Hu Deping

Hu Deping is a biology topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand Hu Deping rather than just read about it. In short: Hu Deping (Chinese: 胡德平; pinyin: Hú Dépíng; born November 1942) is a Chinese politician and former vice chairman of All-China General Chamber of Industry & Commerce, Secretary of National Association of Industry and Commerce (under the United Front Work Department of the Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party), former chairman of China-Africa Business Council. He is the eldest son of late Chinese Communist…

Key takeaways

Hu Deping belongs to biology; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Hu Deping to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of Hu Deping from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

Hu Deping (Chinese: 胡德平; pinyin: Hú Dépíng; born November 1942) is a Chinese politician and former vice chairman of All-China General Chamber of Industry & Commerce, Secretary of National Association of Industry and Commerce (under the United Front Work Department of the Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party), former chairman of China-Africa Business Council. He is the eldest son of late Chinese Communist Party General Secretary Hu Yaobang. Hu is a well-regarded economist in mainland China. In the 1970s, Hu Deping was largely responsible for restoring archaeology as an academic discipline after its destruction in the Cultural Revolution. He is an acknowledged expert on the classic 18th century novel Dream of the Red Chamber by Cao Xueqin. After departing from politics, Hu served as the chair of the National Cao Xueqin Foundation. Served as the chairman of the country's leading environmental NGO, the China Biodiversity Conservation and Green Development Foundation since 2008, Hu is famous for his green development theory called "Green Locomotive". He believes that China's rapid growth in recent years was based on high energy consumption, excessive pollution, high emission and low efficiency. He urges the country to focus on sustainable development, what is called "Building a Green Locomotive for China", to enable the country to lead the global economy. Hu Deping is also known as the founding chairman of the China Biodiversity Conservation and Green Development Foundation.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Hu Deping

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Hu Deping claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In biology, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Hu Deping before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Hu Deping ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Hu Deping

In research: Hu Deping appears in biology research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Hu Deping in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Hu Deping is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1942 births, 20th-century Chinese economists, Asian economist stubs, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Hu Deping outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
