Chairman Mao said, be a student first, and then be a gentleman. Chen Ke has never had the consciousness of being a gentleman, and Confucius said that fifty knows the destiny of heaven. Even at the age of fifty-three, Chen Ke realized that his destiny was to always have the attitude of being a student and keep moving forward every day. To be a gentleman and a revolutionary mentor or something, he never thought about it.

Needless to say, every time he reads The Communist Manifesto, Chen Ke is overwhelmed by the profound ability of observation and induction, the highly condensed thinking, and the height of historical materialism, the revolutionary mentor Comrade Marx. I always sigh that Marx's predecessors are really university scholars. As for Chen Ke himself, he can only try his best to keep up with the times every day, and work hard to advance the productivity and social system of the time and space in which he is now located towards the time and space before Chen Ke. What he has to do is not to stand on the shoulders of giants, but to try to follow the steps of giants and run forward.

However, Chen Ke himself does not want to be a revolutionary mentor, which does not mean that other people in this era do not see Chen Ke in this way, after all, Chen Ke has more knowledge than this era for a hundred years, and Marx cannot accurately grasp the future development, but Chen Ke is a person who has seen the "future" with his own eyes.

Needless to say, Chen Ke's contribution to the "anti-feudal" matter in the time and space he is in now can be regarded as a contribution. He had seen the "feudal system" of the agricultural country, and he had also seen the "feudal remnants" of the industrial age. Comrade Stalin's "five-stage theory" of social development arose at a time when a theoretical guide was needed. The "feudal system" proposed by Chen Ke, from land division to power division and even the mixture of capitalism and feudalism under the industrialization system, is also a "temporary theory" that had to be put forward when it needed a theoretical guidance for the time being.

This theory existed as an anti-bureaucratic system in China, but it caused quite a reaction in Japan, a country with a strong feudal system, and many Japanese scholars who were in the dark suddenly saw a ray of light. After the Meiji Restoration in Japan, the industrialization system was introduced, and the old feudal system was not completely broken, in the fierce power struggle, the expansion of central power did eliminate some of the old systems, but the feudal system was not eliminated in Japan, and a large part of the feudal autocracy was strengthened because of industrialization.

Kita Ikki's public actions in Japan, with his propaganda and introduction, as well as the background of the Taisho democratic era, as well as the intensification of contradictions in Japan due to the failure of expansionism, many desperate intellectuals took Chen Ke's critique of the feudal system as a new guide. Although they could not yet support communism, they wanted to establish state capitalism. Or a mixed economy of socialism and capitalism.

Whether it is a socialist system or a capitalist system, this is a difference in the ownership of the means of production, and both systems are theoretically anti-feudal and anti-monopoly. So the Japanese revolution unexpectedly entered a new stage. The enemy facing the Japanese anti-feudalists was the Japanese upper strata, especially the military control faction that was gradually unifying the upper strata of Japan.

The success of the Chinese revolution set an example of how a country could not only rely on the support of its ordinary people to achieve liberation, but also begin to sweep away the feudal system on the basis of its own independence and liberation. Even if Chen Ke didn't think it was a big deal, in the eyes of the progressive forces in Japan, it was a truly great revolution.

Immediately, there was a dramatic change in Japan's domestic political thinking. The progressive forces, bitter about the "regression" in the later stages of the Meiji Restoration, "found" the reason for the failure of the Meiji Restoration. Even though the introduction of industrialization changed the way of productive forces in Japan, the Meiji Restoration failed to continue the anti-feudal reform, and even regressed to a certain extent. After "turning a few hands", especially after changing the hands of Chen Ke, a time-traveler, Marxism was actually integrated with the needs of the Japanese revolution at the request of the Japanese revolutionaries.

The original intention of Tanaka Yoshiichi to bribe the election was to strengthen the military department's right to speak in the country, but after all, this guy approved a "universal suffrage" skin and made certain concessions and compromises to the Japanese people. After this crack was opened, many political forces did not dare to put forward the program of socialism, so they wrapped the socialist program in the cloak of "anti-feudalism" and appeared in the Japanese political arena. In the midterm elections to Congress in 1933, anti-feudal parties accounted for more than half of the size.

This change frightened the upper strata of Japan, the capitalist system has capitalist democracy, the socialist system has socialist democracy, and the feudal system can even be copied and used by universal suffrage after putting on the skin of industrialization. The problem is that Japan is still feudal in nature, and when they can have blood parliamentarians, they will not give equal power to the "nouveau riche" bourgeois members of the faction. When the feudal system can be maintained, they will not support capitalist propertied class democracy. Not to mention the entry of parliamentarians who can identify with the demands of the working people into the parliamentary body of power.

