Rebirth: I am in Jin-Cha-Ji

These candidates were then elected at the 10th Central Committee to select the members of the Politburo. However, the Chairman crossed out Zhou Bin's name from the list of candidates.

"Why, do you think there's a problem?"

"Yes."

Wei Hongjun said directly, "Comrade Zhou Bin is currently responsible for my country's fiscal and monetary policies, as well as the nation's financial sector. As my country's economy develops, socialist finance must also develop in tandem. However, if Comrade Zhou Bin cannot join the Politburo, it will appear that our Communist Party does not prioritize the development of the financial sector. This is detrimental to the development of socialist finance."

The Chairman shook his head and said, "The Communist Party is the Communist Party of China, and the Central Committee is the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. It is not founded by our family. How can there be brothers in the Politburo?"

"Chairman, I don't think that's entirely true."

Wei Hongjun argued, "Comrade Zhou Bin is indeed your brother, but he is able to make it to where he is today not because he is your brother, but because he made significant contributions to the revolution during the revolutionary era and the construction of New China."

"You."

Seeing Wei Hong and Wei Jun persist, the Chairman couldn't help but smile and said, "Of course I know, but he's my brother after all. As a revolutionary, I have to endure this little injustice." "Chairman, I'm not trying to get political treatment for Comrade Zhou Bin. I'm trying to make him shoulder greater responsibilities."

Wei Hongjun didn't back down. He said, "Chairman, since my country developed the processing trade, Hong Kong has become an important trade transit point. A large amount of goods enter the mainland through Hong Kong, and at the same time, a large amount of goods from the mainland are sold to the world through Hong Kong."

"A major trading port can easily develop into a major financial center. This is because a trading port requires supporting shipping companies, and large amounts of cargo are accompanied by large amounts of capital. The flow of large amounts of capital requires institutions to serve these funds. As these institutions grow in number, Hong Kong will naturally become a financial center."

"Hong Kong is already showing this trend. A large number of banks, investment firms, and insurance companies of all sizes have emerged in Hong Kong, serving trading and shipping companies. In the future, capital from all over the world will flow into Hong Kong, further enhancing its financial status."

"my country must make preparations in this regard early on. As Hong Kong's financial sector develops, we must cultivate our own financial talents and actively participate in Hong Kong's financial sector to understand its specific circumstances."

"This requires us to establish some financial companies in Hong Kong. We must have our own strong financial power in Hong Kong to continue to support the development of my country's trade and help Chinese companies go global. Comrade Zhou Bin is fully qualified to take on this task."

"Chairman, not being elected to the Central Committee is one thing. But I think it's wrong for the Chairman to simply deny him the opportunity to run for Politburo membership."

The chairman was silent for a moment. Then he said, "I understand this matter. Please give me some time to think about it."

"Yes."

The Chairman put down the document in his hand, lit a cigarette for himself, and said, "I have had more time recently, and I have a lot of things to think about. In the past, I only considered how to carry out socialist construction in China, but recently I have been studying the international communist movement.

I think about a lot of issues related to international trade.”

"I used to think that Marxists and Leninists were naturally internationalists. So the goal of the international communist movement was to promote socialist revolution throughout the world, to make every country a socialist country, so that the conditions for global communism would be ripe."

"But lately I've been reading Marx,

There are also books about international trade. My thinking has gradually changed. I used to think too simply. In a communist society,

It's not that everyone agrees with Marxism and everyone is a socialist country and can enter. Marx's most profound point is that productivity must be highly developed.

Only when productivity is highly developed can we enter communism."

Wei Hongjun listened quietly.

The Chairman does have more time than before and considers more theoretical issues.

The Chairman continued, "So I also consider the issue of international trade. Even if the entire world were socialist, as long as states and political regimes still exist, and given that each country is at a different stage of development in productivity, economic cooperation is essential."

"As long as there is economic cooperation, there will be trade, and socialist countries will engage in material transactions. As long as there is trade between products, whether it is done with money or through barter, it actually falls under the category of commodity transactions. Since it is commodity trading, the law of value will definitely come into play."

"In other words, as long as the entire world doesn't enter communism together, the commodity economy will not completely disappear. I think the Party needs to have a clearer understanding of this point, and we must absolutely not neglect the study of the commodity economy and the law of value."

"I've been thinking recently that the Soviet Union and we focused more on domestic economic development, so when it comes to the law of value, we also focus more on domestic economic development. In contrast, we have done less research on the law of value in international trade. my country's international trade is developing, but research on international trade is lagging behind."

"While you are writing the 'political economics course', you should also focus on theoretical research on international trade."

"Yes."

Wei Hongjun nodded. The Chairman's research on commodity economy and the law of value was becoming increasingly in-depth.

He not only considered the commodity economy in domestic economic development, but also began to study the commodity economy in international trade. He also deduced from international trade the relationship between socialist countries and the state power structure before socialism entered communism.

