【ENG SUB】In The Name Of Justice EP24 | Zhang Yi / Li Guangjie / Jiang Xin | YOUKU
My back! Mr. Chen. Mr. Chen, what are you doing? Chen Shenglong used judicial means to completely crush his opponents. My wife Liu Yun is the deputy director
of the Development Zone. She helped Chen Shenglong
acquire Wanchuan Mining. And I was in charge of the Wan Hai case. Do I look like the protector
of Tianlong Company? [In the Name of Justice] [Episode 24] Now, we’ll give you an update
on the accident rescue work at Wanchuan Mining. [Press Conference on the
Emergency Response at Wanchuan Mining] Please welcome the Deputy Director of Pingshan
Development Zone Managing Committee, Liu Yun. At 7:37 PM on May 16th in Dongping City, Haidong Province, a lifting cage accident occurred at Wanchuan Mining’s Mine No. 18. There were 15 people
inside the cage at the time, all trapped underground. After the accident, the Dongping Municipal Government
attached great importance to it, immediately activating
a Level II emergency response, establishing a municipal-level
on-site command center, and formulating a rescue plan. Rescue operations have been
carried out with full effort. As of now, all the injured have been rescued and sent to the hospital for treatment. Among them, two people have been confirmed dead. The remaining 13 have all been out of danger. Six of them are severely injured, and seven have minor injuries. In terms of aftermath handling, the Development Zone Managing Committee
has assigned a dedicated team to form a working group, which will ensure survivors’ families receive
timely and compassionate support. Regarding the cause of the lifting cage’s fall, the Public Security Bureau
and the Emergency Management Bureau have launched an investigation. Preliminary findings indicate that the accident was caused by
aging of the traction system and long-term overcapacity operation. Despite repeated warnings, the company continued
illegal mining activities and refused to carry out rectifications, which ultimately led to
this work safety accident. At present, the individual responsible, Mr. Wan, is being actively pursued. We will continue to release
case information in a timely and accurate manner and launch a region-wide work safety
inspection and rectification. Mr. Chen, Mr. Wan’s here. Our honored guest. Mr. Chen… Mr. Wan… Welcome… Sorry to call you over at this hour. It’s alright. Come on in. First time at the company, right? Mr. Chen, what’s going on here? I’ll give you a proper tour in a bit. I bet you haven’t had a decent meal since the accident. This is our favorite food. Come on. Okay. Eat while it’s hot. Mr. Chen, you’re doing pretty well. Impressive. Mr. Wan, here, eat up. Don’t mind if I do. Hurry… Come on… Okay… Mr. Wan, how are things at the hospital? Don’t mention it. Two dead. Some of them survived, but they’re basically done for. To be honest, for the dead ones, I can at least put a number
on the compensation. But for the injured ones? There’s no end to it, it’s gonna be like a black hole. I’m so screwed. Can’t believe this happened to me. Mr. Wan, don’t be upset. What did the government say? What can they say? They’re pressuring me to pay the families. Mr. Chen, you know I’m broke. What do I have to pay with? It’s not that
I don’t want to compensate, I just… I can’t. It’s driving me crazy. How much are they asking? Some want a million. And some even want two. They’re insane. Tell me, is my life even
worth a million? If you think it is, take it, go ahead. If it comes to that, I’ve got nothing left to lose. Screw it. I’m done. Mr. Wan, don’t worry. I’ll help you carry this burden. Mr. Chen, thank you. Don’t try to make me feel better. I’ll cover the compensation. Whatever the families ask for,
I’ll handle it. You’ll do that? While I’m at it, I’ll pay off your bank loans too. The money’s ready. Here’s the deal, talk to your brother, have him hand the mine over to me. The loans are massive, and with all the interest, there’s no way you’ll ever
pay them back. Also… Kick a man when he’s down. Capitalize on a bad situation. Mr. Chen, you may as well
just rob me outright. Mr. Wan. You let your brother give me the mine, you can ask me for whatever you want. Mr. Chen, thanks for the food. Really. But there’s a pile of mess
