My Take

Zhao Yide interests me as a study in how power is accumulated within China's vast political machine. From a small-city background in Wenling, he climbed through mayor of Wenzhou, party secretary of Hangzhou and Quzhou, deputy secretary of Hebei, and now leads Shaanxi as its Communist Party secretary. To us watching from Japan it can feel like a distant world, yet rising this far in a nation of over a billion people implies a scale of competition almost impossible to imagine. His private life stays hidden, but the trajectory itself, governing region after region on the way upward, is a story worth knowing.

Overview

Zhao Yide (Chinese: 赵一德; born February 19, 1965) is a Chinese politician and the current Chinese Communist Party Committee Secretary of Shaanxi, and was previously the Governor of Shaanxi. Earlier in his career, he served as the Deputy Party Secretary of Hebei, Party Secretary of Hangzhou, Quzhou and Mayor of Wenzhou.
