Yu Menglong Sacrificed—Did the Li Peng Family Take Revenge on Xi Jinping?

[People News] Recently, the self-media commentator “Youliao” (meaning “Insider”) revealed that the death of actor Yu Menglong was a ritual sacrifice. “Youliao,” who once claimed on air to be a retired senior CCP official qualified to attend Politburo meetings, explained that Yu Menglong was killed because he shared the same birthday as Xi Jinping—June 15. He further revealed what he called the CCP’s darkest secret: to stabilise its rule, the regime sacrifices 300 boys and girls every year on Mount Kunlun. This, he said, explains why China’s vast network of surveillance cameras never seems to find the country’s many missing children.

Another commentator, “Ma Xian,” discussed the bizarre details surrounding Yu Menglong’s death and the strange Weibo post “Delicious” (好吃) made by film director Cheng Qingsong after the incident. Commentator Li Dayu also analysed the case in detail, asserting that Yu’s death indeed matched the pattern of a human sacrifice ritual.

So—was this an act of life extension or a curse? There are still many questions.

1. The Suspected Reason for Qiao Renliang’s Death

On September 15, 2016, actor Qiao Renliang died suddenly. Party media reported it as a suicide due to depression. However, following Yu Menglong’s death, the real cause of Qiao’s death has resurfaced. Rumours have long circulated that Xi Jinping’s father, Xi Zhongxun, committed great sins during his lifetime, generating karmic retribution that his son, Xi Jinping, must now bear. It is said that Qiao Renliang was killed as a “death substitute” (替死鬼) to absorb this disaster for Xi Jinping.

Xi Zhongxun: Born October 15, 1913 (癸丑年 壬戌月 己巳日)

Qiao Renliang: Born October 15, 1987 (丁卯年 庚戌月 丁酉日)

“Fire gives birth to earth,” and Xi Jinping himself was born on a Ding You day (丁酉日)—suggesting, according to this logic, that Qiao’s death could indeed have served as a disaster shield for Xi.

Online rumours claim that Wang Sicong (son of Wanda Group founder Wang Jianlin) was the real killer. But what could have been his motive?

After Bo Xilai fell in 2012, his “white glove” businessman Xu Ming was detained. In December 2015, Xu died suddenly in prison at age 44—officially from “a sudden illness.” Many believed he would trade his fortune for freedom, but he died mysteriously instead. This surely terrified Wang Jianlin, who had also been close to Bo.

In 2016, under Xi Jinping’s sweeping anti-corruption campaign, many powerful families began moving assets abroad. But Wang Jianlin went the other way—borrowing heavily in China while buying sports clubs and real estate overseas. In 2016, Wanda Group’s real estate division reported ¥100.2 billion in book assets, ¥751.1 billion in total assets, and ¥527.8 billion in liabilities—a dangerous 70% debt ratio. In March 2017, then–PBOC Governor Zhou Xiaochuan warned Wang to pull back, but Wang remained confident. Who gave him that confidence?

Xi had already declared that his anti-corruption drive would “recognise no kinship.” Yet Wang Jianlin dared to take such risks—perhaps, some suggest, because his son Wang Sicong’s killing of Qiao Renliang was a form of “offering loyalty” to Xi through sacrifice.

2. Was Yu Menglong’s Death for Life Extension or a Curse?

Xi Jinping was born June 15, 1953, and Yu Menglong was born June 15, 1988—the same month and day. Some, therefore, claim Yu was killed to extend Xi’s life. But is that true?

To explore this, we can compare it to another mysterious case—the death of Leslie Cheung (Zhang Guorong).

Recently, film mogul Mrs Charles Heung (Xiang Tai) revealed that Cheung’s death years ago was not suicide. She said that shortly before his fall, Cheung called her, asking her to hold a press conference to clarify that he was not depressed. Moments after she hung up, news broke that he had jumped to his death. She is convinced he did not take his own life.

According to online rumours, while filming Red Lover (紅色戀人), Cheung met Ye Daying, the grandson of revolutionary general Ye Ting. Ye invested in the film but suffered from Guillain–Barré syndrome, which causes numbness and facial paralysis. At the time, he was courting 19-year-old actress Mei Ting.

It is suspected that Ye performed a life-extension ritual, using Cheung as a substitute. A Sohu News article once claimed that Cheung was born under a “dragon maiden” destiny, possessing a dual yin-yang nature—traits believed by some mystics to make such people ideal for sacrifice.

Leslie Cheung: Born Sept. 12, 1956 (丙申年、乙酉月、丁巳日)

Ye Daying: Born June 12, 1958 (戊戌年、壬午月、乙巳日)

Their charts form a “wood generates fire; fire consumes wood” relationship, meaning when both experience major fate shifts, they share similar life patterns. Thus, Cheung’s death as a sacrifice for Ye’s life could be plausible in that worldview.

Now compare Xi and Yu Menglong:

Xi Jinping: 癸巳年 戊午月 丁酉日

Yu Menglong: 戊辰年 戊午月 辛丑日

Fire conquers metal—suggesting a karmic bond of conflict, not harmony. Yu’s death sparked public outrage and international attention, indicating it may have failed to prolong Xi’s life.

Online rumours claim the killing was orchestrated by “Jiguangguang” (Aurora Guang), real name Li Ming, grandson of former Premier Li Peng’s son, Li Xiaoyong. To determine whether Jiguangguang acted out of gratitude or hatred toward Xi could reveal whether the act was a life-extension ritual or a curse.

It’s rumoured that Li Xiaoyong and his wife Ye Xiaoyan (叶小燕) were involved in arms smuggling, and that Yu Menglong and several other entertainers linked to Jiguangguang ran companies connected to arms trade businesses. According to the PLA’s official Military Procurement Network, from August 28 to September 1, the Rocket Force Logistics Department issued 180 notices, disqualifying 74 review experts and 116 suppliers. Could this move by Xi have cut into the Li family’s profits?

Moreover, the Li Peng family once controlled China’s entire electric power system. In 2016, Xi forced them out—something the Lis could hardly have appreciated.

3. Retribution for Killing

After Leslie Cheung’s death, Ye Daying divorced, and his relationship with Mei Ting ended. Though once a renowned director (Half Sea, Half Flame, Red Cherry, Red Lover), he ended his life alone and obscure.

After Qiao Renliang’s death, Wang Sicong, heir to Wanda, saw the collapse of the Wanda empire, drowning in debt. Once hailed as the sharpest of China’s rich second generation, he now lives in exile in Japan—a total downfall. Ironically, most of Wanda’s assets were later acquired by Xi Jinping’s eldest son, Ke Liming (柯利明), born of his ex-wife.

Some spiritual observers comment: “All life has a fixed fate. To take someone’s life, another must fill the gap. Those who conduct sacrifices become guides for the dead—and may themselves lose part of their soul. In the end, their families are doomed to ruin.”
