I mean, large portions of Chinese citizens are aligned directly with the CCP or members.

I dont think so. I will guess up to 10% of them are member of CCP.

Not sure what you mean, but all billionaires would either be CCP, or under their close direction. Companies over 50 employees have an on-premise staff CCP cell, and Xi is reversing the relative operating independence of existing companies.
The more money you have in China, the more scrutiny you will get at some point. Then you disappear for 3 months like Jack Ma.
It's rumored that each of the Top 100 CCP officials has $2 billion. Pretty impressive savings on a $22,000 annual salary, isn't it?
