Yang Xiaobo, born in Yangcheng County, Shanxi Province in November 1971, graduated from Nankai University with a major in economics, and was the mayor of Gaoping City, Jincheng City, Shanxi Province. She was suspected of serious violations of discipline and law, and was put on file for review by the ** Commission for Discipline Inspection in April 2014, and was expelled from the party and public office in November of the same year, and transferred to the judicial organs. It is said that she had improper relations with 42 ** during her tenure and collected a fortune of 14 million yuan. After being caught, she knelt on the ground and pleaded for mercy, but to no avail.
Yang Xiaobo. From the Bureau of Mines to the Mayor.
Yang Xiaobo's political career began in 1991 when she joined the Jincheng Mining Bureau after graduating from the Southeast Shanxi Normal College. During her tenure at the Mining Bureau, she was mainly responsible for cadre management and became a member of the leadership team of the Mining Bureau in 1995. Since then, she has successively served in the Organization Department of the Jincheng Municipal Party Committee, the Jincheng Youth League Committee and other departments, and gradually accumulated political capital and connections.
In May 2006, Yang Xiaobo was appointed head of the Propaganda Department of the Jincheng Urban District Committee and began her propaganda work. In this position, she vigorously promoted the cultural construction and external image building of Jincheng City, and also got to know some first-class people and entrepreneurs. Her work has been recognized and praised by her superiors.
In May 2011, Yang Xiaobo was unexpectedly promoted to mayor of Gaoping City. This leapfrog promotion has attracted attention and questions from the outside world, because it is very rare to be promoted directly from the propaganda minister to the mayor. Generally speaking, such an important position as mayor requires experience and ability in economic management or grassroots work, and Yang Xiaobo obviously lacks the background and quality to do so. Some people suspect that she relied on some special relationship or means to get such a promotion.
A month later, Yang Xiaobo was officially elected mayor of Gaoping. As a new female mayor, she has received the attention and popularity of **. She said in an interview that she would work hard to improve Gaoping's economic development and people's livelihood, and hoped to create a "beautiful, rich and happy" Gaoping.
Engage in real estate development.
After Yang Xiaobo took office, he embarked on a real estate development project on an unprecedented scale. She reached a cooperation agreement with Country Garden Group, a well-known real estate company in Guangdong, and plans to invest 2.6 billion yuan to build a modern residential area covering an area of about 2,000 acres in Gaoping City. Dubbed "Gaoping Country Garden", this project is the first project of Country Garden Group in Shanxi Province and the largest real estate project in the history of Gaoping City.
Yang Xiaobo has high hopes for the project, believing that it will drive the city's economic transformation and urban renewal, as well as enhance the city's popularity and attractiveness. At the signing ceremony of the project, she said that "Gaoping Country Garden" is "a shining pearl on the road to revitalization" and "an important starting point for achieving leapfrog development" in Gaoping City.
Yang Xiaobo. However, in the eyes of the outside world, the "Gaoping Country Garden" project does not meet the actual situation and needs of Gaoping City. Gaoping City is a county-level city with agriculture as the mainstay, industry as the supplement, lack of resources, sparse population and underdeveloped economy. It does not have enough home buying demand and spending power to support such a large and luxurious residential complex. Moreover, the "Gaoping Country Garden" project occupies a large amount of land resources and financial funds, which has also adversely affected the ecological environment and social stability of Gaoping City.
Having an affair with superiors and subordinates.
During his tenure as mayor of Gaoping, Yang Xiaobo was not only financially insatiable, but also emotionally uninhibited. She had inappropriate relationships with a number of men, including her superiors and subordinate cadres.
Yang Xiaobo had a close and ambiguous relationship with Wang Yongchun, then secretary of the Jincheng Municipal Party Committee. Wang Yongchun is Yang Xiaobo's political backer and benefactor, and he is also the driving force behind her direct promotion from propaganda minister to mayor. The two often travel together, have meetings, investigate, socialize, and are also intimate in public. Some people call them "Wang Yang Combination", and some people call them "Wang Yang Couple".
In addition to Wang Yongchun, Yang Xiaobo also had an unclear relationship with Zhang Moumou, then deputy secretary of the Gaoping Municipal Party Committee and secretary of the Political and Legal Committee. Zhang Moumou is one of Yang Xiaobo's most important deputies in Gaoping City, responsible for stability maintenance and legal system. The two often go in and out together, live together, and have sex in the office, hotel, and car.
Mr. Yang also had intimate contacts with several of his cadres. One of them was Liu Moumou, then general manager of the Gaoping Country Garden project. Liu Moumou is an important figure who Yang Xiaobo was transferred from Country Garden Group to Gaoping City as a deputy county-level cadre and is specifically responsible for the construction and management of the "Gaoping Country Garden" project. The two were in frequent contact during the course of the project and had emotional entanglements.
Fall off the horse and stand on trial. On March 6, 2014, Xie Kemin, then secretary of the Gaoping Municipal Party Committee, was investigated by the ** Commission for Discipline Inspection. Xie Kemin is one of Yang's biggest political enemies in Gaoping, and the two often clash and disagree over work philosophy and personality issues. After Xie Kemin's downfall, many people thought that Yang Xiaobo would take this opportunity to consolidate his position and power, and even possibly succeed Xie Kemin as party secretary of Gaoping.
However, only a month later, Yang Xiaobo was also taken away by the ** Commission for Discipline Inspection. She became the third woman in Shanxi Province to fall from power, and she was also the third consecutive mayor of Gaoping City to be investigated. Her fall sparked a shock and heated discussion in the society, and many people questioned how she rose from an ordinary cadre of the Mining Bureau to the position of mayor in just a few years, and how she amassed tens of millions of dollars during her tenure as mayor and had affairs with many men. After being arrested, she knelt on the ground and cried and pleaded, saying: "I know it's wrong, I'm afraid of prison, I'm afraid of my future life, it's really difficult, save me!."
In January 2015, Yang Xiaobo was transferred to the judiciary. In July of the same year, she was tried at the Jincheng Intermediate People's Court. The prosecution accused her of taking advantage of her position to seek benefits for others and accepting bribes totaling 14.3 million yuanAt the same time, she also had improper relationships with multiple men, seriously violating party discipline and moral norms. In court, Yang Xiaobo pleaded guilty and repented of the prosecution's charges and asked the court to give him a lighter sentence. She also became the first woman in China's anti-corruption history to be expelled from the party and public office for adultery.
