Liu Liu's electric park expands

Liu was born in the bold area of Burma in 1962, "founder, chairman of the welfare group, commander-in-chief of the Longtan militia brigade" is his current foreign title, compared with the other family's family, he has no political "light ring" side, but does not affect the expansion of the Liu family's Burma cyber fraud map.

After completing bloody primitive accumulation through early drug crimes, Liu Zhengxiang and his family members established a welfare company in Kokang, northern Myanmar, in 1996. In 2015, Liu Zhengxiang's trading company developed into Welfare Group. In the later period, the group "upgraded and upgraded" the whole family through the gambling industry and yellow industry.

Compared with the "blood-sucking" of drug crimes, for the Liu family, gambling and pornography industries seem to allow them to "lie down". Relying on these low-risk and fast-generating black and gray industries to pave the way, the Liu family began to gradually gain a foothold in the tussle between major families in northern Myanmar with a wealth pattern of "daily wealth".

Unlike other family members, Liu's political resources were insufficient, forcing him to seize more wealth and engage in political climbing in order to gain greater economic benefits.

Yang Liang½£, a member of the investigative team for the crime group of Liu, said that Liu believes that money can open the way, "he paid special attention to some former officials who have retired or left the government in the course of the company operation, he dug these people, found a relationship for him, and gave him some political climbing."

"Relying on wealth and power" is Liu Zhengxiang's "destiny symbol" to always preserve his seat of power and living space during the regime change intertwined with the turmoil in northern Myanmar. Those "political assistance" that stems more from the binding of economic interests support him to continue to develop and grow his ambitions.

On the basis of illegal industries, the welfare group also advanced in the construction of real estate, border trade, civil brigade and infrastructure such as hydropower and network in North Myanmar, gradually forming Liu's commercial monopoly position in the local area.

Until 2018, the continuous transfer of telecommunications network fraud to northern Myanmar ushered in another round of so-called "new development." In the Dongcheng area of Kokang Old Street, there are many high-rise buildings owned by Liu Zhengxiang's family. Liu Zhengxiang provides ready-made places to attract financial owners to engage in telecommunications network fraud, and his park has developed the fastest as a result.

Tricking Chinese citizens into smuggling out of the country for gambling

Forcing women to accompany guests to take drugs

Among the four major families, the Liu family is considered to be one of the first families in Kokang, northern Myanmar, to systematically carry out electronic fraud.

Liu, using his own business group, has evolved from an electronic fraud from a criminal form to a highly organized and scalable criminal "industry", operating with a corporate management model, which not only makes electronic fraud "more efficient and standardized", but also brings illegal crime profits to the entire chain.

Deep involvement in e-fraud crime, Liu's first " advantage" is to bring the accompanying facilities and perfected real estate projects directly into the ready-made e-fraud park, and provide "pick-in accommodation" services for the fraudsters who are continuously flowing into Myanmar.

After keenly realizing the "employment needs" of the major parks, Liu also used the local human resources and social influence accumulated, set himself in the role of the "intermediary", quickly established a guarantee company, to provide the "human resources" of the various fraud parks in Burma and North Korea with a continuous supply of sources, becoming an important link in the control of this human trafficking chain, profiting from it.

There is a place, people, and "projects", the operation and expansion of Liu's electric fraud park is not less than the company's old-fashioned "pull-off help", originally the welfare group earned a lot of money by opening offline casinos and online gambling, with the injection of telecommunications network fraud, Liu's criminal group gained further expansion.

They attracted to tempt our citizens to smuggle abroad, to gamble in overseas casinos. At the same time opened online casinos, and recruited agents in the country, and conducted some online gambling in various provinces. Criminal suspect Liu Xiaobo said that Liu Group has four casinos in Old Port, East City, each casino has a website, and there are other websites, most of the time the daily flow can be tens of millions of dollars.

With the rise of large-scale electric fraud parks in northern Myanmar, Liu quickly captured the "business opportunity" and directed his eyes to the giant park owners and executives who held the giant fraud. for example, "After more of Kim, Liu re-established two new entertainment venues, which really allowed him to make free money for free, each wanted to bring home."

