The Chinese Communist Party is impoverished and going out of control

Recently, the Chinese Communist Party has suddenly launched several major measures to save the economy. One is to lower the reserve requirement ratio of banks and release 2 trillion yuan to save the stock market. The second is to ban new investment and development projects in more than a dozen provinces and cities. The third is to suddenly allow foreign capital to fully own financial institutions. , Fourth, the authority to adjust real estate policies is delegated to various provinces and cities. The four major policies have the effect of blowing away a pond of spring water in the downward spiral of the economy.
It is a common practice to release 2 trillion yuan to provide emergency relief, but the side effect of lowering the required reserve ratio is to increase the risks in the financial industry. When things are urgent, we must first focus on the immediate and not the long-term. Stopping development projects in some provinces and cities is to stop the misuse of development funds. The whole country has been over-developed. Any increase in investment will only be a waste of bullets in redundant construction. If something goes wrong, the only option is to stop it urgently.
Allowing foreign capital to fully own the equity of financial institutions is an unprecedented policy opening. In the words of the CCP, it is suspected of losing power and humiliating the country. In fact, this set of postures is more than reality. Foreign capital will not get involved in state-owned enterprises and large banks. How can they be fully owned if the scale is too large? The Communist Party of China operates within it, and everyone listens to the party. The overall environment is a one-party dictatorship. What can foreign investors do? As for small and medium-sized private financial institutions, they are all half-dead and just waiting for emergency treatment. How can foreign investors be so stupid as to take over a dead game that cannot be saved? The purpose of this policy is to create an illusion of openness and liven up the atmosphere.
As for the decentralization of real estate policy adjustment authority to provinces and cities, this is the "old bridge" that decentralized power from the central government in the early stage of reform and opening up, giving local governments more flexibility and initiative, thereby boosting the subjective initiative of local governments. The real estate market is already very bad, and small repairs will not help. Only by making a big move and retreating enough can we hope to revive the market. But what "good bridge" does the local government have to save the real estate market? The supply of real estate exceeds demand, and it is impossible to survive without suffering from tuberculosis and seven injuries.
The whole thing happened suddenly. Many major policy adjustments were launched at the same time. It was almost a 180-degree turn. It would never be ready in a short time. Policy adjustments require long-term planning, which proves that the party has already made plans and is just waiting for the final decision. Starting from last summer’s Beidaihe Conference, to the collective letter submitted by the second-generation red generation, the struggle between the two lines within the party has been fierce, but the struggle has not yet come to a conclusion, and the conclusion has not yet been decided, so all policy adjustments have been left in the dust.
Now a number of major policy adjustments have been launched at the same time, proving that the intra-party struggle has produced results, which is to urgently stop Xi Jinping's ten-year political regression and carry out a counter-direction in the main direction of the country's advance, people's retreat and wolf-warrior diplomacy. Taking a big step back and making positives out of negatives, the results show that the top authorities of the Chinese Communist Party are preparing to return to the old path of reform and opening up.
This incident is not good news for Xi Jinping. It proves that the whole party has confirmed that in the ten years since he came to power, he has failed in all domestic and foreign policy decisions, and he has been so embarrassed that he took off his pants. His self-proclaimed philosophy of struggle, rise in the east and fall in the west, collective economy, and unified command were all slapped in the face, which exactly proved what Li Keqiang, who was unjustly killed, said, "The Yangtze and Yellow Rivers will not flow backwards."
This incident proves another unspeakable fact, that is, the CCP is truly impoverished and is going out of control. Xi Jinping is paranoid and refuses to admit defeat. This is true during the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as when the country advances and the people retreat. Until the last moment, he will be deadlocked. Over the past forty years, thirty years of reform and opening up, and ten years of major setbacks, Xi Jinping has wiped out very little of the wealth accumulated by the CCP’s exploitation of the Chinese people in one fell swoop. First you take a big step to open up, then you take a big step back, and now you want to open up again, and then ten or eight years later, you take a big step back again - whoever continues to play with you will be beaten to death by you!
