EXCERPT:
A senior Chinese Communist Party official with documented ties to intelligence and state security organizations has acquired a historic commercial property located approximately 650 feet northeast of the White House grounds in Washington, D.C.
According to an investigative report from the Daily Caller, the 100-year-old Securities Building at 729 15th Street NW was purchased on July 21, 2026, for $8.4 million by the Philip Qiu and Family Foundation. District of Columbia Recorder of Deeds filings confirm the transaction details and the foundation’s role as buyer.
The new owner is identified as Philip Qiu, also known by his Chinese name Qiu Feili. Public records and translations of Chinese government announcements reviewed by the Daily Caller indicate that Qiu has held multiple positions connected to Chinese intelligence and state security entities.
His career began as a detective in the Criminal Investigation Team of the Shanghai Public Security Bureau, a local unit under the Ministry of Public Security. By 2011, while enrolled in a master’s program at Shanghai Jiaotong University, he had completed special forces training. University announcements from that period describe him participating in a training exercise in which he served as a commander and recorded the best individual sniper performance, using 42 shots to eliminate a significant portion of opposing forces.
