What political and social crises are hidden behind Xi Jinping's sudden release today of the "Opinions on Strengthening Social Work in the New Era"? | Real China

The video provides an interpretation of the "Opinions on Strengthening Social Work in the New Era" issued by the CCP Central Committee and the State Council. The host argues that the document indicates Xi Jinping is preparing to strengthen comprehensive control over society, enterprises, the internet, and grassroots levels. Linking this to the establishment of the Central Social Work Department in 2023, internal party purges, the real estate crisis, and the plight of intellectuals, the host warns of potential large-scale cleanup operations targeting social opposition forces in the future.

I was just about to rest, but I suddenly saw an article published just two or three hours ago. It was the "Opinions on Strengthening Social Work in the New Era" issued by the CCP Central Committee and the State Council, released by Xinhua News Agency.

This article is several thousand words long, and I have read it in its entirety. Do you all remember? Last year, I did a program when the central authorities released an article about an intra-party Cultural Revolution, which was about strengthening party management. At that time, I had already issued a warning that an intra-party Cultural Revolution was about to begin and that they were going to start arresting a large number of people. It was still very early then, Zhang Youxia hadn't had any issues yet; it was probably around July or August.

Almost a year ago, I did a program warning that an intra-party Cultural Revolution was about to begin. Later, many officials within the Communist Party were arrested. Many people were arrested in the second half of last year; this was the intra-party warning document issued by the CCP Central Committee at the time, which I called the beginning of an intra-party Cultural Revolution.

This time, regarding the "Opinions on Strengthening Social Work in the New Era," everyone can go online and take a look. This CCP Central Committee document is very important; it is a central document, a red-headed document issued by the CCP Central Committee and the State Council titled "Opinions on Strengthening Social Work in the New Era." I took a look, and to what extent has the CCP reached? It has reached the point where it wants to control the entire society.

The feeling this article gives me is that Xi Jinping might start a vigorous social movement in late August or early September. What is this social movement going to do? It is to clear out everyone who holds opposing views to him and drag out all those hidden elements. Xi Jinping might be planning a major purge this time, similar to the Cultural Revolution during Mao's era, and this is a social movement.

This movement might sweep through every corner of China, just like the Cultural Revolution back then. It will mainly focus on large cities; it will also be done in rural areas, but not as intensely, just like the Cultural Revolution back then. People in big cities might be in for a lot of trouble. What might happen this time? Intellectuals will likely be the first point of impact because intellectuals often have their own thoughts.

Of course, the current situation is different from before the Cultural Revolution and the Mao era. Many young people in rural grassroots towns and villages have now awakened. Therefore, this upcoming social movement might be even more intense than the entire Cultural Revolution; it is something people might find hard to imagine. I have been predicting that the impact and destruction Xi Jinping will inflict on the future of Chinese society will far exceed that of Mao.

Back in Mao's time, people were easier to deceive. The CCP would say, "We provide you with food; you didn't have clothes to wear before, and now we provide you with clothes." The entire society was relatively poor at that time, and under such conditions, many poor people still believed in the CCP. In the overall social distribution, some people did receive significant benefits.

But things are different now; it involves the entire population. Xi Jinping has carried out a nationwide robbery—do you understand? The robbery of ordinary Chinese people through real estate was a nationwide robbery. He made the people suddenly feel they were wealthy, only to have them lose all their assets.

For so many years, ordinary Chinese people have been tricked into it by the CCP, or rather, forced into it. If you didn't get in, your assets would evaporate significantly. Back then, people watched housing prices rise every day and felt that their money sitting in the bank—the 100,000 or 200,000 yuan they had worked so hard to earn—was losing value, so they had no choice but to take out loans.

To what extent did the lending go later? There were almost no strict approval requirements. As long as you had a job, or someone in your family had a job, the bank would lend directly to you, and the interest rates at the time were very high. The mortgage interest rates that ordinary Chinese people are currently bearing are around 6% to 7%, far higher than the benchmark interest rates at the time, which were around 5%. Because the real estate market was doing well and there were many borrowers, some rates were floated up by 20%, and some even by 30%.

So, the people were all trapped. Under these circumstances, the level of resentment toward Xi Jinping throughout society is extremely high. What Xi Jinping intends to do now is to control the entire society. This article explains it very clearly.

Everyone should know that three years before this opinion was issued, in 2023, Xi Jinping did one of the most important things: he established the Central Social Work Department. I remember the establishment of such a department at that time. What does this department manage? It manages society—the entire society.

His establishment of this department was actually in preparation for this opinion and the movement about to be launched. The Central Social Work Department was established in 2023; the Communist Party did not have this department before; it was established by Xi Jinping.

Why is it called the Central Social Work Department? Because after the pandemic, the entire society was against Xi.

The forces were very... the momentum was very serious. Under these circumstances, he feared that the people would revolt, so he established the Central Social Work Department. The Central Social Work Department targets ordinary people, infiltrating all the capillaries of the entire country, and then begins the crackdown. The crackdown on religious beliefs was already severe before, but this time, it is intended to completely wipe them out.

To what extent did it go later? Look, even the monk Shi Yongxin of the Shaolin Temple was taken in. As long as you have a certain level of influence in society, he wants to eliminate you.

Jack Ma was actually in a similar situation around that time; his entire influence completely disappeared. At that time, many people speculated that Jack Ma had fled. In fact, Jack Ma was abroad for a period of time; he didn't dare to stay in the country. Later, for some unknown reason, he went back; perhaps the central authorities or Xi Jinping gave him a guarantee that he would not be arrested. Jack Ma has handed over almost all of his assets.

