In ancient China, after an old emperor died, new emperor would bring his most trusted courtier(s) (MTC). The communist party retained this tradition. For example:

Jiang Zemin (江泽民) and his MTC Zeng Qinghong (曾庆红)

Hu Jintao (胡锦涛) and his MTC Ling Jihua (令计划 *)

Xi Jinping (习近平) and his MTC Li Zhanshu (栗战书)

Ling (*) is the MTC who impressed us most. One night, the Ferrari luxury sports car Ling's son drove lost control and crashed into a bridge pier, he died on the spot.

It was incredible that the next morning, Ling calmly presided over an important meeting, and calmly delivered an important speech. Is he a robot without emotions?
