'''Hu Chunhua''' ({{zh|s=胡春华}}; born April 1963) is a Chinese politician. He currently serves as a [[Vice Chairperson of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference|vice chairman of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference]] since 2023. From 2018 to 2023, he served as [[Vice Premier of China|vice premier of China]].

Born in [[Yichang]], [[Hubei]], Hu first entered politics by working as a cadre of the [[Communist Youth League of China|Communist Youth League]] in the [[Tibet Autonomous Region]]. After serving various roles in Tibet, he rose through the ranks of the Communist Youth League, eventually returning to Beijing and becoming its [[First Secretary of the Communist Youth League of China|first secretary]] in 2006. In 2008, he was appointed the governor of [[Hebei]]. He was reassigned to the post of [[Chinese Communist Party]] (CCP) [[Chinese Communist Party Committee Secretary|committee secretary]] of Inner Mongolia in 2009, a post he held until 2012.

In 2012, he became the CCP secretary of Guangdong, as well as a member of the [[Politburo of the Chinese Communist Party|CCP Politburo]]. During his time in Guangdong lasting until 2017, Hu launched anti-corruption campaigns and earned reputation as a low-key leader. Hu became a [[vice premier of China]] in 2018, a post he served until 2023. He left the Politburo in 2022, after the [[20th National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party|20th CCP National Congress]], though he kept his membership to the [[Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party|CCP Central Committee]]. In March 2023, he became a vice chairman of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. Hu is popularly known as "[[Heir apparent]] of [[Tuanpai]]" due to the similarities of his career with that of former [[General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party|CCP general secretary]] [[Hu Jintao]] and [[Li Keqiang]].

==Early life and education==
Hu was born into a family of farmers in [[Wufeng Tujia Autonomous County|Wufeng County]], [[Yichang]], [[Hubei]] province on 1 April 1963. In 1979, he ranked first in the county for the ''[[Gaokao]]'' examination. At age 16, he was the youngest in his class.<ref name=kuhn>{{cite book|last=Kuhn|first=Robert Lawrence|title=How China's Leaders Think|year=2011|publisher=Wiley|isbn=978-0470824450|pages=429}}</ref> In 1983, he joined the [[Chinese Communist Party]] (CCP). He received a bachelor’s degree in Chinese literature from [[Peking University]] in August 1983.<ref name="Brookings Institution">{{cite web |date= |title=Hu Chunhua 胡春华 |url=https://www.brookings.edu/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/20thpartycongress_li_qiang.pdf |access-date=26 September 2024 |publisher=[[Brookings Institution]]}}</ref> At [[Peking University]] he was friends with [[Li Keqiang]], who was also attending Peking University at the time.{{cn|date=July 2024}} Hu later entered the [[Central Party School of the Chinese Communist Party|Central Party School]] in 1996, graduating via part-time studies with a master’s degree in world economics 1999. He also took cadre training programs from the Central Party School from 1996 to 1997 and in 2000.<ref name="Brookings Institution" />

== Political career ==

===Tibet, Hebei, and Youth League===
After graduation, he went to work in Tibet, starting as a cadre in the Organization Department of the [[Tibet Autonomous Regional Committee of the Chinese Communist Party|CCP Tibet Autonomous Regional Committee]] in 1983. He became an official at the ''Tibet Youth Daily'' in 1984, and an official at the [[Tibet Hotel]] in 1985. In 1987, Hu became the deputy secretary of the [[Communist Youth League of China]] (CYCL) Committee in Tibet, later serving as its secretary from 1992 to 1995. He worked as a deputy head of the [[Nyingchi|Linzhi Prefecture]] in 1992, and as deputy party secretary and head of [[Shannan, Tibet|Shannan Prefecture]] in from 1995 to 1997.<ref name="Brookings Institution" />

From 1997 to 2001 Hu served in the Secretariat of the Communist Youth League and as a Vice Chairman of the [[All-China Youth Federation]]. In July 2001, Hu returned to Tibet, becoming the secretary-general of the CCP Tibet Committee. Hu served as [[Chinese Communist Party Deputy Committee Secretary|deputy secretary]] of the CCP Tibet Committee from November 2003 to November 2006 and vice chairman of the Tibet Autonomous Regional Government from November 2003 to November 2005.<ref name="Brookings Institution" /> In Tibet, Hu played an instrumental role in developing the Tibetan economy, curbing the independence movement, and the settlement of more Han Chinese into region.<ref name="sixth" />

