What is the concept of 3.7 billion? Even if it costs 200,000 a day, it will take five hundred years to spend it. And some people can easily win 3.7 billion by virtue of their positions. He is Bai Enpei. When the discipline inspectors seized one of the villas under Bai Enpei's assets, the value of jewelry and jewelry alone was nearly 3.7 billion! And who the hell is he? And how can you make so much money?
As the "three major secretaries" of the provincial party committee, Bai Enpei's life can be described as ups and downs. When he was young, he was loyal, and everyone was full of praise when they saw him; In middle age, he would moisten his eyes for the hard work of the peasant woman; In the end, he was given a suspended death sentence at the age of 70 for corruption.
Diligent and hardworking, loyal and incorruptible
Bai Enpei, born in September 1946 in Qingjian, Shaanxi, came from a revolutionary family that produced four provincial party secretaries, and his father's generation made meritorious achievements, and in the era when everyone did not have enough to eat, he could enjoy excellent education and a prosperous life.
Bai Enpei was intelligent and motivated from an early age, and in 1965, he was admitted to the Department of Navigation Equipment and Automatic Control of Northwestern Polytechnical University and became a senior intellectual.
In 1970, Bai Enpei graduated from university and joined Yan'an Diesel Engine Oil Factory two years later, and his career officially began.
In 1972, when the diesel plant was in ruins, life was difficult and conditions were extremely poor, and Bai Enpei became deputy director from the dispatcher of the workshop for only two years. In the next nine years, Bai Enpei worked hard and finally stood out among several college students with similar starting points, accumulated rich management experience, and served as the director of the diesel engine factory and the deputy secretary of the party committee.
In 1983, he served as the director of the cigarette factory and the deputy secretary of the party committee. At that time, he was loyal and honest, down-to-earth and kind to people. Not only young and capable, but also very scarce senior intellectuals,
In the early eighties, when the country's cadres were younger, many young factory directors with enterprise backgrounds, education, and other skills were selected as "third-echelon" training targets to serve in party committees and governments at all levels. Bai Enpei was honored to be selected.
In 1985, Bai Enpei was promoted to the secretary of the prefectural party committee, and Bai Enpei has since become the focus of organizational training and attention. In 1987 Chinese New Year's Eve Bai Enpei was elected as an alternate member of the Central Committee, becoming one of the youngest alternate members of the Central Committee at that time.
In 1990, at the end of the eighteen-year Yan'an period, Bai Enpei left Yan'an to become a member of the Standing Committee of the Party Committee and Minister of Organization of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. From youth to middle age, he finally entered the threshold of deputy provincial cadres by relying on his outstanding personal ability.
Do not resist temptation and actively repent
In 2001, the corruption case of Li Jiating, governor of Yunnan Province, had a final result, and when Li Jiating was in office, he used his position to cooperate with his son to embezzle nearly 20 million yuan on nearly 30 occasions! At this time, Bai Enpei, who was focused on cultivation by the organization, was ordered in danger. In October 2001, Bai Enpei became party secretary of Yunnan Province, and it was here that his road to corruption officially began.
Ironically, shortly after taking office, Bai Enpei pointed out at the seventh party congress of the Yunnan provincial party committee that the impact of Li Jiating's case was very bad. Bai Enpei said: "If corruption is not eliminated, it is difficult for the cause to prosper." "It is really outrageous that he is holding high the banner of anti-corruption like this, but he is crazy to accumulate wealth under the mask of integrity and honesty he has created!
Being in a high position will inevitably encounter temptations large and small, and in the social environment at that time, corruption was common, and Bai Enpei was not only a representative of it, but also extremely clever in his means of collecting wealth.
After taking charge of Yunnan, Bai Enpei took the lead in implementing the first strategy "big", and he argued that for Yunnan, which was at the bottom of the country in terms of GDP at that time, rapid development was one of the best ways to reform. Bai Enpei put forward the principle that rapid development is the first priority, which should be preceded by everything, above all else, and more important than everything.
Under this policy, Yunnan Province was rapidly reformed, and a number of real estate development groups invested a lot of money in construction, at which time Bai Enpei came into contact with a large number of private entrepreneurs. They drove luxury cars and lived in luxury houses, which played a crucial role in Bai Enpei's career transformation.
Bai Enpei mentioned in his Confession:
After working at the deputy ministerial level and above for more than 20 years, and the main ministerial level post for more than 10 years, I thought that I would finally do this job. When you are young, you work hard, conscientiously and discipline yourself. Thinking about benefiting the people, I really didn't expect that when I was old, I would relax my requirements for myself. As the position rises, the more things I see, the temptation increases, and the influence of the surrounding environment, I consider my own situation more and more, and the more I live, the more selfish I am.
After 2005, he had a serious illness. At the age of nearly 60, at this time, his position can contact a lot of rights, and his thoughts are directly anchored. I gave up some bottom lines in my heart, pursued material money, and coveted pleasure. In particular, the more private entrepreneurs I know, the more I have the ability to be closely related to their prosperity, and naturally I receive a lot of flattery and economic dealings. When you reach out to them, you can see the luxurious big houses they live in, as well as cool cars, and many of them even have their own private jets. As soon as the heart of comparison comes up, the thought is over.
At first, I just wanted to let go a little, but I didn't expect that the back became bigger and bigger, and I had more of it, and I was even more afraid of losing. The more power he has in his hands, the flatter the road ahead seems to be, so the drier and bigger, and now looking back, he almost can't remember his original self.
