February** Dynamic Incentive Plan No matter when, the development and rise of the country are inseparable from talents. The United States has always controlled high-tech industries, because it has absorbed outstanding talents from all over the world with the advantage of moving to the world. In recent years, China has also given a lot of benefits to colleges and universities in the policy of supporting and introducing talents, especially Peking University and Tsinghua University, the two well-known universities in China.

As the 17th largest university in the world, Peking University has given birth to many honor students since the founding of the People's Republic of China, including Deng Jiaxian, Qian Sanqiang, Tu Youyou, Zhong Nanshan and so on. They used their academic achievements to add glory to Peking University and increase the country's comprehensive strength. But Peking University has also produced many "traitors" who have deceived their teachers and forgotten their ancestors, and Hu Shitai, who I want to talk about today, is one of them.

In 1979, Hu Shitai was admitted to Peking University, and the gold content of Peking University students in the 80s was not low. At that time, he also received a lot of attention from schools and enterprises, and after graduation, he not only got a job in a state-owned enterprise, but also studied abroad at public expense. It's a pity that Hu Shitai, who went abroad, couldn't resist **, left the cultivation grace of his homeland behind, and finally did the ungrateful thing that made my country lose 700 billion.

Hu Shitai was born in 1963 in a poor mountain village, because his parents were farmers who could only plow the fields, and the family's material life was very scarce. Since he was a child, Hu Shitai has experienced the hardships of poverty, not only working in the fields at a young age, but also enduring a life of starvation all year round. Children love meat, but Hu Shitai's family can only see a little meat food during the Chinese New Year.

Later, Hu Shitai went to school, and he wanted to get out of the mountains, and he devoted himself to his studies, hoping to change his fate with knowledge. From elementary school to junior high school, his grades have always been good, and his teachers have high hopes for him. However, his family was too poor, and Hu Shitai was forced to drop out of junior high school that year. Because of the need to subsidize the family, the young Hu Shitai could only go to a mechanical school to learn to be a lathe worker, and he could pay a little salary every month.

The environment in the factory is dirty and noisy, Hu Shitai is not willing to live this life for the rest of his life, and he is still reviewing cultural classes while learning lathe work. The workers in the factory would drink and play cards in their spare time, but Hu Shitai was constantly working on problems, so he was regarded as an outlier, and for a time he was ostracized by the workers.

Maybe God doesn't want to disappoint those who work hard, the college entrance examination was resumed in 1977, and Hu Shitai immediately signed up in the first year, when he was only 16 years old. Although he left the campus, his learning talent and foundation over the years are still there. After the results were announced, the whole village was boiling, and Hu Shitai was admitted to Peking University with high scores and became the "golden phoenix" that flew out of the village.

After entering Peking University, Hu Shitai did not slack off, he worked hard in his daily studies, and his efforts were seen by his mentor. The other party invited him to stay in school after graduation and become his teaching assistant. But Hu Shitai's ambitions are far more than Peking University, he has experienced a poor life since he was a child, and he has a great yearning for making money, staying in school and working is very stable, but it doesn't make a lot of money.

Hu Shitai refused the invitation of his mentor and directly joined the well-known enterprise "CITIC Group" after graduation. Because Hu Shitai's academic qualifications are very high, and he usually works hard, he was promoted soon after. However, Hu Shitai is still not satisfied with this, his real goal is to study in Australia and see the strange and beautiful developed countries in people's mouths.

When the company's leaders learned about Hu Shitai's idea, they did not laugh at it, but immediately expressed their support. He believes that Hu Shitai is a promising young man, a high-achieving student who graduated from Peking University, if he can go to Australia to study, he will inevitably bring more advanced experience to the company and the country after returning to China. The boss of the company decided to give Hu Shitai the "green light" and paid out of his pocket to get him a place to study abroad at public expense.

In this way, Hu Shitai embarked on the journey to study in Australia, although it was the first time to go abroad and the language was not understood, he was not afraid and nervous, but more excited that his wish was about to be fulfilled. WhenWhen Hu Shitai stood on Australian soil for the first time, he felt a deep shock.

At that time, China had not yet begun to develop its economy, and neither the infrastructure nor the people's clothing were far inferior to those of developed countries, so Hu Shitai felt that he had reached "paradise". It's full of modern buildings, the bathrooms in the hotel suites are larger than your own rental houses, and the bar street is even more glamorous at night.

After successfully enrolling, Hu Shitai was so happy that he completely forgot the purpose of his motherland to spend public funds to let him study abroad. After graduating, he successfully worked for a well-known iron ore company in Australia, and then joined the larger Rio Tinto Group, and in 1997 he changed his citizenship to Australia, without the slightest intention of returning home.

Just when everyone thought that Hu Shitai had betrayed the motherland and studied in Australia at public expense, so as to successfully become an Australian citizen, Hu Shitai suddenly announced that he was going back to China. As the saying goes, "when things go wrong, there must be demons", the public thought that they had misunderstood this Peking University talent, and they all expressed their welcome to his return, but they didn't expect this to be the beginning of the real betrayal.