The most important thing is to save lives. It does not matter whether anyone believes in you or not. It is not a question of the financial industry surrendering, or whether anyone will buy a property after real estate policy adjustments. It is a matter of the CCP turning its hands into clouds and rain, saying one thing and doing another. The whole world has been fooled for decades. What a big loss! Now everyone sees the joke and no one gets involved. The CCP has enough fun. This is the problem.
In response to the major adjustments to the route, foreign policy is also taking a sharp turn. It is said that Liu Jianchao, who is about to become the new foreign minister, visited the United States as head of the International Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and visited the docks everywhere, showing a friendly face. After Taiwan's election, U.S. politicians visited Taiwan one after another to cheer for Taiwan. Even when Nauru, a small country with a modest income, severed diplomatic relations with Taiwan, Blinken had to express his condemnation. The Chinese Communist Party swallowed these slaps in the face.
After Lai Ching-te was elected, the CCP did not conduct large-scale military exercises, and the propaganda campaign was much lower-key than expected. Now no one on the island has mentioned national unity, one country, two systems, or the 1992 Consensus. The three parties are all debating the distribution of national power. Before the election, the CCP claimed that electing Lai Ching-te would mean choosing war, but now there is not even a hint of gunpowder.
You have to invite people to invest, and you have to fight wars, and you have to kowtow to the outside world, and you have to look down on others. This is not going to work.
Hong Kong’s Article 23 legislation has suddenly gained momentum recently. The national security law is too ugly and makes Hong Kong and foreign investors feel disappointed. The National Security Law is not the right path and affects the harmonious atmosphere of society. The right path is for Hong Kong people to enact Article 23 on their own to replace the function of the National Security Law. Li Jiachao launched Article 23 as soon as possible, so that the evil laws can be more detailed and strict. From then on, Article 23 will play a role in maintaining stability. The national security law will gradually disappear, and the Office of National Security will be inactive. He hopes to give Hong Kong a normal appearance.
From the perspective of the interests of the CCP, all this is reasonable, but it is a pity that it comes too late. If you do it ten years earlier, the effect will be very good. If you do it five years ago, it will be somewhat effective. In the end, it was delayed for another whole year because of the intra-party line struggle. Today, everyone was so frustrated over starting to do it. Unfortunately, the accumulated "habit" has already taken shape. The CCP is terminally ill and there is no medicine. The spirit to be alive is too late.

Young Chinese resume cash consumption: Save money when they spend money

Image : Mobile payments are becoming more and more popular in China, but young people are keen to return to cash consumption, saying that only when they feel pain when spending money can they truly save money.

The young public account "Houtang Research Institute" under the Chinese technology media 36Kr reported on the 28th that the 26-year-old Beguo is a civilian employee of a public agency with a monthly salary of 10,000 yuan (the same below, approximately NT$44,000). Since she does not have to pay rent in Shanghai, this salary is more than enough for her.
Because of this, Bagel rarely pays attention to her bank balance and buys whatever sher want. It wasn’t until one time when they were told that their account balance was insufficient when shopping online that they began to pay attention to the “cash saving method” spread on the Internet because it was recommended The blogger article said that it can not only ensure daily expenses, but also save more.
So since October last year, Bagel has been carrying her wallet with her every day when she goes out. Now when she goes shopping to check out, when the clerk looks at her and holds a sensor gun to scan the bar code on her mobile phone, she takes out cash without haste.
For Bagel, compared to the intuitive changes in numbers, the feeling of thinning the banknotes as they go out of the wallet makes her spend more rationally. She will no longer easily buy cute and cheap gadgets online, and has successfully resisted the demands of many stores. The temptation to scan a QR code to make purchases can save at least thousands every month.
Although cash consumption is despised and abandoned by everyone in China, Lucy, a 30-year-old mother of two children, said that it was a bit embarrassing to use cash for consumption at first, but having money to spend is better than having no money to spend.
