Deng Xiaoping was a Chinese leader and reformist who played a crucial role in transforming China's economy. As the paramount leader of China from the late 1970s until his retirement in the early 1990s, Deng implemented significant economic reforms that shifted China from a centrally planned economy to a more market-oriented one. His policies helped spur rapid economic growth and development, shaping modern China's trajectory.
