07.01.2025 ⇢ Day Mountain Shook Holy City
⌨Xi's anti-corruption speech coverage dominated early morning state media, continuing the coordinated messaging from previous days. The narrative shifted abruptly when a 6.8-magnitude earthquake struck Tibet's Dingri county near the Nepal border. Death toll reports evolved throughout the day, rising from 53 to 126, with 188 injured.
State media maintained dual coverage of both the earthquake response and anti-corruption campaign, while economic developments emerged in parallel. Reports indicated new protections for businesses against arbitrary inspections, following previous days' coverage of central bank policy shifts. Chinese companies' strategic response to US sanctions gained attention, with firms increasingly turning to US courts for relief.
The revelation of Xi-Trump communications since the US election emerged amid coverage of broader US-China dialogue, suggesting calculated positioning ahead of potential US administration change.
