Ma Kui, a supporting actor in the 30-episode TV series Latent, is played by Chinese actor Fan Yulin. The leader of the Tianjin Station Action Team of the Investigation and Statistics Bureau of the Kuomintang Military Commission (Military Command, later renamed the Secrecy Bureau), with the rank of lieutenant colonel, has a tough and domineering style of doing things, and is brave and strategic.
When he was the leader of the action team at Tianjin Station, he was bent on seeking the position of deputy station chief of Tianjin Station, and repeatedly fought with his colleague Lu Qiaoshan, the director of the Intelligence Department of Tianjin Station, and was later arrested because he wanted to take advantage of intelligence and was mistaken for Emei Feng, a CCP intelligence officer, and once escaped and wanted revenge, but was finally killed by Zuo Lan in episode 13.

Ma Kui, a veteran Kuomintang military command agent, successfully assassinated Lü Zongfang in Nanjing, and after liberation, he served as the leader of the action team of the Tianjin Secrecy Bureau, and during his tenure in Tianjin, he cracked the underground organization of the COMMUNIST Party. Bearded believes that the following reasons cast his tragic life ending. It is also a taboo in the workplace.
First: rush to take the plunge, greed to make enemies
All along, in the Tianjin station of the Secrecy Bureau, there is only one full-time leader, Wu Jingzhong, the station chief, and there is a lack of a deputy station chief; Ma Kui, the leader of the action team, and Lu Qiaoshan, the head of the intelligence department, are well aware of this; in order to take office as soon as possible, both of them have done everything in their power to strive to take the position as soon as possible. Therefore, both of them committed workplace taboos and prematurely exposed their true intentions and competitors.
Second: blind arrogance, overconfidence, even the webmaster dares to investigate
In order to find out as soon as possible who leaked secrets to the CCP negotiators, Ma Kui sent people to monitor the station manager, and at the same time, according to the surveillance reports of his subordinates, he randomly speculated about the relationship between the station manager and Mu Liancheng and the negotiator Deng Ming. This incident also became the direct trigger for his kickout. Due to the restrictions on the level, many subordinates only know one and do not know the second, as a military man, Ma Kui actually forgot the fundamental requirements and basic qualities of absolute obedience to the superior leaders, privately monitored the station manager and investigated the station manager, this behavior touched the fundamental interests of Wu Jingzhong, because Wu Jingzhong used his power to corrupt, blackmail Mu Liancheng, lure subordinates to take concubines and other serious illegal acts, in order to kill people and kill their mouths, Wu Jingzhong only had the heart to kill. Wu Jingzhong's killing heart has been determined, as to whether Ma Kui has committed a crime, whether it is "Emei Peak" is no longer important, and the important Wu Jingzhong's illegal behavior needs to be concealed from his superiors, so Ma Kui only has one way to die.
Third: mouth leaks, dare to say anything, think that you are the second oldest, and the sky is the boss
Ma Kui has been competing with Lu Qiaoshan for the position of deputy station chief, at this time, he should have a good relationship with the station manager. Unfortunately, he took the opportunity to investigate the leak of secrets by the military, and began to investigate the bribery of the station manager to Mu Liancheng, and even suspected that the station manager was related to the leak. Ma Kui's ambitions are too great, his goal is not the deputy station chief, but to bring down the station master! He took advantage of the stationmaster's business trip to infiltrate the stationmaster's office and looked through the confidential documents locked by the stationmaster!
This is the following offense! Although, he was secretly sent by the Inspection Office of the Headquarters. However, the veteran seniority of the military commander like Station Commander Wu will not be angry with this! If this matter were to be investigated deeply by the station commander, Mao Renfeng, who had just taken over the military command, would not be able to convince the public! Internal unity cannot be affected, so Ma Kui must be silenced! Secondly, Ma Kui has already carried the name of "Emei Peak".
These people are originally secret agents and care a lot about identity and loyalty. Now, Ma Kui is actually sitting as "Emei Peak". Mao Renfeng, who had just been promoted to deputy director of the Secrecy Bureau, certainly did not dare to have anything to do with him, and Mao Renfeng still wanted to maintain his own image. Moreover, a "thug" like Ma Kui is still an "enemy spy." Mao Renfeng really did not dare to take the risk of using him again. Therefore, it is better to kill things, anyway, Ma Kui did not divulge any secrets, everyone is clean.
In addition, Ma Kui may be a double agent. Although it is not clearly stated in the play, let's analyze it below.
Ma Kui surrendered Wang Pseudo-76. Because he had once served as Mao Renfeng's bodyguard, he was assigned to Nanjing at that time to assassinate Lü Zongfang, who was on the mission of assassinating Li Haifeng, who had defected to the enemy and traitors. When he was caught and executed by Wang's puppet agents after killing Lü Zongfang, Li Haifeng once said that the person you killed was coming to kill me. Therefore, Ma Kui surrendered to the Wang pseudo-secret agent organization, so later he always held a co-opting attitude toward Yu Zecheng, who knew the inside story.
