may 4th movement

Birth of May 4: New cultural movement and its influence on early rhetoricism of communism "As long as there is a stone his fire will not die". In December 1935, May 4, 1919, over 3000 Beijing intellectuals gathered at Tiananmen Square to protest the results of the "Paris Peace Treaty". The protesters objected to the Chinese government's decision that the Chinese government would accept the postwar world. Next month, students and workers from all over China marched and strike, boycotted Japanese and Western products. As a result, the Chinese government has succumbed to their demands.

The beginning of Lu Xun's creative career was consistent with the beginning of the movement of May 4th This is mainly to modernize China by introducing and adapting western ideas, literary theory and medical practice It is a social and political movement made up of young intellectuals who decided. Through his writing, this is an extreme criticism of Chinese tradition and strongly supports modernization Lu Xun has become one of the leaders of this movement. His first short story, The Madman's Diary, was published in 1918 and skillfully used the so-called "clumsy and hard-to-read classical" serious "writer's spoken words, so he called a big topic in Chinese literary circles It is. . That means writing at that time. This story has also been transformed by a very important viewpoint of dependence on Chinese tradition. Lu Xun is comparing metaphor and cannibalism.

The movement on May 4, 1919 clearly expressed reform, unity, and desire of highly educated Chinese for China without foreign privileges. This student-led campaign protested China's unfair treatment of the postwar peace treaty, Japan took over the German concessions in Shandong province and expanded its control over Manchuria. The movement on May 4 also required a radical and democratic requirement to attack foreign forces' privileges and change social and political systems. Students, particularly encouraged by a very enthusiastic professor from Peking University, joined the ranks of businessmen and workers. Therefore, the possibility of mobilizing the national movement is very high.

About the 70th anniversary of May 4th, on May 4, about 200,000 students were in Tiananmen Square. They read the Declaration on 4th May and asked for dialogue with the government. Also, we plan to resume class on May 5. As mentioned above, Zhao Ziyang publicly acknowledged that the student's request was reasonable on May 4 and that all issues should be settled peacefully. Regardless of whether Zhao's statement is decisive or not, Chinese journalists have now joined the ranks of students. About 500 journalists and editors raised a banner, arguing that the media must convey the truth. In addition, the People's Daily reporters raised a banner editorial blaming the demonstration as a destructive attack on the faction, "We refused the editorial on April 24" and sent warm applause. In this way, journalists and editors have proved communism for the first time in China for 40 years.
