This harshly worded article did not cause a huge response in the government system and the Fuxing Association system.
In other words, the response has been great, but it is all in people's hearts, and not many people have spoken out about it.
To put it more intuitively, many people don’t know how to face this article.
Looking at the "double standard patient" described in this article, many people can't help but put themselves into it, and then find that they are that "double standard patient".
While shouting to build the Kingdom of Heaven on earth, at the same time, I find that inequality is hiding in a corner deep in my heart, ready to move.
When everything goes well, it's okay, and he looks great like a saint, but once he encounters something unsatisfactory, the idea of inequality that's ready to come out will directly dominate his thinking.
So, am I not a qualified revolutionary at all?
Such self-doubts are like earthquakes that have collapsed some people's increasingly solid thinking barriers.
Under such circumstances, how can we expect them to respond?
Directly and openly state that they are double standard patients?
Therefore, this article, which did not trigger a huge response, directly became the ultimate weapon to end the six-year Hongwu debate.
As soon as this article was published, both sides of the debate were immediately pushed to the ground and rubbed, making them blush and stop, not knowing how to continue the debate.
This article destroys the basis of the argument on both sides right from the bottom, tearing both sides out of the sky and making them face reality and give up their unrealistic fantasies.
Even if you can talk about interfering in politics in the harem, can you still have the audacity to say that you no longer have the shackles of the old era in your heart?
Su Yonglin controlled the entire situation with just this article.
Subsequently, Xin Qiji, Kong Maojie, Shen Ge and other high-level cadres of the Renaissance who had not yet spoken out wrote articles and published their own views on this controversy, basically maintaining the same position as Su Yonglin.
Among them, Xin Qiji's statement on this matter is very representative and can basically represent the attitude of the entire senior management.
[A dispute suddenly breaks out, a consensus is suddenly reached, they say that everyone is equal, but they sit in the unequal seats very honestly, they say that they want to destroy everything in the old society, but they don't even bother to interfere in the politics of the harem. The concepts are still there.
How ridiculous is it that such a group of people are brazenly claiming that they will build an ideal society in thirty years? To build an ideal society, we must first start with consistent words and deeds, start with supporting the work of the Ministry of Women, and start with admitting from the heart that women are human beings. If we fail to do this, we will never be able to build a successful ideal society! 】
This controversy began in February of the sixth year of Hongwu's reign and died down within a few months.
At the same time, a new round of rectification actions and ideological education strengthening actions were launched.
Su Yonglin successively issued documents through the Central Committee of the Renaissance, requiring the Renaissance organizations at all levels to strengthen internal learning and self-criticism, and to pick out all the remaining old thinking and feudal ideas in their hearts and take a closer look!
Am I a revolutionary, or just a cloak in disguise?
In addition, Su Yonglin also took the time to write an article called "The Road to Building an Ideal Society."
In the article, Su Yonglin spoke from the bottom of his heart about how he hoped to establish a successful ideal society earlier than everyone else. Everyone hoped for thirty years, and he wished he could succeed in ten or five years, but his reason told him clearly ,This is impossible.
An ideal society is a society without the worry of famine. At this point, we don’t know how many years the entire Ming Dynasty will have to work together and how much increase in grain output it will take to realize it.
If the most direct and basic conditions have not yet been met, how can we build an ideal society?
It is unacceptable to rush forward impetuously. It is unacceptable to ignore reality and forcefully achieve goals in order to achieve goals. Doing one's best while respecting the laws of nature is what a true revolutionary should do.
Also in this article, Su Yonglin proposed the concepts of five-year plans and ten-year plans.
He said that in the future, the country's development needs to formulate a scientific and rigorous framework in advance, and strive to achieve the set goals within the framework. We should not pursue big breakthroughs, but pursue the realization of the set goals.
As long as the set goal is achieved, it is a staged victory. Through staged victories one after another, use them as steps to reach the top step by step, and finally successfully establish an ideal society.
Revolutionaries need goals, achievements, and the motivation of the satisfaction that achievement brings.
Therefore, after Su Yonglin expressed his thoughts in this article, he asked various departments of the imperial court to form a joint meeting to conduct a thorough review of the current development situation in the Ming Dynasty.
On this basis, through the powerful mathematical calculation capabilities of the imperial court, the joint meeting of the imperial court needs to formulate the goals that the imperial court needs to achieve in the next five years and promulgate them to the world.
In the next five years, we will move towards this goal.
With a set of punches, the crisis of the great debate in Hongwu for six years was successfully overcome.
In all senses, this can be regarded as a victory, but the problems it exposed cannot be underestimated.
As the peace situation within the Ming Dynasty became increasingly stable, people's thoughts were undergoing a transformation, and many possibilities were evolving independently. However, their thoughts were restricted by productivity and could not move forward further.
The contradiction between the people's ideological progress and backward productivity has initially emerged.
Therefore, Su Yonglin led the joint meeting to focus the main direction of the next five-year plan on the advancement of various technologies.
