With the official announcement of Gao Weidong's sentence to life imprisonment, the once glorious "former chairman of Moutai Group" has been burdened with labels such as **, many times**, two-faced people, and moral turpitude, and has since been separated from Moutai.
Gao Weidong was born in 1972, and after entering the officialdom, his career can be described as a smooth progress: 26 years old, a substantive deputy department; 27 years old, full-time course; 28 years old, substantive deputy director; 34 years old, in real office; 40 years old, substantive deputy office; 46 years old, the main hall ......Such a speed of promotion may be beyond the reach of more than 95% of the career people in the system.
In March 2020, Gao Weidong transferred from officialdom to Moutai, and enjoyed the scenery exclusively as the head of the "No. 1 liquor brand in the universe". However, Gao Weidong's work does not seem to be going smoothly during his tenure as chairman of Moutai
When he first arrived at Moutai, Gao Weidong was accused of arrogance; Subsequently, a donation with a total amount of more than 800 million yuan was reported by small and medium-sized shareholders to the Shanghai Stock Exchange and the China Securities Regulatory Commission, and was accused of "illegal donation", and finally had to be terminated; In the more than a year that Gao Weidong has been at the helm of Moutai, Moutai's revenue and net profit have declined.
In fact, when Gao Weidong was transferred to Moutai Group as Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman, and was in charge of this large state-owned enterprise with a market value of over one trillion yuan at the age of less than 48, there were rumors that this post adjustment was just a gilded trip for Gao Weidong.
Before entering Moutai, Gao Weidong had been an official for 8 years in the leadership positions at the deputy department level and the department level. If Gao Weidong can be honest and not make mistakes before and after, this stage will also become a key node for his personal rank from the "department" to the "department". Perhaps, the previous rumors that Gao Weidong used Moutai as a springboard to go further were not groundless.
Most of Gao Weidong's footholds are in Guiyang City and Guizhou Provincial Department of Transportation - he has successively served as the director of the Environmental Protection Bureau of the Economic Development Zone, the deputy head of Xiaohe District, the deputy director of the Management Committee of the Economic Development Zone, the secretary of the Party Committee of the Development and Construction of Jinyang New District, the chairman of the board of directors and the deputy director of the management committee of the new district, the chairman of the board of directors of state-owned enterprises, the director of the municipal transportation bureau, the member of the municipal party group, the deputy mayor and other positions; Subsequently, Gao Weidong entered the Guizhou Provincial Department of Communications, and successively served as deputy director and director, thus entering the main hall sequence.
After staying in Moutai for 1 year and 6 months, in August 2021, Gao Weidong suddenly got a paper order, and he was unexpectedly transferred to the Guizhou Provincial Coalfield Geology Bureau as a member of the Party Committee and director. The previous rumors that Gao Weidong could still enter the "department" and be promoted were shattered with this position adjustment.
On the contrary, when Gao Weidong was transferred to the Coalfield Geology Bureau, there was a new rumor that "Gao Weidong was going to be investigated". Soon after, the rumors became reality: in May 2022, the Guizhou Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision released news that Gao Weidong was suspected of serious violations of discipline and law and was subject to disciplinary review and supervision investigation by the Guizhou Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision.
In the investigation of Gao Weidong, the Guizhou Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision gave the following basis: Gao Weidong lost his ideals and beliefs, betrayed his original mission, was disloyal and dishonest to the party, engaged in duplicity, and was a two-faced person; ignoring organizational principles and engaging in political clinging; lack of faith, keen on superstitious activities; Deliberately resisting organizational censorship. Ignoring the spirit of the eight regulations, playing golf and accepting banquets in violation of regulations for a long time, seeking special work and life security benefits. Engage in power and sex trading, money and sex trading. Illegal apportionment of expenses. Improper performance of duties causing adverse effects. Moral turpitude, extreme corruption in life, long-term addiction to gambling, many times. The bottom line of discipline and law is broken, and he is willing to be "hunted", taking advantage of his position to seek benefits for others, and illegally accepting huge amounts of property.
The bear is coming, jump into the ** and give it a go, and the car may become a motorcycle; It is rumored that let the bullets fly for a while, and countless ** will be difficult to hide. There should be a lot of Chaoyang people in the market, which is enough to make the rumor a fact: "Gao Weidong is going to be investigated" After the wind rose, it finally became a prophecy.
Before being investigated, Gao Weidong also had two special identities, one was a deputy to the National People's Congress, and the other was a member of the Guizhou Provincial Party Committee. Under certain conditions, these two identities can become Gao Weidong's "talisman", but unfortunately, Gao Weidong once held a good deck of cards, but as a result, his life was ruined - countless ** experiences have proved that no matter how high your official position is, if you violate your original intention and fall into the trap of greed that you can't extricate yourself from, it will not end well in the end.
In fact, looking at Gao Weidong's career path, in terms of the promotion speed of his entry into the main hall at the age of 46, if there are people above, if there is time, the initial rumors of entering the "department" may not be difficult for him. However, there are not many assumptions in this world, and of course there is no regret medicine for Gao Weidong to enjoy, after being sentenced to life imprisonment, without major meritorious service, he may have to spend the rest of his life in prison.
According to the information disclosed by the court in the case, Gao Weidong used his position to seek benefits for others all the way while serving as director of the Environmental Protection Bureau, deputy district head, chairman of a state-owned enterprise, director of the Municipal Transportation Bureau, deputy mayor, director of the Management Committee, deputy director and director of the Department of Transportation, and later as chairman of the Moutai Group and director of the Provincial Coalfield Geology BureauMore than 100 million yuan.
Judging from the effective information given by the case, Gao Weidong has shown his own nature as a leader in almost every key position - he will go up when he sees profit, accept money when he sees it, boldly pluck the feathers of the "geese" who fly by, and have no mercy on the money he thinks he can eat, and he has long lost the so-called bottom line.
While engaging in large-scale corruption, Gao Weidong forgot a simple truth often talked about by the older generation: money is something outside the body, you can't bring it in life, and you can't take it in death! Huge greed 1100 million, you only have three meals a day, and it is enough to sleep in a bed at night, so why bother to lose the freedom of the second half of your life?
It was precisely because of his insatiable desire that Gao Weidong sent himself to prison and became another ** who fell drunk at the feet of Moutai. In the end, Gao Weidong, who was sentenced to life imprisonment, was 1Most of the 100 million yuan in stolen money and goods have been returned.
lost his party membership, lost his public office, and was imprisoned for his crimes, under this kind of ending, in addition to being nailed to the pillar of shame with identity labels such as ** and the former chairman of Moutai Group, Gao Weidong has almost fallen to the point of being empty of people and money, which can be said to have lost his life.
