China's President Xi's only daughter Xi Mingze, married an American and lives here in the United States.
|
| Of course... she and her mom split with Xi over Hong Kong a few years ago. |
Her profession is "Researcher" but there are no known topics or categories available of any of her research.
| Older Info — New Zealand Herald article from 2020: |
She's the only child of the world's second most powerful leader – but unlike Ivanka Trump or Malia and Sasha Obama, few people even know Xi Mingze's name.
Aside from a few basic biographical details, very little is known about the cherished daughter of Chinese President Xi Jinping and his second wife, famous folk singer Peng Liyuan.
The 27-year-old was born on June 27, 1992, and studied French at her high school, Hangzhou Foreign Languages School.
According to the China Times, she was nicknamed "Xiao Muzi" by her grandfather, Communist revolutionary and former state official Xi Zhongxun, "designating her as an innocent and decent person who is useful to society".
She is "reputed to be a low-key and easygoing girl, who counts reading and fashion among her hobbies", according to the brief 2012 profile in the Taiwanese newspaper.
In 2008, after the devastating Sichuan earthquake, the then 16-year-old asked her school for a leave of absence to spend a week assisting in disaster relief efforts and care for injured survivors, her mother told local media at the time.
Asked whether she was worried about her daughter's safety, Peng said: "As the earthquake claimed so many lives and triggered such a big disaster, my daughter should go to the frontline to help. During seven days as a volunteer, she worked hard and never complained. She learned a lot and also made lots of local friends. She said people in Sichuan are nice, strong and kind."
Said to be surrounded 24 hours a day by Chinese bodyguards, Xi Mingze's privacy is jealously guarded by her father.
Like Vladimir Putin with his "secret" daughters, the Chinese leader fiercely protects her from the prying eyes of the outside world – often using the Communist dictatorship's vast internet censorship powers.
She travelled to the US in 2010 to study at Harvard University in Massachusetts under a pseudonym, but it wasn't until 2012 that many people had even heard of her.
The Washington Post first reported in May that year that she was an undergraduate at the prestigious Ivy League school, but included few other details save that her presence was "low-key" and that "fellow students describe [her] as studious and discreet".
The story noted that she had attended a discussion about the "political tumult convulsing China's ruling Communist Party", where the "demure female undergraduate with a direct stake in the outcome" sat "listening intently from the top row of the lecture hall".
