Features: Deng Xiaoping is one of the three strategic giants in modern Chinese history, alongside Sun Yat-sen and Mao Zedong, who had a profound impact on the historical process. Sun Yat-sen pioneered the modern national democratic revolution, leading the overthrow of the feudal monarchy that ruled China for thousands of years. Mao Zedong led the great victory of the Chinese people's revolution, establishing the People's Republic of China and the socialist system. Deng Xiaoping led the reform and opening-up, a "second revolution" in China, and pioneered a new path for socialism with Chinese characteristics.
