习近平等属蛇的9个政治局常委，中国春运机票车票现“骨折价”，除夕夜排队10小时等头香
大家好，蛇年给大家总结一下，属蛇的9个政治局常委。当然了，习包子属蛇，其他8个政治局常委都是谁呢？他们都是哪个派系的？他们对现在中国政局的影响都有哪些呢？中国春运机票车票现“骨折价” 百姓兜里真没钱了！
中国春运正处运输高峰，但今年机票和车票价格却呈现“反常逆袭”现象，大年初一前后皆出现低至一折的促销票，与往年春节期间票价普遍上扬形成鲜明对比。经济学者分析，春运票价下跌主要受三大因素影响：就业不振导致春运距离和地域重新分配，出行方式多元化造成空陆运竞争和离峰促销策略填补客流不足。而这一现象的背后，进一步暴露了中国经济下滑的现实，以及民众消费能力的显著下降。
我就是找个配图，结果搜索出来。国庆机票价格再次大跳水，不知道是哪一年国庆。车厘子价格跳水，频上热搜，这是半个月前的新闻。看样子中国普通民众收入下降是不争的事实。
中国“春运机票大跳水”、“机票降价超70%”、“春运出现几块钱车票”、“低至几块钱骨折价票”等话题，在春运期间不断跃上媒体版面，被称为“地表最大规模人口移动”的春运运力需求暴增，价格却反跌的趋势受到关注。
记者在携程旅行平台进行实测，购买1月29日一周内上海始发至青岛、沈阳、武汉、大连等地，经济舱机票票价低至人民币200元，降幅达一折。
中国境内春节机票降价榜单显示，1月26日-29日飞往海口、三亚的机票降幅至少50%，如1月28日上海至三亚，月均价下降54%，降价逾500元。根据相关数据，2025年春运中国境内航线经济舱截至1月23日平均税前票价约人民币882元，相较2024年925元，同比下降4.6%。市场热度和实际需求情况不如预期，航司会将航班剩余空座降价出售，票价会相应调低。
同样情况也出现在铁路需求，1月24日报道，火车票堪比公交价格的列车路线不只一条，从开原到沈阳的火车票最低2.5元，折扣力度1.6折。
社媒微博也涌现相关讨论，江西财经博主发文，“一般节前航空公司都会按照惯例大幅增加运力，但没想到的是虽然运力增大了，但发现乘飞机的人并没有大幅增加，导致运力过剩机票开始跳水”。
航空业降价体现民众“兜里没钱”
执飞美洲航线的中国机长的林先生表示，“春运运力需求量暴增”是伪命题，如果交通票券真的供不应求必定不会降价，降价正是为了从有限市场中去抢占份额。
林先生说：“票价降的主要原因就是实际上需求是萎缩，把价格降下来才能去抢市场，或者说是不被高铁拿走更多的份额，人的兜里没有那么多钱的话，肯定更不愿意坐飞机，降价的话可能还能挖掘出来一些需求。”
林先生认为，航空业是整体经济的牵引者，航空业往往“提早半步”体现出经济问题，如果经济活动畅旺或“兜里有钱”，商务旅行和旅游探亲都会活络。“在大家手里头钱不多，或经济活动下降时，民航业立马就体现出问题，”他说，“整体价格趋于便宜是由市场来决定，因为航司市场部决定不了老百姓兜里有没有多少钱。”
林先生形容现在出行模式“一切都是怎么省钱怎么来”，对中国航空业而言，国内市场主要竞争者是铁路，再加上近年电动车发展快速，越来越多人买车自驾，也分割了跨省出行的市场。
位于台湾桃园的龙华科大助理教授指出，中国春运出现铁路和航空票供过于求而大幅降价，主因是是近年来中国经济严重下滑所引发的中国务工人口迁移模式的改变。由于工厂订单锐减、建筑业开发减少，跨省务工人口大幅下降，部分农民工甚至提前返乡，削弱了传统的春运客流需求。
在未来几年，如果中国经济持续低迷、消费力无法恢复，春运期间的 “跳水票价”可能成为新常态，而这一趋势的延续，也将成为衡量中国经济复苏的重要信号之一。
今年是蛇年，我们看一下属蛇的9位政治局常委。根据不完全统计，由毛泽东，张春桥，胡启立，他们是一个派系的。
陈云，高岗，习近平，宋平，吴邦国他们是陈云派系的。丁关根应该是邓小平派系的。
这里可能只有高岗不是政治局常委。但是高岗如果不是因为政治斗争死了。
他肯定也是政治局常委。这9个人，除了胡启立，好像名声都不太好。邓小平派系里面的丁关根也是邓小平派系里面的保守派。
