Zhang Xiangbin grew up on state welfare. From a poor rural boy to a cadre of national ministries and commissions, during this huge growth, the local government contributed money, the university alma mater contributed money, and university teachers contributed. is like this The child who was raised by China's welfare turned out to be the craziest lunatic who betrayed China one day.
has worked for 16 years and committed treason for 20 years. In the past 20 years, he has leaked more than 5,200 pieces of national intelligence, including 59 pieces of top-secret intelligence related to the overall security and interests of the country, 848 pieces of confidential intelligence, and 541 pieces of secret-level intelligence. .
This level will shock anyone who sees it.
The funny thing is that until the end, he didn’t know which organization the information was sold to. He was really counting the money for others after he was sold.
Why did Zhang Xiangbin, who has a decent job and a promising future, betray China? What's his final outcome?
The local government protected him from going to college.
Zhang Xiangbin was born in a very poor family in Guangxi in 1970. It was the late 1970s when he went to school. The college entrance examination was resumed in the late 1970s, and at that time it was required that high school students , Workers, Peasants and Soldiers , Young people from society can also apply as long as their educational level reaches the high school level.
As soon as the news came out, the whole country cheered. Although the Zhang family was in a small village in Guangxi, they also heard the news and decided that no matter how difficult it was, they had to send their children to school. If If he can get into college, then their family's life will be much better in the future.
So Zhang's parents borrowed money from all the relatives around them, and finally borrowed Zhang Xiangbin's tuition.
may be aware of his parents’ expectations of him. Zhang Xiangbin has been more calm than other children of the same age since he was a child. It is said that children in primary schools are more lively. may prefer playing than doing homework, but Zhang Xiangbin has shown that since he was a child Different from others, he is not very "social" and always studies and does homework alone.
Seeing how calm the child was, the neighbor even told the Zhang family's parents that their child seemed too dull and asked their parents to take more care of the child.
Zhang's parents knew that Zhang Xiangbin was definitely fine physically and mentally. He loved studying so much because he felt sorry that they worked too hard for his tuition, so he wanted to study hard to repay them.
In this way, with the full support of his parents, Zhang Xiangbin has a very stable study environment, and his grades are very good.
In 1988, Zhang Xiangbin was admitted to the Beijing Foreign Studies University. Hearing the news, the Zhang family's parents were very happy. They had begun to hope that Zhang Xiangbin would find a good job and get ahead in the future, so that their family's hard work over the years would not be in vain.
The most practical problem at that time was tuition. The Zhang family's parents sold everything they could at home, and borrowed money from relatives who were still willing to lend them money. At the end of the day, there was still a shortfall.
Just when the Zhang family's parents were anxiously thinking of a solution, the local government heard that this outstanding student was from their local area and was admitted to Beijing. From now on, he would be a talent promoted by their local area. In order to protect this local talent, the local government The government subsidized Zhang Xiangbin with a sum of money, and with the money raised by his parents, not only the tuition was covered, but some was left for living expenses.
At this time, Zhang Xiangbin was very moved when he felt the benefits. He cherished this opportunity very much and thought that he must study hard and repay the society after he gets to university.
The whole Zhang family fell into an indescribable joy. No one could have imagined that this son, who they were extremely proud of, would become a "traitor" in the not-too-distant future!
The school and teachers funded his training, and he successfully entered the central state agency.
Zhang Xiangbin left his hometown amidst the reluctance of his parents and the envy of his fellow villagers. When he came to the prosperous Beijing, he was greatly shocked. This is worthy of being said. A big city is completely different from my hometown.
But he was not fooled by the neon lights of the city. He was still determined to study. He knew that if he, a poor boy from a remote mountain village, did not study hard, he would never be able to integrate into this city.
There are many club activities in the university. Zhang Xiangbin changed his previous state of only focusing on studying. In addition to studying, he also actively participated in the school's interest groups and club activities. He was involved in many school activities, so that he could show his face in front of various teachers. With more opportunities, the teacher naturally noticed this down-to-earth and hard-working young man.
