The May 4th Movement, which took place in 19 19, is regarded as the ideological source of many important events in China's modern history. Its new democratic revolution
The direct cause of [1] is the international conference on postwar issues held in Paris from June 28th to June 28th after the First World War. Twenty-seven countries including Britain, France, the United States, Japan and Italy participated, while the Soviet Union and Russia did not. Nominally, this meeting is to draft a peace treaty with Germany and establish post-war world peace. In fact, imperialism slaughtered the defeated country and redefined its sphere of influence. China was one of the victors, and the delegation was composed of officials from Beijing and Guangzhou, including Foreign Minister of Beijing, Ambassador to Britain, Ambassador to Belgium and Wang of Guangzhou. At the meeting, the representative of China proposed to cancel the privileges of the great powers in China, cancel the "Twenty-one" unequal treaty between China and Japan, and return the rights occupied by Germany in Shandong during World War II. However, the meeting was manipulated by Britain, the United States, France and other countries, ignoring China's reasonable demands and only bringing the Shandong issue into the meeting discussion. The Peace Conference finally signed a peace treaty with Germany, namely the Treaty of Versailles. Its main content is how the victorious imperialist countries divide up Germany's overseas colonies. Articles 156, 157 and 158 of the Covenant stipulate that all the rights and interests occupied by Germany in Shandong should be "ceded to Japan", which met with resolute opposition from the people of China. Strong patriotism led to this protest movement initiated by students and then developed to all levels of the country. At the same time, it triggered a variety of new thoughts into China, the most striking of which was the spread of Marxism in China. 192 1 year, Mao Zedong and others 12 people held the first national congress on behalf of local * * * production groups, and the China * * * production party was born. China * * * Production Party experienced the Northern Expedition (1924- 1927), the Agrarian Revolutionary War (1927- 1937) and War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression (1937) in the process of leading the people to carry out the new-democratic revolution. During the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, China's * * * production party cooperated with the Kuomintang to fight against the invaders and won the victory in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression. However, in 1945, the Kuomintang launched a civil war. After three years of the war of liberation, the China * * * Production Party finally overthrew the Kuomintang government in 1949.
Historical correlation
international environment
The October Revolution in Russia changed the direction of the whole world history, divided the whole world historical era, and the world entered the era of imperialism and proletarian revolution. This gave the China Revolution a new international environment. This is the era condition of transformation.
economic conditions
The development of Chinese national capitalist industry and commerce. 1914-18 During World War I, European countries needed to import raw materials and agricultural products from China, and the industrial and commercial development of China's national capitalism entered a "golden age" because European and American imperialist countries were too busy fighting on their own.
Political situation
The growth of the working class and the development of the labor movement in China. With the development of China's national capitalist industry and commerce and the increase of foreign-funded enterprises after the European War, the working class in China has also grown. By the end of the May 4th Movement, the working class in China had entered the political arena with an independent attitude and became the main force of the movement. The growth of the working class began to form a powerful and most revolutionary new social force.

Edit the guiding ideology of this paragraph
The guiding ideology of the new democratic revolution is Marxism. The theory of new democracy scientifically answered the question of the nature of China Revolution and developed Marxism with original content and distinctive China characteristics. The theory of new-democratic revolution broke through the two revolutionary modes of bourgeois-democratic revolution or socialist revolution in modern world history, created the third revolution, and solved the new task of the proletariat leading the bourgeois-democratic revolution and realizing national independence and people's liberation in the backward countries of semi-colonial and semi-feudal society. The new-democratic social theory's idea that China's revolution is divided into two steps, with the new-democratic society and country as the intermediate station to realize the transformation to socialism, solves the difficult problem of how to build a new country at the minimum cost after economically backward countries seize power, and creates conditions for the peaceful transformation from new democracy to socialism, and develops the Marxist theory of continuous revolution and revolutionary transformation. This fundamentally solved the problem of how to carry out the production movement in semi-colonial and semi-feudal society and how to realize the socialist road in China, built a bridge from semi-colonial and semi-feudal society to socialist society, and opened the channel from semi-colonial and semi-feudal society to socialist society.

Three magic weapons for the victory of China's new democratic revolution: 1. United front 2. Armed struggle 3. Party building.
Historical significance
Establish people's democratic political power
First of all, the victory of China's new-democratic revolution ended the rule of imperialism, feudalism and bureaucratic capitalism in China and established a new China under the people's democratic dictatorship. For thousands of years, the history of China has been dominated by a few exploiters. Over the past century, western capitalist powers have dragged China into the abyss of semi-colonial and semi-feudal society step by step with their strong ships and guns. Although the Revolution of 1911 overthrew China's feudal autocracy which lasted for more than two thousand years, it did not change the social nature of China's semi-colonial and semi-feudal society. China people struggled for freedom, democracy, independence and unity for a whole century, and finally won the great victory of China's democratic revolution under the leadership of China's * * * production party. Since then, the working people have become the masters of the new China. This is a great turning point in the history of China and marks a new period in China society.
International influence
Secondly, the victory of China's new-democratic revolution has also had a great impact on the development of world history. The victory of China Revolution is the most important event in the history of international proletarian movement after the victory of October Revolution. It broke through the eastern front of imperialism and dealt a fatal blow to the imperialist colonial system, thus greatly changing the balance of world political power. China has changed from the rear base of imperialist rule to the outpost of anti-imperialist struggle, which has greatly enhanced the world's anti-imperialist and anti-colonial power. The victory of the China Revolution greatly inspired the people of many countries like China who were exploited and oppressed by imperialism and colonialism, and strengthened their confidence and determination in their struggle. It has also had a profound and far-reaching impact on the development of the international situation and the revolutionary struggle of the people of the world.
