The encounter happened after Huang Linxuan was selected as the only representative to attend a plenary session of the Young Pioneers of China, a mass youth organization, in Beijing on June 1.
A beaming Xi showed up at the occasion and greeted the 412 youngsters. Huang was among a few who got to shake hands with the President.
“Although it only lasted one second, I can feel he has a strong, big and warm hand,” said Huang.