Lucy, who runs an education and training institution with her husband, admitted that as her business improved, she bought a house and a car and had savings in her account. However, her investment in the breeding industry failed and she incurred a debt of more than 2 million RMB, so she began to develop a method of spending cash and saving money to survive. She said that this would also limit her expenses, because to withdraw money, she had to go to the bank with her ID card.
Lucy said that she had said before: "When will I realize that I have no money? That's when I start using cash." So when she switched to cash, she first went to the supermarket to shop, and everyone was queuing up. She still felt embarrassed when she paid with cash. Later I thought about it. After all, it was better than having nothing in my pocket.
She said: "The funniest thing is that when I go out to buy groceries with cash, my mother and aunt won't let me pay when they see it, because they think I have no money, so I explain that I don't have any money now." I have no money, so I just want to spend cash.”
Lucy said that if you carry 100 RMB with you, you can only spend 100 RMB, so limit unnecessary expenses and get rid of the habit of retaliatory spending.
28-year-old Mumu has closed all password-free App payments since she resumed cash consumption, because "if there is money in WeChat, I really can't help spending it." He also said that another advantage of cash consumption is that merchants will automatically erase zeros. For items that may cost 22 RMB and 30 cents, you only need to pay 22 RMB at checkout.
According to the report, the article "The Impact of Mobile Payment Channel on Consumer Consumption" published in the Social Science Research Network (SSRN) pointed out that mobile payment weakens the psychological pain of consumer behaviour and is also invisible. Increase the transaction amount and purchase frequency of ordinary people.
The online video "The Culprit of Unrestrained Consumption" said that most people don't feel pain when they consume. "When the number came out, there was no pain... But spending cash is very worthwhile. You have a wad of cash in your wallet and take out the money every day. When you see it getting thinner, you can feel it."

From Beijing to Guangzhou, an increasingly impoverished Chinese society before the Lunar New Year
Editor-in-Chief: Chu Tian / Source: Sanli News / https://www.aboluowang.com/2024/0129/2010952.html
CCP China's economy continues to fall into depression. Many small and medium-sized enterprises are unable to pay their salaries. "The unemployment rate is rising" and a large number of shops have closed.

Interviewee in Guangzhou, China: "Are all major shopping malls in Guangzhou like this now? Today at Sunac Mao, there are only a few people in the entire shopping mall."
Not only were shopping malls in Guangzhou deserted, people shopping also found that everywhere they looked, there were few people and many shops were closed and their rolling doors were closed. The same situation was also seen in other first-tier cities in China.
Interviewee in Shanghai, China: "On the 25th day of opening a store in Shanghai, today the last bit of goods in the store has been taken away."
Interviewee i in Shenzhen, China: "It's really an exaggeration. I went out to have a meal at night and found that all the shops in this row were empty."
Interviewee i in Beijing, China: “It’s so scary, they’re all closed.”
Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou fell one after another, and even Sanlitun, the nightlife center of Beijing and the fashion center of China, has lost its former glory.
Interviewee in Beijing, China: "The current situation of winter dining in Sanlitun. This is Sanlitun at 7 o'clock on a Monday night. There are almost no people shopping outside."
Many Chinese people complained bitterly, saying that this year has been particularly bad. Even though the New Year is approaching, we have not seen the large number of people buying new year's goods in the past.
Interviewee in Anhui, China: "Many people are unemployed, including myself. Many people are unemployed and have nothing to do, and their income is not high."
Interviewee in Anhui, China: "But they are reluctant to buy luxury goods, and consumption is declining."
As the economy continues to slump, people's incomes decrease and their consumption power weakens, forming a vicious circle. Experts believe that China will continue to fall into a Great Depression in the future.
Xie Tian, a professor at the University of South Carolina's Aiken School of Business: "Now the CCP absolutely does not dare to relax its political control. In other words, it does not want to revitalize the economy through structural reforms."
The CCP refuses to reverse the economic predicament from the system, and life may become increasingly miserable. People will lose trust in the government and will inevitably have to tighten their purse strings to survive.