所以按照路线去判断派系，不一定十分准确，路线是可以更改的。胡启立我为什么把他划到毛泽东派系呢。按照我的派系划分标准呢。首先，余秋里是石油帮是毛泽东的人，这个很清晰。
毛泽东就喜欢玩掺沙子。余秋里就是毛泽东向周恩来国务院系统，掺沙子。
搞一个小计委，小计划委员会。计划委员会，现在叫做发改委。发改委号称就是小国务院。发改委顶半个国务院，计划委员会顶半个国务院。毛泽东派余秋里去搞小计委就是向周恩来夺权。
我把叶剑英和余秋里化成石油帮的时候，划成毛泽东温和派的时候，还不知道叶剑英和余秋里是亲家的关系。叶剑英和提拔江泽民的余秋里是亲家。叶剑英的三女儿是叶文珊，嫁给了余秋里的儿子余方方。知道叶剑英和余秋里是亲家的关系，那就更确定他们是同一个派系了。
胡耀邦的权力来自于华国锋，这个也很明显，华国锋把党主席交给了胡耀邦，把军委主席交给了邓小平，然后军委副主席是叶剑英，叶剑英给胡耀邦保驾护航。邓小平和陈云逼宫华国锋的时候，叶剑英以退为进，说自己也退休，那最后华国锋退休了吗？没有啊。胡耀邦被逼宫的时候，曾经说过，如果叶剑英没死，可能情况就不一样。这都很明显了。
但是我觉得邓小平逼宫胡耀邦是有计划有预谋的。赵紫阳在一九八四年五月二十六日给邓小平专门写过一封信，同时抄送陈云，这封信实际就是打响了推倒胡耀邦的第一枪，也是打向胡耀邦背后的最为致命的一枪。
这是中共一个很奇葩的权力结构，1984年5月，名义上的政治局常委排名第一是胡耀邦，第二是叶剑英
但实际上，排名第4的政治局常委，给排名第3的邓小平和排名第6个陈云写信。当时还有一个中顾委，中顾委主任是邓小平，中顾委第一副主任是薄一波。
大家想，赵紫阳为什么给邓小平写信抄送陈云，为什么不抄送李先念和薄一波？说明赵紫阳的党内地位高于李先念和薄一波。赵紫阳只会给上级写信，当然了，胡耀邦名义上也是赵紫阳的上级，但是赵紫阳却跳过了胡耀邦。当时叶剑英还没退休还没有死，即便这样邓小平和陈云也在酝酿搞倒胡耀邦。等到叶剑英一死，邓小平和陈云就下手了。李先念也挺奇葩的，李先念排名虽然在陈云前面，但是李先念是陈云的马仔。
李先念为什么是陈云马仔呢，李先念跟这9个属蛇的政治局常委，哪个人有关系呢？除了陈云。李先念和宋平有关系，我就给大家找这些，简单的，一看就明白的铁证啊。李先念担任湖北第一书记的时候，湖北第二书记叫做刘建勋。有两个人叫做刘建勋，重名，现在兰州市长也叫做刘建勋，好像是习近平派系的。两个刘建勋都是习近平陈云派系的。
刘建勋的老婆叫做陈舜英，陈舜英的妹妹陈舜瑶的老公是宋平
湖北第二书记刘建勋的老婆叫做陈舜英，陈舜英的妹妹陈舜瑶的老公是宋平。就是这个属蛇的政治局常委宋平，所以李先念和宋平的关系，也不一般。他们都是陈云的马仔。
邓小平打倒胡耀邦是处心积虑的，还有一个说法就是。华国锋打到四人帮的时候，华国锋是联合李先念，就是联合陈云。但是呢华国锋派去，占领电视台的人是耿飙，耿飙的秘书是习近平。华国锋派去，占领人民日报的人是刘华清，刘华清后来是邓小平派去带枪进常委，保证江泽民交班给胡锦涛的人。
所以华国锋一开始就是空架子。华国锋打倒四人帮的时候，邓小平根本就没有复出，准确的身份就是一介平民，但是和袁世凯差不多。当时邓小平虽然暂时没有复出。但是邓小平军队有人。就和当年袁世凯下野一样，不管有没有头衔，都是实际上掌握军权的人。
把胡耀邦划到了毛泽东的温和派里面，毛泽东作为共匪的开创者。虽然他的激进派四人帮被剿灭。但是毛泽东的政治势力完全被清除，也不合理啊。他的温和派的继承者就是胡耀邦和江泽民。现在是李强。胡启立和胡耀邦的关系比较密切，所以把胡启立划成毛泽东温和派化成了江泽民派系。胡启立中办主任就是胡耀邦的大秘啊，六四之后，胡启立复出。担任机械电子工业部的副部长，前身就是第一机械工业部。就是江泽民的老巢。江泽民是第一机械工业部出来的。
大家想胡启立好歹之前是一个政治局常委，他既然能复出，去哪个国家部委不一样啊，为什么偏偏去机械电子工业部呢。难道是巧合吗？当然了胡启立后来是政协副主席，他的身份一直按照政协副主席走的，不是按照曾经的政治局常委的待遇。胡启立号称中国的戈尔巴乔夫，胡启立在今天的中国政坛上，有一个徒子徒孙，当然可能不止一个，我暂时只发现一个。胡启立曾经是宁夏固原地委副书记，相当于今天的地级市市委副书记。固原是西海固，是中国最穷的地方，那个地方不太可能有两个派系，甚至三个派系。太穷了。现在体育总局副局长李静，就是曾经号称中国的戈尔巴乔夫胡启立的徒子徒孙。
