The corrupt official Ye Shuyang who had dreamed of pocketing 60 million yuan has found himself in jail, after his illegal proceeds reached 34 million yuan.
He reportedly had the goal of "leaving 20 million yuan to his son and 20 million yuan to his daughter and son-in-law, with another 20 million for himself to spend his remaining years in comfort".
Other than the corruption, he was known for his hard personal struggles to move upwards. Some media have done a thorough inquiry about his past history and how people around him have perceived him.
