Revision as of 19:56, 27 October 2015

Spoiler Warning: Plot details, ending details, or both are in the text which follows.

Zhou Ming (周明) is a character in the Grand Theft Auto series who appears as a main character and the secondary antagonist in Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars and is the leader of the Ming Family, a sub-sect of the Triads in Liberty City.

Description

He has links to Hsin Jaoming and is suspected of masterminding several major counterfeiting operations in Liberty City and around the world.

Along with Wu "Kenny" Lee and Chan Jaoming, he is a contender for the spot as Hsin Jaoming's successor. Both him and Chan were falsely accused of being the FIB informant who was ratting out the Triads (only for it to be revealed to be Kenny), and they were both killed by Huang Lee on Hsin's orders.

He is an extremely arrogant, bloodthirsty triad boss who thinks he has everything to become Hsin's successor. Zhou also owns a bar called the Ming Inn in Broker and an unnamed club in the East Island City district of Dukes.

Personality

Zhou appears to be very confident and selfish, almost ever pointing out better facts about himself to everyone, such as Huang Lee. Despite that, he appears to be loyal to his gang, trying to set up profitable deals and counterfeiting orgainsations. He is always on the look out for money and is very greedy. Him killing Uri in a brutal way also shows he is a heartless sociopath, who will do anything in order to achieve what he wants.

Personal Information

He lives in Lower Easton, Algonquin.
His email address is ZM@myroomonline.net.
His telephone number is 555-063-618.

Murders committed

Uri - Killed for apparently betraying him.

Trivia

Zhou Ming drives a white Bobcat as seen in the missions Stealing the Show, Flatliner and Driven to Destruction. He also has a Triad variant Hellenbach, as seen in all of the missions he gives from his clubhouse, in Cash and Burn and in the cutscene for the mission So Near, Yet Sonar.
