It seems Xiaomi did a very bad job in introducing the MiPad 2. Given the short shrift it got in their final big presentation, that's unsurprising.
So they've issued a FAQ -- which can be viewed in English only via Chrome browser.
And this is a screwy translation:
Q8:小米平板2支持OTG数据线吗?为什么我以前在小米官网买Type-C转Micro USB的转接头,连以前的OTG数据线,不能用U盘?
A8:小米平板2支持Type-C转USB接口的OTG数据线。官网此前销售的OTG线为Micro USB转USB接口,由Type-C转Micro USB的转接头的方式不能使用OTG功能。
Q8: Millet flat 2 support OTG data cable? Why I used to buy at the official website of millet turn Micro USB Type-C adapter, even before OTG cable, you can not use U disk?
A8: Millet flat 2 support Type-C interface to USB OTG cable. Prior to the official website sales for the Micro USB OTG cable to USB port, turn the Type-C Micro USB adapter ways of OTG function can not be used.
So you also need to buy a USB-C OTG cable from Xiaomi?! And yet they promoted the ability to read flash drives via Weibo in an animated GIF without mentioning the need to buy a new cable!
