On April 14, the official WeChat public account of the Ministry of State Security launched the first episode of the blockbuster topic "Innovation Leading, National Security Sharpening the Sword" on the 4.15 National Security Education Day, summarizing and reviewing the ten major espionage cases cracked by the state security organs since the overall national security concept was put forward ten years ago, especially since the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China.
Among them, a case of "a scientific researcher sentenced to death for selling core secrets" was disclosed - the "shameful traitor - Huang Yu case".
According to reports, one day, the public website of a certain country's spy and intelligence agency received a message from China about defection, along with a shortwave password. The spy agency quickly confirmed that the shortwave code was indeed an advanced password used by the Chinese military. This mysterious refuge is none other than Huang Yu, a staff member of a classified scientific research unit in China.
It turned out that because he was notified to be on standby in the elimination of the last position in the unit reform, Huang Yu thought that the leader was crowding him out, and out of resentment, he decided to sell the core secrets he held to take revenge on the unit, and at the same time grab huge benefits.
Huang Yu used state secret information as a "letter of surrender" and was accepted by foreign espionage and intelligence agencies. Huang Yu, who received training as a foreign spy in Hong Kong and Bangkok, completely fell and began to sell the core secrets that he had illegally retained during his work in the unit. To make matters worse, he also deceived his wife, who worked in the same company, into copying classified materials in exchange for more pay.
In this way, the information secrets of the mainland's party and government organs, the military, and the financial and telecommunications industries related to confidential communications and information security have fallen into the hands of foreign parties, bringing serious harm to national security.
The state security organs took criminal coercive measures against Huang Yu in accordance with the law. After investigation, the number of classified documents and materials betrayed by Huang Yu included the design ideas, technical parameters, secret algorithms, source programs, source code, and other core secrets of many confidential communication equipment systems.
In May 2016, Huang Yu was executed.
Safeguarding national security is everyone's responsibility!
