I have been diving in this forum for a long time, and what I found very interesting is that most of the overseas public opinion, anti-Xi is the mainstream, which is completely opposite to that in China (there is no quantitative basis for this judgment, nor can there be any quantitative indicators, it comes from my many years of planning Shui Weibo knows Douban Hupu, etc. and life experience, daily chat. Welcome to refute). Want to collect the reasons for everyone's disgust? (The more important ones, the minutiae are less important)

Let me list the main reasons for my support, and let me throw some light on it:

1 Most importantly, vigorously fight corruption. Friends who lived in the mainland during the Hu and Wen period can recall the rampant corruption during that time. It is no exaggeration to say that at that time there was a strong sense of national subjugation and collapse. No matter at the grassroots level, you have to go to the top to do everything, or at the top, Wen Jiabao's son will transfer state-owned assets as chairman. After Xi came up, it cannot be said that corruption has been completely eradicated, at least there has been a great improvement. For example, he restricted the consumption of three public services. In the past, public service consumption was basically the public welfare of civil servants and employees of state-owned enterprises. ?) And what I admire is that he directly arrested two vice-chairmen of the Central Military Commission: Generally speaking, the most difficult part of reform is anti-corruption, because it involves the interests of many powerful people, which is the riskiest, and the military is even more difficult. If you are sensitive, you might change the military. Note: The vice chairman of the Military Commission is equivalent to the top leader of the PLA (the chairman is also the leader of the state according to regulations). In fact, if there are soldiers in the family, it should be obvious: in the era when the military was doing business 20 years ago, the PLA was really lax. Buying and selling officials is the norm. The current PLA gives me the feeling that it is full of murderousness. Through the anti-corruption campaign, the national cohesion in the Xi era is much higher than before.

2 (I think it is a little bit of my bias) I think that to manage China, leaders must

a) Have experience in grass-roots management (Li Keqiang did not, his first job should be the Youth League Committee of Peking University, also known as the Youth League) Xi worked from the production team secretary, county party secretary, mayor and governor all the way up. This is also what puzzles me about the Hong Kong District Council election: many young people who have just left the school, because they shouted some slogans and appeared to be activists in the parade, participated in the election, and many others were elected (there must be some Something else excels, but I think that's the main reason)? I know the current anti-communist sentiment in Hong Kong society, but you can compare it to mature democracies in the West. Which parliament is basically occupied by middle-aged and elderly people. After all, managing the country still requires calm and experience. Can 30% of Hong Kong's parliamentarians be under the age of 30 and can they really exercise their powers well? We can slowly observe over the next few years...

b) Endured hardships (I am actually very worried that after Xi Jinping, people who experienced the Anti-Japanese War and the Cultural Revolution went to the mountains and the countryside basically disappeared. If the next generation of leaders have not experienced hardships, will they be able to be good helmsmen)

3 Military reforms. Xi has a military background (also known as a princeling. In fact, I think the princeling is a good thing, which means that he can achieve many reforms that his predecessors could not). Frankly speaking, the arrest of the vice chairman of the Military Commission mentioned in the first paragraph is also because of his father's background, he can suppress these people. As a military fan, I am very satisfied with the progress of PLA in terms of equipment and conscious thinking over the years (insert a sentence that many people may have the impression of the progress of China's military power is equipment such as j20,055, but I think the progress of combat thinking , like military reform, synthetic brigades, more comforting)

4 In a more general sense, the strategies of these years, whether internal or external, such as the Belt and Road Initiative, win over Europe, and deploy in Africa, I think they are quite insightful. Of course, it's too early to tell whether it will succeed or not. Let's see how cpc performs in the "big change unseen in a century".

5 It is an old saying that the economic development in recent years is not bad, there is no hard landing, the rapid development of high-speed rail, electronic economy and the like has facilitated daily life. Of course, it can't be attributed to him, but as the general manager, he still deserves a little support. What is the difference between today's seniors who grew up in difficult years? It's a topic worth looking forward to. For example, the proportion of young hawks is much higher today. Are they keyboard warriors, or are they more confident?)

I can think of so much for the time being, welcome objections, just don't buckle the hat
