Mysterious Female Superhero Helps Beijing’s Poor

[bullets]

In May of 2011, a real-life superhero appeared in Hong Kong. Dressed in low-cut black tights and blue mask, she called herself “Zijing Woman” (紫荆侠) or “Chinese Redbud Woman.” She handed out food and cash to some Hong Kong residents. The mysterious masked female vigilante received a great deal of media attention in Hong Kong.
It seems that the Chinese Redbud Woman has struck again. Either that, or there’s a copy-cat do-gooder out there — which isn’t necessarily a bad thing.
On December 24, a real-life superhero appeared in Beijing, wearing exactly the same outfit as Hong Kong’s Chinese Redbud Woman of Hong Kong.
From China Hush:

“Today is my first day as the Chinese Redbud Woman, feeling a little nervous. Already prepared the military coats and food for the elderlies, also many thanks to the hand warner friend gave me.” She called herself Chinese Redbud Woman in her microblog, mysteriously appeared on the cold streets of Beijing on Christmas Eve, in front of the Wangfujing Bookstore, at the Xidan subway station and other places, distributed clothing and gifts to beggars and homeless. Beijing residents and netizens also started to talk about her.
Who is this beautiful woman? Why is she doing that? Reporter contacted the “Beijing Chinese Redbud Woman” via private message on microblog. She said that it does not matter who she is and also stated that what she did was not a publicity stunt, “just wanted to help these people who are in need.”
According to Sichuan Online:
Recently, since the female superhero “Chinese Redbud Woman” appeared in Hong Kong, another “Chinese Redbud Woman” also appeared in Beijing, also wearing low-cut black tights and blue mask, claimed on her microblog that she will continue to spread the warmth. Only a dozen of tweets, she already had over 7,000 fans. “Beijing Chinese Redbud Woman’s” first activity was on Christmas Eve: first gave the military coat to the old man on Xiushui Street, then sent food and coats to the elders in from of the Wangfujing Bookstore. Because Beijing Chinese Redbud Woman was only wearing a black veil, the old lady kept asking her if she is cold…
After reading Beijing Zijing Woman’s microblog, netizens both praised and criticized her, however there is only one consensus, her attire is not so suitable for the winter.

I want to be a RL bejing superhero nao.

[LibidoLoca]

Ah another "real". I applaud her charitable actions.

[Raiden]

I love her outfit.

[Ultra Lantern]

She's doing the right thing.

[Harls]

Oh la la~

[Matt]

Is it fair to call her a vigilante when all she is doing is handing out food and money? If anything she is a philanthropist in a stupid mask.

'Are you the real Chinese Redbud Woman? No? Then why do you dress up like her?'

[Slushy]

I expect her to be arrested by the Chinese government and executed by a firing squad.

[Spider-Vader]

Damn, she's just as hot as a comic super hero too!

But, it's nice to see someone trying to do something right in that country, hopefully she inspires more to do the same.

I meant woman's shoulder pads , damn typo

[Why Are You Crouching Spock?]

So basically, shes a charity worker who dresses like a exotic dancer from a kinky theme day strip club. If she didn't dress like this and wasn't extreamly hot, nobody would care.
They should stick her in a Baltimore housing estate. See what happens!

[Godzilla2000]

Oh you crazy fanboys and your crushes!

[kane9321]

those boobies

[LOBO3315a]

I salute her! And with my hands too!

[chamber-music]

She is hot and nice

[Duke]

I hope that whenever I visit China, she'll do a "heroic" act on me.

Seriously, it is nice what she is doing, but this whole "real superheroes," is little more than attention seeking. Charity is self-less. These people are making it about themselves with outrageous claims like, "We're vigilantes." The whole trend annoys me.

Actually, I would direct your ire at the reporters. They are the ones who have to drum up stories to make them seem interesting to the public. I'm sure she would have done her charitable acts whether or not anyone would have known about it.

If nothing else, she is at least making people aware that there are others out there who need a helping hand. Dressing up and doing charitable work isn't always about attention seeking for themselves. At least I don't think so in this case.
