Paul Xiaoming Lee, (Li Xiaoming) the richest man in China’s Yunnan province, and a U.S. citizen, and his younger brother Li Xiaohua, reportedly a U.S. green card holder, are currently under residential surveillance by police in China.
The path to wealth of the super-rich brothers is attracting a great deal of attention. Moreover, over the past few years, the Li brothers have cashed out more than 10 billion yuan (about $1.4 billion) from their company, a sign they may have planned to flee the country.