Seeing his hard work, the teacher seemed to see his own figure when he was young, because when the teacher was young, his family was poor, and he got there later. In Zhang Xiangbin, the teacher saw his potential for success, so he began to specialize in Go to train him, help him academically, and take him to participate in some translation work when there are activities.
In order to reduce his life burden, he also tried his best to help him apply for national subsidies. With the help of noble people like teachers, his college life is very fulfilling and meaningful. When
graduated, while other classmates were still sending resumes everywhere, he had already entered the translation industry and became a staff member of the International Liaison Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China.
With the accumulation during college, his professional level is very solid, so his ability was appreciated by the leadership. Finally, he was assigned to the Asian Bureau II, responsible for the translation activities of Northeast Asia and Indo-China countries.
Now it seems that this job is very good, professional, decent and enviable. Zhang Xiangbin also cherished it at the beginning. He worked very hard and the results were very good.
However, as time went by, Zhang Xiangbin felt some complaints. He saw other colleagues growing up, but he was still standing still. He felt that the leader did not see his excellence, which caused some resentment towards the unit and the leader. dissatisfied.
Over the years, he has been receiving various subsidies from his hometown government, schools, and teachers, so his journey has been smooth, but now at work, he no longer has noble people beside him to guide and support him. His state Something started to go wrong.
He always felt that his slow progress was because the leader did not appreciate him, but he did not know that this was all because of his mentality problem. Because of the help of professional teachers before, of course he made rapid progress, but he regarded this speed as It was due to his own ability that when he faced the real self without external help, he actually couldn't accept it.
After four years of wasting in his original job, he couldn't stand it anymore and began to look for a new way out. In 1996, Zhang Xiangbin applied to the organization to be transferred to work overseas.
At this time, he no longer had the heart to work hard and only wanted to take advantage of opportunities. He was looking forward to making big achievements in a new environment.
He did not expect that this would lead to a dead end.
was lured and seduced into leaking state secrets
Zhang Xiangbin accepted the arrangement of the organization and went to work as a permanent resident in a foreign country, and was mainly responsible for translation work.
Coming to a strange environment brought Zhang Xiangbin a sense of uncertainty and excitement. He curiously felt the life and customs of foreign countries. In foreign countries, there were no restrictions like domestic laws, so his heart was My uneasy heart began to agitate.
At this moment, a foreign stranger approached him. The man claimed that he was a staff member of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of this country. He was also a public official, not an idle member of society, so Zhang Xiangbin had no objection to his approach.
Later, this friend invited him to dinner. Zhang Xiangbin found that in addition to the person he knew, there were other strangers at the dinner table. These people claimed to be friends, and they were familiar with each other and took Zhang Xiangbin to drink. While drinking, these people People praised Zhang Xiangbin for a while. Zhang Xiangbin felt dizzy and satisfied. This was a feeling he had never experienced in China. He liked other people's compliments very much.
After dinner and wine, everyone started chatting. These foreign friends began to ask Zhang Xiangbin some questions about his personal life. Zhang Xiangbin just thought they were curious and answered them one by one.
Later, they naturally turned to asking about some topics in China, such as where is more fun in China, where is the most delicious place, etc. These are all very common topics, so Zhang Xiangbin answered them all, and he enjoyed others asking him Questions, listening to his answer process, it seems like someone else is asking for advice.
After getting along slowly, Zhang Xiangbin regarded them as real friends. Soon after, Zhang Xiangbin made another girlfriend abroad. Zhang Xiangbin was fascinated by the lively and cheerful enthusiasm of the foreign girl, and the two fell into a sweet love period.
Zhang Xiangbin had no idea that all the friends and girlfriends he knew were spies of the foreign intelligence agency . They compiled a huge network and tied Zhang Xiangbin tightly into it. However, Zhang Xiangbin did not notice anything was wrong yet, and he still He is obsessed with the beauty that this foreign life brings to him.
