Shanghai tycoon Zhou Zhengyi

life - Rich, but not always glorious

Shanghai tycoon Zhou Zhengyi was on Sunday again arrested, shortly after he finished a three-year sentence, reports CNN. The very rich have a tendency of getting into trouble. China Digital Times translated (from Ye Kuangzheng's blog) a list of 50 rich Chinese who saw themselves in a less glorious position. Mr. Zhou is no.5 on this list, focusing on the period of 1990 till 2004.
The lowest has a capital of 20 million Renminbi, so perhaps I should try and stay under that figure. Or perhaps people who earn so little still get into problems, but are not interesting for the media anymore.
