The CCP has recently strengthened restrictions on people leaving the country. It is said that at the end of June 2025, Xiamen, Fujian quietly "closed the city" and blocked all exit channels without warning. Airports, customs, and docks have completely stopped releasing people. High-end residential areas have set up checkpoints to check passports. Many rich and middle-class people who are preparing to leave the country have been interviewed by the police station. Their passports are frozen and foreign exchange cannot be exchanged. There is also a Xiamen University professor who was blocked and lost contact for just posting "No freedom, no death" on WeChat Moments.

In the video launched by the XX platform "Liuguang Yuyi", "Sister Breaking News" said that this action is not a natural disaster or epidemic, but a "quiet" siege. In the early morning, a large number of citizens received a "system upgrade" notification. The entry and exit windows were closed within a few minutes, and outbound flights were intercepted. The "Longguo Family" in the high-end residential area has become a key target. They were asked sensitive questions such as "Are you going abroad?" and "Are your children overseas?"

Immigration companies were closed down, many corporate executives were investigated, visa and currency exchange procedures were frozen, some people had sold their houses, quit their jobs, packed their luggage, but were notified by the community that they were "key exit targets" and were not allowed to leave the country. Some middle-class families almost collapsed to send their children to study abroad, and fell into a dilemma of "no way out" after the loss of the right to leave the country.

Not only the rich were hurt, but migrant workers were also implicated. A large number of foreign capital in electronics factories withdrew, and the landlord posted a notice that "only locals are allowed to renew their leases." A foreign couple said in tears that they were owed wages for three months and could not afford to return home.

What is worse, it is not safe within the system. Civil servants and state-owned enterprise cadres with overseas backgrounds were placed under border control or their mobile phone records were checked. A real estate executive was investigated for assisting capital outflow, and his family had already immigrated but also needed to "apply before going out."

Public opinion was completely blocked. There was no news of "Xiamen lockdown" on Baidu, Weibo, and Douyin, and related accounts were blocked and comments were banned. Xiamen has gradually become an "information black box", where outsiders cannot know the truth and insiders are silent. It is said that the U.S. company's representative in Xiamen has terminated cooperation.

Al Jazeera revealed that in the past few years, tens of thousands of Chinese middle-class people have "walked" to the U.S.-Mexico border. Among those who illegally entered the southern border of the United States in 2023, more than 37,000 were Chinese citizens. The middle class has long collapsed under the multiple blows of the housing market, stock market, and income. The zero epidemic and ideological suppression have made the people completely desperate and left their homes.

The whistleblower concluded: "The most terrifying thing about a country is not poverty, but that it begins to fear that people will leave." The changes in Xiamen are the tip of the iceberg of the national trend. People can't leave, money can't be transferred, can't speak, and can't even dream. The middle class is becoming a "crack class."
