One day in 1999, in a sand quarry in Mianyang City, Sichuan Province, a vicious-looking middle-aged man was leading his men to patrol the working conditions of the sand quarry proudly.
"I have said it a long time ago, whoever dares to compete with me, Liu Han, I dare to bury him in the sand." The man headed by said arrogantly. When
heard this, his younger brothers all laughed in compliments, mixed with praise for this middle-aged man.
This man is very useful. Ever since he started his business through some unfair means, he has been dominating the Sichuan Province.
What is even more unexpected is that , a person with a profound underworld background, actually has the nickname "Sichuan's best person".
How did Liu Han make his fortune? What will be his final fate?
What to do to make money
Liu Han was born in Guanghan City, Sichuan Province in 1965. His father was a teacher with a stable job and a not low salary.
His father gave birth to five children in total. In such a family with many children, Liu Han seemed a bit inconspicuous.
However, Liu Han's father did not relax his discipline on them because there were many children at home. Because he was a teacher, he paid more attention to the education of his children.
Liu Han's father used his salary to send all the children in the family to study. Under his father's supervision, their grades were pretty good.
After graduating from junior high school, Liu Han successfully entered high school. According to his father's plan, he could have completed his studies like an ordinary person and lived an ordinary life.
But the world is always full of surprises. Before anyone had time to prepare, Liu Han quietly embarked on another path.
In his sophomore year of high school, Liu Han got acquainted with many "big brothers" because he was addicted to games. They took Liu Han around for fun and showed him a world he had never been to before.
Due to hanging out with them for a long time, Liu Han's grades plummeted. The head teacher noticed something strange about him and told Liu Han's father to correct his bad habits.
For adolescent children, parents’ blind persuasion will not work at all. Instead, it may push them into an abyss of no return.
Liu Han was used to the rules when he was a child. He was fed up with his father's endless persuasion. Therefore, not only did he not get rid of his bad habits, but he even worsened them.
Under such circumstances, Liu Han, as expected, failed to enter college, and his life path took an uncontrollable turn.
Liu Han's father was very disappointed with him because he failed in the college entrance examination, but no matter how disappointed he was, Liu Han was always his biological son.
Liu Han's father relied on many connections to find Liu Han a job as a welder in a factory. If he could work properly in the factory, it would not be a problem to support himself.
But Liu Han did not follow the path planned by his father. After working in the factory for three years, he disliked the lack of money earned in the factory, submitted his resignation, and began his own journey of hard work.
Liu Han saved 30,000 yuan while working in a factory. He planned to use this money as start-up capital to make his first pot of gold.
After studying the market trends and observing them for a long time, Liu Han decided to invest all his wealth in the timber business.
Liu Han’s original idea was to find the origin of the wood, trade with the local villagers, buy the wood at a low price, and then transport the wood to the local area for sale.
Liu Han has no skills and no productivity. He relies on middlemen to make the difference.
But after a while, Liu Han discovered that the method seemed to be able to make money on the surface , but in actual operation it was not like this.
Because the cost he needs to pay is the wholesale price of wood and transportation costs. The two combined are almost the same as the retail price of local wood. He cannot make much money from it at all.
After encountering a nail for the first time, Liu Han decided to start from the origin of the wood and find a place with a cheaper price.
I don't know whether it was the blind cat who encountered a dead mouse or whether Liu Han was destined to get rich. It didn't take long for Liu Han to get the news that Siguniang Mountain was blocked by heavy snow, and many transport vehicles could not enter.
The locals are willing to sell the wood at low prices, as long as someone dares to go into the mountains and transport the wood out.
Liu Han has no other advantages, except that he is courageous. As long as it is something that can make money, he dares to take action immediately.
That winter, Liu Han drove a truck into Siguniang Mountain alone. This adventure allowed Liu Han to accumulate his first initial capital.
After that, while doing the lumber business, he invested money in the building materials market. With both approaches, capital accumulated rapidly like a snowball.
The beginning of the underworld
In 1990, Liu Han's father unfortunately became seriously ill. Even though Liu Han and other brothers and sisters spent all their savings to treat him, he eventually passed away.
