130 Extremely reluctant compromise (3)
"Marxism has never been about warmth, because the purpose of warmth is never to tell the facts, but to cover up the facts. From my personal perspective and experience, I believe that Marxism is an ideological system that is most conducive to personal interests, because what this system pursues is, first of all, the self-emancipation of individuals. A person who has achieved self-emancipation, or at least is also his own master. Those who have achieved self-emancipation are bound to become members of the future ruling class. ”
When Chen Ke asked himself, he never considered himself a saint, let alone a moralist. After learning Marxism and Grandpa Mao's thoughts, and truly turning them into his own standards, Chen Ke found that his personal interests were protected for the first time. As far as Chen Ke saw Marxism and Grandpa Mao's anthology, he never talked about saints and great men. Instead, he sang in "The Internationale", "There has never been a savior, and it does not depend on the immortal emperor!" It is up to us to create human happiness. ”
If Marxism cannot satisfy the self-emancipation of mankind and the pursuit of personal interests. Then he is certainly not universal. Chen Ke does not look down on the "universal values" shouted by Europe, the United States and China, for the simple reason that there will be no common truth between sheep and wolves. There can be absolutely no common emancipation and interests between the exploiter and the exploited. If we want to maximize the interests of the individual, we must rely on a theoretical system that can liberate everyone.
At least in the system that Chen Ke came into contact with, there is no system that is more universal than Marxism and Grandpa Mao's thought. Even from the perspective of extreme revisionism, after learning Marxism and Grandpa Mao, a commoner can become a wolf that eats meat, not a sheep that is eaten.
"Comrades, don't laugh. We BJP people are first and foremost materialists, and as materialists, we must all recognize where our personal interests lie. What distinguishes the BJP from others is that we believe that the way to achieve personal interests lies in labor, not in exploitation. To put it simply, the land reform policy we have pursued so far has basically won the support of the broad masses. What I mean by support is that the masses of the people have accepted this policy and are working hard to create their own interests under this policy. I would like to take the land reform in which everyone has participated as an example: after the land reform, the total grain production in the base areas has increased by a large margin, and the living standards of the people have also been greatly improved. The amount of food and supplies that our People's Party has raised has also reached an unprecedented level. So what's at the heart of this new system? It is to promote the development of productive forces, not to strengthen exploitation. ”
Listening to Chairman Chen Ke's talk about the realization of personal interests, the comrades could not help but laugh. The hard work of the People's Party is unprecedented, and there are many educated party members, and there are many people who know the story of Dayu's water control. After the written record of Dayu's water control was translated into modern Chinese implemented by the People's Party, everyone knew what kind of hard work this great ancestor of the Chinese nation had experienced. The People's Party started with the floods, and the comrades all experienced the hard work of this great predecessor.
The actual results of the land reform can indeed make these comrades proud. Once socialized mass production is introduced, its power is terrifying. Under the leadership of Chairman Chen Ke, large tracts of farmland, irrigation systems throughout it, the implementation of various improved seeds, pesticides, iron farming tools, and various agricultural and sideline industries derived from them, as well as industrial construction supported by agricultural income, appeared in the base areas like tricks.
Very few of the cadres of the People's Party came from purely urban backgrounds, and the vast majority of them had all kinds of direct or slightly less direct contacts and understandings with the rural areas. As far as the People's Party's 30% tax is concerned, it is simply a low tax that has not been paid for hundreds of years. From the People's Party government to the masses at the grassroots level, the benefits have never been seen by the comrades.
These comrades have all worked in the front line and have a good understanding of the situation on the front line. While the achievement is something to be proud of, people don't think it's anything to celebrate. Because the labor paid by everyone is also unseen and unheard of. Labor has created everything in the base area, and labor has created a prosperous situation in front of us. Correspondingly, everyone deeply felt the hard work. If such workers are the future ruling class of China, it does not seem to be a matter of much to celebrate.
Chen Ke has never felt that such a ruling class is so enviable. In fact, under the socialized large-scale production system, a person's self-awakening begins with understanding the world, and those who understand the world must first see the cruel reality of the world. After Chen Ke himself realized this cruel reality, he found that many of the "human" things in him withered first, which is the price of the social transformation of human nature.
"Comrades, I have heard a very interesting saying, which is called "If you don't kill the poor, you won't get rich. This is the truth of the exploiting class, and nothing comes faster than institutional exploitation. Do you work hard to earn money by labor, there is a saying that describes it, money is hard to earn, and is hard to eat. But by exploitation, by taking the wealth of others to accumulate one's own wealth, this is much faster. Of course, some people say it's risky. However, Marx said that if capital has 50 percent profits, it will take risks, if it has 100 percent profits, it will dare to trample on all the laws of the world, and if it has 300 percent profits, it will dare to commit any crime, even at the risk of being beheaded. ”
There was another burst of laughter, and the laughter was full of understanding. In fact, everyone may not want to laugh, but there seems to be no other way to respond except laughing. What Chen Ke said was the truth, and there was no room for refutation. After the comrades finished laughing, many people frowned slightly. This kind of subconscious action is actually the expression of most of the comrades after Chen Ke's lecture.
