There are many noble characters I wish to inherit from my father," Xi Jinping, then governor of East China's Fujian Province, said in a letter of felicitation to his father Xi Zhongxun's birthday in 2001.
Xi Zhongxun (1913-2002) was a leader of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and the state. Despite his heavy responsibilities, he enjoyed the opportunities he had to spend time at home with his kids.
