Wen Jiabao, the former premier who seemingly vanished for years, has made a stunning reappearance,
accompanied by a bombshell rumor.
He allegedly proposed dissolving the Chinese Communist Party and splitting it into three
separate parties.
Meanwhile, Xi Jinping is said to be secretly labeling his long-time rival Zhang Youxia
a traitor, in a move designed to sweep up the entire opposition in one fell swoop.
But there's a twist.
Xi's own sister, Xi Chaoqiao, once had hundreds of millions of dollars in Bitcoin seized by
the United States.
Zhongnanhai is shaking.

Dissolve the CCP and split it into three parties
In recent days, information about Wen Jiabao has been surfacing with unusual frequency.
A netizen going by the name Yongheng Zhengji claims that Wen Jiabao has proposed a plan
to dissolve the Chinese Communist Party, and that the proposal has garnered support from
within the military.
Under this plan, the CCP would be broken into three parties, one composed of the Red Aristocracy,
one made up of officials at various levels of government, and one newly formed party
open to ordinary citizens.
The stated goals are to establish a new parliament, nationalize the military, and hold universal
elections.
If any of this is true, even a single element of the proposal would be nothing short of
fatal to the CCP.
The same source claims that Wen Jiabao had previously criticized Wang Huning and Ding
Xuexiang, reportedly going so far as to say it would simply be better to dissolve the
CCP altogether and be done with it, to everyone's relief.
As a result, factions within the CCP and the princelings reportedly placed him under quiet
house arrest.
However, under strong pressure from the military, they were ultimately forced to allow Wen to
appear in public and participate in policy discussions.
Political commentator Tang Jingyuan offers a more skeptical view.
While acknowledging that Wen Jiabao has called for political reform on multiple occasions
over the years, Tang believes this particular rumor is likely exaggerated.
He draws a parallel to the collapse of the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, when Deng
Xiaoping, deeply alarmed, secretly held very limited internal discussions about reforming
the CCP, even floating the idea of renaming the party something along the lines of a social
democratic party.
It was, in essence, old wine in a new bottle.
Even those cautious conversations went nowhere.
Today, with Xi Jinping still firmly in power and nowhere near being removed, talk of splitting
the CCP into three parties is politically tantamount to suicide, handing a knife to
your enemies.
Tang suspects the rumor is more likely a deliberate effort by someone to exploit Wen's public
reappearance to build him up only to tear him down, flattery on the surface, sabotage
underneath, designed to make him new enemies.
While none of this can be verified, Wen Jiabao's recent appearance at the Chinese Academy of
Sciences was itself highly unusual.
Under the unwritten norms established since the Jiang Zemin era, retired members of the
Politburo Standing Committee are expected to stay out of the public eye so as not to
overshadow the current leadership.
Any public appearance requires prior approval and must be carried out with the utmost humility.
Yet this time, Wen did not merely show up.
He was conspicuous, warmly and repeatedly greeting the crowds around him.
Some have said that among all the leaders the CCP has produced, Wen Jiabao is the only
one who ever truly had the people's interests at heart.
A man with the will, but never quite the power, to act on it.
From 2003 to 2013, he served as premier for a full decade and was widely known for being
close to the people.
During the 2008 Sichuan earthquake, he was the first top-level leader to arrive at the
scene.
However, because the military was under Jiang Zemin's control at the time, he was unable
to command it promptly for rescue efforts, and he broke down in tears right there on
site.
Throughout his tenure, he repeatedly spoke publicly about the need for political system
reform, making him one of the few insiders seen as genuinely committed to change.
For this very reason, his fate after retirement became especially sensitive.
After helping Hu Jintao bring Xi Jinping to power, allegations about the wealth of Wen
Jiabao's family were seized upon by overseas forces linked to Zheng Qinghong, triggering
a storm of public opinion and causing his standing within the party to decline rapidly.
His long absence from public view is no longer seen as simply a low-profile retirement, but
rather as something closer to a deliberate political erasure.
