CHP-067 Deng Xiaoping Part 5
This week’s episode looks at the exciting events that all went down in 1976. Deng Xiaoping is on the defensive thanks to his 1975 policies to revive the nation. But a concatenation of events will happen starting on January 8 and ending on October 6 that will both bring Deng back and rock China. But these events will set the country on a course that will lead China to become the economic and international powerhouse it has become in the 21st century.
Deng Xiaoping shown with Marshal Ye Jianying a few years after Deng's return in 1977.
HI, I HAVE LISTENED TO DENGXIAPING PART 5 NOW, AND JUST KNOW THAT HE WAS BORNED IN YEAR OF DRAGON; THANK YOU SO MUCH AS A WEASTERN — BUT YOU TAUGHT THE PEOPLE LIKE ME A LOT ABOUT OUR HISTORY! CHEERS
Great podcasts!
Thank you! I’m a Canadian living in Kaoshiung, Taiwan. I travel by train to Tainan daily so I listen to your podcast as I watch the Taiwan country side go by. Your series on Deng Xioping is really awesome.
I have read a lot on Chinese history in the past few years. Any chance you’ll do one on Charlie Soong? I’m reading Sterling Seagrave’s Biography of him. Really captivating stuff!
Good day sir!
