The Beijing Rake: Jiadai

His name is Jiadai, a legendary figure of the underworld who rose from Beijing.

From a street tough in Dongcheng to the king of Shenzhen,

he faced Zhang Ziqiang with grenades against AKs,

made Beng Ya Ju owe him a huge favor,

stood up to Xiang Huasheng, and brought the Northeast gang to heel.

The underworld isn't about fighting and killing.

It's about human relationships and social savvy.

This is the swan song of an era,

and the memory of a generation.
