On May 20, 1986, the Huaxing Pharmaceutical Factory, designed and installed by the people of Liuzhuang, was officially put into operation. Since then, the economy of Liuzhuang has grown rapidly and quickly become the "richest village in the Central Plains".

According to reports, there have been no criminal cases or violations of discipline by party members in Liuzhuang for decades. From family planning, weddings, funerals, and caring for the elderly and young, the cadres and masses in Liuzhuang consciously abide by socialist moral norms. There are 14 surnames, over 300 households, and more than 1600 people in the village. There are no clan conflicts or factional disputes, and there are no negative phenomena such as feudal superstition, gambling, fighting, or large-scale weddings and funerals.

In the spring of 2004, Shi Laihe passed away peacefully. The standard reporting term for domestic media is: 'Role model for Communist Party members.'.

The existence of Liu Zhuang and Shi Laihe proves that in some rural areas of China, if there is a selfless and authoritarian leader, he possesses two abilities at the same time: one is extremely good at utilizing some advantages and concepts to create a relaxed and supportive governance atmosphere for himself; Secondly, he has considerable market sensitivity and is often able to start one or even several very profitable factories.

This strongman rules or manages his village with an authoritarian style based on personal charisma.
