Yang Dacai is a Chinese former politician. He was the head of the Shaanxi province work safety administration[1] when a viral photo of him at the scene of the Shaanxi bus–tanker crash showed him wearing a luxury timepiece caused a public outcry against corruption in China.[2] Chinese netizens found images of Yang on Xina Weibo wearing at least 10 different watches.[3] The Xi'an Intermediate People's Court issued a prison sentence of 14 years for taking bribes and possessing assets of unclear origin.[4] Since Yang was smiling in the original photo and in images taken during his sentencing, he became known as the "smiling official" (Chinese: 微笑局长|links=no) as well as 'Brother Watch' (Chinese: 表哥|links=no).[5]
