An official in Ningxia regards playing golf as a hobby, and he is on the court on weekdays and rest days.
Wang Jian, male, born in October 1960, joined the work in September 1977 and joined the Communist Party of China (CPC) in December 1986. He used to be deputy director of Lingwu Mining Bureau of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, deputy general manager and director of Lingzhou Coal Industry Group Co., Ltd., member and vice president of the Party Committee of Ningxia Coal Industry Group Co., Ltd., deputy secretary, director and general manager of the Party Committee of Shenhua Ningxia Coal Industry Group Co., Ltd., deputy secretary and chairman of the Party Committee of Shenhua Ningxia Coal Industry Group Co., Ltd., deputy secretary and deputy director of the Party Working Committee of Ningdong Energy and Chemical Industry Base of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, and deputy secretary and deputy director (director level) of the Party Committee of the Autonomous Region Economic and Information Technology Committee. In October 2017
On October 8, 2019, with the approval of the main leaders of the Party Committee of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, the Autonomous Region Supervisory Committee filed an investigation on Wang Jian’s alleged serious violation of the law and took lien measures. On March 3, 2020, Wang Jian’s party organization relationship was transferred from Chaoyang District, Beijing to Chong ‘an Community Party Committee of Fenghuang North Street Party Working Committee in xingqing district, Yinchuan City. On March 6, the Commission for Discipline Inspection of the Autonomous Region filed a case review on Wang Jian’s alleged serious violation of discipline. On July 8, 2020, Wang Jian was expelled from the Party by the Commission for Discipline Inspection of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region. On July 17, 2020, it was transferred for review and prosecution.
On November 25th, 2020, Yinchuan Intermediate People’s Court sentenced Wang Jian to 14 years’ imprisonment for accepting bribes and fined him RMB 4 million. Recover their illegal gains and fruits according to law and turn them over to the state treasury. Wang Jian refused to accept the appeal. On April 19, 2021, the Higher People’s Court of the Autonomous Region ruled that the appeal was dismissed and the original judgment was upheld.
"Mr. Wang, you are in good shape today. How many more shots?"
"Good!"
"Awesome, mr.wong, then look at my project …"
"No problem, don’t worry!"
The day before he was detained, Wang Jian also made an appointment with a "friend" to swing at a golf course in Yinchuan, and even promised to fight for the project for the "friend". However, the next day, Wang Jian received a notice from the Supervision Committee of the Autonomous Region Commission for Discipline Inspection asking him to explain the situation. At this time, he was still lucky. "I thought I had resigned, and it should be nothing. I thought I would make it clear earlier and come out for a few more games. I didn’t expect …"
During the investigation, Wang Jian was indifferent to the mistakes he had made, and made many "grievances" for himself: "I have participated in many warning education before, and I feel that I am relatively honest compared with those people, and my contribution to Ningmei is not small, and there is nothing wrong with it. It is quite wronged to just’ come in’."
With the gradual deepening of investigation and evidence collection, Wang Jian was shocked when the facts of violation of discipline and law were placed in front of him. "I can’t believe this is me?" I am greedy for pleasure, corrupt and degenerate, and I have received so much money and done so many bad things. I have already fallen into the abyss of illegal crimes, but I am insensitive, sad and hateful. "
"Wang Jian grew up to be a leading cadre at the department level at the age of 36. He worked in Shenhua Ningmei Group for more than ten years until he became the deputy secretary and chairman of the party Committee of the group. His problems mainly occurred during this period." The case-handling personnel told the reporter that Wang Jian mistakenly thought that the cadres of state-owned enterprises could "be special" and "be flexible". He had been out of the organization for a long time, relying on enterprises to eat enterprises, being arrogant and extravagant, and eventually became a "moth" with political deterioration, economic greed, moral degeneration and corruption in life. The lesson was very profound.
I yearn for a luxurious and enjoyable life, mingle with my boss, and take pride in being able to "calling friends" at any time.
"I was very smooth all the way." During his detention, Wang Jian often talked about his past. "During my school days, I was recognized as a good student. After joining the work, I quickly joined the Communist Party of China (CPC) because of my love of learning, hard work and strong business ability. I was very good in the minds of comrades and the organization recognized me. I basically didn’t encounter any obstacles in promotion. "
In 2006, Shenhua Group reorganized the former Ningxia Coal Industry Group Company and established Shenhua Ningxia Coal Industry Group Company. Wang Jian was appointed as the deputy secretary of the Party Committee and director of the board of directors of the group company and became the first general manager. In November 2007, Wang Jian was appointed as Deputy Secretary and Chairman of the Party Committee of Shenhua Ningmei Group.