In the mid-term elections to parliament, nearly 100 seats fell into the hands of parliamentarians who explicitly supported the anti-feudal movement, and 20 of them turned out to be legislators with relatively clear socialist tendencies. When the bourgeoisie and the working masses reached a united front above the "anti-feudal" front, the fear of the Japanese upper strata was indescribable.

Then the internal political struggle in Japan immediately intensified. The Japanese military command faction did not do anything new, and they began to frantically label those anti-feudal congressmen as "red hats" and publicize through various channels that these people were communists and socialists.

Japan has a tradition of suppressing and even killing communists and socialists by force, and the intention of such preparatory work was so obvious that the legislators immediately launched a counterattack. With the navy behind the unification faction, the anti-feudal parliamentarians turned their attention to the army, to the earliest anti-feudalists, and to Kita Ikki, who formed the "Japanese Anti-Feudal Alliance".

During this period, as if God had helped, there was a military conflict between China and Japan over Taiwan, and the Japanese upper echelons showed an uncompromising attitude and desperately intensified the propaganda of fighting to the death. At the same time, suspicious army units were sent to Taiwan. At the same time, he began to propagate that the unfavorable situation of the war in Japan was due to the presence of treasonous forces in the country.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs, headed by Lee Yun-seok, is responsible for intelligence gathering abroad. After the defection of the Japanese Army to the People's Party, Li Runshi personally took charge of it and finally made a clear analysis of the changes in the situation in Japan.

"Isn't this McCarthyism?" Chen Ke laughed in his heart. In his original time and space, from the late 40s to the early 50s of the 20th century, he set off an anti-communist and xenophobic movement represented by "McCarthyism", involving all levels of American politics, education, and culture, and its influence is still visible today. McCarthy is a pervert and a madman in the eyes of American capitalist democrats. But the American media's cap on Mr. McCarthy is: Amazing brave soul, great patriot.

As for McCarthyism, the means used are nothing more than making up a list of "traitors", giving people red hats, and a deep hatred of democracy. It is interesting that Japan has evolved to this point, and Chen Ke finds it so interesting.

But Chen Ke is in a thriving China, and he can certainly be amused by the change. Inside Japan, that's not funny at all. Except for war maniacs, no one in Japan thinks that Japan will be able to occupy Taiwan for a long time. This can be seen from the fact that Japanese officials prefer to stay in Japan rather than be promoted rather than go to Taiwan to become officials.

The Japanese Army was willing to fight China in the event of a Chinese invasion of the Japanese mainland, but the Japanese Army did not regard Taiwan as Japan's own territory at all, even the navy controlled by the pro-Domination faction. Unless it was a low-hanging fruit victory, or Marshal Heihachiro Togo personally led the army, the Japanese Navy had no intention of fighting a war of life and death.

The so-called nothing new under the sun, Chen Ke as an existence in the lower reaches of history, these drastic changes are not impactful at all in Chen Ke's view. Fools repeat history, smart people repeat history accurately, that's probably just the case. However, the anti-feudal movement in Japan has never appeared in history, but in China, Chen Ke is the anti-feudal standard-bearer. So Li Runshi also didn't feel anything strange about this incident. When Li Runshi attended a meeting of the Politburo Standing Committee, he simply asked Chen how he should deal with this problem.

Chen Ke said with a smile: "The Japanese obviously have no way to do it, and the level of engaging in this movement is too low. ”

"How?" The Politburo Standing Committee members all know that compared to intrigue and intrigues, Chen Ke can really be called a talent. There's a lot of interest in that.

Chen Ke gave his opinion, "It's easy to discredit the anti-feudal progressive forces, just get some populist ones to come out." Populism seems to be pro-democracy, but populism has extremely short-sighted characteristics, and although it is good at agitating the masses, it is essentially anti-science, and it will definitely make a lot of big jokes. Divide and compete for the mass base of the democrats by supporting populism, and discredit the democrats by fighting populism. When these populists come up with a big folly that can't be controlled, the masses will seek stability. At this time, the feudal rulers who grasped the science could appear as conservatives and easily take out the democrats. ”

"The feudal rulers of Japan had such a high level? Those who do not even agree with the materialist view of history cannot have the means to accurately grasp the situation. Chen Tianhua said with a smile. The other comrades could not help laughing, some of the strategies are subtle in the eyes of socialists, but this is also the ability of socialists to accurately judge and control. It is because of this ability that socialists simply do not waste their precious experience on such a boring thing.

Chen Tianhua asked: "Will Japan be revolutionary?" ”

"That depends on the choice of the Japanese people themselves." Chen Ke replied. Even at this time, he still had no intention of intervening in the Japanese political situation.
