 Jiang Zemin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jiang Zemin speaking at the 16th Party Congress
Before he transferred power to a younger generation of leaders, Jiang had his theory of Three Represents written into the Party's constitution, alongside Marxism-Leninism, Mao Zedong Thought, and Deng Xiaoping Theory at the 16th CPC Congress in 2002.
Jiang was chosen as a compromise candidate over Tianjin's Li Ruihuan by Deng Xiaoping, Premier Li Peng, Chen Yun, and the retired elders, following the Tiananmen crisis.

 Stefan Landsberger's Chinese Propaganda Poster Pages--Jiang Zemin
Jiang Zemin was born in Yangzhou, Jiangsu Province, in 1926.
Once Deng retired in the fall of 1989, it was up to Jiang to formulate new, acceptable policies that were supported by all factions.
Moreover, even though he supported the CCP-decision to invoke martial law in Beijing, he was not associated directly with the bloody PLA-actions on the Square that followed.

 Jiang Zemin
Jiang was among the first local party chiefs to support this decision.
Deng chose Jiang as Zhao's successor because he thought of him as a man in favour of reform who could also show a tough side if necessary (if the party power monopoly was in danger).
As a politician, Jiang always knew where to stand.

 China - Capitalism - Jiang Zemin - Worldpress.org
This was until 1992, and the 14th Communist Party Congress, when Jiang Zemin was confirmed as the successor to Mao Zedong and Deng Xiaoping, and the green light was given for private businesses.
Pragmatic reformism, coupled with a will for power and a good tactical sense is the secret recipe for Jiang, who has marked an era that apparently will come to an end this November with the election of a new head for the party at the 16th Communist Party Congress.
What is clear, though, is that when Jiang retires, he will not buy a new sofa at Golden Magnolia.
