Chinese organized crime in Continental China

Hello. From what I've read, when Chinese communists took power in 1945, the underground criminal societies known as Triads fled to Hong Kong and Taiwan. I also read that presently there has been some revival of organized crime in Continental China and I'm wondering if anybody knows if some of the new gangs in Continental China are offshoots of Hong Konger and Taiwanese Triads or if are newly created gangs with nothing to do with the rites, tattoos and culture of Triads.

Thank you so much

Good question. From what I heard, it mostly seemed like family generated gangs. I'm not sure if they have any connection to the organisations in Hong Kong or Taiwan, but usually, these organisations are extremely well connected all over the region. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong!