If the leader of the Chinese Communist Party is really seriously ill, there will be huge waves in Zhongnanhai
Report by : Yuan Bin / Editor : Li Anda / Source: The Epoch Times / https://www.aboluowang.com/2024/0130/2011249.html
Some netizens posted on social platforms on 24 January 2024 and broke the news that Xi Jinping, the leader of the Communist Party of China, was diagnosed with a pancreatic shadow in the 301 Hospital due to extreme weight loss, which may be pancreatic cancer.
The post wrote that he graduated from a well-known domestic medical school with a high score in nursing, and now works as a nurse in a tertiary-level hospital in Beijing. Many of his classmates also work in major hospitals in Beijing, and some of them also provide care to veteran cadres. The day before yesterday, a very good classmate told him privately that because of his sudden signs of weight loss, Xi Jinping had a PET-CT scan at the 301 Hospital and found a pancreatic shadow, which was suspected to be pancreatic cancer.
Rumours about Xi's health problems have circulated before. At the end of 2021, there was news that Xi was rushed to the hospital for treatment due to "cerebral hemorrhage." In May 2022, the British "Daily Mail" disclosed that Xi was suspected of suffering from a "brain aneurysm", but he was unwilling to undergo surgery and hoped to treat it through other methods.
The latest rumours about Xi's health problems originated from the cremation of Zhang Kehui's body, the former chairman of the Taiwan League Central Committee, on 17 January 2024 at Babaoshan. Xi and other members of the Standing Committee went to see him off. Video footage released by CCTV News showed that he looked quite haggard. His face turned gray. What is even more surprising is that Xi's figure looks much slimmer than before, especially the suit worn by Xi Jinping looked baggy and ill-fitting. The joints of his shoulder sleeves were also too loose, with obvious sags and wrinkles. It felt like the suit was at least two sizes too big for him. This has aroused attention and speculation from the outside world. Some analysts believe that only if the body loses weight drastically in a very short period of time, will people feel that the suit does not fit well.
Moreover, when Xi Jinping spoke at an important meeting on 16 January 2024, judging from the close-up shots of CCTV, his face also looked gray and dull, and he was quite haggard.
If the above rumours are true, Xi's health is indeed in some condition, and it is a relatively serious situation. It is not a trivial matter. It will definitely have a major impact on Xi's power and the political situation of the Chinese Communist Party. Zhongnanhai is bound to set off huge waves.
At the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, Xi unified the country and wiped out all the mountaintops within the party. The degree of centralization of power exceeded that of Mao Zedong. Almost all civil and military officials in the court were his cronies.
After Xi reached the pinnacle of power, he not only failed to sit back and relax, but found himself in deep trouble.
On the one hand, there is the tremendous pressure from the international community, especially the Western democratic camp led by the United States, as well as the economic slump and serious public dissatisfaction caused by years of great regression. On the other hand, there is the increasingly obvious internal strife within the Xi’s army and the extreme corruption of the Chinese Communist Party’s military. After the Cultural Revolution, the crisis faced by the CCP has never been as serious as it is today, and Xi’s authority has never fallen to such a low point. Entering 2024, it can be said that almost everyone is waiting for something to happen to Xi and the collapse of the CCP.
Just imagine, in this context, if Xi has serious physical problems, will his power and the political situation of the CCP not be affected? Obviously, that's not possible.
First, once something serious goes wrong with Xi's body, he will definitely not be able to see things normally. If you are unable to see things properly, your control over power will be weakened. Once the control of power weakens, various anti-Xi forces may take advantage of the situation, create trouble, and try to remove Xi from power. In this case, can Xi’s power be stable? Can the political situation not be turbulent?
Secondly, once Xi suffers from a serious health problem and cannot see things normally, his close associates will all think of a common problem, who will take over from Xi? The issue of succession, which was previously shelved by Xi, will then surface. It is conceivable that in order to compete for the position of successor, the conflicts among the various factions within the Xi family army will inevitably become open and intense. In this case, can Xi’s power be stable? Can the political situation not be turbulent?