Hu Shitai returned to China as the representative of Rio Tinto Group in China, which was very popular at that time. Around 2000, China began to vigorously develop the economy, there are a large number of infrastructure gaps throughout the country, and the demand for iron ore has also increased greatly. It is a coincidence that the Rio Tinto Group, where Hu Shitai works, is one of Australia's leading iron ore companies.

If it is a legitimate business, of course we welcome it, but Hu Shitai is ready to play a big game of chess to seek improper benefits. He learned about the domestic demand for iron ore, first opened up relations with major steel companies, and used his identity to get acquainted with people first. Large factories introduce small factories, Hu Shitai doesn't mind the size of the other party, as long as there is a demand for iron ore, he is willing to eat.

If you have dinner with the leaders of large factories, Hu Shitai will show his own growth history. said that he was from the countryside, worked hard, and was admitted to Peking University. I also thanked the motherland for sending me to study abroad, so I had the opportunity to repay the country. For the leaders of the small factory, they directly let go of drinking. The other party saw that Hu Shitai, a top student of Peking University and a returnee from studying abroad, was so bold, and immediately called him a brother.

In this way, Hu Shitai is very familiar with the heads of many domestic steel mills, and through this relationship, he learned about the steel costs, purchase channels, turnover days and other top-secret information of a large number of steel mills. Hu Shitai is a patriotic overseas Chinese, a turtle studying abroad, and the head of Rio Tinto China, and all kinds of labels make him like a successful person and easy to be trusted by others.

Even if Hu Shitai's identity as a "spy" was later revealed, there were still many people who couldn't believe it. Some of the steel bosses who have been in contact with him are deeply shocked, in their eyes, Hu Shitai has high emotional intelligence, can do things, and is also very good at speaking and doing things. It seems to be very honest and credible. But this is all Hu Shitai's disguise, just to get useful information.

After 2000, China's iron and steel industry entered a period of vigorous development, but the domestic iron ore production is not much, can only be imported from abroad. At that time, there were not many companies to choose from, Australia's Rio TintoIt belongs to one of the more competitive companies, and Hu Shitai, as the head of Rio Tinto China, naturally plays a role as a bridge for communication of opinions.

I thought that Hu Shitai was born and raised in China, and he also relied on public funds to study in Australia, and he will definitely be able to fight for a lower iron mine for my country. I didn't expect things to go to the other extreme. At that time, the negotiations between China and Australia lasted for several months, because the other side seemed to have found our destiny during the negotiations, and every question could be answered without leakage.

Due to the urgent need for a large amount of iron ore in the domestic infrastructure, we had no choice but to sign a contract with the other party, which was 20% higher than expected. Every year since then, the Australian side will increase the asking price and at the same time put forward harsh import conditions. Other companies saw that the Rio Tinto negotiations were so smooth, and they were unwilling to reduce the export of iron ore to us, which was equivalent to a loss of 700 billion yuan in those years! At that time, Australia's annual GDP was only 7 trillion.

Raw ore imports have been imported for many years, and in 2008, nearly 80% were directed! A record high. In that year, the global economy fell into a crisis, and many domestic steel mills were facing closure, so high import prices finally attracted attention. **Send a special team to investigate the matter and see why the import price of iron ore is ridiculously high.

The team found that there were major problems in the business negotiations, and the other party obviously knew our internal information, and the import price of the contract was also unreasonable. They found the ** of information leakage - Hu Shitai. What role did this man play in building bridges between Rio Tinto and Chinese companies?

After confirming the suspicion, Hu Shitai was immediately arrested and brought to justice, and the charges were "leakage of trade secrets" and "non-state personnel**".Then the staff found incriminating evidence in his computer, a lot of information about the steel mill enterprise, and all kinds of data were very detailed. It is precisely because the Australian side has this information that it can be invincible at the negotiating table.

After that, Hu Shitai confessed the details, and his personal illegal income alone was as high as more than 6 million, not counting the dividends won by the company. In 2010, Hu Shitai was sentenced to 10 years in prison and fined more than 100 yuan. A year later, the Australian side intervened, saying that Hu Shitai was an Australian and could return to China to complete a 10-year sentence. It is said that he soon came out and continued to enjoy a dashing life.

Talent is one of the important reliance on the competition of major powers, and China has been sparing no expense in cultivating and absorbing talents in recent years, in order to enhance the country's comprehensive strength. Hu Shitai, as a top student of Peking University in the 80s, was expected by the state and enterprises, and sent him to study abroad at public expense, but he did not expect to raise a "white-eyed wolf".

After Hu Shitai went to Australia, he not only changed his nationality, but also came back as an undercover agent under the identity of Chinese, becoming a "commercial spy".

Because of his information leakage, my country lost 700 billion yuan in the import and export of iron ore in those years! Indirectly helped Australia earn the equivalent of 10% of GDP, and can be called Australia's "hero", but he will be permanently nailed to the pillar of shame in the country.
