I saw a news a few days ago:
Xing Weilin, a Chinese boss with a net worth of tens of millions, was trafficked to Myanmar, suffered inhuman torture for more than 50 days, and was stranded in Southeast Asia for more than 100 days.
Now that he recalls the thrilling experience, the darkness of northern Myanmar still haunts him.
Human trafficking, coercion and abuse, telecommunications fraud, drug trafficking, killings, organ trafficking......
Putting all of these terms together is not enough to describe a real horrific encounter.
Today, the editor will sort out and share this story that is more bizarre and thrilling than the movie, hoping that more Chinese people will understand how terrible the real northern Myanmar is.
Wake up
He was sold to Myawaddy
Xing Weilin is a travel agency owner with a net worth of tens of millions and more than 100 stores in China.
At the end of August 2022, Xing Weilin set off for Changsha for an investigation, but was temporarily unable to go home due to the epidemic in Guiyang.
So he thought that the tourist route from Yunnan had been selling well, so he temporarily decided to take one more stop and go to Yunnan again.
On the high-speed train to Kunming, he met a "colleague" who was warmly accosted.
At first, this "colleague" claimed that he was also a tourist and had been developing in Thailand, and invited Xing Weilin to visit and investigate.
At that time, Thailand was about to be fully opened for tourism, and Xing Weilin also heard the news, so he left the contact information of the other party.
For a short time after that, that "colleague" has been sending him messages and phone calls, advocating that he will make a fortune after the epidemic by laying out a travel route in Thailand as soon as possible.
Xing Weilin, who had not waited for Guiyang to be unblocked, was moved, and thought that it would cost a few thousand yuan to go to Thailand, so he decided to take a trip.
When the "peer" heard this, he said that he would arrange a car and a hotel for him.
Xing Weilin didn't want to be short-handed, so he didn't agree, but he still exposed his itinerary.
As soon as he landed, the other party took the time to call and said that someone had been arranged to meet him at the airport.
The local weather in Thailand was bad that day, and the car was not easy to fight, so Xing Weilin didn't think much about it and got into the other party's car.
After getting into the car, Xing Weilin drank the water handed by the other party.
Subsequently, the occupants of the car began to smoke, and he quickly collapsed in the back seat and fell asleep.
By the time I woke up, it was already the next morning.
Xing Weilin found himself in a boat, accompanied by four dark-skinned men.
He tried to communicate with them using translation software, but they didn't even have a single expression.
After a while, the boat docked, and he found that he was "greeted" by foreigners, as well as soldiers with guns.
At this time, Xing Weilin probably understood in his heart that he had been sold.
It wasn't until he was sent to his destination and met a Chinese that he knew he had arrived at the legendary Myawaddy.
The Chinese arranged Xing Weilin to a collective dormitory, pointed him out the location of the supermarket and canteen, and told him to be honest and obedient, and to wait for the boss to come back.
Xing Weilin regretted it very much, and he shouldn't have carelessly listened to strangers.
But he doesn't know what he will face when he enters this fraud park.
Do not dry ash production
will be sold to the high seas to cut the waist
Myawaddy is located in Myanmar, just across the river from Thailand, and is known as the terminus of Southeast Asia's human trafficking chain.
Xing Weilin heard about it, so when the mobile phone was not confiscated, he hurriedly and secretly contacted his son to call the police.
However, Myawaddy is controlled by local armed forces, and it is impossible to get people out through regular channels.
As he learned more about Myawaddy, Xing Weilin finally realized that he probably wouldn't be able to get out.
A few days later, the "boss" as the Chinese called him returned and told Xing Weilin more information:
He was sold in for 300,000.
Trick two more Chinese under the age of 30 into coming in, and it is possible to regain freedom.
If you can't do it, you will work honestly and do gray production, and there is no third way to go.
……
Subsequently, Xing Weilin's mobile phone and luggage were inspected and confiscated one by one, and 22 mobile phones and a stack of speech materials used for telecom fraud were also distributed.
Soon, Xing Weilin, who wanted to resist, was beaten with a stick for the first time, and he didn't even have to eat.
So he pretended to be obedient, tried to get his phone back, waited for help, and asked how much ransom he needed to let him go.
But the "boss" smashed the phone in front of him and threatened him that Myawaddy had no precedent for ransom people, and those who had tried to escape were tortured and crippled.
Slowly, Xing Weilin learned from his colleagues that the words of the "boss" were not false, and those who did not obey orders or could not get "performance" ended up very miserably:
If you don't raise your account well and get blocked, you will be beaten and fined.
Newcomers can't contact anyone, and only when the fraud amount reaches 1 million can they have a mobile phone.
If there is no performance, it will be sold to the high seas, cut the waist, Myawaddy is the second largest port in Myanmar, and it is easy to go out on the high seas.