Thirdly, once Xi has a serious health problem and is unable to see things properly, Zhongnanhai’s differences on some major issues and emergencies will definitely surface, and various factions will definitely take the opportunity to compete for the right to speak and try their best to expand their influence. Under such circumstances, high-level decisions may be vacillated or confused. In this case, can Xi’s power be stable? Can the political situation not be turbulent?
2024 is destined to be a year full of variables, and Xi's physical condition is undoubtedly an important parameter that affects the overall situation.

Let Xi add fuel to the fire! Looking at his recent itinerary, is his cancer diagnosis real or fake?
Report by : Zhou Xiaohui / Editor : Fang Xun / Source: The Epoch Times / https://www.aboluowang.com/2024/0128/2010267.html
In the past week, disasters have once again occurred on the mainland, most of which were fires. In the early morning of 25 January 2024, a fire broke out at the Provincial Color Printing Factory in Fuzhou, Fujian. With flames and thick smoke billowing into the sky, seven or eight shops were affected. On 24 January 2024, a building fire in Xinyu, Jiangxi Province killed 39 people. On 23 January, a hotel fire in Jinan, Shandong Province killed four people. On 22 January, a landslide occurred in Yunnan, killing 34 people and leaving 10 missing. At night of 20 January 2024, an explosion occurred in an abandoned grain depot in Heze, Shandong Province. The news is still "the casualties are being verified." On the same day, a dust explosion occurred in a Changzhou factory, killing eight people. On 19 January 2024, a fire broke out in a student dormitory in Nancheng County, Henan Province, killing 13 primary school students.
The author heard in the early years that a folk magician once told the fortune of Chinese Communist Party leader Xi Jinping, saying that he had committed a crime after coming to power. If you pay careful attention, since Xi Jinping came to power, fires have indeed never stopped in various places. According to official data, there were more than 3,000 fires nationwide in the first half of 2023. January 2024 has just entered, and natural and man-made disasters have not stopped, and now so many fires have occurred in just one week. Is it not related to the party leader?
What adds fuel to Xi's fire is that at a time when he is facing difficulties at home and abroad, and disasters are spreading frequently, news has spread overseas that Xi is suffering from pancreatic cancer. On 25 January 2024, the overseas social media focus can be on how long Xi Jinping will not show up. If it is really pancreatic cancer, even if the gods come to save him, he will only live for half a year to a year.
The picture attached to the post is the source of the information. The content of the picture is that a person with the ID "Beijing Nurse" said that a relatively reliable friend told him that Xi Jinping had discovered pancreatic cancer during an examination. One evidence that Xi is rumoured to have cancer is that at the farewell ceremony for Zhang Kehui on 17 January 2024, Xi looked haggard and his body was thinner than before.
Pancreatic cancer is considered the king of cancers. Once discovered, it is at an advanced stage, and there will always be severe pain, and the treatment effect is not good. Huang Ju, former member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China and Jiang Zemin's associate, died of pancreatic cancer in 2006. He was tortured by pancreatic cancer before his death. Last year, Wu Zunyou, the chief expert at the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, also died of pancreatic cancer. Public reports indicate that in the summer of 2022, after the cancer metastasized to his lungs, Wu Zunyou underwent a second operation, and his weight dropped rapidly from 135 kg to 80 kg.
In short, if Xi really gets pancreatic cancer, even if he can take an injection at any time and cost millions of imported drugs to get the best treatment, it will only prolong his life. The question is whether Xi has pancreatic cancer.

There was a review article on the Internet titled "Secrets of National Leaders' Longevity and Post-Retirement Benefits." The article began with the example of Zhang Zhen, the former Vice Chairman of the Central Military Commission who died at the age of 101. He believed that the reason why Zhang Zhen lived to be over 100 years old was definitely is not because he has any health-preserving secrets. Health-preserving secrets do not work for ordinary people. Zhang Zhen's real "health-preserving" magic weapon is his status as a high-ranking official. The party and the people support him "at any cost", even if he does not live long.
