表哥 (Biǎo Gē) Watch Brother
On August 30, 2012, a traffic accident in Yan’an, Shaanxi Province left 36 dead.
Yang Dacai, head of the Shaanxi Provincial Bureau of Work Safety, was photographed grinning broadly at the scene.
Netizens conducted a human flesh search that unearthed a number of photographs showing Yang wearing at least 11 different luxury watches. He would not have been able to afford these on his government salary alone.
Yang was removed from his position in September 2012. He has gone down in Chinese Internet history as Watch Brother.
