This de facto top decision-making authority of China. Li, along with General Secretary Xi Jinping, is a key part of the “fifth Generation of Chinese leadership”. Forbes named Li the 12th most powerful person in the world in its 2015 and 2016 lists of the most powerful people.

Li graduated from Hefei No.8 High School in 1974 during the Cultural Revolution. He was sent to rural labor in Fengyang County in Anhui. He eventually joined the Communist Party of China, becoming the head of the local production group. During this period, he was awarded the Outstanding Individual in Study of Mao Zedong Thought. He refused to be groomed by his father for the local party leadership. Instead, he entered the School of Law at Peking university. There he earned his LLB and was elected president of the student council. Li Yining, a prominent economist, was his doctoral advisor. He received a Doctor of Philosophy in economics (PhD), in 1995. His doctoral dissertation received the Sun Yefang Prize in China, China’s highest economic prize.

Li became the youngest Chinese provincial governor in June 1998 when he was appointed governor of Henan at the age of 43. According to provincial officials working with him at the time, Li refused to participate in any banquets or large fancy events not related to government activities. During his time as governor, a public sense of his “bad luck” grew due to the occurrence of three major fires in the province.

Li’s first major appearance internationally was at the 2010 World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. The event was seen as a litmus test for Li. At the forum, Li succinctly presented China’s long-term vision for development in front of world business and political leaders. In particular, Li briefed the WEF on China’s commitment to sustainable development, green energy, decreasing the income gap and modernizing key strategic industries. While reiterating Beijing’s commitment to peaceful development and its focus in increasing domestic demand in the face of external pressures during the global financial crisis, Li also warned against protectionism, saying “opening up can be both bilateral and multilateral… in this sense, one plus one is more often than not bigger than two.” He also touched upon the importance of international development, and international financial reform. He called for a global governance structure that was “more reflective of the changes in the global political and economic landscape.”

In August 2011, Li went on an official visit to Hong Kong, including a trip to the University of Hong Kong. The political sensitivities and heightened security surrounding the event resulted in the Hong Kong 818 incident, an event that caused controversy in the territory.

During his first term in the PSC between 2007 and 2012, Li took on the most important portfolios in the Chinese government, including economic development, government budgets, land and resources, the environment, and health, ostensibly to prepare him for his upcoming premiership. He also became the head of central commissions overseeing the Three Gorges Dam and the South-North Water Transfer Project, as well as the leader of steering committees in charge of health care reform, food safety, and AIDS-related work. In addition, Li was the principal lieutenant to Premier Wen Jiabao in the broad portfolios of climate change, energy, information technology, northeastern China revitalization, and developing the Chinese far west.

With his Youth League experience and his association with then paramount leader Hu Jintao, Li was seen from early on in Hu’s term as a contender to succeed Hu when his term as party leader ends in 2012. Li gained membership to the Politburo Standing Committee at 17th Party Congress held in October 2007. He was succeeded in his provincial party chief post by Governor Zhang Wenyue. While Li’s political future seemed promising, he was outranked on the Standing Committee by Xi Jinping, who had just left his role as party chief of Shanghai to join the central leadership ranks in Beijing. This rank order ostensibly signaled that it would be Xi, not Li, who would eventually succeed Hu as party General Secretary and President. At the 2008 National People’s Congress, Li was elected Vice-Premier, first in rank, reinforcing the speculation that Li would become Premier and was being groomed to succeed then-Premier Wen Jiabao.

At the 18th Party Congress held in the fall of 2012, Li was elevated to the number two spot on the Politburo Standing Committee (PSC) and thereby became one of the top leaders of China. As he was expected to become Premier, this was a shift from previous convention on the PSC set in 1997 whereby the Premier ranked third, after the Chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress, who ranked second. This change showed that the party intended to project Li as the number two figure in the Chinese political hierarchy, behind only party General Secretary Xi Jinping. Also in that same year, he had personally met with the openly gay Ma Baoli (a policeman turned businessman) to discuss the threat posed by HIV. In the same conversation, they discussed LGBT issues on preventing discrimination which has been interpreted as a sign that the People’s Republic is slowly coming around to the idea as major Chinese businesses have already begun tapping into the purchasing power of the LGBT community.
