In March 2005, a Hong Kong businessman named "Zheng Ze" came to Hohhot, Nei Ming, claiming to be the chairman of the board of directors of Hong Kong Golden Eagle International Group Investment Co., Ltd. He brought a "mythical" glory
Concept: Build the "tallest building in the northwest" - Golden Eagle International CBD (Central Business District) in the bustling commercial area of Hohhot.
The building is 169 meters high, with a construction area of 650,000 square meters and an investment of 5.3 billion yuan, which took two years to complete.
This "big deal" immediately attracted the attention of the Hohhot City Government, and it was listed as a gift project for the 60th anniversary of the founding of the M-ng Autonomous Region in 2007. In order to ensure the progress of the project, the local government took a series of "extraordinary actions."
In the early morning of May 17, 2005, with a muffled sound, the 11-story command building of the Hohhot Public Security Bureau, which had just been built four years ago, was blown up in order to make room for the "tallest building in the northwest." This directional blasting is also known as
"The first explosion in the northwest".
Subsequently, the three dormitories of the former city government building, Longhai Commercial Building, First People's Hospital Health Care Building, and Municipal Public Security Bureau were demolished one after another, and "Zheng Ze" obtained more than 50 acres of land in a prime location on Zhongshan West Road in Hohhot.
Due to the "special handling of special matters", Golden Eagle Company almost had the green light to do business in Hohhot. It quickly registered with the Ministry of Industry and Commerce M-N in violation of regulations and applied for the "Project Planning Permit", "Land Planning Permit", "Real Estate Development Qualification Certificate" and "Real Estate Development Qualification Certificate".
Construction Permit" and "Land Use Rights Certificate".
However, despite receiving all kinds of incredible preferential policies, the "strong" Golden Eagle Company failed to inject capital, and the "tallest building in the northwest" soon became a mess, and even illegally raised funds, which aroused public doubts and the attention of the police.
.
The relevant person in charge of Nei M-ng police said: "Based on the feedback from the masses, we compared and analyzed various intelligence information at the time. At first glance, "Zheng Ze" does not look like a serious businessman."
As the police investigation unfolded, the "myth" was shattered, and a jaw-dropping scam surfaced...
(two
"Zheng Ze" was originally named Wang Xiniu. He was born in 1958 at Longgan Lake Farm in Huangmei County, Hubei Province. He went to primary school for five years, learned carpentry at the age of 13, and became a farm carpenter in 1974. The locals called him "Wang Carpenter". "Wang"
"Carpenter" jumped out of the farm to enter the d-ng world in 1984. He opened a dance hall, a roller skating rink, ran a guest house, and ran a hotel, but he failed to achieve anything and was still involved in lawsuits.
In September 1998, he was detained by the Nanjing police on suspicion of falsely reporting registered capital, and was released on bail pending trial the following year. In 2000, "Wang Carpenter" moved to a fake household registration in Shijiazhuang City, Hebei Province, changed his name to "Zheng Ze", and reduced his age by 11 years.
Years old. The police found that "Wang Carpenter" had 6 names: Wang Xiniu, Wang Yawei, Wang Shiwei, Shu Bing, Wang Wei, Zheng Ze. Each name registered a company and married a "wife", including 4
A "wife" gave birth to a child for him.
What is the truth about Hong Kong Golden Eagle Company? It turned out to be a "three-no" company registered with 10,000 Hong Kong dollars, with no office space, no funds, and no staff.
In February 2001, Wang Xiniu learned that the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region government wanted to renovate Ningxia hotels, so he went to Ningxia and promised to invest 456 million yuan to renovate Ningxia hotels and cooperate in building the "Ningxia International Village", and signed an investment contract with the district government office.
On July 21 of the same year, the two parties signed an agreement to establish a Sino-foreign joint venture. Ningxia provided construction land and Golden Eagle invested 380 million yuan to jointly develop farms and other areas surrounding the autonomous region government.
After obtaining the land, Golden Eagle Company of course had no money to invest, but "Wang Carpenter" had a way. He used the "empty-glove" method to launch a series of dazzling fraud operations.
He defrauded 32 bidders of 20.75 million yuan in bid deposits by not opening the bids and not returning the bid deposits after the bids were opened. By fictitious loan entities, house replacement mortgages, etc., he defrauded the Yinchuan Dongcheng District Branch of the Ningxia Branch of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China and the China
The Yinchuan New District Branch of the Agricultural Bank of China Ningxia Branch made 179 loans of approximately 109 million yuan; defrauded 149 companies of project and material payments totaling approximately 380 million yuan; and illegally raised approximately 318 million yuan from Yinchuan citizens using a high interest rate of 20% as bait.
Yuan.
With the money in hand, "Carpenter Wang" had no intention of building a house. Five years later, "Ningxia International Village" has only built a framework.
After the capital chain of "Ningxia International Village" was broken, "Wang Carpenter" set his sights on Hohhot again. His deception in Hohhot was almost a replica of Ningxia: in May 2005, he defrauded the Hohhot government of 459 million yuan of land.
use rights to force the construction of the Golden Eagle International CBD project. During the implementation of the project, he defrauded the engineering contractor of 220 million yuan in advance funds, the material supplier of 10,000 yuan, the bidder's deposit of 46.59 million yuan, and the pre-sale housing fund of 77.59 million yuan. Canada
A total of more than 810 million yuan was defrauded through illegal fund-raising and land fees.
After repeatedly being deceived, "Wang Carpenter"'s appetite became even greater. He used advertising fees on credit to promote a more gorgeous "f-i soap bubble" in China's m-ng media: to spread the word among China's five minority
Each capital of the ethnic autonomous region built a "CBD". He began to operate in Nanning, Urumqi and other places, trying to use the same deception to make up for the broken capital chain between Hohhot and Yinchuan City.
Police investigation showed that Wang Xiniu defrauded 1.758 billion yuan in Ningxia and Hohhot. Although the construction projects in both places were unfinished, his own pockets were bulging. From September 2001 to January 2007,
He remitted more than 94 million yuan defrauded to his personal account in Beijing and squandered 14.56 million yuan of it. He bought BMW, Bentley, Mercedes-Benz and other high-end cars, wore Vacheron Constantin brand watches, and purchased real estate. A carpenter
How powerful can you be to deceive the governments of two regions? Wang Xiniu has a lot of experience in this. He confessed: "Archimedes said that if he was given a fulcrum, he could move the earth.
My law is: By catching the weakness of a government leader, I can shake up a city."
To sum up, the gist of "Wang Carpenter's" deception can be summarized in four words: do what he likes.
Some people like to "climb wealth and become nobles", so Wang Xiniu put on a lavish show. When he went to Hohhot to "invest", he took a stretched Cadillac sedan, followed by 8 bodyguards. The bodyguards were all dressed in black suits, had a crew cut, and wore sunglasses.
. He occupied a floor of a five-star hotel for 80,000 yuan a day, and the corridors were guarded by bodyguards. Whenever a leader came to visit, he stretched out his hand, and the bodyguard behind him immediately handed over a Cuban cigar.
Light it up all at once.
There was a classic conversation between the police and "Wang Carpenter". Police: "What is a CBD project?" Wang Xiniu: "I don't know, it's a foreign name. My secretary knows what it means."
