Books by former premier Zhu Rongji are easily bestsellers, and they’re also usually publishing sensations. Following the success of Zhu Rongji Meets the Press and Zhu Rongji on the Record (both available in English), 2013’s new release focuses on Zhu’s speeches during his post in Shanghai from 1987 to 1991, when the city was at a critical stage of economic reform. Most of the speeches, photos and manuscripts are published for the first time. The first printing is said to be 1.1 million copies. The book is full of Zhu’s wit and intelligence.
