Chinese Netizens Marvel At The Handwriting Of Mao’s Grandson

Chinese netizens reactions to Mao Xinyu’s “calligraphy”, poking fun at his bad handwriting, especially in contrast to the famous writings and calligraphy of his grandfather Mao Zedong.

From NetEase:

Mao Zedong’s grandson Mao Xinyu’s family and calligraphy

I saw that a netizen was searching for Mao Xinyu’s calligraphy, so I’m posted what I’ve found and collected from searching online. Included are photos of his mother Shao Hua and son Mao Dongdong, with no intent on violating their privacy. Hope everyone can comment harmoniously, for reasons you already know!

1: Mao Xinyu with father Mao Anqing and Mother Shao Hua

2: Mao Xinyu, wife Liu Bin, Mother Shao Hua, son Mao Dongdong

3: Mao Xinyu’s family. I don’t know why but wherever Liu Bin is, Mao Dongdong is with her. Is it only because of a close mother-son relationship?

7. [Mao Xinyu’s son] Mao Dongdong’s “calligraphy”

At any rate, [he] still the descendant of a great person，sigh!!! In the Celestial Kingdom, anything is possible. Be more open-minded!!!

chenting9721:

Whose grandson is this?

xujian-129:

Haha, there is karma.

BEID:

[If] Chairman Mao saw these characters, he would faint from anger.

I am very pleased/satisfied by the 1 year old child’s calligraphy/handwriting.

chen8739:

In the future when my dad tells me my handwriting is bad, I’m definitely going to show my dad these beautiful examples!

hxmddl:

Do not mock and attack someone just because their handwriting is not good, bad handwriting does not mean one’s ability or character is bad, even Qin Hui’s handwriting was very good. [I] Really despise those who like to nitpick other people.

士你爹:

So shameful.
After so many years and he [clearly] hasn’t practiced [to improve]
His grandfather can use his foot and still write better than him.

After all, the person on the Renminbi is his grandfather.

xzy8981893:

Well written!!! But still not as well written as my mentally retarded cousin!!!

珠兒:

This is art.

dashihua:

This is the handwriting of a great man and today’s youngest general, and I really cannot flatter it. It looks like it was written with his foot. He is leagues away from his grandfather, and yet he dares to even show such handwriting. Incredible! Incredible!!! Fortunately China is not like North Korea [where power was passed down within the family]!!!

You people really TMD deserve to be beaten. No matter how worthless Mao Xinyu is, at least he didn’t go start a company, depend on guanxi or become some chairman of some institution. Look at the princelings today, how many are honest people, why don’t you pick on these people?  Did your head get kicked by a donkey?

balval:

Chairman Mao was born in 1893, 2003 was his 110 anniversary
The person who wrote this really is retarded.

Note: several of the pictures of Mao Xinyu’s handwritings were clearly Photoshopped by netizens.

How did he find a wife like that? Personals @ chinaSMACK.
