It was secretly organized by Su Beng, Zhou Hao, Huang Yuan, and Chou Ching-An, with the aim of assassinating the President of the Republic of China (ROC), Chiang Kai-shek, and seeking an opportunity to overthrow the ROC government that had come to Taiwan from the mainland.^[2] The organization was led by Shih Ming and Chou Ching-an, who recruited members in two groups. The first was to collect and hide guns in Shilin, Shuangxi, Jingbiao, and Miaoli in Taipei;^[3] the second was to monitor Chiang Kai-shek in and out of his official residence in the Yangmingshan area.^[4] Later, when the operation was detected, the members of the group were wanted and fled in all directions, and the organization was disbanded.^[5]
