consists of all of the property of the debtor, wherever that property is located. Because the bankruptcy estate is so extensive and the jurisdiction of the court so broad, there may be lawsuits over the property or property rights of the estate. There also may be lawsuits concerning the debtor's discharge. If such a lawsuit is filed in a bankruptcy court, it is called an adversary proceeding.\n\nA party filing an adversary proceeding must also must complete and file Form 1040, the Adversary Proceeding Cover Sheet, unless the party files the adversary proceeding electronically through the court's Case Management/Electronic Case Filing system (CM/ECF). (CM/ECF captures the information on Form 1040 as part of the filing process.) When completed, the cover sheet summarizes basic information on the adversary proceeding. The clerk of court needs the information to process the adversary proceeding and prepare required statistical reports on court activity.\n\nThe cover sheet and the information contained on it do not replace or supplement the filing and service of pleadings or other papers as required by law, the Bankruptcy Rules, or the local rules of court. The cover sheet, which is largely selfexplanatory, must be completed by the plaintiff's attorney (or by the plaintiff if the plaintiff is not represented by an attorney). A separate cover sheet must be submitted to the clerk for each complaint filed.\n\n**Plaintiffs** and **Defendants.** Give the names of the plaintiffs and defendants exactly as they appear on the complaint.\n\n**Attorneys.** Give the names and addresses of the attorneys, if known.\n\n**Party**. Check the most appropriate box in the first column for the plaintiffs and the second column for the defendants.\n\n**Demand.** Enter the dollar amount being demanded in the complaint.\n\n**Signature.** This cover sheet must be signed by the attorney of record in the box on the second page of the form. If the plaintiff is represented by a law firm, a member of the firm must sign. If the plaintiff is pro se, that is, not represented by an attorney, the plaintiff must sign.\n\n# **UNITED STATES BANKRUPTCY COURT DISTRICT OF CONNECTICUT BRIDGEPORT DIVISION**\n\n| -----------------------------------------------------------                                                                           |            | x                                                                                                    |\n|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|\n| In re:                                                                                                                                |            | :<br>:<br>Chapter 11                                                                                 |\n| 1<br>HO WAN KWOK,<br>et al.,                                                                                                          |            | :<br>:<br>Case No. 22-50073 (JAM)                                                                    |\n|                                                                                                                                       | Debtors.   | :<br>:<br>(Jointly Administered)<br>:                                                                |\n| -----------------------------------------------------------<br>LUC A.

The Trustee commences this adversary proceeding to avoid and recover transfers of the Debtor's property prior to the commencement of this Chapter 11 Case.\n\n2. The Debtor, through his alter-ego shell companies, G Fashion (\"G Fashion\") and G Fashion Media Group (\"G Fashion Media\"), transferred funds in the amount of \\$165,603.23 prior to the Petition Date (as defined herein) to the Defendant as the initial transferee.\n\n3. These transfers were actually fraudulent, because the Debtor effectuated them as part of his \"shell game,\" and they were made with the intent to hinder, delay, and/or defraud the Debtor's creditors.\n\n## **JURISDICTION AND VENUE**\n\n4. This Court has subject matter jurisdiction over this adversary proceeding pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1334(b).\n\n5. This adversary proceeding has been referred to this Court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 157(a).\n\n6. The statutory predicates for the relief sought herein include sections 544, 548 and 550 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the \"Bankruptcy Code\") and New York Debtor & Creditor Law sections 273, 274, and 276 [2](#page-3-0) or any other applicable state law equivalents.\n\n# **THE PARTIES**\n\n<span id=\"page-3-0\"></span><sup>2</sup> All statutory references to New York Debtor and Creditor Law will hereinafter be referred to as \"N.Y. Debt. & Cred. Law\". The New York Uniform Voidable Transactions Act (\"NYUVT\") replaced the New York Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act (\"NYUFC\") and became effective on April 4, 2020 and applies to transfers made or obligations incurred on or after April 4, 2020. With respect to transfers prior to April 4, 2020, the Trustee seeks relief in this action under the NYUFC and N.Y. Debt. & Cred. Law sections 273, 273a, 275, 276 and 278.\n\n7. The Trustee is the chapter 11 trustee in the Chapter 11 Case pursuant to the Bankruptcy Court's order entered on July 8, 2022 [Case No. 22-50073 (the \"Main Case\") Docket No. 523].\n\n8. The Defendant is a California limited liability company with offices located at 209 E. 32nd Street, Los Angeles, California 90011.