The departure of his father made the family's burden even more serious. The money Liu Han originally earned was very little left after paying his father's medical expenses.
Seeing his mother who had to carry the banner of the family because of his father's death, Liu Han felt very sad. He wanted to make more money so that his mother could live a life without worries about food and clothing.
After this, Liu Han asked his younger brother Liu Wei to also resign. The two brothers decided to go into business together to support the crumbling family.
The previous building materials and timber business was no longer enough to satisfy Liu Han's appetite. He wanted to find another way to make money from another track.
In the early 1990s, game arcades began to become popular in various cities. Liu Han spotted this trend and immediately opened a card game arcade.
At that time, Guanghan had more than just Liu Han's establishments of the same type in the city, and the cakes in the market were limited. One more game arcade meant that Liu Han had one more competitor.
When the business in the game arcade was poor, Liu Han couldn't eat or sleep well, so he focused on how to increase the customer flow.
Liu Han thought about it, and a bold idea came to his mind. As long as other game arcades disappeared , he would be able to achieve a monopoly in this field.
did what they said. The next day, Liu Han and Liu Wei recruited a group of promiscuous people from all over the place. They frequently beat up their colleagues and openly confronted the police and resisted arrest with guns.
The evil deeds of Liu Han and Liu Wei spread from then on, and the local people knew what they had done and were very afraid of them. From then on, Liu Han and his party became more fearless in doing things.
At the end of 1993, Liu Han illegally obtained a large loan from somewhere, which provided him with the capital to continue struggling.
Liu Han no longer focused on the one-third of an acre of land in the game arcade, but instead started futures , and made a lot of money from it.
Because Liu Han often speculated and used unfair means to manipulate the market, other investors lost their money. Over a long period of time, many people regarded him as a thorn in their side.
Beijing Jianhao Group Chairman Yuan Baojing held a grudge and spent a lot of money to hire a killer, preparing to secretly get rid of Liu Han.
As a result, Liu Han survived the assassination of the killer. This incident made Yuan Baojing very unhappy. He asked the killer to act again, but the killer used it to blackmail him.
Yuan Baojing didn't want to be taken advantage of by the killer, so she simply stopped doing nothing and killed the killer first.
In 2006, Yuan Baojing was investigated, and the matter was exposed to the sun. Yuan Baojing fell. From then on, there was no longer a competitor who could compete with Liu Han in the futures market .
Prior to this, Liu Han had already established the Sichuan Hanlong Group Company and hired a group of underworld thugs to cause troubles without restraint.
In 1998, Liu Han got involved in the real estate industry. He valued Xiaodao Village, Youxian District, Mianyang City, and planned to develop it into a new commercial housing community.
But he was very stingy about demolition compensation and was unwilling to give a figure acceptable to the villagers, so the two sides could not negotiate.
In order to make the project progress smoothly, Liu Han sent his thugs to Xiaodao Village to "persuad" the villagers. The villagers refused to accept this trick and confronted Liu Han's men with weapons. During the conflict, a villager was accidentally hacked to death.
However, the initiator of this incident, Liu Han's men Tang Xianbing , did not receive any punishment. It was as if this incident had never happened, and there was no further story.
Five days later, Liu Han commanded his men again, and shot and killed another underworld boss, Zhou Zheng. The reason turned out to be because Zhou Zheng competed with him for the game arcade business.
In 1999, a gangster leader named Wang Yonghua had a conflict with Liu Han. In anger, he said that he would blow up the Hanlong Group and teach Liu Han an unforgettable lesson.
But just ten days later, Wang Yonghua was shot dead in the street. The mastermind behind this incident was undoubtedly Liu Han.
In addition to the above-mentioned characters, more than a hundred people were killed by Liu Han and his men for various reasons. Liu Han was always particularly generous to those who could dedicate themselves to the company.
He said that as long as his subordinates fight for the "organization", no matter how serious the consequences are, including killing people, the organization will be responsible, and there will be heavy rewards for doing things that are beneficial to the organization;
should put the interests of the organization first, and cannot betray the organization if caught. Once the organization is implicated, they will be severely punished and even expelled.
He repeatedly rewarded his subordinates who shot his competitors, and was extremely harsh on his subordinates who did not obey his orders. Under his thunderous methods, his younger brothers surrounded him closely.
