Impact if Deng Xiaoping dies during the Cultural Revolution?

Let's say Deng Xiaoping receives the same type of treatment that Liu Shaoqi did, and dies in 1969 during the Cultural Revolution as well. Assuming that Lin Biao, Zhou Enlai, and Mao Zedong all die roughly the same as OTL under roughly the same circumstances, and that the Gang of Four still gets purged because they're just that unpopular, how would China look afterwards? I can't imagine Hua Guofeng being able to stay in control of the country, so I could see him being replaced somehow. The question is, who would take control of the People's Republic afterwards in Deng's absence?
 
If Deng dies in 1969 then the Gang of Four probably ends up in power, not Hua. Look at North Korea and Cambodia for what that would look like.

this would be "good" for Taiwan.

Would the ROC still be kicked out of the UN, though????

That would be about it, I guess......

First, I was looking to discuss the PRC without the Gang of Four either, and second, I don't think Deng's death would necessarily lead to the Gang of Four taking over. They may have been powerful (or at least, Jiang Qing and Zhang Cunzhao, since the other two are nobodies), but it would be an exaggeration to say they were on the brink of taking over.
 
the rise of Gang of Four could work, if Mao is killed by general Lin Biao during the cultural Revolution.
and bring a division in Power in China between Military and Communist Party with Red Guard (last unter control of Gang of Four)

back to Deng Xiaoping, he almost dies in 1968 during raid of Red Guard on his home
his death would have disaster result on World economy
China stay on Communist plan economic and will have same fate as Soviet union in 1980s
with out the China economic boom in 1980 and 1990s
the World economic will run in long therm into recession in 1980 and maybe after collapse of Japanese Bubble economic 1990s into a world depression!
