If I had to place a bet it would be that he will end up like Mao Zedong and his opponents like the students on Tiananmen...

I don't think he'll end up like Ceausescu; he'll keep his head whatever happens. But what could yet prove interesting is what the Party decide to do. If they feel Xi has overreached himself (which for now remains a big if), well, there's precedent for that.
