Among the "Eight Great Kings", Zheng Yuanzhong, the "Electrical King", achieved some success in the future. He was wanted nationwide and fled to the ends of the world. In September 1983, he was finally captured by the police and released without charge in March of the following year. After his release from prison, he resumed his old business and opened a switch factory. In the early 1990s, Zheng Yuanzhong, who was in his forties, went to Wenzhou University to study international trade and became the oldest student there. After graduation, he suddenly switched to the clothing industry, founded "Zhuangji" Clothing Co., Ltd., and hired Hong Kong star Lv Liangwei as a brand spokesperson. This company later became one of the largest in the Wenzhou clothing industry. In the future, Zheng Yuanzhong will always be selected as a representative of the "Eight Great Kings" in the selection of "Wenzhou Reform Influential Figures".

The "Eight Great Kings Incident" became well-known and infamous throughout the country around 1982, causing private enterprises in Wenzhou to feel ashamed. In 1984, Yuan Fanglie, who was then the Secretary of the Wenzhou Municipal Party Committee, deeply felt that "if the Eight Great Kings case is not overturned, there is no hope for Wenzhou's economic revitalization". He organized a joint investigation team to review all the case files and concluded that 'except for some minor tax evasion, the actions of the Eight Great Kings are in line with the central spirit'.

Amidst the turbulent seas, history always moves forward with great strides. The identity of the "Eight Great Kings" is insignificant, and their fate is like ants. The six words "in line with the central spirit" seem to have given them justice.
