I believe everyone knows that the price of Moutai has remained high in recent years, and if the price drops occasionally, there will be many people rushing to stock up, for fear of missing this good opportunity. In this environment, a certain tobacco bureau director hid 2,900 bottles of Maotai in his home. When he was arrested, the chief was still tasting a 50-year-old bottle of Maotai. Why is he so arrogant? Next, let's take a look at his story.
In 1989, Zhao Hongshun became a clerk in the tobacco bureau office. Since then, he has worked hard for a promotion. It turns out that Zhao Hongshun does have excellent ability in his work, otherwise he would not have been repeatedly promoted by the leadership. Until March 2019, Zhao Hongshun has become the deputy director of the Tobacco Monopoly Bureau. For him, it was enough to sit in this position.
He has been smooth sailing in his career, but he actually hides an unknown side, that is, he has an almost paranoid love for tobacco and alcohol, especially Moutai. Since becoming the bureau chief, Zhao Hongshun has faced some people who have asked for help every day. He is a "principled" man, and anyone who wants him to help must have a stepping stone: Maotai. If someone can come up with a Maotai that satisfies him, then no matter how difficult the problem is, he can help the other party settle it.
At first, Zhao Hongshun was a little cautious when accepting bribes, and he understood that once this kind of thing was revealed, he would not be able to keep this iron rice bowl. But as time went by, Zhao Hongshun became more and more arrogant. On the one hand, what he did did did not attract the attention of the relevant departments, on the other hand, these benefits made him a little fluttery. He was so immersed in money and power that he didn't have the heart to think about anything else.
Later, Zhao Hongshun's "reputation" was spread, and not only people in the system would ask him for help, but many private company bosses wanted to hug his lap. In this regard, Zhao Hongshun has always been a person who does not refuse. He followed these bosses out to eat, drink and enjoy the life of a drunken gold fan. At the dinner table, what he cared most about was whether there was a Maotai he liked, and if not, he would lose his temper on the spot and turn his face.
Over a period of eight years, Zhao Hongshun received thousands of bottles of Maotai. By the time he was captured, there were still 2,900 bottles of Maotai in his home. Of course, there are also many valuable items next to those Maotai, such as gold and silver jewelry and paintings of names. If it is someone else, it is estimated that these words and paintings will be well preserved, for fear of accidentally damaging them. But Zhao Hongshun directly threw the calligraphy and painting in the corner of the room. From this point, it can be seen that Zhao Hongshun's private collection is too easy, and these calligraphy and paintings cannot enter his eyes at all.
After eight years of arrogance, Zhao Hongshun completely left the regulations behind. When he was investigated by the relevant departments, he did not know that danger had come. On the day of his arrest, he also had dinner with a private company owner, where he enjoyed a 50-year-old bottle of Maotai. When the staff came to the door, he was immersed in the delicacy of Moutai. When he arrived at the liuzhi point, he actually fell asleep directly and snored from time to time.
During the investigation, Zhao Hongshun confessed that he did not pay attention to the regulations at all, and just after attending the NPC, he also dared to follow others in and out of high-end hotels. Over the years, he has witnessed the arrest and imprisonment of people around him, but he has been slow to come to his senses. Because he understood that as long as he no longer accepted ill-gotten gains, he would say goodbye to these Moutai completely. He couldn't bear it, so he went further and further down this illegal road.
After the investigation, people were surprised to find that Zhao Hongshun's stolen money amounted to more than 90 million yuan. This is undoubtedly an astronomical amount for ordinary people, but it is a breeze for him. Over the years, he has used his power to do so many dirty things that he is now responsible for his mistakes. After a court trial, Zhao Hongshun was sentenced to life imprisonment.
He was destined to spend the rest of his life in prison, never to taste his favorite Moutai again, and he had countless hours to reflect on what he had done. What we can do as bystanders is to learn from his story, always remind ourselves to stick to the bottom line, and temporary pleasures may need to be made up for for a lifetime.
