Recently, a TV series "Ice Hunting" about the rise and fall of the drug empire has sparked heated discussions among the audience. The play is starring Zhang Songwen and Yao Anna, and the drug lord Huang Zongwei played by Zhang Songwen is the prototype of the drug lord Liu Zhaohua of the century, who once shocked the whole country. Liu Zhaohua's life can be called a legend, he relied on his amazing talent in chemistry to create dozens of tons of **, once rampant, but under the careful pursuit of **, he was finally caught and guillotined. What kind of story is this? Let's uncover the mystery of Liu Zhaohua together.
Liu Zhaohua was born on March 5, 1965 in Fu'an City, Fujian Province. He has been a chemistry genius since he was a child, and he has won many awards in provincial and municipal chemistry competitions when he was in middle school, and he also has strong hands-on ability. In 1983, he signed up for the army and became an armed police soldier, and was later sent to study at the Fuzhou Command School of the Armed Police. In 1988, he was arrested for **14515 yuan, was expelled from the army and returned to the place. In 1989, he entered the Fu'an Municipal Court and became a bailiff.
It was at this time that he found a way to make money. He learned that ephedrine could be used to refine anandamide, that is, "** he used the 100 grams of raw materials given to him by the Taiwanese, and by consulting chemistry books, it only took two or three hours to successfully produce**." This was his first step in making ice, and it was also the beginning of his path to crime.
Chen Wenyin is not satisfied with this success, he has been constantly exploring new technologies for ice making. He wanted to find a way to synthesize ephedrine that didn't require it, because the state had already begun to control it. In 1995, he resigned from the Fu'an Municipal Court and officially went into business. He met a man named Chen Wenyin, who wanted him to make a batch of ice and sell it to Japan and Taiwan. He agreed, and with the money he earned, he conducted a lot of research and experiments. In April 1996, he finally produced more than 20 kilograms of ** through chemical synthesis. He handed over these ** to Chen Wenyin and began his career as a drug trafficker.
He claimed that he was producing a health supplement called onion crystals, which the Japanese loved to eat and sold well. In fact, he set up a drug-making factory in the town of Saiqi and constantly produced **. He also contacted some chemical experts in Xi'an and asked them how to purify and beautify the crystallization of **. The quality of his ** is getting higher and higher, and the purity has reached more than 95%.
However, his good fortune did not last long. In December 1996, Chen Wenyin was arrested by ** during the transaction. He didn't confess to Liu Zhaohua at first, because he thought that Liu Zhaohua had a relationship and could protect him. However, when he was sentenced to death, he panicked and confessed to Liu Zhaohua. When Liu Zhaohua learned the news, he immediately fled Fu'an with the money. On January 7, 1997, ** seized his drug-making factory, and Liu Zhaohua, the drug lord of the century, surfaced for the first time.
Chen Bingxi and Liu Zhaohua did not give up drug production, he fled to Puning, and met a person named Chen Bingxi, who also wanted to cooperate with him*** They agreed that Liu Zhaohua was responsible for the procurement of raw materials and equipment, as well as production and transportation, and Chen Bingxi was responsible for capital, plant and sales. Their drug factory was located in a handbag factory. They claim to be producing spices. Liu Zhaohua has been producing here for two months, but because of frequent power outages in the local area, he actually only produced more than a ton of **. They decided to move the factory to Yinchuan, Ningxia, where the electricity ** is more stable.
In October 1998, Liu Zhaohua successively transported the equipment of the Puning drug production factory to Yinchuan, and began to officially produce drugs in November. His skills have reached the point of perfection, and in less than a month he has been there, he has produced nearly 20 tons**. His ** quality is even more amazing, with a purity of up to 99%. He distributed these ** to Foshan in the name of cigarette flavors, ready to be sold all over the country and even abroad. From October 1998 to October 1999, Liu Zhaohua totaled 31 tons in Yinchuan, during which Liu Zhaohua received a total of 27 million yuan in cash from Chen Bingxi through drug production. His ambitions are also getting bigger and bigger, and his plan is to let his ** occupy the world's drug market, so the printed cartons alone are ordered according to the volume of 200 tons**.
