!! Given how ''every single'' plot Wo Fat has concocted in Hawaii has been thwarted by [=McGarrett=], I can't imagine Chairman Mao would've tolerated his constant failure...
So maybe Wo Fat is related to Mao, thus ensuring he wasn't um... [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness dealt with]] when his superiors realized the information he'd taken to China by the end of the PilotMovie (aka "Cocoon" Part II) was useless? (Not to mention the ExtraLongEpisode "Murder - Eyes Only" which sees Wo Fat escaping with equally wrong intel.)