Overthrow three mountains
Finally, the victory of China Revolution is the victory of Marxism-Leninism and Mao Zedong Thought. Since the Opium War, countless people with lofty ideals have struggled for the country's independence and prosperity, but failed to achieve revolutionary success. Only in the process of the new-democratic revolution, under the leadership of the Chinese Production Party and the correct guidance of Mao Zedong Thought, the people of China combined the universal truth of Marxism–Leninism with the China Revolution, and successfully overthrew the rule of the three great mountains in old China. Thanks to the victory of China's new-democratic revolution, China's * * * Production Party is recognized as the leading core of the people of all ethnic groups in China, China's * * * Production Party's first generation leading collective Comrade Mao Zedong is recognized as the great leader of China's * * * Production Party and China's people of all ethnic groups, and Mao Zedong Thought is recognized as the guiding ideology of China's * * * Production Party. These basic conclusions formed on the basis of summing up the positive and negative experiences and lessons of the China Revolution have become great spiritual wealth for the people of China.
Basic experience in editing this paragraph
Right direction
First of all, China's * * * production party was able to lead the China revolution to victory because she adhered to the correct direction of combining the universal truth of Marxism-Leninism with the concrete practice of the China revolution. This is one of the most basic experiences of the Party. During the nearly 80 years from the Opium War to the May 4th Movement, the people's struggle against China never stopped. However, the people of China do not have any ideological weapons to resist imperialism. After the October Revolution, Marxism began to spread widely in China, and the people of China had a new ideological weapon. Marxism is the scientific world outlook and social revolutionary theory of the proletariat. Its vitality lies in its close combination with social practice and its ability to open up the way for people to know the truth in practice. Mao Zedong and his comrades-in-arms, with a scientific attitude of seeking truth from facts, adopted the working method of the mass line from the masses to the masses, independently thought about and solved the China issue, combined the universal truth of Marxism with the revolutionary practice of China's long-term revolutionary struggle, and successfully made it a national style and form that China people understood, accepted and loved. Mao Zedong Thought is the product of combining the universal truth of Marxism with the reality of China revolution, the application and development of Marxism–Leninism in China, the correct theoretical principle and experience summary of China revolution proved by practice, and the crystallization of the Communist Party of China (CPC)'s collective wisdom. The formation and development of Mao Zedong Thought made Marxism–Leninism deeply rooted in China, and was transformed into a great material force to promote the revolutionary changes in China society by the Chinese Production Party and the people of China. It can be said that without the correct guidance of Mao Zedong Thought, there would be no victory of the China Revolution.
Correct leadership
Secondly, without the leadership of the China * * * production party, there would be no new China. China people's anti-imperialist and anti-feudal old democratic revolution failed because no advanced political party, like China Productivity Party, as the vanguard of the working class in China, has always represented the development requirements of China's advanced social productive forces, the orientation of China's advanced culture and the strong leadership of the overwhelming majority of the people in China in all historical periods of revolution, construction and reform. In the new-democratic revolution, the China * * * Production Party pointed out the goal for the people of China, found the road to victory in the practice of long-term struggle, and United and condensed the people of China, who were regarded as "fragmented", into a great force that no reactionary forces could defeat. Under the leadership of the * * * Production Party of China, the revolutionary struggle of the people of China has experienced many setbacks and detours, but it has finally won the great victory of the China revolution. "Without the * * * production party, there would be no new China", which is a scientific conclusion drawn by the people of China according to the historical experience of the modern China revolution and a great truth confirmed by their own personal experience.
A broad United front
Third, the establishment of the broadest revolutionary united front is the foundation of China's revolutionary victory. The revolutionary object of China's new-democratic revolution is extremely cruel and vicious. At the same time, the proletariat and the landlord and big bourgeoisie account for only a few of the population, and the vast majority are farmers, urban petty bourgeoisie and other middle classes. Therefore, if the proletariat wants to win the revolution, it must strive for and unite with the broad middle class. In the process of the new-democratic revolution, the * * * Production Party of China always believed in this point, and adhered to the principle of taking the proletariat as the leader and the alliance of workers and peasants as the basis in the revolutionary United front, thus under the banner of anti-imperialism and anti-feudalism, the people of all ethnic groups and people of all walks of life in the country were closely United around them, went through hardships and overcame many difficulties and obstacles, and finally overthrew the three mountains that were pressing on the people's heads and won the new-democratic revolution in China. This is another important experience of China's revolutionary victory.
Historical inevitability
Finally, the implementation of the people's democratic dictatorship system in China is the historical necessity of the development of China's revolution. In the process of China's democratic revolution, I tried bourgeois democracy and bourgeois * * * and China's plan, but they all failed in the end. Facts have proved that China's new-democratic revolution was successful because people's democracy replaced bourgeois democracy and the People's Republic replaced bourgeois republic. As Mao Zedong pointed out in his On People's Democratic Dictatorship, when summing up the experience of China's * * production party in leading the revolutionary struggle for 28 years: "To sum up our experience, focus on one point, that is, the working class (in the future," we can rely on the people's democratic dictatorship as a weapon to unite all people except the reactionaries and walk steadily to our destination) ". This is a profound summary of the revolutionary struggle experience of China's * * * production party for nearly a hundred years.
