since 2013.
The elder son of Xi Zhongxun's second marriage to Qi Xin, Xi was born in Beijing. He is considered a princeling but kept a low-key image in his early career. As a teenager, his father was purged, and he was sent down to the rural village of Liangjiahe, Shaanxi, during the Cultural Revolution. He lived in a yaodong there, joined the CCP after several failed attempts, and served as the local party secretary. After studying chemical engineering at Tsinghua University as a worker-peasant-soldier student, Xi rose through the party ranks. He served as governor of Fujian from 1999 to 2002 before serving as governor and party secretary of Zhejiang from 2002 to 2007. Xi briefly replaced disgraced Shanghai party secretary Chen Liangyu in 2007, the same year he joined the Politburo Standing Committee and became the first-ranked member of the Secretariat. Appointed vice president in 2008 and vice chairman of the CMC in 2010, he succeeded Hu Jintao as China's leader in 2012, becoming the first paramount leader to be born after the foundation of the People's Republic of China.
Xi's tenure as paramount leader has been marked by a sweeping anti-corruption campaign and a restructuring of the People's Liberation Army, both claiming prominent officials. He initiated a battle against poverty, expanded state-owned enterprises, promoted advanced manufacturing, import substitution, and military–civil fusion, while overseeing regulatory crackdowns on the private sector, notably real estate, technology, and for-profit tutoring. His rule has seen the strengthening of Party leadership over society, significant expansion of censorship and mass surveillance and a deterioration in human rights. During the COVID-19 pandemic, he imposed zero-COVID policies for two years and lifted them following the white paper protests.
