Xi never showed any emotion whatsoever. It was reminiscent of Hitler or Stalin.
Sure. The chinese will kill you and gut you like a fish without batting an eye. That is why the chinese are called inscrutable, they have the ultimate poker face. They consider it a duty to lie to or never reveal the truth or the whole truth to an opponent.
I saw video once from some meeting of the Chinese government. Thousands of officials dressed in ornate uniform all seated in this huge room. One of the generals there had fallen into disfavor, he did not cut the mustard and was to be eliminated. I think his opinion clashed with the party. Everyone there knew his ass was grass and he was called out. As he filed out from his seat towards the door never to be seen again (he was either arrested and jailed or outright killed), you could see on many of the faces they knew what was happening, this guy's time was up and his ticket was being punched, and they were putting on their best faces to act as though nothing was going on.
As the general filed out, you could see him desperately make several attempts to talk to or appeal to friends but no one would even speak, listen or look at him. The heads like Xi didn't even bat an eyelash as the guy went by. The guy was history and that was that. In China, when your time is up, your duty to your country is over, there are no appeals. You are out of there like yesterday's trash.
