chairman mao zedong, the founder of the people's republic of china, was the first to enshrine his roleer. his successor, den xiaoping, architect of the reforms that propelled china's economy to the world's second-biggest, did the same. xi wants to show he is an equally important leader, transforming china into a global power. he wants to make his power felt all across chinese society as well. he has boosted the military, and launched a crackdown that has muzzled tech tycoons like alibaba jack ma. in recent weeks, he has been stepping up pressure on taiwan, which china considers its own island. at the party meeting laying the groundwork for next year's congress, xi is expected to secure hisosition for another five years. but one challenge is yet overcome economic headwinds. growth is slowing among an energy crunch and supply chain disruptions, and there are still concerns about china's real estate market. brent: catholic bishops in france have agreed to compensate child sex abuse victims, after a report last month revealed extensive abuse covering decades. they are meeting in lourde bis

in 1945 they were trams for mao and deng respectively. ? triumphs.ertainly seems like xi jinping is trying to make china great again, we can borrow a phrase from another political leader. but how popular a leader. but how popular a leader is he? can we really say, given the tight control of media in china?— media in china? that is an interesting _ media in china? that is an interesting question. - media in china? that is an interesting question. i - media in china? that is an l interesting question. i think overall, if you look at some of the achievements that will surely be highlighted in the party under his rule, the elimination and the eradication of poverty, i think is live support for that and i think there's a lot of pride in china for having watched its unremarkable growth from a royal economy to a global superpower in a matter of decades in the party rightfully takes credit for that. at the same time, we are seeing in the state of regulatory policy announcements of the last few months that china is shaping the society and economy that it want

and 76 after the death of mao zedong, there was a rise to what they became as paramount leader.he process of reform in the economy was a fraction of today. xi jinping has one of the most powerful militaries in the world, the second-biggest economy and now he has essentially ultimate power. he has spent the last two terms, and years, next year will be the end of his second term, on a vast anticorruption campaign which happened to rid many of his rivals including -- and others. he is unrivaled even on the standing committee which is supposed to be a body of nine individuals with equal power but ranked with the president of the top. but nobody on the committee right now has the experience, the age to be a successor and usually by this time in a president's second term, nine years and, we would have known who the heir apparent is. there is no indication who it is going to be. that is the clearest signal that he will most likely have -- go for a third term at the party congress next year. paul: that clear air for his leadership, but will this mean for policy going forward? stephen: i

the last time china delivered one of these doctrines was mao zedong. china has changed so much.the second largest economy with a fifth of the world's population, and one of the biggest militaries. there is a lot more at stake this time around as we look at the continued leadership of xi. tom: you have to wonder if that confidence president she takes out of this will give him more leverage when he talks to president biden. that meeting is expected next week. there are some views there is stability entering the relationship. we had that come together on cop 26 to work together on climate. we will see if anything material comes out of that meeting next week. dani: despite the crackdown on tech, a banner day for alibaba. that is it for us. we have "surveillance: early edition" next. this is bloomberg. ♪ >> i believe rich people should pay more in taxes. >> inflation is high. this is a transitory period. >> it will take a while to dig out of the hole we are in, and mostly about getting labor into jobs. announcer: this is "bloomberg surveillance: early edition." dani: good morning a w

death of mao zedong.y road for his first year in office. he does have the wind in his sales from the infrastructure built, but it was hard -- bill, but it has been hard-fought. he's been battered even in his own party. it depends on what perspective you are coming from who has the position of strength. it seems as though they know each other, they will try to develop a relationship. i don't think it will be the kind of friendly relationship like when a former chinese president wore a cowboy hat. a summit with bill clinton. reagan had good relationships with the chinese leadership. it is a different game now. china is a bigger, bigger player on the global stage, a figure economy and bigger military. haslinda: one could hope better relations between the two is good for the rest of the world. stephen engle, our chief international correspondent for north asia, and our columnist, david. let's bring in new york strategist at td securities. how closely are you watching the relationship, talks between the two si

pushing xi jinping to a level that was only seen by mao.sident managed to get to the point where he will be signing hours before the summit, the coveted infrastructure bill. both sides have something to be feeling happy and content about. certainly, it does give me the indication to biden's approach to managing relations with china which was predicated on the idea of caramelization -- compartmentalization. maintaining the strategic competition on matters that have to do with the security -- with security. >> the fact that lifting tariffs on china is not on the table, is that going to hinder any progress on that front? >> but is a great question and one that certainly shows that when it comes to u.s. trade policy, there is a lot more continuity despite what the biden administration would want to advertise between the top administration -- the trump administration. there have been various high officials in the united states saying that this approach and the commitment to phase one of the agreement that was signed last year, that it is somethi

the strongest signal yet that he will seek an unprecedented third turn -- unprecedented in the post-mao potentially more. that has global ramifications on such a large economy and singular in purpose, singular in policy, singular at the top. dani: let's get into that a little bit. what does it mean for the chinese economy exactly, reinforcing these common prosperity policy goals? stephen: yeah. they would be interesting to see where the checks and balances of power will be within the halls of power in beijing. he's been very clear on what xi 's thought is. it's been emphasized by a number of regulatory crackdowns. perhaps this is linked to this power grab. the mandate that he received this year was a highly politically charged time in beijing. along with regulatory clampdown's on everything from big tech to insurance to gaming to video gaming. we've been reporting on it. whether that will be relaxed afterwards because the political tension is not so high, we are not so sure. he's consolidated his power. he may push forward even further on common prosperity and the emphasis on quality gr

last week china had an apartment commonest party meeting where president xi was put on par with mao zedong great leaders of china. domestically he is strong. last week at aipac in his video chat with other leaders he was hearing resistance to china's rhetoric. i think he is pulling back. we are not hearing so much of that warrior component, you have to meet us where we are on these issues. i'm not sure the u.s. side has more leverage, but i think the biden administration has been quite successful, not in talking about change in china, and talking about strengthening the united states and building partnerships. we know secretary ray mondo and the ambassador are both in asia this week around china and beating together in japan and going their separate ways to south korea and india. that is good for the u.s. mission. i think it brings us, and secretary blinken says this often come into a position of strength. i think the chinese are taking notice of that. guy: final quick question from eight. world relies on taiwan to produce semiconductors. should the world rely on taiwan to produce semicond
