"El Chema" revolved around José Maria “Chema” Venegas, who came into this world in misery but with an apparent magical purpose. He possesses a great capacity for survival and the ability to flee whenever his freedom is in question. An alcoholic, irresponsible and violent father, and a loving, selfless mother, also a victim of her husband’s abuse, influenced the course El Chema’s life would take from early on, giving him a strong personality and deep sense of ambition. From a young age, he knew his father transported drugs for Ricardo Almenar Paiva. And he understood that the drug business meant big money.

By the time he was ten years old, El Chema knew that he would be Mexico’s most important and powerful drug lord. Following in his father’s footsteps, he got his first job working for Ricardo, who became his role model. Now an adult, El Chema will do anything to reach his goals, even giving up on love. He is careful to stay away from Amanda, Ricardo’s daughter, knowing that Ricardo would kill him if he touched her. El Chema will go out of his way to help his friends and the people who work for him, but he is cold and ruthless toward his enemies. Although a small man, Chema is athletic, very quick, distrustful, a fighter, good with his hands and daring. His vivacity, intelligence and determination allow him to get out of the most dangerous situations.

El Chema loves weapons and traffics arms as well as drugs, and he is quick to take advantage of technology to make his operations more effective. If the situation is right, he is willing to give in and negotiate outcomes that will benefit all parties, but if he senses defeat he tends to dig in and reject any dialogue. He is able to repress his emotions if they are obstacles to achieving the money and power he craves. El Chema’s world is divided between loyal allies and powerful enemies to whom he will not yield. Among these enemies is Aurelio Casillas, whom he sets out to destroy as the only man who can outshine him in the world of drug trafficking, where he wants to reign supreme.
