Yuan Hongwei is a most wanted Chinese smuggler, but he does not have a playing card in our poker deck.

Here is an excerpt from a Time magazine article:

ABRO Industries learned early on that it was facing an audacious challenger. In 2003 Timothy Demarais, vice president of the South Bend, Indiana-based industrial adhesive manufacturer, says he walked into the Canton Trade Fair in Guangzhou, China, and found that his company’s product line — and his company’s identity itself — had been knocked off by a Chinese firm called Hunan Magic Power, also known as Magpow. When Demarais attempted to have the impostor kicked out, he says, Hunan Magic Power chairman Yuan Hongwei produced documentation that he claimed showed his company had the right to use the trademark ABRO. He had even copied ABRO’s labeling, including one sample card with a photo of a woman applying epoxy to a bicycle. The woman, it turned out, was Demarais’ wife. After Demarais pulled out another photo of his wife from his wallet, the trade fair officials booted Hunan Magic Power. “How blatant can you be when you steal my wife’s picture for your card?” asks Demarais.
