Zhou Jiangyong was arrested! The two brothers jointly accepted huge sums of money, and the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection used a new expression when punishing him

This morning, the Supreme People's Procuratorate announced that the case of Zhou Jiangyong, former member of the Standing Committee of the Zhejiang Provincial CPC Committee and former secretary of the Hangzhou Municipal CPC Committee, on suspicion of accepting bribes, was investigated by the State Supervision Commission and transferred to the procuratorial organs for examination and prosecution. A few days ago, the Supreme People's Procuratorate made a decision to arrest Zhou Jiangyong on suspicion of accepting bribes in accordance with the law. The case is under further processing.

This is the third consecutive day that the procuratorate has dealt with "tigers". On 9 July, jiangsu procuratorial organs indicted Gan Rongkun, former member of the Standing Committee of the Henan Provincial CPC Committee and former secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, on suspicion of accepting bribes; yesterday, the Supreme People's Procuratorate and the Henan procuratorial organs separately decided to arrest Cai Esheng, former member of the party committee and vice chairman of the China Banking Regulatory Commission, and Meng Xiang, former member of the Adjudication Committee of the Supreme People's Court and former director of the Executive Bureau.

Rare representations appeared in the circular

Zhou Jiangyong, who was investigated on August 21 last year, was the 20th "tiger" to fall last year, and the first deputy provincial-level city party secretary to be investigated in office last year. According to public reports by local media in Hangzhou, Zhou Jiangyong also had a public activity the afternoon before the fall. In the afternoon of the same day, the first (expanded) meeting of the Hangzhou Carbon Peak Carbon Neutrality Work Leading Group was held. Zhou Jiangyong presided over and spoke.

Public resumes show that Zhou Jiangyong, male, born in September 1967, Han ethnicity, ningbo, Zhejiang, joined the work in August 1985. Zhou Jiangyong has served in Ningbo, Zhoushan, Wenzhou, Hangzhou and other places, and served as a member of the Standing Committee of the Ningbo Municipal Party Committee, secretary of the Party Working Committee of the Development and Construction Management Committee of Ningbo Hangzhou Bay New Area, secretary and mayor of the Zhoushan Municipal Party Committee, secretary of the Party Working Committee and director of the Management Committee of The Zhoushan Islands New Area in Zhejiang Province, deputy director of the Zhejiang Provincial Marine Port Development Committee (preparation), secretary of the Zhoushan Municipal Party Committee, secretary of the Party Working Committee and director of the Management Committee of the Zhoushan Islands New Area of Zhejiang Province, deputy director of the Zhejiang Provincial Marine Port Development Committee (concurrently); secretary of the Wenzhou Municipal Party Committee; member of the Standing Committee of the Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee. Secretary of the Wenzhou Municipal Party Committee, Member of the Standing Committee of the Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee, Secretary of the Hangzhou Municipal Party Committee and other positions.

On January 26 this year, Zhou Jiangyong was "double-opened". Zhou Jiangyong was accused of violating the party Central Committee's decision-making and deployment, colluding with capital, supporting the disorderly expansion of capital, engaging in superstitious activities, and deliberately resisting organizational review; ignoring the spirit of the eight central regulations, engaging in formalism in work, illegally appointing guard personnel and official vehicles, accepting banquets that may affect the fair performance of official duties, and accepting gifts and gifts in violation of regulations; lacking organizational principles, and engaging in the selection and appointment of cadres in violation of regulations at the request of private business owners, and failing to report personal matters in accordance with regulations; interfering in the market economy and law enforcement and judicial activities in violation of regulations There is no bottom line of discipline and law, they engage in power and money transactions on a large scale, use their positions to facilitate the use of their positions to seek profits for others in the areas of project contracting, land transfer, and tax returns, illegally accept huge amounts of property and property in collusion with relatives, and engage in family-style corruption.

"Shangguan He" noted that this is the first time that the expression "linked with capital and supporting the disorderly expansion of capital" appeared in the party discipline and government affairs circular. In the communiqué of the Sixth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Discipline Inspection Commission released on January 20 this year, it was also pointed out that this year will focus on investigating and dealing with corrupt acts behind the disorderly expansion of capital and platform monopoly, and cutting off the link between power and capital.

