In Japan, "cultural activities" began when young Chinese generals took to the streets to celebrate "cultural activities" in Tiananmen Square with the slogan "Break the Four Olds" (old ideas, old cultures, old customs, and old habits). The rise of the "cultural activity" theory in Japan has also become a source of vibrancy. In Japan, as in China, "cultural activities" are considered to be a "revolution that touches the soul of mankind."

Japan's "Modern Eye" is based on the domestic and international factors, starting from the stage theory of the Chinese revolution, and by discussing the background of the movement of young generals. Kurai Ryozo, Yamada Reizo, Usamiji, and Kaoru Murakami commented on the theme of "Joint Discussion: Where China Will Go?" In the context of international isolation, why is there a purge movement in China? Critics discussed whether it was a "power struggle" (Usamiz), a "difference in revolutionary line" (Kurai Ryozo), a "system consolidation to participate in the Vietnam War" (Reizo Yamada), or a deliberate deification of Mao in order to overcome domestic economic difficulties. In his article "The Present Stage of the Chinese Revolution," Ryo Nakajima pointed out: "The movement of young generals is different from the violent revolution in which the masses were mobilized in the past, and while the army supported the mainstream forces of the party, the cult of personality of Mao Da continued to deepen." On the other side of the gradual decline in the effectiveness of Mao Dada's theory, "after the extremely arbitrary and subjective dogma was absolutized, the proposition of looking for class enemies from the various remnants of the old society and carrying out the class struggle for 100 or 200 years arose."

It is worth noting the book "Run! Youngsters". Saito Tatsuho, who is widely known as a film critic, later had the special experience of being a martial arts Maoist. He very much agreed with Mao Dada's statement in the "Report on the Investigation of the Peasant Movement in Hunan" that "revolution is an insurrection, a violent action of a class to overthrow a class," and held that the indulgence of the young generals is precisely the "original intention of the revolution" that the Japanese left-wing forces lacked, and that "in the process of carrying out the revolution, it is very necessary to have the mind to tolerate minor indulgence or excesses." Take a look at the change movement that took place in Japan since then. We can see that this article overemphasized the activism of Mao Dada's thought, and it can be said that on the one hand, it opened the door to tolerate violent revolution, and on the other hand, it also became the fuse that intensified the anti-Japanese Communist Party's New Left student movement's line of armed struggle.

With the advent of young players, "cultural activities" have also greatly changed the traditional Japanese impression of China. The transformation of the image of the previous peasant revolution into a fresh image of the urban revolution in which young people played the leading roles brought a new wind to the student movement in Japan. Mao Da's thought, which was a movement that gained a new interpretation, also played a role in synchronizing and promoting the New Left student movement. Meantime. Japanese critics also gained unique views such as the "Chinese-style commune theory" and the "self-reliant economic theory", which provided useful inspiration for the later "community theory" and "endogenous development theory".

The radical farce of rebellion staged by urban students such as the young generals greatly changed the image of the peasant revolution, which had always been firmly entrenched, and provided a broad perspective for those who are not interested in China to actively focus on the reality of China. In particular, the student activists outside the left-wing forces at that time sought to take the line of martial arts, and at the same time made the movement itself change from energetic to full of murderous spirit. The prelude to the drama of "cultural activities" is about to reach a climax.

At the beginning of the year, 15 overseas Chinese students living at the Tokyo Good Neighbor Student Association appeared at the headquarters of the Japan-China Friendship Association on the first floor to protest against the association's clerks tearing up a poster posted in the main entrance hall. After the clash between the two sides. The respective supporters arrived one after another. The students set up barricades in front of the association's headquarters, restricting the freedom of movement of more than 60 people who were still in the headquarters. On March 2, the two sides skirmished into a group fight, resulting in bloodshed, and finally the Metropolitan Police Department's mobile team also intervened. On the 6th, at a truth report meeting co-sponsored by the Orthodox Headquarters for Chinese Students, the Japan Chinese Exchange Association, and the Japan Association for the Promotion of International Trade, Chief Representative Sun Pinghua of the Liao Chengzhi Office in Tokyo strongly criticized the Japanese Communist Party's approach. China's People's Daily also published a commentary on 11 June "protesting against the anti-China atrocities of the Japanese Communist Party revisionists."

As relations between the Japanese Communist Party and the Chinese Communist Party continued to deteriorate, the Chinese side supported the anti-Japanese Communist pro-China groups. Therefore, not only anti-Japanese communist groups, but also the Chinese government has become the target of criticism by the Japanese Communist Party. The contradictions between the two sides gradually escalated from mutual criticism to mutual abuse. The pro-China faction in Japan has constantly expressed their loyalty and friendship to China under the leadership of Mao. In this regard, the Japanese Communist Party criticized him as "Mao's blind follower". In short, around people's different mentalities towards "cultural activities", a sense of terror and confusion coexist, violence is promoted, and impulsiveness leads to action. The result is a state of chaos that borders on multiple hysteria.

In China, the collective martial arts initiated by young generals gradually stopped, but in Japan, the student movement, led by the Japanese University and Tokyo University, centered on the "All-School Fighting Conference" at universities across the country, has developed into martial arts, and the flames of martial arts have intensified. At the main entrance of the University of Tokyo hung a sign that read, "Rebellion is justified" and "The emperor is dissolved." The same slogan was hung at Kyoto University, and Kanda became a liberated area called the "Kanda Student Zone". The paved stones became weapons thrown in the confrontation, and barricades were set up in key areas.

The flame of "cultural activities" that ignited the fuse of the Japanese student movement, marked by the "fall of the Todai Yasuda Lecture Hall" incident, was gradually covered by popular culture and mass consumer society, and its influence among students also rapidly weakened. However, the fire is not completely extinguished. The fire of the school park,In a more radical、Ignited other fires in a more radical、Sharp way。 The struggle to prevent the revision of the Japan-US Security Treaty in the sixties gradually turned into a stronghold-type armed struggle involving various factions of the New Left. The struggle, which began with the school-of-school conflict centered on the throwing of stones and the use of sticks, gradually escalated to organized movements such as the Red Army faction with the goal of world revolution and military theory as the core.

PS: Japan's cultural movement is a part that I have wanted to rewrite since the beginning of the book, but unfortunately this book is ill-fated, the outline is very brief due to impulse when the book was first opened, and then it has experienced the largest wave of 404 books in recent years, and this book is also honored to be sealed for two days......

After it was released, the original very brief outline became more fragmented, so a lot of things I wanted to write didn't dare to write or didn't dare to write in detail, but I didn't write elsewhere, if I didn't write this, I had to be entangled to death, but I didn't dare to make the space too big, so it was inevitable to become a little dry, please forgive me! (To be continued.) )