宋平没有提拔胡锦涛，胡锦涛提拔正局级时，宋平不在甘肃
所以9个属蛇的政治局常委里面只有胡启立有一点改革派的名声。宋平是出了名的保守派，宋平没有提拔胡锦涛，胡锦涛提拔正局级的时候，宋平压根就不在甘肃。而且也没有升任政治局常委。只是国家计划委员会的一个正部级的副主任。宋平后来的确把手伸到了甘肃，干涉过甘肃官场的官员提拔的。但那是宋平升任政治局常委之后的事情了。胡锦涛是冯纪新提拔的后来推荐给邓小平，这是中组部副部长，李锐说的，而且和其他的证据都对的上。
吴邦国也是陈云的马仔，极左派，吴邦国说的五不搞。习近平也是陈云的马仔，极左派。当然了光从路线上划分派系，不准确。陈云号称中国的计划经济之父，但是中国所谓的市场经济是陈云本人背书的。
1992年6月9日，江泽民在党校讲话提出社会主义市场经济体制。“六九讲话”之后，江泽民专程拜访了邓小平、陈云等老同志。党内高层意见达成统一。当然了，到底是邓小平拿枪让陈云同意，还是陈云自己主动同意的，就不知道。但是中国的计划经济之父，陈云，背书的中国所谓的市场经济。市场经济写入了中共党纲，已经不能再作为划分派系的标准了。公开反对市场经济，就等于公开反党。
当然了，这些极左派，尤其是习近平，还是想开倒车。这是肯定的。因为习近平就是陈云派系的。四人帮倒台之后，陈云就是极左派的老大。总之，属蛇的9个政治局常委，只有胡启立有改革派的名声，其他人都是出了名的极左派。
蛇年春节，中国多地民众从除夕深夜开始排队烧头香，长达10小时。另据媒体报道，中国“寺庙经济”已成为一种新的现象，尤以年轻人最为醒目。为什么中国的年轻人开始选择“上香”？这个现象背后有什么深层次的心理原因？
有专家认为，越来越多年轻人“求佛”背后归因于中国社会的变化。中国已成为一个“绩效社会”，每个人都在内心深处的“绩效”无形支配，并自我压榨，“但如果过度追求效率，带来的结果就是人很难停下来”。他举例说：“这两年春节快递都不停了，中国人变成了一个自己往自己身上抽鞭子的状态。但是大家都忽略了人的承受能力是有限的，我们的身心承受不了这种快速不断运作的状态。”
好的，谢谢大家。

Xi Jinping and other 9 members of the Politburo Standing Committee who are born in the Year of the Snake, China’s Spring Festival air tickets and train tickets are now “discounted”, and people line up for 10 hours on New Year’s Eve to wait for the first incense
Hello everyone, in the Year of the Snake, let me summarize for you the 9 members of the Politburo Standing Committee who are born in the Year of the Snake. Of course, Xi Jinping is born in the Year of the Snake, who are the other 8 members of the Politburo Standing Committee? Which faction are they from? What influence do they have on the current political situation in China? China’s Spring Festival air tickets and train tickets are now “discounted”, and people really have no money in their pockets!