In October 2020, the Fourth Inspection Group of the Central Committee inspected the Zhejiang Provincial Work Mobilization Meeting. Public reports at the time showed that the central inspection team worked in Zhejiang Province for about 2 and a half months. On February 6 last year, the Fourth Inspection Group of the Central Committee gave feedback on the inspection to the Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee and also gave feedback on the inspection to Zhou Jiangyong, secretary of the Hangzhou Municipal Party Committee. The relevant person in charge of the inspection team pointed out in the feedback that the inspection found that the supervision and restraint of the operation of power in some key areas of the Hangzhou Municipal Party Committee were not in place, there was still a gap in the leading body to strengthen its own construction, and the implementation of the responsibility for party building work was not strong enough.

Appeared on camera to confess

In January this year, Zhou Jiangyong appeared on camera to confess.

"Zhou Jiangyong and his younger brother Zhou Jianyong were engaged in politics and business, and Zhou Jiangyong used public power to help his brother in business." In the fifth episode of the anti-corruption blockbuster "Zero Tolerance", "Forever on the Road", which was broadcast at the end of January, Zhou Jiangyong and his brother joined forces to commit corruption and engage in "one family, two systems" to attract attention.

According to reports, Zhou Jiangyong's younger brother Zhou Jianyong was a university teacher, but he had no intention of teaching and envied business life. Zhou Jiangyong used his power to help his brother with funds, land, equipment, and even intervened in the judiciary to help his brother evade criminal punishment in the environmental pollution case.

The first bucket of gold seized by the brothers Zhou Jiangyong and Zhou Jianyong was based on the trading of power and money. A private enterprise under the instruction of Zhou Jiangyong, and Zhou Jianyong "cooperated" to open Ningbo Xiangrun Petrochemical Technology Co., Ltd., the so-called "cooperation" is actually just a cover, soon Xiangrun Petrochemical Company became Zhou Jianyong independent contracting, but still for a long time free use of the private enterprise's land, plant and equipment. By waiving the lease royalties, over the years, the private enterprise has transferred more than seven million yuan in benefits to the Zhou Jiangyong brothers. Correspondingly, Zhou Jiangyong used his authority to help the company in obtaining land.

Zhou Jianyong threw himself into the business sea, and also gave various merchants the opportunity to use him to hunt Zhou Jiangyong. Shi Shihong, the owner of a construction company, is one of them. From 2013 to 2017, Zhou Jiangyong successively provided assistance to Shi Shihong in a number of projects involving Zhoushan and Wenzhou, in accordance with the request conveyed by Zhou Jianyong, and Zhou Jianyong accepted money sent by Shi Shihong eight times in the name of "borrowing", with a total amount of more than 90 million yuan, but did not think of repaying.

Entering the era of digital economy, Zhou Jianyong also hopes to catch this bus. In 2017, he founded Youcheng United Information Technology Development Co., Ltd. in Ningbo, a joint venture between Ningbo and Renren, declaring that it is a high-tech company focusing on "subway Internet +", but in fact, the core resource is the power of his brother Zhou Jiangyong.

In the course of the company's operation, Zhou Jianyong is keen to make friends with various bosses, ostensibly to sell high-tech concepts, but in fact to peddle Zhou Jiangyong's power. Some enterprises also hope to bind Zhou Jiangyong through Zhou Jianyong, so they take the "low-value high-investment" approach to buy part of the equity of Zhou Jianyong at an obviously unreasonable high price, and Zhou Jiangyong provides help for these enterprises in obtaining low-cost land and preferential policies.

During his tenure as secretary of the Hangzhou Municipal Party Committee, Zhou Jiangyong once said publicly at a meeting: "This is an era of capable officials, and this is a city that can do things." Being able to work in such an era and in such a city is the supreme glory of each of our cadres and a major test for each of our cadres. Ironically, he himself didn't stand the test.

The "ShangguanHe" combing found that with the arrest of Zhou Jiangyong, 4 of the 25 "tigers" who fell last year have been arrested, 7 "tigers" have been prosecuted, 5 "tigers" have been tried, and one "tiger" has been sentenced.