\n\n## **FACTS**\n\n### **A. Chapter 11 Case**\n\n9. The Debtor filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the \"Bankruptcy Code\") on February 15, 2022 (the \"Petition Date\") in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Connecticut (the \"Bankruptcy Court\"), thus commencing the above-captioned chapter 11 case (the \"Chapter 11 Case\").\n\n10. On March 21, 2022, the Office of the United States Trustee appointed an Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors in this Chapter 11 Case. No examiner has been appointed.\n\n11. The Debtor's bankruptcy schedules, filed in March 2022 with the Bankruptcy Court, claimed that he owned \\$3,850 in assets and had incurred hundreds of millions of dollars of liabilities[.](#page-4-0)<sup>3</sup> While the Debtor was, indeed, deeply indebted, his schedules failed to disclose the Debtor's property as held and/or transferred through his many alter-ego shell companies, including G Fashion and G Fashion Media.\n\n12. On June 15, 2022, the Bankruptcy Court entered a memorandum of decision and order [Main Case Docket No. 465] directing the United States Trustee to appoint a chapter 11 trustee in the Chapter 11 Case. Pursuant to this order, the United States Trustee selected Luc A. Despins as the Trustee. On July 8, 2022, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order granting the\n\n<span id=\"page-4-0\"></span><sup>3</sup> Schedule of Assets and Liabilities, at 1 [Main Case Docket No. 78].\n\nappointment of Luc A. Despins as the Trustee in the Chapter 11 Case [Main Case Docket No. 523].\n\n## **B. Debtor's Use of Shell Companies and Trustee's Adversary Proceedings**\n\n13. G Fashion and G Fashion Media are some of the numerous alter-ego shell companies used by the Debtor to hinder, delay, and/or defraud his creditors[.](#page-5-0)<sup>4</sup> For years, the Debtor has orchestrated a \"shell game,\" employing a convoluted web of shell companies, nominally owned by family members, lieutenants, and/or subordinates, but in reality, controlled by the Debtor. This shell game enabled the Debtor to use and spend and/or transfer millions of dollars of cash and other assets.\n\n14. Since his appointment, the Trustee has commenced a number of adversary proceedings in the Chapter 11 Case to, among other things, establish that the Debtor's shell companies were his alter-egos and/or that such companies and their assets were equitably owned by the Debtor and in several the Bankruptcy Court has already granted such relief.[5](#page-5-1)\n\n15. The fact patterns in these litigations consistently involve: (i) Debtor-controlled shell companies held by close family members and/or subordinates, (ii) assets purchased with cash from other Debtor-controlled entities and/or transferred to and among shell entities for no consideration, and (iii) the Debtor benefiting from and having control and dominion over such assets.\n\n<span id=\"page-5-0\"></span><sup>4</sup> The Trustee has or will imminently commence an adversary proceeding against G Fashion and G Fashion Media, which adversary proceeding seeks, among other things, a declaratory judgment that G Fashion and G Fashion Media were the alter egos of the Debtor. The Trustee incorporates by reference herein, the Trustee's Complaint filed in such adversary proceeding.\n\n<span id=\"page-5-1\"></span><sup>5</sup> These include the following adversary proceedings: (i) *Luc A. Despins, Chapter 11 Trustee v. HK International Funds Investments (USA) Limited, LLC, et al.* [Adv. Proc. No. 22-05003]; (ii) *Luc A. Despins, Chapter 11 Trustee v. Greenwich Land LLC, et al.* [Adv. Proc. No. 23-05005]; (iii) *Luc A. Despins, Chapter 11 Trustee v. Mei Guo* [Adv. Proc. No. 23-05008]; (iv) *Luc A. Despins, Chapter 11 Trustee v. HCHK Technologies, Inc., et al.* [Adv. Proc. No. 23-05013]; (v) *Luc A. Despins, Chapter 11 Trustee v. Taurus Fund LLC, et al.* [Adv. Proc. No. 23- 05017]; (vi) *Luc A. Despins, Chapter 11 Trustee v. Golden Spring (New York) Limited* [Adv. Proc. 23-05018]; and (vii) *Luc A. Despins, Chapter 11 Trustee v. Lamp Capital LLC, et al.* [Adv. Proc. 23-05023].\n\n## **C. Debtor's Conduct to Hinder, Delay, and/or Defraud Creditors**\n\n16. In addition to the matters addressed in the Trustee's adversary proceedings, the Bankruptcy Court has found that the Debtor was the beneficial owner of Ace Decade Limited (and through it, Dawn State Limited) and that the Debtor controlled and employed Ace Decade Limited's nominee shareholder, Yvette Wang.[6](#page-6-0)\n\n17. The Bankruptcy Court has also found that the \"G Entities\" (Gettr, G Fashion, G Music, GClubs, GNews and GEdu), the New Federal State of China and the Rule of Law Foundation, as well as other purportedly independent entities and organizations, were controlled by the Debtor,[7](#page-6-1) led by the Debtor[8](#page-6-2) and/or served \"the purposes of… and as business vehicles of\" the Debtor.[9](#page-6-3)\n\n18. Prior to the Petition Date, Judge Liman of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York found that Eastern Profit Corporation Limited, an entity originally owned by one of the Debtor's chefs before its transfer to Debtor's daughter, was \"in essence, a shell corporation\" for the Debtor.[10](#page-6-4)\n\n19. The Debtor has gone to great lengths to hinder and delay the collection efforts of one of his largest creditors, *i.e.*, Pacific Alliance Asia Opportunity Fund, L.P. (\"PAX\"). In 2017, PAX sued the Debtor in the Supreme Court of the State of New York (the \"New York Court\"),\n\n<span id=\"page-6-0\"></span><sup>6</sup> *Order Granting Motion to Hold Debtor in Contempt of Corporate Governance Order,* ¶¶ 1, 4 (Jan. 24, 2023, Docket No. 1372 (\"Corp.

