In Short: A California woman who agreed to become a surrogate for $120,000 discovered she is carrying a baby for Chinese gaming billionaire Xu Bo, who has reportedly fathered over 100 children through surrogacy.

A California woman who agreed to become a surrogate for $120,000 discovered she is carrying a baby for Chinese gaming billionaire Xu Bo, a reclusive businessman who has reportedly fathered over 100 children through surrogacy in the US, according to reports.

The surrogate, who wished to remain anonymous, said she was shocked to learn the identity of the intended father and was told there were close to two dozen other surrogates carrying babies for Xu.

Leaked documents obtained named Xu Bo as the intended father, and his former partner Tang Jing claimed on Chinese social media that he has fathered more than 300 children, including 11 she raised for several years.

The woman said she was not informed about Xu’s identity or the scale of his surrogacy arrangements before agreeing to carry his child, and she repeatedly tried to meet the man whose child she is carrying but was unable to do so.