Police found that Liu¡¯s welfare group organized the recruitment and abduction of a large number of Chinese women to smuggle abroad, directly or forcibly to participate in prostitution, through the opening of porn entertainment venues. At the same time, these venues also specially equipped for drug smoking, provide ¡°good water¡± and other drugs to Kim¡¯s customers, and in a seductive and compulsory way arranged for the prostitute to accompany the guests to smoke drugs.

Relying on welfare to come to the group's industry, the Liu family provides not only a "supporting service chain" that is systematically squeezed, but also a "fund laundering chain" that converts fraudulent money. Through the names of water, electricity, network construction, operation and maintenance generated by its casinos, entertainment venues, parks and other industries under its name, the fraudulent proceeds will be transferred and "cleaned" in the corporatized operation system to complete the transformation from "black" to white.

ShilinÔ«, head of the Criminal Investigation Division of the Dragon City Public Security Bureau in Fujian Province, said that the general owner or executive level is eligible for consumption in casinos or entertainment venues, and the money of the black grey is equally unfairly consumed in the place.

The left hand gives money, the right hand makes money.

Liu has committed criminal offences worth over a billion dollars.

Unlike other families, Liu seems to pay more attention to the distribution of political power and the control of armed forces, and he seems to be more concerned about his social reputation.

In addition to the daily image packaging, Liu also funded the establishment of a charitable foundation, through donations, donations, donations to schools, successfully dressed themselves in the "loving people" and "social wisdom" coat. On the surface, dedicated to social livelihoods, regional development and other public interests, but in the darkness, focusing on the "timing of the moment", through the transportation of interests, the right to the source.

In the four large families clearly allocated landscape, Liu's family's scope of influence has been guarded by the old street and eastern city, and every evening the ban begins, Liu's landscape becomes the real "golden paradise" in the eyes of the fraudsters. detective Liu's crime group in Burma, Liu's crime group member Wu Yuanwei introduced, "In Dong Dong, as long as there is money, things can be done for what he wants, Liu's crime group can help him squeeze everything."

From 2015, Liu began to plan an armed force that could truly protect his family and industry, and in 2017 formed the Longtan militia brigade as a compensation, and through funding and maintenance, gradually privatized the local security force and police force.

With the rise of the electronic fraud "industry" in major families, the Liu family's militia grew from the initial 90 people to a total size of more than 500 people, equipped with a large number of advanced weapons and equipment, and the park built standard artillery buildings in a unified manner. Shi Linyuan, head of the Criminal Investigation Detachment of the Public Security Bureau of Longyan City, Fujian Province, said that because of its strong funds, the Liu family's equipment is the most advanced among the major families in the Kokang area.

Armed support can not only ensure the "safety" of the park's industries and resist external attacks, but also suppress internal resistance. Those who are disobedient, want to escape, or fail to meet standards in performance, who disobey management and want to quit the Liu family, and who participate in gambling and cannot repay their gambling capital will be tortured under the coercion of various armed forces.

¡°Don¡¯t look at them at all, all kinds of torture and abuse. If a girl loses money in a casino and goes to the casino to redeem her, she will also be forced to use drugs, and sometimes even forced to prostitute,¡± the criminal suspect once said.

Donate money and food with your left hand and make black gold with your right hand. In Liu Zhengxiang's repeated life trajectory, he and his family have already deeply embedded the cancer of electronic fraud into the social development and local power structure of northern Myanmar, making electronic fraud in northern Myanmar no longer a simple crime, but with an enterprise structure, industrialized chain, institutionalized management and politicized protection, telecom fraud has been built into a huge "black industrial system" rooted in northern Myanmar.

Shi Linyuan, captain of the Criminal Investigation Detachment of the Public Security Bureau of Longyan City, Fujian Province, said that the project investigation has found that since the beginning, the Liu family has developed step by infringing on the interests and property of the China people. It has now been verified that tens of thousands of people have been deceived in this way in the past few years, and cases abound.

With the core personnel of the Liu family to know the number, at present, the police have identified Liu's criminal group suspected of fraud, blackmail, illegal detention and other charges, verified that Liu's industry involves electronic fraud up to 28 places, gambling industry 7 places, the amount of crimes related to electronic fraud and gambling drugs and more than 10 billion yuan.

Although Liu's criminal group has disintegrated, many of the criminal group's middle-class backbone and owners continue to do evil in parts of Southeast Asia, and new crime parks are being established, the public security organs said that they will continue to carry out strikes with the aim of eradicating the criminal group.
