Chapter 6 Section 6 Life and Death Contest

In Xiamen, who will accept the report of Lai Changxing's smuggling? In mid-August 1998, "a group of justice advocates" sent the reporting materials to Yang Qianxian, the former head of Xiamen Customs.The report letter was quickly handed over to Lai Changxing.It was after the anti-smuggling work conference in 1998, Lai Changxing was forced by the heavy-handed anti-smuggling crackdown, saw the veracity of the report, and took the first large-scale action to destroy evidence. In the early summer of 1999, Lai Changxing quickly learned from Beijing's information network that the central government would organize an anti-smuggling task force to settle in Xiamen. He threatened: "The central government will also need the local cooperation to handle the case. It's nothing special. Come and I will take care of others."Whoever is not greedy for money and loves sex, I don't believe that the people in the Central Task Force are indestructible!

Lai Changxing is already a veteran in the battlefield, and his smuggling activities have encountered many storms, but relying on the net made of money, he always turned danger into good luck.Therefore, in the face of the arrival of the central task force, he not only hired legal consultants and lawyers from Beijing and Shenyang to provide legal "aid" for him to compete with the task force, but also wrote letters to appeal through some reporters and hosts in Beijing who had been used by him. Hua was framed and falsely accused of "grievances", and used various forces to confront the task force, and even released rumors that they wanted to "eliminate" the main leaders of the central task force.

However, when Zhuang Rushun, the former Deputy Director of the Public Security Department of Fujian Province, Lai Changxing's "brother", risked his political future and informed him of the top-secret information that the Central Task Force would use the state apparatus to arrest him, Lai Changxing came to his senses.To use his power to contend with the righteous force represented by the state apparatus is like hitting a stone with a pebble, so he had to flee in a panic. Lai Changxing wants to confront the Central Task Force, isn't he a little crazy?no.He has nothing to fear, he is confident that the power of that net will cover everything on Xiamen Island where he is entrenched.

First look at the municipal party committee and the city government.Two deputy secretaries, Liu Feng and Zhang Zongxu, and three deputy mayors, Zhao Keming, Lan Fu, and Su Shuili, have been "shuanggui" or taken legal measures. The 5-member group is like a leadership team, what is Lai Changxing afraid of? The Provincial Public Security Department has Zhuang Rushun, as well as brothers from the police and prosecutorial system in Xiamen City to help.A relative of Yang Qianqian committed a crime, and it was he, Lai Changxing, who came forward to settle it. A certain deputy governor of the province has also been "shuanggui".When he was in charge of Xiamen, it was the time when Lai Changxing's hegemony was in full swing.Besides, Lai Changxing and the heads of various power organizations in Xiamen City are not casual friends.Yang Qianxian is the head of the customs, but he, Lai Changxing, is also recognized by many people in the customs as a "member of the underground customs party group".Why?Because in the customs, Lai Changxing wants to promote the people he likes to key positions, and there is nothing impossible.Cai Haipeng of Xiamen Customs was actually promoted to the position of Director of Intelligence after being recommended by Lai Changxing to Yang Qianqian.Whose intelligence chief did Cai become?Lai Jun knows exactly when the anti-smuggling boats and anti-smuggling squads of Xiamen Customs will act.Of course, Lai's sea smuggling boats and land vehicles carrying smuggled goods were able to avoid the sharp edge, and there has never been an "encounter".Other departments, such as banking, taxation, commodity inspection, port affairs, wharf, Sinotrans, foreign agency, etc., all have personnel working for Yuanhua.Before the arrival of the central task force, Lai Jun sent someone to notify these departments to destroy evidence related to smuggling.

Outside the province, he also has a group of useful people who will work for him at critical moments. In June 1999, Lai Changxing fled from the Shenzhen port, entered the country through the Zhuhai port in August, and then fled from Shenzhen again. In the Guangdong Customs, there have been people who have tipped off Lai Changxing for many years and became Lai's smuggling high-ranking ginseng.Lai gave him a car specially for "intelligence". In June 1999, Lai Changxing prepared to import a batch of smuggled goods in a container and planned to clear customs in the south.He asked a cadre how to clear the customs. The cadre flew to Xiamen to teach Lai how to escape the monitoring of the Guangdong Customs. Of course, he passed the customs smoothly.

However, it remains to be seen whether "First Opportunity" can help him win the game this time!
