In just a few years, he achieved a reversal in his life.
Ordinary, he became the richest man on "Forbes", and was rated as the 15th, 17th, 16th and 10th places for 4 consecutive years.
It is often said that a gentleman loves money and has a way. Some people treat others with integrity and integrity. And some people have embarked on a road of no return for the sake of wealth.
Who is this person?
He was once the richest man in Hebei, Yang Zhuoshu.
From an obscure young journalist to the richest man on the Forbes list, how did he do it?
Why did the richest man in the past go to jail? What kind of story is there?
Nothing
On December 12, 1952, Yang Zhuoshu was born into an ordinary family. You say he's going to be the richest man in the future, and I don't think anyone will believe it.
When he was 6 years old, his father was branded a "rightist" (rightist, advocating capitalism and vigorously defending capitalist society).
At that time, the struggle against the Rightists was taking place in the country. Some people have seriously expanded the struggle against the rightists, resulting in many people being wrongly classified as rightists, and Yang Zhuoshu's father is one of them.
It is also for this reason that Yang Zhuoshu has been an "outlier" for 19 years.
Some people say that it is precisely because of Yang Zhuoshu's experience as a child that he is unruly and unscrupulous.
During his elementary school years, Yang Zhuoshu often skipped school and missed class, and he did not want to endure the blank eyes and sneers of others.
Luckily, in his 5th grade, a teacher admired him and led him back to the right path.
In 1978, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China decided to review the "rightists" who had been wrongly demarcated. It was at this time that Yang Zhuoshu's father was rehabilitated.
In 1993, Yang Zhuoshu had become the deputy director of the distribution department of Shijiazhuang Daily.
What is puzzling is that he gave up the deputy director of the distribution department, who seemed to be a smooth career, and instead turned to the real estate industry.
At that time, the real estate industry in the country was in a state of slow sales and loss. At this time, he intervened in the real estate industry and wanted to lay a foothold in the real estate industry, which made people feel whimsical.
Colleagues scoffed, not believing he could succeed at all, and waiting to see him hit his head and bleed. Friends and family around him worried about him and felt that he could not succeed.
But at this time, Yang Zhuoshu was like a gambler on the head. Whoever said it was useless, a mind to engage in real estate.
But what if you don't have any money?
You know, real estate is a big money-eater.
Under the cobbleromp, Yang Zhuoshu borrowed about 100,000 yuan. 100,000 yuan looks like a lot, and it was also a huge amount of money in that era. But for real estate, 100,000 yuan is just a drop in the bucket.
Daewoo Automobile, South Korea
What's next?
From a friend, Yang Zhuoshu borrowed a second-hand Korean Daewoo car.
The used car was then used as a deposit to compensate the farmers for their fees. In this way, he reluctantly took a 30-acre field.
With these 30 acres of land, Yang Zhuoshu began his own way into real estate.
With these years of media connections, Yang Zhuoshu successfully took a full-page advertisement from Shijiazhuang Daily on credit and then published such an advertisement on it.
At that time, Yang Zhuoshu claimed that all 60 services such as ride-hailing and sanitation were free, and the cost of water, electricity, heating and other services was 5% to 15% lower than the national standard. Trodat's villas cost only 1588 yuan per square meter.
Soon, the news spread throughout Shijiazhuang. Buyers and peers were shocked by the news, and they couldn't believe that the villa would be bought for such a low price.
At that time, the price of a commercial house was about 2,000 yuan per square meter. The price of this villa was actually about 400 yuan / per square meter lower than the price of commercial housing, which made buyers crazy at that time.
It is precisely because Yang Zhuoshu meets the interests and requirements of many home buyers. For a time, people went to buy houses with cash, and the scene was very hot.
It is said that there was a long queue early in the morning that the police needed to send special personnel to maintain order. Some people have come to queue up in the middle of the night, so that they can grab the house.
In just one month, Yang Zhuoshu successfully achieved the transition from impossible to possible.
Transformed from an ordinary person into a real estate businessman with a bulging wallet.
Rotten buildings in the city
Break through the jackpot
In a month's time, he successfully raised more than 46 million yuan.
With this funding, the projects were successfully launched. On the construction site, vehicles came and went, workers were doing a good job, and everything was moving in a good direction.
As everyone knows, there is an undercurrent surging under the surface of this water. With the "empty glove white wolf", more than 46 million was quickly spent.
How many "rotten buildings" there are, all because of financial problems. In the face of financial problems, how does Yang Zhuoshu solve it? Where did his money come from?
In the form of mortgages, he pressed the unbuilt houses into cement factories, steel factories and other companies in exchange for cement, steel and other materials.
