About Wang Shaojun

Lived 1955 – 2023 (aged 67–68). Wang Shaojun was a Chinese military leader.

Wang Shaojun (; 1955 – 26 April 2023) was a lieutenant general of the People's Liberation Army Ground Force. He had been serving as the director of the Central Guard Bureau since 2015. Wang was born in Yongnian County, Hebei province. He was promoted to the rank of major general in 2008, then in 2010 became the deputy director of the Central Guard Bureau. In March 2015 he was promoted to director.