at the hospital waiting for me. I need to be there. So I’m gonna head back now. As for the mine, you don’t even need to ask my brother. I won’t agree to it. Forget it. Goodbye. Did we say you can leave? We’re not done talking! Why so worked up? We’ll talk later. Where do you think you’re going? Go back. Back. No, get out of my way. Go back! Freeze! Don’t move. What are you doing? My back! Let me go! Mr. Chen. Mr. Chen, what are you doing? You know, I’ve got a back injury! Go on then. Just kill me. Kill me. I don’t even care anymore. Just kill me. That lifting cage in your mine fell down just like that. Do you know why? Because the winch had no brake force. And why did it have no brake force? That’s because it had no brake fluid. Why did it have no brake fluid? Because I drained it. You’d better hand that mine over willingly. And I promise it won’t happen again. Or else, I really don’t know what I’ll do. Mr. Wan, your company’s legal representative
is Wan Chao, right? He’s vanished since the accident. Let me make this very clear, if your brother doesn’t agree to give me the mine, then Wan Chao’s life is in God’s hands. Everyone, Zhang Fang reported issues uncovered by the procuratorate during the investigation of the Wan Hai case in Dongping. These include whether the Wan Hai case qualifies as an organized crime case, and whether there are duty-related crimes behind it. There are now clear leads. What are your thoughts? [Hao Dongliang]
This case [Vice Governor of Haidong Province
and Head of Public Security Bureau] has drawn major attention
from the province. And right after it wrapped up, a mine accident occurred. Now we’ve uncovered even more problems, it’s definitely fishy. Among them, we even found indications
of criminal offense. When it comes to the hidden
duty-related crimes, the Public Security Bureau
of Haidong Province should work closely
with the procuratorate. We should crack down on
all criminal offenses with severe measures,
leaving none unchecked. From a perspective of
handling and hearing a case, accountability is now lifelong. [Zheng Zhong
President of Haidong Senior People Court] The earlier we detect, address, and correct problems, the less passive we become. It’s also about taking responsibilities. My suggestion is, hold on to the case, get to the bottom of it. Zhang Fang, what do you think? According to
the Supreme People’s Procuratorate, leave no criminal unpunished, don’t wrongfully accuse
anyone who’s not involved. Since there are problems
with the Wan Hai case, we will initiate a reinvestigation. As for the suspected duty-related crimes committed by state functionaries, we must also investigate resolutely under the central government’s
directives to strengthen prosecutorial oversight. This involves criminal investigations
by the public security organs and investigations into duty-related crimes by the disciplinary and supervisory authorities. We’ll need to coordinate
across these bodies. Does anyone else have comments? [Yan Licheng, Hao Dongliang, Zhang Fang] Yesterday, after receiving the report
from the Provincial Procuratorate, I recognized the seriousness
of the issue and reported it to Secretary He Zhigang
of the Provincial Party Committee. Mr. He gave clear instructions that the Central Government places great importance on the anti-organized crime campaign, and even greater emphasis on
work style construction, which has been a priority since the 18th CPC National Congress. Now that problems have been found, we must do our best, dare to confront the hard issues, and get to the bottom of everything. Ensure that the people truly feel fairness and justice in every case. Looking at the clues we’ve gathered, the starting point is still legal oversight, but criminal elements are also involved. Therefore, the case will be overseen
by Haidong Anti-Crime Office, with the Provincial Procuratorate
taking the lead. The Procuratorate
and the Public Security Bureau will each assign a team of officers to form a Task Force that should head to Dongping ASAP. As for the disciplinary violations involving state functionaries, I’ll work with the Provincial Commission
for Discipline Inspection to investigate these cases, then hand them over to Haidong Provincial Political
and Legal Affairs Commission and the political and legal system. For duty-related crimes
