In the hit drama "Hurricane", Zhao Lidong's move of sending Dark Village to kill Wang Li really surprised the audience. On the surface, Wang Li is Zhao Lidong's person, why did he want to kill the killer? And the one who really had a holiday with Wang Li was not Yang Jian? This series of questions makes the plot confusing. However, savoring the conversation between Zhao Lidong and Huang Lao, we suddenly realized that there was such a deep calculation hidden behind this. Is Zhao Lidong's move to protect himself, or does he want to take the opportunity to frame others? How will his actions affect Gao Qiqiang, Yang Jian, and even Meng Dehai? How will this power game affect the situation in the entire Jinghai City?
1. The key dialogue between Zhao Lidong and Huang Lao
Everyone in the world knows that Zhao Lidong in "Hurricane" is a scheming person, but they don't know that the conversation between him and Huang Lao actually hides a mystery. On that day, when Jinghai City was in turmoil, Zhao Lidong was called by Huang Lao to his old house.
Huang Lao's old mansion is located in the suburbs of Jinghai City and is a typical Jiangnan garden-style building. Zhao Lidong stepped into the courtyard and saw rockeries and flowing water, pavilions and pavilions, quite a bit of paradise. Huang Lao was drinking tea at the stone table in the courtyard, and when he saw Zhao Lidong coming, he beckoned him to sit down.
"Lidong, you're just in time." Huang Lao said with a smile, "Try this tea, it is Longjing brought by someone from Hangzhou, this year's new tea." "
Zhao Lidong took the teacup and took a sip respectfully, only to feel that the tea was fragrant and fragrant. He couldn't help but exclaim, "Good tea!" Huang Lao's taste is really extraordinary. "
Huang Lao smiled slightly, changed his words, and said, "Lidong, you and I have known each other for many years, and I treat you as my own." I called you here today because I have something to tell you. "
Zhao Lidong's heart sank, knowing that Huang Lao was going to get down to business. I only heard Huang Lao continue: "Now is an extraordinary time! You, Dehai and Gao Qiqiang can't engage in infighting. Everyone is in the same boat, and once the quarrel is over, the situation is out of control. "
Zhao Lidong listened, his face was silent, but there was an undercurrent surging in his heart. He knew very well the weight of Huang Lao's words, which could be described as meaningful. Huang Lao, as an old qualification in Jinghai City, has always been a figure who is reluctant to come forward. Now that he has called himself specifically to say this, it is obviously a matter of great importance.
Seeing that Zhao Lidong was silent, Huang Lao said earnestly: "Lidong, you are a smart person. I think you know this truth better than anyone else. Over the years, our Jinghai City has been able to have today's development, relying on everyone's concerted efforts. But now that the wind is tight outside, the task force is keeping an eye on it, and we have to unite even more! "
When Zhao Lidong heard this, he couldn't help but think of Gao Qiqiang's call to him a few days ago. At that time, Gao Qiqiang wanted to ask him to come forward to solve the matter of Tang Xiaolong's arrest by the Jinghai City Public Security Bureau, but he ignored it. Now that I think about it, maybe my attitude is too tough?
Seeing that Zhao Lidong was thoughtful, Huang Lao added: "I know that you still have some guilt in your heart about Gao Qiqiang's drive away of Wang Li. But now is not the time for us to worry about that! If it is because of this little thing, it will be your own people beating your own people. "
When Zhao Lidong heard this, he couldn't help but think of Wang Li. The subordinate he once had high hopes for has now become a potential hidden danger. He secretly calculated in his heart that if he could take the opportunity to get rid of Wang Li, he could not only eliminate the hidden dangers, but also attack Gao Qiqiang and Yang Jian by taking advantage of the situation.
Huang Lao saw Zhao Lidong's expression change, thinking that he was moved by what he said, so he said with relief: "Lidong, it's good that you can understand what I mean." We have to work together. Otherwise, once something goes wrong, everyone will be finished together. "
When Zhao Lidong heard this, he showed a look of sudden realization on his face, and nodded again and again: "Elder Huang is right, I didn't think it through. Rest assured, I will definitely think about your words. "
Huang Lao listened, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face. He patted Zhao Lidong on the shoulder and said, "Okay, it's good that you can think so." Remember, the big picture counts! "
Zhao Lidong got up to say goodbye, but he already had an idea in his heart. He decided to send his right-hand man Dark Zhuang to Lishui County in disguise as a sanitation worker to get rid of Wang Li. In this way, it can not only eliminate hidden dangers, but also take the opportunity to blame others, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
In this way, this seemingly ordinary conversation between Zhao Lidong and Huang Lao is actually a mystery. It not only reveals the intricate power relations in Jinghai City, but also lays the groundwork for the subsequent development of the plot. And whether Zhao Lidong can get his wish, and what kind of impact his plan will have on others, all of this remains to be further developed in the plot.
