some info on her family: http://www.boston.com/business/markets/articles/2006/09/19/us_treasury_chief_paulson_vists_china/ excerpt: His meeting with Xi, a provincial Communist Party secretary, took on unusual significance because Xi -- the son of Xi Zhongxun, a leading figure in the 1949 communist revolution -- is regarded as a potential member of the next generation of Chinese leaders.
"He's the kind of guy who really knows how to get over the goal line," Paulson said of Xi, who has strongly promoted private business in Zhejiang, one of China's most prosperous and entrepreneurial provinces.

He is the son of *Xi Zhongxun <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xi_Zhongxun>*, who was one of the founders of the Communist guerilla armies in northern China and later became chief secretary to the cabinet under Mao.

http://www.austhink.org/monk/china_children.htm An emerging figure who surely will be open to serious dialogue about political reform is Xi Jinping. Born in 1953, he is the son of Xi Zhongxun (1913-2002), one of the founders of the Communist guerrilla movement in north China. His father welcomed Mao to Yan’an in 1935, at the end of the Long March, was imprisoned by him during a purge at the Communist base in the early 1940s, was purged again during the Cultural Revolution, yet rose to be a member of the Politburo under Deng Xiaoping. In 1986-87, he was its only member to stand up for the political reformer Hu Yaobang, when he came under attack.[xvii] <http://www.austhink.org/monk/china_children.htm#_edn17> The younger Xi has won his spurs as the governor of Fujian, since 2000, where he has laboured to make the province attractive to Taiwanese investors and to foster a market economy.

http://www.bjpiano.com/e-child3.htm blind little girl's efforts to be admitted to school: A few days later, I heard in a news broadcast about the China Disabled Persons' Federation. The president of that federation is Uncle Deng Pufang. I asked Grandma: "Do you think if Uncle Deng could help me to study in a school or not?" Grandma thought I could go and try. She found the address of the federation for me, but again insisted I must go and try myself. There was nothing else I could do. So I spent more than half a day to find it. Unfortunately Uncle Yu, the janitor said: "Uncle Deng is away." "Well, I'll come again tomorrow." I went there successively for three days. On the third day, UncleYu could not stop to ask me: "What do you want on earth to see him?" I told him that I would ask Uncle Deng to get in contact with the School for the Blind in order to help me enter and study at the school. UncleYu smiled and told me that Uncle Deng could not see me, but he introduced me to an aunt named Yang Wenjuan. Aunt Yang heard that I came all by myself. She thought it wonderful for a child of my age daring to approach Deng for help. A child like this could no doubt win a bright future. So she immediately wrote a letter to the school and assured me there would be no more difficulty left. I could enter the school next year. I returned home with joy to tell Grandma. Once more I tasted the success won through enough effort. Yet I did not relax. I heard in the news broadcast that a leading member of our national government Grandfather Xi Zhongxun was making investigations in some universities. I thought he must be concerned with educational affairs. So I wrote a letter in apple size characters to Grandpa Xi, begging him to help me enter a school. In a few days, his secretary sent me a reply saying my eager hope for school entrance really moved them. They had written a letter to the school. There would be no doubt about my entrance for study at the school next year.