within the system, we will punish them firmly, with zero tolerance. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Director Liu, I know you must have been under a lot of pressure lately. I get it. You’re here to say you’re no longer
considering the acquisition, right? Understandable. Wanchuan Mining has always been a negative equity. And now, there’s been an accident. That’s not what I mean. I’m here today to tell you that we still want to buy the mine. And things are already settled
on Wan Hong’s side. Wanchuan Mining’s debt isn’t small. But we can handle it. We can even handle
the aftermath of this accident. Wan Hong can’t afford compensation. We can take that on too. The reason we’re so determined
to go through with this is because we want to ease the burden
on the Development Zone, on the committee, on you. Come in. Mr. Li, here’s everything on Tianlong Company and Chen Shenglong. I’ve heard before that Chen Shenglong had done
pretty well for himself, but I didn’t expect
he’d made it to the second-highest taxpayer in Dongping, and the top taxpayer
in the Development Zone. [Tianlong Overview
Major Project Deployment] Last year, he was even elected
a CPPCC member for the zone. This guy is basically a rags-to-riches legend. He didn’t even finish middle school
before heading out to work. He’s been a bartender, security guard, you name it. But how he made it to where he is now? That part’s a blank. I asked a few business friends, none of them knew either. They only knew his company is now focused on
real estate and urban renewal. Some of the most well-known housing projects in Dongping, like Tianlong Wangyue and Dadu Wangyue, are all their flagship developments. The newest one, Dadu Xishan, is the best whether in location
or quality. There’s no guarantee you can buy in,
even if you have the money. But isn’t giving away such a huge place a little much? Not at all. Zijian is gifted. Since he joined, Tianlong Group has been thriving year after year. I have to say, three houses wouldn’t even be too many. They dropped the price
to clear inventory. Anyone would get the same price. Oh, right, when I went to the tax office
to check Tianlong’s records, I heard Mr. Qiao had been there too. Qiao… looked into Tianlong Company? Yes. When? It should be shortly before Mr. Qiao
had his incident. Yun, you gave us the opportunity. Now it’s time for us
to return your favor. How could we just walk away? I appreciate that you’re willing to do this. But to you, this is business. To me, it’s my job. Let’s keep our personal relationship
out of it. You should give it some more thought. If that’s the case, then let me give you an update on our company’s future plans to ease your concerns. We’ve already submitted the application for the land expropriation rights
in Hongjia Village. If you have time, please help move it along. We’re planning to build a battery plant there. So Wanchuan Mining and the battery plant are part of our integrated
new energy strategy. Acquiring Wanchuan Mining is a key part of the whole plan. So it doesn’t matter if we’re taking some losses now. In that case, let me make it clear. I’ll fully support your new energy project. Okay. Thank you. [Personal Information of Chen Shenglong] Has Chen Shenglong
ever asked you for any favors? The Wan Hai case has been
dragging on for three years. The Development Zone’s been a mess. It wasn’t easy convincing Chen Shenglong to invest in our zone. If anything, I was the one asking him for favors. Which company are you
talking business with now? Tianlong Company. Chen Shenglong wants to
go into new energy. Copper and nickel were found
in Wan Hai’s mine. Before Qiao died, he had investigated Tianlong Company. Is there a problem, Mr. Li? The Guidance Group said it before, there were issues with the Wan Hai case. On the very first day in court,
Zhang Wenjing shouted that Wan Hai was innocent. If that’s really true, could this all be an interest struggle between Chen Shenglong and Wan Hai? Chen Shenglong used judicial means to completely crush his opponents. Mr. Li, that’s a dangerous assumption. My wife Liu Yun is the deputy director
of the Development Zone. She helped Chen Shenglong
acquire Wanchuan Mining. And I was in charge of the Wan Hai case. If we accept that assumption as true, do I look like the protector
