Guangdong man sentenced to 2900 for being a gangster in the United States. Why?

Guan Yu is a must-see in many film and television dramas about gangs. Why do gangsters like to worship Guan Yu so much? The reason can be summed up in one word "righteousness". For a long time, Guan Yu has been portrayed as the embodiment of loyalty, and once upon a time in the United States, being honest with others was always an accompanying label. Gang consciousness is very strong, emphasizing unity and loyalty will naturally serve Guan Yu. But if we think about it carefully, do gangs really act according to justice? I'm afraid not. I rely more on this belief as a management tool to help them safeguard the interests of gangs.

No matter how loyal the gang is, the image in people's minds is evil, and everyone can't avoid it. So don't have too good illusions about gangs. Everything is just driven by interests. Gangs in China have a long history and even spread abroad. For example, Zhou Guoxiang, who once dominated San Francisco in the United States, was a heinous gangster in the story passed down from mouth to mouth, but he was affectionate and righteous to the people of China, just like the gangster who came out of the movie with his feelings about his country and the past in the United States.

In fact, most of the gangs in China in the past evolved from secret societies in the late Qing Dynasty, such as Hong Men, green gang, and the United League. After the victory of the War of Liberation, most of these secret societies emigrated overseas. Later, for various reasons, they developed into what people call gangs, and Zhou Guoxiang was once the head of the Hong Men court. Like many people, although Zhou Guoxiang was born in Hongkong, his ancestral home is Guangdong.

I don't know if it is a natural "mixed material". Zhou Guoxiang showed his loyalty at an early age. He is not tall, but he is brave. At the age of nine, in order to protect his younger brother, he dared to cut people with a knife and became a well-known problem child. /kloc-When he was 0/7 years old, he went to America with his family to make a living. However, people came to the United States to find a real job, but Zhou Guoxiang didn't. As soon as he arrived in the United States, he went to Hong Men to worship the mountain and soon became a member of Hong Men. In Hong Men, he was arrested by American police for armed robbery in the first year and was finally sentenced to 11 years in prison. Maybe Hong Men's boss thought Zhou Guoxiang was made of wood, so he quickly bailed him out. However, it seems that Zhou Guoxiang was emboldened by this bail, and was soon arrested for wounding with a gun. This time, he was not released on bail.

1989, Zhou Guoxiang was released from prison. On the surface, he is still the high-spirited gangster, but behind his back, he has secretly become an informant of the FBI to help the FBI provide clues. 0 1 year, under the designation of, Zhuang, the leader of the "Hehetu" gang, was arrested and imprisoned, and was also regarded by the outside world as the beginning of turning over a new leaf.

However, the fact is far from simple. All this is just one of Zhou Guoxiang's plans. He wanted to become the leader of Hong Men Court in San Francisco by shaping his noble image, and he got it in 2006. After becoming a leader, he really restrained himself for a while, especially organizing gangs to engage in legal activities to help the Chinese community in San Francisco solve problems. Once, even the FBI in the United States was deceived by him.

However, gangs are gangs after all, but Zhou Guoxiang's apparent set is behind another set. The idea of trying to engage in illegal activities by shaping his image was finally discovered by the FBI. 14 years, Zhou Guoxiang was accused of as many as 162 crimes by American courts, and was sentenced to prison in 1900. In court last week, Guo Xiang was calm and even said that even if he really committed a crime, Americans had no real evidence. All they have is his kindness to China people, and he has never bullied China people in his life.
