It seems the central government has decided to reduce the influence of private business in the cooal mining business in ShanXi. China is turning independent coal mines into state-run operations, showing its impatience with private companies that get too big. - News Week

I believe this is a much better explanation. The excess shown in this post brought a reaction from the central government. Wedding in ShanXi, China. Ferrari's as escort cars. Roll Royce Phantom. And the wedding parade was filmed.

Another wedding had:

6 Jeeps as camera team
4 Ferrari leads
4 Rolls Royce main fleet
6 Mercedes
6 Bentleys
20 Audi A
8 Hummer's
