After refurbishing the damaged old wheels and selling them to the outside world, the risks in the driving of the car are chilling. The police cracked a case involving the manufacture and sale of wheels involving 43 well-known brands with a value of 280 million yuan.

In the Wobei Industrial Park, Luyi, Henan, there is a remote shoe factory. No matter the day or night, there is a noisy buzzing sound, which has a great impact on the surrounding residents. Some people say that this is a fake "shoe factory".

According to a report from CCTV Finance, after receiving the police from residents, the Luyi County police went to a shoe factory 3 kilometers away from the county seat and conducted on-site inspections in the name of firefighting inspections.

The police found that the plant covers an area of 2,600 square meters and more than 20 workers are refurbishing and producing old wheels. The roar of the machine rang throughout the plant.

The captain of the Economic Investigation Brigade stated that there are big problems with the wheels produced and processed by the on-site workers.

These wheels are not scratched and damaged, but the overall structure is damaged. The workers simply welded, polished, and painted, but did not perform substantial repairs.

Subsequently, the police came to the local business administration department and obtained the business license of the shoe factory.

According to the data, the factory registered Luyi Xingyu Auto Parts Recycling Co., Ltd. in 2017, and the business scope is recycling, repairing and sales.

The police preliminarily determined that the Xingyu car was suspected of counterfeiting the registered trademark, and soon started investigating the case.

Xiaojia, the policeman, entered the shoe factory and started his undercover job through recruitment. He was responsible for the first step of the production chain, polishing the recycled old wheels, and he was assigned to the work area outside the factory.

Here, Xiao Jia learned about the factory's production and processing procedures, personnel status, and their purchase and sales channels.

According to the police, this is a familial case. The 17 suspects who have been arrested are all young and all are relatives.

This company found a partner in the national metal recycling and second-hand goods market, purchased a large number of used wheels at a very low price, and selected processing with famous brand trademarks from them.

After labeling again, it will be sold at a price 20% lower than the market price. Its funds mainly flow to the three provinces of Zhejiang, Hubei and Henan.

The police found that there are many online internet points for these wheels and the storage warehouse span is also very large. It may be very troublesome to obtain electronic evidence.

After inquiring about tens of thousands of information on capital flows and logistics, the police determined storage locations in the three provinces, and obtained evidence on the sales of wheels in the auto parts market and 4S stores.

After investigation and evidence collection, the police found that the monthly sales volume of this company was amazing, with more than 32 million yuan in sales.

The most expensive is the Bugatti Veyron, a set of 4 wheels can be sold for four to five million yuan.

Under the deployment and deployment of the police, various dens in Zhengzhou, Hangzhou, and Wuhan were destroyed in one fell swoop, and 40 suspects were arrested.

In addition, a total of 13,340 finished wheels, 241 semi-finished products, and 8,045 scraps were seized in this case. The 43 automobile brands involved almost covered most of the brands in the market, and the case value was as high as 280 million yuan.