"Shenhua Ningmei is known as the’ eldest son of industry’ in Ningxia. As its helm, this is the highlight moment of Wang Jian’s career. In 2008, he was awarded the’ Outstanding Professional and Technical Talents Award with Outstanding Contributions’ by the autonomous region. " The case handler said.
However, Wang Jian, who has these auras, gradually forgot the initial mission of communist party people, and his thoughts slipped into the abyss.
"My transformation began with relaxing and avoiding political study." Wang Jian analyzed himself. At the beginning of joining the party, he felt that it was sacred and glorious to participate in organizational life. He actively participated in political theory study and strengthened his party spirit cultivation. However, after taking the leadership position, his thoughts gradually slackened, and he often used the busy business as an excuse to escape from organizational life. "I don’t want to sit with you and take part in political studies as an ordinary party member, becoming a’ special party member’ outside the organization." Wang Wei said.
After revisiting the oath of joining the party and studying the party rules and regulations of party constitution, Wang Jian said frankly: "The study in the detention room is the most comprehensive and devoted political study since I became a leading cadre."
Abandoning the "True Classics" of communist party people, Wang Jian became spiritually empty and enterprising, and his world outlook, outlook on life and values began to distort. He often compares with bosses, and feels that he is not worse than bosses worth tens of millions and hundreds of millions in ability, but his life is far from being balanced. "It’s hard to hold on to the world like a heart, and it’s hard to dye the world like a desire." Since I have a thief in my heart, I have greed and selfishness. " Wang Jian said, "I envy the lifestyle of bosses. I am happy to eat, drink and have fun with them. I think this is the life I want." He is keen on building social circle, friends circle and life circle, and he is proud of being able to "calling friends" at any time because there are thousands of contact information in his mobile phone address book.
Unbalanced in heart and lost in faith, Wang Jian alienated power into a tool to establish personal relationships. He believes that "as long as I establish relationships, then your coming and going will be human communication, not abuse power for personal gain." Under the patient education of the case-handling personnel, he suddenly repented. "The personal relationship built by power is actually a heavy shackle. If I don’t spend all my time thinking about gaining a job, I will not tie myself up and get stuck in the mud. I understand it too late."
From rejection to small receipt, the frequency is not high, the amount is large, the number of targets is small, and the company relies on enterprises to collect more than 60 million yuan.
After the establishment of the "circle of contacts", under the guise of enhancing feelings and maintaining relationships, Wang Jian often eats, drinks, ties up personal affairs, and engages in power rent-seeking. "People’s greed is slowly expanding, and so is Wang Jian. He didn’t accept money at first. It can be said that his corruption has gone through the process of refusing to accept, receiving small and receiving big." The case handler said.
Before serving as the chairman of Shenhua Ningmei Group, Wang Jian had rejected some gifts from his boss. However, after rejecting it, he felt "lost", sorry and unwilling.
Gradually, on the question of whether to accept or not, and how to accept it, he found a little doorway and formed a set of "principles"-only accepting money from old subordinates who are reliable, assured and intersect with himself. Later, it gradually evolved into locking key targets, showing the characteristics of "low frequency, large amount, few objects and heavy hands".
"On the road of Wang Jian’s corruption, there are two big fish that have to be mentioned. One is Wang Moumou, the actual controller of a joint-stock company in Beijing, and the other is Xiao Moumou, the legal representative of a company in Ningxia." The case handler said.
"My company will be listed soon. I will give you some shares to ensure high returns after listing." In May, 2009, in order to thank Wang Jian for helping his company to undertake several engineering projects such as water treatment system of methanol project of Shenhua Ningmei Group, Wang offered to transfer the original shares of his company to Wang Jian, and Wang Jian was very appreciative of this. "He is a very grateful person, and he is also rigorous in doing things. Let me not come forward by myself. It is best to find a relative to’ buy’ and hold it for him."
Since then, Wang Jian has arranged for his wife and brother Zhang to "buy" 500,000 original shares of the company for 1.5 million yuan and register them under Zhang’s name. In order to be more "safe", Wang Jian arranged for Zhang and Wang to sign a false share withdrawal agreement, stipulating that Wang would return Zhang’s share capital of 1.5 million yuan and interest of 100,000 yuan, while Zhang would return his shares, but neither party actually returned them. In July 2014, Wang arranged to sell all the shares held by Zhang, with a profit of 43.11 million yuan.
