The Real Reason for Ma Xingrui's Arrest: Ties to the Anti-Xi Alliance in the Western Theater Command! True China

The video revolves around rumors of Ma Xingrui being detained and the subsequent handling of the situation. It reviews his career path from a technology official to his postings in Shenzhen and Xinjiang, and analyzes the theory that he was purged by Xi Jinping for political rather than economic reasons due to potential ties with personnel from the Western Theater Command during his tenure in Xinjiang. The video also compares Ma Xingrui's situation with that of Zhang Youxia, discussing whether the military might intervene and the possibility of changes in the CCP's political landscape before the end of August.

News is now coming out of Beijing that Ma Xingrui may have fallen from power. I have been talking about the Western Theater Command for the past two days; in fact, the anti-Xi forces within the Western Theater Command are very strong. There is a rumor in Beijing now that Ma Xingrui has fallen.

Ma Xingrui has been consistently promoted since Xi Jinping came to power. He was originally a technology official, a director of the China National Space Administration, and an aerospace PhD. Later, Xi Jinping sent him to Guangdong to serve as Hu Chunhua's assistant, and subsequently to Shenzhen to serve as the Secretary of the Shenzhen Municipal Party Committee. Do you remember the major landslide that occurred in Shenzhen at that time, which killed over 70 people? That was many years ago, about a decade or so.

However, he continued to be promoted. Ma Xingrui was someone Xi Jinping seemingly valued. But within the Communist Party circles, many people both love and hate Xi Jinping. They rely on Xi Jinping for promotions, but deep down, they look down on him. In their eyes, Xi Jinping is like trash. Many people have now become part of the anti-Xi forces.

Around the end of 2021, Ma Xingrui succeeded Chen Quanguo and went to Xinjiang to serve as the First Secretary of Xinjiang. Being the First Secretary in Xinjiang is not easy; the job is very difficult. If something goes wrong and your methods are not strict, the entire region of Xinjiang will be in trouble. Once the people in Xinjiang protest, it becomes a political incident, and the overseas political forces are very strong and are all talking about Xinjiang.

Chen Quanguo used high-pressure policies in Xinjiang for many years, and the people of Xinjiang hated him very much. When Ma Xingrui arrived, he took over a very bad mess. It was right during the pandemic, do you remember 2021? Many issues in Xinjiang were highly intensified, and the conflicts were also very sharp. Later, Xinjiang became a place with guards and sentries every five steps. If you travel to Xinjiang, it seems very safe, but in reality, this safety is under the high pressure of the CCP.

I had friends who went to Xinjiang later and asked me to go, but I didn't go. Many friends who went to Xinjiang thought it was very safe. What is safety? Safety is checks everywhere. The CCP implements very harsh suppression in Xinjiang. The unrest that occurred in Xinjiang afterward was actually a backlash.

After Ma Xingrui arrived, things became relatively relaxed starting in 2021 and 2022. Ma Xingrui is a technocrat, and his methods were not that cruel. Therefore, during his time in Xinjiang, the situation there was relatively milder. I think Ma Xingrui was likely quite sympathetic toward Xinjiang. Chen Quanguo was known by the locals in Xinjiang as a butcher, and his suppression was extremely severe.

At that time, Ma Xingrui might have had some connections with people in Xinjiang and the Western Theater Command. He looked down on Xi Jinping and had different thoughts and opinions on many of Xi's practices. As his status continued to rise, Ma Xingrui, who was actually focused on technology and scientific research, was not suited for being an administrative bureaucrat. However, he later embarked on the path of an administrative bureaucrat, which for him was a point of no return. He might also not have been very discreet with his words.

Within the Western Theater Command in Xinjiang, there were certainly some of Xi Jinping's eyes and ears. He might have said something in certain aspects or offended Xi Jinping through certain behaviors. By around October 2025, Ma Xingrui was placed under control.

I think the current narrative in Beijing regarding Ma Xingrui is entirely plausible. The mistake Ma Xingrui committed was likely a so-called political error, not an economic one. Within the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), who doesn't commit economic errors? In fact, Ma Xingrui couldn't have made that much money. Currently, Xi Jinping's so-called anti-corruption and various other campaigns are very intense; the Deng family, the Jiang family, and the Hu family have all been taken down by Xi Jinping, with so many assets seized. Ma Xingrui comes from a miner's family; there are rumors that he has some kinship with Peng Liyuan, but I don't think that's very reliable.

Under these circumstances, Ma Xingrui being taken down this time, suddenly arrested, placed under control last year, and then having his handling announced—immediately stripping him of all party membership and administrative positions within the CCP—makes me think Ma Xingrui probably didn't have much of a backer. If he really had a backer, or if he were a relative of Peng Liyuan, I think they would have spared him.

Some people in Beijing are telling me today that it is entirely possible that Ma Xingrui had contact with people in the Western Theater Command and was linked to those who oppose Xi. Look, from the time Xi Jinping took power until now, the entire economy has collapsed to this extent, and high-pressure policies have been implemented on the ordinary people of the whole country, returning to the path of dictatorship. Everyone wants to oppose Xi; even a fool would want to oppose Xi.

Xi Jinping boasts every day, saying that the party, the government, the military, and the people all support him, but that is bullshit. You don't believe it? Just ask Xi Jinping to go for a walk on the street alone and try it; he would be killed before he knew it. This is entirely possible.

So, there is a new narrative about Ma Xingrui now, and I will inform everyone. This person may have committed a huge political error. To Xi Jinping, he might internally be a very strong anti-Xi force. Now we have to see if the people in the theater command will protect him, and whether they will protect him like they protected Zhang Youxia.

I have already made a video telling everyone that Zhang Youxia has moved from the arrest stage to the house arrest stage, which means he is currently recovering. Xi Jinping has not taken very strict coercive measures against him, and he already has relatively independent and relatively free space.

Now many red princelings and military princelings are trying to save Zhang Youxia; they are all trying to rescue him. The Zhang Youxia incident has caused huge fluctuations in the entire military region and the entire military, which is a result that Xi Jinping can hardly bear. Once the military moves, it will be very difficult for Xi Jinping to hold onto his position. Now we don't even know; maybe one day a unit will charge directly into Zhongnanhai, so what will Xi Jinping do? He has no way to explain it.

As long as there is the slightest disturbance, Xi Jinping will have no way to explain it; he doesn't even know what the outcome will be the next day. So now that Ma Xingrui has been arrested, we have to see if the people in the Western Theater Command will save him. I think there is still hope for him. If this narrative holds, I believe he still has hope. If he had no contact with the Western Theater Command and it was purely Xi Jinping wanting to get rid of him, then this person is beyond saving.

Therefore, the Ma Xingrui incident may still have room for a reversal. His case is somewhat similar to Zhang Youxia's. If there is some contact with people in the military now, I think as long as the military exerts pressure on Xi Jinping, the situation could change.

I'll say it again: by the end of August, the political situation in China will be decided. There is a month and a half left. Today is already July 16, and tomorrow is July 17. In a month and a half, the political situation of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) will be decided. Whether Xi Jinping can continue to hold power, or whether he cannot, or if he steps down implicitly, will be decided in this month and a half. The current situation of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is extremely dangerous.