Ltd. v. Strategic Vision US LLC*, No. 18-CV-2185 (LJL) 2021 WL 2554631, at \\*1 (S.D.N.Y. June 22, 2021).\n\nIndex No. 652077/2017 (the \"PAX Case\"), seeking judgment for monies owed. On February 3, 2021, PAX obtained a judgment from the New York Court against the Debtor in the sum of \\$116,402,019.57 (the \"PAX Judgment\"). PAX sought to enforce the PAX Judgment by levying the Debtor's assets—including the Lady May, which the Debtor falsely claimed was owned by his daughter, and the Debtor's luxury apartment in Manhattan, which the Debtor falsely claimed was held in trust for the Debtor's son. The Debtor's defiance of New York Court orders in postjudgment proceedings eventually resulted in the Debtor incurring contempt penalties of \\$134 million.\n\n20. The Debtor also used his alter egos, including G Fashion and G Fashion Media, as personal piggy-banks, funding the lavish lifestyle to which he and his family had become accustomed, while concealing assets in these alter egos from his creditors and hindering and delaying creditors from recoveries on their claims. The transfers that the Debtor effectuated through these alter egos perpetuated the Debtor's fraudulent scheme.\n\n21. The Debtor has testified before the Bankruptcy Court that he has insufficient assets to pay his liabilities and that his luxurious lifestyle is funded by his family through businesses nominally held by family members.[11](#page-7-0) The Debtor scheduled only \\$3,850 in assets.[12](#page-7-1)\n\n22. In March 2023, the Debtor was arrested and remains confined pending his trial on federal criminal charges of, among other things, wire fraud, securities fraud, and money laundering.\n\n<span id=\"page-7-0\"></span><sup>11</sup> Hearing on Debtor's Motion for Entry of Interim and Final DIP Orders (I) Authorizing the Debtor to Obtain Unsecured, Subordinated Postpetition Financing and (II) Scheduling Interim and Final Hearings, and (III) Granting Related Relief (Main Case, April 27, 2022)\n\n<span id=\"page-7-1\"></span><sup>12</sup> *See* n.3\n\n23. In its criminal indictment of the Debtor, the United States Government asserts that the Debtor and his co-defendants \"utilized more than approximately 500 accounts held in the names of *at least 80 different entities or individuals* to launder more than \\$1 billion in fraud proceeds.\"[13](#page-8-0)\n\n24. The property of the Debtor's alter egos, including G Fashion and G Fashion Media, was at all times prior to the Petition Date property of the Debtor.\n\n25. At all times relevant herein, the Debtor conducted business in New York, New York, including direction of the Transfers (as defined herein).\n\n#### **D. Transfers Made with Intent to Hinder, Delay, or Defraud Creditors**\n\n26. The Transfers at issue in this Complaint were made with the intent to hinder, delay, and/or defraud the Debtor's creditors inasmuch as they were all made through the Debtor's alterego shell companies operated as a part of the Debtor's shell game.\n\n27. The Debtor intentionally orchestrated his financial affairs in this manner in order to conceal and dissipate millions of dollars in assets while falsely pleading poverty to his many creditors. The Debtor claimed to be destitute while simultaneously spending heavily to maintain a billionaire lifestyle for himself and for his family members and close associates.