Thursday, April 08, 2010
An official has reportedly been detained after allegedly accepting bribes so he could pay for sex and pursue a plan to sleep with up to 800 women.
The 47-year-old department head in the eastern city of Anqing was turned in by his wife last month after she discovered his diaries, containing detailed records of his sexual trysts and bribe payments, the Dahe Daily reported.
The news broke as President Hu Jintao warned officials to be aware of the temptations of beautiful women, money and power in a speech wrapping up a campaign on examining and improving the development of the Communist Party.
The Anqing man, given the pseudonym Wang Cheng, secretly recorded his exploits on video and stored the footage on a portable hard drive found with the diaries.

"He was busy eight hours a day seeking bribes, and eight hours a day as a hooligan seeking sex," the paper quoted prosecutors as saying.
In his earliest diary entries from 2003, Wang set out the goal of bedding at least 56 women a year while maintaining two mistresses "from respectable families."
In order to do that, Wang said he would need to collect up to 100,000 yuan (HK$113,000) in bribes, about five times his annual salary, that year alone.
In subsequent years, as Wang moved up the ranks at work, he took more bribes - and bedded more women, especially as those who paid him kickbacks, many involving real estate deals, found out about his fondness for sex. Wang admitted to spending several hundred thousand yuan buying sex.
Wang claims to have slept with at least 500 women, and had set the goal of having sex with "600 to 800."
