At 15:35 on October 8, 1992, a charter flight of Wuhan Airlines crashed in Huajia Village, Bailu Township, Dingxi County, Gansu Province. The www.biquge.info tourist charter flight took off from Lanzhou Zhongchuan Airport at 14:18 on the same day and flew to Huxian County, Shaanxi Province. There were 28 passengers on board, including 11 Taiwanese guests, 14 Western European passengers, and 3 mainland passengers. There are also crew members of 7 people. After the accident, 13 people died and 4 were seriously injured on the spot. The crash is ominous!

The crash was inconceivable because of its many suspicious features, until ten years later, when one of the parties finally stood up and told the truth......

In the 90s, the theft of cultural relics was rampant, and in the context of reform and opening up, people were mercenary, not satisfied with their work, and wanted to take advantage of every opportunity to make a windfall.

The year '92 was a very special year, and the end of the year in which the "'92 Consensus" was formally established. The mainland and Taiwan have ice-breaking trips. As a matter of fact, before the "consensus of '92" was reached, nongovernmental exchanges between Taiwan and the mainland began to become frequent, and one of them seemed to be disgraceful: the exchange of cultural relics.

92 years ago, mainland residents were not particularly good at the concept of antique cultural relics, and they knew that some things left by their ancestors would be more valuable, but how to realize this? is a problem, 78 years of reform and opening up, many people have become self-employed to make money, but in the nineties, it is a bit difficult to do business, why? Have capital. In the past, it was a "white wolf with empty gloves", there was a market here, there was goods there, and then the difference was made, there was no problem of needing to invest capital, this money was easy to come by, commonly known as "the master". In the nineties, the communication industry began to develop, the problem of information asymmetry was gradually improved, and some brand manufacturers began to need "agency fees", so if you want to do business, you must have founding funds. In those days, it seemed a bit unrealistic to rely on your parents to do business, and your parents came from the era of poverty and whiteness, how could you have extra funds to do business and start a business? So I had the idea of becoming a valuable seller. What is the most valuable thing in the house? It is nothing more than the so-called antique cultural relics left by the ancestors. Porcelain, calligraphy and painting, these things also occupy space at home, if you really want to start a business and exchange these for money, most of your family will not object. So who buys these things? Taiwanese willing!

After all, Taiwanese are also Chinese, and they are quite interested in Chinese cultural relics, and the emerging cultural relics market in the mainland market can buy some excellent cultural relics and antiques at very low prices, and the buyer and seller markets are so hit. Therefore, once the ice is broken between Taiwan and the mainland, the first to enter the mainland are those cultural relics dealers in Taiwan. The customs were not strict in those days, the author remembers that when I was a child, there was an overseas relative, back to the mainland to visit relatives, after the visit, the family prepared a pair of calligraphy and paintings in the late Ming Dynasty, whose work, I don't know, anyway, it was rolled up, and the overseas relatives "blatantly" took the rolled up words and passed the security check at the airport. Later, when the author grew up, I asked the overseas relative, is the calligraphy and painting that gave you at that time still there? The relative shook his head and said, "It's gone, it's sold as soon as I return to Hong Kong." "At that time, in the 90s, the calligraphy and painting were sold for 2,000 Hong Kong dollars, according to the exchange rate at that time, more than 2,200 yuan, and a family's income for more than half a year. If you want to change to the present, this calligraphy and painting will have to be priced at a five-figure price. At that time, if there were young people in the family who wanted to start a business, they would definitely find Taiwanese first, and only they would buy the antiques in your home at a "high price". Make up for the gap in funding for your own start-up.

The crash of a charter plane of Wuhan Airlines on October 8, 1992, occurred against this background.

This incident is a major accident, and there are foreigners who died in it, so, according to common sense, there should be a general news report, but the author consulted all the newspapers and periodicals at that time, and only saw such a news report of less than 100 words in the "People's Daily", originally this matter passed because of the "blockade" of the news, but the author found that the incident was reported in the "People's Daily" in a Baidu search, and through this less than 100 words of introduction, the word "charter flight" made the author "dumbfounded". 92 charter? International jokes? First of all, it is impossible for foreigners to charter flights in the mainland, which is subject to laws and regulations. That is, the three mainlanders paid for the charter flight, the foreigners secretly gave their own money, and it was not impossible for the mainlanders to make a bread machine, but when the author checked the information, there was only one Western European's information, male, West German, 38 years old, name: Mbosev (pseudonym), as for the information of the other 13 Western Europeans, there was no information. This made the author feel very incredible, so I hurriedly checked the relevant notes and notices of Western European countries on China in that era, there were 14 Western Europeans who had an accident in China, and there will always be some movement abroad, right? But I read all the notes from that time, but no. It was only at the end of '92 that the Consulate General of West Germany in China gave the Department of European Affairs Liaison of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the People's Republic of China (editor's note: it is actually the "European Department", which may be a mistake by the author, or it is possible that the name of the organizational structure of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs at that time was the Department of Liaison Affairs. I sent a notice of "Christmas Holiday Arrangement", which is probably the holiday arrangement of our consulate in China for Christmas in 92, who is on duty, when will the holiday start, and when will work normally, to put it bluntly, it is a bit like the holiday schedule in the unit. But at the beginning of the sentence: Thank you for your humane care for your citizen in the 1008 incident, who returned home safely on 10 December.

Interpreting this sentence, readers must be like the author, and some feel strange: 1008 incident, what kind of incident is this? The dialogue between the two countries is called an "incident", and it is conceivable that a consensus has been reached between the two countries. Of course, there are some consensuses that are secret, not declared to the outside world, and are secrets between countries, but here, when used in "informing", to a certain extent, this is not a so-called "secret" consensus, at least not on the West German side. Ten years later, in 2002, Professor Ai Shijiao learned of the Chinese survivor of the 1008 incident: Hu Mingshan (Editor's note: In order to prevent the number from being seated, the name used here is a pseudonym. ）
