Kingsman Agent in Film and Television

Mao Renfeng was unaware that she had been blamed again.

If he had known that Wang Tianfeng was imprisoning underground party members in cell number seven, he would have been crazy to get involved—but he didn't know that!
Just yesterday, Wang Tianfeng began investigating the "fake underground party members," which Mao Renfeng interpreted as a sign that Zhang Anping was launching a major internal battle within the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics.

For the past three months, Mao Renfeng has endured humiliation and hardship, and was once referred to by outsiders as Zhang Anping's tamed dog. Wasn't this the moment he was waiting for?
Zhang Anping is finally going to make his move. Those opportunists who had no choice but to fight now have no choice but to follow Mao Renfeng to the bitter end—this is the opportunity that Mao Renfeng has been waiting for!

Why did he do that?

First, he wants to create a situation:
Zhang Anping does not have the ability to control the entire Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, or rather, the young and ambitious Zhang Anping is not yet suitable to control the entire Bureau of Investigation and Statistics. Only Mao Renfeng is suitable—Zhang Anping is at most Mao Renfeng's successor.

Second, isolate the entire Zhang faction!
In the past, some of those opportunists sided with him, some sided with Zhang Anping, some sided with both sides, and some remained aloof, watching the world go by with amusement.

As Mao Renfeng and Zhang Anping fought back and forth, these people all benefited from it. For example, when Zheng Yaoquan was the director, he took advantage of the conflict between Mao and Zhang Anping to form alliances, win them over, and coerce them, and quickly opened up the situation.

The root cause is that there is a group of people who are the real power holders in the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, yet they all act as if they won't act until they see results.

Individually, they may not be very powerful, but when they unite, they become an immense force.

And they have a collective name:
A veteran from the Secret Service era!
These people are experienced and have certain backgrounds. Their disciples and followers are all over the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics. People like Wu Jingzhong are actually one of them. However, Wu Jingzhong eventually integrated into Zhang's faction and became completely integrated into Zhang's faction. While the others integrated into the broader Zhang faction, their own power remained under their own control.

The Pan-Zhang Clique refers to the force formed around Zhang Anping's core group, surrounded by other people. It is a force so large within the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics that no one can contend with it.

After Zheng Yaoquan's downfall and the Mao faction's widespread defection, this pan-Zhang faction was formed. Within the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, any other faction was like an ant trying to shake a tree or a mantis trying to stop a chariot in the face of this pan-Zhang faction.

The fundamental reason for the formation of this Zhang faction was that Mao Renfeng became the acting director. Since he was not the director of the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics preferred by the chief of staff, the only option for others was to side with Zhang Anping.

Under these circumstances, Mao Renfeng had no choice but to submit and shamelessly call Zhang Guanfu "uncle"!
If Mao Renfeng wants to continue his fight against Zhang Anping, then dismantling the Zhang faction is essential!

This was almost a path without hope, but Zhang Anping was an ambitious man. After taking power in the Bureau of Secrecy as deputy director, if he wanted to revitalize the Bureau and transform it into an institution that satisfied him, then major reforms were necessary.

This necessitates pruning of the pan-T-system.

This is Mao Renfeng's opportunity!

Once those people realize Zhang Anping's determination and his desire to prevent them from gaining power, they will have no choice but to choose themselves for the sake of power, and they will never trust the Zhang faction again!
This is the true isolated Zhang lineage!

After unifying the anti-Zhang alliance's thinking yesterday, he must completely cut off these fence-sitters' escape routes, otherwise some people will always think:
Now that I'm back under Zhang Anping's wing, whether he establishes a trust by setting up a log or spends a fortune to buy a horse's bones, he should at least support someone to set an example, right?

Why can't I be this example?

This is the most common problem with a mob. To prevent these "clever" people from thinking and acting this way, he must first ignite the war and leave them with no way out!

So his gaze was fixed on cell number 7!
First of all, according to the existing power dynamics, Cell No. 7 is under their jurisdiction, and Wang Tianfeng's takeover is an overreach of authority.

Secondly, Wang Tianfeng is investigating the "fake underground party" according to Zhang Anping's will. Cell No. 7 is sealed off. Mao Renfeng thinks that Wang Tianfeng's people must have arrested some unlucky guy who was posing as an underground party member. These fake underground party members are all his people. If they are forced to talk, although he has a thousand reasons to make excuses, he will eventually be targeted by the "victims".

In that case, let's start the war in cell number 7!
The first blow was aimed at Zhang Anping's ribs!

……

Cell No. 7.

