"Thank you brother for the gift, and when the PK is over, I will fulfill a wish of the big brother of the list." Brush gifts, send red envelopes, you can see anything you want..." The female anchor has a sweet voice, feminine and moving, and Wang Lei (pseudonym) looks at it with excitement. In order to consolidate the status of the eldest brother of his list and capture the heart of the beautiful anchor, he kept recharging, fifty thousand, one hundred thousand, one million, ten million. The female anchor only rejoiced in the generosity of the "first brother of the list", but did not think that the money rewarded might be ill-gotten wealth.
Tips, game recharge, lovers... "Sweet Dream" wakes up, waiting for this "list brother" is a huge amount of arrears and 12 years of imprisonment.
forked road
After graduating from university in the 90s, Wang Lei was recruited to a company in Jinan to make a payment, responsible for providing financial accounting services, the scope of responsibilities mainly includes: daily capital, insurance control single shield (online banking shield), bank-enterprise direct K treasure, check payment password and other physical tools, after the completion of the payment application form, the payment method for the bank-enterprise documents for the bank-enterprise payment, fund transfer, etc.
After joining the company, Wang Lei found that the company's account audit was not strict, and the company mainly adopted the method of mutual verification between cashiers to supervise and inspect: each cashier took a screenshot of the online banking balance of the account for which he was responsible at the end of the month, and other cashiers checked the screenshot with the account balance displayed on the SAP enterprise management system.
This way of screenshot checking the account allowed Wang Lei to find financial loopholes, it just so happened that Wang Lei owed an online loan due to game recharge and consumption, and on the day of repaying the online loan, Wang Lei had a thought, a thought that pushed him into the abyss: use the company's funds to repay personal online loans, and then make up for it after the big deal.
The company stipulates that the single shield is kept by the cashier, and the review shield is kept by the project finance personnel. After Wang Lei got the single shield and the review shield, he did not hand over the review shield to the finance department according to the company's requirements, but secretly hid it himself. For the first time, he nervously embezzled fifty thousand yuan and used the method of spending money to find someone to modify the screenshot of the online banking balance of the account to evade the company's audit, due to the small amount of money, this criminal act was not discovered. In this way, Wang Lei embarked on the road of no return of embezzlement of public funds.
struggle
If there is a first, there will be an infinite number of times. After the first misappropriation of funds was not discovered, Wang Lei did not choose to fill the loopholes in time, his consumption was getting higher and higher, he would owe a huge amount of online loans every month, and the company funds in his hands were like "pie" that fell from the sky, and he was reluctant to spit it out again. The second time, the third time, he began to frequently embezzle the company's funds to repay online loans. "Save up and pay it back later, there is no money that will not be discovered." He was lucky.
At first, Wang Lei only dared to embezzle no more than 50,000 funds. "At first, I thought it was more than a hundred thousand, and I could pay it back." Wang Lei said. While he feared the consequences of revealing the facts of his crime, he enjoyed the unprecedented experience brought to him by embezzlement.
After tasting the sweetness, his boldness grew, two hundred thousand, three hundred thousand, and at most embezzled 1.3 million funds. At this moment, Wang Lei is still fantasizing that investment or winning the lottery may be able to fill the company's deficit. With the increase in the amount of embezzled public funds, Wang Lei used a large amount of money for game recharge, live broadcast tips, bar consumption, bath center consumption and so on. When the misappropriated funds exceeded 10 million, he thought he was unable to repay them and simply gave up on himself. Wang Lei was addicted to the sense of vanity in his hands with huge funds, and the face supported by the stolen money made him gradually lose.
Luxury
Bottomless materialism, by what to fill?
"I squandered all the public funds I embezzled." Until the occurrence of the case, Wang Lei embezzled a total of more than 48 million yuan of public funds. It has been confirmed that most of the public funds embezzled by Wang Lei are used for live broadcast rewards and game recharge, of which more than 20 million yuan are paid for live broadcasting and more than 10 million yuan for game recharge. "I also talked about a girlfriend and I spent nearly a million dollars on her." Wang Lei said.