Second, Zhao Lidong's thoughts and calculations
After Zhao Lidong left Huang Lao's old house, he did not go back to the office directly, but drove to a remote farm on the outskirts of Jinghai City. It was the place where he had secretly met his confidants for many years, away from the hustle and bustle of the city and away from the prying eyes.
The owner of the farm is Zhao Lidong's old subordinate, a special soldier who has been retired for many years. There are several old locust trees with lush branches in the courtyard, and a few bamboo chairs and a stone table are placed under the trees. Zhao Lidong sat at the stone table and waited quietly.
A short time later, a middle-aged man with a burly figure and a grim face walked in. This is Zhao Lidong's right-hand man, Li Ming, nicknamed "Dark Village".
"Boss, are you looking for me?" Li Ming asked respectfully.
Zhao Lidong nodded and motioned for Li Ming to sit down. "There's a mission for you," he said in a low voice, "Go to Lishui County and get rid of Wang Li." "
When Li Ming heard this, his expression remained unchanged, but a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes. Wang Li was Zhao Lidong's right-hand man, why do you want to get rid of him now?
As if seeing Li Ming's doubts, Zhao Lidong continued: "Wang Li knows too much. Now the task force is investigating Jinghai's power system, and if he speaks, we will all be finished. "
Li Ming nodded thoughtfully. Zhao Lidong continued: "You have to disguise yourself as a sanitation worker and quietly approach Wang Li. Be quick and ruthless, and don't give him any chance to speak. "
"Understood," Li Ming replied, "But, boss, will this raise suspicions?" After all, Wang Li is your man. "
Zhao Lidong sneered, "It is precisely because he is my person that no one will suspect me." Everyone will only think that it was Yang Jian who did it in order to keep his secret. "
Li Ming suddenly realized, and couldn't help but admire Zhao Lidong's strategy. This trick can not only get rid of hidden dangers, but also frame the opponent, which is indeed clever.
Zhao Lidong continued: "You have to remember that the purpose of this operation is not only to get rid of Wang Li, but more importantly, to put Gao Qiqiang and Yang Jian on their backs from this black cauldron. "
Li Ming nodded in understanding. Zhao Lidong told again: "The time of the action is set for three days later, and the people of the task force should have arrived in Lishui County by then." You'll want to get your hands on it before them, but not too early so as not to arouse suspicion. "
After the discussion, Li Ming got up and left. Zhao Lidong sat alone in the courtyard, full of thoughts. He remembered that Gao Qiqiang drove Wang Li away before, and he was dissatisfied with Gao Qiqiang at that time. Now taking this opportunity, not only can I get rid of the hidden danger of Wang Li, but also avenge the original revenge.
Three days later, Li Ming came to Lishui County as promised. Dressed in the uniform of a sanitation worker and pushing a cleaning cart, he wandered around Wang Li's home. When he saw Wang Li going out alone, Li Ming quietly followed.
In a secluded alley, Li Ming quickly struck. A sharp dagger flashed, and Wang Li didn't even have time to let out an exclamation before he fell in a pool of blood. Li Ming quickly dealt with the scene, and then left with the cleaning cart casually.
On the afternoon of the day Wang Li was killed, the people of the task force came to Lishui County. When they learned the news of Wang Li's murder, everyone was shocked. An Xin rushed to the scene of the crime as soon as possible, looking at the blood stains on the ground, countless questions flashed through her mind.
Why was Wang Li killed at this time? Who's the hand? What secret is it to cover up?
At this time, Zhao Lidong was leisurely sipping tea in the office. He knew that with Wang Li's death, an even bigger storm was coming. Gao Qiqiang and Yang Jian will inevitably be involved, while he can observe in the dark and wait for an opportunity to act.
Zhao Lidong's move not only reflects his meticulous thinking, but also shows his old spiciness, ruthlessness and ruthlessness in the power struggle. He took advantage of Wang Li's death to not only get rid of the potential threat, but also create an opportunity for himself to strike his opponent. It remains to be seen how this game carefully designed by him will affect the situation in Jinghai City and what impact it will have on others.
3. Gao Qiqiang and Yang Jian's reactions
The news of Wang Li's murder was like a bombshell, causing an uproar in Jinghai City. As the central figures of the incident, Gao Qiqiang and Yang Jian's reactions are particularly eye-catching.