Now if you think about it, in fact, in that era of extreme material scarcity, my own annual income can be hundreds of thousands, which is already a lot of money, more than enough to meet my own needs. Moreover, my lover is the leader of a central enterprise, and his annual income can be hundreds of thousands, and the income of the two of us is definitely at the forefront of most people's families. But once people are greedy, they will be blinded by something, reason is gone, pursuit is gone, ideals are gone, moral bottom line is gone, and they really can't even stand the bottom line of being a person. Even the red line of the law was touched.
I regret that I have not only lost my ideals, but also my original self. Once the trust that the organization has placed in me for so many years has been destroyed by me, the provincial party secretary who once spent so much energy and resources to train me has now become like this.
"The losses I have brought to the party organization are too great."
3.7 billion and crazy pressing
Even if Bai Enpei's confession is deafening, it is still as light as a feather. When Bai Enpei was in office, he did too many acts of wanton wealth, and in the process of the development of Yunnan Province, whoever gave more money Bai Enpei took a fancy to whoever opened up his own economic channel. Bai Enpei used to be honest and honest on the surface, but in fact, he secretly let his wife Zhang Huiqing collect money behind his back. Want to get promoted? Yes, the price is clearly marked, and you can get as much rights as you pay.
As his power and money status continued to consolidate, Bai Enpei gradually greedy for pleasure and ignored discipline. He loved to play golf, so not only did he negotiate a lot of shady business on the golf course, but he also built a lot of golf courses. In the more than ten years that Bai Enpei served in Yunnan, the golf industry developed rapidly, and under the background of the General Office of the State Council and the Ministry of Land and Resources "three orders and five declarations" strictly prohibiting the construction of new golf courses, at least 12 golf courses were built in the area under the jurisdiction of Kunming City, each course covering an area of no less, even thousands of acres.
Not only that, Bai Enpei also likes to drink. Entrepreneurs, officials, and others who had postponed the provincial standing committee because of alcoholism, and who carried out economic exchanges with Bai Enpei, also added a lot of income to Bai Enpei by sending valuable wine.
And Bai Enpei's corrupt behavior is not only his personal act of accumulating wealth, his officials saw the collusion between officials and businessmen, from poverty to great wealth, but only the difference between changing the front, and they could not withstand the temptation to join Bai Enpei's banner. A large number of officials ignored the organization and discipline, obeyed the orders of Bai Enpei, the "emperor of the soil", undermined the social atmosphere, and caused indelible impact and incalculable losses to the economy, society and culture.
From the banner of anti-corruption to the banner of wanton enrichment, from loyalty to corruption, Bai Enpei's career path ended with a lifetime in prison. No amount of repentance at the end of life can cover up the major mistakes you have made.
No matter how much value a person creates, he cannot violate laws and regulations, and law is the lowest line that restricts human nature. When the red line of the law is touched, no matter how much good has been done in the past, it will disappear in an instant.
In the face of temptation, you can't control your bottom line and amplify your desires. Ignoring the law for personal gain, knowing the law and breaking the law, has caused extremely serious harm to society. On the road to anti-corruption, we have always had a long way to go, among which there are far more than Bai Enpei alone, and there are many social moths hidden under their fictional mask of kindness, which is difficult to discover. And Zhou Benshun is such a person.
The annual salary of a nanny for a pet turtle is million, and he lives in an 800-square-meter villa
Zhou Benshun was born in February 1953 in Yupu, Hunan Province. He graduated from Wuhan University and was investigated in 2015 when he was the secretary of the Hebei Provincial Party Committee and chairman of the Standing Committee of the Provincial People's Congress, and it was only then that people learned what "outrageous" things he had done over the years.
Zhou Benshun and Bai Enpei's origin is not the same, Zhou Benshun was born in a cold family, there are three older brothers in the family, he is free and intelligent, since he was a child, when the difficulties in the family were he worked hard, hoping to change his fate through reading, so that his family and friends could live a good life. In 2003, he stepped into the center by himself and was greatly respected by the organization, but this should be the story of the inspirational hero boy who counterattacked, and in the face of a large amount of wealth that he had never seen, he chose to fall.
After becoming the secretary of the Hebei Provincial Party Committee, he amassed a lot of money and lived an extremely luxurious daily life. The ordinary villa has even been forgotten by Zhou Benshun, and he chose to live in a two-story small building of more than 800 square meters in a certain military region that was renovated with poverty alleviation funds allocated by the state.
The eating habits of Hebei and Hunan are very different, and Zhou Ben specially invited two Hunan masters to cook for himself. He loves turtles very much, because he is afraid that he will not take good care, he specially hired a full-time nanny for the baby turtle to take care of, and after investigation, this nanny's annual income is nearly one million!
Zhou Benshun used his position to ostensibly refuse to "give gifts" from others, while his wife and son received money behind their backs.
Not only that, but he also engaged in superstitious activities. Do not respect the common people who pay taxes according to the law, but respect the ethereal ghosts and gods. Zhou Benshun set up Buddhist halls and shrines in many residences, and after the death of his pet turtle, he copied scriptures by hand and buried it with the turtle.
In the interview, he confessed that he hated corrupt officials the most in his life, but he did not expect to become corrupt officials in the end, which is inevitably embarrassing. In the long river of life, no matter what profession you are engaged in, what path you take, temptation is essential, many detours in life look clean and tidy and full of color than the right path, but detours are detours after all, and many things in the world have no shortcuts.
Don't forget your original intention. I hope that everyone here can also keep this firmly in mind, according to the direction of the original intention, can refuse temptation, do not look down at how muddy the road they are walking, raise their heads and chests, abide by the law and morality, and get everything they expect reasonably and legally.
