Xu Xigen

Its publicly available biographical materials focus on its early appointments within the Chinese Communist Party. Regarding place of birth, birth date, and educational background, the open records do not provide clear details. The earliest verifiable point in its political career is 1928, when at the Sixth National Congress of the Communist Party of China it was elected a member of the Central Committee. Later that year, at the First Plenary Session of the Sixth Central Committee, its status entered the Politburo hierarchy, becoming an alternate (candidate) member of the Politburo and an alternate (candidate) member of the Politburo Standing Committee. This arrangement indicates that, at this stage, its party posts were promoted and it entered the core organs.

In 1931, its political standing changed again. Specifically, in January 1931, at the Fourth Plenary Session of the Sixth Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, it was elected a member of the Central Politburo, becoming one of the members of the party’s highest decision-making body. Subsequently, in November of the same year, it was elected as a member of the Executive Committee of the Provisional Central Government of the Chinese Soviet Republic, undertaking the executive functions of the provisional central government. The above appointments and duties show its functional participation in both local and central authorities within the Chinese Soviet Republic system.

In 1932, public records show it was arrested and defected. This event marks a significant dividing point in its public historical record, and related records did not show continued personal biographical information in subsequent public materials. Overall, the above information comes from publicly published historical sources; no other authoritative sources have been found to supplement its biography.

In the existing public materials, there is no information provided about its family relations, personal life, or subsequent whereabouts, nor any supplementary notes on its educational background. Therefore, the biographical points that can be confirmed here mainly concern its appointments at the Sixth National Congress of the CPC and the subsequent sequence of the Sixth Central Committee meetings, as well as the arrest and defection in 1932. The above content constitutes a synthesis of publicly available records on this figure’s early involvement within the party’s political structure.
