Xiao Jianhua, Wang Jian (HNA) are recent examples. When Bo Xilai was purged, Xu Ming, a businessman with very close ties to him, were arrested for bribery, and later died mysteriously in prison.

When one stands in front of the Many Faced God, all the money they had, even if it were trillions are literally useless. Many may have read about it for a while, but it was only these recent events that makes you truly understand. Why they are willing to paid millions for "services" to move their "millions" out of China and live outside. Fan Bingbing is another example, and countless others. And it proves that China, is still no different to how it operate in the Qing dynasty or all dynasty before hundreds to thousands years ago. But of coz my guess are many of these stories don't get covered by Western Media.
