Li Tianyi (Chinese: 李天一; pinyin: Lǐ Tiānyī; born April 1996) is the son of Chinese singers Li Shuangjiang and Meng Ge. He became famous after he was accused (and later convicted) of leading a gang rape in 2013, and was watched closely in China as an example of the treatment accorded to members of the elite.[1]
Li Tianyi was born in Beijing in 1996. His father Li Shuangjiang and mother Meng Ge are both famous singers.
Li attended Zhongguancun Third Primary School and the High School Affiliated to Renmin University of China.[2] Later, he went to the United States and attended Shattuck-Saint Mary's in Faribault, Minnesota.[2]
Li studied piano under Han Jianming (韩剑明), a professor at the Central Conservatory of Music, beginning when he was four years old. Li began to learn calligraphy under Fang Zhiwen (方志文), a professor at Tsinghua University, when he was eight years old. In 2006, he joined the Chinese youth ice hockey team.[3]
