Because he was the one who founded the Chinese Communist Party. He finally won victory against the Nationalists after more than 20 years of civil war. Prior to that he led his communists in battle against the Japanese invaders in WW 2.
The Japanese invasion of China in the late 1930s significantly impacted the Chinese Civil War by temporarily uniting the Nationalists (Kuomintang) and the Communists against a common enemy. This forced collaboration weakened the Nationalists' control and resources, as they shifted focus to resist Japanese aggression. The conflict also allowed the Communists to gain popular support and expand their influence, ultimately setting the stage for their victory in the civil war after World War II. The invasion thus altered the dynamics of power and conflict within China during this tumultuous period.
China was involved since 1937 as a result of the Japanese incursion into Manchuria. China was also involved in a Civil war at the time and since the Nationalists and the Communists rarely cooperated, Japanese victory was magnified.
The main cause of the Chinese Civil War, which began in 1927, was the ideological conflict between the Nationalist Party (Kuomintang) and the Communist Party of China. The Nationalists, led by Chiang Kai-shek, sought to establish a centralized government and promote nationalism, while the Communists aimed for a proletarian revolution and the establishment of a socialist state. Tensions escalated as both parties vied for control over China, ultimately leading to a brutal power struggle that was exacerbated by foreign intervention and socio-economic issues. The conflict would continue intermittently until the Communist victory in 1949.
US/UN victory. Communists were stopped at the 38th parallel and the Republic of South Korea (ROK) was preserved.

The communists won by having more determination. Their effect on the US domestic front simply meant an added communist power to contain, during the cold war.
Mao Zedong and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) achieved victory after World War II through a combination of military strategy, popular support, and effective propaganda. The CCP capitalized on widespread discontent with the Nationalist government, which was seen as corrupt and ineffective, especially during the Japanese invasion and subsequent civil war. Mao's emphasis on peasant support and guerrilla warfare tactics allowed the Communists to gain ground, culminating in the establishment of the People's Republic of China in 1949. This victory was also facilitated by the weakening of the Nationalists in the aftermath of the war and their inability to secure effective foreign support.

Jiang Jieshi (Chiang Kai-shek) lost popular support due to his government's corruption, inefficiency, and inability to effectively address the needs of the Chinese populace, particularly during the Japanese invasion in the 1930s. In contrast, the Communists, led by Mao Zedong, gained support by promoting land reforms, appealing to the peasantry, and presenting themselves as a viable alternative to Jiang's Nationalist government. Their effective guerrilla tactics and promises of social equality resonated with many who were disillusioned by the Nationalists' failures. This shift in allegiance was pivotal in the eventual victory of the Communist Party in the Chinese Civil War.
It gave the communists their first battlefield victory.
