In this era when everyone wants to stand in the wind and dream of getting rich overnight, Westport has been promoted as the next Shenzhen by many people with ulterior motives, attracting countless people to come to this beautiful Southeast Asian city without hesitation.

The prosperity of the west port is like artificial fireworks, which come and go quickly.

Xigang, a small town on the southwest coast of Cambodia. Westport has one of the best beaches in the world and the largest deep-water port in Cambodia.

With the convenient traffic environment and rich tourism resources, the Cambodian government has always wanted to turn Westport into an international metropolis and further develop the national economy.

In order to develop the western port, the Cambodian government promulgated a series of preferential policies and established the western port as the only special economic zone in China. And many media also took the opportunity to build momentum, claiming that Westport will become the next Shenzhen. Under the influence of policies and propaganda, Westport has become the target of many foreign enterprises.

First, it attracted Japanese and Taiwan Province enterprises to settle in. After 20 16, the main investor of Xigang became a Chinese enterprise.

In order to speed up the development of Westport, Cambodia follows the model of Genting Hotel in Malaysia, encourages foreign enterprises to open casinos in Westport and issue gambling licenses.

The policy of encouraging the opening of casinos has undoubtedly given Westport a shot in the arm. In a short time, there have been nearly 200 applications for opening casinos.

In 20 18, the Cambodian government issued 52 casino licenses. By 20 19, this number is the time when various casinos have mushroomed on the land of Xigang.

In addition to government-permitted casinos, various illegal casinos have mushroomed.

The rapid rise of Westport Casino is due to the arrival of China people. According to statistics, from 20 16, in just three years, more than 500,000 people from China came to Xigang for gold.

In 20 18, 65,438+600,000 China tourists visited Cambodia. The number of tourists from China accounts for 30% of 20 18 Cambodian foreign tourists.

Besides Angkor Wat and other scenic spots, Westport's casinos are the most popular places for tourists from China.

A large number of China people gathered to attract enterprises to enter local real estate, which once made Westport City a big construction site. The emergence of a large number of sea view rooms also gave birth to real estate speculation.

In 20 17 years, the house price in Xigang has reached more than 10000 yuan. In contrast to the high housing prices, the average annual income of local people in Xigang is less than 20,000 RMB.

In Westport, China people will always feel strange and familiar.

The streets are full of tourists and migrant workers from China. Supermarkets, restaurants and hotels are all run by China people, and the services provided by these places are no different from those in China.

Therefore, Westport was nicknamed "China Enclave" at that time.

Driven by high housing prices, housing prices in Xigang area are also rising gradually. In the second half of 20 18, ordinary people ate a snack in xigangshan county, which cost about 16 USD.

It is precisely because of high prices and high housing prices that many people think that pushing tea eggs in Westport can make money.

China people flocked to Westport, whether they came to invest, work or run the gambling industry, in fact, they did not build this place, but left for profit. Too many speculators are very unfavorable to the development of Westport.

The economic benefits brought by China people make illegal immigrants and gold prospectors from Vietnam, Thailand and other countries flock to Westport.

In addition, there are various underworld forces quietly entering the west port. Faced with the turbulent capital flow and people flow, the supervision of the Cambodian government is far from in place, which leads to the disorderly expansion of black industries such as gambling and drugs in Westport.

Many casinos will inevitably lead to competition. In order to make huge profits, many casinos mainly target China tourists. Because many casinos are run by China people, many casinos have developed a set of marketing methods aimed at China people, that is, by deceiving people from China to gamble in casinos.

However, this method will not last long after all. In order to find new customers, casinos have changed their thinking and conducted online gambling for domestic people.

This kind of online gambling needs a large number of China people who are familiar with the domestic situation, and this demand has formed a special intermediary to deceive China people.

In terms of casinos, in the name of a Cambodian company in China, it is claimed that the company includes benefits such as air tickets, accommodation and sea view rooms under the guise of "recruiting high salaries", so as to attract China people to work in Westport.

At that time, many people in China lost their minds after seeing high salaries, thinking that they could make a fortune in Cambodia. What these people didn't expect, however, was that they had entered a hell.

Online gambling industry is called "online investment" and has become a mature black industry in Southeast Asia.

This industry has its own management mode and unique slang. For example, the owner of an online casino is called a "dog farm", and the employee responsible for attracting customers online is called a "vegetable farmer".

In addition, the industry has also achieved information sharing, especially those who escape the control of casinos, and will be included in the "blacklist" between casinos.