\n\n28. The assets concealed and dissipated by the Debtor included funds that he obtained from the victims of his cryptocurrency, securities, and other fraud schemes. As a result of this conduct, the Debtor faces multiple felony fraud, money laundering, and racketeering charges in a\n\n<span id=\"page-8-0\"></span><sup>13</sup> *See* Memorandum of Law of the United States of America in Opposition to Defendant Yanping Wang's Motion for Pretrial Release at 29, attached as Exhibit B in the Reply of Chapter 11 Trustee to G Club Operations LLC's Supplemental Objection to Trustee's Motion to Compel and Request for Related Relief (June 23, 2023, Main Case Docket No. 1934).\n\ncriminal case pending in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. *See United States v. Ho Wan Kwok*, case no. 1:23-cr-00118-AT [ECF No. 215] (Jan. 3, 2024 S.D.N.Y.).\n\n29. The Debtor knew and intended that by concealing and dissipating his assets in this manner there would not be sufficient assets remaining to repay his creditors—including the many victims of his frauds. These transfers were thus necessarily made with the intent to hinder, delay, and/or defraud the Debtor's creditors.\n\n30. Even while the Debtor claimed to be penniless to his creditors, he simultaneously used his luxurious lifestyle as a marketing tool to promote his fraudulent schemes. Among the many examples of this strategy was the Debtor's \"Hcoin to the Moon\" music video, in which the Debtor flaunts extravagant personal property—including yachts, sports cars, suits, cigars, and home furnishings—to promote investment in one of his fraudulent cryptocurrency ventures.[14](#page-9-0)\n\n31. This further reflects the Debtor's fraudulent intent with respect to the Transfers.\n\n# **E. Transfers to the Defendant**\n\n32. Prior to the Petition Date, the Debtor, using his alter ego shell companies including G Fashion and G Fashion Media, or otherwise, transferred the Debtor's property to the Defendant (collectively, the \"Transfers\"), including, without limitation, as follows:\n\nSee **SCHEDULE A** attached hereto and made a part hereof.\n\n33. At the time of the Transfers, the Debtor had outstanding obligations to creditors of the Debtor's estate.\n\n34. The Defendant was the initial transferee of the Transfers.\n\n# **FIRST CLAIM**\n\n# **(Claim to Avoid and Recover Actual Fraudulent Transfers Pursuant to Bankruptcy Code sections 548(a)(1)(A) and 550(a))**\n\n<span id=\"page-9-0\"></span><sup>14</sup> *See* <http> (last visited Jan. 25, 2024). The Debtor published this music video on YouTube in December of 2021, roughly two months prior to the Petition Date.\n\n35. The Trustee repeats and realleges the allegations contained in paragraphs 1-34 as if fully set forth herein.\n\n36. The Transfers were made by the Debtor through his alter egos, G Fashion and G Fashion Media, with the actual intent to hinder, delay and/or defraud his creditors.