Chapter 446 Return to the Japanese Communist Party Headquarters

 Burning the war criminals' tablets was not the end, but only the beginning. After the burning of the tablets, cadres from the Japanese Communist Party's Central Propaganda Department visited the site to supervise and guide all renovation work at the shrine.

 Before the renovation, there was one more thing: the Japanese Communist Party had its official media, as well as numerous private media outlets, record everything that happened inside the shrine before the renovation, and had relevant comrades provide critical commentary in front of the cameras.

 In the past, photography was not allowed inside the Yasukuni Shrine.

 The reason is that the Japanese reactionary forces are afraid that if everything inside is made public, it will destroy the "good image" they have painstakingly cultivated for many years.

 On certain heavy historical issues, the Japanese Communist Party and other left-wing parties will of course support whatever the Liberal Democratic Party and its right-wingers oppose.

 The Japanese Communist Party's bringing the exhibits inside the Yasukuni Shrine, especially the exhibits in the Yushukan, to the official media for the first time is precisely a manifestation of facing up to history, and is also a public punishment for the right wing's fear of facing up to history.

 After the filming was completed, various relevant personnel began to renovate the interior of the entire Yasukuni Shrine according to the plan.

 It is easy to remove the garbage that glorifies war from the shrine, but what content to replace it with, as well as the placement and design of these contents, and the arrangement and writing of the introductory copy, are all subjects that require careful consideration.

 As for the historical research and collection of the introductory text, the Japanese Communist Party is ready to call on the just forces of the entire society to work together to complete it. In addition to comrades in the propaganda department, it has also mobilized other left-wing figures such as the Social Democratic Party, conscientious historians and experts in universities, and even Kancolle.

 It is worth mentioning that this time, the ship girls related to the introduction text editing include not only Hibiki and Noshiro, but also Mikasa, Nagato and the Five Carrier Battles.

 The addition of these people proves that Japan's ship girls' reflection on this historical issue is comprehensive, not limited to some ship girls.

 As mentioned before, the Japanese Communist Party wants to limit the worship function of the Yasukuni Shrine to people who have made significant contributions to the progress of Japanese society and all victims of the war (including civilians who died in their own country and other countries). This does not include Japanese Communist Party members and other left-wing figures.

 In order to commemorate the left-wing figures who sacrificed their lives in history, the Japanese Communist Party plans to imitate China and build a revolutionary cemetery similar to the Babaoshan Revolutionary Cemetery. Now that the plan has been officially approved, the preliminary site selection is underway.

 After the completion of this cemetery, it will be used to commemorate all the left-wing figures in history who sacrificed their lives for Japan's socialist revolution and who have made outstanding contributions to the cause of socialist construction in the future.

 For example, there were early Japanese communist pioneers such as Kotoku Shusui, Kawakami Hajime, Sakai Toshihiko, Katayama Sen, Tokuda Kyuichi, Hane Goro, Tosaka Jun, Yamakawa Hitoshi, Fukumoto Kazuo, and there were also martyrs like Fuwa Tetsuzo who lived in modern times and suffered from the reactionary hands of the Liberal Democratic Party.

 Just as the Yasukuni Shrine was preparing for renovation, Ibaraki Hanaogi was inspecting the headquarters of the Central Committee of the Japanese Communist Party in Tokyo and party branches in various areas of Tokyo.

 During the White Terror a little over a year earlier, the Metropolitan Police Department unreasonably sealed off the headquarters building of the Japanese Communist Party Central Committee. Later, after the Japanese Communist Party launched an uprising in Kansai, the building was sold, and some time later, a hotel group purchased it with the intention of turning it into a hotel.

 After the hotel group took over the Japanese Communist Party Central Headquarters Building, it began to demolish the interior and renovate it to make it suitable for use as a hotel.

 Because the Japanese Communist Party's revolution progressed very quickly, the Japanese Communist Party had just conquered half of the country as soon as the headquarters was demolished, which far exceeded the expectations of the chairman of the hotel company.

 The board of directors of the hotel company analyzed the domestic situation and decided to stop the renovation and cut the losses in time. Otherwise, when the Japanese Communist Party broke into Tokyo, no one present would have an easy life.

 After the Japanese Communist Party entered Tokyo, they found the trembling directors of the hotel group and discussed with them the exchange of ownership of the headquarters building.

 The hotel company's top executives thought they were doomed, with the least they could do being confiscated. Surprisingly, the Japanese Communist Party simply demanded they hand over the building without compensation, and offered them no further remedies.

