| - General Lao Li was a Nationalist Chinese general who also ran an opium empire across the "Golden Triangle" (Mynammar (Burma), Laos, Thailand and Vietnam) during the 1960s until the 1980s. His operations were supported by the American CIA due to political interests in the region (because the Vietnam War left the entire region unfriendly to American interests except for Thailand) and his rabbi, Dale Menton (also a CIA agent) helped Lao Li defend his operations for other American agencies, especially DEA, where Martin "Marty" Castillo was an undercover agent in the area, he attempted to stop Lao Li's drug flow to the US by setting up his men to take out Lao Li, but Menton got wind of the plan and tipped off Lao Li's men, who ambushed Castillo's agents and killed most of them, then shelled Castillo's home when he wasn't killed with his wife, May Ying in it. Castillo, thinking May Ying was killed, left the area later and relocated to Miami, and in 1985, Lao Li followed him there (obstenisbly to "retire"), sending assassins to stop Albert Szarbo from taking his immigration visas for his family, luring May Ying and her family to Miami with the promise of a job with Lao Li's front company, Consolidated Textiles, but in reality Lao Li was using them as hostages to prevent Castillo from moving against him, knowing that Castillo knew he could kill her and her family without question if Castillo went against him. After Lao Li's family moved to Miami, the general warned all of them to obey all laws and eventually Castillo will move on. But his grandsons got impatient and tried to start their own empire, and got arrested by Castillo, which angered Lao Li when Castillo visited him to let him know of the arrest. Lao Li bailed his grandsons out and took them to a warehouse to find out what happened, when one of the grandsons became defiant demanding why they could not start their own drug dynasty, Lao Li ordered his grandsons killed because of their defiance to him. But Castillo's men bust in and arrest Lao Li before the death order could be carried out.