\n\n37. The Debtor's intent to hinder, delay, and/or defraud his creditors in perpetrating the Transfers is shown by, among other things:\n\na. The Transfers were effectuated using alter-ego shell companies;\n\nb. The Transfers were concealed from the Debtor's creditors;\n\nc. The Transfers were effectuated as part of the Debtor's \"shell game\" with the aid of the Debtor's family members and other lieutenants and subordinates that he controlled in an effort to conceal and shield assets;\n\nd. The Transfers furthered the Debtor's fraudulent conduct by enabling the Debtor to benefit from his fraud without subjecting his property to the reach of his creditors;\n\ne. The Transfers furthered the Debtor's fraudulent conduct by enabling the Debtor to profit from his fraud without subjecting his property to the reach of his creditors;\n\nf. At the time of the Transfers, the Debtor was being sued, including by PAX in the PAX Case; and\n\ng. At the time of the Transfers, the Debtor was insolvent or undercapitalized.\n\n38. The Transfers are avoidable by the Trustee pursuant to section 548(a)(i)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code and are recoverable pursuant to section 550(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.\n\n### **SECOND CLAIM**\n\n# **(Claim to Avoid and Recover Actual Fraudulent Transfers pursuant to N.Y. Debt. & Cred. Law sections 273, 274, and 276, and Bankruptcy Code sections 544(b) and 550(a))**\n\n39. The Trustee repeats and realleges the allegations contained in paragraphs 1-34 as if fully set forth herein.\n\n40. The Transfers were made by the Debtor, through his alter ego companies, G Fashion and G Fashion Media, with the actual intent to hinder, delay and/or defraud his creditors.\n\n41. The Debtor's intent to hinder, delay, and/or defraud his creditors in perpetrating the\n\nTransfers is shown by, among other things:\n\n- a. The Transfers were effectuated using alter-ego shell companies;\n- b. The Transfers were concealed from the Debtor's creditors;\n- c. The Transfers were effectuated as part of the Debtor's \"shell game\" with the aid of the Debtor's family members and other lieutenants and subordinates that he controlled in an effort to conceal and shield assets;\n- d. The Transfers furthered the Debtor's fraudulent conduct by enabling the Debtor to benefit from his fraud without subjecting his property to the reach of his creditors;\n- e. The Transfers furthered the Debtor's fraudulent conduct by enabling the Debtor to profit from his fraud without subjecting his property to the reach of his creditors;\n\nf. At the time of the Transfers, the Debtor was being sued, including by PAX in the PAX Case; and\n\ng. At the time of the Transfers, the Debtor was insolvent or undercapitalized.\n\n42. The Transfers are avoidable by the Trustee pursuant to N.Y. Debt. & Cred. Law sections 273(a)(1), 274, and 276, and section 544(b) of the Bankruptcy Code and recoverable pursuant to section 550(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.\n\n*[THE REMAINDER OF THIS PAGE IS INTENTIONALLY BLANK.]*\n\n#### **PRAYER FOR RELIEF**\n\nWHEREFORE, for the foregoing reasons, the Trustee respectfully requests that judgment be entered as follows:\n\n1. On the First Claim, (a) an order declaring that the Transfers in an amount not less than \\$165,603.23 are avoided pursuant to section 548(a)(1)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code; (b) an order directing that the Transfers be set aside; and (c) recovery of the Transfers, or the value thereof at the Trustee's option, from the Defendant for the benefit of the Debtor's estate pursuant to section 550(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code;\n\n2. On the Second Claim, (a) an order declaring that the Transfers in an amount not less than \\$165,603.23 are avoided pursuant to section 544(b) of the Bankruptcy Code and N.Y. Debt. & Cred.