"I knew the profit of the stock at the first time, but I was a public official at that time, so I had to put it away first, thinking that I would have a chance to get it back later." Wang Wei said. Until January 2019, after resigning from public office for more than a year, Wang Yifang got back 17 million yuan from Wang Moumou.
"Compared with Wang Moumou, Xiao Moumou is a half’ housekeeper’ of Wang Jian. Over the years, he has taken care of Wang Jian’s family in every possible way and has been extraordinarily generous." The case handler said. In January 2011, in order to thank Wang Jian for helping his company to undertake projects for many times, Xiao Moumou invested 10 million yuan to buy shares of a company for Wang Jian, and agreed that Xiao Moumou would find someone to hold the shares, and the proceeds would go to Wang Jian. Usually, everything in Wang Jian’s family, big and small, Xiao Moumou will also give help in time. Wang Jian is very appreciative of it. All the related projects of Shenhua Ningmei Group will be contracted by Xiao Moumou first, and even personally make suggestions for its investment and operation, which has become a veritable "official and business family".
In December 2015, Wang Jian served as deputy secretary and deputy director of the Party Group of the Autonomous Region Economic and Information Committee. Less than two years later, he voluntarily resigned from public office. In this regard, Wang Jian explained: "When I was the chairman of Shenhua Ningmei, I called for rain and did whatever I wanted. After I arrived at the Economic and Information Committee, I was assigned to a deputy position, and I felt a great gap. At this time, a friend invited me to work in their company, so I just wanted to resign. "
"In fact, Wang Jian resigned mainly to reap the benefits of the stocks he received during his tenure." The case handler told the reporter, "He has been looking for opportunities to get back more than 40 million yuan deposited in Wang Moumou."
Wang Jian deliberately took hidden means to accept other people’s property in order to avoid censorship and investigation. However, all this was in vain. After investigation, Wang Jian took advantage of his position to seek benefits for others in engineering project contracting, coal resources integration agreement signing, project payment, equipment and materials procurement, etc., and illegally accepted bribes from relevant units and individuals, amounting to 60.42 million yuan, of which, the total amount of property received by the Party after the 18th National Congress was 44.22 million yuan.
During his tenure as the chairman of Shenhua Ningmei Group, Wang Jian repeatedly talked about honesty and dedication at the conference. Many cadres respected him and even regarded him as an example of diligence and honesty. Under the stage, however, he abused power for personal gain, amassed wealth, tried every means to cover up his greedy behavior, and acted as a two-faced person. He repented: "I am very ashamed, not only ashamed, but also difficult to sleep at night. As soon as I close my eyes, those things I have done will emerge one by one, which is too torture, very regretful and very sad."
I am addicted to playing golf, and arrange a subordinate enterprise to use public funds to buy golf membership cards for personal use, and I will be on the golf course on weekdays and rest days.
From illegal eating and drinking to accepting gifts, shares and property, from entering and leaving high-end clubs to pursuing luxury, Wang Jian’s hedonism, which plays with bosses, is growing day by day, leading to a crooked road of arrogance, extravagance and wanton indulgence.
In November 2012, Wang Jian arranged for a subordinate enterprise to use public funds to purchase a golf membership card of 500,000 yuan, which was said to be used for official reception. "It is said that it is an official reception, which is basically used by me." Wang Jian said frankly, "After I first came into contact with golf, I was fascinated by it and became an’ addict’." When the organization explicitly requested that the unit’s golf membership card must be sealed and handed in, he concealed it and used it for a long time, and thought that only golf was in line with his identity.
"I have always regarded playing golf as elegant, and I feel that this sport can only be played by a few rich people, and as a leading cadre, I should enjoy this elegant sport. At first, I played in Yinchuan, but later it spread all over the country and even abroad. The stadium has also become a place for power trading. " Wang Wei said.
In order to play golf, Wang Jian is willing to be "hunted". No matter whether he buys expensive equipment or spends a lot of money on the golf course, there are always people who like it, and he also readily accepts it.
According to the relevant personnel of Shenhua Ningmei Group, Wang Jian can always be seen on the court, whether on working days or on rest days. In the swing again and again, Wang Jian’s feelings with the bosses are "close", but his feelings with the cadres and workers of the enterprise are "far". Wang Jian, who only has power and benefit in his heart, perfunctory his work, deviated from the masses and "retreated" to the edge of the cliff step by step.
After resigning from public office, in order to fill the spiritual emptiness, Wang Jian became more keen on playing golf, and his specific relationship, Xue Mou, bought a golf membership card for him in Beijing for his long-term use.
