The only reason that happened was because that CEO's decisions lead to massive negative results in China's real-estate sectors, which in turn cost the Chinese government a lot of money, and THAT is why that criminal actually saw consequences.
Don't take that as proof that China judges everyone fairly regardless of wealth/status. As long as you keep your crimes to an extent that it doesn't cause a massive backlash on large swaths of the country, it's a different ballgame.
As others have said, you'd be wise to distrust both.