In February this year, a Lunar New Year greeting card, believed to have been handwritten by
Wen Jiabao, surfaced on the platform X.
The card, addressed to the principal of Beichuan High School, one of the area's hardest hit
by the earthquake, was deeply emotional, written in a firm hand, and dated February 11th.
Public interpretation quickly went beyond the card itself.
Many saw it as his way of telling the world,
I am still alive, I am still here.
This subtle reappearance has given hope to his supporters, and the recent rumors of his
return seem to carry the same message, only more strongly.
He has not disappeared, he has not been completely erased, and Xi Jinping still does not have
absolute control.
Is Xi Jinping determined to finish off Zhang Youxia at any cost?
Meanwhile, Xi Jinping is continuing to push forward the case against Zhang Youxia.
Rumors suggest that Xi has already labeled Zhang as a traitor, colluding with the United
States, and leaking military secrets.
It is even said that this characterization has been circulated internally within the
military, down to the officer level.
There are also claims that internal classified documents have been issued, alleging that
Zhang Youxia and Liu Zhenli disclosed military secrets to the U.S., preventing China from
launching an attack on Taiwan.
The implication is clear, the responsibility does not lie with Xi Jinping, but with these
two individuals.
Some versions of the rumor go even further, suggesting that if not for this alleged leak,
China could have already taken Taiwan.
According to sources, such notices have been distributed to units including the Southern
What we can see is that these rumors contradict those claiming that Wen Jiabao is seeking
to reform the Communist Party.
Because if that were true, it would imply that Wen now holds decisive power, almost
to the point of calling all the shots.
So which is true, and which is false?
According to Tang Jingyuan, the situation can be described as a mix of truth and fabrication,
falsehoods woven into facts.
Why say this?
First, it is almost certain that Xi Jinping dreams of convicting Zhang Youxia of leaking
secrets to the U.S., colluding with the enemy, and betraying the state.
This much is clear.
Otherwise, there would not have been earlier attempts to deliberately leak information
and use outlets like the Wall Street Journal to export and then re-import narratives, spreading
claims that Zhang had revealed nuclear secrets to the United States.
However, that attempt by the Wall Street Journal ultimately failed to shape public opinion.
Not only did few people believe the claims, but the outlet itself was drawn into controversy,
with its credibility questioned within the United States.
Many in mainstream circles openly doubted the story, arguing that it appeared too fabricated
and risked damaging the paper's reputation.
Therefore, Xi Jinping's intention to frame the Zhang Liu case under charges such as treason
and collusion with the enemy is likely real.
Moreover, he appears to be aiming for what could be described as killing three birds
with one stone.
What are these three objectives?
First, to turn the Zhang Liu case into an ironclad case, ensuring that Zhang Youxia
can never make a comeback.
Once labeled a traitor, there is no path to rehabilitation.
Second, to use the case to expand its scope, employing guilt by association to implicate
the broader anti-Xi faction, including party elders and allies of Zhang and Liu.
This could allow authorities to sweep up hundreds, even thousands, of people connected to them
in a single large-scale purge.
Third, Xi may also be seeking to shift the blame for any failure to act against Taiwan
onto Zhang Youxia.
The narrative would be something like, if not for their actions causing complications,
the great cause of reunification might already have been achieved.
These three objectives, both logically and in terms of motive, can reasonably be understood
as Xi Jinping's intentions.
However, why is part of this narrative likely untrue?
The key question is whether Xi Jinping still has enough power to turn such questionable
accusations into reality, let alone formalize them in official documents and circulate them
throughout the ranks.
Many analysts have previously pointed out that even some of his closest allies, such
as Ma Xingrui, who is seen as close to Peng Liwan, or figures aligned with Cai Qi, have
not been shielded and are reportedly under investigation themselves.
This suggests that in the struggle between what some describe as two centers of power,
Xi Jinping may currently be at a disadvantage.
If that is the case, how could he still possess the authority to push forward a treason?
Case against Zhang Youxia?
For this reason, according to Tang Jingyuan, Xi Jinping may indeed have such intentions,
but whether he can carry them out is another matter.
