When the and manager-led corruption group, has played since November 1971 ended in June 1978, a total discount of corruption and embezzlement of a total of 507,702 yuan materials. culprit Wang Shouxin by speculation in the Cultural Revolution started, and got into the bad elements within the party, by speculative personal gain, between big sky accumulated to over forty thousand copies stored cash nearly fifty million, constitutes a crime of corruption aimed at hh bribe her: In seven years since Bin better once the construction of factories, coal consumption soared, while the coal production volume did not go, she must be on regional and provincial authorities to fight Bin coal, coal ship fight, fight the funding necessary for both hh long and because the northern winter is especially cold winter people is also a great amount of coal for heating.

(see October 21, 1979 But this that level, and even today many people do not know what a stock level, regardless of the official high official in the small, finally stand sits a 21 reported that Wang Shouxin sentenced to death, inside and outside of the Harbin Workers Stadium, 5,000 seats already filled with all representatives of the masses. There are those who participated in the previous period of time the court had witnessed Wang Shouxin the people; more people are in the news that the king trustworthiness of the case, and no opportunity to be reflected in its First heard from the hallway outside the door the heavy concrete floor In chains hit the (see Figure 1). in accordance with the practice in those days, any public trial offenders, escorting prisoners are always circling the week before the mob, after risking criminal sentencing cars paraded through the streets, until you reach the place of execution executed. The public trial of the General Assembly to plan also do the same. Wangshou Xin escorted into the hall, she set out looking hard at first, when the see the stadium filled with thousands of people to beat, and have actually come to the Manner children, her chance of a week by circling in public demonstrations, side of the force twisting the arms tied behind his back while jumping to jump up shouting: ; Wang Shouxin side jumping, one side shouting, feet In chains heavily hitting the hard wood floor, issued a dull hit the mark was shackled, very distressed to me, said: the General Assembly rostrum short people by surprise. bailiff who quickly surrounded up, want to stop her barking Scream. the presiding judge decided to give up circling the provisional week issued a directive to the judicial police detention on trial directly to the front of the stage to listen to her promotion. sentencing begins , the presiding judge read out the verdict for several pages. Wangshou Xin bailiffs escorted by two women standing there, because she thinks After going out from scratch, to continue the revolution it! . pronounced (see Figure 2). Finally, the presiding judge solemnly announced: Jump to shouting slogans: hh ; three large men approached the bailiff walked quickly and forcibly to stop her cries, the two people behind her tied up in the Shengsuo Le tighter, one hand grasp in front of her chin to pick up a push hook, and chin off the ring can no longer move, the bailiff called the term only half a tone to spit out the word silencer, and since she could no longer unable to pronounce the sounds (see Figure 3). At the time, I used a 35 mm wide-angle lens with a can be captured only by very close or close-up close-range. When I close to the camera, they can still feel her mouth and tongue like swing, but also hear some of her throat sent off and not hear a faint voice. pronounced general meeting, immediately condemned Wang Shouxin risking punishment cars, the liberation of her sitting in a car behind the truck license a wooden chair. At this point, I think just in the room with a flash shot from close range may be due to too past and overexposed, they want to make one of her sentence in the winter sitting in the sun backlighting the car photo, I quickly adjust the flash of light as a supplement. Wangshou Xin noticed I raise my camera to take pictures for her, even take a look at a camera before , and then deliberately released into the atmosphere in the forehead hair to force flung ears, looking calmly waiting for photography, is entirely a car in front to clear the way, there are two motor vehicle behind the criminal charge array. to expand paraded through the streets warning effect, punishing the car on the main streets in the urban areas spoke slowly moving forward (see Figure 5). the people from long ago News reports that today is the trial of Wang Shouxin the day, seems to have expected that today is her last day. on both sides of the main streets crowded with onlookers, all want to look at the sensational headlines mm What is Gesha look like? she is or how long with superhuman powers, ye will be able to vehicles to take me out interviews, this time he wanted to see the famous Wang Shouxin, let me be sure to take the chief editor's office sent a car note to his public rallies to interview out of the bus. He did not think I have to go to the execution ground after the meeting take pictures, can be broken into he was pleased that people have never yet seen the shot, this time opening the eyes can open a. and another three or four photographic counterparts to squeeze onto the back seat of my car, we are fast or slow to follow In the sentence, and behind, paraded through the streets of the route as long as we spend time McCain came from the mountains, it was a generous laugh about Wang Shouxin posture to die, it was said that if there is a red long scarf toss with the wind float up, like in the movie Sister Jiang prospective, we all share. I sat in front of the