    Three consecutive Yunnan China Tobacco general managers fall; former deputy general manager Gu Bo accused of over 350 million yuan in bribes

    At 'Yunyan' producer Yunnan China Tobacco, seven current or former senior executives fell within a year and a half: former general manager Zhou Tao voluntarily surrendered in 2022 and was accused of accepting an especially huge amount in bribes; former general managers Zhang Shuichang and Zhu Shaoming (investigated two years after retirement) also fell; former deputy general manager Gu Bo was accused of taking over 350 million yuan in bribes and stood trial in January 2024. A key anti-corruption case in the tobacco system.
