If a billionaire is in actual trouble, he’s in China. US would have bailed out Evergrande.
I have pretty severe concerns about how the Chinese government operates, but this is one thing they do right.
Imagine living in a country where the rich are actually subject to the laws like everyone else…
Gee it sure sucks that Evergrande collapsed. What a horrible sign for the Chinese economy!
he was investigated over suspected “illegal crimes”
Are there any legal crimes you guys know of that I can try?

Anything with a fine you can easily pay.
Chinese do not fool around. I expect they will make an example of this guy.
Based. Wish that were us; we’ve got OODLES of real estate clowns who need to be shoved in a Brazen
Sucks to suck. This guy should be OK though, based on the CCPs history of fair trials and lenient sentencing.
Uh-huh: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incarceration_in_the_United_States
The United States has the largest known prison population in the world, it has 5% of the world’s population, and 20% of the world’s incarcerated persons. China, with four times more inhabitants, has less persons in prison.
Uh-huh:

As in previous years, execution totals do not include the estimated thousands of executions carried out by the world’s leading executioner, China, where execution data is considered a state secret; …
Like, a whole lot of secret state executions, pinky swear. 😂
As in, you doubt that people get executed in China?
Or
They do, but the numbers are inflated?
I’m just not sure what you’re trying to say.
I don’t doubt it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capital_punishment_in_China
Although most death sentences are “with reprieve,” which seldom lead to execution: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_sentence_with_reprieve
All of those are on the public record.
What I’m saying is: where is their evidence for an “estimated thousands of executions carried out” that are secret?
So you’re going with wilful ignorance. Neat.
Name a country that executes more people per year than China does.
Actually, since you can’t do that, don’t worry about it.
Anyhoo, they’ll execute him.
