Winner Takes It All, Resurrection 2009

Chapter 743: Controlling Life and Death

"This is the nth time today, can't you let me sleep?"

Late at night, the streets were filled with shrill sirens, vehicles whizzing past, and occasional loud noises coming from a certain block, making it impossible for people to sleep.

But there is no way. Rats all know that there will be leftover food in areas where people gather. No matter how vicious they are, people's social attributes of following the crowd will not disappear.

Even though some people are doing things that are doomed to be shameless as to have sons, they also yearn for the best and most stable life in private. Otherwise, they can't earn enough money to last for ten lifetimes and then run off to the mountains and forests to live out their lives in loneliness, right?

In the past, this group of rats could use complex financial and communication tools, massive amounts of information data and people to cover up their tracks, but in the final analysis, they are just relatively good at hiding.

It cannot be completely separated from social services.

But whether it is by taking advantage of loopholes in the financial system or by artificially corrupting some link in it to provide shelter for the illegal gains they earn, there must be traces if it exists.

What Uncle Maoer couldn't find out was investigated by bankers, especially the big financial groups that knew all the secrets of the gray channels, assisted by the cryptocurrency trading platforms and the Qingyun Group that controlled almost half of the Internet resources.

That's simply a dimensionality reduction attack.

First, there is online shopping for food, clothing, housing and transportation. Of course, you can use someone else's identity, anonymous phone cards, or even give a fake address (it's not so strict in Southeast Asia), but it ultimately has to go through the courier terminal and the courier.

The same goes for take-out. Ordinary people in daily life may be able to cook their own meals after get off work, but people working in special industries may not have the patience.

So no matter how secretive their secret bases are, as long as they have been exposed to online shopping and food delivery services, their facial features will be captured by the 24-hour portable cameras carried by the deliverymen.

There will definitely be evidence left.

Then, through personal micropayments and daily interbank transaction flows, as long as they show abnormalities, they will be easily marked out, and then Bitcoin will be bought and sold through a virtual currency trading platform.

Then there is no way to escape, big data will accurately track every individual or company that leaves a trace, because Bitcoin currency and micropayments are in the process of promotion, and almost all local commercial banks in Southeast Asia.

Relevant cooperation has been established. As long as the Qingyun Big Data automatic review program identifies a transaction defect, it will be specially marked and then become a monitored account.

If he happens to use Qingyun series electronic products, then all the secrets will be exposed, because no matter it is pictures taken by the mobile phone camera, daily voice calls, or text messages.

As long as illegal characters are involved, they will be marked in the background. Of course, cloud terminal services are just starting out in this era, and the artificial intelligence automatic retrieval and prevention functions are not advanced enough.

Everything relies on manual review.

But don’t forget that Qingyun has the support of a large number of traditional families and large groups that have been rooted in various Southeast Asian economies for decades or even hundreds of years, for the common interests of everyone.

They had long ago provided advance warnings to the gray and black areas through their own established channels. In the face of tremendous pressure, they would not only block organizations they had contact with before, but also gray groups they had established and supported themselves.

If you want to continue to survive in the future, you must bow to this unprecedentedly powerful group!
Everything is for profit, not shabby!
As a result, under the powerful pressure of the black and white factions, countless peripheral organizations related to Luzon Island, or the channels that provided them with financial services, including senior members of the organization who wanted to escape after hearing the news.

It was uprooted almost overnight.

Not to mention a decent resistance, even the thought of it is impossible to muster up. The reason is that no one can jump out from a crack in a rock. Everyone has his or her roots and concerns.

No matter how weak one is, there will be weaknesses. There may be some social lone rangers, but they will definitely not be able to do anything big, because forces beyond the control of local groups will either be escorted out of the country or strangled in advance.

Any group that can survive and live a prosperous life must have a fatal handle behind it. It is either huge benefits that are destined to be inseparable, or its family members and relatives are in the hands of others.

Normally, everyone lives in peace and harmony, and on the surface, they have no connection. When the big groups have troubles that they cannot handle privately, they let these gray groups lurking in the sewers come forward to handle them, and then use their positive relationships to help them avoid attacks.

It also provides a monetization channel for the gray industrial chain. The two collude with each other and achieve each other, but a chamber pot is just a chamber pot after all, and even the sharpest knife has a scabbard.

When the bigwigs who control core resources and make rules compromise with each other and make the final decision, the fate of the abandoned pawns is already determined in advance.

Revolt?

It's nothing more than the result of one person or a family leaving together~
"It's really cruel. Fortunately, we invested early. If we hadn't negotiated with them in advance last time, we might have ended up like this."

Lin Afu, a gambling agent who has been in Southeast Asia for a long time, was terrified by what happened before his eyes. "Lao Pao is usually quite powerful, with more than a dozen desperate men under him. He can be said to be the most reckless person in this area.

But in the end, what happened? We were still trapped in our hiding place, and we didn’t even have a chance to put up a proper resistance. We were beaten into a hornet’s nest. Sigh.”

The other flour merchant who was leading the way beside him was trembling with fear and whispered, "Do you think they won't kill us too?"