Gao Qiqiang was working on documents in his office in the Jinghai City Government Building, and when the secretary hurriedly pushed the door in and reported the news of Wang Li's murder, his expression instantly froze. Gao Qiqiang immediately put down the documents in his hand, got up and walked to the window, looking at the city skyline in the distance.
He recalled the last time he saw Wang Li not long ago. At that time, in order to protect his interests, he had to drive Wang Li out of Jinghai. Although this decision filled his heart with guilt, he also knew that in this whirlpool of power, sometimes he had to make some choices against his will.
Gao Qiqiang quickly convened a meeting of his core team. In the conference room, the atmosphere was solemn. Gao Qiqiang looked around and said in a deep voice: "Everyone has heard about Wang Li, right?" "
Everyone nodded. Gao Qiqiang continued: "The situation is very complicated now. The task force has been involved in the investigation, and we must remain calm and not act rashly. "
One of the confidants asked, "Boss, will anyone suspect us?" After all, Wang Li was driven out by us before. "
Gao Qiqiang shook his head, "Because of this, we are the most unlikely people to start. Still, we need to be prepared. "
He turned to his assistant and ordered, "You go and contact Zhao Lidong to see what news he has over there." In addition, pay close attention to the movements of the task force and report any disturbances immediately. "
At the same time, Yang Jian also received the news of Wang Li's killing. He was attending an important business reception, and when his phone vibrate, he stepped aside to answer it. After listening to the report, Yang Jian's face became extremely ugly.
He walked briskly out of the reception and onto the hotel's terrace. The night breeze blew, Yang Jian lit a cigarette and took a deep breath. Wang Li's death is both a threat and an opportunity for him.
The threat is that, as someone who has had a relationship with Wang Li, he is likely to be the focus of the investigation. The opportunity is that if you can operate skillfully, you may be able to use this to hit Gao Qiqiang.
Yang Jian took out his mobile phone and dialed his lawyer's number. "Old Xu," he said in a low voice, "you go to Lishui County right away." On my behalf, I would like to express my full cooperation with the police in the investigation. Also, ask around secretly and see if there's any information that is beneficial to us. "
After hanging up the phone, Yang Jian contacted a few friends in the media and asked them to pay close attention to the news on the matter. He is well aware that in this turmoil, the direction of public opinion is very important.
While Gao Qiqiang and Yang Jian were coping with each other, the investigation of the task force was also in full swing. An Xin led the team to conduct a detailed investigation of the crime scene, and also carried out a large-scale visit and investigation in Lishui County.
However, the more she investigated, the more An Xin felt that this case was unusual. Wang Li's death seems to involve the intricate network of interests in Jinghai City. Every step of the investigation is like stepping on thin ice, and the slightest carelessness may cause a bigger storm.
One night, An Xin sat alone in her makeshift office, spreading out various investigation materials in front of her. She repeatedly checked Wang Li's movements before his death, trying to find some clues. Suddenly, a detail caught her attention.
In the days leading up to Wang Li's killing, he had received several calls from an unfamiliar number. The place of ownership of this number is Jinghai City, not Lishui County. An Xin immediately asked the technician to track down the source of this number.
At the same time, Zhao Lidong is also closely watching the development of the situation. He receives detailed reports from his subordinates every day, including the actions of Gao Qiqiang and Yang Jian, as well as the progress of the task force's investigation.
Zhao Lidong knew that as the investigation deepened, the truth would come to light sooner or later. But he is not worried, because he is prepared for all kinds of scenarios that may arise. In this power game, he believes that he will be the final winner.
In this way, Wang Li's death became a fuse, triggering a series of chain reactions in the Jinghai municipal business community. The relationship between Gao Qiqiang, Yang Jian, and Zhao Lidong has become more delicate and complex. The investigation of the task force is like a sharp sword, hanging over everyone's heads, so that everyone does not dare to act rashly.
How will this storm caused by Wang Li's death evolve? Can Gao Qiqiang and Yang Jian succeed in self-preservation? What will be the result of Zhao Lidong's strategy? As the investigation deepens, more secrets may be revealed, and the power structure of Jinghai City will also face a new reshuffle.
Fourth, the investigation and breakthrough of the task force
The investigation work of the special case group in Lishui County is in full swing. The team led by An Xin worked day and night to find a breakthrough in the complex case. They interviewed Wang Li's friends, neighbors and colleagues before his death, and collected a large number of testimonies and physical evidence. However, the truth of the case always seems to be one step away from them.
On a rainy afternoon, An Xin was sorting out the case in the temporary office of the Lishui County Public Security Bureau when she suddenly received an unexpected phone call. On the other end of the phone, a hoarse voice said, "I have important clues about Wang Li's case, but I only believe you." "
An Xin immediately became alert and asked about the identity and specific circumstances of the other party. The other party just replied briefly: "At ten o'clock tonight, the Hongmei Teahouse in the old street of Lishui County." Remember, you're alone. With that, he hung up.
