The three executives were Wang Junguo, vice president of the China Publishing Group Corp (CPGC), Luo Zhengyu, general manager of the textbook publishing branch of the CPGC, as well as Zhang Yueming, general manager of the World Publishing Corporation's Beijing branch, said a notice published at the website of the Communist Party of China's (CPC) Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI) on Monday evening.
