Zhang Youxia Arrested — Chaos in the PLA Is the Result of Jiang Zemin’s Corrupt Way of Running the Military
Since taking office, current Party leader Xi Jinping has brought down four vice chairmen of the Central Military Commission. Among them, Guo Boxiong and Xu Caihou were protégés of Jiang Zemin, while He Weidong and Zhang Youxia were his own confidants. In order to weaken the authority of then–General Secretary and CMC Chairman Hu Jintao, Jiang Zemin planted Guo Boxiong and Xu Caihou beside Hu to eavesdrop and monitor him, serving as Jiang’s eyes and ears while he ruled from behind the scenes. Because of this, a vicious culture of mutual distrust, mutual wariness, scheming against one another, a...
After Zhang Youxia, Who Would Still Be Willing to Risk Their Life for a System Like This
The downfall of Zhang Youxia was like a sledgehammer striking the very top of the power pyramid, shattering the outside world’s last illusions about absolute loyalty and monolithic unity. Unlike many previous routine anti-corruption campaigns, this marks the boiling point of the struggle over military power: if even a childhood family friend, a representative “red princeling,” and a core figure within the military can instantly become a prisoner, then it signals the official arrival of a new era in which no one is safe....

A Major Purge Triggers Shockwaves in the Military; Xi Gets a New Nickname
The arrest of Zhang Youxia, Vice Chairman of the Central Military Commission (CMC) of the Chinese Communist Party, has stunned the outside world and is being called the largest high-level purge in the history of the PLA! Holding the dual status of “second-generation red” and “second-generation military,” Zhang Youxia is one of the very few PLA generals with real combat experience and was the PLA’s highest commander in actual combat operations. He has long been regarded as a core member of the “Xi family army” and was once Xi Jinping’s most trusted military ally. Against such a background, Zhan...

Alleged Murder on the “Good Person List” — Fan Shiqi Sparks Public Fury
Today we focus on a public opinion storm that unfolded in real life but proved even more dramatic than a TV series. On January 25 in Yibin, Sichuan, what was originally a ceremony to honor so-called positive energy figures on the “China Good Person List” turned into a “public opinion blockade battle” involving tens of thousands of people — all because of the appearance of a controversial figure. That person was the entertainer long accused of being entangled in the Yu Menglong case — Fan Shiqi. Simply because “sha ren fan” ended up on the “Good Person List.”...

According to disclosures from multiple channels, former military insiders, and internal information circulating on social media, the CCP’s military is in a highly unusual state.

In-Depth Analysis of the Real Reasons Xi Jinping Arrested Zhang Youxia
After the well-known overseas self-media figure Mr. Cai Shenkun revealed that Zhang Youxia had been arrested, and specifically noted that the news had been “absolutely accurate” after repeated verification from multiple sources, many online influencers still questioned its authenticity. Although the internet is full of mixed truths and falsehoods, if one uses the mindset of normal people to analyze, reason, and judge the behavior and motives of abnormal people, one will inevitably fall into the trap of carving a mark on a boat to find a lost sword or climbing a tree to catch fish....

Zhang Youxia’s Arrest Triggers the Cracking of the CCP’s Community of Shared Interests
The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has relied on party officials forming communities of shared interests to create a balance of power and maintain its rule. The largest such community of shared interests is maintained through the Party structure to safeguard the personal and factional interests of small groups and individuals. However, after the recent wave of senior officials such as Zhang Youxia and Liu Zhenli being arrested, this community has begun to show signs of cracking. Observers analyze that, because constant adjustments and reshaping of personnel and power are required—forcing choice...
