Playing tricks in the confessions of corrupt officials argues that lovers are mostly influenced by decadent life in the West.
CCTV News:"I have violated the law and discipline, but the Party will always be the red sun in my heart, shining me to the end of my life" … … This passage comes from a confession of a corrupt official published in the China discipline inspection and supervision newspaper recently.
Confessions are written by the examinees on the basis of systematically sorting out their own mistakes and deeply reflecting on their ideological roots. They record the changing course of the examinees’ ideological understanding and have a strong warning and educational function. However, the confessions of some fallen cadres are a mere formality, routine expression and ironic content, and they do not deeply analyze the real causes of their own corruption. If you don’t look at the title of the article, you really can’t see that this is repentance.
High-profile achievements: the contribution of the table accounts for almost half of the confessions.
Zhang Shuguang, former deputy chief engineer of the Ministry of Railways, said in his confession that "we have worked in hundreds of factories, thousands of engineers and tens of thousands of employees for seven years, forming China’s own high-speed railway system".
Shi Lianwen, the former director of Liaoning Radio and Television Station, also made a high-profile statement in the confession, "doing a lot of great things that no one else has done" and "the reform of Liaoning Radio and Television Station has become a banner of the same industry in the country".

Shang Xiaoxuan, former director of the Standing Committee of the People’s Congress in Qixian County, Henan Province, was arrested for accepting bribes. "Diligence in my work has earned me the respect of the members of the county team and made me recognized by the local people." Talking about one’s political achievements like this accounts for almost half of the confession materials. He also recalled such a past event: "After the Spring Festival in 2013, someone found my residence with a gift, which I refused. As a result, as soon as I went to work after the Spring Festival, I heard people talking about it, saying that there was an unkind person in our county ‘ Strange old man ’ 。” In the end, he blamed his loose thinking on "in order to improve interpersonal relationships and carry out my work better, I decided to change my style of doing things and not be straightforward."
……
All these fallen officials have one thing in common, that is, they focus on describing their "brilliant achievements" in their confessions, and it is not easy to talk about them. However, they either scratch the surface of the problem or scratch their boots. The purpose is obvious, just to show the image of "heroes making mistakes" in order to seek leniency, and the result will be a drop in the bucket.
Pass the buck: Influenced by the dross of feudal culture and the decadent lifestyle of the West.
In the confession and confession materials of zhou wenbin, the former president of Nanchang University, he wrote the following words: The idea in my bones is that when men come into the world, they must conquer the world and the women. Since women are another symbol of a man’s success, I think it’s better to develop more lovers, so as to satisfy my vanity of being a successful man. Zhou wenbin admitted that he had more opportunities to go to western countries because of academic exchanges. During the visit, I read a lot of works by major sexologists in modern and contemporary western countries, browsed a lot of pornographic websites, and participated in online chats on adult topics, experienced western sexual culture and envied the open lifestyle in the west. He attributed his corruption to "being seriously influenced by the dross of feudal culture and the decadent lifestyle of the West".

Huang Yunhua, a member of the former party group and head of the discipline inspection team of the Banan District Construction Committee in Chongqing, was arrested for accepting bribes. In his confession, he wrote that "gradually neglecting learning made me lack legal knowledge, and my luck also led me to commit crimes. Due to the extremely heavy task of urban construction in the whole region, although I am the head of the discipline inspection team, I am also in charge of a lot of administrative work. The endless work day and night has brought unprecedented tension and busyness, so the idea of strengthening study and transformation is put aside. "
Such a confession is nothing but a flattering and evasive speech after careful packaging. Their ultimate goal is to reduce their guilt, and to a large extent, they have not reflected on what they are wrong with!
Win sympathy: "I am the son of a farmer" begins with high frequency use.
Wang Zhaoyao, former deputy secretary of Anhui Provincial Party Committee, once repented that "my family has been a farmer for generations, and I am the son of a farmer".
Xu Maiyong, the former vice mayor of Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, who was sentenced to death for corruption and bribery, said in his repentance book, "I took part in agricultural production after graduating from high school at the age of 16, and I got up early in the morning and got bitten by leeches and mosquitoes, and my work was only a few cents a day."
Jane Chunlin, the former Party Secretary and Director of the Board of Directors of Hainan Supply and Marketing Cooperative Association, who won the Top Ten Outstanding Youth in the Eighth China and the Top Ten Outstanding Youth in Hainan Province, was later expelled from the Party and public office for serious violation of discipline and was put on file for review, said in his confession: "I am the son of a farmer. When I was a child, my family was very difficult and my life was very hard. I had to help my family when I came home from school on Saturday and Sunday … …”

According to the introduction of cadres engaged in discipline inspection and supervision at the grassroots level, many officials who have fallen off the horse have written down their poor origins and difficult life experiences in confessions, revealing their bitter past to the public, which is not only due to painful lessons, but also to a great extent, the psychology of gaining sympathy and seeking leniency.
Yang Xiaojun, a professor at the Law Department of the National School of Administration, said that judging whether an official truly repents, besides the confessions, we should pay more attention to whether his repentance is accurate and profound, and whether he really deeply reflects on "touching the soul". Driven by commutation, some officials only regard confessions as a profit-seeking move, resulting in stereotyped writing, hollowing out and even blatant plagiarism. This kind of "speculative repentance" needs screening and vigilance.
Although some officials’ confessions make people not see any sincerity, there are still a large number of officials who seriously reflect on their own mistakes after falling off the horse, and their confessions really play a very important role in reflecting and warning the cadres in party member. The 8-episode feature film "Always on the Road" jointly produced by CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection Propaganda Department and CCTV, such as Zhou Yongkang, Jiang Jiemin, Ji Jianye, Li Chuncheng, Bai Enpei and other high-ranking officials who have fallen off the horse have appeared to express their remorse, which has become a hot topic.
As the saying goes, "If you dare to do it, you must dare to be it" and "The prodigal son will never change his money"! If these officials who made mistakes can’t face up to their mistakes and are still lucky when writing confessions, who will fall if you don’t fall? ! (Text/Liu Shan)
