There were originally two gangs. The Shanghai gang and the you can say a
beijing gang. Jiang was the Shanghai and Hu was the Beijing gang. They had
an understanding to alternate every 10 years. That's two 5 year terms of
President. Xi is from the Shanghai gang so after Hu it was his turn. Xi then
proceeded to destroy both gangs and make his own gang. The Beijing gang got
fucked real hard in the beginning. The Shanghai gang not as hard. But this
current situation is looking to like a coup de grace to the Shanghai gang.