 The hotel company's board of directors was surprised when they heard this. They had been prepared for the property to be confiscated, but this was the result? So the hotel company's board of directors immediately agreed to the Japanese Communist Party's conditions, and just like that, the hotel returned to the family's hands.

 After the matter was settled, Ibaraki Hana fanned himself towards the former headquarters building. Looking at the dilapidated office building compared to the once beautiful one, he couldn't help but sigh, "Oh, redecorating it will cost money again..."

 "It's okay, we can just go back to the hotel company and ask them to bear the renovation costs." An accompanying cadre gave Ibaraki Hanayama some advice.

 Ibaraki Hanafugi waved his hand, dismissing the idea. "The fact that they were able to voluntarily stop the renovations shows that they knew what was happening. Returning it for free is enough. As someone who knows what is happening, let's give them some face."

 "Our real enemies are the LDP opposition, the chaebols behind them, and all right-wing elements. Apart from them, the rest can be reasoned with," Ibaraki Hanasugi added.

 "Renovation costs are actually quite simple. We've already shut down the remaining local LDP organizations and related assets, haven't we? Why would we worry about a lack of money?"

 After the inspection, Ibaraki Hanasu gave instructions: "The headquarters building must be restored to its original state as soon as possible. The other district party branch offices in the Tokyo area that have been sealed, acquired, or even destroyed must also resume their office functions as soon as possible.

 After this is completed, the next step will be to rebuild the grassroots party organizations in the Tokyo area. If we want to further establish a firm foothold in Tokyo and carry out our work, we cannot do so without comprehensively rebuilding the local grassroots party organizations.

 Regarding the relationship between the Japanese Communist Party and other political parties, as well as other more political and social matters, the Japanese Communist Party is ready to convene the Japan People's Political Consultative Conference to mediate the relationship between other parties and discuss Japan's future national affairs.

 Preparations for the formal establishment of the country.

 Just like the Western teachers, Japan has not yet been liberated, and the social and economic transformation of the old liberated areas has not been completed. The Japanese Political Consultative Conference is currently just a transitional product.

 Since the Second Battle of Sekigahara, the newly liberated areas have been liberated too quickly, and social transformation has not yet begun. Therefore, Japan cannot be considered a socialist society at present. At most, it can only be considered a people's government led by the proletariat, and therefore the conditions for convening a People's Congress are not yet met.

 The Japanese Communist Party currently plans to complete economic recovery and socialist transformation in three to five years, and then hold elections for representatives to the All-Japan National People's Congress to make full preparations for convening the first All-Japan National People's Congress.

 Chapter 447: Driverless Ride-hailing Experience

 Qingdao, Shandong, China

 "Hmm... so comfortable~"

 In Changchun's own room, Changchun pulled out a rod-shaped object that could only be understood but not described from somewhere deep inside his body.

 When the "radish" is pulled out, some crystal-clear liquid is inevitably brought out. This liquid is very viscous, so when the rod-shaped head separates from one of the entrances of the Changchun body, a thin and long silver thread is pulled out.

 I guess this is the best example of "having a connection yet still having a connection".

 Changchun temporarily placed the rod on her desk, right next to her daily planner, which listed her recent learning goals and plans. Each row had a big red checkmark, proof of her hard work and commitment to completing her plans on time.

 The most recent one I completed was today's study plan. Changchun spent the morning carefully reading the book "Research on Basic Issues of ZGGCD Party Building" published by the People's Publishing House from beginning to end; the book has a total of 56 words.

 From this, it's clear that although Changchun loves to generate her own energy, she always puts study and work first, and personal enjoyment always comes second. She refuses to enjoy herself until she finishes her studies and work.

 It has to be said that this spirit is one of the basic qualities of a Communist Party member, and it is worthy for every comrade to take it as an example and study it seriously.

 Of course, there is no need to learn about the intensity of Changchun's self-generation. This kind of self-generation intensity, which is only found in comic books, is unbearable for ordinary humans in reality.

 There is a sentence in "The Communist Manifesto": "The proletariat can only liberate itself in the end by liberating all mankind." Changchun's style of work may be one of the manifestations of this sentence at the personal micro level.

 As for the clear spring that flowed out during self-generation, Changchun ignored it. These liquids in the ship girl's body would disappear soon after leaving the body, as if they had never existed, so there was no need to worry about the bed and bedding being soiled.

 But for some reason, "milk" seems to be an exception.

 After getting out of bed, Changchun removed the milk collection bottle from the breast pump, taking a small sip to confirm the quality, then poured it into an empty milk carton to conceal it, and put it in the refrigerator to cool.

 "Hey~ It's about time to go out and play." Changchun is a two-dimensional person, but he is not a otaku.

