"It has seriously disrupted the order of local social life, seriously affected the people's sense of security, happiness, and gain, seriously damaged the local natural ecological environment, seriously damaged the political ecology of Changjiang and the local fair and orderly business environment, and brought great harm to The credibility of the local government and judicial organs has caused extremely negative negative impacts..." In the notice of the Hainan Provincial High Court, four "serious" words were used in a row, which shows the negative impact Huang Hongfa's gang organization has had on the local area.
Since the late 1980s, the Huang family's evil gang has carried out a series of illegal and criminal activities in Changjiang, gradually establishing a strong position. In 1995, a gangland organization linked by the Huang family's clan power was formally formed. The organization has made money through a series of illegal and criminal activities such as opening casinos, illegal mining, forced transactions, and extortion, and has illegally controlled or significantly influenced more than a dozen industries and fields. From mining to transportation, from farmers' markets to entertainment venues, from waste recycling to the sale of motorcycles and electric vehicles... the organization uses its strong position in the local area to support and protect business with business, and obtains huge illegal profits through several economic entities. More than 2 billion yuan is used to support the operation and development of the organization.

Information released by the Hainan Provincial High Court shows that as of the time of the incident, the organization had carried out a total of 58 illegal and criminal activities, including 53 criminal crimes, resulting in a total of 2 deaths, 3 serious injuries, 13 minor injuries, and 5 minor injuries. serious consequences. These abominable acts have brought great fear to the people in Changjiang area, and many victims even dare not report the crime.

"When it comes to Huang Hongfa, no one in Changjiang is not afraid." Li Danhua, who once engaged in the wholesale of aquatic products, said that in 2000, Huang Hongfa tried to monopolize the market and robbed her of her business. Her son was stabbed six times to death by Huang Hongfa's thugs, and his other two sons were killed. Afraid of being poisoned, he was forced to leave his hometown.
In order to seek illegal protection, the organization used illegal profits as bait to lure, win over, and bribe many leading cadres of local party and government agencies and political and legal departments to act as "protective umbrellas."
"The most striking feature of the Huang Hongfa criminal group is that it uses crime to support business, uses business to cultivate power, and uses power to protect crime." Lin Lin, member of the Standing Committee of the Changjiang County Party Committee, Secretary of the County Commission for Discipline Inspection, and Director of the County Supervisory Committee, said that the gang uses economic interests to corrupt government officials. Infiltrate public security and relevant key law enforcement departments.

At the same time, he completed the formalities for the illegal construction coordination relationship of Huang Hongfa's underworld organization and interfered with Normal law enforcement activities of state agencies; Zhou Kaidong knew that Huang Hongfa's gang-related organizations had been engaged in illegal and criminal activities in the Changjiang area for a long time, but still accepted banquets and gifts from Huang Hongfa and his gang members, and used his position to cover and condone his illegal construction, illegal sand mining and other illegal activities criminal activity.
"The leaders of the public security organs and party and government cadres who were investigated were supposed to protect the peace of the country and safeguard the safety of the people. However, under the influence of Huang Hongfa's underworld organization, they ignored their responsibilities and finally chose to stand with the people. The opposite, degenerated into shameful blackness The relevant person in charge of the task force of the Hainan Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision said that the successful investigation and handling of major gang-related and evil-related cases such as Huang Hongfa's underworld organization and the "protective umbrella" behind it have ensured that the people live and work in peace and contentment and the society is stable and orderly. , the political ecology and the clear sky have laid the foundation.

It organizes and compiles case compilations, shoots special warning education films, and sets up warning education traveling exhibitions to carry out warning education for party members and cadres in the county.
The "protective umbrella" behind Huang Hongfa's case involves a large number of people, especially the "police umbrella" problem. Accordingly, the Changjiang County Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision held a special warning education conference in the county's public security system, and used the investigated typical "protective umbrella" cases involving Huang Hong in the public security system to once again sound the alarm for the county's public security officers.

