[People News] On November 14, U.S.-based commentator Tang Jingyuan cited insiders from within the system during a YouTube program, revealing that Xi Jinping has been stripped of nearly all real power during this Fourth Plenary Session. Additionally, the officials accompanying Xi Jinping at several recent public events and the scale of these events have shown a marked downgrade, further confirming that the rumours regarding Xi Jinping's loss of power are not baseless.
On November 5, Xi Jinping attended the flag-raising ceremony for the commissioning of the third aircraft carrier, the 'Fujian'. Xinhua News Agency reported that only Cai Qi, Zhang Guoqing, and the newly appointed Vice Chairman of the Military Commission, Zhang Shengmin, were present at the ceremony, with around 2,000 representatives attending, a significant drop from the 5,000 who attended the commissioning of the 'Shandong' in 2019. Notably, the three senior generals who should have accompanied Xi Jinping—Navy Commander Hu Zhongming, Southern Theatre Commander Wu Yanan, and Political Commissar Wang Wenquan—were all collectively absent.
Furthermore, high-ranking officials such as Premier Li Qiang and Vice Premier Ding Xuexiang did not accompany him, and there was no activity for Xi Jinping to review the honour guard. The event was also reported by state media only two days after it was delayed, suggesting that while Xi Jinping still holds the title of Chairman of the Central Military Commission, he lacks real power and is therefore treated with a downgrade.
On November 9, Xi Jinping met with representatives of advanced national sports in Guangzhou and attended the opening ceremony of the 15th National Games. Historically, Cai Qi, the director of the General Office, would follow Xi Jinping closely, but he was notably absent this time. Is it possible that Cai Qi was also summoned for a 'tea' meeting and subjected to scrutiny?
In a group photo released by state media, Xi Jinping and Zhang Youxia, the vice chairman of the Central Military Commission, were seated in the centre, equidistant from the officials on either side. This arrangement suggests that both men are on equal footing, openly signalling to the outside world that Zhang Youxia's status is not inferior to that of Xi Jinping, the chairman of the Military Commission. This clearly indicates that Xi, having lost military authority, is compelled to remain as chairman to maintain appearances.
On November 14, self-media influencer and commentator Tang Jingyuan cited insiders from within the system during a YouTube program, revealing that Xi Jinping has been stripped of nearly all real power at this Fourth Plenary Session. The communiqué released by the Communist Party at this session is described as a massive deception, aimed at using various means to obscure the truth amid a looming power crisis. He cautioned viewers not to be misled by the official statements.
The revelations suggest that the actual power dynamics within the upper echelons of the Communist Party are such that military power remains under Zhang Youxia's control, former Premier Wen Jiabao oversees the overall situation from the rear, Wang Yang has effectively returned to fully manage party affairs, and Hu Chunhua is preparing various matters and is viewed as a potential successor, yet still adheres to the party's preservation direction in terms of policy.
Tang Jingyuan also noted that he received another piece of information from a different but more authoritative source, indicating that Xi Jinping had already been stripped of power during the Fourth Plenary Session and is now following the model of Hua Guofeng, relegated to the role of a mere figurehead. There are two underlying reasons why this significant change was not disclosed in the communiqué of the Fourth Plenary Session. Firstly, many established arrangements are still incomplete, necessitating someone to remain on stage to take responsibility for this phase. Secondly, the mess left by Xi Jinping is too extensive for his successor to manage, and no one is willing to step forward now to take the blame. Thus, it is more convenient to allow Xi Jinping to continue in the spotlight, with all consequences attributed to him.
Tang Jingyuan assesses that the party elders, in their efforts to preserve the party, will continue to project the illusion that Xi Jinping wields significant power. In the near future, observers will witness a contradictory phenomenon: while the Communist Party of China (CPC) will persist in promoting Xi Jinping through its propaganda, it will simultaneously work to undermine his faction in practice.
Tang Jingyuan believes that both Deng Xiaoping's reform and opening-up policy and Xi Jinping's approach have led to a deadlock in the backward path of preserving the party. The CPC can no longer revert to the conditions of the Hu-Wen era. He stated that Xi Jinping initially had the opportunity to guide China toward a better future, but his ambition for power has not only led to his own downfall but has also intertwined the fate of the CPC with his own, making him a tool in the broader trend of the heavens seeking to dismantle the CPC.
Tang Jingyuan emphasised that the disintegration of the CPC is an imminent and irreversible historical trend, and the only individuals capable of safeguarding themselves are those willing to lead the country and the nation out of the red system.
Tang Jingyuan further stressed that the CPC is currently undergoing an unprecedented major transformation, and the internal information he has received should only be regarded as a reference for assessing the situation.△
