It's true that since the market reforms, the party has willingly looked the other way when it comes to corruption (black cat, white cat). It's pretty cynical to say that Xi's anti-corruption campaign is only about staying in power though, but it was certainly a strategy that won him a lot of support among intra-party factions because it allowed them to oust blatant offenders of rival cliques.
