Hu Xijin (Chinese: 胡锡进; born 7 April 1960) is a Chinese journalist who previously served as editor-in-chief and Chinese Communist Party Committee Secretary of Global Times from 2005 to 2021.

Hu is one of the most popular opinion leaders in China.[1] Hu's writing is often nationalistic and provocative.[2]: 302  According to academic Lin Mao, Hu genuinely regards himself as a professional journalist whose mission is to shape public opinion to make China stronger.[2]: 307  Hu has been described by various media of being a political propagandist[3][4][5][6][7] and was an early adopter of China's "wolf warrior" communication strategy of loudly denouncing perceived criticism of the Chinese government and its policies.[8]
