Request for confirming the veracity of the photo[edit]

Could someone confirm that veracity and source of the photo being used: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xi_Zhongxun#/media/File:Xi_Zhongxun_on_struggle_session_in_September_1967.jpg. The photo, which is profound, doesn't explicitly say that the person who appears to be the one being shamed is actually Xi Zhongxun, although it seems implied. Again, amazing photo, but I wish it offered some explanation given the high profile of any photo involving Xi Jinping's father. Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:184:4980:8450:D5E7:8567:A769:A912 (talk) 22:01, 2 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Founding member of the CCP?[edit]

Can someone tell me how this man can be the founding member of the CCP when he was only 8 years old when it was founded? Propaganda is loose and fast (and often false) now that his son is yet another shining star of Chinese nepotism. Beware.123.225.117.209 13:09, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It appears that someone confused "first generation" leaders with "founding member of the CCP." DOR (HK) (talk) 18:00, 5 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Claims of historical relevance or importance that would benefit from greater clarification and/or contextualization The article's revision/expansion includes information and claims related to Xi Zhongxun's role in China's economic reforms, and more information would be helpful.

For example, within the article, it is claimed that Xi Zhongxun, during the time he served in a military capacity in Guangdong, played a significant role in crafting and implementing China's economic liberalizations and opening. His role in Guangdong is clearly worthy of further exposition. With the first SEZ of Shenzhen often serving as the testing grounds for economically progressive policies, and the southern province of Guangdong's broader economic significance and vanguard role in supporting economic reform, it is broadly acknowledged as one of, if not the most economically liberal of Mainland China's provinces, and so additional information related to Xi Zhongxun's relationships and collaboration with Party and State officials during his time there would yield a better understanding of Xi's role in supporting/furthering Deng Xiaoping's vision.

In particular, more information would be greatly welcomed related to how Xi Zhongxun may have augmented, created, supported, and/or promulgated the reform policies associated with Deng Xiaoping and senior CCP administration officials. This information would not only improve this wiki entry, it would also serve to supplement the broader documentation of China's rising and return as a world power (with the world's largest economy); the addition of a personal narrative to an event of historic proportions (like China's economic transformation within a few decades) affords readers a more nuanced, fleshed-out perspective of the event. The inclusion of Xi Zhongxun's relationships with national leaders of the 1970's and 1980's (e.g. Li Xiannian, Chen Yun, Bo Yibo, Hu Yaobang, Zhao Ziyang) would be especially helpful in this regard. 66.67.56.201 (talk) 04:05, 14 August 2014 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.67.56.201 (talk) 06:14, 2 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Panchen Lama[edit]

The Panchen Lama was 13 in 1951. Was he really being sent to negotiate treaties? john k (talk) 12:16, 2 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

To add to article[edit]

To add to this article: a mention of Xi Zhongxun's attempt, at the age of 14, to poison one of his teachers for supposed "counter-revolutionary" behavior (for which he was jailed briefly); also: his execution of landlords in his teenage years. 173.88.246.138 (talk) 10:42, 3 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

1935[edit]

In 1935, was the form of execution Xi was facing being being buried alive? And what, exactly, did Xi supposedly do to warrant such punishment? 173.88.246.138 (talk) 11:56, 3 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
