True, they voted for him to remain in power for life. But I think he is pushing his luck ... if he is still in power this time next year I'll be surprised. I'd be more convinced of his popularity if 90% had voted for him, not 99.8% You have seen how he addresses covid outbreaks. I don't believe he cares much about popularity contests. The three thousand delegate vote (in behalf of 1.402 billion people as of 2020), effectively allowing Xi Jinping to remain in power for life, was a mere formality.