China’s Spring Festival is at its peak, but this year’s air and train ticket prices have shown an “abnormal counterattack” phenomenon. There are promotional tickets as low as 10% off around the first day of the Lunar New Year, which is in sharp contrast to the general rise in ticket prices during the Spring Festival in previous years. Economists analyzed that the decline in Spring Festival ticket prices is mainly affected by three factors: sluggish employment leads to the redistribution of distance and region during the Spring Festival, and the diversification of travel modes leads to competition between air and land transportation and off-peak promotion strategies to fill the lack of passenger flow. Behind this phenomenon, the reality of China’s economic downturn and the significant decline in people’s consumption capacity are further exposed.
I was just looking for a picture, and the result came out when I searched. National Day air ticket prices plunged again, I don’t know which National Day it was. Cherry prices plunged, frequently on the hot search, this was news half a month ago. It seems that the decline in income of ordinary Chinese people is an indisputable fact.
Topics such as “Spring Festival air ticket plunge”, “air ticket price reduction of more than 70%”, “Spring Festival tickets cost a few yuan”, and “tickets as low as a few yuan” have been constantly appearing in the media during the Spring Festival. The demand for transportation capacity during the Spring Festival, which is called “the largest population movement on the surface of the earth”, has skyrocketed, but the trend of falling prices has attracted attention.
The reporter conducted actual tests on the Ctrip travel platform and purchased economy class air tickets from Shanghai to Qingdao, Shenyang, Wuhan, Dalian and other places within a week from January 29, with the price as low as RMB 200, a 10% reduction.
The list of price reductions for domestic Spring Festival air tickets in China shows that the price of air tickets to Haikou and Sanya from January 26 to 29 has dropped by at least 50%. For example, the monthly average price of flights from Shanghai to Sanya on January 28 has dropped by 54%, a price reduction of more than 500 yuan. According to relevant data, the average pre-tax ticket price for economy class on domestic routes in China during the 2025 Spring Festival is about RMB 882 as of January 23, a year-on-year decrease of 4.6% compared with RMB 925 in 2024. The market heat and actual demand are not as expected. Airlines will sell the remaining empty seats on flights at a reduced price, and the ticket price will be lowered accordingly.
The same situation also occurs in railway demand. According to a report on January 24, there is more than one train route with train tickets comparable to bus prices. The lowest train ticket from Kaiyuan to Shenyang is 2.5 yuan, a discount of 16%.
Related discussions also emerged on social media Weibo. A Jiangxi finance blogger wrote, “Generally, airlines will increase capacity significantly before the holidays as usual, but what we didn’t expect was that although the capacity increased, it was found that the number of people flying did not increase significantly, resulting in excess capacity and air tickets starting to plummet.”
Price cuts in the aviation industry reflect that people “have no money in their pockets”
Mr. Lin, a Chinese captain flying on American routes, said that “the demand for capacity during the Spring Festival travel rush has skyrocketed” is a false proposition. If the transportation tickets are really in short supply, they will definitely not be reduced in price. The price reduction is precisely to grab market share from the limited market.
Mr. Lin said: “The main reason for the reduction in ticket prices is that the demand is actually shrinking. Only by lowering the price can we grab the market, or in other words, we can avoid being taken away by high-speed rail. If people don’t have so much money in their pockets, they will definitely be more reluctant to take a plane. If the price is reduced, some demand may be tapped.”
