Searching for Son for 22 Years: Successful DNA Verification of Father "Lei Gong": Has "missed" the child with his biological son multiple times within a year | Lei Wuze | Father

Release time:Apr 13, 2024 23:15 PM

"Come on, come on, eat baozi, eat reunion baozi!"

On the noon of June 24th, in the private room of Shenzhen Hu'ermei Fishing Ground, a transparent large box was filled with fist sized buns. Lei Wuze loudly called out while distributing the buns to the people gathered around him. Most people hold signs with children's faces and the words "search for children" in their hands - they are parents searching for missing children.

This is not the first time Lei Wuze has come to this fishing ground. This used to be a place for parents and the media to receive their son Sun Zhuo after the search for family, Sun Haiyang. The joys and sorrows of searching for a son are constantly unfolding here. But this time, Lei Wuze has changed from a "supporting role" to a "leading role".

In 2001, his 3-year-old son Lei Yuechuan went missing after being taken out to play by his neighbors in Yueyang, and Lei Wuze embarked on a long journey to find his son. On the afternoon of June 19, 22 years later, he received a message from the police officers of the Luohu Branch of the Shenzhen Public Security Bureau, stating that his son, Chuanchuan, was suspected to have been found through DNA comparison and was undergoing a review. On the evening of the 23rd, the police informed him that the review was successful.

The next day, Lei Wuze went to Shenzhen to prepare for communication on relevant procedures. After arriving that day, he met with a group of parents looking for relatives to celebrate and share the buns from Sun Haiyang's bun shop. He promised Sun Haiyang last year that if he found Chuanchuan, he would order 10000 buns from his bun shop to celebrate the reunion. "It took me a year to fulfill this promise for just one thing."

In addition to sighing, there is another voice surrounding Lei Wuze: he was once considered by many to be a "somewhat extreme" father who "turned the search for a son into a business", desperately "riding the traffic" at various search sites to voice his search story and plan endless search events to stimulate media attention. After retrieving his son, where will Lei Wuze's life go?

Over the past year, I have repeatedly brushed past Chuanchuan

It was not until the evening of June 23rd that Lei Wuze and his child's DNA were successfully double checked that Lei Wuze could confirm that the Shenzhen working boy on WeChat who had repeatedly blacklisted him throughout the year was his son Chuanchuan.

On June 25, 2022, a photo of a boy named Xiaowu, suspected of being from Sichuan, appeared for the first time in the data on searching for Sichuan through the comparison of Leiwuze's portraits.

That day was the birthday of Chuanchuan's mother. At 8 pm, as usual, Lei Wuze and the Yueyang police used portrait recognition technology to search for Chuanchuan among the many faces in the system, and finally screened out more than 800 objects with high similarity to Chuanchuan's childhood photos.

However, among so many faces, this boy named Xiaowu, who is suspected to resemble Chuanchuan, is not the one who bears the most resemblance to Chuanchuan when he was a child. "He had some hard features that matched, but the overall blurring and softening occurred," recalled Lei Wuze. Due to Xiao Wu's appearance being "not the most impressive kind," he did not become a priority for DNA comparison at that time.

After that, Lei Wuze investigated several subjects in Wuchuan, Leshan and other registered residence through facial similarity, but they were eventually excluded. Until February 26th of this year, Lei Wuze and experts adopted some more scientific techniques and finally screened out 100 objects using new data standards, and Xiaowu's photos returned to his sight. Some of the data in this child's appearance even ranks in the top 20 in terms of data similarity. In the survey of their registered residence, the system did not display their biological parents' data, and the children's household registration was attached to their grandparents' names. Lei Wuze realized that this was a suspicious point and requested the police to investigate further.

Lei Wuze and the police first attempted to contact "Chuanchuan" through online and telephone communication, which is a way to quickly investigate the family situation. After checking the WeChat account of "Chuanchuan", Lei Wuze sent a friend application.

After the application was approved, Lei Wuze explained his purpose: "Hello, I am a parent looking for a child... Data analysis shows that my son looks very similar to you, so I came to communicate with you." The response he received was a question mark: "?"

He wanted to send a message again to explain, but a red exclamation mark next to the bubble box told him that he had been deleted as a friend by the other party. He tried to add friends again, and after passing this time, another question mark was sent, followed by the sentence "If you harass me again, I will report it to the police", and then blacklisted again.