At present, he may be resorting to leaking information and waging a public opinion campaign
to seize the initiative.
As for claims that everything has already been finalized internally, that documents
have been issued and disseminated down to the officer level, these should be treated
with considerable skepticism.
It's not entirely impossible, but the likelihood appears low.
In any case, the Zhang Youxia case cannot remain unresolved indefinitely.
Whether he is guilty or not, and what charges may apply, there will ultimately have to be
a conclusion.
And it is precisely the question of whether he will be charged, and how severe those charges
might be, that has become the central flashpoint in the ongoing power struggle between Xi's
camp and his opponents.
As a result, new developments in the Zhang Youxia case are likely in the near future,
and more internal details may yet come to light.
Xi Jinping's sister targeted by US action.
Now we come to the next part, the hidden wealth of Zhongnanhai.
Cash stuffed into villa walls or Swiss bank drafts, these methods are already outdated
for China's top officials.
According to Sound of Hope, an overseas disclosure suggests that the Chinese communist elite
are in fact the largest anonymous whales in the global cryptocurrency market.
On March 27th, Guo Yongham, who had just stepped down as party secretary of Guangzhou, was
officially placed under investigation.
He is a close aide to Ma Xingrui.
Ma Xingrui himself has disappeared for four months, repeatedly absent from key meetings,
which in Chinese political language is almost synonymous with a fall from power.
But the real focus may not be factional infighting.
According to an internal Beijing source cited by commentator Sheng Shui, the true target
of the investigation is the 1,500 bitcoin allegedly held by Guo.
That amount is worth roughly $120 million, an enormous cryptocurrency holding for a municipal
party secretary.
And this is not an isolated case.
In 2024, Yao Qian, founder of the central bank's digital currency initiative, was arrested.
In his drawer, there was no cash or gold, only a USB-like device, a cold wallet.
Sources say it contained 2,000 Ethereum.
Today, money transfers in official circles no longer involve suitcases of cash.
All it takes is a USB device, plug it into a computer, enter a password, no bank, no
identity verification, and vast sums can be moved with just a few lines of code.
In October last year, the U.S. Department of Justice seized more than 127,000 bitcoin
worth over $1.5 billion, the largest cryptocurrency seizure in U.S. history.
Sources claim that a portion of those bitcoin holdings belonged to Xi Jinping's sister,
Qi Chaoqiao, and were confiscated by U.S. authorities.
Because cryptocurrency leaves minimal trace, it has become a favored tool for money laundering.
The Chinese Communist Party has also used it for infiltration and influence operations.
For example, in Taiwan in 2024, a former military officer was arrested for espionage with payments
made in cryptocurrency.
At the same time, crypto has enabled Chinese citizens to move assets overseas.
As a result, in 2021, the CCP imposed a sweeping ban on cryptocurrency transactions among the
general public.
Ordinary people's funds were effectively locked inside the country, while elites reportedly
rushed to convert state-linked assets into anonymous code stored in cold wallets, and
then washed them abroad.
A Beijing source told Sheng Shui that the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection
has established a dedicated Digital Asset Analysis Unit, leveraging national-level
big data and blockchain tracing capabilities.
Once cryptocurrency is withdrawn, its origins can potentially be tracked.
This, however, may not simply be about anti-corruption.
With China's economy under severe strain, what Xi Jinping is doing, the source claims,
amounts to asset confiscation.
From wealthy individuals to high-ranking officials, no one is entirely safe.
Three stories, one bigger picture.
The Chinese Communist Party appears to be locked in a struggle with itself, internally,
from the top down, and even involving figures long thought to have been erased.
Wen Jiabao's reappearance signals that some voices have not been completely silenced.
John Yuxia has become a piece on the chessboard of political purges, yet it remains unclear
who is truly making the moves.
And Qi Chaoqiao serves as a stark reminder to the world.
Even the most powerful are not immune.
Xi Jinping may still sit at the top, but that summit is beginning to tremble.
The question is no longer whether the system will change, but who will still be standing
when it does.
