Shang Jingcai (Chinese: 商景才; November 1921 – April 16, 2015) was a Chinese politician who served as chairman of the Zhejiang Provincial Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference from 1988 to 1993. A veteran member of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), he held a number of senior leadership positions in Zhejiang Province, including vice chairman of the Zhejiang Provincial People's Congress and head of the Publicity Department of the CCP Zhejiang Provincial Committee.[1]
Biography
Shang was born in Teng County (now Tengzhou), Shandong, in November 1921. As a student, he participated in anti-Japanese patriotic activities and joined the revolutionary movement in May 1938. He became a member of the Chinese Communist Party in September 1938.[2]
During the Second Sino-Japanese War, Shang served as a publicity manager with the Teng County Anti-Japanese Volunteer Corps before holding secretarial and administrative posts in the CCP organizations of the Su–Lu–Yu–Wan Border Region and the Luzhong Area Committee.[3] In 1943, he was appointed secretary-general of the Taishan Prefectural Committee while concurrently serving as a member of the Jinan Working Committee and head of its publicity department. During the later years of the war and the Chinese Civil War, he held a succession of organizational, publicity, and political posts in the Luzhong and Luzhongnan base areas.[4]
Following the establishment of the People's Republic of China in 1949, Shang moved to Zhejiang Province, where he served as deputy secretary-general of the Hangzhou Military Control Commission, secretary-general and publicity chief of the Shaoxing Prefectural Committee, and later director of the Publicity Division of the Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee.[5] Beginning in 1953, he successively served as vice director of the Department of Culture and Education of the Zhejiang Provincial People's Government, deputy head of the provincial publicity department, first secretary of the Shaoxing County Party Committee, deputy head of the provincial publicity department, and deputy secretary of the Shaoxing Prefectural Committee.[6]
During the Cultural Revolution, Shang was persecuted and removed from his positions. After his political rehabilitation, he returned to public office in 1972 as deputy head of the Political Work Group of the Zhejiang Revolutionary Committee.[7] He subsequently served as head of the Publicity Department of the Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee, head of the provincial Department of Education and Health, and a member of the Standing Committee of the Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee.[8]
In May 1983, Shang was elected vice chairman of the Zhejiang Provincial People's Congress Standing Committee and served concurrently as adviser to the provincial publicity department.[9] In January 1988, he was elected chairman and Party Group secretary of the Zhejiang Provincial Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, remaining in office until January 1993. From June 1979 to September 1992, he also served concurrently as president of Zhejiang Radio and Television University.[10] Shang retired from public office in December 1993. He died in Hangzhou on April 16, 2015, at the age of 93.[11]
