Wong hmm well whose wins mentor wins widow wanted me to say hi so you went all the way down to couch time to say hi if I tell you can you get them to release me to me I can talk to the Minister of Foreign Affairs but let me tell you something this is some little investigation that you can control at your field office I don't think you understand exactly what's going on here yeah you how is mrs. with under the circumstances it seems like a very strong woman when I last saw her she was a shy beautiful bride one was very happy this was a terrible loss well you're close to finding his murders unfortunately I seem to be somewhat outside the investigation they're not giving me much to go this is very frustrating I'm sure so who would want to kill Henry when well the police telling you them Bob he's responsible yeah well I think Henry wouldn't had anything to do with the mom I'm proud of my student Henry went it did what I could not do my thang it made the ultimate sacrifice they left his country and notes to make it better for his people being in your country a free country he could speak freely what do you know about country's history under Japanese occupation until the end of World War two and then when Chiang kai-shek in his army were forced out of China by now say Tommy establish control here he's been protecting Taiwan from the Communist invasion from mainland China ever since I guess that information has been approved for the State Department this island has been controlled the foreigners for a long time to establish control Chiang kai-shek imposed martial law it didn't matter the people here were harassed arrested tortured it is matter that people here were forced to speak Mandarin we were fined for speaking our own language families in America one was able to write about all these things there are 18 million Native Taiwanese on this island but two million mainland Chinese rule them in the minute where President Nixon shook the hand of Chairman Mao the government saw the days as numbered they're desperate desperate enough to kill an American and American soil shot Chief Jim killed a chicken to scare the monkey fear made us lose our awareness it can turn us into cowards as well I do not wish to offend you agent Kelly you might ask yourself why your government sent you here you do not seem to be an expert on Taiwan I was the only one who could identify when to kill her but they already know who killed professor well but what's important is we all can say we did what's right and I owe this to where we must finish twins work [Applause] [Applause] when said this to me the rule reveals context you don't want to give that to me you were to give me evidence I'd have to turn it in we all have to believe in something agent Kelly unless used to believe as the denry in the ideals of the United States what about you what you worried about what's gonna happen to you I am the chief curator of the greatest collection of Chinese art in the world I'm thus useful to the government for not I will not have been here to meet finally they - I'm doing the right thing thank you it's okay thank you I think Joshua Jim Pasha O'Shay view [Applause] they are speaking in Taiwanese not Chinese what's t-28 february 28 1947 Bishop's army killed 20,000 Taiwanese in one week it's illegal to talk about independence [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Applause] you and dr. Wong talk for what 20 minutes apparently so you knew I was being followed this is in the u.s. you're a visitor going outside your directives well you're not much of an agent if you don't know that you haven't watched since you got here whose side are you on I could ask you the same question you know withholding evidence aiding a communist spy is the government briefing now the military command briefs me as a courtesy all right let's cut through the bull then won't you tell me what you know all right here's what I know an emissary of the United States was seen at an anti-government rally that doesn't look took this government ordered its army to fire into a group of unarmed civilians who are trying to stage a peaceful protest how does that look I'll make it back to the hotel it's late please stay no let me get some tea I can't believe the army chief fire in the crowd like that they were ordered to do so why there's a pro-democracy rally the government needs no publicity about two to eight and they have done such a good job that no one outside this island knows about it that is why we suspect they killed Henry when he was trying to expose it to the rest of the world what happened after World War two the Japanese left after 50 years and we were very happy then the Chinese civil war started and Chiang kai-shek's army began to lose against Mao Zedong and the Communists Chang's army started to come to Taiwan at first we were happy because most of our ancestors are from the mainland but then we began to realize why they were losing the war it's because they stole from people on the mainland in the same way they would steal from us they came to Taiwan and saw how rich we were they acted like they owned everything on february 28 1947 we need the Taiwanese got together and marched and demanded for justice and order they responded by sending a battalion to kill us they were very specific about who they killed they killed politicians businessmen journalists intellectuals anybody could create a government this entire generation of leaders my father was a civil engineer he was taken from our house and track to the river with five other unlucky men they were tied together they shot one of them in the head and enjoy tea for others down with him my father was the last to drown you should drink your tea it's a shilling the Chinese say we are their brothers if we are brothers why do they treat us like this thank you oh it's okay we know that they're government agents from every major university campus in the United States good morning morning there's a shirt for you thank you got a point I don't win get the tape overseas to dr. Wong without the government getting it even the government is not organized enough to deal with the chaos of our mail system it's on the tape it's a dictation of the major events of when's book its backup since he was in danger what's the book about he was writing about the Taiwanese government systematic use of the Chinese mob the gang sell drugs and used the money to buy arms in other countries including the United States they create fear by spying on their own people laundering money even killing political dissidents I don't know what's going on and I suggest don't play this very cool let me do the talking you try not to say anything stupid where's khlo good morning gentlemen good morning thank you for coming I would like to take this opportunity to reiterate the importance the United States places on finding leash and chin we are aware of your concerns in this game and I assure you that we want to find him as much as you do thank you finally or do you want to assassinate I saw how efficiently you apprehended David woo we can all appreciate I'm sure agent Kelly's frustration please this game agent Kelly understands what is occurring here we are eager to hear from him well perhaps you can tell us what you were doing there I was doing what I was sent here to do I was observing perhaps you'd like to tell me the next time you carry out a raid on one of my suspects these suspects are no longer your suspects this is our investigation and if I'm to tell you any information regarding it it will be out of courtesy I have quite certain we all want to finally age in gender I am curious though how did you know where it was I was out for a stroll I saw some police activity I decided to follow it then perhaps you could tell me what you were doing at an illegal protest in Georgia yesterday excuse me surely you were not just out for a stroll then no I received a tip that he was being hidden in cash on and was he I don't know I was beating over the head by police before I could find out independently pursuing leads can compromise our and officer Chen's investigations the last thing I want to do is compromise this investigation and if I have somehow done that I apologize to you and officer Chen given the current state of unrest we fear it is no longer safe for you to be here your assistance is greatly appreciated but we would kindly request that you leave the country no later than tomorrow afternoon miss King of course I trust that this would be enough time for you to wrap up all the affairs here thank you gentlemen Jim Kelly I can't leave yet my hands are absolutely tied we have no official relationship with this country you're lucky they didn't throw you in jail B is the key to this whole thing he can blow it wide open it's why they want to get rid of me and get to him first this is their investigation is not gonna be an easy situation they're gonna kill him what exactly are you driving I think the Taiwanese government conspired to have one killed listen even if that was true you'd never be able to prove it no not without weak the JIT illness and may boards I tidy away [Music] guilty [Music] listen to

