The Chinese deep state saw a break in 1949 after the communist victory in the civil war, when the old deep state was forced to move lock, stock and barrel to Taiwan. The new Communist state soon saw a new deep state emerge, centered around the state run enterprises, senior party cadre and their families, and the military.
The two strands of deep state activities started to fuse together again from the 1970s onward, and also with the supranational deep state.
Of huge significance for deep state activities is the 100 million+ overseas Chinese community, especially in South-East Asia, but also further afield, including many billionaires, and the criminal syndicates known as Triads.

The Chinese deep state saw a huge change after the communists under Mao Zedong won the civil war in 1949.

While actual Chinese deep state activities often go unnoticed, during the Cold War a black legend was nurtured by the CIA against the Chinese Communist Party government.
The standard tactic is number inflation, where supposedly scientific analysis by "independent experts" abroad revealed enormous number of casualties, including a 1959-61 famine which according to these calculations killed 60 million people. The Tiananmen Square massacre is another of event where the full story is not told.
In 1959 the Chinese government integrated Tibet into China and has suppressed all independence activists since then. The province of Xinjiang has seen significant unrest from independence activists. Both situations have been instrumentalized by the CIA over the decades.
