Daughter of “Communist spy king” falsifies history of pneumonia in Wuhan

Xiong Lei is the daughter of long-time Chinese Communist Party intelligence agent Xiong Xianghui, and is currently the vice president of the Xinhua News Agency’s China Special Report Service.

As the Wuhan pneumonia epidemic continues to spread across China and is suspected to be out of control, the Chinese Communist Party’s official media released an article blaming the U.S. for the 2003 SARS epidemic, in addition to accusing the U.S. of being responsible for the epidemic.

As we all know, Wuhan pneumonia has been ravaging the world for a year, causing significant damage to both human lives and the economy. However, the Chinese government has refused to acknowledge responsibility for the source of the virus, not only obstructing scientists from investigating it, but even using all propaganda tools such as state television, radio, newspapers and broadcasts to try to lead the way. In addition to Foreign Minister Wang Yi’s recent claim during a visit that “there are more and more studies proving that the outbreak is a multi-location global outbreak,” another recent article written by Xiong Lei, daughter of “CCP spy king” Xiong Xianghui, alleges that the U.S. is behind Wuhan pneumonia. The article, titled The U.S. is behind Wuhan pneumonia.

Xiong Lei’s article, titled “From Genetic Controversy to the New Epidemic: A Journalist’s Record and Reflections,” is more than 20,000 words long and quotes an unnamed biologist as saying that “SARS is not a biological war, but it has fully achieved the effect of biological war” and that “It was so targeted that the vast majority of those infected were predominantly Chinese of Asian descent.”

Xiong Lei even cites the writings of Chinese angler Tong Zeng, saying that “the fact that U.S. scientific research institutions hunted Chinese genetic samples all those years, combined with the phenomenon that Chinese are particularly susceptible to the SARS virus, suggests a hypothesis that SARS may be a genetic weapon against the Chinese.” Although Tong Zeng himself admits that the remarks are limited to hypotheses, Xiong Lei stresses that the issue is important and that the Chinese need to be “vigilant”.

She also linked Wuhan pneumonia to SARS, saying, “Think of how many samples of our asthma genes Harvard took.” She also alleged that during the SARS epidemic and the current one, including Tamiflu and Remdesivir, the drug companies had a U.S. background, and that “it would be a hell of a thing if there wasn’t something fishy going on here.

Of course, Xiong Lei also did not forget to promote the Communist Party’s achievements in fighting the epidemic: “That we in China, with the lessons of SARS, have brought our strengths to the forefront and successfully fought the epidemic.”

After the related article was released, it sparked the attention of media on both sides of the Taiwan Strait and gave reports, but many people questioned, “Why was Australia’s request to investigate the source of the new coronavirus (also known as the Chinese Communist virus, COVID-19) sanctioned by the Chinese Communist Party? Why did the CCP demolish the Wuhan seafood market where it supposedly first started?” “If the virus is from the U.S., why not investigate the source of the virus? The U.S. has agreed to investigate, China is against it, why is that?”

“The more this happens, the more we see that the Communist Party is weak-minded.” Netizens have spat out, “Simply say that the virus was brought to China from all over the world” and “Xiong Lei is just like her father, the only one who is afraid of the world.” “There are too many logic problems. If it is man-made, China engaged in a clearer logic.”

Some netizens also lamented that “China is the earliest large-scale outbreak of the country hey, Italy are later than China almost a month, on this popular situation now, want to dump foreign countries, this logic can not be self-consistent, it is really internal propaganda brainwashing wall of people.”

According to public information, Xiong Lei is currently the vice president and senior editor of the Xinhua News Agency’s “China Feature Agency”; she is also the executive director of the China Society for Human Rights Studies and vice president of the Capital Women Journalists Association.

According to public reports, Xiong Lei’s father, Xiong Xianghui, was a spy in the southern part of the national army for 12 years before the establishment of the Chinese Communist Party in 1949, and worked in the diplomatic circles of the Chinese Communist government after 1949, serving as vice minister of the CPC Central Committee’s Investigation Department and secretary and vice chairman of the party group of China International Trust Investment Corporation. Mao Zedong once said that Xiong Xianghui’s underground intelligence work was “one man can top several divisions”, which shows that the Chinese Communist Party used many despicable means to defeat the Kuomintang.