Liu Zhaohua's wedding photo, however, his dream was soon shattered. On November 4, 1999, when Guangzhou ** was tracking a drug transport vehicle transporting ***, he accidentally discovered Liu Zhaohua's **. Not only 108 were found in the drug storehouse85 kilograms*** and 11 tons** made by Liu Zhaohua were also found. This was the largest seizure in Chinese history, and it was also the beginning of Liu Zhaohua's end.
When Liu Zhaohua learned the news, he immediately fled Guangzhou, bought a bicycle, pretended to be nothing, and spent three hours riding out of Guangzhou, then chartered a taxi to Xiamen, and then changed buses to Wuyi Mountain. After meeting up with the gang members in Wuyishan, he decided to flee to Qingdao by bus. He thinks Qingdao is a safe place because he has never left any traces there, and the point of ** will not be placed there. His counter-detection capabilities are quite high.
In mid-November 1999, Liu Zhaohua and his gang rented a private house near the Qingdao Aquatic Wharf and stayed there for a long time. During this period, Liu Zhaohua also contracted ten welfare lottery sales points to disguise his identity. In order to be able to hide completely, he constantly changed his identity and cleared his name, and never dared to touch drugs again.
In 2000, with the withdrawal of Guilin in Guangxi Province and the establishment of a city, as well as the national western development strategy. Liu Zhaohua and his gang fled to Guilin again, bought a two-and-a-half-story villa in Lijiang Garden, Dongjiang Street, Qixing District, Guilin City, and settled in Quanzhou County, Guilin, Guangxi Province under the name of Li Senqing. In September 2001, Liu Zhaohua registered a Guilin Sensen Biotechnology Co., Ltd. as the chairman of Guilin High-tech Zone, and also established Guilin Sensen Bioengineering Co., Ltd. On February 17, 2002, Liu Zhaohua reached an agreement with Lingui County, Guilin City, and obtained the lease and management rights of 1,600 hectares of land in the county's Phoenix Forest Farm, and began to plant yew on a large scale. In May 2003, Liu Zhaohua announced in Liangjiang Town, Lingui County, Guilin that he was ready to invest 80 million yuan to build an onion vegetable processing project. He thought he had escaped a catastrophe and could live out his old age in peace.
However, he was wrong. On November 24, 2004, the Ministry of Public Security held a press conference to publicly offer a reward of 200,000 yuan to the whole country for Liu Zhaohua's arrest. His ** was widely disseminated, and his hiding place was gradually locked. In the early morning of March 5, 2005, Liu Zhaohua was successfully arrested at No. 27 Jiewei, Fu'an City, Fujian Province. At this time, it was exactly 100 days before the Ministry of Public Security issued an A-level wanted warrant. This was the end of his fugitive career.
On June 26, 2007, Liu Zhaohua was sentenced to death by the Guangzhou Intermediate People's Court for the crime of manufacturing, transporting, and selling drugs, deprived of political rights for life, and confiscated of all personal property. On June 25, 2008, the Guangdong High People's Court rejected the appeal and upheld the original judgment, which was reported to the Supreme People's Court for approval. On September 15, 2009, with the approval of the Supreme Court, Liu Zhaohua was executed by lethal injection in Guangzhou. Liu Zhaohua's life came to an end like this.
Liu Zhaohua was able to hide for so long after the case in 1999, in addition to the lack of criminal investigation technology at that time, after Liu Zhaohua sneaked into Guilin, Guangxi in 2000, he took advantage of the opportunity of the national census at that time to register the village's agricultural household registration in Tong'an Village, Longshui Town, Quanzhou County, Guilin, Guangxi Province through his connections, and successfully settled down and changed to a non-agricultural household registration. After settling in Guilin, Liu Zhaohua took advantage of the opportunity of the restructuring of local state-owned enterprises and vigorously absorbing investment, disguised himself as an investor with a large amount of money, thus becoming a guest of the local ** and receiving special attention from the local ** relevant departments, so as to not only successfully hide his true identity, but also a large amount of illegal financing into the normal industry.
Liu Zhaohua's story makes people feel emotional. He was a genius in chemistry, but he used his talent to embark on the path of crime. He is the founder of a drug empire, but also the terminator of a drug empire. He is a drug lord who once ran rampant, but he is also a criminal who was eventually caught. His life is a tragedy and a warning. His life is a legend and a nightmare.