Hu returned to Beijing to become the [[First Secretary of the Communist Youth League of China|First Secretary of the Communist Youth League]] from December 2006 to March 2008. At the [[17th National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party|17th Party Congress]] in October 2007, Hu Chunhua became a member of the [[Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party|CCP Central Committee]]. On April 15, 2008, he was appointed the acting [[Governor of Hebei]], China's youngest.<ref>{{in lang|zh}} [http://news.sina.com.cn/c/2008-04-15/132215360161.shtml 胡春华任河北代省长 为中国目前最年轻省长 ''Hu Chunhua appointed as Acting Governor of Hebei, currently youngest governor in China''], [[Sina.com]] April 15, 2008.</ref> On January 12, 2009, he was officially elected Governor.<ref>{{in lang|zh}} [https://web.archive.org/web/20090120184631/http://politics.people.com.cn/GB/8662845.html 河北省十一届人大二次会议选举胡春华为省长], [[People's Daily]] January 12, 2009.</ref><ref>{{in lang|zh}} [https://web.archive.org/web/20110526134411/http://www.caijing.com.cn/2009-01-12/110047189.html 胡春华出任河北省省长], [[Caijing]] January 12, 2009.</ref> In Hebei, Hu had the reputation of working 'non-stop', visiting all of the province's 11 prefecture-level cities within a few months.<ref name="kuhn" /> While serving in Hebei, Hu came into the limelight during the [[2008 Chinese milk scandal]], which had roots in Hebei province. He came out of the incident unscathed, some say as a result of his closeness to CCP general secretary [[Hu Jintao]].<ref name="sixth" /> He also took part in the security preparations of the [[2008 Summer Olympics]] in Beijing, and advocated increasing domestic [[Consumption (economics)|consumption]] in response to the [[2008 financial crisis]].<ref name="kuhn" />

===Inner Mongolia===
In November 2009, he was appointed Regional Party Secretary of [[Inner Mongolia]].<ref name=xh>{{cite news|url=http://news.xinhuanet.com/ziliao/2008-04/15/content_7980472.htm|script-title=zh:胡春华简历|date=2008-04-15|publisher=Xinhua|language=zh|access-date=28 April 2010|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100810055507/http://news.xinhuanet.com/ziliao/2008-04/15/content_7980472.htm|archive-date=10 August 2010}}</ref> He was also elected Chairman of the Inner Mongolia People's Congress in January 2010.<ref name=xh/> Not long after he took charge of the vast northern region, Hu embarked on a plan to rebalance growth in the region. Under Hu's predecessor [[Chu Bo]], Inner Mongolia saw explosive GDP growth that was the result of developing natural resources. The region's GDP growth ranked highest amongst province-level entities in the country for eight consecutive years. However, the growth opened a large [[wealth gap]], with endemic profiteering from local officials, and a divide between the resource-rich western part of the region ([[Hohhot]], [[Baotou]], and [[Ordos (city)|Ordos]]) and the stagnant industrial-based eastern part ([[Chifeng]], [[Tongliao]], [[Hulunbuir]]).

In response, Hu remarked that Inner Mongolia will no longer aspire to be ranked first in GDP growth, but rather focus on sustaining the "quality" and "efficiency" of growth.<ref name=hu>{{cite news|title=胡春华：内蒙不再刻意追求GDP增速全国第一 (Hu Chunhua: Inner Mongolia will no longer pursue GDP growth rankings)|url=http://economics.dwnews.com/news/2011-08-07/57986945.html|access-date=29 April 2012|newspaper=Duowei|date=7 August 2011|archive-date=4 March 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304092145/http://economics.dwnews.com/news/2011-08-07/57986945.html|url-status=dead}}</ref> Hu believed that dogmatically pursuing a mere increase in economic output did not benefit everyone in the region, particularly farmers and nomadic herders, pointing out that the large mining projects had brought significant wealth which did not trickle down to the grassroots. He stressed that one of the priorities of his administration would be assuring equitable policies in the relocation, employment and social welfare of nomadic peoples.<ref name=hu/> Hu also sought to reform tax policy to give more bargaining power to local government and local interests in assessing potential mining projects by large state-owned natural resource companies. These companies were known for running roughshod over local officials that were desperate to attract investment to boost their own GDP numbers.<ref name=hu/> In urban development, Hu stressed the importance of subsidized housing.<ref name=hu/>

Grievances over the intrusion of mining companies, mixed with ethnic tensions between Mongolian and Han Chinese people in the region, had caused friction for years between the government and the rural populations. It came to a boil in May 2011, when a Mongolian herder's death led to [[2011 Inner Mongolia unrest|ethnic Mongolian protests]] in [[Xilinhot]] and unrest in other parts of the region. It was the first major protests in Inner Mongolia in more than twenty years. Hu instituted a two-pronged policy of appeasement and force, addressing the grievances of the protesting crowds by making a visit to Xilinhot, meeting with students and teachers, and promising compensation for local herders and more strict regulations over business conduct. Meanwhile, he increased security presence across Inner Mongolia, including in the capital, [[Hohhot]], to contain the unrest.<ref name=nyt>{{cite news|last=Jacobs|first=Andrew|title=Anger Over Protesters' Deaths Leads to Intensified Demonstrations by Mongolians|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2011/05/31/world/asia/31mongolia.html|newspaper=New York Times|access-date=2011-06-09|date=May 30, 2011}}</ref>