Mr. Lin believes that the aviation industry is the driver of the overall economy. The aviation industry often “takes a step ahead” to reflect economic problems. If economic activities are booming or “there is money in the pocket”, business travel and tourism and family visits will be active. “When people don’t have much money or economic activity declines, the civil aviation industry will immediately show problems,” he said. “The overall price trend is determined by the market, because the airline marketing department cannot determine how much money people have in their pockets.”
Mr. Lin described the current travel mode as “everything is done to save money”. For China’s aviation industry, the main competitor in the domestic market is the railway. In addition, the rapid development of electric vehicles in recent years has led to more and more people buying cars and driving themselves, which has also divided the market for inter-provincial travel.
An assistant professor at Longhua University of Science and Technology in Taoyuan, Taiwan, pointed out that the oversupply of railway and air tickets in China’s Spring Festival travel and the sharp price cuts are mainly due to the change in the migration pattern of China’s migrant workers caused by the severe economic downturn in recent years. Due to the sharp drop in factory orders and the reduction in construction industry development, the number of migrant workers across provinces has dropped significantly, and some migrant workers have even returned home early, weakening the traditional Spring Festival passenger flow demand.
In the next few years, if China’s economy continues to be sluggish and consumption power cannot be restored, the “diving ticket prices” during the Spring Festival travel may become the new normal, and the continuation of this trend will also become one of the important signals for measuring China’s economic recovery.
This year is the Year of the Snake. Let’s take a look at the nine members of the Politburo Standing Committee who are born in the Year of the Snake. According to incomplete statistics, Mao Zedong, Zhang Chunqiao, and Hu Qili are from the same faction.
Chen Yun, Gao Gang, Xi Jinping, Song Ping, and Wu Bangguo are from Chen Yun’s faction. Ding Guangen should be from Deng Xiaoping’s faction.
Gao Gang may be the only one who is not a member of the Politburo Standing Committee. But if Gao Gang had not died because of political struggles.
He would definitely be a member of the Politburo Standing Committee. Except for Hu Qili, these nine people seem to have a bad reputation. Ding Guangen in Deng Xiaoping’s faction is also a conservative in Deng Xiaoping’s faction.
So judging factions by the line may not be very accurate, and the line can be changed. Why do I classify Hu Qili into Mao Zedong’s faction? According to my faction classification criteria. First of all, Yu Qiuli is a member of the oil gang and Mao Zedong’s people, this is very clear.
Mao Zedong likes to play with sand. Yu Qiuli is Mao Zedong’s sand to Zhou Enlai’s State Council system.
Set up a small Planning Commission, a small Planning Committee. The Planning Committee is now called the Development and Reform Commission. The Development and Reform Commission is known as the small State Council. The Development and Reform Commission is half of the State Council, and the Planning Commission is half of the State Council. Mao Zedong sent Yu Qiuli to set up the small Planning Commission to seize power from Zhou Enlai.
When I turned Ye Jianying and Yu Qiuli into the oil gang and classified them as Mao Zedong’s moderate faction, I didn’t know that Ye Jianying and Yu Qiuli were in-laws. Ye Jianying and Yu Qiuli, who promoted Jiang Zemin, are in-laws. Ye Jianying’s third daughter is Ye Wenshan, who married Yu Qiuli’s son Yu Fangfang. Knowing that Ye Jianying and Yu Qiuli are in-laws, it is even more certain that they are in the same faction.
Hu Yaobang’s power came from Hua Guofeng, which is also very obvious. Hua Guofeng handed over the chairmanship of the party to Hu Yaobang and the chairmanship of the Military Commission to Deng Xiaoping. Then the vice chairman of the Military Commission was Ye Jianying, and Ye Jianying escorted Hu Yaobang. When Deng Xiaoping and Chen Yun forced Hua Guofeng to abdicate, Ye Jianying retreated and said that he would retire. Did Hua Guofeng retire in the end? No. When Hu Yaobang was forced to abdicate, he once said that if Ye Jianying had not died, the situation might be different. This is very obvious.
But I think Deng Xiaoping forced Hu Yaobang to abdicate with a plan and premeditated. Zhao Ziyang wrote a letter to Deng Xiaoping on May 26, 1984, and copied Chen Yun at the same time. This letter was actually the first shot to overthrow Hu Yaobang, and it was also the most fatal shot to Hu Yaobang’s back.
