【開放出版社新聞稿】2014年3月24日 香港
《中國教父習近平》原由作家余杰與香港晨鐘出版社姚文田先生商議出版，2013年10月姚先生在深圳失去自由，出版作業中斷。余杰繼續修改書稿，終於委託開放出版社完成編輯，於2014年3月24日在香港出版。全書448頁。港九各大書店經銷。
《中國教父習近平》是余杰「獨裁者三部曲」的終結篇。2010年的《中國影帝溫家寶》與2012年的《河蟹大帝胡錦濤》，出版後均引起廣泛的關注與爭議，「影帝溫家寶」並創暢銷記錄。由於中共新領導習近平「九權合一」的強勢作風，本書的出版更引起國際媒體廣為報導。知名學者鄭宇碩、夏明、戴耀廷作序推薦，指出余杰對習近平的價值觀、人格特色和執政本質深具洞察力。
余杰是中國「七○後」一代實力派作家。畢業於北京大學。1998年以《火與冰》雜文集成名。其後，出版《香草山》《大地上的麥子》《劉曉波傳》等著作四十餘種，曾遭到當局軟禁和酷刑，於2012年離開中國，攜家出走，定居美國。現為媒體專欄作家，並從事宗教自由和公民社會研究。

Open Books Press Release, March 24, 2014
Yu Jie's New Book, China's Godfather, Xi Jinping, Published in Hong Kong
China's Godfather, Xi Jinping, totaling 448 pages, was published in Hong Kong on March 24, 2014, and is available in all major Hong Kong bookstores. The book was originally to be published by Mr. Yiu Mantin's (Yao Wentian) Morning Bell Press. However, publication of the book was suspended after Mr. Yiu was deprived of his freedom in Shenzhen in October 2013. Yu Jie continued to revise the book and asked Open Books to complete the editing.
China's Godfather, Xi Jinping is the final volume in Yu Jie's Dictator Trilogy. Publication of the first two volumes, China's Best Actor, Wen Jiabao, in 2010, and King of Harmony, Hu Jintao, in 2012, attracted widespread attention and controversy, with the Wen Jiabao volume attaining record sales. This latest volume in the trilogy has attracted international interest because of its focus on the highly centralized power of China's current leader, Xi Jinping. Leading scholars such as Joseph Cheng, Xia Ming and Benny Tai Yiu-ting have written forewords for the book, pointing out the profound insights Yu Jie provides into Xi Jinping's values, character, and governance style.
Yu Jie is one of the most powerful and influential writers of China's 1970s generation. A graduate of Peking University, Yu rose to fame in 1998 with the publication of his essay collection Fire and Ice. He has since published more than 40 books, including Vanilla Hill and Fault Lines, a biography of Liu Xiaobo. After experiencing repeated house arrest and torture, Yu Jie left China in 2012 and now lives in the United States, where he makes his living as a writer and commentator, and carries out research on freedom of religion and civil society.
