Following the Fifth Plenary Session, Xi Jinping dispatched central lecturing groups to various parts of the country to promote violent governance under the guise of lecturing, and to arrest dissidents and officials within the Party.
Hu Chunhua appeared in the footage of the closing of the Fifth Plenary Session broadcast by CCTV, with a copy of the Constitution of the Chinese Communist Party placed on the table, sparking outside discussion.
Former Chongqing mayor Huang Qifan was arrested. Hu Liren pointed out that this was not due to corruption or factional alignment, but the starting point of a large-scale arrest campaign launched by Xi Jinping to purge old retainers, falsify history, and clear obstacles to succession.
The frequency of Xi Jinping's name in the Fifth Plenary Session communiqué has decreased significantly compared to the past, sparking speculation from the outside world about increased pressure within the party and challenges to his status.
Xi Jinping issued fifteen tokens, intended to reaffirm his supreme leadership position and the centralized and unified leadership of the CCP Central Committee, but they were interpreted as a signal that his power was being challenged.
Xinhua News Agency issued an appointment and removal notice; Cai Qi concurrently serves as president of the National Academy of Governance. Hu Liren believes this is a signal that Xi Jinping is weakening Cai Qi's power.
The Third Plenary Session passed an economic decision. The head and main drafters of the drafting group did not include Li Keqiang, indicating a shift in decision-making power regarding major economic directions.
Afterwards, Deng Xiaoping issued a victory proclamation, defining the June Fourth incident as a counter-revolutionary riot.
Deng Xiaoping personally summoned the heads of the major military regions and branches, beginning the mobilization of hundreds of thousands of field troops to gather around Beijing.
Deng Xiaoping officially made the decision to label the students' actions as "turmoil against the Party and socialism" and established a leading group to quell the turmoil.
The Beijing Municipal Party Committee, at Deng Xiaoping's behest, reported to the Standing Committee of the Politburo, and put forward the theory of a "black hand in the Central Committee."
By emphasizing that "practice is the sole criterion for testing truth," Deng Xiaoping defeated Hua Guofeng and established a governing philosophy centered on economic development.