An Xin was in a dilemma. According to the regulations, she should immediately report to her superiors and lead the team. But her gut tells her that this could be the key to solving the case. Eventually, she decided to go alone, but with safety precautions in place.
That night, An Xin came to the Red Plum Teahouse as promised. This is an old teahouse that has been open for decades, and the wooden tables and chairs have been polished by the years. An Xin chose a window seat and sat down and ordered a pot of dragon wells.
It didn't take long for a middle-aged man wearing a peaked cap and ordinary clothes to walk in and sit directly opposite An Xin. He glanced up at An Xin and said softly, "I am Wang Li's old subordinate, codenamed 'Gray Wolf'. "
An Xin nodded slightly, motioning for him to continue. The gray wolf lowered his voice and said, "Before Wang Li died, he contacted me and said that there was an important document to be handed over to me for safekeeping. But before he could see me, something happened. "
"What documents?" An Xin asked.
The gray wolf shook his head, "I don't know the specific content, but Wang Li said that this document is enough to bring down several big names in Jinghai City." "
An Xin's heart beat faster, and she asked, "Where is that document now?" "
The gray wolf smiled bitterly, "I don't know either. Wang Li said that for safety, he hid the documents in a place that only the two of us knew. But now, I'm the only one who knows. "
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the teahouse. The gray wolf's face changed drastically, and he quickly got up. "Someone is following me!" He whispered, "Remember, go find the old locust tree!" With that, he rushed out of the teahouse.
An Xin also immediately got up and chased out, but there was no trace of the gray wolf outside the teahouse. She looked around and saw only a few passers-by in a hurry.
Back in the temporary office, An Xin immediately convened a meeting of the core members. She gave a detailed report on what happened to the teahouse, especially emphasizing the clue of the "old locust tree".
The task force immediately launched an investigation into the "old locust tree". They consulted the map and historical materials of Lishui County, and found that there was an old locust forest in the western suburbs of the county, which was said to be hundreds of years old.
Early the next morning, An Xin led a team of police officers to the Huai Forest. It is densely wooded and foliage. They spread out and carefully searched each old locust tree.
Just when everyone was about to give up, a young police officer suddenly noticed that there was a small hole in the trunk of a particularly thick old locust tree. He shines a flashlight and notices that something seems to be hidden in the cave.
An Xin immediately stepped forward and carefully took out a sealed plastic bag from the hole. When I opened it, it turned out to be a thick document and a USB flash drive.
An Xin quickly scanned the contents of the document, and her face became more and more solemn. The document details corruption in some of the city's major construction projects in recent years, involving a number of high-ranking officials, including Gao Qiqiang, Yang Jian, and even Zhao Lidong.
In the USB flash drive, a large number of evidence materials are preserved, including transfer records, meeting recordings, etc. These evidences will undoubtedly set off a huge storm in the Jinghai municipal arena.
An Xin immediately reported this major discovery to her superiors. Her superiors instructed her to return to Jinghai City immediately and demanded strict secrecy.
Just as the task force was about to leave Lishui County, an accident happened. The police officer in charge of keeping the evidence was suddenly attacked, and documents and USB sticks were snatched. Although the police officers sounded the alarm in time, the gangsters managed to escape.
This sudden incident put the task force on the back foot. The loss of evidence means that the results of their painstaking investigation could be undone. Worse still, they don't know into whose hands this evidence will fall into and how it will be used.
An Xin realized that the case had entered a more complex and dangerous stage. She must retrieve the lost evidence as soon as possible, while also beware of obstruction by those behind the scenes.
At this time, in Jinghai City, an even bigger storm was brewing. Gao Qiqiang, Yang Jian, and Zhao Lidong have all learned of the task force's major discoveries in Lishui County. They have each taken action to try to defend themselves in the coming political battle, and even turn defeat into victory.
As the investigation deepens, more secrets emerge and more people get involved. This chain reaction triggered by Wang Li's death is developing in an unpredictable direction. The political arena of Jinghai City is about to usher in an unprecedented reshuffle.
5. Final settlement of the case
With the loss of evidence, the political scene of Jinghai City fell into chaos. The competition between Gao Qiqiang, Yang Jian and Zhao Lidong became more and more intense, and the task force led by An Xin was secretly tracking down the whereabouts of the evidence.
On a rainy night, An Xin received an anonymous phone call. The voice on the other end of the phone was hoarse and urgent: "Captain An, if you want that document, come to the abandoned factory on the outskirts of Jinghai City." You are only allowed to come alone, otherwise you will bear the consequences. Before An Xin could ask more, the other party hung up the phone.