Two question marks, one warning, and one blacklisting made Lei Wuze aware of "Chuanchuan"'s resistance to communication. So he planned to advance through the cooperation of the public security organs. Since "Chuanchuan" registered residence is in Shantou and worked in Shenzhen at that time, Yueyang police need to issue an investigation order to Shenzhen police to conduct a series of operations such as blood collection.

However, in the end, Lei Wuze did not apply for further investigation with the police because a "interference clue" appeared. "We commissioned a volunteer to investigate in his village in his registered residence. Some villagers said that this baby was born out of wedlock by his eldest daughter, so they were relatively resistant to the previous WeChat inquiry." He said that this information misled them at that time. In addition, there were many suspected objects to study and judge, so they did not continue to cooperate in the investigation. This round of action came to an end.

During this period, Lei Wuze made many attempts again, but they all met with obstacles. When chatting with the parents looking for relatives, someone mentioned to him, "Before Miss Yang Suhui passed away, her son Xiao Jianfeng had actually been by her side and had even met her. Could Chuanchuan also be by your side?" At that time, Lei Wuze hesitated for a moment, but did not dwell on this "cruel possibility.".

In April this year, Lei Wuze was interviewed by Shangguan News reporters in Shenzhen. Photo by Yang Shuyuan

It wasn't until the end of May when Lei Wuze learned about the confession of the suspected kidnapper Wang Haowen that he once again paid attention to Xiao Wu. "Officer Zhu Yichan from the Jiangxi Provincial Public Security Department used some methods to identify Sichuan again." Zhu Yichan is the third level director of police technology at the Criminal Investigation Brigade of the Jiangxi Provincial Public Security Department. After his identification, the Jiangxi police contacted the Shenzhen police to start an investigation. First, they sent police officers to investigate the life and work of "Chuanchuan" from the outside, and then called "Chuanchuan" to ask him to go to the police station to cooperate with the police to investigate the registered residence registration, but they were refused twice.

Telephone contact was unsuccessful, and the public security organs chose to go directly to their homes to search for relatives and collect blood. The DNA acquisition was finally completed on June 13th, and preliminary comparison with the DNA of the Ray Wuze couple was successful on June 19th.

That day, Lei Wuze once again sent a message to "Chuanchuan" on WeChat, "I called a question mark, but he still didn't pass me."

This time, Lei Wuze dared not add Chuanchuan's WeChat without authorization anymore, and every step he took became very cautious. "I'm afraid he will dislike me, and my understanding of his growth experience over the years is still blank," said Lei Wuze.

Lei Wuze checked the WeChat profile of "Chuanchuan", and the Moments interface displayed personalized signatures, which included expressions such as "heaven and earth, distant travelers". Seeing these, he said, "Has he already realized something, so he feels like a long-distance traveler?"

Hidden human traffickers

After receiving the "successful comparison" message from the police, Lei Wuze remained particularly calm. He let out a long sigh and felt like "people have become much more relaxed.".

He called his wife who was out to tell her the news. Across the phone, Chuanchuan's mother couldn't believe it at first, thinking that Lei Wuze was lying to her. "But he kept emphasizing, yes, yes." She immediately ran home and saw the information from the police before finally realizing that her son had really found it. Lei Wuze felt like a few "thousand pound boulders" had been unloaded from her body.

And some "giant stones" have not yet been toppled, such as "how to promote the" same crime of buying and selling "of child trafficking and the revision of relevant judicial provisions". He hopes that relevant functional departments can continue to investigate cases involving Sichuan and uncover more clues to trafficking cases.

These days, he has been forwarding the information introduction of suspect Wang Haowen in the media group, imploring reporters to pay more attention to his criminal facts. Wang Haowen is a habitual child trafficking offender, of Hunan nationality, who participated in the "Southeast Hubei series of child trafficking cases" that occurred between 2002 and 2003. In 2014, he was arrested by the Sichuan police for trafficking three children and sentenced to 15 years in prison. Over the years, he has been involved in more than 20 child trafficking cases.

In fact, Wang Haowen only entered Lei Wuze's sight within the past month. Previously, for the scene of the child being abducted, the information he could obtain had always been "a female neighbor who was not very cautious in making friends took Chuanchuan out for shopping, and the child was taken away by a stranger who approached her." Lei Wuze has been focusing on how to learn more details about the human traffickers from the female neighbor.