 As soon as she finished speaking, a blue light flashed, and her body, which was naked a second ago, was completely covered by the clothes that flashed out the next second, just like a magical girl transforming.

 Then Changchun picked up her beloved Mate 60 Pro, opened the door and prepared to leave. But before leaving, Changchun had to call the other sisters. This is a kind of etiquette, just like inviting family members to dinner.

 Changchun knocked on Captain Su Haiyin's door and called out, "Sister Anshan, this week is a rare weekend off. Let's go out and play together~"

 A few seconds later, Anshan opened the door and said, "Wait a moment, I'm cooking for Xiao Su (Captain) and his family."

 "A whole family? Deputy Commander Su's family came to visit him?" Changchun was surprised. Su Haiyin's current house was bought by the state for Anshan, Su Haiyin, and his wife's retirement, so it usually only housed three people.

 Anshan affirmed, "Yes, as for the elderly, their children who live far away have to come home to visit them every now and then. I can't possibly ask them to come all the way here and even work hard to cook for them, right?"

 "Wait a minute... Sister Anshan, you are in charge of cooking? Are you sure it won't turn into a coke kiln?" Changchun only then noticed Huadian and felt incredible that his elder sister could cook.

 "Changchun, don't look down on your sister." Anshan clarified himself: "I can't cook, but I can make soup and rice."

 Changchun said with a half-smile, using the game's voice meme as a joke: "It's just a joke, sister, just don't put wild ginseng in chili peppers."

 "Okay, then I also hope that Changchun won't fire missiles at the port headquarters building one day." Anshan also jokingly hit back.

 Changchun decided to change the subject. "Since the deputy commander's family is here, can I go in and take a look?"

 Anshan shook his head and said, "They're all driving around right now. I'm cooking some soup. Once I put the rice in the pot and set the time for the soup, I'll go out with you. You go down and call Taiyuan first."

 "Yes, okay, sister." Changchun said and went downstairs to call Taiyuan.

 Two minutes later, Anshan left the house, and the three little ones went out to play.

 Wait... Three little ones? Where's Fushun? Someone will definitely notice this detail. As mentioned in the first five chapters, Fushun was confined to the port area because of a prank on the fleet political commissar.

 They can only be released after fifteen days.

 After reaching the main road, the three of them discussed where to go. It was Destroyer's nature to enjoy open spaces and run, but in a densely populated area like Qingdao, it was difficult to find a suitable place.

 In sports stadiums, there are still many people exercising, so it's impossible to run away. Once the speed is increased, it is easy to hit someone, which can lead to hospitalization at best and death at worst. This is no joke.

 Finally, the three of them unanimously decided to go to the hill southeast of Yinchuan West Road in Shinan District to play orienteering.

 Originally, they had planned to go to the Laoshan Scenic Area, where the mountainous area was more extensive, but that was rejected because it was too far away. Actually, that place is not too far for the Destroyer Girl's mobility, but it is impossible to run around in the city!

 "By the way, I read the news recently that the country is vigorously promoting driverless online ride-hailing. Jinan and Qingdao are fortunate to be the first cities in Shandong to promote it. How about we give it a try?" Taiyuan gave the two sisters some travel suggestions.

 Anshan nodded and said, "No problem. We can't reject new things..." She suddenly remembered something and changed the subject, "Hey, speaking of Jinan, I suddenly remembered, Changchun, why didn't you invite Jinan?"

 "Jinan has an event today, hosting a visiting primary school class at Haibo. I'm serving as a tour guide and interpreter, so I'm busy." Changchun explained.

 "Okay, then I'll download the app and call a taxi now." Anshan unlocked his phone, opened the Huawei App Store, and downloaded the Luobu Kuaipao App.

 After downloading, Anshan installed the app, registered, and called a taxi in one go. However, after opening the app, she discovered that she had to get off the driverless taxi at a special stop.

 "Uh... in that case, isn't this thing essentially just a driverless private bus?" Anshan complained.

 Changchun believes the future is promising. "It's like this now, but we need to take a long-term view. Maybe in the future we can get on and off the bus anywhere."

 Fortunately, the nearest designated bus stop was not far from where the three little ones were, just two streets away. It took them more than ten minutes to walk to the bus stop and get ready to call a taxi.

 After a while, the car arrived in front of the three children. Changchun was the first to step forward and open the passenger door. When he opened the door, he found someone sitting in the driver's seat. He reminded Changchun, "Sorry, no one is allowed in the front seat."

 This made Changchun feel confused. "Isn't it unmanned? Comrade, what's going on?"

 "I'm a security officer." The person in the car replied.

