"Prince of Dongguan" Liang: Why are self-made billionaires sentenced to life imprisonment?

Stick to our original wishes and remember our mission. Most successful people have developed rapidly, thanks to their Do not forget your initiative mind to some extent, and they will not run amok because of their success. The man we are going to talk about today has been on the Hurun Rich List for two years in a row, and is called "Dongguan Local Emperor". It can be said that he is very successful, but he was finally arrested for violating the law and committing crimes. He is Liang.

Smart mind.

Liang, born in Dongguan City, Guangdong Province, is talented and his academic performance is far behind. He graduated from South China Normal University with honors and won many scholarships at the university. After graduation, Liang did not choose to engage in the work corresponding to his major, but prepared to engage in enterprise management.

He has always been very business-minded, and he intends to start his own business. However, Liang's background is almost the same as that of most people, that is, ordinary background, ordinary family, and Liang's early venture capital is in short supply.

So Liang began to engage in some small businesses, such as barbershops and other small shops, but it was difficult for small businesses to make money, not to mention a lot of money needed for doing business. So Liang began to change his goal and stopped earning venture capital for himself through this small business.

In 1980, clever Liang saw that many people made a lot of money by smuggling goods. Although smuggling is illegal, it can make money, so Liang and his friends began to smuggle and resell auto parts. Like other smugglers, Liang earned a large sum of money in 15, which became Liang's venture capital, and Liang used this money to start his first industry-Prince Hotel.

Liang is very business-minded. With the reform and opening up, the economy has developed rapidly. More and more businessmen and investors have come to Guangdong, and the demand for hotels has greatly increased. However, Liang found that most other hotels are relatively cheap for ordinary people to live in. The consumption level and social status of these businessmen and investors are higher than ordinary people, and their needs are naturally higher than ordinary people. They won't stay in lower-grade hotels.

As a result, Liang, a talented city, established the Huangzi Huangjiang Hotel, which is positioned as a high-end five-star hotel. In this place where there is not much competition, the hotel has good benefits and many customers, so Liang made a lot of money.

The business map has expanded and the value has soared.

Prince Hotel made a lot of profits, but Liang didn't stop starting a business. He saw the social demand for oil and began to invest in the oil industry. It is reported that Liang has his own oil exploration points in many foreign countries, and there are also several oil wells in Kazakhstan, a country with more oil. In our current words, Liang is a person with a mine in his family.

Liang is also the chairman of Zhongyuan Group International Co., Ltd., and most of the shares of the company are in Liang's hands. These things invested by Liang were stable profiteering industries in those years, and Liang's worth can be said to be rising. What's more, Liang started from scratch, and the social evaluation of Liang is also very high. Liang has also been on the Hurun Report for many times.

Liang's worth is getting higher and higher, and he has become an idol worshipped by many people. But as the saying goes, money is better than power. Liang started from scratch, so he has no rights and no connections. So he began to engage in public welfare undertakings, improve his popularity and reputation, and shape his image.

He began to donate money to various social welfare organizations, support the country's army building, donate money to people with poor families, and help children who can't afford to go to school. In 2008, Liang also became a deputy to the National People's Congress in eastern Guangdong, which is an affirmation of Liang's social status. Liang also put forward many suggestions that are beneficial to the people and social stability, and became the best deputy in people's minds.

Liang's image in people's minds is also rising, so more and more businessmen and investors are willing to deal with him, and even many politicians are polite to him. Liang's business is booming, and he can be called a local tyrant in Dongguan. In 2007 and 2008, it was listed on the Hurun Report for two consecutive years with 654.38 billion yuan and 2 billion yuan.

Illegal crime, moral corruption

Liang's Prince Hotel is competing with other five-star hotels, and Liang wants to keep the business of Prince Hotel. So Liang started to open a sauna in the Prince Hotel, tel: 1998. At first, everyone thought that the sauna in Prince Hotel was an ordinary sauna.

20 14 Due to the social disorder in Dongguan, Guangdong, CCTV broke the news that the sauna department of Prince Hotel was involved in pornography. As many other places were exposed, the Ministry of Public Security of China sent an inspector group led by the director of the Public Security Administration to investigate in Guangdong Province, and also investigated the Prince Hotel.

The result is very shocking. More than 40 people were prosecuted for prostitution in the Prince Hotel alone. There is a large-scale prostitution in the sauna department of Prince Hotel, which has existed for more than ten years, and there are even more than 100 prostitutes. The sauna department of Prince Hotel even has its own prostitution system, such as price and age. Prostitution has always been carried out in an orderly way.

In the testimony, some people said that Liang even organized minors to engage in prostitution. He even participated in it, and he had his own room in the sauna to receive services. What Liang did was dumbfounded, but the income of this sauna was as high as 40 million. Liang gradually lost himself in the process of career development, forgetting that his initial intention was only to make money seriously, not to do illegal things.

During the trial, Liang also claimed that he was innocent. He didn't know there was prostitution in the sauna. But later in the sauna, I was severely beaten in the face by the testimony of some technicians. Moreover, when Liang was arrested, Liang was preparing to start another prostitution business, but because the industry was not successfully transformed, the court could not convict.

However, prostitution in the Prince Hotel is certain. Coupled with other crimes identified by the court, Liang was sentenced to life imprisonment for organizing prostitution, bribery by the unit, collusion in bidding and other crimes, and could only spend the rest of his life in prison.

Liang, a former prince of Dongguan, Guangdong Province, is a "local tyrant of Dongguan". He was worth more than 100 million yuan, but he gradually lost himself in the process of development, even knowing the law and breaking the law, and eventually became a criminal. Liang is clever, but he forgot his original intention and only cared about interests, so he failed and lost everything he cared about. This self-made legend is over, leaving only a sigh of some people who once admired him.
