There is such a person, breaking the law again and again, escaping from prison again and again. This is a high-caliber student graduated from Zhejiang University, his IQ is not low, in order to prove that he can escape from prison, but also deliberately provoked the police, although he successfully escaped from prison twice, but was arrested and imprisoned three times, and finally successfully invented a brushless motor the day before the execution of the death penalty, obtained major merit, and was able to save his life.
His life sounds like a movie script, but it is a real event that happened in the Kunming Detention Center, and some people call him China's most legendary death row inmate.
Let's take a look at his life trajectory of becoming a criminal in ignorance, making great contributions before his death, reducing his sentence and getting out of prison to create value again!

He made the mistakes that men in the world would make, and from then on he embarked on the road of no return
Li Hongtao was born in Hubei in 1966, his parents are intellectuals, under the influence of the family environment, he has been brilliant since he was a child, with excellent grades, and won the second place in the national mathematics competition for middle school students in middle school, and was also rated as "excellent youth" because of his excellent learning.
In 1984, he took the college entrance examination and was admitted to Zhejiang University, which was ranked in the top ten in the country at that time, majoring in electronics. At this time, those who can be admitted to universities, especially famous universities, are basically young elites, and the future is smooth and the future is infinitely bright.
During his college years, Li Hongtao concentrated on his studies and accumulated a lot of knowledge in the field of electronics. After graduation, Li Hongtao chased his girlfriend to Kunming Resistance Factory no. 2 to work. The two soon became a family, coupled with the stability of the work, which can be described as enviable.
But at this time, he made a mistake that all men in the world would make, and from then on he embarked on the road of no return. Li Hongtao met a young and beautiful female college student, who soon developed a lover relationship, and he cheated in marriage. Soon the wife found out and broke up the family.
At this time, Li Hongtao's friend invited him to start a business together, and Li Hongtao agreed to give up a stable job in order to get away from his troubles, and from then on he stepped into the abyss step by step.
Soon after the two started their business, the company's capital turnover was in trouble, at this time Li Hongtao had no stable salary income, he moved his crooked brain, he forged the seal of a rich company, and used the bank loophole to transfer money from the bank to the company's money to an account opened under a pseudonym.
Li Hongtao successfully defrauded 80,000 yuan, but when he was ready to cheat for the second time, his classmates were caught on the spot, and he was arrested the next day. Li Hongtao, who had never experienced the life of a high wall, was not only not afraid but very excited, because when he came in and found the loopholes in the detention center, he had the opportunity to take advantage of it.
On the day of his arrest, Li Hongtao, who was proficient in electronic machinery, found that he could easily open the handcuffs, so he took advantage of the police to open the handcuffs while eating and escaped.
Li Hongtao came to Guiyang by train, stole a car, and had an accident in the middle of the way, but fortunately, he met a kind person who saved him and took him home to recuperate, and Li Hongtao was able to retrieve a life.
But he healed the scars and forgot the pain, stole a Santana police car again, and returned to Kunming all the way to Kunming, and openly appeared at the university where his girlfriend was studying, and finally caught again on the university campus.
After four or five months in prison for the second time, Li Hongtao began to become impatient when the case was still inconclusive, and asked the handling personnel to quickly characterize the case, otherwise he would escape from prison again.
Of course, the police regarded Li Hongtao's threat as a joke, and Li Hongtao's self-esteem was deeply hit, so he also pulled two prisoners together, used homemade tools to open the walls of the detention center, and finally escaped from prison again.
Li Hongtao, who was freed, did not care about running for his life, called the police at the first time to prove that he could do what he said, and then began to flee.
On the way, he finally experienced being unaccompanied and his life was bleak, so he wanted to do something, and with professional advantages, he began to invent the "brushless motor", which laid the foundation for him to obtain the propulsion charm before his death.

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="88" > wanted to prove that he was not useless, determined to invent research, and finally succeeded after several twists and turns</h1>
Li Hongtao, who returned to the First Detention Center in Kunming again, knew what he was about to face! Fraud, theft, and jailbreak are punished at the same time, and that is certainly death!
In addition, he had the idea of inventing a brushless motor before, so he sincerely asked discipline to let him do experiments, and in the era of all economic construction, the detention center leaders studied carefully, agreed to his request at risk, and specially provided him with a prison for laboratory.
In less than a year, he received a death sentence and deprived him of his political rights for life, but at this time, Li Hongtao was unusually calm, and he knew that his "brushless motor" was basically coming.
But until the notice of approval of the death penalty was issued, the experiment was still not successful, which meant that the time left for him was only 7 days, and the leaders of the detention center were also anxious, so they invited several experts from outside, and the experts provided him with the latest theoretical knowledge after inspecting the progress of Li Hongtao's experiments.
Therefore, the public security bureau sent the suspension of enforcement report to the Yunnan Provincial High People's Court overnight, and after deliberation and agreement to suspend the execution, Li Hongtao's life was temporarily saved.
Later, while applying for a patent for Li Hongtao, the detention center took Li Hongtao to the Electrical Appliance Research Institute to test the data and improve the model, and his invention of "brushless electric excitation motor" won the gold medal of the Fifth China Patent Invention Expo and the first prize of yunnan province excellent invention and creation, and at this time Li Hongtao could only appear in front of the public under the pseudonym "Yang Hongjun".

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="98" >Why invention not only saves the life of a condemned prisoner? </h1>
Any prisoner sentenced to death can be said to be the most heinous crime, their criminal behavior not only disrupts the social order, but also brings serious harmful consequences to society and others, and it is really impossible to give forgiveness, so it will be sentenced to death for immediate execution, and it is difficult to forgive the crime!
So why did Li Hongtao's invention save his life? In fact, after the death penalty is imposed, only those who have made major meritorious performances can be changed to a suspended death sentence!
The performance of major meritorious service is: the perpetrator exposes the major criminal acts of others after committing the crime, and the investigation is true; or provide important leads to other major cases so that other cases can be solved; Prevent others from committing major crimes, and assist judicial organs in capturing other major criminal suspects; and other acts that make a significant contribution to the state and society.
Li Hongtao's invention is in line with the major contribution to social progress, constitutes a major contribution, so that he can save his life, he also under the guidance of a successful step by step, step by step to improve into a person who contributes to society, transformation is very successful. Later, he also cooperated with the technical cadres and police officers of Kunming No. 1 Detention Center to develop a monitoring and management system, so that Kunming No. 1 Detention Center was rated as a national model detention center.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="105" > conclusion</h1>
Cure the sick and save people, punish the former and the latter!
This is the policy of reforming prisoners, one who, although he deserves to die for his actions, but who can be reborn because of his actions, is a successful reform that helps prisoners to reintegrate into society and become useful to society.
Although Li Hongtao's life trajectory is not worthy of our advocacy and promotion, it tells us a truth: when a person is in a desperate situation, through hard work and hard work, he has the opportunity to get a new life, and even have an epiphany in a desperate situation and make a major contribution to society.
