The Zhongnanhai War on Wang Xiaohong—Can Xi Jinping Hold On?

Why is Beijing quietly dismantling the power network around Wang Xiaohong—China’s Minister of Public Security and one of Xi’s most important political pillars?

A sudden wave of personnel changes is sweeping China’s Ministry of Public Security. Three of Wang Xiaohong’s closest allies have been transferred away, while two new senior officials have been placed beside him to restrict his authority and investigate the networks surrounding him.

But this story reaches far beyond Wang Xiaohong.

Just weeks before the CCP’s Fifth Plenum, Xi and Cai Qi are being sent away from Beijing again and again. Xi is scheduled to spend nearly half of September outside the capital—even though this is one of the most dangerous moments of his political career.

Is Beijing using the ancient strategy of “Luring the Tiger Away from the Mountain” to keep Xi from interfering with the plans being made inside Zhongnanhai?

On the surface, Xi still looks like the man in charge. But the team that kept him in power is falling apart. How much longer can he hold on?