"Chairman, Comrade Zhou Bin is a great expert in this area."

Wei Hongjun mentioned Zhou Bin's name again.

The chairman smiled.

Wei Hongjun was about to talk about international trade again, but then the Prime Minister called.

"Mr. Chairman, according to the news from the Chinese Embassy in India, the newly appointed Indian Prime Minister Shastri has informed us that he is willing to hold border negotiations with us."

1127 Civil Unrest in India

After the Congress Party nominated Shastri as the new Prime Minister of India, it immediately contacted the Chinese Ambassador to India.

Expressing the desire for negotiation is actually telling China immediately that we admit defeat and that the Chinese military must not take any action.

Then Shastri told the United States and the Soviet Union that India had made all preparations and was waiting to sign the "Sino-Indian Boundary Treaty" with China.

The Congress Party directly told the US and Soviet representatives that the US and the Soviet Union should quickly find a solution acceptable to both China and India so that we can sign it quickly.

China certainly wouldn't go to India to sign the treaty, as China, as a victor, should remain reserved. India also disagreed with going to China to sign, as that would be like begging for mercy. Another point is that China and India had just fought a war, and there was a lack of trust between them, so neither side was willing to go to the other's territory.

So in the end, it was the Soviet Union that proposed that representatives of China and India come to Moscow for negotiations, and that the Soviet Union be willing to host them. Khrushchev would not miss any opportunity to enhance his own prestige.

China and India negotiated and signed the treaty in Moscow, and the whole world knew that the Sino-Indian War was ultimately mediated by the Soviet Union. Being able to mediate a war between two major powers, China and India, would be a source of praise for everyone involved.

The Soviet Union was already a superpower with enormous influence. Its successful mediation of the Sino-Indian war meant that countries in the Middle East and Africa might need the Soviet Union's intervention in future conflicts.

After confirming Moscow, Shastri urged China to go to Moscow to negotiate and sign the treaty as soon as possible. Because Shastri was in a hurry, or rather, India was in a hurry. The Congress Party and India really couldn't drag it out any longer.

As long as a treaty is not signed with China and the chaos in India cannot be resolved, the problems in India will become bigger and bigger.

The previous battle with Pakistan. It was not enough that Pakistan occupied Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh,

As well as part of Uttarakhand, they are occupied by Pakistani troops. Why does Pakistan not withdraw from these places?

This is because Pakistan knows that as long as China and India do not sign a border treaty and there is no real ceasefire, the Indian Defense Forces will not dare to act arbitrarily.

Since there is no treaty, who knows what the Chinese think? If the Indian Defense Forces make unusual movements, will the Chinese military think that the Indian Defense Forces are going to fight them again?

Although the possibility of this happening is very low, India is not taking any chances. The Indian defense forces now shudder at the mere mention of the Chinese army, truly fearing the enemy like a tiger. A single battle with the Chinese army would have made India realize just how vast the gap is between itself and the Chinese military.

If there is another conflict with the Chinese army, and the Chinese army causes another 100,000 casualties to the Indian defense forces,

By then the Indian regime will collapse.

Therefore, before signing the treaty with China, the Indian Defense Forces did not dare to make any moves and could only watch as Pakistani troops occupied so many areas.

Pakistan understands the current situation, so the army stays here with swagger. Pakistan has taken advantage of this good opportunity to madly suppress Hinduism in these areas, and even demolished a large number of Hindu churches. There are also Muslims in these areas. In the past, Hinduism was strong and suppressed these Muslims. Now with the support of the Pakistani army, these Muslims fought back and began to suppress Hinduism. And their suppression,

This was followed by a bloody crackdown. Within a short period of time, thousands of Hindus died at the hands of the Pakistani army and Muslims. With no other options, large numbers of Hindus fled south for refuge.

This is extremely detrimental to the stability of the entire northern region.

Therefore, the Congress Party is now very anxious. It must quickly resolve the border issue with China and then concentrate its efforts on driving the Pakistani troops back. Otherwise, it is unknown what kind of trouble these areas in northwestern India will suffer at the hands of Pakistan.

This is the northwest region, and the situation in other parts of India is also very serious. India's majority ethnic group, the Hindu Hindustani people, are mainly concentrated in Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, and Madhya Pradesh. Therefore, in order to protect the core areas and fearing a real attack by the Chinese army, the Indian government previously deployed a large number of national defense troops to Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, and Bihar.

As a result, the strength of the national defense forces in the southern region has been greatly reduced, and the Congress Party can no longer stabilize the south.

Andhra Pradesh demands that the Indian government give Andhra Pradesh more autonomy and establish an Andhra Autonomous State.

The majority of Andhra Pradesh's population is Telugu-speaking people, who have been demanding more autonomy. Because they were so agitated, the Indian government formed the Andhra Pradesh state from the Telugu-speaking areas north of Madras in 1953 and designated it as a Category A state.