And his underworld empire is getting bigger and bigger. He uses the underworld to support business and resorts to huge profits for everything he can't solve. For a while, the Hanlong Group was unparalleled and became a giant in Sichuan.
The Double Life of the Underworld Boss
Perhaps all those who have done bad things like to use the persona of a philanthropist to flaunt themselves, so as to achieve the purpose of whitewashing themselves.
Liu Han was no exception. While he was not caring about human life, Liu Han was also doing his best to do good deeds. He built dozens of hope primary schools, allowing many children who had no education to realize their dream of studying.
During the Wenchuan earthquake , he donated 50 million yuan for post-disaster reconstruction. Including his previous donations, the total amount exceeded 200 million yuan.
People who are not familiar with Liu Han think that he is a good person, and he has also gained a well-known name - the most good person in Sichuan.
But only the local people know that under Liu Han's carefully designed coat of a good man, there is a vicious wolf that kills without blinking an eye.
Hearing the name "The First Good Person", the local people felt a chill and helpless fear.
Liu Han has relied on various illegal means over the years to amass 40 billion crazily. In addition to using the money to buy houses, cars, food, drink and fun, he has also used the money to illegally purchase guns, make friends with officials, and weave protective umbrellas.
Liu Han understands that if he has "no one behind his back", he will be punished by law soon if he is arrogant, so the first thing he does after he gets rich is to pay bribes.
Sometimes he would personally invite officials to dinner, and sometimes he would use his wife to meet with the officials' families to approach his goals in a roundabout way.
At every dinner, Liu Han would prepare valuable gifts, either jewelry or expensive bags . In short, the gifts he gave out must be irresistible.
In addition, Liu Han would also play cards with officials and deliberately lose at the card table to pay bribes without anyone noticing.
Liu Han's bribery methods are like spring breeze and rain, corroding many officials.
The former political commissar of the Criminal Police Detachment of Deyang City Public Security Bureau, the director of the Equipment and Finance Department, and the former deputy prosecutor of the Shifang City People's Procuratorate are all his protective umbrellas.
It was precisely because Liu Han had established connections that he was able to let his men do evil. During his more than ten years of dominance, the relevant departments had received reports about him many times.
But what is surprising is that Liu Han has escaped many arrests by the public security organs. The reason is simply that his protective umbrella tipped him off.
For a long time, the local people knew that Liu Han had great hands and eyes, and no one could punish him. When Liu Han was mentioned, the local people always showed fear.
When Liu Han's power was at its peak, he even reached a state where he responded to everything. Whether they were local gang members or government officials, everyone obeyed his orders.
His words are even more effective than those of some cadres. People who Liu Han can't stand will disappear from his sight in a short time.
"Liu Han has always been a winner, Liu Han never fails." Liu Han once said such an extremely arrogant statement himself, and he once thought that he would always be safe and sound.
However, China is a legal society after all. No matter how arrogant the underworld forces are, they are all equal before the law.
In 2012, the relevant departments decided to conduct a thorough investigation of Liu Han. In 2013, Liu Han may also have felt that a storm was coming, so he quietly ran to the United States, intending to avoid the limelight.
The task force responsible for investigating Liu Han did not alert the snake, but continued to dig deep into his criminal evidence. On August 7, 2013, Liu Han was arrested and imprisoned.
A month before, he had been escorted to Hubei. Facing the police, he seemed to think that he had the back-up to solve the problem, and shouted arrogantly: "You Hubei can't handle my case!"
After that, core members of the underworld who were involved with Liu Han and his protective umbrella were also arrested one after another. The people who were bullied by him shed two lines of tears when they heard the news.
On July 14, 2014, the court sentenced Liu Han, Liu Wei and five others to death. Liu Han was so collapsed that he even shouted "Protest!" twice in court, but no matter how much he protested, it could not change the fact that he had committed a crime.
The other 31 people involved in the case also received the punishment they deserved.
When he was executed in February of the next year, Liu Han's face was filled with sadness. When chemicals were injected into his body, he may have had many pictures in his mind.
Unfortunately, all regrets are unnecessary. He has fallen into this end by himself.