authority that would have been unfortunate you're certainly not a pushover our government was expecting where's me you will see him soon change can come from anywhere like my friend Wong some prefers to work from the inside the bongs dead why should I trust you you have no reason to what if I told you that your suspect would away and itching Shan were members of an organization called the iron blood patriots and that this organization was contracted to assassinate professor where you just be confirming something I already suspected so the governor was involved hmm military command of course but the order came from higher-up the primary patron of the iron but patriot is the son of the President so they killed when to save face yes but why risk alienating the us that decision was flourish as are many of the decision I encounter disease did you know about it would you believe me if I say no I have my doubts I should this is tricky business here agent Kelly we must maintain sight of the end game at all times although they won't admit it this government feels backed into a corner so much so that they are right now finalizing a deal with several American businessmen to fund and train legal rothwyn Contras to fight their pro communist government in exchange for that the US administration will pack an arm steal to Taiwan exceeding 50 million dollars when President Nixon decided to back convince China the mainland gained advantage the u.s. seat moved from Taipei to Beijing but the biggest threat to our government is not a red giant from across it is here in time with the vast majority of the Taiwanese people one is a democratic government separate and independent from China it sounds reasonable to you as an American China needs Taiwan Taiwan does not mean this is affect the United States and the rest of world have never understood Henry when with his Taiwanese it was murdered in shot by mainlanders now they would have we instead Li Shan Shan knows that he is being hunted by his employers because we've made him more dangerous to the cabin then Henry when ever was and now he's fled to Hong Kong be careful of your intelligence agent Kelly we know exactly where he is you see unlike what I weigh lesions and is a rather high ranking member of the Patriots and is therefore afforded some protection we've managed to get to a number of his captains and they've agreed to a prize to hand him over to us who will move on him tonight and you want me to get to him before they do how will I find him he's in a club run by the Patriots your friend Ming were new they've

Formosa Betrayed (2009)

Thriller [USA:R, 1 h 43 min]
James Van Der Beek, Wendy Crewson, John Heard, Will Tiao
Director: Adam Kane

IMDb rating: ★★★★★★☆☆☆☆ 6.3/10 (1,203 votes)

In the early 1980s, an FBI Agent is assigned to investigate the murder of a respected professor. Through his investigation, he unearths a spider web of international secrets that has been thriving within college campuses across America for decades. His investigation takes him across the Pacific to the island nation of Taiwan, where with the help of the outspoken widow and an unlikely spy, he learns that the Professor's killing was not a random act, but a desperate move by a scandalous government intent on keeping its nefarious activities under wraps. Our detective soon finds himself on a collision course against the U.S. State Department, the Chinese Mafia, and the Nationalist Chinese Government - in a land where the truth is not what it seems and the only people he can trust, cannot be trusted at all. Inspired by actual events. (IMDb)
