Stop supporting the Chinese Communist Party. Let this be insight into what will happen if that system is spread to the West.
Do the wealthy think they will be bigger than government when it is centrally controlled?

This wealthy man is given 18 years for offending their Emperor. Even if he was guilty of corruption, this is a heavy sentence by Chinas standards. Their entire country knows what it was all about, and it wasn't corruption or abuse of power (how ironic).

China jails tycoon Ren Zhigiang for 18 years on graft, after he allegedly calls President Xi 'clown with no clothes' in article

China jailed outspoken property tycoon Ren Zhiqiang for 18 years on graft charges, months after he was linked to an article criticizing President Xi Jinping’s handling of the coronavirus outbreak.

The former chairman of Huayuan Property Co. was sentenced Tuesday after pleading guilty to four charges including corruption and abuse of power, the No.2 Beijing Intermediate People’s Court said. Ren was found to have amassed some 132 million yuan ($19 million) in bribes and other ill-gotten personal benefits between 2003 and 2017, the court said, adding that he had agreed not to appeal.