Despins，以其作为在Ho Wan Kwok（“债务人”或“Kwok”）第11章案件（“第11章案件”）中获任命的第11章受托人（“受托人”）的身份，提交本\n\n1 本第11章案件中的债务人为Ho Wan Kwok（亦称Guo Wengui、Miles Guo和Miles Kwok，以及其他众多别名）（税务识别号码后四位：9595）、Genever Holdings LLC（Genever控股有限责任公司）（税务识别号码后四位：8202）以及Genever Holdings Corporation（Genever控股公司）。受托人、Genever Holdings LLC和Genever Holdings Corporation的邮寄地址为Paul Hastings LLP（保罗·黑斯廷斯律师事务所），200 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10166，收件人：Luc A. Despins，作为Ho Wan Kwok财产集合的受托人（仅为通知和通信之目的）。\n\n对抗诉状（“诉状”），起诉被告Dream Projects LLC（“被告”），陈述如下：\n\n诉讼性质\n\n1. 受托人提起本对抗诉讼程序，以撤销并追回本第11章案件开始前对债务人财产作出的转让。\n\n2. 债务人通过其替身空壳公司G Fashion（“G时尚”）和G Fashion Media Group（“G时尚媒体集团”），在申请日（定义见下文）之前向作为初始受让人的被告转让了金额为\\$165,603.23的资金。\n\n3. 该等转让实际构成欺诈，因为债务人作为其“空壳把戏”的一部分实施了该等转让，并且其作出该等转让的意图是阻碍、拖延和/或欺诈债务人的债权人。\n\n管辖权和审判地\n\n4. 本法院依据28 U.S.C. § 1334(b)对本对抗诉讼程序具有事项管辖权。\n\n5. 本对抗诉讼程序已依据28 U.S.C. § 157(a)移交本法院审理。\n\n6. 本文所请求救济的法定依据包括《美国法典》第11编（“破产法典”）第544、548和550条，以及《纽约州债务人及债权人法》第273、274和276条[2]或任何其他适用的州法对应规定。\n\n当事人\n\n2 以下对《纽约州债务人及债权人法》的所有法条引用均称为“N.Y. Debt. & Cred. Law”。《纽约州统一可撤销交易法》（“NYUVT”）取代了《纽约州统一欺诈性转让法》（“NYUFC”），并于2020年4月4日生效，适用于在2020年4月4日当日或之后作出的转让或承担的义务。对于2020年4月4日之前的转让，受托人在本诉讼中依据NYUFC及N.Y. Debt. & Cred. Law第273、273a、275、276和278条寻求救济。\n\n7. 受托人系依据破产法院于2022年7月8日作出的命令，在第11章案件中担任第11章受托人[案号22-50073（“主案件”），案卷编号523]。\n\n8. 被告是一家加利福尼亚州有限责任公司，其办事处位于209 E. 32nd Street, Los Angeles, California 90011。\n\n事实\n\nA. 第11章案件\n\n9. 债务人于2022年2月15日（“申请日”）在United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Connecticut（康涅狄格州联邦破产法院，“破产法院”）依据《美国法典》第11编（“破产法典”）第11章提交自愿救济申请，由此启动上述标题所列第11章案件（“第11章案件”）。\n\n10. 2022年3月21日，Office of the United States Trustee（美国受托人办公室）在本第11章案件中任命了一个无担保债权人正式委员会。尚未任命审查员。\n\n11. 债务人于2022年3月向破产法院提交的破产财产清单主张其拥有\\$3,850的资产，并产生了数亿美元的负债。3 尽管债务人的确负债累累，其财产清单未披露债务人通过其众多替身空壳公司持有和/或转让的财产，包括G Fashion和G Fashion Media。\n\n12. 2022年6月15日，破产法院作出决定备忘录和命令[主案件案卷编号465]，指示美国受托人在第11章案件中任命一名第11章受托人。根据该命令，美国受托人选定Luc A. Despins担任受托人。2022年7月8日，破产法院作出命令，准予\n\n3 资产和负债清单，第1页[主案件案卷编号78]。\n\n任命Luc A. Despins为第11章案件的受托人[主案件案卷编号523]。\n\nB. 债务人对空壳公司的使用及受托人的对抗诉讼程序\n\n13. G Fashion和G Fashion Media是债务人用以阻碍、拖延和/或欺诈其债权人的众多替身空壳公司中的一部分。4 多年来，债务人精心策划了一场“空壳把戏”，使用由家庭成员、副手和/或下属名义持有、但实际上由债务人控制的复杂空壳公司网络。这场空壳把戏使债务人得以使用、支出和/或转让数百万美元现金及其他资产。\n\n14. 自获任命以来，受托人已在第11章案件中提起多项对抗诉讼程序，其中包括确立债务人的空壳公司系其替身和/或该等公司及其资产由债务人衡平拥有；在若干案件中，破产法院已经准予该等救济。[5]\n\n15. 该等诉讼中的事实模式一贯包括：(i) 由近亲和/或下属持有的、受债务人控制的空壳公司；(ii) 使用来自其他受债务人控制实体的现金购买的资产和/或无对价转让给空壳实体及在空壳实体之间转让的资产；以及(iii) 债务人从该等资产中受益，并对其拥有控制权和支配权。\n\n4 受托人已经或将立即对G Fashion和G Fashion Media提起对抗诉讼程序，该对抗诉讼程序除其他事项外，请求确认判决，确认G Fashion和G Fashion Media系债务人的替身。受托人通过引用将其在该对抗诉讼程序中提交的诉状并入本文。\n\n5 这些对抗程序包括如下：(i) Luc A. Despins（卢克·A·德斯平斯），第11章受托人诉 HK International Funds Investments (USA) Limited, LLC（HK国际基金投资（美国）有限责任公司）等 [Adv. Proc. No. 22-05003]；(ii) Luc A. Despins，第11章受托人诉 Greenwich Land LLC（格林威治地产有限责任公司）等 [Adv.