However, they were still dissatisfied and believed that the Indian government should give them more power. Under pressure, in 1956, the Indian government agreed to change the name of Andhra Province to Andhra Pradesh. Andhra Pradesh made Telugu the official language of the state. Andhra Pradesh was the first state in India to be divided by language.

Now that India's central government is weakening, Andhra Pradesh is demanding much more than before, including independent legislative and executive powers, the retention of a certain military, becoming a semi-independent autonomous state, and abolishing the promotion of Hindi in schools.

Of course, even though Andhra Pradesh has high demands, it at least recognizes the Congress Party and the Indian government.

Recognize itself as an autonomous state of India.

But the big state of southern India, Tamil Nadu, is not so easy to deal with. Ever since the news of the Indian National Defense Forces' disastrous defeat came, Tamil Nadu has been ready to take action.

After the Indian government dispatched its national defense forces to the north, Tamil Nadu formally proposed to secede from India and establish a new Tamil state. This was not a sudden idea.

Rather, the language and culture of Tamil Nadu differ significantly from those of the Hindustani peoples to the north. Tamil, a Dravidian language, and Hindi, an Indo-European language, differ greatly, and the living habits of the two ethnic groups are also very different.

So as early as 1937, before India's independence,

The Dravidian Tea Movement protested against the introduction of Hindi as a compulsory language in schools, calling it a "subjugation of the Tamils." The protests against Hindi resulted in heavy casualties.

Because the Hindustani people are completely different from the Tamils, when India gained independence, the Tamil nationalist politician Ramaswamy Naik supported Pakistan's demands and tried to establish Dravidian State in the same way as Pakistan. However, at that time, India, led by the Congress Party, was strong.

Several leaders of the Congress Party were very powerful, so independence was not achieved. However, the Tamil people's desire for independence has never stopped.

In 1957, the Dravidian Progressive Union made "a separate Tamil Nadu" its core proposition in the state assembly elections.

It's just that the Indian central government is so powerful that it has never had a chance. Now the Indian Defense Force has suffered heavy casualties, and it can even be said that the Indian Defense Force's mobile forces have been completely destroyed. For a country as large as India, the Defense Force has only about 300,000 troops left.

India is so big that this amount of troops is completely useless.

Moreover, the Indian National Defense Forces also have to guard against Pakistan, so it can basically be said that the current Indian central government has no troops to mobilize.

This gave Tamil Nadu the best chance of independence.

While they openly declared their desire for independence and the establishment of a new independent state, they also officially banned the promotion of Hindi within the state. Many Tamils ​​even burned Hindi textbooks, demonstrating that they, the Tamils, did not want to learn Hindi.

There are also some radical Tamils ​​who have started to expel teachers who teach Hindi, and some have even beaten to death teachers who teach Hindi. Expelling Hindi quickly became politically correct in Tamil Nadu.

And under this political correctness, the Tamils ​​also expelled the Hindustani people living in Tamil Nadu.

Although Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu have different demands, they are united in banning Hindi education and expelling Hindustani people. They both believe that forcibly promoting Hindi is an oppression of their ethnic group.

Therefore, there was a vigorous campaign to ban Hindi in both states. In the process of banning Hindi, many Hindustani people were also affected.

They were expelled and even beaten to death by fanatical nationalists.

It can be said that after the Indian central government lost its deterrent power over the local areas, anti-Hindu language and expulsion of Hindustani people became daily activities in some states.

In addition to these two states, three other states have seen fierce armed conflict, one of which is Kerala, where the Communist Party of India first came to power.

As the first place where the Communist Party of India (CPI) came to power, the CPI had a very solid foundation. The CPI was elected here on the strength of popular votes. However, its policies during its first term were somewhat radical, especially its land reforms, which led to serious conflicts with local landlords and ultimately the central government stripped the party of power.

However, despite being deprived of the power to govern, the CPI still has a strong popular support base in Kerala.

When Nehru was cracking down on the opposition, Kerala was also the place where the conflict was most serious.

The Congress Party and the landlords here had intense conflicts with the Communist Party of India (CPI) during the land reform movement. They used the military and police to arrest and execute many disapproving CPI members. However, the CPI had been deeply rooted in rural Kerala for over a decade.

When they were in power a few years ago, they implemented land reform.

So the support is very strong. Many farmers support the CPI.

Just look at Chinese history. After April 12,

Uprisings broke out across the country. Apart from the direct military uprisings in major cities like Nanchang and Guangzhou, the truly large-scale uprisings involving peasants were led by Hunan and Hubei.

The Autumn Harvest Uprising, the Southern Hunan Uprising, the Pingjiang Uprising, and the Huangma Uprising all had large numbers of peasants participating, precisely because the peasant movements in Hunan and Hubei, the two lakes regions, were the most successful.
