Biography
[edit]Zheng was born in Ning County, Gansu, in October 1961. From September 1979 to September 1980, he was a coal-mine worker. In September 1980, he was accepted to Gansu Education College (now Lanzhou University of Arts and Science), where he majored in Chinese.
After university in 1982, he worked in government. He joined the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in June 1985.