Despins，第11章受托人诉 Taurus Fund LLC（金牛基金有限责任公司）等 [Adv. Proc. No. 23- 05017]；(vi) Luc A. Despins，第11章受托人诉 Golden Spring (New York) Limited（黄金之春（纽约）有限公司）[Adv. Proc. 23-05018]；以及 (vii) Luc A. Despins，第11章受托人诉 Lamp Capital LLC（蓝普资本有限责任公司）等 [Adv. Proc. 23-05023]。\n\nC. 债务人为阻碍、拖延及/或欺诈债权人所实施的行为\n\n16. 除受托人对抗程序中处理的事项外，破产法院还认定，债务人系 Ace Decade Limited（艾斯十年有限公司）（并通过该公司系 Dawn State Limited（黎明州有限公司））的实益所有人，且债务人控制并利用了 Ace Decade Limited 的名义股东 Yvette Wang（王雁平）。[6]\n\n17. 破产法院还认定，“G Entities”（Gettr、G Fashion、G Music、GClubs、GNews 和 GEdu）、New Federal State of China（新中国联邦）及 Rule of Law Foundation（法治基金会），以及其他据称独立的实体和组织，均由债务人控制，[7]由债务人领导[8]及/或为债务人的“目的服务……并作为债务人的商业工具”。[9]\n\n18. 在申请日之前，United States District Court for the Southern District of New York（美国纽约南区联邦地区法院）的 Liman 法官认定，Eastern Profit Corporation Limited（东方盈利有限公司）——一家最初由债务人的一名厨师所有、后转让给债务人女儿的实体——“实质上是”债务人的一家空壳公司。[10]\n\n19. 债务人不遗余力地阻碍和拖延其最大债权人之一，即 Pacific Alliance Asia Opportunity Fund, L.P.（太平洋联盟亚洲机会基金，有限合伙）（“PAX”）的追偿行动。2017年，PAX 在 Supreme Court of the State of New York（纽约州最高法院）（“纽约法院”）起诉债务人，案号为 Index No. 652077/2017（“PAX案”），请求就所欠款项作出判决书。2021年2月3日，PAX 获得纽约法院针对债务人的判决书，金额为 $116,402,019.57（“PAX判决书”）。PAX 试图通过扣押债务人的资产来执行 PAX判决书——包括 Lady May（“Lady May”号游艇），债务人虚假声称该游艇为其女儿所有；以及债务人在 Manhattan（曼哈顿）的豪华公寓，债务人虚假声称该公寓为其儿子以信托方式持有。债务人在判决后程序中藐视纽约法院命令，最终导致其被处以 $134 million 的藐视法庭罚款。\n\n20. 债务人还将其替身实体，包括 G Fashion（G时尚）和 G Fashion Media（G时尚传媒），作为个人钱袋，用于资助其本人及家人已习惯的奢华生活方式，同时将资产隐匿于这些替身实体中，以躲避其债权人，并阻碍和拖延债权人就其债权获得追偿。债务人通过这些替身实体实施的转让延续了债务人的欺诈计划。\n\n21. 债务人在破产法院作证称，其资产不足以清偿其负债，且其奢华生活方式由其家人通过名义上由家庭成员持有的企业资助。[11]债务人在资产清单中仅列报 $3,850 的资产。[12]\n\n22. 2023年3月，债务人被捕，并仍因电信欺诈、证券欺诈和洗钱等联邦刑事指控而被羁押候审。\n\n6 准许动议以裁定债务人藐视公司治理命令的裁定，¶¶ 1, 4 (Jan. 24, 2023, Docket No. 1372 (“Corp.

June 22, 2021)。\n\n23. 在其对债务人提出的刑事起诉书中，美国政府主张，债务人及其共同被告“利用至少80个不同实体或个人名下持有的超过约500个账户，对超过 $1 billion 的欺诈所得进行洗钱”。[13]\n\n24. 债务人的替身实体财产，包括 G Fashion 和 G Fashion Media 的财产，在申请日前任何时候均为债务人的财产。\n\n25. 在与本案相关的所有期间内，债务人在 New York, New York（纽约州纽约市）从事商业活动，包括指示转让（定义见下文）。\n\nD. 为阻碍、拖延或欺诈债权人而实施的转让\n\n26. 本起诉状所涉转让均系通过债务人作为其“空壳游戏”一部分而运营的替身空壳公司作出，因而具有阻碍、拖延及/或欺诈债务人债权人的意图。\n\n27. 债务人故意以该方式安排其财务事务，以便隐匿和耗散数百万美元资产，同时向其众多债权人虚假声称贫困。债务人声称自己一无所有，却同时大肆支出，以维持其本人及其家庭成员和亲密关联人的亿万富翁生活方式。\n\n28. 债务人隐匿和耗散的资产包括其从其加密货币、证券及其他欺诈计划的受害人处取得的资金。