Deng Xiaoping named capitalist roader therefore downfall and be decentralized. Although Zhou Enlai always on the vital position of the premier was still affected by the fire of the Cultural Revolution. During the late Cultural Revolution period that was full of weak economic and social chaos , Zhou Enlai attempted to start correcting left at the tolerance range of Mao Zedong, which would inevitably conflicted with the group of the Cultural Revolution, and reducing the effectiveness of revolution.
After Lin Biao incident, these external factors which included the succession, credibility of the Cultural Revolution, international situation, and Zhou Enlai’s serious illness drove Deng Xiaoping back into politics. Deng regained the trust of Mao Zedong with ＂ Never reverse the verdict ＂, entering the State Council as his extraordinary talent, and finally charged the leading party and government primary task; He had also been appointed the People’’s Liberation Army chief of staff, holding the military power. Consequently, Deng Xiaoping could lead the China step by step to relief from plight during the Cultural Revolution from 1973 to 1975 which was the full consolidation period.
But Deng Xiaoping’s rectification was too fast to influence the foundation of the Cultural Revolution which was vital to Mao Zedong. And Zhou Enlai’s death induced coincidently the long suppressed emotions of the Chinese people to cause a mass protest movement, which couldn’t still raise Mao Zedong’s senses to admit his mistakes during the Cultural Revolution, but to reject Deng Xiaoping again and give him a chance to verify his future performance.