According to [[Reuters]] in August 2012, Hu Jintao sought to promote Hu Chunhua to be a member of the [[Politburo Standing Committee of the Chinese Communist Party|Politburo Standing Committee]] or the [[Party Secretary of Shanghai]] after the [[18th National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party|18th Party National Congress]].<ref>{{Cite news |last=Lim |first=Benjamin Kang |last2=Blanchard |first2=Ben |date=8 August 2012 |title=Exclusive: China's president eyes ally for promotion to top body: sources |url=https://www.reuters.com/article/world/exclusive-china-s-president-eyes-ally-for-promotion-to-top-body-sources-idUSBRE8770JU/ |access-date=5 March 2025 |work=[[Reuters]]}}</ref> In November 2012, after the Party Congress, Hu was appointed to the [[18th Politburo of the Chinese Communist Party]], a ruling council of China's top leaders.<ref>{{Cite web |title=China Vitae : Biography of Hu Chunhua |url=https://www.chinavitae.com/biography/Hu_Chunhua%7C3975 |access-date=2021-10-27 |website=www.chinavitae.com}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |last=Blanchard |first=Ben |date=2012-10-12 |title='Little Hu' may play a big role in China's political future |url=http://www.taipeitimes.com/News/editorials/archives/2012/10/12/2003544969 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130125043719/http://www.taipeitimes.com/News/editorials/archives/2012/10/12/2003544969 |archive-date=2013-01-25 |publisher=[[Taipei Times]]}}</ref> He, along with [[Sun Zhengcai]], were the youngest members of the 18th politburo, raising speculation that they were being groomed to become China's next leaders in 2022.<ref>{{cite news|title=New Politburo Lineup Signals Rising Stars Who May Replace Xi

It is widely regarded to be one of China's most important regional offices.

In Guangdong, Hu earned a reputation for being low-key, action-oriented leader who is not fond of bureaucracy or formalities. Almost immediately after his assuming the reins in Guangdong, Hu's government began a sweeping crackdown on so-called ''[[naked official|luoguan]]'', i.e., officials who work in China but whose spouses and children live abroad. Since the beginning of Hu's term, over 800 ''luoguan'' have been disciplined, demoted, or otherwise removed from office. Hu's government also cracked down on drug trafficking and the sex industry in the [[Dongguan]] area, dispatching police to conduct massive raids of the city's prostitution venues, and removing the city's vice mayor and police chief from office.<ref name=zuo>{{cite news|last1=Zuo|first1=Mandy|title=Dongguan police chiefs suspended in prostitution crackdown following CCTV report|url=http://www.scmp.com/news/china/article/1425144/dongguan-police-chiefs-suspended-prostitution-crackdown-following-cctv?page=all|newspaper=South China Morning Post|date=February 11, 2014}}</ref>

Hu's government also began experimenting with the public release of information on the assets of local officials, and have moved to codify anti-corruption measures into law with the provincial legislature.<ref name=bei>{{cite news|last1=Ji|first1=Beiqun|title=胡春华剑挑"南粤"悄声向前筑新局|url=http://china.dwnews.com/news/2014-11-20/59619644.html|publisher=Duowei|date=November 21, 2014|access-date=2014-11-21|archive-date=2014-11-23|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141123205855/http://china.dwnews.com/news/2014-11-20/59619644.html|url-status=dead}}</ref> In October 2014, Hu's government began a series of public consultations on new anti-corruption regulations.  Taking best practices from the [[Independent Commission Against Corruption (Hong Kong)|Independent Commission Against Corruption]] in Hong Kong, Hu's government experimented with – in select local areas – merging the traditionally separate departments of Discipline Inspection, Supervision, Anti-Corruption, and Audit into a single agency in charge of combating graft.<ref name=zuo/> During's Hu's term, the [[Chinese Communist Party Committee Secretary|Party Committee Secretary]] of the provincial capital Guangzhou, [[Wan Qingliang]], was investigated for corruption and removed from office.