"There were many people who came to me to play after I resigned. At first, I thought I had a good relationship with them. Later, I slowly found out that they were interested in the contacts and influence I had accumulated in Ningmei for so many years and wanted to take some projects. I am still a little complacent about this. I feel that someone is still looking for it, which proves that I am valuable. " Wang Jian analyzed himself. However, all this will eventually become a thing of the past.
"My father named me’ frugal’ because he wanted me to be thrifty, hard-working and simple all my life, but I just went from frugality to luxury and became a’ king luxury’." Wang Jian, who signed the decision on disciplinary action, trembled with his hands and burst into tears. "I failed my father’s good intentions."
Unauthorized, many people in the group are still bent on finding ways and relationships in an attempt to excuse their "small circle"
Wang Jian pursues extravagant enjoyment in life, but he is arbitrary in his work, posing as a "parent" and even overstepping his authority. He said frankly: "The organization appointed me as the deputy secretary to take charge of administrative work under the leadership of the group party Committee, but under my’ control’, it became the chairman who directly led the work of the party Committee and was above the organization."
"Go and deal with it and put out the fire." In 2010, the main leader of a coal mine under Shenhua Ningmei Group was investigated by the procuratorate for illegal crimes. Wang Jian, then the chairman of the group, not only did not actively cooperate with the investigation, but instead instructed his subordinates to find ways and trust relationships, making it a minor matter.
In 2013, several mine managers of the group were investigated for accepting bribes and were sanctioned by law. Afterwards, a leader of the procuratorate warned Wang Jian, "If you can treat it correctly and stop bad style earlier, this will not happen." However, Wang Jian disagreed. "The social atmosphere is like this. These are just accidental events." Some people suggested that he should carry out warning education in the group and learn from the case, but Wang Jian, who is proud and conceited, scoffed at this. He was convinced that as long as he had a wide network of contacts and was cautious, there would be no problem. "fish begins to stink at the head, I’m also breaking the law, and I’m more courageous, so I didn’t care about their criminal behavior at all, and the atmosphere of the whole group was getting worse and worse, and finally water under the bridge." Wang Wei said.
In 2014, the Central Leading Group for Inspection Work visited Shenhua Ningmei Group, and many middle-level cadres of the group were investigated and jailed on suspicion of accepting bribes. Group cadres have been dismissed one after another, but Wang Jian still doesn’t realize the seriousness of the problem, let alone that the root of the problem lies in himself. He still goes his own way, trying to solve the problem with his "personal connections" and excusing his "small circle", which has seriously damaged the political ecology of the enterprise.
In dealing with the supervision and management of the autonomous region and the superior Shenhua Group Company, Wang Jian is tricky on both sides and evades supervision. "Although Ningmei has the autonomous region and Shenhua tube, the management is relatively lax. When I report to the autonomous region, I will talk about the progress of the current project and the achievements of the work; When Shenhua reports the work, it will say that the autonomous region supports our work and emphasize that the management in the region is very strict with us. In fact, both sides don’t care much about me, and I have taken advantage of it. "
"Wang Jian’s case is a typical case of corruption in state-owned enterprises in our region. The main reasons for the continuous spread of style and corruption in this field are that the supervision is tangible and the power restriction is weak." The case handler said, "Only by effectively restricting and supervising the operation of power can we grasp the key to resisting corruption."
Looking at Wang Jian’s serious violations of discipline and law, he almost never bypassed the word "power": with the increase of power, fewer people can supervise themselves and begin to be arrogant; With the increase of power, there are more rich people around, and they have started trading power and money; When the power is big, the pockets are bulging, and they start to behave like dogs and horses, until they oppress people with power and monopolize power, destroying the political ecology of the unit. Taking the case as a mirror, to implement effective supervision of state-owned enterprises, it is necessary to strengthen the incorruptible system cage, promote state-owned enterprises to improve the modern enterprise system, strengthen the supervision of the "number one", and correct the deviation for the operation of power. The case also warned the leading cadres in party member to build a strong ideological defense line, adhere to the fair use of power, use power according to law, and keep the bottom line of honesty, so as not to repeat the mistakes made by Wang Jian.
Wang Jian’s Confession (Excerpt)
Through reflection, I deeply realized the seriousness of my mistake. The organization had placed great hopes on me, but I didn’t cherish the power given by the organization to work well for the party, abuse my power, seek personal gain for myself and others, and fell into a corrupt element. I learn from this painful experience and reflect on my mistakes. As a negative example, I will warn others and always warn myself.
