A two-day face-to-face meeting between Chinese and U.S. diplomats in Alaska concluded on March 19. The official media of the Communist Party of China (CPC) applauded Yang Jiechi, the director of the Foreign Affairs Office of the CPC Central Committee.
At the same Time, the People’s Daily microblogging site also produced a propaganda image “Two Years of Xin Chou Comparison”, showing the signing of the 1901 Treaty of Xin Chou and the U.S.-China high-level dialogue, respectively. In fact, this is not the first time that the Chinese Communist Party has used the Xin Chou Treaty to create a “100-year comparison chart between China and the United States” for propaganda and to stir up national emotions.
Three years ago, during the U.S.-China trade talks, on May 21, 2018, the official microblogging site of the Communist Youth League forwarded a “China-U.S. Centennial Comparison Chart,” in which a photo of Chinese officials meeting on Capitol Hill was compared with a photo of the Qing Dynasty signing the Xin Chou Treaty in 1901. However, this picture of the Communist Youth League was sent out shortly afterwards and was then kicked out for falsification, that is, the left side of the picture is indeed the Chinese negotiating team, but the right side of the picture is a row of “gray-haired” U.S. lawmakers, not the U.S. negotiators at all.
Whether it is the “100-year comparison chart between China and the United States” or the comparison of the U.S.-China trade war to the Opium Wars, the Chinese Communist Party is using this to insinuate that the power of the European and American powers is on the decline today, but in fact, it also shows that the Chinese Communist Party, just like the Manchurian Qing Dynasty on the eve of its demise, still hopes to rely on the “people’s morale available It is still hoping to rely on “the people’s morale” to face the growing trend of “global anti-communism”.
For example, in this meeting, Yang Jiechi responded to some statements made by the U.S. side, which at first glance sounded overbearing but at a later stage sounded sorrowful, such as this one: Are we still suffering from the foreigners? For example, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has been the victim of opium production and sales in China.
For example, Taiwan‘s Central News Agency reported that Taiwan’s Ministry of Justice Investigation Bureau kept a booklet on the “entire conspiracy of the Chinese Communist Party during the war”, which was witnessed by Li Faqing, secretary of the party branch of the 18th Army Group.
It was disclosed that Mao Zedong gave confidential instructions to the 18th Army Corps in 1940 to use the “7, 2, 1” strategy to falsely commit to the war against Japan and to increase its strength by 7 percent, and that the Chinese Communist Party had been planting and manufacturing opium on a large scale in Shaanxi, Gansu, Ning and Sui Provinces since 1931 in order to absorb the wealth of the people and expand its force, killing and injuring people’s health. During the period of the People’s Commune, it was even exported to the world by means of collective drug production and trafficking.
In the Special Collections of the Bureau of Investigation, the “Distribution of Communist drug-growing areas” shows that the Communist Party’s opium-growing counties were located in all provinces of mainland China, and even as far as Xinjiang and Tibet.
In the Special Collections Collection, the Central Narcotics Bureau’s survey not only shows the area and quantity of opium cultivation, but also explains in detail where opium comes from and where it goes. For example, how do you get poppies? The survey pointed out that the Chinese Communist Party had colluded with The Japanese army to obtain seeds, and then cultivated them themselves to gradually expand the area under cultivation; and that people in the border areas were not allowed to smoke opium at the time, with the aim of ensuring that opium could be sold abroad. In other words, the “logistical support” of the border areas back then meant that there was no war with the Japanese army, and the main business was drug cultivation and drug trafficking; this was also the main reason why Mao Zedong took the initiative to express his gratitude to Japan for the war against China when he met with the Japanese many times, which allowed the Communist Party to breathe and grow, and eventually rebelled and usurped the leadership of the Kuomintang.
In response to Yang Jiechi’s remark that “Have we suffered less from the foreigners?” Some netizens thought it sounded like a “disgruntled woman”, while others mockingly interpreted it as saying that the party officials and powerful people were suffering from the green card, democratic freedom and freedom of speech in the United States.
A decade ago, CCTV reported that data from the 2011 China Private Wealth Report revealed that 75 percent of the second generation of Chinese officials at the ministerial level and above (including those who have retired) have U.S. green cards or citizenship, and more than 91 percent of the third generation have U.S. citizenship. The main reasons these people choose to immigrate are: to facilitate their children’s Education, to secure their wealth, and to prepare for their future retirement.
In July of last year, when news broke that the U.S. had banned Chinese Communist Party members from becoming citizens, immigration lawyers said the only way for them to get a green card was to resign from the Party. The search for “how to quit the party” increased by 150% and the search for “resignation process” soared by 120%, showing that many CCP members still want to “defect” to the United States.
