China has a large population of overseas Chinese. There were over 30 million overseas Chinese throughout the world by the end of 20th century. The overseas Chinese have an important role in Chinese social, economic development, and the overseas Chinese affairs policy becomes more and more important in the government. In the process of leading China's development, especially after the Cultural Revolution, the chief designer of the Chinese reform and opening-up policies, Mr. Deng Xiaoping, has paid special attention to the overseas Chinese affairs policy with his sharp and strategic thinking. His thought has formed special overseas Chinese affairs theory and become a part of the system of Deng Xiaoping Theory.Deng Xiaoping's overseas Chinese affairs theory has been formed from many factors;such as his thinking on the special social status of overseas Chinese, the contemporary background of China's reforms and opening-up, the existing overseas Chinese policies from the first generation the Chinese leaders, and his personal special experience of studying overseas, participating in the Chinese revolution and construction. Deng Xiaoping's overseas Chinese affairs theory is rigorous, systematic and scientific system. It is an important part of Deng Xiaoping Theory. In his theory some well-known sayings such as "we should protect overseas Chinese legal rights" "overseas relationship is a good thing", "we need to take good advantage of the overseas resources". Deng Xiaoping's practical overseas Chinese policies have successfully attracted large amount of revenues from the overseas Chinese as well as the intellectuals and wisdom from overseas Chinese. It has greatly promoted the unity of China, and strengthens the relationship between China and the nations where the oversea Chinese reside. It brings along a new look in the overseas Chinese affairs policies. Deng Xiaoping's overseas Chinese theory has inherited yet extended the overseas Chinese affairs theories of Mao Zedong and Zhou Enlai. It has laid a solid theoretical and political foundations of the overseas Chinese affairs in the post-Deng era in China.
