Today I will share with you a real escape case:

"No freedom, no dignity"
"If you don't obey, you will be locked up in a small black room"
"I escaped 3 times without success"
"If you resign, you have to pay 50,000 yuan to 'redeem' money."
……
Zhang Mou, a 25-year-old native of Jingzhou, Hubei Province, was lured by a high-paying recruit in northern Myanmar, and after 9 months of torture, he finally found an opportunity to escape and sent a message to his family for help at the first time. The public security organs at the three levels of Hubei Province, Jingzhou City and Jingzhou District worked together to successfully bring him back to Jingzhou.
"There, no one treats you like a human being, it's really scary!" In the face of the reporter's interview, mentioning that nightmarish experience, Zhang Mou still had palpitations.
Armed security guards block the company's exit
"High-paying recruitment game customer service, monthly salary of 8,000 yuan, package air tickets, package accommodation, coordinates north of Myanmar!"
In June 2020, Zhang Mou, who was unemployed at home, saw such a recruitment message in a game WeChat group, tired of the life of an "otaku", and he was bent on going out to work hard to get rich, so he signed up for a job and left for northern Myanmar.
Sure enough, as the recruitment information said, the airfare and accommodation on the way to northern Myanmar were all handled, and at that moment, Zhang really felt that he had encountered the best job.
According to the instructions of the "company's personnel department", he flew from Wuhan to Kunming and then drove to Xishuangbanna. After a short rest in Xishuangbanna, the "docking man" got in touch with him and led more than a dozen "co-workers" who shared his dream of making a fortune all the way over the mountains, from motorcycles to pickup trucks, and from unknown paths to avoid border checkpoints, which lasted more than 10 hours to reach Ho Island in Myanmar.
The "company" is an 8-story house with a security guard holding a gun at the entrance, a courtyard wall and iron mesh nearly 4 meters high, and a large closed iron gate. Zhang was arranged on the 6th floor, and the "leader's" meeting gift was to ask for the handing over of his ID card and mobile phone. Zhang Mou understood at this time that the so-called free tickets, air tickets and accommodation were actually fraudulent people recruiting soldiers to buy horses to "invite the king into the urn", and he was completely deceived.
If you want to resign, you have to pay 50,000 yuan to "redeem yourself"
The "company" is like a closed world, each floor is surrounded by different fraudulent organizations, there are commissaries and milk tea shops downstairs, but the price of goods has increased by more than 3 times compared with the country.
Zhang mou was assigned to the "love group", that is, pretending to be a single successful man, using words to deceive women's trust, and luring the other party to fall into the "investment" trap step by step.
In the "induction training" that was subsequently forced, the "company" required that it must memorize dozens of pages of fraudulent "words", including various technical terms such as booing and warming, sweet words, and verbal provocations.
"I was forced to work for 16 hours a day, scolding when I wanted, hitting when I wanted, and no one cared about how I hit." Zhang said that the "company" on the 6th floor has nearly 300 people, working at 10 a.m. until 2 a.m. the next morning. The "company" sent out 4 mobile phones, added women through various dating sites, and then began to chat non-stop. There are 4 staff members who "stalk", doze off or do not work actively, and are greeted with a singing insult, sometimes a direct slap in the eye. "Once a woman is hooked, she must hand it over to the group leader as soon as possible and continue the following fraud links."
Do not go to the toilet for more than 10 minutes, smoke for no more than 5 minutes, and do not disclose any company "information" to the other party... The rules of going to work are very harsh, once violated will be fined 100 yuan to 1,000 yuan, repeated teaching is a severe beating, and threatened "who does not obey, cheat money, will be sold to the mine."
Zhang Mou said that his personality is introverted and not good at words, after knowing that the work is fraud, the psychological pressure is very large, even if he is familiar with the company's "words", it is still very ineffective when implementing fraud, and it is still "zero performance" after more than a month of entry.
Zhang Mou, who was suffering a lot, proposed to "resign". However, the company said that "according to the usual practice", it demanded compensation for its travel expenses, food and accommodation expenses to northern Myanmar, as well as the "management fees" incurred by the company, totaling 50,000 yuan. This is obviously "redemption" money! ”
After Zhang refused, the "company" locked him up in a "small black room", his hands were chained to an iron rod more than 1 meter high, his ass could not sit down, he could only squat or stand, a bowl of white rice every day, without any sound or light.
