Established in 2011, Zhongjin Guorui (full name: Shenzhen Zhongjin Guorui Fund Management Co., Ltd.) has a registered capital of 100 million yuan, and the actual controller is Qin Peng. After completing the filing and registration in June 2014, it became a private equity investment manager. On May 22, 2019, Zhongjin Guorui, who has always paid in time, suddenly issued a liquidation notice, announcing that it would no longer pay the principal and interest, leaving more than 1 billion capital holes, which suddenly triggered a shock in the industry.

On July 9, 2020, the Shenzhen Municipal People’s Procuratorate issued a Notice on the Rights and Obligations of Victims of Qin Peng’s Suspected Crime of Fund-raising Fraud and Nine People, including Zheng Mingming, Yin Jie and Zhou Kairan, were suspected of illegally absorbing public deposits.

Over 1.8 billion outstanding, involving 1,400 investors.

According to the Notice issued by the Shenzhen Municipal People’s Procuratorate, the investigation organ found that Zhongjin Guorui did not use all the funds for futures and securities trading as agreed after publicly raising funds from unspecified people by means of public publicity, promising income returns and guaranteeing capital and interest, but directly used them as the company’s own funds to allocate and use according to actual needs. Most of them were used to pay the principal and income of investors due, and the rest were used for futures and securities trading. The operating expenses of the company, employees’ salaries, commissions, personal consumption in Qin Peng, foreign investment, repayment of the company’s historical debts, and some funds were transferred overseas to start companies and do transactions, resulting in a large amount of investment funds that could not be recovered and the overdue amount was huge.

At present,The amount raised by the three funds involved in the case issued by the company is 2.155 billion yuan, the amount paid to investors is 313 million yuan, and the amount unpaid to investors is 1.841 billion yuan, involving 1400 investors.

The Shenzhen Municipal People’s Procuratorate also stated that due to the large number of victims in this case, according to the relevant regulations, some victims could not be delivered after contact with our hospital, and now the victims in this case are informed of their litigation rights and obligations by means of announcement.

On February 7, 2020, the Shenzhen People’s Procuratorate approved the arrest of the suspect Qin Peng on suspicion of fund-raising fraud, and approved the arrest of nine people including Zheng Moming on suspicion of illegally absorbing public deposits.

The private placement was also registered with the association on April 28, 2019 for the Zhongjin Guorui Strategy No.1 Private Equity Investment Fund.

On May 14th, 2019, Qin Peng announced at an internal meeting that the product would be liquidated, no more funds would be raised and the principal and income would be paid normally.This caused an uproar within the company, because about 90% of employees have invested in their own products.

After the liquidation notice came out on May 22, 2019, a large number of investors rushed to the office of Zhongjin Guorui, located on the 36th floor of China Merchants Bank Building, to learn about the situation, and learned that Zhou Caihong, the financial controller of the company, and Xiang Jieming, the head of the risk control department, had left in April, and the company was in a state of suspension. A series of materials provided by investors show that Zhongjin Guorui claims to invest 20% as inferior funds to protect the safety of investors’ principal, giving investors fixed income ranging from 10% to 14% every year, and the excess part belongs to the fund company.

The missile didn’t explode due to technical error! Israel’s advanced missiles may be cracked

  "David sling" interceptor

  "David sling" air defense missile system

  According to recent Israeli media reports, the Russian military has acquired one of Israel’s most advanced air defense missiles, which was launched into Syria by Israel’s new air defense missile system "David Slingshot". The media in the United States and Israel are worried that this increases the possibility of Russia finding a way to defeat this cutting-edge system. The United States and Israel are more worried that Russia may share relevant information with Iran.

  Text/Guangzhou Daily All-Media Reporter Wen Junhua compiled

  The missile didn’t explode due to technical error.

  According to reports, the Russian military acquired the missile in July 2018, when the Syrian side launched a Russian-made missile from the Kashi tactical base in Toki, Russia. After calculating the path of incoming missiles, Israel waited until the last minute to launch two anti-missile missiles using the "David Slingshot" air defense missile system. According to the report, this is the first known operational use of the system.

  After that, the computer of Israel’s air defense system decided that the incoming missiles did not pose a threat to Israel, so it sent a self-destruction signal to the anti-missile missiles. One of the missiles was successfully detonated in the southern part of the Golan Heights in northern Israel, but the other missile did not explode due to technical errors and landed intact in Syria.

  At that time, the IDF defended the deployment of interceptor missiles, saying that its troops had taken the right action in a short time.

  However, the Israeli military said that for security reasons, it was impossible to disclose the technical reasons why the missile failed to hit the target.

  It is reported that the missile was recovered by the Syrian military and handed over to the Russian military, which has taken it to Moscow for research. Although Israel and the United States asked Russia to return the rocket, they did not get a response. However, neither Russia nor the Israel Defense Forces have confirmed the report that the missile fell into Russia’s hands.

  "David threw a stone at the rope"

  "David sling" is jointly developed by Israeli military giant Rafael Advanced Defense System Company and Raytheon Company of the United States. It is the latest medium-and long-range air defense and anti-missile missile system in Israel, aiming to make up for the loopholes in the Arrow long-range missile defense system and the Iron Dome short-range missile defense system. The system can not only intercept unmanned aerial vehicles, but also be especially suitable for intercepting short-range ballistic missiles of Scud and iskander class, which are common in the Middle East. Together with the longer-range Arrow 2 and Arrow 3 and the shorter-range Barak 8 and Iron Dome air defense missile systems, it can build a complete and rigorous anti-missile system.

  It is reported that since 2009, the United States has provided Israel with about $250 million in R&D funding every year, and the core components are provided by companies such as Raytheon.

  "David’s sling" is equipped with "Starner" two-stage interceptor missile, which adopts the world’s new rocket technology, has a polar rocket with a large specific impulse and a re-ignitable diode rocket. The interceptor missile has a maximum range of 300 kilometers, a shooting height of 30,000-70,000 meters and a maximum speed of 7.5 times the speed of sound.

  The missile is provided with long-range early warning and guidance by Herta’s EL/M-2084 active phased array radar, and is guided by dual-color imaging infrared photoelectric and millimeter-wave radar. It has advanced anti-electronic and anti-infrared jamming capabilities, the ability to change and re-lock the target in the middle, the high-speed wireless data transmission, the automatic integration into the combat system, and even the real-time reception of flight overflight information from airlines to avoid accidental injury.

  Russia may study undamaged missiles to improve the system.

  "This is of course a problem. If I were a senior manager of Lafar Advanced Defense Systems, I would be very nervous now. " Williams, deputy director of the missile defense program of the Center for Strategic International Studies in the United States, said in an interview with the American media.

  Williams said that what worries the United States and Israel more is that Russia may not only copy the system for its own use, but also share information with Iran. "If Iran seizes this opportunity, they may have the same system in two years." He said.

  Steven Norwich, an expert of the US-Russia Committee on International Affairs, also pointed out that Russia may use this missile to improve its own system, including "offensive performance and defensive performance". "As far as the air defense interception system is concerned, Russia is not ‘ Lazy man ’ They do have very advanced and sophisticated interception systems, such as S-300, S-400 and S-500 systems. " Stefanovic said.

  It is reported that when Russian President Vladimir Putin and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met in Sochi, Russia on October 12, Putin said that Russia attached special importance to cooperation with Israel in the security field. "I want to tell you frankly that our relationship on security issues has reached a new height mainly due to your efforts and military cooperation."

  Putin said that the interaction between the two sides is very important. Netanyahu also told the media afterwards that his direct contact with Putin avoided the conflict between Israel and Russia in Syria.