This is a very strange power structure of the Communist Party of China. In May 1984, the nominal first member of the Politburo Standing Committee was Hu Yaobang, and the second was Ye Jianying.
In fact, the fourth-ranked Politburo Standing Committee member wrote letters to Deng Xiaoping, who was ranked third, and Chen Yun, who was ranked sixth. At that time, there was also a Central Advisory Commission, the director of which was Deng Xiaoping, and the first deputy director of which was Bo Yibo.
Think about it, why did Zhao Ziyang copy Chen Yun when he wrote to Deng Xiaoping, but not Li Xiannian and Bo Yibo? This shows that Zhao Ziyang’s position in the party was higher than Li Xiannian and Bo Yibo. Zhao Ziyang only wrote to his superiors. Of course, Hu Yaobang was nominally Zhao Ziyang’s superior, but Zhao Ziyang skipped Hu Yaobang. At that time, Ye Jianying had not retired or died, but Deng Xiaoping and Chen Yun were still planning to overthrow Hu Yaobang. As soon as Ye Jianying died, Deng Xiaoping and Chen Yun took action. Li Xiannian was also quite strange. Although Li Xiannian ranked ahead of Chen Yun, Li Xiannian was Chen Yun’s lackey.
Why was Li Xiannian Chen Yun’s lackey? Which of the nine members of the Politburo Standing Committee who were born in the Year of the Snake did Li Xiannian have a relationship with? Except Chen Yun. Li Xiannian had a relationship with Song Ping. I will find these simple, ironclad evidences for you to understand at a glance. When Li Xiannian was the first secretary of Hubei, the second secretary of Hubei was Liu Jianxun. There are two people named Liu Jianxun, who have the same name. The current mayor of Lanzhou is also named Liu Jianxun, and it seems that they are from the Xi Jinping faction. Both Liu Jianxun are from the Xi Jinping Chen Yun faction.
Liu Jianxun’s wife is called Chen Shunying, and Chen Shunying’s sister Chen Shunyao’s husband is Song Ping
Hubei’s second secretary Liu Jianxun’s wife is called Chen Shunying, and Chen Shunying’s sister Chen Shunyao’s husband is Song Ping. It is Song Ping, a member of the Politburo Standing Committee who is born in the Year of the Snake, so the relationship between Li Xiannian and Song Ping is not ordinary. They are all Chen Yun’s lackeys.
Deng Xiaoping was deliberate in overthrowing Hu Yaobang. There is another saying that when Hua Guofeng attacked the Gang of Four, Hua Guofeng joined forces with Li Xiannian, that is, Chen Yun. But the person Hua Guofeng sent to occupy the TV station was Geng Biao, and Geng Biao’s secretary was Xi Jinping. The person Hua Guofeng sent to occupy the People’s Daily was Liu Huaqing, who was later sent by Deng Xiaoping to bring a gun into the Standing Committee to ensure that Jiang Zemin handed over power to Hu Jintao.
So Hua Guofeng was just an empty shell from the beginning. When Hua Guofeng defeated the Gang of Four, Deng Xiaoping had not returned to power at all. His exact identity was that of a commoner, but he was similar to Yuan Shikai. Although Deng Xiaoping had not returned to power at that time, he had people in the army. Just like when Yuan Shikai stepped down, regardless of whether he had a title or not, he was actually the one who controlled the military power.
Hu Yaobang was classified as Mao Zedong’s moderate faction. Mao Zedong was the founder of the Communist bandits. Although his radical Gang of Four was wiped out, it was not reasonable that Mao Zedong’s political power was completely eliminated. His moderate successors were Hu Yaobang and Jiang Zemin. Now it is Li Qiang. Hu Qili and Hu Yaobang had a close relationship, so Hu Qili was classified as Mao Zedong’s moderate faction and turned into Jiang Zemin’s faction. Hu Qili, the director of the General Office of the CPC Central Committee, was Hu Yaobang’s chief secretary. After June 4th, Hu Qili returned to power. He served as the deputy minister of the Ministry of Machinery and Electronics Industry, formerly the First Ministry of Machinery Industry. It was Jiang Zemin’s old nest. Jiang Zemin came from the First Ministry of Machinery Industry.