Previously, 3 Chinese tried to swim to Thailand to escape, one was sent back by the Thai side, one died in the river, and the other was arrested before going down the river.
……
After learning enough information, Xing Weilin realized that entering this place was a dead end.
He became more and more determined to run away and die outside the park.
But his first escape ended in failure.
Fortunately, he didn't carry his belongings at the time, and the other party couldn't find evidence to survive.
At that time, he didn't understand that even if he escaped, there was a high probability that it would be a dead end.
Escape by luck
But he was sold into the mouth of the tiger by the black police
On November 13, 2022, Xing Weilin, who had made sufficient preparations, secretly climbed out of the 5-meter-high fence in the early morning.
At that time, he was already tortured to a very weak point, and when he landed, he fell and suffered multiple fractures all over his body.
While the night was still dark, he gritted his teeth and crawled in pain, seeking rescue from passers-by.
Because once the day dawns, the people who check the ward find out that he is not there, they will surely die a miserable death.
Xing Weilin met a local family on the way to escape, and he stuffed some money before saying that he would move the other party to send him away.
He thought he had escaped from the devil's cave, but when he was looking for a hotel, he revealed his identity as a Chinese and was taken away by a black policeman.
At first, Xing Weilin did not know that the policeman was colluding with local armed forces, and thought that he had found a savior.
Later, he found out that he had been sold to a Burmese warlord.
And the "general" still wants to sell him, and the buyer is nothing more than the bosses who are engaged in fraud in the park.
At that time, there were three groups of buyers, and two of them did not take a fancy to Xing Weilin, who was old and seriously injured.
Finally, the Burmese couple insisted on buying him, saying they would find him a good "company".
Xing Weilin saw that he was going to be sent back again, and desperately negotiated with the "general".
He lied that as long as he could help him return to China, not only would his family ask for a ransom, but he would also bring money to invest afterwards.
Subsequently, Xing Weilin tried to contact the family, and a ransom was called, and the "general" agreed to let him go.
On January 5, 2023, after dozens of days in the prison of the Thai Immigration Bureau, Xing Weilin finally successfully returned to China through the coordination of relevant domestic departments.
This nightmare, which lasted for more than three months, is finally over.
Xing Weilin, who was originally more than 150 pounds, lost weight to 100 pounds during this period.
The injuries on his body have only recently healed.
But he is glad that his body is not missing "parts", and he is even more glad that he is still alive.
a narrow escape
Finally escaped and returned home
In recent months, Xing Weilin has been interviewed by a number of media outlets.
From some of his descriptions, it is not difficult to find that Myawaddy is like purgatory on earth.
Xiaobian also believes that after reading these words, no one will still be lucky and delusional to go to gold panning.
1. "There are two kinds of people who are controlled in the park, one is called 'dog push' who works normally, and the other is called 'piglet' who has not been sold by different companies for a long time, and they are not treated as people. ”
2. "As long as you enter the park, even if you pay the ransom, you will not be released, and there is no precedent for releasing people there."
Only parks and companies sell to each other, and if there is no performance, they will be sold to the high seas. ”
3. "In the telecom fraud park in Myawaddy, Myanmar, no one can save you.
If you are very poor, then you can't go back, you are very rich, and the other party will not let you go back easily. ”
4. "I learned from the warlords that there are at least 50,000 Chinese in more than 30 parks throughout Myawaddy.
They stayed for a minimum of 3 years and a maximum of 9 years.
There is a 21-year-old Guangxi girl in the second phase of Hengsheng Park, who has been in Myawaddy for 3 years, but she has not met the performance requirements, and she can't even afford sanitary napkins.
The end of these people is that there is no ending, Myawaddy is called the end of the "piglet", and if you go, you can't get out. ”
5. "The park is full of eating, drinking, prostitution and casinos, and many people are corrupted. ”
6. "There are hundreds of companies in eastern Myanmar, all of which are protected by different armed forces and pay money to these armed forces. ”
7. "If a person has no performance in a certain company, he will be sold to another company at a higher price."
Many people have been trafficked multiple times.
The boss of these wire fraud companies will think that a person's lack of performance is due to the mismanagement of the previous company, and they may issue bills after arriving at the new company. ”
8. "Whichever company collects the ransom and releases the person, it will be jointly blocked by other companies."
So if a person is really worthless, he will be sold to the high seas. ”
9. "Someone called back 3 million from here, but the family actually couldn't receive a penny, which exposed that he was doing wire fraud." ”
Xing Weilin also said:
"It was a lot of luck to get out. ”
In fact, after reading this story, you will find that every step of his escape is very thrilling, and if he is not careful, he will die.
It was also because of his flexible mind and solid family background that he finally got a glimmer of life.
Here, I hope that the Chinese people can continue to be vigilant and stop fantasizing about going abroad to get rich overnight.
Once you set foot on this road, you are really on a road from which there is no turning back.