An Xin was in a dilemma. According to the regulations, she should immediately report to her superiors and lead the team. But her gut told her that this might be the only chance to recover the evidence. Eventually, she decided to go alone, but with safety precautions in place.
When An Xin drove to the abandoned factory, the entire factory area was dark, and only a few barking dogs could be heard in the distance. She cautiously walked into the factory, and by the faint light of a flashlight, she saw a figure standing in the corner.
"Who are you?" An Xin asked vigilantly.
The figure slowly turned around, revealing a familiar face - it was Zhao Lidong's secretary Li Ming.
"Li Ming? Did you steal the evidence? An Xin asked in surprise.
Li Ming smiled bitterly, "Captain An, things are not as simple as you think. There's a lot more to that document than you've ever discovered, and it's much more complicated. "
Li Ming took out a USB flash drive from his arms, "There is complete evidence in this, including all the illegal acts of Gao Qiqiang, Yang Jian and Zhao Lidong over the years. But more importantly, there's a shocking secret here. "
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the factory. Li Ming's face changed greatly, "They're here!" He quickly stuffed the USB flash drive to An Xin, "Let's go!" Be sure to make the truth public! "
Before An Xin could react, she heard a gunshot. Li Ming fell to the ground in response, and blood quickly stained his shirt red. An Xin immediately squatted down, wanting to check Li Ming's injuries, but was pushed away by him.
"Leave me alone, go!" Li Ming said with difficulty, "Remember, check the 'Longyan Project'!" "
An Xin gritted her teeth and finally decided to leave with the USB flash drive. Just as she rushed out of the factory, several more gunshots rang out behind her. Without looking back, she got into the pre-parked car and quickly drove away from the scene.
After returning to the office, An Xin immediately checked the contents of the USB flash drive. As Li Ming said, there is not only criminal evidence of Gao Qiqiang, Yang Jian and Zhao Lidong, but also a secret folder called "Longyan Project".
Opening the folder, An Xin was surprised to find that this was a secret plan that lasted for ten years. The goal of the plan is to transfer a large amount of state assets to several specific private accounts through a series of well-designed projects. And the mastermind behind this plan turned out to be a mysterious person codenamed "Dragon Head".
An Xin realized that this discovery could completely change the course of the entire case. She immediately reported the major discovery to her superiors and requested additional personnel to expand the scope of the investigation.
Over the next few days, the task force conducted a carpet search. They investigated all the large-scale engineering projects in Jinghai City in recent years and sorted out every suspicious flow of funds. Gradually, a huge criminal network surfaced.
At the same time, Gao Qiqiang, Yang Jian and Zhao Lidong also felt unprecedented pressure. First, they went their separate ways to try to destroy evidence and buy people's hearts. But as the investigation deepened, the three gradually realized that they were just one link in the "Longyan Project", and there was someone else behind the scenes.
On a stormy night, the task force finally locked down the true identity of the "dragon head". To everyone's shock, this mysterious person who has manipulated the Jinghai municipal arena for many years turned out to be Zhang Guoli, the former mayor who has been retired for many years.
The news that Zhang Guoli was taken away for investigation was like a bombshell, causing a huge shock in Jinghai City. Subsequently, Gao Qiqiang, Yang Jian and Zhao Lidong were also arrested one after another. For a time, the political and business circles in Jinghai City were in turmoil, and people were panicked.
After the case was solved, An Xin led a team back to Lishui County to conduct a final investigation into the cause of Wang Li's death. It was finally confirmed that Wang Li was killed by Zhang Guoli after he accidentally discovered part of the inside story of the "Longyan Project".
It started with a bizarre murder case and eventually turned into a major anti-corruption case that caused a sensation across the country. It not only exposed the political chaos in Jinghai City for many years, but also completely changed the power structure of the city.
With the transfer of batches of people involved in the case to the judicial organs, Jinghai City began a large-scale cadre adjustment and institutional reform. In his inaugural speech, the newly appointed secretary of the municipal party committee said that he would take this case as a warning to thoroughly eliminate the influence of corruption and reshape the political ecology of Jinghai City.
However, for An Xin and the members of the task force, the case is far from over. They are well aware that the scope of the "Longyan Project" may involve far more than just Jinghai. More investigations continue, and bigger challenges lie ahead.
For ordinary Jinghai citizens, they are looking forward to a new era that will be clearer and more just after this storm. However, Game of Thrones never stops, and new battles soon unfold in the shadows. The political arena in Jinghai may be brewing the next storm.
