The reputation of the former Head Monk of the famous Shaolin Temple – Shi Yongxin – literally collapsed overnight! The trouble he has caused has not been limited only to himself! After Shi Yongxin got into trouble, his brother – Liu Yingbiao – quite literally disappeared from public view – with the media reporting that he has gone “missing”.
After attempting to contact the Shaolin Painting & Calligraphy Institute – no specific statement was forthcoming – as the exact details of the situation are unknown. His brother once served as a shareholder in enterprises related to the Shaolin Temple. Liu Yingbiao once bluntly said, ‘As the brother of Shi Yongxin, the pressure on me is very high!’ His calligraphy works were once collected at a very high price of at least $7000 per one (single) brush and ink Chinese character (ideogram).
