Alright !

Party's coming to an end . It's the beginning of the end or the end of the beginning for Zhongguo depending on how you look at the picture.
I'd give the CCP another 2-3 years before things start deteriorating RAPIDLY in Zhongguo . The good news is in 2-3 years the scheduled modernisation & theater ization program of the Chinese armed forces will be completed.
Add a year or 2 of buffer to this period & by 2030 so what if the economy of Zhongguo is in the dumps & the 50 cents per post you earn is reduced by half , possibly a third but nationalism will be dominating the Chinese discourse at home replacing the economy where the CCP will keep harping on a repeat of the century of humiliation preventing reunification of Taiwan by the Gwailou West to keep the attention of its Han slaves diverted .
Then the real fun begins. As I keep reminding you lest you forget -
A Kingdom Long Divided Must Unite & A Kingdom Long United Must Divide . Thus It Was , Thus It Shall Always Be ...
~ Romance Of The 3 Kingdoms .
Think of the debt of gratitude all third world countries including India would owe the CCP & its Han slaves when in attempt to confront the west , Zhongguo would have destroyed itself but brought down the west with it. Much like Germany brought down UK and France the reigning super powers of the day in WW-2 giving rise to 2 new Super Powers in the USSR & the USA.
