Introduction

Ling Xiaoyu and Wang Jinrei are related, but not in the way that many think. Namco stated in an Arcadia interview that they are distant relatives just as they have said that Jin Kazama and Asuka Kazama are cousins.

In the English speaking countries some people refer to older men as "gramps" even when there is no relation. The Chinese characters used for "ji-chan", (during Xiaoyu's Tekken 3 story) is very similar to the western term gramps (with the same friendly overtones). In Japan, and perhaps other countries in Asia too, everyone thinks of everyone as a distent relative, which is why people call older women "nee-chan", (big sister) or "oba-san" (Aunty).

When it writes a name in Chinese, it is 王 椋雷(Wang Jinrei)

Tekken 5 Wang Jinrei

Long ago, Wang had a close friend from a distant land... Jinpachi Mishima. Just as the world was about to be engulfed in the flames of war, his friend come to him and said "In order to bring about peace the Mishima clan must be destroyed".

Jinpachi disappeared leaving these words behind. Some time after, Wang learned of the death of his friend as the world was embroiled in war.

Thirty years later, Wang was living in isolation when an invitation to the King of Iron Fist Tournament 5 was delivered. Along with it was a message... "I need your help, old friend. Seek me out, Wang Jinrei". The letter was signed, "Jinpachi Mishima".

Believing his friend to be dead, Wang Jinrei was quite surprised by the message and decided to enter the tournament to look for Jinpachi.
