Wu Pusheng, former general manager of Da Heng Qin Investment, will face trial on corruption charges, including accepting bribes, abusing power, and misappropriating public funds for personal gain. The case has already been referred to the Chinese Ministry of Justice, according to information released Monday by Zhuhai authorities.
Wu Pusheng is alleged to have violated integrity rules by accepting money, property, and undue benefits, as well as favoring third parties in public works bidding processes, according to the Zhuhai Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision. Authorities also accuse him of unfair competition and the misuse of public funds.
The same statement notes that the former executive demonstrated “disloyalty and dishonesty” toward the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and was expelled after allegedly failing to cooperate with the investigation. The commission adds that Wu allegedly continued to engage in misconduct even after the anti-corruption campaign launched in 2012 was intensified.
This is the second case involving senior executives at Da Heng Qin Investment in less than a year. In 2025, the company’s former chairman, Hu Jia, was also investigated and charged with accepting bribes between 2015 and 2024; he was likewise expelled from the CCP and referred for trial.

This string of incidents raises concerns about the governance of state-owned enterprises involved in the development of Hengqin, a strategic zone for cooperation between Guangdong and Macau.
Meanwhile, following the disclosure of Hu Jia’s case, an official from the Executive Committee of the In-Depth Cooperation Zone in Hengqin, resigned for personal reasons and subsequently took up a technical position in Macau’s public administration.