In the eyes of bar marketing Liu Peng and Li Feng, Wang Lei is a generous young man who spends a lot of money. The consumption of hundreds of thousands of yuan at any time is a tip of tens of thousands of yuan. After Wang Lei's frequent consumption, the three of them established contact privately. In addition, after Wang Lei and his girlfriend He Dan established a relationship, He Dan resigned from the bar and lived in the luxurious house rented by Wang Lei, and the daily living expenses were borne by Wang Lei.
Late at night, Wang Lei wandered around the major live broadcast platforms, saw the hot female anchor wave is tens of thousands of yuan of tips, becoming the "big brother of the list" of many female anchors.
"At the beginning, I brushed very few gifts, and then the anchor guided me to brush gifts, and also organized me and others to PK." According to Wang Lei, in order to induce him to tip, the anchor will send him some exposed photos and videos and say some love words.
"Figure a happy" is the common answer of live rewarders, but perhaps, the word "emptiness" is more appropriate to them. The charm of the live broadcast room lies in this, allowing a realistic transparent person to get the sense of existence they crave, and for this sense of existence, they will not hesitate to spend thousands of dollars.
After having money in his hands, Wang Lei has not forgotten his hobby: online games. With a monthly salary of 5,000 yuan, Wang Lei can't help but squander in the game, and even owes online loans. After embezzling a large amount of company funds, Wang Lei was even more unscrupulous, he frantically recharged, purchased a large number of game equipment, found a substitute training at a high price, and recharged more than 10 million yuan before and after.
"I wanted to stop, but I had reached a certain status in the game, and I wanted to maintain this high status vanity, always feeling that someone had a higher status than me in the game, and I also wanted to upgrade to a high status." 」 This is what Wang Lei considers the "highest honor" in the game.
unmask
In 2020, Wang Lei used the online banking U shield of the company's cooperative bank account to apply for more than 600,000 yuan in the financial system. It was this embezzlement that made Wang Lei show his criminal feet.
Soon after, the financial director of Wang Lei's company received a call from a cooperative bank to verify the company's recent expenditure of more than 600,000 yuan. After verification, it was found that the money was transferred to wang Lei's account. When he was first discovered, Wang Lei refused to admit it, hiding four online banking U shields in the toilet and lying that they were lost, "My ID card and bank card are lost." ”
Subsequently, the company sent someone to replace Wang Lei's identity card and check Wang Lei's bank flow, and found a large amount of money transferred from the company's account. Seeing that he could not hide it, Wang Lei admitted that he had embezzled more than 48 million yuan of the company's funds. Subsequently, he surrendered himself accompanied by the company's financial manager and employees of the personnel department.
Recently, the case was tried by He Daoyun, a member of the party leading group, vice president, and third-level senior judge of the People's Court of Jinan High-tech Industrial Development Zone, and after trial by the court, a first-instance judgment was made: Wang Lei was sentenced to 12 years' imprisonment for the crime of embezzlement of office, and sentenced to confiscation of personal property of 800,000 yuan. Defendant Wang Lei had no objection to the facts of the charges, charges and sentencing recommendations and signed them off.
Tips, game recharge, lovers... Beneath the glitz is a bubble. After Mei Meng woke up, what awaited Wang Lei was a huge amount of arrears and a 12-year prison sentence.
The judge in charge reminded that enterprises should strengthen the construction of internal financial systems, increase constraint mechanisms, plug management loopholes in a timely manner, and prevent criminals from taking advantage of opportunities. In addition, financial practitioners should also abide by discipline and law, strengthen the concept of legal system, and conscientiously perform their work duties. Finally, we remind the general public to consume rationally, do not have the concept of comparison, and do not ruin their future for the sake of temporary greed.