Based on this, Xi, as the leader of the Communist Party of China, naturally has the strongest health care team in the country. Health doctors are by his side 24 hours a day, and they are always paying attention to various indicators of his body, including blood pressure, weight, and various subtle changes, and give solutions. If something goes wrong, they all need to take responsibility.
So, how has Xi's health been in the past half month? Here are a few of Xi’s public appearances:
On 26 January 2024, Xi delivered a video speech to the reception celebrating the 60th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and France.
In the afternoon of 24 January 2024, Xi held a welcome ceremony and held talks with Uzbek President Mirziyoyev. On the same day, Xi also met with Prime Minister Brown of Antigua and Barbuda.
On 17 January 2024, Xi attended the farewell ceremony for Zhang Kehui’s body.
On 16 January 2024, Xi Jinping delivered a speech at a special seminar for leading cadres at the provincial and ministerial levels to promote high-quality financial development.
In the afternoon of 10 January 2024, Xi met with Maldives President Muiz and held a video meeting with Finnish President Niinisto.
Public videos show that during Xi's appearances on the 16th and 17th, he did give people the impression that his face was haggard and his figure was thinner than before. However, he did not give people such a feeling at the event on the 10th. Although the official media deliberately modified the two meetings with foreign guests on the 24th, Xi still gave the impression that he was lacking in energy and seemed to be in a bad mood. He was still a little thinner, but compared with his state on the 17th, it was not specially obvious.
In addition to diseases, the causes of body weight loss are also related to mental factors, sleep, etc. Lai Ching-te's victory in Taiwan's general election on 13 January 2024 and the ridicule of Xi by the outside world should have a big mental impact on Xi. Therefore, Xi's poor mood, sleep, and energy in the next few days can also be explained, resulting in weight loss. Therefore, it is not sufficient to prove that Xi suffers from pancreatic cancer based on his condition on 17 January.
More importantly, Xi's health problem should be one of the CCP's top secrets. The health care workers, service personnel, guards, officials, etc. around Xi are screened at all levels for fear of leaks. Even if some peripheral personnel accidentally learn of it, the cost of leaking the secret needs to be considered. Therefore, we need to be cautious about how credible this overseas revelation is.
Of course, there is another possibility that someone in the top leadership of the CCP deliberately leaks the news, or it is true, or it is used to muddy the waters and trigger civil strife within the CCP, especially among officials in the Xi camp.
So, is it possible that Xi may get pancreatic cancer or other serious illnesses? From the perspective of modern people who admire modern science and technology, Xi Jinping, who has the best health care team, will most likely not get it. Even if he gets it, there will be various ways, including organ transplantation, to cure it. However, from a Buddhist perspective, if a person commits serious sins, he or she will have major physical problems.
Buddhism believes that everything has a cause and a result. If you sow good causes, you will get good results, that is, you will get blessings; if you sow evil causes, you will get bad results, that is, you will get bad rewards. There are also common sayings that have been circulating among Chinese people: "Good deeds will be rewarded with good deeds, and evil deeds will be rewarded with evil deeds. It's not that they will not be rewarded because the time has not yet come." If there is no retribution, there will be selfishness in the universe." "Those who do too many unjust things will surely perish themselves."...
During the more than ten years that Xi has been in power, he has persecuted all kinds of people; especially in the past five years, he has accelerated his left turn, antagonized the United States externally, supported Russia and Europe and the United States as enemies, suppressed private enterprises internally, and caused economic decline. At the same time, he carried out a purge within the party and strengthened the suppression of the people and the extreme blockade of the epidemic for three years have aroused people's dissatisfaction. Nowadays, many people believe that he "has never done anything good that benefits the country and the people, nor has he accomplished any great achievements. Instead, he has left unfinished projects everywhere." From the officialdom to the private sector, many people are waiting for something to happen to him. "From top to bottom, at all levels, everyone is estranged from morality, and the undercurrent is surging!"