Deepen rectification and return the market to fairness
"Although there are more competitors, I am very happy because the competitive atmosphere is fair." Recently, during a return visit to the Changjiang County Federation of Industry and Commerce, Changjiang Nanqin Waste Purchase Boss Chen of the station talked about the changes in the scrap acquisition industry and said cheerfully. Now he always pays attention to market prices. Whether he makes money or loses money depends on whether he can accurately predict the market. The entire business process is completely free. However, it may be difficult to tell from his smile that he once suffered from the monopoly of Huang Hongfa's evil forces in the scrap acquisition industry.
As early as 2008, Huang Hongfa's gang established Changjiang Hongwei Recycling Resource Recycling Co., Ltd., and through intimidation and price control, they completely monopolized the operations of the local waste acquisition industry in about ten years. The end of the monopoly in the scrap purchasing industry is a concrete manifestation of the results of Changjiang County's special campaign to combat organized crime.
Also realizing the return of production and operation to marketization and the free entry and exit of market entities is the motorcycle and electric vehicle sales industry that was once controlled by members of Huang Hongfa’s gang. An electric vehicle dealer who has been struggling under the evil forces of Huang Hongfa for more than ten years said: "Now it is really like 'keeping the clouds clear and seeing the moonlight.'"
Merchants in fruit and vegetable wholesale and farmers' markets express their opinions on the investigation and punishment of those involved in gangs and evil forces rejoice in the environmental changes brought about by the forces and their “protective umbrella”. "Now the stall fee has been reduced a lot. In the past, the stall fee for my meat stall was 23,000 yuan per year, but now it only costs 7,900 yuan. The pressure is much less, the business is getting better and better, and the income is good." A farmer from the Changjiang County Central Farmers Market Meat vendor Sister Wang said happily.
"It was so scary at that time! If we didn't pay the 'fine', they would come to the stall to rummage and smash things. So, even though we knew it was unreasonable, we didn't dare not to pay." Grandma Sun ran a stall at the Changjiang County Central Farmers Market After many years, I still feel frightened when I talk about the situation back then. Today, those days are gone. Not only can merchants do business in the market with peace of mind, but costs such as rent and vegetable prices have also dropped significantly, and business enthusiasm has significantly increased.
According to statistics, in 2019, there were 2,319 new market entities in Changjiang County, with a growth rate of 19.54%, and an additional registered capital (gold) of 3.2 billion yuan.Especially among the 11 related industries monopolized by Huang Hongfa's underworld organizations, 136 new market entities were added, including 34 companies in the motorcycle sales industry, 30 companies in the fruit and vegetable wholesale industry, 22 companies in the electric vehicle sales industry, and 50 companies in the scrap purchase industry. In addition, the scrap purchase prices that had been maliciously lowered have rebounded, and farmers’ market rents have dropped by an average of 60%.
With Huang Hongfa's underworld organization and its "protective umbrella" being eliminated, the county's Transportation Bureau launched a number of measures, and the results of controlling overflow and limit limits were recognized by transportation practitioners. After rectification, the local transportation industry market has returned to fairness and administrative law enforcement has become normal.
According to the relevant person in charge of the Changjiang County Transportation Bureau, during car chases in the early years, law enforcement officers chased illegal vehicles to the gate of Chahe Cement Branch. As a result, they entered, but the law enforcement officers were stopped by factory security and unable to enter. . "It's different now, and we have the confidence to enforce the law."
After Huang Hongfa's underworld organization was eliminated, the Hainan Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision organized a special investigation team to visit some neighborhoods, mining areas, governments, enterprises, rural areas, etc. in Changjiang County to conduct Conduct a special survey on the county's political, social and ecological situation, formulate a special report, and provide feedback to the task force, the Supervision and Inspection Office of Changjiang County, and the main person in charge of the Changjiang County Party Committee. Through a series of measures, the political effect, the disciplinary effect and the social effect are unified, injecting new impetus into purifying the political ecology and promoting healthy economic and social development.