After turning off all the monitoring and recording devices, Mao Renfeng stepped in, saw Yuan Nong with the broken leg, and frowned as she asked:

"How did you get arrested? Weren't we telling you not to act alone during this period?"

Yuan Nong stared blankly at Mao Renfeng, wondering what she meant.
Ok?
The response is incorrect!

Mao Renfeng was taken aback and blurted out a question without thinking, leaving Yuan Nong speechless:

"Are you really a member of the underground Communist Party?"

Yuan Nong sized up Mao Renfeng, and after confirming the man's identity, he thought to himself, "If all the secret service agents are this good, then..."

Wait, does he mean there are fake underground party members?
Yuan Nong was even more bewildered, thinking to himself, "What kind of operation is this Bureau of Investigation and Statistics doing? They're even impersonating underground party members! During the War of Resistance Against Japan, your people were afraid that the common people wouldn't pay attention to them, so they impersonated Eighth Route Army soldiers. Now they're impersonating underground party members. You guys are really something!"

At this moment, Mao Renfeng's heart pounded. "Damn it, is he a real underground party member?"

Then he was furious. "You Zhang Anping, you Wang Tianfeng, you really... look down on me!"

While fighting and maneuvering against me, he still had the mind to arrest underground party members, and the key is that he actually caught them—in comparison, it's as if I'm a parasite on the party and the state, this is... way too much!
They were really underground party members!
Mao Renfeng's eyes darted around. Well, since we've managed to snatch the underground party members, then I, Old Mao, won't be polite. I'll take the peach!

"Bring over the most capable team from the interrogation department to interrogate him—I need to find out his contacts as quickly as possible!"

Mao Renfeng was eager to get started; wasn't it just about catching underground party members?

As if anyone can't do it!

Watch me!
His subordinates hurriedly agreed. Mao Renfeng was in high spirits and wanted to take charge of the interrogation work when the expected commotion broke out outside.

It's probably Wang Tianfeng who came knocking on our door!
Mao Renfeng smiled faintly, calmly got up and walked towards the door.

Before he could even leave, the door to cell number 7 was flung open, and as several guards fell to the ground in disarray, Wang Tianfeng stepped in with a cold expression.

Mao Renfeng cursed his useless subordinate under his breath, then spoke softly:

"Committee Member Wang, this is..."

"What to do?"

This address of "Committee Member Wang" perfectly embodies the principle of slapping someone in the face, cursing someone, and exposing their shortcomings, and it also shuts down all of Wang Tianfeng's words.

Wang Tianfeng's current position is a member of the Archives Review Committee—not yet a member of the recently established review committee. The former is a special, unpopular position, while the latter is currently the most sought-after and powerful position in the Bureau of Secrecy. They are not comparable.

After a long pause, Wang Tianfeng finally spoke:

“This person is a key leader in an underground party intelligence group, and I’m afraid someone might pass on a message to him.”

As he spoke, he silently gestured to Guo Qiyun behind him. Guo Qiyun realized the purpose of Wang Tianfeng's gesture and quietly left, rushing towards the office building.

We need help!
Mao Renfeng sneered, "What, you think I'm a communist sympathizer if I interrogate him?"

This was originally Mao Renfeng's remark to provoke Wang Tianfeng, but unexpectedly, Wang Tianfeng responded in an unconventional way:
"Yes!"

Mao Renfeng was stunned. "I dare say you actually dare to answer?"

"Wang Tianfeng!" Mao Renfeng roared, "You're saying I, the bureau chief, am a communist sympathizer?"

He was furious. That bastard Wang Tianfeng, does he even have a way of keeping his mouth shut?

He actually dared to answer that!

Wang Tianfeng wasn't stupid; how could he not know the consequences of saying those words?

But he was really annoyed!

Fighting, infighting, endless infighting. Every time we need to do something, it's just endless infighting. We just arrested the Communists and deliberately locked them in cell number 7, pretending that I didn't know anything about the Katyusha intelligence group, and then someone came to cause trouble.

Wang Tianfeng was well aware that Mao Renfeng was most likely not a communist, but he was genuinely annoyed.

He also understood why Zhang Anping insisted on launching a major operation against the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics. These bastards who were dragging their feet were just too annoying, and it was really too difficult to do anything properly in peace.

Since that's the case, he might as well make a big scene. At worst, he, Wang Tianfeng, would pay the price!
"Director Mao, your wife is suspected of being a member of the underground Communist Party, Katyusha. As a result, you sent her to a mental hospital overnight and arbitrarily removed her frontal lobe, turning her into a cripple!"

"The trail to Katyusha has gone cold!"

"Our Bureau of Investigation and Statistics was doing very well in the Northeast, but then you sent Minglou there, and since then the Northeast has been unstable, and the Communists have taken advantage of it many times!"

