Prosecutors also accused Chen of seeking to hide his membership in various talent recruitment programs funded by the Chinese government. They said Chen was an adviser to a talent program at a middle school in Chongqing. They also cited a WeChat communication between Chen and a colleague in which he asks her to strike language from a proposed draft contract with the Wuhan city government suggesting he would be willing to join a talent program. The colleague later told investigators that she was unaware of Chen having any involvement with any talent program, the person said.