Lin Afu thought about it and shook his head, "No, didn't the higher-ups say that as long as we don't export even a gram to Dongda and Southeast Asia in the future, we will forgive you for what happened.

But don't think too highly of them, they are the real ruthless ones. According to my friend in southern Fujian, they are organizing people to develop more advanced technologies recently.

Damn it, we don’t even need to plant anymore, we can just do some chemical additions. Damn, I just regret that I didn’t study harder, I could have made millions or tens of millions just by tinkering in the laboratory.”

The flour seller's eyes lit up, and he didn't care about the raging flames not far away. He said excitedly: "Are you talking about the new thing? Do you have any channels to help introduce it? I will reward you handsomely after the success."

"Come on, I still want to live a few more years."

Lin Ahfu shook his head decisively, "I'll take my men out to sea, spend a day on the boat, and at least make a few million. I'll introduce you guys to some business, just in case there's any leakage back to the local area.

Isn't it time to end up like these guys? If I die, I have to be buried. I've lived in vain. At least my family will be implicated. I have to fight against Qingyun Group. Humph.

Even a few lives would not be enough to compensate for this."

He didn't care at all. He was the guide. Without him leaking the information, this group of people wouldn't have been exposed so quickly. But those who are involved in the gray area cannot cash out directly even if they get ill-gotten gains.

Therefore, there is room for middlemen like them who secretly help people take baths. They don’t need much space to survive, and they get off the boat with 30% to 40% of the wealth they have gained without any effort.

They can integrate into normal society without anyone noticing. Without them, no matter how much money you make, will it be of any use?
Everyone knows that you can make money with that stuff, but you have to have a life to spend it. Even in a place with no rules, if you take millions of dollars to the bank, the bank will have to dare to accept it.

The right to interpret the rules is in the hands of large groups like Qingyun Group. Those who make a living in the cracks do not know whether to live or die. If they get involved with such a behemoth, it would be a real fate worse than death.

Because no matter where you run, as long as you come into contact with outsiders, log on to the Internet and use electronic products, you will be found one day, and then, like a stink bug, you will be ruthlessly crushed to death.

Death may not necessarily bring the end, because just like what is happening tomorrow, it is destined to be in the newspaper, with the headline being "A brave detective heroically attacks and cracks down on xx gang, becoming a stepping stone for others to achieve meritorious service."

The social order of big fish eating small fish and small fish eating shrimps was vividly reflected at this moment. Although it was cruel, it was a rule that all classes had to abide by...

"Dad, you have to save me. I don't want to die."

At the same time, in a luxurious manor on an island in Luzon, a young man knelt on the ground and cried bitterly. He kept slapping himself, and he didn't care even though blood was flowing from the corners of his mouth and nose.

Compared to death, he was more afraid of losing his existing wealth, the ultimate in luxury, and the beautiful cars and women. He had everything that could be enjoyed with money.

Because he is the son of Feis, one of the four great families of Luzon, but now, even he, a fruit artist (not a typo) and a father of high status, can do nothing.

"Rebellious son, you are simply forcing our family to a dead end. Do you believe the words of that old fox from Three Lives Three Worlds?"

Feis was almost mad. If it wasn't for his beloved son, he would have wanted to strangle him to death. "You didn't discuss it beforehand, and you didn't report it after it happened. When they came to you with evidence and asked me to give you an explanation, you came out and realized you were wrong.

It's too late. You've offended a big shot this time. Not to mention me, even if the whole family is willing to stand up and fight, we can't afford it. There are investigators from the CIA and the Special Operations Department outside. If you are still my son, you should accept the consequences calmly. "

The implication is that he should commit suicide.

But if his son had the courage, he would not have come running to curry favor with him. He would not have been able to bear the thought of being taken away and meeting an unexpected event, even if it was severe torture.

So he turned to ask for help from Feis's wife, who was also his mother. Women are always emotional, and faced with this situation, she still dreamed of saving her beloved son's life.

But before she could speak, Feis shook his head helplessly, “Either he dies, or the whole family is buried with him.

You don't know how many eyes are watching here outside. If I dare to do anything irrational, they will pounce on us without hesitation and tear us to pieces.

Don't hesitate, stand up like a man, you have done it, you must take responsibility. "

If possible, he didn't want to send his beloved son to his death with his own hands, but sometimes, he had to do it.

Du Luode has already boarded the ship of traditional American capital and Dongda Capital. Looking around the world, only Wall Street and Oumeng Capital can fight against it if they unite.

But now, this rebellious son has colluded with Sansheng Sanshi, trying to kill Durode himself through physical means before American and Dongda capital intervene.

He didn't even think about it. Even if he succeeded, what would happen? Would the two major economies abandon their long-planned huge plan because of the sudden disappearance of one person?
It's nothing more than delaying the time of failure.

The most important thing is that it didn't work. Du Luode appeared in front of the public in good health. Although the last layer of window paper was not completely broken, everyone knew it.

A new storm is about to take shape.

But no one expected that Dongda Capital's revenge would not last overnight. Within just a few hours, fierce retaliation actions took place almost simultaneously in various places.