"So, as I said earlier, whether our party is on the side of the propertied or on the side of the workers. In the new China created by our People's Party in the future, what kind of people will the ruling class have? Only by understanding these things can we have class consciousness. Of course, whether this consciousness is the consciousness of the propertied class or the consciousness of the proletariat depends on everyone's own choice. However, I would like to make it clear that our People's Party is a proletarian revolutionary party, and what we want to establish is absolutely a regime in which the proletarians are the masters of the country. ”
Chen Ke's personal lecture to the senior party cadres was by no means warm, and in the next three days, the comrades finally gained a certain degree of understanding of the other side of Chen Ke. If there were still many comrades who thought that Chairman Chen Ke was a "capable and good person" in the past, with the advancement of the course, no one regarded Chen Ke as a "good person" anymore. Chairman Chen Ke understands so many "means of exploitation" and so many "means of committing crimes". Most importantly, Chairman Chen Ke knows how to build the state as an "instrument of class rule" and how to run it as a tool to implement all sorts of gruesome policies. Comrades with rich practical work experience know very well that what Chairman Chen Ke said is not a simple conjecture. It's not just a matter of laughing. I actually followed such a figure, and I couldn't help but have a great impact on the hearts of many comrades.
Of course, Chen Ke is not without supporters, and during the group discussion, Shang Yuan clearly expressed his support for Chen Ke. Pointing to the banner of the People's Party, Shang Yuan pointed to the banner of the People's Party and said: "Comrades, when we swore allegiance to this banner, perhaps many comrades thought that we were going to walk a glorious revolutionary road. Judging by what has been achieved so far, we will inevitably have even greater achievements in the future. Our enemies look weak and ridiculous. But this is only part of the revolutionary process, and the world we live in now is full of tyranny, cruelty, and shamelessness, and how we should deal with the tyranny, cruelty, and shamelessness in this world is already an extremely difficult challenge. What is even more arduous is how we can break free ourselves from these tyranny, cruelty, and shamelessness and eradicate all injustice with a firm attitude is a very difficult task for us revolutionary comrades and for those of us who have the ambition to change the world. Because we ourselves have these tyranny, cruelty, and shamelessness. With class consciousness, we are likely to become more tyrannical, more cruel, and more shameless. ”
This is what teacher Li Hongqi once taught Shang Yuan, and Shang Yuan finally had a "revolutionary consciousness", which does not mean that other comrades can realize this level in one step.
"The world is so bad, there are no good people!" Chai Qingguo shouted loudly.
There was no one to do with him, Chen Ke did not glorify the People's Party's own regime, and the method of the People's Party to amass the surplus wealth of society was very clear at the meeting, "If other regimes amass wealth through the collection of taxes in kind or money, our People's Party has everything it has today through the accumulation of labor." This is the maximum use of Marx's basic principles, and only after we have a real class consciousness can we understand these things and achieve such achievements. ”
Many comrades of the People's Party sincerely believe that they have given great benefits to the masses of the people. Through Chen Ke's analysis and narration, everyone finally realized rationally that the People's Party is an organization that is proficient in "extraction" in China now, and even in the world. No wonder Chen Ke repeatedly emphasized, "Everything we do is created by labor, and everything we do is given by the people." At that time, many comrades still felt that Chairman Chen was singing a high profile and emphasizing political correctness. However, it is clear that President Chen Ke is not singing high notes, and it has nothing to do with emphasizing political correctness. What Chairman Chen Ke said was just one fact.
In this regard, Chai Qingguo especially couldn't accept it psychologically. When a person who firmly believes that he is the giver suddenly discovers that he is the biggest recipient of the giver, this huge psychological gap cannot be reversed overnight.
Chai Qingguo's mentality represents the mentality of a considerable number of comrades, and those who are relatively simple-minded feel extremely uncomfortable. For those who have more complex thoughts, they deeply feel a kind of fear. "If the people knew the truth, would they still support us?" Most of the cadres from the civil affairs background have such fear.
The BJP holds the vast majority of the assets in the current base areas. No comrade no longer thinks that Chairman Chen Ke's land reform policy of "one person, three acres of land" is good governance. Chairman Chen Ke saw early on the "capital scarcity problem" that the BJP was destined to encounter. Therefore, through the policy of "one person, three acres of land", the vast land capital was brought into the hands of the People's Party. This is really a leader with a "high level of class consciousness", and it is by relying on this huge land asset that the BJP has quickly built and continuously improved the BJP's financial system.