deputy seat, side by side in ridicule before the onlookers lined the windows along the street shooting scene (see Figure 6). to capture close-up before execution diversion this day, Chinese New Year is approaching one of the most cold days. by the city of Harbin's a long way to the execution ground, temporary open-top car as punishment out of the truck sped city in the cold, they all wore the bailiff thick leather hat and cotton gloves. I saw a criminal judicial police car was originally tied to the square neck scarves Wang Shouxin solution down to give her around the head, wrapped in her ears red with cold and cheek to ward off the cold wind that I do not know at this time she also did not feel the cold temperature (see Figure 7). In any case, see the upcoming executions of prisoners did the same kind of concern about the humanitarian move, I The heart is one of the action. Before, I had the experience to the execution ground cover, and seen a number of death row inmates have not reached before the execution ground, has long been scared out of their wits, and even the whole body limp, and some of the prisoners were just scared urine defecate a crotch. When you open the trunk board the truck, already unconscious on the death row ball rolling soon to fall to the ground, few people can walk their own, completely dragged by the bailiff Liantuo Dai Drawn to the execution point. This time, I first encountered an exception. car to the execution site, Wang Shouxin conscious, free to roam. bailiff to open the truck's rear compartment plate, she looked at the bailiff quietly put away a square stool in the snow, she got up and riding a hard move on the bench, she struggled to get rid of bailiff of the arm, moving to step off both feet with a heavy Restraints (see Figure 8). to get off, she did not forget the drift of a lock of hair in the forehead knocking Lianpang hard, and then to her air of calm around the torture chamber full of people looking around some (see Figure 9). Then she marching black snow on the ground, dragging the heavy fetters, throw off the arm bailiffs take significant steps toward its own execution point. Two bailiffs lifted the camera to take pictures, see me, they quickly approached by the hand of the arm for the Escort Wang Shouxin like (see Figure 10). The execution by firing squad in the place of execution side of the road in a suburb of Harbin's uneven land, building roads here when originally dug the place, less than 100 meters from the road. extensive media coverage at home and abroad, has long aroused the concern of the people on this big, and today came to the execution ground all the way live viewing executions particularly the masses. Wangshou Xin was taken to the execution point, French sergeant ordered her to kneel facing a black high slope, twisting her body as the final death throes, is unwilling to knees. a bailiff up from behind her According to hamstring is kicked, knelt on the floor she was forced on the potential, and the other bailiffs are heels, but also action by law waved Sergeant blocked (see Figure 11). Wang Shouxin as ;, the case is a It guarded the scene, took a Zhangyuan Jing is a dense mass of police and many onlookers, the future is verify the identity of the Wang Shouxin awaiting execution in the picture. This is a quite atmosphere of scenes of torture chamber (see Figure 13). A bailiff her head wrapped in scarves unlock the box, scattered it round her shoulders. Wangshou Xin facing black high slope, kneeling in silence, quietly awaiting the shot that one time. At this time, I want to make a last minute before execution Wang Shouxin the scene, with the consent agreement Sergeant law, they quickly went to Wang Shouxin holding the camera with black between the high slope of a narrow zone. I wanted very much take a close-up picture her kneeling in front, but unfortunately my camera just installed a 35 mm wide-angle lens, I used to take pictures of the composition is full of negative images as much as possible, the latter do not cut, only a distance of about one meter can be photographed kneeling to close. in such a close distance, shooting photographs in front of her death, if she wants to vent their anger, as long as spit saliva, entirely in In a few days will the New Year, this time if the person is dying spit, and that the more bad luck ah. To get the photos you want, you have to find a way. So I skillfully Sanshiliuji in diversion surgery: first from Wang Shouxin meters away in front of a horizontal nonchalantly walked over, the focus of the camera adjusted the walking distance. to go over, then turned and walked back the same pace, when coming up to her the moment, suddenly knelt down and quickly shooting, press the shutter, all actions are completed within an instant. In response she had not had time, I have snapped a Wang Shouxin woodenly knees, eyes atheism looked at the camera lens close-up screen (see Figure 14). the execution ground on a quiet, everyone hold your breath rate, waiting for the arrival of the execution time. the distance between cars on the highway are also parking stall, drivers and passengers are In the far around. execution ground next to only a handful of photographers, military and police personnel on duty stood neatly cordon, the massive crowd was far blocked all outside the security line. playing the first steaming through the skull fell to the ground to the execution time. law to be executed prisoners Sergeant standing behind, toward the stop in a van not far from the wave of his hand, which is an order to the bailiffs of execution. bailiff, a executioner walked calmly down from the car , a gun went to the designated firing position. Act sergeant at the scene issued a bullet to him, he immediately into the chamber (see Figure 15).

