"Everyone knows in its cities, China is building up - but it's also building out," says Jing Ulrich, managing director and head of research at JP Morgan in Hong Kong. In Beijing, a high-speed rail link will bring cities like Tianjin, 70 miles (113 km) away, into commuting distance by this summer. In places such as Chongqing to the west and Dalian in the north, says Ulrich, the same pattern of development is taking shape...

"Everyone seems to think that Yang Jiechi is China's Condi Rice," says Huang, "but he's actually quite low on the totem pole compared with a senior general, to whom he would have to bow and be deferential."

The result of the current factional infighting will have a huge impact on how the country is run for the next five to ten years or more, says Huang Jing, a China scholar with the Brookings Institute in Washington. Those leaders aligned with Hu broadly back his (so far unsuccessful) attempts to slow the country's obsessive pursuit of growth at all costs, engineer a soft landing for the overheated economy and ensure that the hundreds of millions of Chinese left behind...
