Actress's Earrings and Father's Actions Under Scrutiny

A joint working group in Ya'an, Sichuan Province, released findings regarding an investigation into a Chinese actress, Huang Yangtiantian, and the source of her wealth. Public attention was drawn to the case after the actress posted photos from her coming-of-age ceremony on social media. The focus of the investigation was on the expensive earrings she wore.

The earrings were alleged by some to be from a luxury brand, with an estimated official price of around 2.3 million yuan. This sparked speculation about the actress's wealth, particularly due to her father's former position as a government official in Ya'an. Some netizens suggested that her father might have been involved in the embezzlement of post-disaster reconstruction funds following the Ya'an earthquake.

The investigation, conducted by a working group composed of various departments, began after these concerns arose. The group initially confirmed that the actress's father was not involved in any bidding, fund approval, or donation processes related to post-disaster reconstruction during his time in Ya'an. However, the investigation uncovered other potential violations.

The latest findings revealed that the earrings were a gift and were replicas. Testing confirmed the earrings were made of glass. Further investigation showed no record of purchases from the luxury brand by the actress, her mother, or their relatives.

The investigation also determined that neither the actress nor her mother's households are currently registered in Sichuan, and no family members hold public servant positions. The actress's father did not handle any post-disaster reconstruction projects, funds, or donations during his time in Ya'an, nor did he profit from any other means. The companies registered by the actress and her mother did not engage in commercial activities in Ya'an.

The investigation did find that the actress's father illegally set up a company and received a profit of 30,000 yuan. The supervisory authority confiscated the illegal income. Since he has resigned, no administrative penalties will be imposed. Furthermore, the investigation revealed that the actress's father intentionally concealed the birth of a second child during his recruitment and employment. However, due to his resignation and changes in relevant policies, no further action can be taken regarding the second child or the concealment.