Through this incident, Su Yonglin successfully pushed Xiao Cui and Zhao Xirui to the front, and pushed the Women's Department to the front, eliminating the development dilemma facing the Women's Department in one fell swoop.
Not only did the imperial court and various departments of the Renaissance Society sincerely agree with the establishment and development of the Women's Department, at least no one dared to cooperate passively in the open.
The pattern of Xiao Cui as the director of the Women's Department and Zhao Xirui as the deputy director of the Women's Department was thus established, and the rumors were wiped out.
This time the debate has come to an end, but Su Yonglin always feels that the next time is waiting for him not far away. He must seize the time to perfect the theory and complete the third volume of Hongwu Political Theory and some ideological and theoretical things as soon as possible. .
Then, devote a considerable part of your energy to technological development.
Su Yonglin felt real fatigue while he had a premonition that the next stage of work would still be very difficult.
But there is no way. Since he has chosen this path, he must go on. There is no possibility of stopping or going back. There is no turning back on the path he chooses, and he is not allowed to turn back. Anyone who wants to turn back is his enemy.
While a series of major debates were taking place in Zhongdu, a fierce economic war was also going on in Jiangnan.
Before leaving Zhongdu and going south to Quanzhou, Lin Jingchun chaired a meeting of the Ministry of Finance and added new state-owned industrial departments under the Ministry of Finance.
In order to comply with Su Yonglin's suggestions and the changes in the future situation, Lin Jingchun went to the court and added the tea department and lacquer porcelain department that did not exist before.
The Tea Department is responsible for all tea-related work, including tea tree planting, tea harvesting and tea manufacturing, as well as the final production and sale of finished products. Tea factories in tea producing areas across the country are also managed by the Tea Department.
The Lacquer Porcelain Department is also very simple. It is responsible for all categories and grades of porcelain and lacquerware related work across the country, including the management of raw materials, the management of production workshops and final sales.
The General Administration of Weaving already exists, so there is no need to set up another department to be responsible for high-end silk, the flagship product for export.
Tea, silk, porcelain and lacquerware, these are the flagship products of ancient China's foreign trade exports. They are all veteran players that have been tested by the market for a long time. They are very popular in overseas markets. Only those who cannot make them in time can't sell them.
Originally, the reason why the Ming Dynasty did not set up a tea department and a lacquer porcelain department was simple. It was not that there were no related industries, but that the court had no spare capacity to support the porcelain industry. It could not compete with the Southern Song Dynasty and could not export.
The kilns that produce porcelain are divided into official kilns and private kilns. Generally speaking, the products produced by official kilns are directly provided to the royal family and other dignitaries for enjoyment, and ordinary people cannot enjoy them. Commercial exports are basically not done, and they do not care much about the cost. And so on, so the technology is very high.
Among the five famous kilns in the Song Dynasty, Ru kiln, Guan kiln and Jun kiln were official kilns. Among them, Ru kiln and Guan kiln were purely official kilns. Their output was not large and their craftsmanship was high. They could not be compared with private kilns. Jun kilns are divided into official Jun kilns and civilian Jun kilns. Official Jun kilns specialize in providing services to the government.
Except for these three, most of the other kilns are private kilns, which are commercially oriented. They mainly aim to make profits to expand their scale and survive. For this purpose, in addition to developing unique and superb skills, to some extent It is not inferior to the exquisiteness of the official kiln.
It’s just that official kilns don’t care about the cost, while folk songs care about the cost. There are some differences.
The eight major folk kiln systems in the Song Dynasty are Cizhou kiln system, Yaozhou kiln system, Jun kiln system, Ding kiln system, Jingdezhen kiln system, Longquan kiln system, Jian kiln system and Jizhou kiln system.
There are four located in the north, namely the Ding Kiln Series, the Jun Kiln Series, the Cizhou Kiln Series and the Yaozhou Kiln Series.
Located in the south are the Jingdezhen kiln system, Longquan kiln system, Jian kiln system and Jizhou kiln system.
Although four of the eight major kiln systems are located in the north, with a series of events such as the Jin-Song War and the migration of the Song Dynasty to the south, a large number of northern ceramic craftsmen went south and did not stay in the north to be used by the rulers of the Jin Kingdom. For example, the Ding kiln system has A large number of craftsmen followed the Song Dynasty and moved south.
Their destination was Jingdezhen. They brought the firing technology of Ding kiln and combined it with the firing technology of Jingdezhen. They created many treasures, making Jingdezhen porcelain enter its heyday and become a treasure-level art.
The craftsmen who did not leave their hometown and stayed in the local area were passive and slow down due to war or various reasons. It would be good if they did not destroy it. It was impossible to help the rulers of the Jin Kingdom to restore the porcelain firing situation to the prosperity of the Northern Song Dynasty.
Moreover, the Jin Kingdom had been in political turmoil since its founding until Wanyan Liang's death at the hands of Su Yonglin, and there were constant wars. There was no soil for the development of porcelain firing technology.
Therefore, the Ming Dynasty could not compete with the Southern Song Dynasty in porcelain technology.
