Among them is the account “wanghongquanxing” of Wang Hongquan, a Hubei province resident who often posts videos showing off his expensive jewelry collections.
According to China Daily , some of the accounts that were also banned were “baoyu jiajie” (Sister Abalone) belonging to a wealthy person in Guangdong province; or “Bo Gongzi” (Master Bo), a social media influencer with a penchant for buying Hermes items.
This comes amid a cleanup campaign across platforms to remove “negative value-oriented” content, a term used by Chinese social media platforms, watchdogs and newspapers to describe behaviours such as cyberbullying and spreading disinformation.
On May 15, the Global Times reported that many Chinese social media platforms announced that they would block content that flaunts wealth and encourages the pursuit of materialism.
As a result, Wang Hongquan and Sister Abalane's Weibo accounts were suspended. According to China Daily , Wang Hongquan also has more than 4 million followers on Douyin.
The content posted on this account often shows off designer handbags, lavish jewelry collections, or frequent appearances at luxury brand events.
Dubbed the “Kim Kardashian of China,” the man owns seven properties in a high-end residential area in Beijing, according to the South China Morning Post .
Wang also appears to own another YouTube account called “xiaolaodao” or “Little Nagging” that is still active.
Video footage of Wang's interview with Phoenix TV in December 2023 shows him showing off a large jewelry box.
When asked how much jewelry he keeps at home in Beijing, Wang said: “The ones I have worn recently are all kept (in this box). As for how many pieces I own, I don’t know, I have never checked.”
In the video, Wang shows off a sapphire necklace imported from Myanmar and a sapphire brooch from Sri Lanka. He says both items cost “seven figures, (they) haven’t reached eight figures yet.”
According to The Paper , Ms. Abalone, from Guangdong province, also often shows off her rich life, such as her 2,000 square meter villa.
The woman has attracted more than 2 million followers on Douyin, where she posts videos of herself leisurely strolling in her private garden.
Sister Abalone's douyin account has reported an error, but her Facebook account with 46,000 followers is still active.
The Facebook page features many photos of Sister Abalone showing off designer clothes, rare delicacies and expensive jewelry such as jade bracelets.
According to the Global Times , platforms such as Tencent, Douyin, Weibo and Xiaohongshu have already implemented regulations against content that promotes negative values.
In a statement released on May 15, Weibo affirmed that it is committed to creating a “civilized, healthy and harmonious” environment, encouraging users to create or share “honest and valuable positive” content.
Weibo said that as of May 15, it had “cleaned up” 1,110 posts flaunting wealth and other “bad value” behaviors on the platform; 27 accounts were banned from posting or suspended, depending on the severity of the violation.