of Tianlong Company? Yes… Maybe… 445310, Wan Hai is here. Why did this happen all of a sudden? What’s the cause? It was my fault. Before, Chao kept insisting
on mining secretly. I tried my best to stop him, but I failed. What else could you do, really? Brother, where’s Chao? He was scared of getting caught, and ran after the accident. Where did he go? Can you find him? Yes. I’m looking for him. I’m sure I’ll find him, brother. Don’t worry about Chao, leave it to me. Bro, two people died in the accident. I was thinking if we could offer to compensate the families more, get them to sign a mediation agreement, maybe Chao could get off easier. It’s easier said than done. Where’s the money? Where can you get the money? If the accident hadn’t happened, maybe someone would take over the mine. But with the accident… Well, don’t get too upset. I’ve been thinking about this in here. If worst comes to worst, just sell my houses. No, bro. No need. Someone’s willing to pay for this now. Who? That… Tianlong Company. What Tianlong Company? Never heard of it. Mr. Chen. What’s his name? Chen Shenglong. Who? Chen Shenglong. His company is pretty famous
in the city. Mr. Chen also promised to cover the workers’ medical bills
and compensation. Bro, I really had no choice. This is a great opportunity. Let’s just sell the mine. Brother, Wan Hai’s here! Wan Hai! Mr. Wan, I am here to apologize to you. If there’s any problem, we can fix it. Bro, what’s wrong? Bro… When did you start dealing with Chen Shenglong? It wasn’t me. Director Liu from the Managing Committee
brought him to me. He approached us. When was that? Just recently. What day exactly? What day… About a week or two ago. How many times? Just a few times. I thought his offer was quite good, so I talked to him. Then tell me, was this really a work safety accident? Because I drained it. If your brother doesn’t agree to give me the mine, then Wan Chao’s life is in God’s hands. Well, the police said it was. Bro, what are you implying? Wan Hai is not guilty! We’re not a criminal organization! This is all slander! Tell them you’re not a gangster! It was Wang Yu who set you up. This case is unjust! Zhang Wenjing is right! My dad is not a gangster! Let me ask you, am I a gangster? You’re not? Now, you’ve been labeled as the leader
of a criminal organization. It’s a done deal. We promised to reduce your sentence, none of that will change. I did as Zhang Wenjing said. I hired some guys
to beat Wang Yu into submission, and then forced him to sign the contract. She drafted the contract. And when my club’s head of security crippled that man, she arranged the false testimony to cover me. I am a gangster. I’ll always be. Defendant Wan Hai, the court sentences you to a combined prison term of 10 years and 10 months
for multiple crimes. You know what, you go tell Yu Tiancheng, if he wants to kill me, he doesn’t have to go through all this. Sentencing me to ten years and ten months? So he’s been plotting this for three years. I can sell the mine to anyone, except him. Pass that along to Chen Shenglong,
let Chen Shenglong tell him. Wait, brother… what exactly is going on
between you two that I don’t know about? Bro… Brother. I… I can’t take it any longer. I just can’t. You don’t know how ruthless
Chen Shenglong is. Whatever he wants, he gets. He’ll do anything. We can’t fight him. That press conference just declared it a work safety accident, and then he told me right away he did it. If he can get you convicted
as a gangster, what else can’t he do? I’m so sorry for what happened at your mine. Looks like our public security efforts still need improvement. We fell short in many aspects. Captain Sun, we don’t blame you. Those guys from the neighboring mine
are too aggressive. They weren’t just after money. They wanted my life. My mine. Mr. Wan. Mr. Wan, calm down. I’ve heard about the rivalry between your companies. But to be honest, and I hope you won’t take offense, it takes two to tango. This can’t keep going on forever. Now that I’m here today, I’d like to help address the real root of the problem. How do you plan to do that? Listen to me. Wait, where are you going? Mr. Yu, come on. [Office] Come. Come here. Say it. Apologize. Say you’re sorry. Mr. Wan. I am here to apologize to you. Wait, what’s he doing here? I know you two have been
