The Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation understood Lin Qi's strength better than anyone else.
What he possessed now was no longer merely simple wealth or so-called financial power.
His political allies, his control over Congress, Blackstone Security—which he had expanded to more than forty thousand people—as well as his military-industrial enterprises...

And over those forty-one years, Lin Qi would only grow stronger.
Many people were waiting for Lin Qi to lose once, but the Director did not believe Lin Qi would lose.

Anyone—whether a doctor, lawyer, soldier, accountant, or even a homeless man
