Lu Chi-Jang is a Chinese politician who is the current general secretary of the Communist Party of China, and the President of the People's Republic of China.

Season 5[]

In The Eagle, Selina accidentally sends a tweet and blames it on recent Chinese hacking, and places sanctions on China as a result.

In Camp David, President Lu travels to Camp David in Maryland to discuss the easing of sanctions put on China as a result of cyber-espionage earlier in November. Lu discusses the possibility of freeing Tibet as a result of easing the sanctions. Selina agrees, but Lu asks her not to make this public yet, and threatens her with emails China has hacked proving she tweeted the tweet she blamed on China.

In Inauguration, after learning she won't be President, Selina wants her legacy to be the freeing of Tibet, and asks the Qatari ambassador to speed up the negotiations with China so Tibet can be freed before Laura Montez is inaugurated. However, Tibet is freed minutes into Montez's presidency, and Dan predicts that this will put Montez in line for the Nobel peace prize.

Season 7[]

In Season 7, it was revealed that Lu is masterminding a plot to rig the 2020 presidential primaries so that Selina becomes the nominee but loses the general election to Montez, their favored candidate. Selina finds out about the plot and begs Lu to install her as President instead of Montez. Although initially reluctant, Lu agrees after Selina promises to give back Tibet, reversing her legacy as President. Lu is surprised that Selina would be willing to give up so much to become President again, asking her if being President of a democracy is "really that great", anyway.

Following Selina's victory in the primaries, Lu makes good on the deal and rigs the general election, retaking Tibet during Selina's incumbency.