After two days of closure, the "company" came with a security guard with a gun to negotiate: "Either pay the money and leave, or go to work well." ”
Faced with the double torture of physical and psychological, Zhang almost collapsed and chose to continue to work.
Experience 3 thrilling escapes
Fear, anger and escape, these words echo in Zhang's mind every day.
"I escaped 3 times without success."
——One morning in October 2020, Zhang took advantage of the fact that everyone was asleep, quietly came to the 2nd floor, flipped from the window of the stairwell to the outside rain shelter, and then crawled forward more than ten meters along the rain shelter to the nearest corner of the courtyard wall. At this time, he could jump beyond the courtyard wall with one jump, but Zhang hesitated. It was pitch black outside the courtyard walls, what was underneath? If you fall and get caught, the consequences can be imagined! After wandering for nearly ten minutes, Zhang Returned to the dormitory.
——At the end of December 2020, a wall of the courtyard wall was damaged and repaired, there was a small hole, and the thin Zhang Estimated that he could drill out. In the middle of the night, he avoided the patrolling gun guards and rushed straight to the small hole, and as soon as his upper body was drilled out, there was a sound of talking outside. Zhang Mou was frightened into a cold sweat and hurried back. It turned out that there were special guards outside the cave.
Finally, after the Spring Festival in 2021, another once-in-a-lifetime opportunity appeared: due to the Chinese police's increased anti-fraud crackdown, the fraud company was in full swing and decided to move to a new location, from Hedao to Mengbo. Zhang also changed his "post" and was assigned to the "student loan cancellation scam". After the hasty transfer, the security of the "company" was greatly reduced, and although there were still gunmen patrolling, the original "high-wall iron net" no longer existed.
After carefully analyzing the terrain, Zhang ran to the deep mountain behind the house in the early morning of the next day. Zhang Mou said that after running for more than 1 hour, he had been scratched by a branch on his leg, but he did not dare to stop, and only wanted to escape. "When I ran to the back, I found that there was only a cliff and a cliff, and there was no way out."
The 3rd escape ended in failure.
China's brothers help to escape the "devil's cave"
"When I went to northern Myanmar, I put on my best clothes, and for more than half a year I was ragged and disheveled, like a beggar."
After coming in for more than half a year in this "iron prison", many colleagues began to "denounce", and the "company" decided to let everyone go out for haircuts in batches.
On the evening of March 20, 2021, Zhang and two other colleagues, led by a "leader", came to the market town, and after the haircut, the gambling "leader" gave Zhang 1,000 yuan, "You take them to eat and entertain, I go to the casino to play two." ”
The opportunity is at hand! After eating, taking advantage of the entertainment gap between the two colleagues, Zhang Ran to the street and stopped a taxi. "Drive fast, I'm going to the border."
"I'm Chinese! Is there any trouble? At this time, Zhang Mou, originally no one dared to believe it, but the words of his brother in his 50s in front of him made him feel warm and recount all the encounters. The kind brother drove for nearly two hours, took Zhang to HeDao in Myanmar, and asked him to find a hotel to hide for two days. "Now go to the border, it is very likely to be intercepted by the fraud gang, waiting for two days is the safest."
Zhang Mouyi went to the hotel, found a way to contact his family, and asked his family to quickly call the police. His mother quickly ran to the Police Station in Jingmen City, Jingzhou District, Yulukou Police Station to call the police for help, the institute will inform the criminal investigation brigade of the situation, Jingzhou City two levels of public security organs linked, through contact hubei in Yunnan border working group, for Zhang to point out a way back to China: "You must ensure your own safety, find a way to go to Menglian Port, we are waiting for you at the national gate." ”
Zhang Mou, who decided to make a desperate bet, contacted his kind brother to ask for help. In the early morning of March 22, brother arrived as promised, carrying him to a small road, avoiding a number of possible sections of the road, all the way to the vicinity of the Menglian port.
After several days of quarantine at the port, on March 29, Zhang finally stepped into the country, and the 9-month-long "nightmare" ended.
On April 13, the Jingzhou District Public Security Bureau formed a special team to go to Menglian County, Yunnan Province, to pick up Zhang Mouping, who had been isolated for 14 days. Zhang Mou was administratively punished by the Yunnan police for illegal entry.
Don't listen to others go to northern Myanmar, my experience is a lesson!
