25.01.2026 ⇢ The Day of the Military Purge Fallout
⌨On January 25, 2026, Chinese editorial priorities diverged sharply as state media attempted to mask a high-level military crisis with a campaign of ideological conformity. Throughout the morning, mainland outlets including Xinhua and People's Daily synchronized reports on the 'First Lesson' for provincial cadres, framing the transition to the 15th Five-Year Plan as a moment of absolute party discipline and ecological focus.
By early afternoon, this narrative of internal cohesion was challenged by external reporting from the South China Morning Post and BBC Chinese. These outlets prioritized the unfolding investigation into General Zhang Youxia, China’s top-ranking uniformed officer, and General Liu Zhenli. While state media published accounts of Xi Jinping’s diplomatic successes in Uganda and Uruguay to project stability, regional observers focused on the 'sharp warning' issued to the PLA leadership through the rapid ousting of the two generals, characterizing the move as a major purge to ensure party purity during the strategic transition.

⌨Mainland state media have synchronized around the 'First Lesson' for provincial leaders, framing the transition to the 15th Five-Year Plan as a critical historical junction requiring absolute party discipline and practical action (People's Daily, CCTV, Xinhua, Guangming Daily, China Economic Net). Conversely, regional and international outlets prioritize internal instability, specifically the investigation into General Zhang Youxia and public frustration over reported labor statistics (BBC, China Digital Times).

⌨Mainland state media have reached a peak of synchronization, focusing on the 'Opening Lesson' for provincial leaders as the primary vehicle for political indoctrination and 15th Five-Year Plan implementation (CCTV, Xinhua News, People's Daily, Guangming Daily, China Daily, Beijing Daily, Huanqiu, China Economic Net). This internal cohesion contrasts with Hong Kong and international reporting, which remains focused on military instability following the investigation of General Zhang Youxia (BBC Chinese, SCMP).
