Peng Daxiang was sitting trembling in the cold cell at the moment, staring at the gradually fading sky outside the window, and his heart was mixed. He used to be the "godfather of counterfeit money" in China, relying on his exquisite copying and painting skills, he once controlled 90% of the country's counterfeit banknote market, and he was in the limelight with ease!
However, the greed in human nature will eventually corrode people's minds, and the excessive desire for money will slowly lead him to the abyss of depravity, and finally make a big mistake and fall into a state of no return.
Today, the old man can only spend the rest of his life in prison. Outside the bars is a vast world of freedom, and inside the bars is a shackle that he can never break free. Whenever he recalls his endless regrets, Peng Daxiang will be heartbroken, full of deep regret for what he has done in the past.
However, it was already too late, and he could only grow old in this narrow and closed space, burying this dark and filthy past in his heart forever.
Looking back on Peng Daxiang's youth, he was born into a poor family, and his parents barely survived on a few acres of barren farmland and heavy manual labor. Despite his family's financial difficulties, Peng Daxiang showed an extraordinary talent for painting from an early age.
In his spare time from herding, this lively teenager picks up branches and paints lifelike herds of cattle and majestic mountain silhouettes on the dirt ground. By chance, Peng Daxiang's talent was discovered by the neighbors.
They praised the boy as a natural painter and persuaded his parents to send him to school for a formal painting education anyway.
At first, Peng's parents scoffed at this. In their impoverished living environment, painting was just a pastime for the upper class, far from the real life of their urgent need to solve the problem of food and clothing.
However, after repeated persuasion from the neighbors, they finally made a compromise and agreed to let Peng Daxiang seek a learning opportunity with his talent for painting.
As a result, Peng Daxiang was able to apprentice to a teacher who was once a folk artist and had to make a living in an educational position due to his poor family. The teacher was full of praise for Peng Daxiang, a painting genius, and did not hesitate to pass on all his knowledge and experience to this proud protégé.
Under the teacher's dedicated explanation and strict guidance, Peng Daxiang's painting skills are like spring shoots breaking through the ground, growing day by day. He has shown extraordinary talent in both copying and sketching, and his independent works are full of praise and remarkable! Since then, he has developed a deeper love for the magical art of painting, which is as hot and firm as a burning fire.
"What is the practical use of painting? At the moment when the food problem is imminent, how can we have the leisure to care about these troubles?" Peng Daxiang's father expressed his opinion unabashedly.
In this way, Peng Daxiang's dream of colorful painting was ruthlessly stifled, and he had to return to that familiar field again, spending a long and tedious youth in heavy farm work.
Peng Daxiang, who was hit hard, began to question and waver about his artistic path. By chance, he mastered the art of counterfeit banknotes, and with his excellent copying ability, the quality of the counterfeit banknotes was so good that no one could distinguish the authenticity.
Once he tasted the sweet fruits brought by the crime, Peng Daxiang fell into endless confusion. Looking at the neighbors around him who had rapidly amassed wealth through illegal means, he felt a strong desire to live a life of luxury and indulgence like them, so he indulged in unbridled consumption all day long, and developed a deep boredom with the art of painting, which he once loved.
Since then, Peng Daxiang has embarked on a road of no return to the abyss of sin.
Time flies, time flies, Peng Daxiang is no longer the simple and kind peasant boy he was at the beginning, he has transformed into a skilled "counterfeit money maker". Initially, he was just trying to make ends meet, occasionally making low-denomination counterfeit banknotes for daily needs.
However, once the sweetness of sin is tasted, greed spreads like a frenzied weed.
In order to pursue higher simulation results, Peng Daxiang did not hesitate to spend a huge amount of money to buy special paper and pigments, and after months of hard work, he finally succeeded in drawing a complete set of highly realistic 1999 RMB printing offset plates.
Staring at this incomparable masterpiece, Peng Daxiang's heart was filled with an incomparable sense of accomplishment, and he was determined to give it a go and go further on this road of breaking the law and committing crimes.
Just when he was confused about his future development strategy, a mysterious figure quietly arrived - his name is Zheng Zhencai, who claims to be the founder of the "Counterfeit Money Army". When Zheng Zhencai saw Peng Daxiang's works, he couldn't help but be amazed and praised again and again: "It's amazing!"
You are simply a gifted master of counterfeiting! With just a few strokes, you can make the quality of counterfeit banknotes reach the level of exactly the same, which can be called a masterpiece of genius! Despite the hesitation in his heart, Peng Daxiang could not resist his magic in the face of the extremely tempting financial benefits, and decided to accept the challenge.
Since then, he has worked closely with Cheng Chun Choi to become an unrivalled gold pair in the counterfeiting industry.
Under Cheng Chun Choi's precise operation and strong marketing, the offset plates produced by Pang Tai Cheung spread like a virus across the country. In just a few years, Zheng Zhencai has successfully occupied more than ninety percent of the domestic counterfeit banknote market share, while Peng Daxiang is firmly in the position of the behind-the-scenes manipulator of this huge "empire".
The power of money can be described as omnipotent, and Peng Daxiang deeply agrees with this. Since the launch of the new renminbi in 2005, Zheng Zhencai has given him a new task - to produce the latest renminbi printing offset plates.
The security technology on the new banknotes has reached an unprecedented level and is almost unattainable by manpower, except for cutting-edge mechanical engineering. However, for Peng Daxiang, this is not a problem.
With decades of mastery and excellent drawing skills, he was able to complete this daunting challenge in just two months.
When Zheng Zhencai personally inspected the finished product, his eyes flashed with greed, and the whole person was so excited that he almost jumped. "Excellent! We can finally dominate the entire counterfeit banknote market!" he shouted excitedly, then lowered his head and said respectfully to Peng Daxiang: "I really can't imagine that you have already surpassed the peak! Without my full support, I am afraid that a genius like you will be buried."
Since then, Cheng has been as reckless as King Henry VIII of England has been in the field of counterfeit banknotes. Based on the newly developed printing offset plates, he rapidly expanded the criminal map and built a vast private "empire".
As the core figure of this "empire", Peng Daxiang can get a sky-high remuneration of up to 100,000 yuan every time he produces a set of printed editions, and his family is piled up with money, living an extremely luxurious life.
However, at the same time, with the intensification of counterfeit banknote criminal activities, the social order has suffered an unprecedented impact and serious damage. Taking Guangdong Province as an example, criminal activities of counterfeiting banknotes have occurred frequently in various cities in the province, causing extreme hardship in the daily lives of the masses.
In the face of such a grim and complicated situation, the local police attached great importance to it and decisively adopted the strategy of all-out attack and thunderous strike, and launched a huge arrest operation.
After a long time of waiting and an in-depth and detailed investigation of the informant, the police finally found a key clue. An important criminal surfaced and successfully locked down the hiding place of Zheng Zhencai, the mastermind behind the scenes.
When the police raided Cheng's residence, they were surprised to find a staggering amount of counterfeit counterfeit banknotes worth millions of dollars.
Once the tail of this "tiger" is mastered, the subsequent detection work becomes much easier. Under Zheng Zhencai's frank confession, Peng Daxiang's true identity was quickly exposed.
It is no exaggeration to say that since the printing template designed by Peng Daxiang himself, almost all the high-imitation counterfeit banknotes that have flowed to the market have come from his hands.