at each other’s throats for years. But let’s be honest, well, the things you did at the mine weren’t any better than his. If we really dig deep, neither side will come out on top. What are you saying? He killed two people at my mine. How dare you try to help a murderer? And I almost got shot. I won’t just let this go! Do you still want to keep
doing business in Dongping? Are you threatening me? I’m reminding you. A kind reminder. I believe there’s justice in Dongping! I’m done talking to you. Get lost. I’ll sue you. Brother, he said if we refuse to sell the mine, then Chao’s life is as good as gone. We can’t risk Chao. We have to survive, brother. Brother. Please… Mr. Xudong, have some late-night snack. Liang, your phone. Ma’am. Did you finish packing? When are you planning to come over? I… I need to report something to you. Go on. Well, I need to go on a business trip. Once it’s done, I’ll come join you. Hong Liang, give me a straight answer. Are you coming or not? If you’re not,
then I’ll just let this go. But if you are, stop making excuses every time. Don’t get mad. I’m just telling you this news. If you’re not okay with it, then I’ll just turn this down. I’ll cancel the trip and come straight to you. How’s that? You said it. Then I’m booking your ticket right now. Hong Liang, be honest with me. You don’t want to
come to Beijing at all, do you? No, I… What did I say tonight to make you think that? Then why are you still taking on cases if you’re about to leave the job? Don’t say it. I know. Ever since you came back from Dongping, you haven’t looked happy at all. Deep down, you don’t want to come to Beijing, and you don’t want to
quit the job either. You feel like all of us are forcing you to do something
you don’t want. So you’ve been feeling stuck
and aggrieved. You never actually agreed
to come to Beijing. Then what was all that acting about? I wasn’t acting… Hong Liang, think about it. What kind of life do you actually want? [Hong Liang] Great. I’ve pissed off my “boss at home.” Forgot to tell her. Can you believe my office? Just had to send me
on another trip at the last minute. I figured, after all these years, the leadership has treated me
pretty well. Maybe I can leave on a good note, so I said yes impulsively. But right after, I regretted it. Didn’t even know how to explain it
to Min. Anyway, I… I’ll finish up this business trip, then head to Beijing and meet up with her. Liang, you’re about to resign, why they’re still giving you work? I know, right? Back then, maybe I wasn’t that capable,
so they didn’t use me much. Now that I’m leaving, maybe they realize I’m actually good, so they keep piling on the tasks. Who gave you this task, Sun Xiangqun or Zhang Fang? That’s confidential. Liang, I’ve never once heard you say that to Dad in all these years. It’s because there’s a case I took on a while back. It’s been dragging on, and now something new has come up, so I’ve got no choice
but to deal with it. Hong Liang. Tell me, is it that the case needs you, or you need the case? There’ll always be another case. But you only have one family. So I hope you’ll really figure out what matters more. Liang, I know it’s hard to just walk away from something you’ve done
for over a decade. Actually, don’t worry about that job in Beijing. I can take care of it
with one phone call. Dou might need a bit of time to adjust. But that’s easy. I’ll bring her to Beijing myself first. And don’t worry about my sister. You two have been together for years. You know her, spoiled by our old man. Just find some time to apologize to her, and it’ll all blow over. As for our father, I’ll go talk to him. Comrades, in the course of our recent work, we found that the Wan Hai case handled by Dongping Municipal
People’s Procuratorate may involve a miscarriage of justice. Some state functionaries, especially those
in the political and legal system, are suspected of
protecting local criminal organizations and colluding with them. According to preliminary investigation
by the procuratorate, the nature of the Wan Hai case is still under question, with evidence remaining
insufficient and unclear. During the handling of this case, a prosecutor died, workers went missing, and there were attempts to
cover up the cause of a mine accident. There is serious suspicion
