According to reports from outside the Great Firewall, Xi Jinping's organizational strategist Chen Xi has been detained by the CCDI. Related claims suggest this involves his control over cadre files and promotion lists.

Overseas political commentators Cai Shengkun and President Lu disclosed that Chen Xi has been drastically demoted to the vice-ministerial level.

Chen Xi, Wang Xiaohong, Cai Qi and others are suspected of setting an ambush at the Central Party School, taking coercive action against Zhang Youxia and Liu Zhenli.

On the closing day of the First Plenary Session of the 19th Central Committee, Chen Xi took over the Organization Department of the CCP Central Committee and the Central Party School, breaking the convention that a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau concurrently serves as the president of the Party School.
