Help me answer upcoming questions?

Hi all!

I've been showing H3T to a friend, who is loving it--we finished episode 3 on the weekend.

Sometimes she asks me questions, to clarify the plot etc., and I've been able to answer them so far. But there are a couple of things I expect she's going to ask me about after we're done that I could use some help on...

1) Who kidnapped them in the van?
I re-read [personal profile] joatamon's (priceless!) timeline, and it doesn't seem like we ever get to hear exactly who was behind the initial van-kidnapping of TY and MSF. I think I generally assumed it was Chen Wen Hao, because of one of the henchmen in the van saying something like "the Boss" wants to see them. (Though I suppose if it was the remnant of Wang Kun Chen's people, they could have been instructed to take Tang Yi to that gang's new "boss".)

2) What kind of prison sentence do we think Tang Yi is looking at?
Given that Tang Yi ends up out on bail/under house arrest and gets to take himself to prison, I assume it's not a crime like murder (the murder of Wang Kun Chen, which is implied to have been done by Jack at Tang Yi's order, to draw Chen Wen Hao back from Cambodia).

So I assume it would have to be something like assault and kidnapping? (the beating/menacing of Zhou Guan Zhi? The offscreen captivity of He Hang?) I doubt Meng Shao Fei prosecuted Tang Yi for the accidental shooting. :D And Jack's info he handed over to Interpol about Hsin-Tien Group I assume would involve the defiant members who were still moving drugs, whereas Tang Yi has gone legit.

Anyway, I've never seen the novelization or similar things myself, but I remember someone mentioning the length of Tang Yi's sentence being in one of those quasi-canon projects somewhere. What was it?

Thanks for any thoughts you may have! I think she'll especially ask me about Interpol, Jack's role in the whole thing, and Tang Yi's prison sentence, so any ideas on those topics in particular will help me get ready! XD