Sericulture, all kinds of manufacturing, and all kinds of capital in the hands of the People's Party have become excellent tools for gathering labor. By selling their labor power, the masses in the base areas have allowed the BJP to amass wealth on an unprecedented scale. It was this wealth that supported the People's Party to build a large army and in a very short period of time to achieve a considerable degree of industrialization in the base areas using the world trade system.
If the masses in the base areas realized this, they chose not to cooperate with the BJP .......
This kind of thinking reminds many people of what Chen Ke has always admonished, "The so-called support of the silent majority means that the masses under the system have followed the order provided by the system, and when they are trying to realize their own interests, they have made the system develop and swell unprecedentedly." ”
"Serving the people is the best way to save one's own life, and a government is only a government if the people still accept these orders. When the BJP abandoned order, there were only a few people left in the government. The so-called dufu refers to the kind of person who is abandoned. ”
That's cruelty! After Chen Ke told his comrades the truth about the world, everyone felt the cruelty. The comrades realized this, and they understood why Chen Ke had been vague on many things, or had simply not explained. If Chen Ke had told his comrades everything at the beginning, everyone was not sure whether he would have followed Chen Ke so fearlessly to carry out the revolution. It may be a great blessing not to know this.
Shang Yuan's agitation obviously did not have an effect, and Chai Qingguo's speech was the forerunner. Soon some people began to question what Chen Ke was telling. This is not the problem of questioning Chen Ke's specific implementation in the past, but really questioning whether there is a problem with the theoretical system proposed by Chen Ke.
And Chai Qingguo's sentence "The world is so bad, there are no good people!" "It's quite summing up indeed.
"Where is the legitimacy of our BJP revolution? Was it the overthrow of the Manchus? Is it the liberation of China? Or what? ”
"How does the people's revolution corroborate with what we have carried out and done so far?"
"What kind of country are we going to build in the end? What is the country really like? ”
Shang Yuan listened coldly to the excited speeches of the comrades, and only temporarily recorded the questions raised by everyone, and did not give direct answers. Chen Tianhua, who had not said anything, stood up suddenly, "Nothing can be done overnight. After eating five steamed buns, you are full, then you only need to eat the fifth, don't you need to eat the first four? ”
Because of his anger, Chen Tianhua's voice became sharp, "Yes, our People's Party does know how to accumulate wealth better than any political force, but this wealth is used to develop productive forces. All of them have been used to improve the ability of the people. This is our justice. ”
At this time, Wu Xingchen also stood up, Chen Tianhua was slightly stunned, Wu Xingchen is a comrade who has been politically censored, although he is old, this experience is by no means something that can be described with brilliance. Could it be that Wu Xingchen is ready to rise up and go against the tune?
"Chairman Chen has repeatedly emphasized one thing, the people's revolution is not the revolution of our People's Party, first of all, the revolution is conceived in the broad masses of the people, all we have to do is to hear the call of the people's revolution, and realize the legitimate needs of the people through the revolution. I have heard from some comrades that their understanding of this issue seems to be reversed. People seem to think that the people's revolutionary needs only existed after the emergence of our People's Party, but I don't think this view is correct. After saying this, Wu Xingchen glared at Chai Qingguo fiercely.
Chai Qingguo didn't say these words after much thought, but he couldn't turn around psychologically for a while. Being glared at by Wu Xingchen like this, he knew that he must have said something wrong. Standing up, Chai Qingguo said: "I am here to make a statement, I absolutely support Chairman Chen and the Party Central Committee. So my statement is not to oppose Chairman Chen and the Party Central Committee, I just feel that there are some things that I have not understood. So I hope that Chairman Chen will be able to speak more clearly in these aspects. ”
Shang Yuan just stared at Chai Qingguo for a moment, he still didn't say anything, and continued to record something.
Some other comrades who raised objections saw Chai Qingguo turn the direction so cleverly, and their eyes showed disdain.
Chen Tianhua was afraid that these things would be out of control, no matter how Shang Yuan looked at it, he looked like he had a black account, he said: "If you don't understand anything, just make it clear, and the group meeting is to let everyone put forward their own opinions." Intra-party democracy in our People's Party is, first and foremost, democracy at the grassroots level and speaking freely. Since Chairman Chen has said a lot of things, let's put our views on it. Figure it out in the rest of the discussion. ”
Shang Yuan looked at Chen Tianhua for a while, and finally spoke, "Comrade Chen Tianhua's speech is very good, and the People's Party is not Chairman Chen Ke's words. I think you should make your thoughts clear, because this meeting is supposed to discuss the core ideas and political views of the BJP. There's no need to hide it. ”
With these comrades in higher positions setting the tone, the discussion finally developed in an orderly direction.
