No Mention of Xi's Name, but Everyone is Hinting at Him

A video has gone viral among Chinese netizens (screenshot)

[People News] Recently, a video has gone viral among Chinese netizens. While the video does not mention any specific names, many users have collectively directed their criticism towards Xi Jinping, the leader of the Chinese Communist Party.

It's clear who they are referring to.

On the Chinese platform Douyin, a blogger known as "@Zhao Shi, Lin Ge" recently posted a short video in which he made a pointed remark: "You, thanks to your father, if it weren't for your father, you'd be a farmer like me. It's not that I look down on you, it's just that you really can't do it." (video link)

Although the video does not explicitly identify who "you" refers to, it is labelled below as a "self-created work, fictional interpretation for entertainment only." Nevertheless, many netizens commented that this is a thinly veiled jab at Xi Jinping. Comments included: "I heard the diploma is fake," "His father is also useless," "Everyone knows who you are talking about," "Go to Beijing and tell him," and "Not only is he useless, but he is also bad."

Some netizens even boldly asked: "When will he die?" "When will he pass away?" "And he is still an elementary school student."

The video was taken down shortly after its release, and the blogger's Douyin account was banned. However, the video was shared on the overseas X platform, where it had garnered over 5,000 likes, nearly 1,000 comments, and more than 1,300 shares before being removed from Douyin.

After being discovered by netizens, '@Zhao Shi, Lin Ge' has produced several videos, each addressing different topics. For instance, some videos question how, in a peaceful era devoid of hunger and war, the issue of a significant number of missing persons has become a yearly norm. With so many children unaccounted for, there must be someone held responsible for this. He remarked: 'Those who cause people to go missing will inevitably face historical judgment, will be nailed to the historical pillory of shame, and will become the greatest criminals of the Chinese nation.'

In another video, Zhao Shi Lin Ge stated: 'Making money off the lives of others, using others' lives to prolong your own, is the height of shamelessness.' 'You will certainly face historical judgment.' This clearly targets the heinous actions of high-ranking officials in the Chinese Communist Party who kill young people to harvest their organs and extend their lives to 150 years.

On March 13, a new video was posted on the Douyin account '@Zhao Shi Lin Ge,' where he said: 'Opportunities must not be missed; they do not come again. Since someone has created this opportunity for us, we must seize it. If we do not, once the opportunity is lost, it may truly be gone.' However, the intent behind this statement remains unclear, leaving many netizens guessing.

Even individuals with only a primary school education can rise to become party leaders.

Xi Jinping, the current General Secretary of the Communist Party of China, was born in 1953 and has only completed elementary school education. In January 1974, at the age of 21, he joined the Communist Party and soon became the village party branch secretary of Liangjiahe Village in Yanchuan County, Yan'an City, Shaanxi Province. The following year (1975), he was recommended for admission to Tsinghua University, and after graduating in 1979, he went directly to work as a secretary in the General Office of the State Council and the General Office of the Central Military Commission. By 1982, at just 29 years old, Xi had left Beijing for Zhengding County in Hebei Province, where he served successively as the deputy secretary and secretary of the county committee, marking the beginning of his local government career.

Looking at Xi Jinping's political trajectory, one might wonder how he could have had such a successful official career with only an elementary school education if it weren't for his father, Xi Zhongxun.

There are countless billionaires among the red second generation.

As one user, "@Zhao Shi, Lin Ge," remarked: "You owe it all to your father. If it weren't for him, you'd be just a farmer like me. It's not that I look down on you; it's just that you really can't do it." These words strike at the heart of the matter. Whether in politics or the military, the red second generation quickly ascends to leadership positions.

Meanwhile, the red second and third generations in business have almost all become billionaires in a short time, amassing wealth that rivals that of nations.

After the Communist Party took power, high-ranking officials exploited the 'communist' system to convert state-owned assets into private wealth, each becoming rich enough to rival nations. For instance, over a dozen red descendants, implicated in the death of Chinese actor Yu Menglong, are mostly in their twenties but already possess assets worth hundreds of millions or even billions.

Rumours suggest that one of Xi Jinping's alleged illegitimate daughters, Yang Lanlan, who has relocated to Australia, boasts assets amounting to 270 billion Australian dollars at just 23 years old. If she were not the daughter of the Chinese Communist Party's leader, where would such astronomical wealth originate?

Reports from Hong Kong media indicate that the family of former Chinese Communist Party leader Jiang Zemin has a monopoly on the electronic communications industry, while the family of Zeng Qinghong has long dominated the oil, energy, and chemical sectors. Liu Yunshan's eldest son, Liu Lefe, is reportedly hidden within Citic, secretly controlling the financial industry. The Wu Guanzheng family oversees the Everbright Group, and Li Changchun's daughter, Li Tong, serves as the CEO of Bank of China International Holdings. The Chinese economy appears to be firmly in the grasp of these princelings and the descendants of the red elite.

The July 2016 issue of Hong Kong's "Zhengming" reported that among the families of the second and third generations of the Communist Party, 80% have become billionaires through business endeavours. Specifically, 78% of second-generation red families are engaged in business, while 83% of third-generation red families are involved in commerce. Furthermore, these descendants of the red elite are amassing billionaire status at an astonishing rate, with children from second-generation red families typically achieving billionaire status after an average of over five years in business.

In early 2016, Peking University published the "China Livelihood Development Report 2015," which highlighted that approximately one-third of China's wealth is concentrated in the hands of the top 1% of families, while the bottom 25% of families hold only about 1% of the total social wealth.

The extreme wealth disparity poses a significant threat to social stability.

According to reports from Hong Kong media, in November 2015, officials acknowledged that the wealth gap in society is widening, with nearly 90 million rural and urban residents living below the poverty line.

Economist He Qinglian highlighted in an article for Voice of America that for nearly two decades, the plundering of public and private assets by the privileged capitalists of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has reached an almost unchecked level, leading to a significant wealth gap and an unequal concentration of wealth.

The injustices present in Chinese society, whether viewed through the lens of social structure, social class, or across urban-rural and regional divides, reveal a growing trend. These issues are likely to pose a threat to social stability and could become a bottleneck for future social development.

Voice of America cited Xiao Qiang, the founder and editor-in-chief of China Digital Times, who noted that if the vast hidden offshore assets of the CCP's elite were to be revealed, it would greatly undermine the confidence of ordinary Chinese citizens in both the future of China and the ruling party. This impact would be profound, affecting trust in the CCP's governance and the overall system.

The prevalent choices among young people in China to avoid marriage, refrain from having children, and not purchase homes or cars reflect a deep-seated loss of confidence in the future.
