Reality vs portrayal of President Xi.📜
Contrary to western portrayal, Xi is soft spoken, rarely raises his voice. He's been described by some in the Western intelligence circles to be incorruptible and disciplined, disinterested in money and women. But most of all, stoic.
This fits with his upbringing and childhood, where he spent most of his early teenage years getting into fist fights with Red Guards targeting his family, and in his later teens doing farm work living in a cave home.
(Yes, he is a southpaw fighter.)
Before the Cultural Revolution, as the son of a high ranking official, he could be living in luxury. But Xi's father, Xi Zhongxun, known throughout the Party as a stand-up guy, made it a family value to be frugal.
The Xi family kids were easy to spot, because they usually wore rather shabby and old clothes, compared to children of other high ranking officials.
Xi Jinping himself would wear hand-me-downs from older siblings.
This is why Xi Jinping is incorruptible, he experienced both ends of China, the inner circles of power in Beijing and the backwater village of Liangjiahe.
If your father's friends are the founding fathers of the country, and the 10th Panchen Lama regularly visited your home, would you crave for money and have materialistic desires?
On the flipside, would President Xi care so much for the poor in China, if he had not spent his teenage years in a poor farming village without his family? Would he form the tight bonds with the working class?
People with strong will reaches enlightenment during the most difficult times. And if said person were given an opportunity and a pathway to etch his/her name into the history books, then he/she would not care for material wealth.
President Xi is a unique leader chosen by the Party, to lead it during a critical moment in modern China's development phase. History will remember him as the savior of the Party and Country.
Contrast this with those western leaders who at best are incompetent and at worse... well go read the Epstein files.
