The difference is that Xi is now the CEO.
What does that even mean? Do you think he personally plans and runs all of the public sector of the PRC that take's up over half of the economy?
Xi can disappear anyone he doesn't like. He doesn't need to personally oversee every company, the threat of being visited by police is enough to keep them in line.
Source?
https://www.bbc.com/news/business-64781986 You are allowed to use search engines btw, we aren't living behind china's great firewall yet.
None of it says Xi can kill anyone he likes, moreover this is BBC, which frequently pays to report anti-China propaganda regardless of validity.
Is actually what I wrote. But I get it, I wrote two whole sentences, that's a lot of information right there. And if you're not happy with the BBC, go look for other sources then. Like I said, using search engines isn't illegal yet. I certainly won't waste my time looking for a source you deem impartial.
See, I have done research, and have come to the conclusion that Xi can't disappear people willy nilly. The burden of proof is on you for making that claim.
They don’t need to prove anything, they have common sense[1][2] on their side.

Oh, so you noticed the US is bad, congratulations. Let me know when you realize China is just as bad.
Let me know when you realize anything that wasn’t spoon-fed to you by Western governments, NGOs, and corporate media.
“Just as bad” — are you fucking kidding me?
.
It's not just as bad though, you're just a chauvinist.
Who told you that?
Western supremacists think every country they're in a trade war with doesn't even elect their leaders.
