Impressive. So much so that Japanese PM Fukuda said:  "I'm glad I didn't play ping-pong with him," Fukuda told reporters. "He's very strategic. I thought you can't be too careful." That makes Fukuda sound a bit suspicious and Hu Jintao sound rather sinister. Perhaps it's all in the translation.

Anyway, Hu's not as good as this guy.
