Public records identify Lv Yingjie as both a representative in the Beijing Municipal Assembly and a senior officer in the PLA Rocket Force's research establishment.
A published Chinese patent on cruise missile technology lists her affiliation as Colonel, Unit 22, PLA Unit 96901.
PLA Unit 96901 is the PLA Rocket Force Research Institute, headquartered in Beijing's Haidian District. Official descriptions identify it as the Rocket Force's only comprehensive full-time scientific research institution and its principal research organization, responsible for:
• Military and operational doctrine;
• Operational testing and evaluation;
• Overall weapons and equipment feasibility studies;
• Rocket Force-specific technologies;
• Engineering survey and design;
• Political work and Party history research.
Official Chinese sources describe it as the Rocket Force's leading research center, high-level think tank, innovation hub, and technical support organization.
Lv Yingjie's military career also appears in a profile recognizing her family as one of Zhejiang's "Most Beautiful Families."
According to the profile:
• She entered the Second Artillery Engineering University in 2002 as a graduate student.
• She graduated in 2005 and joined the Rocket Force Research Institute.
• She has served in the military since 2002 and is now a Rocket Force Colonel.
• The profile states that she continued working on the front line of military research even shortly before giving birth and has received multiple military commendations.
Her family has a multi-generational military background. Her father served in the PLA from 1975 to 1979, her brother is a Rocket Force lieutenant colonel, and Lv Yingjie herself became a Rocket Force colonel specializing in military research.
Her simultaneous roles as a Beijing Municipal Assembly representative and a Rocket Force research officer illustrate how senior personnel from China's strategic missile research establishment also participate in the capital's legislative system.