"The military equipment that Deputy Director Zhang personally brought from the United States has been in Northeast China for more than a year, but it still cannot be installed and tested—isn't all of this the result of your interference?"

"Last year, Deputy Director Zhang was at the forefront investigating the Communist Party and rectifying the military discipline of the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics. As a result, you dragged him down from behind and even colluded with the Communist Party to dig a pit for Deputy Director Zhang—the No. 3 detention camp incident was orchestrated by you, Director Mao, from beginning to end. Have you forgotten about this?"

"Hundreds of excellent snipers have been handed over to the Communist Party by you!"

"Even other snipers were affected, with most abandoning their posts and fleeing under pressure!"

“Now, I’ve just arrested an important Communist Party figure, and you, Director Mao, have come here in person and insisted on shutting down the listening devices—what are you doing? Are you telling him to keep so-called secrets?”

Wang Tianfeng usually speaks very little and rarely gives long speeches to his subordinates, but this time he talked nonstop like a machine gun, and most importantly, he revealed all the secrets of the top leadership of the Security Bureau.

But the most shocking thing is the last sentence—are you telling the Communist Party to keep so-called secrets?
This is absolutely devastating!
In fact, the more Wang Tianfeng spoke, the more intense his suppressed anger became.

The former Military Intelligence Bureau, now the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, should have been the first line of defense, the first battlefront, and the vanguard in the fight against communism!
The results of it?
Since the death of the Director, this group of bastards have been jumping around. First, they planned to dismantle the Military Intelligence Bureau, which greatly weakened the newly reorganized Bureau of Investigation and Statistics. After that, they repeatedly stirred up various conflicts—they did their own thing, Zhang Anping did his own thing, and they were interfered with time and time again!
The Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, which was supposed to deal with the underground party, hasn't produced any decent results in all this time!
It's all the fault of Mao Renfeng and his group of diehards—who, for their own selfish interests, have repeatedly disregarded the interests of the Party and the country!

It was precisely because of this mindset that his final words became a "sharp knife":
Are you going to tell this Communist Party member to keep the secret?
Mao Renfeng trembled with anger and said, "Damn it, I was just messing with you, what the hell did you reveal?"
"Wang Tianfeng, you bastard!"

Mao Renfeng roared and raised his arm: "Slandering superiors, showing no respect for superiors, spreading rumors and causing trouble! Seize him!"

Mao Renfeng was determined to act swiftly and decisively, to control Wang Tianfeng first, lest that bastard spill any more secrets.

Wang Tianfeng sneered and made no move to resist—in short, he was going to overturn the table and use himself as a sacrifice to completely trample Mao Renfeng's face under his feet!

He knew very well that, normally, the veteran faction led by Mao Renfeng would engage in a fierce struggle with the Zhang faction, and the two sides would fight to the point of not stopping until the dog's brains were spilled out. Since that was the case, he would use himself as the price to kick Mao Renfeng out of the Security Bureau first!

Without Mao Renfeng, no one else is qualified to take the position of director, and they have lost their backbone.

At that time, Zhang Anping will be able to manipulate them at will!

At that time, let alone opposing Zhang, they were thinking about how to retire with dignity!
Wang Tianfeng dared to do this not only because he was tired of the struggles that Zhang's faction had to face every time, but also because Mao Renfeng would cause trouble whenever there was an anti-communist movement—after so many times, it was just right to label him with this accusation.

Now that he has said these words, especially in this situation, the news cannot be suppressed at all. At that time, Mao Renfeng's only authority will be completely shattered, and as long as Zhang Anping operates properly, he will definitely be able to completely drive Mao Renfeng, whose identity is "questionable," out of the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics!

Now, he's completely helpless—he knows his fate after saying those words!

Yuan Nong, the real "prisoner" standing to the side, was stunned.

what?
Was the director of the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics a communist sympathizer?

Are you kidding me? Would we want someone like Mao Renfeng?

Even if he came with the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, we wouldn't accept him!
Several agents, barely suppressing their shock, stepped forward. One of them gave Wang Tianfeng an apologetic look and signaled to take him down. Just then, Zhang Anping's cold, eerie voice rang out:
"Try one!"

When Wang Tianfeng rushed towards cell number 7, he came downstairs and headed this way—how could Zhang Anping not have played a part in Mao Renfeng taking over cell number 7?!
Having arranged all this, he was naturally waiting for Wang Tianfeng and Mao Renfeng to clash directly.

Wang Tianfeng was investigating the "fake underground party member" when he sent the person to the most important cell, number 7, and completely sealed it off, trying to make Mao Renfeng believe that catching the big fish in the "fake underground party" was too easy.