On May 28th, a netizen attempted to provide clues for Lei Wuze's search for Sichuan, telling him that a Hunan human trafficker had abducted a boy named Rao Caipeng in Xianning, Hubei. After a series of communication, Lei Wuze contacted Rao Caipeng's parents and obtained a simulated portrait of a human trafficker's appearance provided by them. Through methods such as identifying facial features through photos and searching for criminal information online, both sides highly suspect that Rao Caipeng was abducted by human trafficker Wang Haowen. "He has abducted so many children, and he was also active in Yueyang during this period of 2002, so I suspect it was him who abducted Sichuan?" Lei Wuze speculated.

A new opportunity emerged, and Lei Wuze contacted the public security organs for investigation. On June 7th and 8th, the Yueyang police took Lei Wuze to the detention center in Nanchong City to interrogate Wang Haowen and analyze relevant file materials. Eventually, it was found that most of the children he abducted and sold went to Shantou, Guangdong. Lei Wuze was also able to find children suspected of being from Sichuan in the narrowed area. "We didn't know where Chuanchuan was sold before, so we could only compare portraits by searching for needles in a haystack. But with such location information, we can narrow down the scope and improve search accuracy," said Lei Wuze. "We have turned the 'ocean' into a 'small river'."

On June 8th, Lei Wuze once stood near the gate of the detention center in Nanchong City, holding a missing person notice with childhood photos of Chuanchuan in his hand. "Today, the police brothers are interrogating Wang Haowen. Will he truthfully explain where he turned Chuanchuan?" he asked publicly into the camera.

Lei Wuze revealed that during the interrogation, Wang Haowen only mentioned that the place of transportation for trafficking children was Shantou, but did not directly state that he abducted Chuanchuan and Rao Caipeng. "Their gang has several types of division of labor, including those responsible for abduction, those in temporary custody, and those looking for buyers, which is very complex. If you ask who they sold, he may not have an impression. Currently, the police are continuing to investigate, hoping to find out the huge child trafficking criminal network behind Wang Haowen.".

After discovering a suspected human trafficker who had abducted Sichuan, Lei Wuze decided to follow the clues and make sure to find the child.

After the dawn appeared

"For the current Lei Gong, bringing back his own child is the best way to end it," said Sun Haiyang, the leader of the "Searching for Children Alliance" who has been searching for children on the road for many years. After all, Chuanchuan, who has been away from home for 22 years, is 25 years old and has formed his own stable life circle and values.

Lei Wuze also admitted that he will face a huge economic burden in the future. Over the years, in order to create momentum for the search for Chuanchuan, he has invested tens of thousands or even tens of thousands of yuan in each search operation, and his family accounts are in a state of "unable to make ends meet".

Once, he continued to set up a stall at the train station for 7 months to stir fry melon seeds and peanuts, while subsidizing expenses and posting child search advertisements at the stall. Now, he yearns to follow many paths that parents have already taken to find their children, making live streaming sales a way for him to obtain funding.

These days, he frequently broadcasts on Tiktok to talk about his future plans, taking advantage of the opportunity that he is going to recognize his marriage with Chuanchuan in Shenzhen. Once, he confidently said, "If the live stream has 500000 likes, I will drop it." However, after reaching this number of likes, he asked netizens if he wanted to broadcast it again. After receiving encouragement, he finally couldn't bear to part with the momentum of the traffic and started a new round of "chattering".

In Lei Wuze's Tiktok "shop window", there are pea paste, mustard tuber, Zongzi, etc. for sale. "Live streaming for family search and sales is not a fierce beast." In his view, live streaming sales are the path to persist in family search public welfare. "If fans already have a need for products, choosing to place orders in the sales live streaming room of family search parents is also a form of support."

On the 24th, Lei Wuze went to Shenzhen and will meet with the police on the 25th to assist in the handling of the case. He may also meet with Chuanchuan. Before leaving, he prepared various meeting gifts for Chuanchuan. "This is the belt I bought as an 18 year old gift, and this is the birthday gift I bought as a 24 year old tiger in my zodiac year..." Lei Wuze introduced it one by one in front of the live broadcast camera. In addition to the annual birthday gift, he also bought Stinky tofu and other Hunan specialties, "I hope I can hand it to him."

At around 6 a.m. on the day of departure, Lei Wuze boarded the high-speed train heading towards Shenzhen, while his wife stayed at home to take care of her daughter who needed to go to school and prepare for her son's return home. The comments in the live broadcast room are full of doubts about these parents who are looking for relatives. As soon as Chuan Mama finished speaking, a barrage immediately wrote, "This mother is a bit indifferent."

"Just know he's good," Chuanchuan's mother still smiled shyly.

