Historian: July 1st is not the Chinese Communist Party’s Founding Day

On July 1st every year, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) celebrates it as the party’s founding anniversary with nationwide grand festivities. At the same time, this day is also considered one of the sensitive dates in China, with many viewing it as a day of national calamity. Historian Li Yuanhua, who resides in Australia, pointed out that July 1st is not the actual founding date of the CCP. By unraveling historical truths, people can understand the true nature of the CCP, recognize its reality, and thereby choose a brighter future for themselves.

Below is a compilation based on recent interviews with Li Yuanhua.

The exact date of the CCP’s establishment and the convening of the CCP’s First National Congress are unclear even to the Party itself. Years later, it was claimed to have occurred from July 23rd to August 3rd. In 1938, Mao Zedong, the former leader who attended the Congress, designated July 1st as the CCP’s birthday. Therefore, the notion of July 1st as the party’s founding date lacks factual basis.

In fact, the CCP’s First National Congress was not initiated by CCP representatives themselves, but was organized by the Communist International delegate Maring in Shanghai. Maring, a Dutch national, was an internationally wanted criminal.

Maring was an alias. He had engaged in so-called revolutions and uprisings in the Dutch colonial territory of Java (Indonesia), which drew the attention of Dutch colonial authorities. In 1918, he was expelled from Java.

On April 20th, 1921, Maring applied for a visa to the Republic of China in Vienna, Austria, but was arrested and expelled due to being on a blacklist.

After being expelled from Austria, Maring’s movements were closely monitored by various police forces as he assumed false identities to evade capture.

On May 7th, 1921, he boarded the Acqulia passenger ship in Aden and clandestinely entered Shanghai posing as a journalist from the Japanese East Economist magazine. He registered at the Dutch Consulate in Shanghai under the pseudonym Andresen.

Another representative dispatched by the Communist International Far Eastern Bureau was Nikolsky. Nikolsky, also using a pseudonym, was a Soviet spy. One of his missions in Shanghai was to provide funds to Communist International staff and other Soviet communist party members working in China.

The CCP First National Congress had 13 delegates, including these two foreigners – a wanted criminal and a spy.

Delegates recalled receiving 100 “yuan” each upon arrival and 50 “yuan” when departing.

With money from spy Nikolsky and the criminal Maring leading the Congress, the CCP was founded.

However, both these communist elements met grim fates. Maring was captured by the Nazis in 1942 and executed. Nikolsky was arrested on espionage charges in the Soviet Union in 1938 and met the same fate.

At that time, the CCP operated covertly, evading capture in the French Concession, and the First National Congress left no Chinese records. Perhaps three Russian documents were prepared to report to the Communist International Headquarters, and these documents were preserved in the Soviet Union.

In 1959, the CCP retrieved these three documents from the Soviet Union and deemed them as precious artifacts related to the CCP’s First National Congress.

In 1929, the Chinese Nationalist Government sought to reclaim a road built with Russian and Northeast China investments. However, the CCP resisted, prioritizing defending the Soviet Union.

Defending the Soviet Union on its own soil equated to betraying the Chinese nation and acting against the country. In Jiangxi, the CCP established Soviet-style regimes. During the anti-Japanese resistance, the CCP collaborated with Japan or engaged in drug trafficking to expand its influence. Looking back at its history, including after 1949, the CCP brought calamity upon the Chinese nation.

Revealing this historical account aims to expose the true face of history, allowing people to comprehend the real history of the CCP and to see it clearly.

July 1st has witnessed massive protests lasting over a decade in Hong Kong, becoming one of the CCP’s most feared dates. Today, July 1st is a day of remembrance in Hong Kong, marking a national calamity in China.

Understanding the truth is crucial for every individual. The CCP stirs up trouble worldwide, disrupting global order and causing harm wherever it goes. If you believe it is acting for the greater good, masking as a representative of the nation and its people, you are being deceived. This not only harms you personally but also poses a threat to society. Those who have been affiliated with the CCP should disassociate themselves promptly. It is a self-rescue movement among the Chinese people to spiritually reject the CCP and choose a better future for themselves.