It is said that all flights from Todai, Southeast Asia, and certain other economies heading to Luzon throughout this afternoon were replaced by people sent by them.

An unknown number of people also arrived in various parts of Luzon through various channels, and with the cooperation of Durode and his gang, launched terrifying revenge against all opponents.

San Sheng San Shi is a person supported by American capital, so everyone should give him some face. Although they will not touch him personally, they still have to put up enough chips to get through safely.

As for the other small and medium-sized groups that got involved, haha, just look at howling one after another, only to be mistaken for flour merchants and ruthlessly killed, and you'll understand.

How many backup plans American and Dongda Capital had prepared for this day in advance, but Feis had no idea that this was secretly instructed by the newly appointed deputy, Rhett.

He takes money from others to help them get rid of their troubles. What's more, he was a deputy of the CIA who was pushed up by Qingyun Group and traditional American capital with a lot of resources, and most of the people who stayed in the Southeast Asian branch were their own people.

So Rhett was not vague and had already leaked all the inside information about Luzon to Qingyun Group.

This allowed the latter to make targeted plans in advance, and it happened that Durode was ambushed in advance. This force burst out all at once, and the lethality was terrifying.

Faced with irrefutable evidence and all the public actions exposed to the sun, Feis was completely stunned. He did not dare to make any drastic moves to avoid misjudging his opponents.

After all, their family is not an insignificant little character. Even if Durold and the Qingyun Group behind them want to take advantage of the opportunity to catch them all in one fell swoop, they have to consider the reaction of American capital, so they sent someone to deliver the message in advance.

Hand over the culprits involved in the implementation of the specific plan, otherwise we will declare an all-out war.

Feis didn't dare to resist, so he could only tie up his own son who was yelling at him under the resentful look of his wife, and then rushed to the gate of the manor with a large group of people.

At this point, the tense situation of the confrontation has made both sides miserable. As long as there is any extreme action on the scene, a disaster will be waiting for both sides.

People outside understood what their superiors meant. At the same time, making too many enemies would easily lead to widespread opposition, so they had to proceed step by step and try to win over the Feis family as much as possible.

Even if they rushed in risking their lives, they would still be the ones who would suffer in the end when the top leaders of both sides negotiated peace.

The Feis family's private troops were equally unconfident, because if they went to war directly with the people sent by American capital and Dongda Capital, even if they won, the Feis family would have to hand them over as scapegoats.

So both gangs gritted their teeth and made harsh remarks, but no one dared to step out of the line.

It was not until Feis himself tied up his son and sent him out that everyone breathed a sigh of relief. There was no need to fight, and the task was completed. How perfect.

As for whether it is a person or a cold body, what difference does it make? As long as there is an explanation on the surface and everyone can accept it, it will be fine.

"I will definitely take revenge for this. Qingyun, Bank of America, CIA, Duro, just wait for me."

Watching the other party walk away with his son's body, Feis' heart was bleeding, but now he could only shrink his head and lick his wounds...

Ordinary small and medium-sized groups may be able to protect themselves by relying on the entanglement of order and interests, but once the table is overturned, they will discover the so-called private power.

It was nothing in front of the huge machine. The Durold family, which had half of the American capital, the entire University of East Asia, and the support of the entire Southeast Asian economy, instantly became the undisputed decision-maker in the entire Luzon.

Under his leadership, at the same time, the entire Southeast Asia launched a hunt for these opponents, and no one could remain safe after being completely exposed.

The networks they have painstakingly built up over decades are now vulnerable in the face of greater interests. In order to please the groups behind them, various forces have long been active in the gray area.

In one go, they wiped out all the underground forces that were connected to the small and medium-sized groups in Luzon. They would even take the initiative to help clean up some of the regular forces before they arrived.

Then the evidence will be delivered to the doorstep of those who have lost their ability to resist.

They do this only to gain enough living space under the new order. Where there is day, there must be night in this world. There are always some things that are not so convenient to handle that need someone to do it for them.

Rules may be the most cost-effective way of management, but there are always loss-making businesses with too much investment and too low output, which require a third party to supplement the management.

So gray came into being, and its existence must have its own way of survival.

It just so happens that Qingyun has the most convenient way to monetize. Its mobile Internet model covers almost every aspect of human life and production, which means it is destined to be inseparable from the gray area.

Micropayment, the Internet financial business of Minsheng Financial Holdings and a Bitcoin currency trading platform, accurately grasps the financial lifeline of the gray group from both positive and negative sides.

No matter what they do, the money these people earn through different channels must pass through Qingyun's hands. Faced with a behemoth that controls their purse, who would dare to turn against him easily?

Not to mention that the Qingyun Group and its allies also control the largest gambling business in the region. Many big bookmakers in Macau and Southeast Asia are already eager to expand their businesses online.

This is also inseparable from the support of Qingyun, which is equivalent to the most important income of the gray industrial chain, which is also within the coverage of Qingyun's industry. Now no one dares to ignore its voice.

Isn't it just helping to deal with some small and medium-sized groups in Luzon? As long as you can gain the friendship of Qingyun, it is more important than anything else. What's more, you can take the opportunity to profit from the crowd. Why not do it?
