The deceased businessman was buried alongside his beloved Mercedes S450L, adorned with a red bow. Video shows the luxury car, valued at approximately £120,000, being lowered into a grave near his burial site in Liaoning, northeastern China.
This unusual ritual sparked outrage online and attracted the attention of authorities, who launched an investigation. The license plate "8888" on the car attracted additional attention: in Chinese culture, the number 8 is considered a symbol of wealth and good fortune, making the incident even more controversial.