In Lei Wuze's Tiktok live broadcast on June 22, someone in the bullet screen area proposed that "maybe Chuanchuan is watching your live broadcast". He paused for a moment before facing the screen and saying, "Chuanchuan, if you are really in the live broadcast room, I want to tell you that I am a very positive and outgoing person. If you have any concerns, it is not a problem. As long as you are willing to come back and speak candidly with me, it is enough. If you can live happily and happily, it is enough." He told the reporter that how to make up for emotions and plan for his son's future life are all things that a father should consider, and also require "new thinking and practice.".

Lei Wuze is assisting live streaming for other parents seeking relatives.

Tell me about the disaster relief scene I saw, Zhuozhou Returning Water Flow | Rescue | Disaster Relief

Rainstorm hit Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei. The once-in-a-century natural disaster brings an unprecedented rescue challenge. For the north, floods are a relatively unfamiliar scene. In the face of disasters, professional self rescue awareness, rescue ability, and disaster relief order are particularly crucial. On the early morning of August 5th, we contacted the Zique rescue team who had just evacuated from the flood scene in Zhuozhou and was still on their way back. This civilian rescue force from Shanghai participated in many core tasks during the flood. Recalling the cities and villages soaked in water waiting for rescue, they had a lot of experience and observation from the disaster relief site. The following is the story of Hong Yunyin, a member of the Zique Rescue Team. Narrator: Hong Yunyin, 37 years old, one of the founders of the Zique Rescue Team. Terrain, water flow, and debris test rescue professional skills. We have been closely related since late July

What tricks can Shanghai play?, The garbage at the end is only for visiting a "garbage factory", they travel thousands of miles to utilize the garbage at the end

Some people say that the real driving force of garbage classification is at the end. As long as the efficiency of garbage resource utilization is high enough, the change of the beginning will happen naturally. However, "benefits" are difficult to calculate. As a public product, the end disposal of garbage is not only quite complicated, but also relatively limited in return. So, under the goal of "no waste city", how should waste end disposal enterprises balance public welfare and development? What are their new explorations in conversion efficiency? The reporter visited Songjiang Tianma Waste-free Low-carbon Environmental Protection Industrial Park and Shanghai Laogang Ecological Environmental Protection Base, trying to reveal the effectiveness and difficulties of waste end disposal, and found the potential and motivation of "circular economy" normalization. Face the shock of garbage "everyone who comes here will feel the shock." In Songjiang Tianma, there is no waste, low carbon and environmentally friendly production.

What kind of morning tea lifestyle do you prefer? There are more and more good places for Mo Du to drink morning tea! Cantonese and Soviet style Shanghai | Morning Tea | Soviet style

In my impression, the traditional breakfast of Shanghai people is inseparable from the "Four Great Kings". With the development of the integration of the Yangtze River Delta, in the past one or two years, more and more Yangzhou and Taizhou morning tea shops have opened in Shanghai. Many local "time-honored brands" in Shanghai have reopened or adhered to the morning tea period of 7 or 8 o'clock, and the existing brand Cantonese restaurants have provided the population in Shanghai with a richer morning tea experience. As a traditional social and dietary custom in China, morning tea is related to the dietary habits of a place and also reflects the historical development and cultural identity of a city. The reporter recently visited morning tea shops with different flavors in Shanghai to observe and experience the morning tea lifestyle in Shanghai. Cantonese people tend to refer to eating morning tea as "sighing tea", where "sighing" means enjoying it. What is the flavor of "sighing" when drinking morning tea in Shanghai? Having a bite to eat but lacking leisure time

You cannot wear these two colors of swimsuits while swimming! What are the colors of outdoor sports clothing that require fabric | UV | Outdoor sports

Summer has arrived, and swimming is a great sport. The choice of swimsuit not only requires comfort, but also safety. In many sports scenes, clothing color can serve as a protective and warning function. How to choose colors for sportswear such as swimsuits? A professional organization conducted an experiment to study the impact of swimsuit color on children's safety. The experiment observed the visibility of different colored swimsuits on calm and wavy water surfaces in indoor swimming pools and outdoor lakes, and concluded that the fluorescent color scheme with strong contrast is the best swimsuit color in both indoor swimming pools and lake water. Fluorescent colors such as fluorescent orange, fluorescent green, fluorescent powder, and fluorescent red are more vibrant. Fluorescent swimsuits can improve children's visibility in water and help parents or safety personnel take care of children in water. White, light blue, and black are not recommended