Jack Ma is now trying to find ways to justify himself, but he is different. Jack Ma has connections with other "red princelings" and "military princelings," so Xi Jinping has to consider their feelings before moving against him. Furthermore, when Xi Jinping was in Zhejiang, Jack Ma did him a favor. When Xi Jinping was serving as vice governor, governor, and provincial party secretary, Jack Ma consistently supported him. Jack Ma was the big boss in Zhejiang at the time, with money, and he continuously supported Xi Jinping.

No one expected that Jack Ma's assets would all be taken away later. Many Chinese billionaires we once saw, heard of, and knew have had their assets almost entirely taken away. This includes Ma Huateng today; it is actually the same. These people are now just empty shells; Xi Jinping cannot let you stay for too long. After he amended the constitution in 2018, I said that private enterprises were going to be in trouble.

The opinion released today is very clear: the Chinese Communist Party is going to start strictly managing all enterprises, including non-publicly owned enterprises. It is fine for you to run a business, but your enterprise must be controlled by the Communist Party; the Communist Party must control everything.

The article also mentions something called the "Fengqiao Experience". Everyone should know that the Fengqiao Experience is actually about informing on others, about people exposing each other. Many problems are resolved at the grassroots level; when a problem is found, what do you do? People inform on each other, and that is really all it is.

So the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has always been evil. The past evil has already been buried and covered with ashes, and everyone thought that this evil locked in a cage would never happen again. After Deng Xiaoping came to power, the CCP later carried out a rehabilitation drive promoted by Hu Yaobang, rehabilitating some of the people who had been persecuted in various political movements, and even rehabilitating those who had been executed or driven to their deaths, just like rehabilitating Liu Shaoqi and Peng Dehuai.

Everyone thought that rehabilitation signaled that the CCP had begun to turn toward goodness, that the various movements of the past would not happen again, and that the persecution of intellectuals would no longer occur as it did before. But now, looking at it again, almost all professors with a conscience in China have been taken down, barred from the lecture podium, and some have even been locked up. As long as you speak the truth, as long as you are dissatisfied with society, and as long as you point out that there are problems in current society, you may face suppression.

In the past, when the National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference were held, it was a time for pooling wisdom. At that time, society had many problems, and people went to Beijing for the meetings. I had a few friends who went to Beijing for meetings, and they came back very happy because they raised all kinds of issues at the meetings, and these were problems they genuinely hoped to see resolved. In the end, after these issues were submitted as proposals, some of them were indeed resolved.

But now, if you look at Xi Jinping, when you raise social opinions again, it is completely different. As long as you voice an opinion, you may be sent directly to prison, or directly taken down. Today, there are too many social problems; it is not that they cannot be solved, but that people dare not solve them. Why? Xi Jinping's ideology traps you firmly. He wants to go in that direction, while you want to go in this direction. His strategy is completely different from that of the entire society; his strategy is dictatorship, while your strategy is democracy, which is an inherent, mortal contradiction.

How can you still raise all kinds of issues to him? It is simply impossible to raise them. Right now, Xi Jinping just arrests people; as long as he is dissatisfied with you, he arrests you. The people under Xi Jinping are the same—as long as you differ from Xi Jinping's ideology, they take you down, take you down immediately, and then investigate your historical background.

Once they investigate and find you have historical issues, they immediately pursue it; even if you have no historical issues, they will fabricate one for you and take you away directly. These past couple of days, the CCP has been arresting three "tigers" or six "tigers" a day. The so-called "tigers" refer to department-level, ministerial-level, bureau-level, and provincial-ministerial-level officials—that is, major high-ranking officials. Many deputy-ministerial and full-ministerial officials have been directly arrested, with many people being locked up every day.

I have said before that after a standing deputy head of the CCP Central Committee Organization Department fled abroad last year, he told me directly that 2 million people were arrested last year. While the CCP announced 1 million, 2 million were actually arrested. This year, the CCP will arrest at least 2 to 3 million people. How many were arrested in the first quarter of the first half of this year? Roughly 400,000 to 500,000 people, all from within the CCP.

What is this? This is an intra-party Cultural Revolution. From now on, once this new-era opinion on social work comes out, the people below can take action. Why? These thugs below are all waiting for Xi Jinping. Right now, Xi Jinping wants to launch a social movement, and the document is written very clearly.

The so-called social work is about purging those who hold opinions different from Xi's. What is the new era? The new era is the era of dictatorship, the era of the Mao Zedong era, the era of North Korea. Everyone is terrified to death.

Starting this September, though it may not have officially begun yet, Xi Jinping will definitely do some foundational work first. After a period of time, perhaps about a month, detailed rules for the social work opinion will be released—that is, the detailed rules for new-era social work. Once these detailed rules come out, everyone will know what to do. This is equivalent to an early warning signal, like firing a signal flare to tell everyone that comprehensive social work is about to be carried out immediately.

This social work opinion is nationwide; it is not targeted at any single system, nor is it targeted at any single organization within the party. Everyone can take a close look at it; it is very important. These are all historical documents. In the future, after the CCP collapses, when people look back at the history of the CCP, such articles will be extremely important. This is a directional thing.

When and how the Cultural Revolution started must have also involved an official red-headed document. Every time a so-called movement occurs in China, it begins after the top authorities issue a central document, providing guidance to tell everyone what to do, and then the massive movement begins.

This central document means that the purging within the party has come to an end, or rather is being carried out simultaneously; the peak of party purging has passed, and what comes next is social work targeting ordinary people. The document also states that online management must be strengthened, that internet control will become even stricter, and that all social groups are included within its scope.

From this article, it can be seen that since Xi Jinping came to power, he has never so blatantly expressed his intention to control the entire society. This is a major event. Tomorrow, various news outlets are expected to come out and begin analyzing and commenting on this article. This article is extremely important and may be a significant signal of social transformation in China.