In addition, he also brought cars, home appliances and other items on credit and sold them. In this way, Yang Zhuoshu successfully survived the difficulties.
develop
With the development, Zhuoda has gradually become a leading enterprise in Hebei Province.
Its business content covers real estate, education and other industries, and it occupies half of Hebei in terms of real estate.
Yang Zhuoshu is an ambitious and very good at grasping policy, and many of his operations are linked to the government's policies. It is also because of this that his career has done a good job.
For example, he once offered to let more than 3 million People in Shijiazhuang live in the houses he built. You say, would the local government not support such a decision?
He himself, can be said to be a complete workaholic. He only believed in himself, whether it was Zhuoda Group or its subsidiaries below it, Yang Zhuoshu was the president.
Trodat is his word, as long as he wants to start a project at any time, even if the project is opposed by everyone.
Everything was done by Yang Zhuoshu himself, in order to alleviate this situation.
He found 12 female secretaries for himself, and these secretaries were almost all young and beautiful, which also made the outside world talk about him.
In addition to these, Yang Zhuoshu also hired more than 10 bodyguards for himself to protect himself. He is also said to have hired more than 20 nannies for his parents.
Rescuing out-of-school children, donating to sick patients, comforting heroes who are killed, and so on, these are all things he is doing. It's not impossible to connect with an upstart, but that's the way it is.
In 2002, he was awarded the titles of "China Children's Philanthropist" and "Excellent Private Entrepreneur of Hebei Province".
In 2008, he was named one of the top ten philanthropists in China.
Career-wise, he continues to rise. As an ambitious man, he was reluctant to limit himself to real estate, and he began to expand further afield.
Since 1999, Yang Zhuoshu once wanted to build an industrial park. In cooperation with the government, he began to try to establish a clothing industrial park in Shijiazhuang.
There was no foundation, the first time involved, let this plan flat. But this did not make Yang Zhuoshu stop, but took a bigger step.
Shandong, Hainan and other places have begun to start, and the construction of industrial parks continues.
In addition to building industrial parks, he also looked at the field of science and technology.
Yang Zhuoshu bought a materials company and invested a lot of money in it. He not only invested in it, but also used financial means.
At the time, the company launched a wealth management product with a 32% return.
High rate of return, the aura of the richest man, and years of credibility suddenly overwhelmed everyone's minds. It is said that at that time, it attracted more than 400,000 investors to invest.
Some even threw their own coffins into it. This time, the amount of financing reached 10 billion yuan.
Materials Company's new materials have been developed, but what exactly is it, how to use it has become a problem.
Products can not be sold, the relevant financial products have become nonsense.
As time passes day by day, Yang Zhuoshu not only has to face the problems brought about by the blind expansion of the real estate industry and the investment of new materials, but also faces the pressure of payment of 10 billion funds.
A twist of fate
In 2015, a report in The Unbounded Press published the actual situation of Trodat.
At the time, Trodat had said. "Boundless News" is deliberately attacking Trodat, which is a "malicious slander" against Trodat, which has an ulterior motive.
In the face of this time, Yang Zhuoshu once again used the means of "making something out of nothing".
Yang Zhuoshu even announced that he signed a guaranteed housing contract worth 600 billion yuan with the Russian side.
But at that time, the Internet had become widespread, and people's news was no longer blocked. Just check it out and everyone will know if he is lying.
Soon, it was pointed out. Yang Zhuoshu is talking about the river, and 600 billion yuan is his nonsense.
In 2014, the total trade between China and Russia was only 585.188 billion yuan, and where did his 600 billion yuan come from.
People no longer believed in Yang Zhuoshu, and financing gradually came to a standstill. At this time, the Trodat Group was unable to fill this vacancy. Yang Zhuoshu wanted to return the money by selling real estate, but this did not go well.
Even if you mortgage the company, the billions of dollars you get are not enough. After struggling for 4 years, Trodat Group officially collapsed.
In May 2019, Yang Zhuoshu and his son Yang Hanqing voluntarily surrendered themselves.
At this time, he already had problems with his body. Since turning himself in, he has been treated at Hebei Medical University.
In November 2019, the Shijiazhuang Yuhua District People's Court conducted the first trial of the case.
Because of the special case and the excessive involvement, the court has not pronounced a verdict until now. For those who participated in the fundraising, the relevant departments carried out statistics and records.
Officials said that they will protect the legitimate rights and interests of the people and the masses in accordance with the law, so please continue to pay attention to it.
There is no pie in the sky, please treat investment rationally. I just don't know, what about the more than 400,000 people? When will the money be available?
