Tai Zheng's vision is bigger than Zhang Zhijun's, and he does many things for the Tai family.
Zhang Zhijun was speaking more from a personal standpoint and felt that God was not helping him.
However, discussing the situation with a smuggler was ridiculous. The police didn't want to discuss "fate" with Tai Zheng. Every criminal was arrested for a host of reasons. The police were more concerned with one question: "What role did your father play in this matter? Was he the real mastermind?"
The police officer's words made Tai Zheng feel greatly insulted: "No, my father didn't know anything at all!"
——How could his father, with his status and position, do such a low-level thing as smuggling?
Tai Zhengjian claimed that Mr. Tai was completely unaware of this.
Mr. Tai was taken away because of an old case from more than 20 years ago, which is another matter!
The police officer coldly shattered Tai Zheng's arrogance: "We are all criminals, who is nobler? Even if your father is not the mastermind of smuggling, he is condoning and indulging you!"
Tai Zheng was silenced.
The word "smuggling" has never been mentioned between Tai's father and son.
Tai Zheng always believed that he had the responsibility to revitalize the Tai family, but he was unable to achieve the desired goal and could only take unconventional measures to prove his "talent".
I was too embarrassed to talk about this "talent" in front of my father.
Mr. Tai never mentioned it, and Tai Zheng never talked about it either.
At the beginning, Tai Zheng and Tai Jing first cooperated with Zhang Zhijun. The business was getting bigger and bigger. Zhang Zhijun had the former staff of the Lu family to help lay the foundation. The Tai brothers and sisters also needed help. Gradually, other people in the Tai family also got involved - outsiders are always not as reliable as family members, and it is too risky to bring outsiders into this matter!
Whether it was Tai Zheng, Tai Jing, or other members of the Tai family, they all had a common understanding: to keep it a secret from the old man.
In fact, the police believe that Mr. Tai should have been unaware of the situation at the beginning. Mr. Tai himself had not yet eradicated his hidden dangers, and the Tai family still dared to engage in smuggling. This was obviously not a rational behavior.
But as long as Mr. Tai didn't have Alzheimer's, he would have been able to perceive something was amiss. Many of the connections Tai Zheng used were "assets" accumulated by Mr. Tai for the Tai family. How could he have completely bypassed Mr. Tai?
Old Master Zhang is a person who cannot tolerate any grain of sand in his eyes. When he knew that he had trusted the wrong person, he took the initiative to apply for a job transfer. When his son Zhang Zhijun betrayed the family and his illegitimate daughter Zhuo Yue came to provoke him, Old Master Zhang's strong personality made him angry to death.
Mr. Tai is not that kind of person.
After discovering that Tai Zheng and Tai Jing were engaged in smuggling, Mr. Tai did not have the courage to report his own children. He was a little lucky, and also a little going with the flow... Many concerns made Mr. Tai finally choose to turn a deaf ear and dumb.
This is not only the police's own analysis, but also the psychological process that Mr. Tai wrote in the materials.
Ever since his former son-in-law, Professor Gao, made the real-name report, Grandpa Tai knew that the Tai family would not have a good ending.
Zhang Zhijun knew what Tai Zheng and his sister had done. If Zhang Zhijun himself had no chance of survival, he would never let the Tai family have a good life—a complete reversal of the Zhuo family's decision. The Zhuo family didn't betray the Tai family because they knew that even if they dragged Old Man Tai into sharing the blame, the Zhuo family's downfall would remain unchanged. They made this righteous act after careful consideration.
The Zhuo family also hopes that Mr. Tai can "take care" of the survivors of the Zhuo family.
Zhang Zhijun had no such concerns.
The Zhang family was truly unaware of and had no involvement in Zhang Zhijun's smuggling. If anything happened to Zhang Zhijun, it wouldn't implicate the Zhang family, and he didn't need to leave any partners behind to take care of anyone!
Xie Jinghu and Zhang Zhijun had no grudges against each other, yet Zhang Zhijun could still scheme against his friends. How could he not bear a grudge against the Tai Zheng siblings for trying to get rid of him?!
If Zhang Zhijun is fine, he and the Tai family can still settle the accounts slowly, but if Zhang Zhijun is in trouble, the Tai family will definitely not be able to escape!
In his materials, Mr. Tai wrote: "I feel guilty about the organization's training and trust. I failed to set an example for my children. They became what I was. We placed too much importance on power and too little on responsibility. We lost our ideological restraints and became indulgent in our behavior... Ultimately, this led to the downfall of the entire Tai family."
Deep regret can be seen from the confession materials submitted by Mr. Tai.
If Mr. Tai had confessed his crime back then instead of relying on the Zhuo family's cover-up to escape punishment, Zhuo Jinxin wouldn't have been able to catch him. If Mr. Tai had confessed his crime like the Zhuo family did, Tai Zheng wouldn't have suffered nightmares for over 20 years. Tai Zheng and Tai Jing would have returned to ordinary life much sooner, and they might not have been gradually twisted in a state of being neither high nor low.
…
After dinner at Xie Yuping's house, Wen Ying was invited to Xie Yuping's study.
There were only Xie Yuping and Wen Ying in the study. Xie Yuping could tell Wen Ying about the details of the case, which did not involve any specific details. In this way, she heard part of the content in Mr. Tai's "Confessions".
After hearing this, Jianwenying was very noncommittal. Xie Yuping asked her, "Why, you don't believe that Master Tai is truly repentant?"
"Uncle, why do criminals always confess after being caught? Do you believe in this kind of confession? If the Tai family's smuggling crimes hadn't been exposed, I don't think Mr. Tai would have confessed. He had many opportunities to stop the Tai family from getting deeper into trouble, but he chose to play dumb. Although he has been retired for many years, I don't think he has let go of power. Even without a lot of power, the Tai family can still have a lot of money. As long as no one catches the Tai family, the money they earned from smuggling will be completely laundered in a few years. Their descendants may not continue to enter the system. They have endless money to spend. They can do whatever job they want, and they can spend the money laundered from the stolen money to enjoy a good life!"
