Features: In the past decade, an increasing number of "tycoons" and "moguls" from mainland China have arrived in the United States with vast amounts of undetermined assets, living extravagant lives. Many of them have fortunes and net worth that have reached astronomical figures. American Hong Kong and Taiwan tycoons, as well as white American tycoons, have been stunned by their opulence. Who are these people? Where does their wealth and "value" come from? What secrets lie behind their luxurious lifestyles? This book takes a kidnapping case as its main storyline, revealing through gripping and heart-stopping writing, the previously unknown and rarely discussed real-life details of the lives of economic criminals from mainland China in the United States. Not only is the plot intricate, but the philosophical, legal, sociological, economic, political, futurist, and psychological issues it uncovers are deeply thought-provoking. The book flows seamlessly, serving as a vivid textbook that offers insights into the social changes, corruption, outflow of state assets, and the rise and fall of various characters in the economic tide of contemporary Chinese society.