I am the first to raise his flag 抢拍 Sergeant made a law that, armed bailiffs targeting, Wang Shouxin the muzzle with his back to the had wanted to make a second film roll, the law made prayer flag sergeant forced downward swing, the sound of jitter in the hair prayer flag, the bailiffs pulled the trigger, bullets fly out of the chamber, after a direct hit in the Wang Shouxin the skull. in the gun loud moment, when I press the shutter slightly by gunfire shook shake and shoot the picture of such a moment: Wang Shouxin the head by bullets penetrating, brains burst, emitting hot air and cold air come in contact, immediately above her head turned into a white mist, the white cloud was clearly visible set off the black soil. Wang Shouxin the huge thrust in the bullet hit, the body leaning forward Zhao Qianfang fallen (see Figure 17). I will treasure captured This three successive frames, then when finishing the film not willing to cut these three films, has been preserved in its original state (see Figure 18). the fallen, completely collapsed. She can no longer shouting slogans, no longer jumping out. At this time, a number of photographers standing across from me also Qiangbu forward, eager to be executed after the shooting Wang Shouxin on-site scenario (see Figure 19). Act Sergeant came up and pulled out the pistol wearing waist, carefully observe the need to side, the death row inmates have not completely killed, we should make the gun fire by the French police chief to death.

In the small courtyard covered with leaves, the chance encounter around in Hu Yaobang for many years an old man, speaking, and he and his wife Monica also how much we are a bit deep edge of it, my wife, a deputy editor of the newspaper where his old friends, then the two of them are involved in advocacy on Hu Yaobang Practice is the sole criterion for testing truth, the great discussion. Hu Yaobang, general secretary of posts down from the future, this gentleman as a scholar was invited to give lectures in the United States, also lived in New Jersey. our side of the conversation, while he read my photo album of the Cultural Revolution, when the see one of two groups of photographs, he was surprised to ask: will know how my photos? He pointed to two sets of pictures of them talking about the whole story. The first group of photos, with the Cultural Revolution, the former second secretary of the CPC Central Committee and the Northeast Bureau of Heilongjiang Provincial Committee, first secretary of Ouyang Qin, as he relates Xiang Ouyang son wrote in the Cultural Revolution Revolutionary Committee of Heilongjiang Province, said his father was not against Chairman Mao, was hit by provincial Revolutionary Committee characterized as the existing counter-revolutionary Pan Fu-sheng, was brutally arrested by brutal persecution of political campaigns, and finally pushed downstairs killed, reported to a central say he killed himself. his mother wrote to Hu in Beijing has repeatedly called for his son vindicated several times ordered the Central Investigation, each time the conclusion is suicide. On one occasion, leading the newspaper suddenly talked to me and said Province Committee instructed me to take a group of brutal criticism of the photo Xiang Ouyang, Xiang Ouyang those photos dauntless shouted slogans, stopped by the mouth with a dirty cloth, spit it out still shouting, was knocked to the ground was still struggling hh I do not know what these photos with a Provincial to my heart going to get me listen to Harbin Province reporter photographed relatives and friends said her son has been criticism of the photo, Bianxiang Hu reflect this situation, the General Secretary of Heilongjiang Provincial Party Committee indicates direct access to this group of photos sent to the central, this newspaper has suddenly come to me to be the leading Group photo of the thing. the old man pointed at my album, said: suicide? he decided to overturn the original conclusion of suicide, giving rehabilitated. newspaper photographs of a reporter does not know exactly who is taken. all the talk, but it was you here? I record merit, it be late, , Wang Shouxin l case as the biggest corruption case since the founding of r, of course, big sky country l r, say in the case several times, Comrade Hu Yaobang, who advocated not to rush to homicide, so too late to kill after survey clearly . sensation, Wang Shouxin case be tried at home and abroad are concerned about major cases. But soon Wang Shouxin sentenced to death, the Heilongjiang provincial office on the phone gave Hu Yaobang, to consult whether the death penalty. Yaobang personally for the work around officers to the relevant departments of Heilongjiang and the central