Beijing: Two Chinese online video producers, who are known for making fun of country's president Xi Jinping on YouTube, have disappeared recently, media reports said.
The two have been reported missing by the head of the Qiang Guo Wa Ha, one of several YouTube channels specialised in Ru Bao, a Mandarin term used to describe mocking the Chinese president, reports Asia News.
Online, several channels have been referring to Xi as Bao Zi, a steamed bun in Mandarin, ever since he visited a chain restaurant in Beijing and ordered buns in December 2013, the news portal reported.
Ru Bao channels also depict the Chinese leader as Winnie the Pooh, the animated bear made famous by Disney, reported the news portal.
