Features: Wang Guangmei said with great sorrow, "It wasn’t that Comrade Liu Shaoqi didn’t have 10 more years to live—it was a catastrophe that took his life! After the start of the 'Cultural Revolution,' the group led by Lin Biao, Jiang Qing, and Chen Boda mobilized 400,000 people to review 4 million volumes of enemy and puppet archives, but they never once confronted Comrade Liu Shaoqi to verify any of the claims. Unable to find any evidence, they resorted to fascist methods, fabricated false testimonies, and fabricated charges, politically framing and physically persecuting Comrade Liu Shaoqi, resulting in the greatest injustice in the history of our Party!" The case of Comrade Liu Shaoqi’s injustice is closely linked to the "Cultural Revolution." In a sense, without the "Cultural Revolution," there would have been no injustice against Comrade Liu Shaoqi; and without the injustice against Comrade Liu Shaoqi, it would not have been the "Cultural Revolution." The case of Comrade Liu Shaoqi during the "Cultural Revolution" was the most extensive in terms of scope, the highest-ranking victims, and the most severe consequences, as well as the greatest injustice in the history of the Communist Party of China. History has declared the complete failure of the conspiracies of Lin Biao and the "Gang of Four." History is just to every founder and leader of New China and will not forget anyone’s contributions. Like Mao Zedong, Zhou Enlai, and Zhu De, Comrade Liu Shaoqi will forever live in the hearts of the people of all ethnic groups in our country.
