Live Events Known for the unusual frequency and intensity of his overseas travel, good command of English, confident, and ability to engage spontaneously without pre-prepared talking points, Liu was different from Chinese diplomats in the past, as per the Reuters report. One diplomat, who met him in late 2023, said that "He knows how to shape Chinese narratives in a way that's engaging and appealing to foreigners," as quoted in the report.

He began his foreign ministry career in China as a translator and subsequently worked in its mission in the UK, and as ambassador to Indonesia and the Philippines, as per the Reuters report. Unlike other Chinese diplomat, he served two successive postings in China's anti-corruption bureaucracy between 2015 and 2018, when he helped track down corrupt officials who fled overseas, as reported by Reuters.

However, he was not promoted to the role at a recent annual government reshuffle, as per the report. Wen-Ti Sung, a fellow at the Atlantic Council's Global China Hub, said that, "If true, Liu Jianchao's downfall will lead to further power vacuum at the top of China's foreign affairs portfolio," adding, "It removes a frontrunner to succeed Wang Yi and deprives China of a potential next steward for China's foreign policy," as quoted by Reuters.