China people who thought they would do well-paid jobs in Cambodia lost their personal freedom as soon as they got off the plane.

When they arrive in Cambodia, they will be controlled by the intermediary, their passports and mobile phones will be confiscated, and then they will go to work in Netcast's office by car and become employees of Netcast.

By this time, even if many people find themselves cheated and ask to go back, they will be told to work for more than half a year or pay off the company's "compensation fee" before leaving.

After arriving at the office, the "net investment" company will assign jobs according to the skills of employees. If you have network technology, be a programmer and do some work such as maintaining gambling sites.

If employees have strong communication skills and many domestic channels, they will be assigned to the personnel department.

If you don't have technology and channels, then go to be a business person. Business people should learn how to play various roles, chat with people in China through social software, and then pull customers to gamble online.

The internal organizational structure of "net investment" is clear, and everyone has their own boss and clear work goals.

For example, the personnel department recruits 3-5 employees to work every month. In order to brainwash new employees, the management of these casinos publicizes various truths, such as "gamblers will lose all their money elsewhere if they don't come here to gamble".

Through this brainwashing process, the psychological burden of employees is reduced.

Small "net investment" generally works in small residential buildings, while large "net investment" is on the roof of large casinos or high-end hotels.

There are thousands of these "net investment" companies, and there are only a dozen people. These "net investment" companies have professional security guards at the door.

Inside the casino, employees have to work 12 hours or more, and are not allowed to go out at will after work. They can only move in the designated area. If they find signs of escape, they will be punched and kicked. Employees are not allowed to use their real names and there will be no communication. Everyone is crowded in a dark room, working on the computer, and there is no so-called seascape every day.

This working environment is like a prison. Many people will have psychological problems if they stay for a long time.

Through fraud and manipulation, many big casinos can make tens of millions or even nearly 100 million yuan a year. And many employees who are "familiar with business" (fraud and abetting gambling) can earn more than 10,000 yuan a month.

Stimulated by high income, many people gradually become victims and accomplices of casinos.

Supported by the gambling industry and "net investment" industry, Westport has gradually formed an industrial chain from real estate development to gambling industry. These industries will bring10 billion yuan of financial revenue to Cambodia every year, which is really a huge income for Cambodia.

However, a series of problems arising from gambling soon made Westport a famous crime capital. After China cracked down on telecom fraud and online gambling, many small casinos lost their financial resources, which made the local underworld turn to kidnapping and extortion.

In 20 19, there were more than 1000 criminal incidents in Westport, and people were injured or killed almost every day. Because the local gambling industry is mostly controlled by China people, there are often vicious incidents in which China people are killed locally, and those who commit these crimes are often China people.

It can be seen that although the West Port is in Cambodia, the capital is invested by China, the industry is controlled by China people, consumed by China people, and the industrial profits are also taken away by China people.

Therefore, Westport only provides a place, and the whole industry is still circulating among China people.

In order to cover up the crime, criminals bribed local customs and government personnel, which led to the deterioration of local social atmosphere.

With the soaring local land price and high crime rate, the economic development of Westport has been seriously affected, and social chaos has made local people very dissatisfied with China people.

On 20 19, several people from China made a video, shouting loudly that "Chongqing people have the final say whether the western ports are chaotic or not". These actions aroused the anti-China sentiment of the local people. For a time, anti-China remarks were rampant in Cambodia.

At the end of 20 19, the Cambodian government made up its mind to eliminate gambling and other related illegal industries, and made great efforts to catch criminals who committed atrocities in Westport.

After that, China and Cambodia worked together to arrest a large number of employees engaged in illegal gambling and arrested many members of the evil forces.

Under the attack of the law, after June 19 and 10, many "kennels" moved their "net investment" to the Philippines and other places for their own safety. After "Net Investment" left, many China people who worked in casinos gradually left Westport.

Today, the Westport, once known as the "China enclave", is no longer a scene where the streets are full of China people. With the departure of a large number of China people, Westport is no longer prosperous.

Now the West Port is on the right track, but the trauma caused by abnormal prosperity still exists. The Westport Rebellion once again proves that it is inevitable for a country to get rich quickly by gambling and other industries.

Because although the gambling industry has high profits and quick results, it has huge shortcomings and is difficult to control, which will breed a lot of social problems.

Therefore, if a country wants to develop, it must seriously develop basic industries such as industry and agriculture, and then develop characteristic industries according to its national conditions.