由于该等行为，债务人在 United States District Court for the Southern District of New York 正在审理的一宗刑事案件中面临多项重罪欺诈、洗钱和敲诈勒索指控。参见 United States（美国）v. Ho Wan Kwok（郭文贵）, case no. 1:23-cr-00118-AT [ECF No. 215] (Jan. 3, 2024 S.D.N.Y.)。\n\n13 参见 United States of America（美利坚合众国）反对被告 Yanping Wang（王雁平）审前释放动议的法律备忘录，第29页，作为 Exhibit B 附于第11章受托人对 G Club Operations LLC（G俱乐部运营有限责任公司）就受托人强制履行动议及相关救济请求提出的补充异议之答复中 (June 23, 2023, Main Case Docket No. 1934)。\n\n29. 债务人知道并意图通过该方式隐匿和耗散其资产，将不会留下足够资产偿还其债权人——包括其诸多欺诈行为的受害人。因此，这些转让必然具有阻碍、拖延及/或欺诈债务人债权人的意图。\n\n30. 即使债务人向其债权人声称自己身无分文，其同时仍将其奢华生活方式作为营销工具，以推广其欺诈计划。该策略的众多例证之一是债务人的“Hcoin to the Moon”音乐视频，其中债务人炫耀包括游艇、跑车、西装、雪茄和家居陈设在内的奢华个人财产，以推广对其一项欺诈性加密货币项目的投资。[14]\n\n31. 这进一步反映了债务人就该等转让所具有之欺诈意图。\n\nE. 向被告作出的转让\n\n32. 在申请日之前，债务人通过其替身空壳公司，包括 G Fashion 和 G Fashion Media，或以其他方式，将债务人的财产转让给被告（统称“该等转让”），包括但不限于如下：\n\n参见作为本文件附件并构成本文件一部分的附表A。\n\n33. 在作出该等转让时，债务人对债务人财产的债权人负有未清偿义务。\n\n34. 被告是该等转让的初始受让人。\n\n第一项请求\n\n（依据《破产法》sections 548(a)(1)(A) and 550(a)撤销并追回实际欺诈性转让之请求）\n\n14 参见（最后访问于 Jan. 25, 2024）。债务人于2021年12月在 YouTube（优兔）发布该音乐视频，约在申请日之前两个月。\n\n35. 受托人重申并再次主张第1至34段所载指控，如同在本文件中完整列明。\n\n36. 债务人通过其替身实体 G Fashion 和 G Fashion Media 作出该等转让时，具有实际阻碍、拖延及/或欺诈其债权人的意图。\n\n37. 债务人在实施该等转让时阻碍、拖延及/或欺诈其债权人的意图，除其他事项外，体现在：\n\na. 该等转让系利用替身空壳公司实施；\n\nb. 该等转让对债务人的债权人予以隐瞒；\n\nc. 该等转让系债务人“空壳游戏”的一部分，在其所控制的家庭成员及其他副手和下属的协助下实施，旨在隐匿和保护资产；\n\nd. 该等转让通过使债务人能够从其欺诈中受益，而不使其财产落入其债权人的追索范围，从而推进了债务人的欺诈行为；\n\ne. 该等转让通过使债务人能够从其欺诈中获利，而不使其财产落入其债权人的追索范围，从而推进了债务人的欺诈行为；\n\nf. 在作出该等转让时，债务人正遭受诉讼，包括 PAX 在 PAX案中对其提起的诉讼；以及\n\ng. 在作出该等转让时，债务人已无力偿债或资本不足。\n\n38. 受托人可依据《破产法》section 548(a)(i)(A)撤销该等转让，并可依据《破产法》section 550(a)追回该等转让。\n\n第二项请求\n\n（依据 N.Y. Debt. & Cred. Law sections 273, 274, and 276，以及《破产法》sections 544(b) and 550(a)撤销并追回实际欺诈性转让之请求）\n\n39. 受托人重申并再次主张第1至34段所载指控，如同在本文件中完整列明。\n\n40. 债务人通过其替身公司 G Fashion 和 G Fashion Media 作出该等转让时，具有实际阻碍、拖延及/或欺诈其债权人的意图。\n\n41. 债务人在实施该等转让时阻碍、拖延及/或欺诈其债权人的意图，除其他事项外，体现在：\n\na. 该等转让系利用替身空壳公司实施；\n\nb. 该等转让对债务人的债权人予以隐瞒；\n\nc. 该等转让系债务人“空壳游戏”的一部分，在其所控制的家庭成员及其他副手和下属的协助下实施，旨在隐匿和保护资产；\n\nd. 该等转让通过使债务人能够从其欺诈中受益，而不使其财产落入其债权人的追索范围，从而推进了债务人的欺诈行为；\n\ne. 该等转让通过使债务人能够从其欺诈中获利，而不使其财产落入其债权人的追索范围，从而推进了债务人的欺诈行为；\n\nf. 在作出该等转让时，债务人正遭受诉讼，包括 PAX 在 PAX案中对其提起的诉讼；以及\n\ng. 在作出该等转让时，债务人已无力偿债或资本不足。\n\n42. 受托人可依据 N.Y.
