The hustle and bustle of Beijing's residents radiated a sense of determination and perseverance across the ancient city.
Zhongnanhai, the seat of China's government, sat adjacent to the world-famous Forbidden City, where a regal middle-aged man dedicated hours of his day reviewing and signing official documents.
President Xi Jinping performed his daily duties like clockwork as approximately 1.35 billion citizens relied on his administration for a brighter future.
Unlike his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, who desired the Soviet Union's reestablishment, Xi Jinping was raised in Maoist China when irrational government leaders led its people to starvation.
It was by no means the only example, as artificial famine and mass starvation had always been prevalent in communist countries such as the 'Holodomor', resulting in the deaths of 5 million Ukrainians under the USSR.