of criminal offenses, duty-related crimes
among judicial personnel and corruption among state functionaries. [Suspect Information Record]
Such a serious and harmful criminal case is rare nationwide. It must be thoroughly investigated and eradicated. With the approval
of the Provincial Party Committee, a Task Force is hereby established today to officially investigate
the related criminal leads. Upon decision by higher authorities, the 519 Task Force
is officially formed. It’ll be overseen
by Haidong Anti-Crime Office, led by Haidong Provincial Procuratorate, with cooperation from
Haidong Senior People Court and Public Security Bureau. The Task Force will include
selected officers from Provincial Procuratorate and Jiangnan Municipal
Public Security Bureau, forming a joint investigative team. Today, the deputy director
of Jiangnan Police Bureau and the captain of
Criminal Investigation Detachment, [Song Yanchuan]
Song Yanchuan, [Deputy Director of]
has come to attend the meeting [Jiangnan Public Security Bureau]
along with his fellow officers. On behalf of
the Provincial Procuratorate, I warmly welcome all comrades
participating in this operation. I hereby announce, [Zhang Fang, Hong Liang, Sun Xiangqun] Sun Xiangqun, Commissioner
of the Provincial Procuratorate and Director of Eleventh Division, is appointed as 519 Task Force’s leader, responsible for
overall command and coordination. Zheng Yaping,
director of First Division, Hong Liang,
lead prosecutor from Eleventh Division and a Third-Class senior prosecutor, and Song Yanchuan, deputy director
of Jiangnan Police Bureau, are appointed as deputy leaders, responsible for frontline operations. The Task Force must promptly uncover all facts, collect and secure key evidence, and resolutely bring all criminals to justice. Officers at the procuratorate must focus on investigating duty-related crimes
by judicial personnel. Now I’ll announce a decision from
the Provincial Discipline Commission. Clues involving bribery and dereliction of duty by state functionaries
discovered during the investigation will be transferred
to the Task Force for handling. Police officers must not only leverage your strengths
in criminal investigation, but also focus on cracking down on related criminal offenses. In short, time is tight, tasks are heavy, and pressure is high. You must live up to expectations, work with determination, fight to win, and overcome every obstacle
in this battle. I wish you a successful mission and triumphant return. [Haidong Provincial
People’s Procuratorate] Sir. Come in. Sir, you wanted to speak to me? Come, have a seat. I’m fine. I’ll just stand. Wan Hai, I heard what happened at your mine. I hope you can stay calm and abide by the prison rules. Don’t cause any trouble. Sir, I’ve been behaving myself. I know. I’m telling you this because we’ll continue to work on getting your sentence reduced. Don’t be affected by outside events. Stay on the right track. If you need anything, just come to me. Okay… Thank you, sir. That’s it? Okay, if there’s nothing else… I… May I ask, is the appeal process complicated? You want to appeal? Are you dissatisfied with the verdict? No, I’m just asking out of curiosity. The appeal procedure is a bit complex. Qi, get a sample petition form for Wan Hai. Okay. No, you don’t have to. Thank you. You can just explain it to me. According to Article 252
of the Criminal Procedure Law, defendants, their legal representatives,
or close relatives, may file an appeal against a legally effective judgment or order to the people’s court or people’s procuratorate. Do you have a problem with your judgment result? No, just chatting with my roommate. I want to learn more too. Protecting the right to appeal is also our duty. If you need anything, feel free to come to me. No, I won’t trouble you. Then… that’s it. I’ll get going. Okay. Wan Hai, I need to remind you, filing an appeal comes with a price. Besides the time and effort, if it fails, your sentence reduction could be greatly affected. Okay, I’ll go now. You sit down. Young man, your wontons, enjoy. [B-Level Wanted Notice
Wan Chao] Honey. What? Do you think that guy over there looks like this one? Kind of. Call the police now. Have you seen him? No. Sir, have you seen this guy? No. Think harder. No… No. No. Go.