Sure enough, Mao Renfeng took the bait with ease!

But unexpectedly, Wang Tianfeng chose to "die together" at this moment.

After Wang Tianfeng said that Mao Renfeng's actions had caused the trail to go cold, Zhang Anping guessed Wang Tianfeng's plan.

To be honest, Zhang Anping was extremely moved at that moment.

As an adversary, Zhang Anping liked enemies like Mao Renfeng because he had many ways to scheme against them.

But Wang Tianfeng, one of his own, was his most troublesome opponent.

Assassination can end everything once and for all, even if it leaves no loose ends. But assassination is still not the best option, and may even be the worst option!

As the head of the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics and Wang Tianfeng's close friend, what should he do if Wang Tianfeng were to die from an assassination attempt by the underground party?
He held the power of intelligence, but in a fit of anger, he hastily ended the matter.

Doing that would be tantamount to self-destruction!

But if it's retaliation, how many innocent people will be involved?
But he insisted on signing and issuing such an order himself—Zhang Anping would never do that!

Unless absolutely necessary, Zhang Anping has been suppressing his murderous intent towards Wang Tianfeng.

But Wang Tianfeng is far too much of a threat.

Katyusha, a person who was "dead," was somehow brought back to life by him;
The Qingsong intelligence group hadn't received a single message from him, yet Wang Tianfeng had completed his plan against them right under his nose. If it weren't for Wang Tianfeng's insatiable ambition, he probably wouldn't have known until after the Qingsong intelligence group was destroyed!

What troubled Zhang Anping the most was Wang Tianfeng's nonchalant attitude—he was willing to disregard everything to achieve his goals, even his own life. Zhang Anping was genuinely afraid that Wang Tianfeng might use his own life to complete a scheme against him!

Therefore, Zhang Anping was very interested at this moment and wanted to follow Wang Tianfeng's line of thinking.

But he immediately became alert.

No!

If Mao Renfeng were to be driven out of the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, then the Bureau would be his own domain. If he were to fail in his duties and the renowned Zhang Shih-hao were to be found to have no merits in the face of the underground party, it would be tantamount to self-exposing himself. Why was Zheng Yaoxian suspected by both Dai Chunfeng and Mao Renfeng, the two generations of bureau chiefs, in the original timeline?
Because of the fact that the seemingly invincible Japanese spy, Guizi Liu, suffered repeated setbacks in front of the underground party. First, the list disappeared in front of him, and then a traitor was set on fire in front of him. This would not be a problem for an ordinary spy, but when it happened to Guizi Liu one after another, it was a huge problem!

Zhang Anping's situation is more serious than Zheng Yaoxian's in the original timeline—therefore, he cannot let Mao Renfeng fall from power, nor can he take sole control of the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics!

So……

Let's bring out the fiercely protective Zhang Shih-hao!

As soon as he spoke, the doorway to cell number 7 immediately parted to make way. Zhang Anping slowly stepped forward, glancing at Yuan Nong, who had a broken leg, but he didn't react at all. He walked up to Wang Tianfeng, slowly reached out, and straightened Wang Tianfeng's clothes.

Wang Tianfeng realized what Zhang Anping was about to do, grabbed Zhang Anping's hand and gently shook his head, signaling Zhang Anping not to do it.

Zhang Anping smiled faintly:
"A bunch of... worthless bastards, not worth it for you!"

Upon hearing this, it would be impossible for Wang Tianfeng not to be moved, but he still wanted to stop Zhang Anping—he was truly fed up with this endless struggle; getting things done was just too difficult!
Mao Renfeng, standing to the side, seemed to have been doused with cold water.

Wang Tianfeng... so that's his real purpose?!
He tensed up involuntarily. He had been blinded by anger and hadn't realized that Wang Tianfeng was after a one-for-one trade!

If this gets replaced, I'll be at a huge loss!

Fortunately, Zhang Anping was still as arrogant as ever, or rather, as protective of his own, unwilling to suffer any loss.

Mao Renfeng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If Zhang Anping had really turned into a cold-blooded political animal, then he would have been in real trouble this time.

At this moment, Yuan Nong's expression was extremely complicated.

Zhang Shih-hao!
He had dealt with Zhang Anping several times—after Shanghai fell, he even hosted Zhang Anping in a town controlled by the guerrillas.

But he harbored immense resentment towards Zhang Anping.

The thought that Zeng Moyi, whom he regarded as his daughter, was forced to marry him made Yuan Nong's blood boil, and he felt an urge to tear Zhang Anping apart. (End of Chapter)
