This is the head anchor of a live broadcast platform - Wang, the main project of his live broadcast room is chatting and singing, and he once sang a cover of "Reluctantly", which attracted many fans for him.
Wang said that the song has been played hundreds of millions of times on the Internet. Wang, born in the 80s, is from Northeast China, and he entered the network industry in 2011. The later rise of the online anchor industry allowed Wang to earn the first pot of gold in his life. When he used the money to buy a house for his mother, his mother, who couldn't understand it at all, was shocked.
The rapid arrival of the webcast industry has also subverted people's understanding. In the past, chasing stars was chasing the stars on those screens and literary and artistic works, and they were far away and out of reach. In the era of live broadcasting, fans are Internet celebrities who meet in the live broadcast room every day, they chatter with fans, and at the same time, they will also create the aura of idols.
has both the sense of distance packaged as a star, and the down-to-earth spirit of grassroots Internet celebrities, Wang has his own fan circle. One of his fans said in a telephone interview with reporters that Brother Wang's fans are of all ages, and the oldest is in his fifties.
Li, who was born in the 90s, and Wang broadcast live on the same platform, he said that he had really experienced the kind of star-like hugging and hugging.
The biggest aura of the annual platform festival and fan meeting belongs to the champion among the top anchors. In order to win this award, the competition between anchors is fierce.
In 2019, in order to win the championship, the anchor Li said, who can help me win the championship, and I will return all the reward money. However, is it really the crowdfunding of fans that allowed these online anchors to reach the top of the championship? Netizen Shanshan said that she has rewarded Li with a total of several hundred yuan over the years. However, they found that some fans swiped out million-level gifts in a live broadcast. As a result, fans have changed from watching the anchor to watching the "big brother" of Li onlookers.
Calculate an account for online rewards, half of the money fans spend money to buy gifts is taken away by the platform, and then taxes and fees are deducted, and when the anchor withdraws, only 40%-50% of the reward amount is left. Then, even if all this money is returned to the fans who tipped, it has shrunk by more than half.
Prosecutor Zhu Qijia said that no ordinary person's hard-earned money will reward millions of dollars overnight, let alone be willing to lose half of the money to support them to win the championship because the anchor promised to return the reward. This phenomenon is extremely unreasonable.
In the process of receiving upstream criminal investors, the Pudong New Area Procuratorate found that the main culprit of fund-raising fraud had more than 100 million funds hit the live broadcast platform. This is a platform for sales without goods, that is, the more than 100 million funds are purely for rewarding consumption-based entertainment activities. Such abnormal behavior has aroused great attention from the prosecutors, and the result of the investigation of the case is that more than 60 million yuan was rewarded to the four anchors involved in the case, and the highest anchor accepted more than 20 million yuan.
Article 191 of the Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China stipulates that anyone who participates in these seven criminal activities, including providing accounts, converting them into cash, and covering up or concealing criminal proceeds, shall be punished as the crime of money laundering.
After the suspect arrived at the case, he defended that he knew that the upstream was black and gray industry funds and was involved in crimes, but it was not clear that it was involved in seven specific types of crimes. After review, it was found that the two anchors among the main culprits had repeatedly arrived at the office of the upstream fund-raising fraud gang, and then also participated in their annual meeting. Relevant content was promoted in his live broadcast, so the procuratorate believes that it is sufficient to determine that he is aware of the content of the predicate crime in this case.
After the investigation of this online anchor money laundering case, the procuratorate noticed that the platform lacked appropriate early warning in money laundering activities, and the procuratorate believed that the platform could not give up supervision just because it "got half of the benefits in the tip".
During the interview, the reporter learned that the two anchors involved in the case entered the society after graduating from middle school, they ran through the construction site, served plates, and used to be ordinary laborers. And the rise of online live broadcasts has made them feel like they are standing in the wind and soaring all the way up. From the on-site arrest video of the public security organs, it is not difficult to find that several suspects not only live in luxurious residences, but also start companies and have teams. However, such hot money and quick money may be effective in a short time, and illegal and criminal activities will inevitably be severely punished. The first case of money laundering by an online anchor is to convey a positive energy and show the sword to the good and bad work and lie down to win criminal activities.
