In the half month since they came to Moscow, Ye Ziping and Ye Kai, father and son, have not been idle for a moment.

This time, the backbone of the members of the delegation he brought over was basically his team in the Propaganda Department, with a strong pen and a deep understanding of theory, Ye Kai's ideas were easy to implement, and a series of articles were written around his main ideas.

In fact, Ye Ziping has had a relatively systematic study of the reform and opening up, and at this time he has experienced personal experience in the Soviet Union, so he can naturally make a more obvious comparison.

In fact, Ye Ziping has now discovered that the crisis facing the Soviet Union is far more serious than what outsiders have observed.

In mid-January of this year, the Supreme Soviet of the USSR adopted two resolutions: first, a referendum on March 17 to decide whether to retain the Union; The second question and answer to the referendum are: "Do you think it is necessary to preserve the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics as a federation of sovereign republics capable of guaranteeing the human rights and freedoms of citizens of any nationality?" Yes" or "No".

The results are now in, the March 17 vote showed that the overwhelming majority of citizens were in favor of retaining the union, but Gorbachev did not take any measures to retain the union, and after the referendum, the secession trend continued to grow, and Russia passed the decision to establish a presidential post on Russian territory, and the support of the Soviet Union had fallen to about 12% by this time.

The crisis in the Soviet Union was no longer just an economic crisis, but the political crisis had reached a very dangerous level, and Gorbachev's ideas were full of illusions and unreality, and his vain attempt to rely on the market economy to obtain aid from Western countries could only end in failure.

Feeling this, Ye Ziping's thoughts on summing up the lessons and lessons of the Soviet Union's reform are even stronger, especially focusing on summarizing the root causes of the serious crisis facing the Soviet Union at present, such as the CPSU's abandonment of the leadership of the country, illusions about the West, incomplete economic reform, and the reform of the political system in the wrong direction, etc., which are very clearly reflected in his articles.

Although Ye Ziping has not yet finished his visit to the Soviet Union, some of his articles have been sent back to China one after another.

After Old Man Ye saw his son's article, he pondered for a long time, and then decided to send the article to Comrade Jiang Cheng, Comrade Fang He, and Comrade Chu Feng as it was.

Two days later, Comrade Fang He suggested that this series of articles be circulated within the Central Political Bureau, and this suggestion was approved by Comrade Jiang Cheng, and Comrade Chu Feng did not object.

Ye Ziping's article aroused heated discussions within the Central Political Bureau, and although there was considerable controversy, Ye Ziping looked for the root cause of the current predicament in the Soviet Union from the front and back of the Soviet reform, and compared it with the domestic reform cause, and this approach was still approved by the majority of comrades.

After another three days, the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee suggested that the scope of circulation of the article be expanded to cadres at and above the level of deputy department and bureau level, and that the relevant units should conduct a detailed study and analysis of the Soviet reform process to verify the objectivity of Comrade Ye Ziping's article.

Ye Ziping's series of articles caused a shock among the vast number of cadres.

The central authorities have always been in a state of not talking about the achievements of reform and opening up, especially after the sharp rise of conservative forces, and there is a great deal of meaning to completely negate the achievements of reform and opening up, but in the hearts of the majority of cadres and the masses, they are certainly unwilling to go backwards; although some corrupt phenomena in recent years have made everyone feel deeply disgusted, but if we want to go back to the era when class struggle was the key link, not many people are really willing to approve of it, and even in today's leadership, few people are willing to do so.

The bitter lessons of the past ten years and the bloody memories are really deeply frightening.

Even when conservative forces talk about ideological struggle, they only use it to attack their opponents.

However, Ye Ziping's actions still caused a backlash from some people.

Minister He Yun of the Propaganda Department never thought that Ye Ziping would make such a big move when he was sent abroad, and it was obvious that now after his efforts, not only did it not play a role in weakening Ye Ziping's influence, but on the contrary, it gave him a feeling of being like a fish in water, and directly entered the field of vision of cadres from the top to the middle.

"Let Ye Ziping go to the Soviet Union, this is a stinky move!" After Chen Lifang learned about this, he shook his head angrily, and said in his heart He Yun is really a bit simplistic when he thinks about things, you send him to the Soviet Union, it is better to send him to the United States! At least let him be exposed to capitalism, and the consequences will not be worse than the current ones, and it will be difficult to manage.

"The situation is obvious now, and the old Ye family plans to push Ye Ziping to the forefront." Chen Zhaowu frowned and said to Chen Lifang, "I guess what Ye Xiangqian means is probably to send Ye Ziping to the Central Political Bureau." ”

"How is that possible?" Chen Lifang said contemptuously, "Ye Xiangqian's appetite is inevitably too great, do the father and son still want to meet in the Central Political Bureau?!" ”

"That's hard to say." Chen Zhaowu shook his head and said, "Ye Xiangqian is also old, and after this session is over, he will definitely retire, and it is logical to use this condition to support Ye Ziping to enter the political situation in the Central People's Republic of China." ”

"If that's the case, it's possible." Chen Lifang touched his chin and blinked his eyes, but he also had some doubts in his heart, doubting that Ye Xiangqian was really willing to retreat, after all, judging from Ye Xiangqian's age and physical condition, it was not a big problem to persist for another term.

Ye Ziping is only forty years old, and he can only belong to the junior generation when he enters the Central Political Bureau, and without Ye Xiangqian's continued support, it is difficult to imagine that he can get enough say in the members of the Central Political Bureau, who are generally over 65 years old.

Being young is an advantage sometimes, but in the political situation of emphasizing qualifications and experience, it must be a disadvantage, unless Ye Ziping can get amazing political achievements to prove himself, but, is this possible?

Chen Lifang felt that Ye Ziping did not open up the situation when he was in the Propaganda Department, even if he went to the Soviet Union to toss such a series of articles and entered the field of vision of the bigwigs, he may not have the ability to break into the Chinese political situation with strong barriers and gain a firm foothold.

"If the old Ye family really plans to support Ye Ziping to enter the game, do we want to obstruct it?" Chen Zhaowu asked.

"Why obstruct it? We're going to push him again! Chen Lifang said with a smile, "Does the forty-year-old member of the Central Political Bureau have any other role besides being a target?" ”

If Ye Ziping really entered the Central Political Bureau, then the young person, like a dark horse mixed in the white horse herd, would definitely be unanimously rejected by his colleagues.

At that time, there will be no need for the old Chen family to do it, and it is estimated that it will have already been attacked by the crowd.

"It's still big brother, you think far-reaching." Chen Zhaowu agreed with a smile.
