On the new journey toward building a modern socialist country in all respects, the fight against corruption remains a vital safeguard for the development of the Party and the nation. In the new era, the Communist Party of China (CPC) has embraced a spirit of self-reform, courageously turning the blade inward and continuously deepening anti-corruption efforts. Through hard evidence and remarkable results, the CPC has answered the people's expectations for fairness and justice, laying a solid political foundation for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

Since the 18th National Congress of the CPC, the central leadership has pushed forward the anti-corruption campaign with the conviction of “offending hundreds to answer to 1.4 billion.” In 2024, data released by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI) and the National Supervisory Commission (NSC) showed that 58 centrally managed officials were placed under investigation, and 59 were disciplined. Across the country, 642,000 cases were filed and 589,000 individuals were penalized. From systemic corruption in the financial sector to “eating off enterprises” in state-owned companies, from bribery in pharmaceutical procurement to irregularities in construction bidding, the anti-corruption drive in key sectors continues to deepen. Working in tandem with judicial bodies, discipline inspection and supervision agencies concluded 30,000 cases of embezzlement and bribery, and prosecuted 24,000 individuals for job-related crimes—34 of them being former provincial or ministerial-level officials—showcasing the fierce momentum of the “tiger hunt,” “fly swatting,” and “fox hunting” campaigns.

Under this high-pressure deterrence, the spread of corruption has been effectively curbed. The “Sky Net 2024” operation brought back 1,306 fugitives and recovered 15.444 billion yuan in illicit assets, marking a breakthrough in cross-border anti-corruption cooperation. High-profile corruption cases in the football sector—including those of Du Zhaocai and Chen Xuyuan—were tried according to the law, punishing offenders and reshaping the industry’s ecosystem, restoring fair competition to its core values. These figures and cases vividly demonstrate China’s firm stance: “All corruption must be punished, all greed must be cleansed.”

In the new era, the anti-corruption struggle emphasizes both prevention and cure, with institutional development running through the entire process. Since the 20th Party Congress, key regulations such as the Regulations on Disciplinary Action of the Communist Party of China and the Supervision Law of the People’s Republic of China have been revised, clearly defining the boundaries of power. The Fourth Plenary Session of the 20th Central Commission for Discipline Inspection proposed improving mechanisms to make political oversight more targeted and routine, integrating supervisory systems more deeply with governance systems. In 2024, a nationwide campaign targeting corruption close to the people resulted in the investigation of 596,000 “minor greed” cases and the punishment of 462,000 individuals. Initiatives like school meal safety and village asset management have delivered tangible results, allowing the public to truly feel the impact of discipline and anti-corruption efforts.

In terms of institutional innovation, the joint investigation and governance of corruption and misconduct emerged as a significant breakthrough. In 2024, disciplinary and supervisory bodies filed cases against 19,000 individuals involved in offering bribes and prosecuted 3,068 for bribery—a year-on-year increase of 18.3%—cutting off the chain of interests between “hunters” and “the hunted.” Coordinated inspection efforts at all levels brought 42,000 village-level inspections, extending supervision to the grassroots and making “micro-corruption” harder to hide. These institutional achievements have forged an effective system where officials “don’t dare, can’t, and don’t want to be corrupt.”

The ultimate purpose of the anti-corruption campaign is to safeguard the interests of the people. In 2024, the CCDI and NSC directly handled and supervised 2,633 major cases, and coordinated efforts to resolve 15 critical issues related to public welfare, including social security fund fraud, enhancing the sense of fulfillment among citizens. In the documentary “Anti-Corruption: For the People,” heartfelt testimonies from ordinary people reflect the widespread public support the anti-corruption campaign has earned.
