[People News] Yang Lanlan — rumored online to be the illegitimate daughter of CCP leader Xi Jinping and said to possess a fortune of 270 billion Australian dollars, making her “as wealthy as a nation” — had been living quietly in Sydney, Australia, and had not drawn much attention from the Chinese community. However, a car accident, combined with her repeated refusal to appear in court or plead guilty, has brought her into the public spotlight.
In particular, in the case involving Chinese actor Yu Menglong, it was previously revealed that he had long been harassed and threatened by someone referred to as an “Australian little princess.” Netizens speculated that Yang Lanlan was this person, making her the focus of widespread online searches.
On January 30, at the Downing Centre Local Court in Sydney, Yang Lanlan’s luxury car hit-and-run case was mentioned again. She did not appear in court; only her lawyer attended. The police prosecutor requested a delay, citing the need to prepare further regarding two newly added charges.
According to New Tang Dynasty Television, the two additional charges brought two weeks earlier are: “dangerous driving occasioning grievous bodily harm while under the influence of alcohol” and “mid-range drink driving.” These charges carry potential sentences of up to seven years in prison, or even more severe penalties.
Yang Lanlan’s lawyer entered not-guilty pleas to the new charges and denied to reporters the claim that Yang had used a stand-in.
Reporter: “Why are you pleading not guilty to the additional charges?”
Yang Lanlan’s defense lawyer, Michael Korn: “Because we intend to defend those charges.”
Reporter: “How do you respond to claims that Ms. Yang used a stand-in?”
Michael Korn: “I think that’s a very serious allegation. Thank you.”
Recently, suspicions about Yang Lanlan using a stand-in have drawn renewed attention. Two weeks ago, on January 14, a young Asian woman reported to the Rose Bay Police Station, claiming to be Yang Lanlan. However, when questioned by a Daily Mail reporter as she left whether she was Yang Lanlan or someone else, the woman replied that she was someone else.
Daily Mail reporter Stephen Gibbs: “Are you really Lanlan? Are you Yang Lanlan, or someone else?”
Woman who reported to the police station: “I’m someone else.”
Stephen Gibbs: “Oh really? Who are you?”
As she got into a Rolls-Royce, she also said the car did not belong to her.
Stephen Gibbs: “Is this new Rolls-Royce yours?”
Woman: “Not mine.”
The Daily Mail also revealed that last Wednesday (January 21), when Yang Lanlan reported to a police station, she wore a Chanel coat worth 12,000 Australian dollars, appearing as if on a fashion runway. Later that day, she and her driver were seen outside Glebe Police Station in Sydney’s inner west, apparently seeking police assistance to get rid of pursuing reporters. When officers asked Yang Lanlan to remove her mask to verify her identity, she initially refused but eventually agreed to enter the station and show identification.
Yang Lanlan’s case is scheduled to return to court on March 31. △