"frugality and luxury" "frugality" is a name given to me by my father, which bears a deep historical imprint when I was born. 1960 was the most difficult period of natural disasters in the country for three years. According to my mother, the living allowance given to her by the unit for confinement when I was born was 8 kg of carrots. I was born on this carrot. My father hopes that I can be thrifty, hard-working and plain living all my life. However, I just changed from frugality to luxury, and became a "king luxury". I was greedy for enjoyment and arrogant and extravagant, which completely failed my father’s good intentions. It is the initial intention of forgetting "frugality" that becomes "luxury", and with greed and selfishness, it leads to crime.
"elegance and vulgarity" What is elegance? What is vulgarity? Different classes have different standards of judgment. As far as sports are concerned, there is no distinction between elegance and vulgarity in different ways of fitness, but a sport is only controlled by a few rich people and becomes a place for trading power and money. After being crowned with the image of luxury and corruption in the hearts of ordinary people, there will be a difference between elegance and vulgarity. As the chairman of a state-owned enterprise, I often swing freely on the golf course with my bosses, which has caused a bad influence among the cadres and workers of the enterprise. Obviously, I am no longer a public servant who serves the people wholeheartedly, but a high-ranking official, which has become vulgar. Always caring for the people, sharing weal and woe with the people and doing one’s best are the most elegant public servants in the hearts of the people.
"Keep and give up". Do not forget your initiative mind, keep in mind the mission, that is, "keep". If the initial heart is easy to get and it is always difficult to keep, we must always maintain lofty revolutionary ideals and strong revolutionary fighting spirit. To keep the spiritual home of hard work and tenacious struggle for the reform and development of state-owned enterprises, we must give up selfish distractions of coveting enjoyment and seeking benefits for a few people and ourselves. However, I am keen on establishing personal relationships, giving them help by using power and seeking personal gain. Being friends with you is not because of your good personality, but because of your good power, the essence of which is trading power and money. How can there be any real emotional friendship? I accepted the "benefits" of others, and I have long spurned you in my heart. The personal relationship built by power is by no means one’s own personal capital, but the shackles that weave one’s own cocoon. If you put all your energy into your work and always plan the development of the enterprise and the interests of the workers and the masses, you will never fall into the abyss of violating discipline and law.
"Gain and loss". As a party member, we should treat personal gains and losses correctly, think more about the heroes who have sacrificed for the cause of the Party and the people, and compare them with model workers, so that we can realize the life value of communist party people without being disturbed by selfishness, tired of fame and fortune, confused by material desires, indifferent to fame and fortune, self-denial and dedication to public service. As a leader of a state-owned enterprise, the organization has given me high honor and treatment. I should compare my own gains and losses with the employees of the enterprise, think more about the miners’ brothers who are struggling underground, solve more practical difficulties for them, share more worries for them and work harder. However, compared with the bosses in the society, I feel that I have paid more and got less than them, and the more unbalanced I am, I began to think about comparing and imitating, and I tried to find a way out for myself, abusing power for personal gain. In the end, I compared myself to the high wall and lost everything.
Self-discipline and heteronomy. Self-discipline is the internal cause, heteronomy is the external cause, and the external cause can only work by internal cause. Without a strict sense of self-discipline, no matter how strict heteronomy is, supervision will not be in place. As the top leader of state-owned enterprises, we must realize the importance and particularity of our posts and constantly enhance our sense of self-discipline. As the deputy secretary of the Party Committee of the Group, it is difficult for me to maintain the supervision of my superiors. Often, when my superiors go to the unit to inspect the work, investigate and study, participate in democratic life meetings and organize life meetings, it is difficult for team members to criticize me and point out their own shortcomings. Within the team, without a good democratic atmosphere, I can’t communicate honestly with the team members as an ordinary party member, and always put on a high leadership posture. How can comrades give me well-intentioned and pertinent criticism and point out my shortcomings! If you don’t strengthen your political study, you can’t often examine, analyze and reflect on yourself ideologically and politically, and your sense of self-discipline will gradually fade away, becoming a special party member without any constraints, and it is inevitable to break through the bottom line of discipline and commit crimes.
Although I am about to leave the embrace of the party organization, the help and education given by the organization in the indwelling room is enough for me to enjoy the rest of my life. In the future, I will still be strict with myself according to party member’s standards, take my ideals and beliefs as my spiritual pillar, make up for everything I have lost, and always be in awe and grateful. Accept reform, turn over a new leaf …
