Wealthy Chinese billionaires and elites are increasingly using U.S. surrogates to create large families, often with dozens or over 100 children, granting them automatic U.S. citizenship via birthright under the 14th Amendment. This trend, highlighted in recent Los Angeles court cases, involves remote management through IVF clinics, agencies, and nannies, costing up to $200,000 per child. Motivations include bypassing China's surrogacy bans and building dynasties, with some citing Elon Musk as inspiration.
