He firmly believed that only when the people of all China live a free and prosperous life is the real purpose of the revolution.

So, as early as when he was studying in Japan, he consciously came into contact with the advanced Marxist-Leninist ideas, and soon penetrated into it and became a glorious Communist Party member. After returning from Japan, Yang Yang told his advanced ideas to his brothers and sisters one after another.
