Xi can be recalled, he just hasn’t because he’s wildly popular. The other aspects, such as having some level of control, becomes “Xi is a leader.” Not a leaders are CEOs.
Hey look, an argument! Why’d you jerk me around seven times before trying that?
He’s a leader in charge of goddamn near an entire economy. Half of it - by your own reckoning - directly under the state he controls. The other half - as you say - “heavily planned.” How is he not as responsible for those industries as any CEO is responsible for their company? Is it just because he’s even higher up the chain?
“CEO” implies he does so so he can personally profit, moreover it implies he is uncontestable. Neither is true, which is why your comparison is akin to calling him a fairy.
CEOs get removed all the time. Fairies still don’t exist.
Do you wanna talk about Xi’s motives for consolidating power, and how money pales in comparison to deciding which rich assholes get disappeared or executed?
CEOs run private capitalist enterprises. The Chinese state runs public enterprises, so they aren’t run on the logic of capitalism. These public enterprises don’t even need to make a profit, because the Chinese state has fiat monetary sovereignty. In other words, it has infinite money[1].

Do you believe the people of China want Xi removed?
You’re having a completely different conversation in your head.
You are justifying a nonsense comparison for nonsense reasons.
Says the guy talking about fairies.
Says the one pretending leaders are CEOs.
Xi is neither a dictator nor a CEO, he is the head of the CPC and the president of China, a largely ceremonial position.