Everyone thinks that Hu Qili was a member of the Politburo Standing Committee before. Since he can make a comeback, it doesn’t matter which state ministry he goes to. Why did he go to the Ministry of Machinery and Electronics Industry? Is it a coincidence? Of course, Hu Qili later became the vice chairman of the CPPCC. His identity has always been based on the vice chairman of the CPPCC, not the treatment of the former Politburo Standing Committee member. Hu Qili is known as China’s Gorbachev. Hu Qili has a disciple in today’s Chinese political arena. Of course, there may be more than one. I have only found one for the time being. Hu Qili was once the deputy secretary of the Guyuan Prefectural Committee of Ningxia, which is equivalent to the deputy secretary of the prefecture-level city committee today. Guyuan is Xihaigu, the poorest place in China. It is unlikely that there are two factions, or even three factions. It is too poor. Li Jing, the current deputy director of the General Administration of Sports, is the disciple of Hu Qili, who was once known as China’s Gorbachev.
Song Ping did not promote Hu Jintao. When Hu Jintao was promoted to the bureau level, Song Ping was not in Gansu.
So among the nine members of the Politburo Standing Committee who were born in the Year of the Snake, only Hu Qili had a reputation as a reformist. Song Ping was a well-known conservative. Song Ping did not promote Hu Jintao. When Hu Jintao was promoted to the bureau level, Song Ping was not in Gansu at all. And he was not promoted to the Politburo Standing Committee. He was just a deputy director of the State Planning Commission at the ministerial level. Song Ping did later reach out to Gansu and interfered with the promotion of officials in Gansu officialdom. But that was after Song Ping was promoted to the Politburo Standing Committee. Hu Jintao was promoted by Feng Jixin and later recommended to Deng Xiaoping. This was said by Li Rui, the deputy minister of the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee, and it matches other evidence.
Wu Bangguo was also Chen Yun’s henchman, an extreme leftist. Wu Bangguo said the five no’s. Xi Jinping is also Chen Yun’s henchman, an extreme leftist. Of course, it is not accurate to divide factions based on the line alone. Chen Yun is known as the father of China’s planned economy, but China’s so-called market economy was endorsed by Chen Yun himself.
On June 9, 1992, Jiang Zemin proposed the socialist market economic system in his speech at the Party School. After the “June 9 Speech”, Jiang Zemin made a special trip to visit Deng Xiaoping, Chen Yun and other old comrades. The high-level opinions of the party reached a consensus. Of course, it is not known whether Deng Xiaoping used a gun to make Chen Yun agree, or Chen Yun agreed on his own initiative. But Chen Yun, the father of China’s planned economy, endorsed China’s so-called market economy. The market economy is written into the CCP’s party constitution and can no longer be used as a criterion for dividing factions. Openly opposing the market economy is equivalent to openly opposing the party.
Of course, these extreme leftists, especially Xi Jinping, still want to reverse the situation. This is certain. Because Xi Jinping is from Chen Yun’s faction. After the fall of the Gang of Four, Chen Yun was the boss of the extreme left. In short, among the nine members of the Politburo Standing Committee who were born in the Year of the Snake, only Hu Qili has a reputation as a reformist, and the others are all well-known extreme leftists.
During the Spring Festival of the Year of the Snake, people in many parts of China lined up to burn the first incense from late at night on New Year’s Eve, which lasted for 10 hours. According to media reports, China’s “temple economy” has become a new phenomenon, especially among young people. Why do young people in China start to choose “burning incense”? What are the deep psychological reasons behind this phenomenon?
Some experts believe that the reason why more and more young people “pray to Buddha” is due to changes in Chinese society. China has become a “performance society” where everyone is invisiblely dominated by the “performance” deep in their hearts and squeezes themselves, “but if you pursue efficiency too much, the result is that it is difficult for people to stop.” He gave an example: “In the past two years, express delivery has not stopped during the Spring Festival, and Chinese people have become a state of whipping themselves. But everyone ignores that people’s tolerance is limited, and our body and mind cannot withstand this state of rapid and continuous operation.”
Okay, thank you everyone.
