Puzzled At The Wealth Of Chinese Civil Servants - Jiang Weiqiang Too Focus Media Edition

An old disclosure:

In March 2006, Weiqiang Jiang, the begetter of Jason Nanchun Jiang (the CEO/controller of Focus Media), provided a short-term loan to the Group of to a greater extent than or less $2.5 meg to salve a temporary shortage of Renminbi the Group experienced at that time. The loan is unsecured too was provided to us at no interest. The loan volition larn due too payable inwards amount on June 30, 2006.

Now the entirely Jiang Weiqiang I tin flaming honor industrial plant equally a civil retainer for ane of the nearly powerful of Chinese departments - the State Council Information Office. Here is an English linguistic communication CV:

Jiang Weiqiang

Director-General, International Bureau, State Council Information Office

Jiang Weiqiang too his State Council Information Office colleagues was laid upward to play a leading utilization inwards Beijing's media courtship of Africa ahead of the 4th Forum on China-Africa Cooperation inwards Sharm el-Sheikh, Arab Republic of Egypt inwards Nov 2009. At the FOCAC Media Seminar inwards Beijing, 15-19 July, Jiang tried to develop a united front end alongside African nation media organisations. He insisted that the message of China-Africa cooperation should last taken straight to the people too non depend on Western media, which he described equally anti-China too anti-Africa. Representatives from 27 African countries attended, equally did Assistant Foreign Minister Zhai Jun too Liu Yunshan, Politburo fellow member too Director of the Central Propaganda Department. 

Trained equally an engineer, Jiang entered the People's Liberation Army inwards 1970. While serving, he studied English linguistic communication at the Luoyang PLA College of Foreign Languages, responsible for preparation intelligence agents. In 1991, Jiang left the PLA to bring together the SCIO, the management overseeing China's nation media, including the People's Daily paper too Xinhua intelligence agency. Xinhua is planning its ain multi-billion dollar global too African media expansion.

My questions: is this the same Jiang Wieqiang? And if hence (and it seems so) how does a Chinese civil retainer come upward up alongside USD2.5 meg to brand an unsecured involvement gratuitous loan to a trouble concern controlled yesteryear his son?

I seek help from anyone alongside a well-followed Weibo account. If this tin flaming last crowdsourced inwards mainland People's Republic of China too then I mightiness larn skillful answers.

Thanks inwards advance.
