The Chinese film “Chou Chu Kills Three Evils” became a hit in China, with a cross-strait box office total of nearly NT$3 billion. The story describes Chen Guilin, the third most wanted gunman, who was arrested by the police after killing the top two, and was eventually shot. The folk tale of Zhou Chu eliminates three evils. According to the investigation of this magazine, Chen Guilin’s prototype is Liu Huanrong, a killer of the Bamboo Union Gang. He shot several gangsters in Taiwan and then fled overseas.

Liu Huanrong was born in a military dependent village in Taichung in 1957. His father was a soldier and his mother set up a fruit stall. There were often gangsters who would cause trouble and frequently smashed the stall. Liu felt very unfair and joined the “Little Plum Blossom Gang” and “Beijing Gang” composed of children from the military dependent village. Gangs such as the “Tuen Circle Gang” were later sent to a juvenile detention center. After leaving the Shaoguan Institute, he wanted to join the army like his father, so he applied for the military academy, but was rejected because of his criminal record.

Liu Huanrong was full of resentment and helplessness, so he turned back to his former gang friends, and began to recruit younger brothers and run casinos. At that time, the Bamboo Union Gang was expanding its power to Taichung. Liu Huanrong was attracted by Dong Guisen, the leader of the Zhongtang Hall, who was also born in Taichung Military Village, and was absorbed into the Bamboo Union Gang.

Not long after, Liu Huanrong took over his first task – to kill the Dahu Gang boss Liao Longhui. He ambushed on Sanmin Road in Taichung City and shot Liao to death.

On January 26, 1986, Liu Huanrong was arrested by the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department for being involved in a drug trafficking case. In March of the same year, he was extradited to Taiwan for trial.

Liu Huanrong completely changed in prison, began to learn painting, and donated 39 paintings to the Women’s Rescue Foundation for charity. Despite this, Liu Huanrong was eventually sentenced to death.

Liu.

However, on March 22, 1993, Ma Ying-jeou, the then Ministry of Justice, approved Liu Huanrong’s execution order and executed him by firing squad at the Taipei Detention Center in the early morning of the next day.