Zhang Xiangbin is getting deeper and deeper. These friends are starting to ask more in-depth questions. They used to ask non-core questions, but now the questions they ask are closer to the core, but they are very smart and package the questions beyond recognition. Usually They are all combined with some life scenes, which are the least likely to cause people to be alert. Of course, Zhang Xiangbin did not feel anything was wrong and answered all the questions patiently.
What he didn’t know was that his answers to questions were all recorded, which would become the starting point for him to dig his own grave.
Sure enough, a few months later, these friends took out this recording. They threatened him that this was evidence that he had betrayed the country. At the same time, they used money as bait to lure Zhang Xiangbin into taking the bait. From getting along with Zhang Xiangbin, they knew that Zhang Xiangbin was against He is very eager for money and status, and likes others to compliment him, so this trick directly hits his pain point.
In the end, Zhang Xiangbin’s foreign girlfriend gave Zhang Xiangbin the last straw. She told Zhang Xiangbin that if he didn’t agree, they would break up.
As soon as this last fire was added, Zhang Xiangbin was finally moved. On the one hand, he was a prisoner, and on the other hand, he had fame and fortune. He greedily chose the latter.
So starting in 1996, Zhang Xiangbin officially became a foreign spy. The first task he received was a very simple data collection. Data can be collected from the national intranet with just a click of the mouse, but He received a very generous reward, which made Zhang Xiangbin ecstatic. Let the spy feel more satisfied than expected.
After getting rich, these friends took Zhang Xiangbin to play everywhere and enjoy life. Zhang Xiangbin also completely let himself go, doing whatever he wanted, including bars and entertainment venues, and all the places where money could buy pleasure.
Over time, his private life became completely chaotic. He maintained improper relationships with multiple foreign mistresses at the same time, and gave birth to two children with a female diplomatic official.
Several years have passed, but his reselling of intelligence has still not been discovered. As a result, his courage has grown stronger, and the classification level and quantity of intelligence have also skyrocketed.
His time as a spy can be divided into two parts. The first part is from 1996 to 2008. During these twelve years, he used his position as a foreign officer to steal intelligence from within the unit and provide it to foreign countries.
During this period, he provided 14 top secret and confidential documents.
On the one hand, he is a national spy, but on the other hand, he still maintains his superficial reputation. While serving as the deputy director of a certain place, he also published "Vietnam's Measures and Experience in Developing Agriculture and Rural Affairs" in the core journal , Enhance your resume.
And in 2008, he resigned from his work unit. Perhaps in his mind, this way his danger could be reduced. This was the second stage of his espionage work.
In order to keep himself comfortable with food and clothing for the rest of his life, he decided to copy a large amount of information in the work unit before leaving, and then slowly sell it to earn pension money for himself.
How many pieces of information did he collect?
5200+ copies!
The police who arrested him later saw more than 5,200 pieces of information on his computer, including more than 50 pieces of top secret level, more than 800 pieces of secret level, and more than 500 pieces of secret level. They saw so much information involving the completeness of the country. They are all here for sale, and all the police are frightened!
Zhang Xiangbin confessed that most of this information had been given to foreign intelligence agencies, but he did not know which agency specifically.
He said: "Which agency or organization did the information go to? I'm still looking for it."
What he said was really ridiculous. After so many years of cooperation, he didn't even know who he had given the information to. He was totally in the dark. In an extremely passive position, he is like meat on a chopping board, ready to be slaughtered by others.
In 2019, the Baise City Intermediate People's Court sentenced Zhang Xiangbin to death with a two-year suspended sentence.
He didn't understand, and his parents didn't understand how the children they watched grow up became like this. Children who were raised by state welfare chose to betray the country. Whose tragedy is this?
But it is clear that Zhang Xiangbin has reached this stage entirely because of his own fault.
Regarding public officials like Zhang Xiangbin who work abroad, we hope that the country can improve their supervision. The struggle on the hidden front is going on all the time. Building the Great Steel Wall of national security and protecting the interests of the country and citizens is the top priority. Heavy.
