickly, which also lays the groundwork for Cai Ziming's future encounters.

For Cai Ziming's death, many people believe that the rise of his company has blocked the way of others. Just like a saying circulating in the jianghu, "Cutting off people's money is equivalent to killing their parents", so Cai Ziming's death is very involved, and it must be related to a certain gang force.
Amid all the buzz, the police investigation continues. Just when they were anxious, a phone call into the newspaper caused an uproar.

The caller claimed to be the murderer of Cai Ziming's shooting, and they were the forces of the "Henan Gang".
At that time, a Hong Kong film producer took the initiative to find them and promised them 1 million Hong Kong dollars to let them do Tsai Ziming, and they did not hesitate to agree for the money.
Jiahe Film Company
But after the fact, the client reneged on his promise, saying that the good 1 million only paid a deposit of 500,000 yuan, and the money behind it was gone.
They were angry, so they called to tell the news. However, they are not worried about the police finding themselves, because soon they will return to the mainland, and the Hong Kong police will not be able to find them.
Hong Kong Police
The murderer's attitude is so arrogant and so dismissive of the police, which shows the strength of the forces behind him. Hearing that the murder was caused by a problem with the film, the police immediately followed this clue.
It soon became clear that Cai Ziming was acting as Jet Li's agent, and Jet Li had just recently had a conflict with Jiahe over the termination of the contract.
Although there was no direct evidence, the police immediately sent someone to protect Jet Li. They took Jet Li out of his residence in Hong Kong and stayed in a hotel secretly arranged by the police, where several police officers were protected 24 hours a day.
At this time, Jet Li was very painful, although he and Cai Ziming had known each other not long ago, but the friendship between the two was already very deep.

They all love the film business, have the same ambitions, not only talk very well in their work careers, but also appreciate each other very much in private.
What's more, in his most difficult time, it was Cai Ziming who took the initiative to help him resolve the crisis, and even more to help his career start again, which was a blessing for him.
Now that Cai Ziming has died tragically at the murderer's gun, he can't do anything, jet Li feels very sad.

Over time, the police investigation into Cai Ziming's case has also come to fruition. According to the information released by the police, the murderer is a professional killer from abroad, specializing in the business of collecting money to kill people.
Because cai Ziming had a problem with a business in the Netherlands, as an intermediary, he accepted money from the buyer at that time, but the other party did not see anyone come out to deliver the goods.
So the buyer believed that Cai Ziming colluded with the seller and deliberately hacked his money, so he found a killer to kill Cai Ziming. The specific identity of the murderer is unknown, and it has never been found.
Cai Ziming and Jet Li
Although Cai Ziming's case was superficially solved and the murderer was found to be proven, clear-eyed people know that this is just a way to give the public a decent statement. The truth of the incident is much more than that.
Many people say that Cai Ziming's death has a great relationship with his help Jet Li break away from Jiahe, because cai Ziming's appearance has caused Jiahe a huge loss. Why? Then we have to mention the contradiction between Jet Li and Jiahe.
In 1979, Jet Li, who won five gold medals at the National Games, was favored by a well-known director, and soon after, "Shaolin Temple" starring him came out.
At that time, the movie ticket was only a dime, but "Shaolin Temple" piled up on this dime and earned 161 million at the box office.
The movie became popular, but Jet Li's career was not smooth. A few years later he met David Luo and signed a contract with Jiahe at his instigation.
At that time, Jiahe promised Jet Li that he would make four films in two years, and even if the two years came and the film was not finished, they would still pay an honorarium of 6 million Hong Kong dollars, and the film would continue to be filmed until it was all completed.

The conditions were considerable and the profits were lucrative, and Jet Li naturally agreed happily. After that, he began to work diligently under the banner of Jiahe.
It was also during this period that the image of a young and handsome, explosive sense of justice, but humorous and funny Huang Feihong appeared in front of people and quickly spread all over the country, and Jiahe also reaped huge profits.
Two years will soon pass, and seeing that the contract is about to expire, Jiahe thinks not about how to retain Jet Li through the renewal of the contract, but wants to use dirty means to suppress and make him submit, so as to achieve the minimum expenditure and obtain greater profits.
They not only withheld 3 million yuan of film remuneration, but also turned their faces and did not recognize people, saying that the film was not finished as scheduled, Jet Li did not perform the contract, and even directly seized people's passports, so that he could not return to the mainland.
Jet Li when he was young
In their eyes, Jiahe has a big career in Hong Kong, and Jet Li is a "mainland boy" and is not his opponent at all.
Indeed, although Jet Li forcefully quit the filming of "Boys Should Be Self-Reliant", he was also tortured during that time, and he even said that "he didn't want anything, he just wanted to go back to the mainland, where is my home."
After the film was stopped, Jiahe suffered huge losses, and their contradictions with Jet Li became more and more intense.
It was at this time that Cai Ziming appeared, and he did not hesitate to extend an olive branch to Jet Li, not only protecting him, but also bearing all the expenses of his family.
Subsequently, he used the media to exert pressure on Jiahe, and even more "went to the meeting with a single knife" to negotiate with Jiahe.
In the end, it not only successfully recovered the arrears of 3 million pieces of remuneration, but also successfully let Jiahe and Jet Li terminate their contracts. Although the matter was solved perfectly, it buried a huge hidden danger.
After the termination, Cai Ziming took on the role of Jet Li's agent, he tailored a new movie for Jet Li, and actively invited major well-known actors to participate, of which Stallone and Yang Ziqiong were all listed.
Just the night before the shooting, Cai Ziming was still discussing the specifics of the new movie.

After the shooting, Jet Li was in a slump for a long time, but he did not give up, packed up his mood and restarted his career.
Soon he was popular all over the motherland, and then he went to the international market, achieved great results in Hollywood, and successfully realized cooperation with Yang Ziqiong and Stallone.

For many years, he has been using his own practical actions to complete the agreement with his friends that year. Presumably, if Cai Ziming had a spirit in heaven, he would definitely feel relieved.
