This phrase is named after the general secretary of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and Chinese president Hu Jintao and premier Wen Jiabao, who are considered the 4th generation Chinese leaders and are viewed as, at least ostensibly, more reform-oriented and more open-minded and have been praised by political observers.
