  • Due to the opaqueness of machinations of China's political elites, numerous conspiracy theories emerged on what really happened in Beijing on the night of March 19 in what became known as the "March 19 Beijing coup". A widely circulated theory from Chinese-language news portal Boxun alleged that Zhou dispatched paramilitary troops in an attempt to free former Dalian Shide executive chairman Xu Ming, and ally of Bo Xilai, from custody, so as to prevent Xu from testifying at Bo's trial. Another more elaborate theory by New York-based Mingjing News stated that Zhou Yongkang planned to launch a coup on the night of March 19, and that Hu Jintao dispatched the 38th Army into Beijing in order to protect the Zhongnanhai compound from incursions by Zhou's "coup militia". This theory posits that paramilitary forces stormed Xinhua Gate and were repelled by the 38th Army in a stand off during which gunshots were fired into the air. Thereafter Hu Jintao received a phone call from former leader Jiang Zemin, who told Hu that Zhou had no intentions of launching a coup, which de-escalated the situation. None of these theories have been independently verified, nor reported on by mainstream English-language news sources.