hang, said that Wang Shouxin General Secretary must be thoroughly investigated the case after the talk, the first not to rush to kill. Then he talked about a personal experience but little-known . October 20, 1979 news of the death penalty verdict Wang Shouxin), Hu Yaobang immediately grabbed the red machine and the Heilongjiang provincial chiefs call, and asked the Wang Shouxin kill it? the other answer was sentenced to death, but did not kill. Yaobang said that the first Do not try so hard to kill, and so are clear thing to say. After about three or four months, the newspaper and out executions Wang Shouxin the message (author note: I think it should be 28 February 1980 the news of the death penalty against Wang Shouxin ), this time is true, and I immediately told Hu Yaobang, he said I did not say not to rush to kill the first thing, he grabbed the machine asked the Heilongjiang Provincial Committee of red is how is it? returned the other, by referrals to the central competent Comrade Peng Zhen political and legal work has been executed by. Yaobang pound the table straight off the phone so angry, he had no words to say, people have died. eager to kill good ah, he's also quite when the General Secretary is not easy, which is difficult, and some people do not listen to him hh published in newspapers at all levels can only text message, are not allowed to publish pictures of the execution the execution ground. This group of photos at the bottom pressure has been more than 20 years. Robert. Pulei Ji edited used to select 10 books behind, as the end of this album. However, some of the judicial police brutality after the gun shots fired a no use, he said that this is an international publication of the routine. On the Edit process, Pu Leiji a say: the most suitable for the introduction of this writing (domestic called Spence called the One of the most important scholar, he specialized in the history of the United States very few books can be one of the best-selling author, in the Western world enjoy a high reputation. Professor Shi Jingqian to , as a Before that, he has photographed in Heilongjiang Province, a singular and important moment. Not since the days of the past, China has changed, at least this level of change to the following: working towards the development of small-scale capitalism, because farmers have more more rights under the household responsibility system in the long-term contract farming, individual entrepreneurs, some cities receive a small part of the freedom and space for the local market. In this changing economic environment, with the death of Mao Zedong during the Cultural Revolution's ; Gang of Four The case involved a man named Wang Shouxin the women cadres, she was able to monopolize the market for coal purchases, through a variety of relationships, greed, intimidation and bribery to establish a small business empire. This is a complex case, it took some time to get clear. But the truth came out later, Wang Shouxin has been shot. Li Zhensheng the last time they take to the snow in Heilongjiang tragic but rare cases. It is hoped that through the execution of Wang Shouxin warning to others. However, there are some pictures of Li Zhensheng Let us think what it is that simple. perhaps Wang Shouxin from military vehicles to the execution ground behind her to stare at our faces, when she was beaten by soldiers dislocated jaw so that she can not cry any request or abuse; may be She knelt on the cold ground look calm. In any case, Li Zhensheng some photos of ambiguity exists in the content, forcing us to constantly question our view is that the meaning of the content. This group of photos taken as Li Zhensheng to this terrible era Outstanding photo at the end is very appropriate. written in the back, then 27 years later, China's corruption cases not less, but more and more amount of money involved increases, more and more involved in corrupt post . only then occurred, case, involving former Minister of Land and Resources Tian Fengshan ﹑ Han Guizhi former chairman of the CPPCC Heilongjiang Province and other officials involved in the case of 265, including 7 provincial officials, provincial authorities more than 30 bureau-level cadres, city (county) level cadres large. then only is a unit-level cadres Wang Shouxin, in the The first official history of female arch corrupt official, involving 7.02 million yuan, only Pipansihuan; former governor of Heilongjiang Province, he served as Minister of Land and Resources Tian Fengshan, involving 4.98 million yuan, only a life sentence. can not help but wonder: Wang Shouxin was shot 20 years ago, and now arch corrupt official Han Guizhi, Tian Fengshan not damn? how in this area is not changing times?
