We all know that the decision-making process of resisting U.S. aggressing and aiding Korea is extremely difficult. Judging from the objective conditions, this battle cannot be fought. But from a subjective point of view, I have to fight. Objective conditions are about economy, subjectively politics, and of course politics is ultimately for the economy.
Because of this, Chairman Mao finally decided to "fight". Not fighting is not enough to defend the new People's Republic, and not fighting is not enough to show the ambition and backbone of the Chinese people.
But Chairman Mao knew the huge risks brought by this decision. He said: If you defeat, we may go up the mountain to fight guerrillas.
Like resisting U.S. aggression and aiding Korea, reform and opening up is also a dangerous move.
Can it be possible if you don’t reform and opening up? It should be fine, just continue in the same state as before, and you won’t starve to death anyway. But the question is, the gap between us and foreign countries will become increasingly larger. So why do we reflect the superiority of socialist system ? If this continues, how can socialism defeat capitalism ?
If you want to change all this, you must reform internally and open up to the outside world. Reforming internally may be easier, after all, it is your own business. But opening up to the outside world is also opening up to developed Western countries. This is something that has never been done in the past and has no experience. Moreover, Western countries have been hostile to us for decades. No one can predict what consequences will be if they are open to them.
In addition, we have implemented a planned economy before, and no one has ever done market economy . Once it is opened, can we do anything to others?
It should be said that there are many people who hold this idea, and it is also the concerns about people's openness.
Because of this, Deng Xiaoping said that reform is also a revolution, and we must fight a bloody path! It can be seen that he has great determination, great courage and great courage!
Just as non-Mao Zedong could not make the decision to resist U.S. aggression and aid Korea, no other person dared to make the decision to reform and opening up!
Greatness is not self-proclaimed or spoken out, but is done in real life. After more than 40 years of struggle, the Chinese people have fought a bloody path with practical actions, greatly improved the people's living standards, greatly narrowed the gap with developed countries, and made great strides to the center of the world stage, basically achieving the established goals of reform and opening up.
Review the past few decades, whether it is the establishment of a special zone or the price reform; whether it is the addition of WTO, or the response to the Asian financial crisis, etc., the difficulty may be no less than sticking to Shangganling.
Of course, there will be rewards, and even huge sacrifices. This is the price of growth and the trouble of growth. Today, we need to summarize the experiences and lessons of reform and opening up, make new great decisions in the new historical period, and lead China to new glory!
