The Meng Zhaoguo Incident occurred in June 1994 on Fenghuang Mountain near the Hongqi Forest Farm in Wuchang City, Heilongjiang Province. Meng Zhaoguo, a 27-year-old forest farm worker at the time, claimed to have encountered a huge, milky-white unidentified object on the southern slope of Fenghuang Mountain. The object was shaped like a giant white tadpole with a long tail trailing behind it. On June 7, he went up the mountain with his nephew-in-law Li Honghai to investigate. When they were about 150 meters away from the object, it emitted a shrill alarm sound. Meng Zhaoguo felt a strong electric shock from the iron objects he was carrying (such as his belt buckle, sickle, and watch), as if he had been electrocuted. Unable to get any closer, they had to retreat.
On June 9, the chairman of the forest farm's trade union led more than 30 people, including Meng Zhaoguo, up the mountain again to investigate. About 5 kilometers away from the alleged landing site of the unidentified object, the group searched with binoculars but found nothing. However, when the binoculars were handed to Meng Zhaoguo, he had only scanned the direction for two or three seconds before shouting, "I see it!" He then collapsed to the ground, convulsing and fainting. According to his elder brother Meng Zhaoyi and colleagues present, Meng Zhaoguo had a vacant stare, feared light, and showed extreme fear of iron objects at that time (he reacted with great fear and resistance when someone tried to feed him water with an iron spoon or use a stethoscope on him). He also couldn't speak, his tongue was stiff, his eyes were wide open, and sometimes his eyeballs rotated rapidly from side to side. Dr. Lin, who was in the group, once brought a lit cigarette end close to Meng Zhaoguo's eyeball to test him, but Meng didn't even blink. The doctor believed this couldn't be faked. The group carried him to a nearby shed for first aid and then took him to the forest farm's clinic.
After regaining his memory (around June 16), Meng Zhaoguo told investigators about an even more bizarre experience. He claimed that while receiving first aid in the mountain shed on June 9, he saw a female alien about 3 meters tall, covered in hair, and with six fingers on each hand (he later described her skin as slightly bluish-purple and her body hair as thick). The alien instructed his elder brother and others to take off his clothes. After feeling the female alien gesture over his body, he jumped up as if electrocuted. Later, on the night of June 10 at his home, Meng Zhaoguo claimed the female alien appeared again, emitting fluorescent light all over her body, and entered his room by passing through the wall or ceiling. At that time, his wife and daughter were fast asleep in the bed beside him, but he floated up and had sexual intercourse with the female alien for about 40 minutes. He described that the process was initially accompanied by pain and a sense of oppression ("She pressed on me, and she was so tall that I couldn't move at all"), but he also mentioned that during a subsequent encounter, he had an experience that was "better than anything I'd ever felt before."
According to Meng Zhaoguo's account, around July 16, he was taken into a spacecraft by a male alien. Inside the spacecraft were several aliens who looked identical. Meng Zhaoguo claimed these humanoid beings "were all wearing black tight-fitting clothes, with only two square eyes exposed (possibly something like goggles), swollen bodies, and six fingers on each hand." The interior of the spacecraft was generally concave downward. Throughout the time Meng Zhaoguo was there, neither he nor the humanoid beings touched the ground—their feet remained floating in the air. Inside the spacecraft, there were no other devices except a floating flat panel and a transparent cube placed on the panel. These humanoid beings used the transparent cube to show Meng Zhaoguo images similar to a comet crashing into Jupiter (it was later confirmed that this coincided with the time when Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 collided with Jupiter). They warned humanity to pay attention to environmental protection and avoid nuclear war, speaking in standard Chinese (Meng Zhaoguo claimed the voice seemed to come from the beings' stomachs). These humanoid beings said they were from a planet called "Hamam," and their purposes for coming to Earth included seeking refuge, investigating the Earth, and "obtaining human genes." They told Meng Zhaoguo that within 60 years (i.e., before 2054), the child he had with the female alien would be born on their planet, and he would have the opportunity to visit. Meng Zhaoguo later added in an interview that the communication between these humanoid beings produced a strange sound, like the squeaking of mice mixed with the sound of a video tape being fast-forwarded, and he wasn't sure if this was their language.
After the incident, several unexplained scars appeared on Meng Zhaoguo's body (on his right lower abdomen, the inner side of his right thigh, and between his eyebrows on his forehead). He claimed that a few months later, he picked out a foreign object from one of the scars—"it was like chewing gum, sticky, elastic, and stretchable"—but unfortunately, his wife accidentally threw it away while cleaning. In September 2003, UFO researcher Zhang Jingping arranged for Meng Zhaoguo to undergo a lie detector test under hypnosis. The results showed that Meng did not show signs of lying when describing the key parts of the incident. Zhang Jingping quoted a doctor's opinion as saying that the scar on his leg "was not caused by a normal injury or surgery."
Although Meng Zhaoguo passed the lie detector test and he was not the only one to initially witness the UFO (other forest farm workers who had gone up the mountain to pick wild vegetables had previously reported seeing a white object on the mountain), the incident has always been highly controversial. This is due to the lack of independent evidence for the supernatural parts of his account (for example, his elder brother clearly stated that he had not seen any aliens in the shed), the absence of any traces of the initially discovered UFO entity, and the extremely bizarre nature of his experience. Skeptics believe it may have stemmed from hallucinations, hysteria, or other psychological factors, but Meng Zhaoguo himself has insisted on the truth of his story to this day. In 2016, Meng Zhaoguo also claimed to have been taken into a UFO by aliens again and brought back two so-called "Jupiter meteorites." This incident has become one of the most famous unsolved cases in the history of UFO research in China.