 "Okay... Sister, Taiyuan, get in the car, get in the back seat." Changchun turned around and asked Anshan and Taiyuan to get in the car.

 After the three of them got into the car, Changchun decided to do some social research and asked the driver: "Comrade, is this car driving by itself or are you driving it yourself?"

 “It opens on its own.”

 Changchun asked, "If it drives on its own...that means you're not driving, just a safety supervisor, right?"

 The safety officer replied, "Yes, and testing work."

 "So this thing now, this driverless online car-hailing service, is not yet fully driverless, right?" Changchun asked again.

 "It's not allowed in Qingdao yet, but it's already allowed in Wuhan," the safety officer said, checking the dashboard. After confirming that everything was OK, he clicked the Start Driving button and let the car start.

 As a Marxist, Changchun is most concerned about the rights of workers. "Comrade, are you paid the same as other online ride-hailing drivers?"

 "No, we have a fixed salary," said the security guard.

 "How much does it cost per month?"

 "5000 to 7000 yuan."

 Changchun thought about it and felt that this salary, considering the average salary in Qingdao and the workload of safety officers, was quite acceptable.

 At this time, the self-driving car was driving along when it saw a car not far ahead. When it was about ten meters away from the car, the self-driving car automatically turned on its turn signal and chose a lane with no other vehicles around.

 During the entire process, the safety officer's hands are off the steering wheel, and the large screen on the center console displays 3D road conditions within a radius of about 20 meters from the vehicle. The real-time dynamics of surrounding vehicles and pedestrians are intuitively displayed on the screen.

 Seeing this, Anshan couldn't help but sigh, "I still remember the online comments and news from several years ago, all saying that autonomous driving was fraught with difficulties. Now that commercial applications have begun, the speed of technological development is really fast..."

 "It's just unmanned, but Changchun is also the world's first unmanned ship." Changchun joked.

 Anshan complained: "Is this autonomous driving the same as your 'autonomous driving'? Our research team still doesn't understand our 'autonomous driving'."

 He is too concerned about unemployment. “If driverless taxis are promoted, how many taxi drivers will be unemployed in the future…”

 "That's true, but as the times progress, new things will inevitably replace old things. The wheel of history rolls forward. Not to mention millions, even tens of millions of canal workers who depend on their livelihoods for food and clothing cannot resist it. Luddism is unacceptable.

 In the past, British workers smashing machines didn't necessarily improve the working class's situation. What truly kept workers in poverty and unemployment was the private ownership of the means of production and the capitalists' pursuit of profit maximization.

 In addition, the social problems caused by unemployment can force the government to reform. Although it sounds bad from a personal point of view, this kind of use of social contradictions for reform is

 Reducing obstacles on roads is not new in history.

 Taiyuan's concerns are valid, and indeed, they are quite stressful for individuals. However, everything has its own contradictions and two sides, and we shouldn't let employment issues hold us back.

 A large number of jobs will be replaced, and productivity will increase significantly. The goods produced must always have a consumer group to pay for them, but a large number of people are unemployed and cannot afford these goods. Capitalism can never avoid hiring the proletariat to produce goods, and the proletariat will pay for them.

 But correspondingly, the capitalist production relations may be unable to control this advanced mode of production. The specific manifestation is the intensification of social contradictions and the promotion of production relations reform.

 This will likely be the social foundation for our Party to eliminate capitalist factors in the economy in the future. Only when the masses deeply understand the evils of capitalism can the reform of the country and the government proceed smoothly. It is always better to go with the flow than to force things.

 Changchun made this analysis in the team voice chat. She didn't want the driver to hear it to avoid any unnecessary misunderstandings.

 After listening to Changchun, Anshan added a condition to his argument. "Changchun, what you said is very good, but I need to add a prerequisite: it must be under the leadership of a Marxist party and under the conditions of people's democracy/proletarian dictatorship. Otherwise, your theory will easily be criticized as revisionism."

 "It is because I believe our Party has not degenerated that I dare to draw this conclusion. Our fundamental disagreement with some people is actually a difference in our understanding of the nature of the Party and state power after 1978.

 If this disagreement didn't exist, many things would actually make sense, rather than the current bitter arguments where no one can convince the other on various concrete issues of reality and history."

 Chapter 448: The Theory of the Central Emperor? fnmdp!

 (Continued from the previous chapter)

 Changchun was sharing his views in the internal voice chat. When he was halfway through, his external communicator (mobile phone) suddenly rang.

 A passionate Huawei theme song ringtone filled the small space inside the car.

 "When your dreams come alive you're unstoppable~"