===Central government===

In March 2018, he was elected by the [[National People's Congress]] to serve as a [[Vice Premier of China|vice premier of China]] in Premier [[Li Keqiang]]'s [[Li Keqiang Government|Cabinet]]. As vice premier, Hu played an important role in the [[Targeted Poverty Alleviation|targeted poverty alleviation]] campaign, agricultural modernization, and the [[Belt and Road Initiative]].<ref name="Brookings Institution" />

After the [[20th National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party|20th CCP National Congress]] in 2022, Hu left the Politburo, though he remained a Central Committee member.<ref name=":0" /> In March 2023, he left the office as vice premier and was instead elected as [[Vice Chairperson of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference|vice chairman]] of the [[Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference]] (CPPCC).<ref>{{Cite web |title=23 vice-chairpersons elected for 14th CPPCC National Committee |url=http://en.cppcc.gov.cn/2023-03/10/c_868106.htm |access-date=2023-03-11 |website=en.cppcc.gov.cn}}</ref> He was named as one of two deputy party secretaries of the CPPCC in the same month.<ref>{{cite news |title=全国政协党组理论学习中心组举行2023年第一次集体学习 王沪宁主持并讲话 |url=http://www.cppcc.gov.cn/zxww/2023/03/28/ARTI1679967571264167.shtml |work=人民政协报 |date=2023-03-28}}</ref>

==Public image==
Hu has maintained a relatively low public profile during his rise to positions of power. Hu is known for his low-key style in public, and does not discuss his private life. During the [[2012 National People's Congress]], Hu Chunhua only answered four out of twenty questions posed to him by reporters, casting many sensitive questions to his subordinates. When asked personal questions, he said that he was only interested in matters relating to Inner Mongolia. He refused to comment on his personal ambitions, or whether or not he had a [[Microblogging in China|Weibo]] account.<ref name=willy/> Following the dismissal of [[Bo Xilai]] in April 2012, Hu was heavily promoted due to his loyalty to central party authorities under Hu Jintao's [[Hu–Wen Administration|leadership]].<ref name=willy/> He toed the party line and is seen as a close confidant and loyalist of [[Hu Jintao]].<ref name=willy>{{cite news|last=Lam|first=Willy|title=Hu Jintao's Sixth Generation Protégés Play Safe to Ensure Promotion|url=http://www.jamestown.org/single/?no_cache=1&tx_ttnews%5Btt_news%5D=39303&tx_ttnews%5BbackPid%5D=589|access-date=28 April 2012|newspaper=China Brief via [[The Jamestown Foundation]]|date=26 April 2012}}</ref>

After [[Xi Jinping]] assumed [[General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party]] in 2012, Hu continued to play a prominent role politically - his record in Guangdong impressed the central authorities and was praised by Xi personally. There was wide speculation that Hu would advance directly to the [[Politburo Standing Committee of the Chinese Communist Party|CCP Politburo Standing Committee]] in 2017 and be groomed as a putative successor to the top leadership, but this ultimately did not occur. However, Hu was selected to become Vice-Premier in 2018, continuing to be the youngest leader among the senior-most ranks of the party.<ref name=sixth>{{cite news|last=Lam|first=Willy|title=Hu Jintao Picks Core Sixth-Generation Leaders|url=http://www.jamestown.org/single/?no_cache=1&tx_ttnews%5Btt_news%5D=34988|access-date=29 April 2012|newspaper=China Brief via Jamestown Foundation|date=15 May 2009}}</ref><ref name=NYT112612>{{cite news|title=China's Leadership Change Puts Pair Ahead of Their Peers for 2017|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2012/11/27/world/asia/new-generation-of-communist-party-leaders-prepare-for-next-round.html|access-date=November 27, 2012|newspaper=The New York Times|date=November 26, 2012|author=Edward Wong}}</ref> It was again speculated that Hu might join the Standing Committee in 2022,<ref>{{cite news |title=New leaders will soon inhabit China's top decision-making bodies |url=https://www.economist.com/china/2022/09/15/new-leaders-will-soon-inhabit-chinas-top-decision-making-bodies |access-date=6 November 2022 |newspaper=The Economist |date=15 September 2022}}</ref> but instead he was demoted from the Politburo.<ref name=":0">{{cite news |last1=Chen |first1=Stella |title=China's Hu Chunhua loses Politburo seat, raising doubts about political future |url=https://www.scmp.com/news/china/politics/article/3197001/chinas-hu-chunhua-loses-politburo-seat-raising-doubts-about-political-future |access-date=6 November 2022 |work=South China Morning Post |date=24 October 2022 |language=en}}</ref>

His political beliefs about Tibet are fairly opaque. He is able to hold simple conversations in [[Standard Tibetan|Tibetan]] as he had worked there as a regional official.<ref name=sixth/>

== Personal life ==
Hu married his wife in Tibet. They have one daughter.<ref name="Brookings Institution" />
