The ternary harmony of the world resting on military power

If the phrase "socialism with Chinese characteristics" (中国特色社会主义) is interpreted strictly according to the original meanings of the eight characters of which it consists, a meaning hidden from foreigners will emerge, namely: a Union of clans around the ancestral throne with shades of the color of the middle state – these colors are: red, yellow and blue.

Characters convey thought pictorially (in pictures), bypassing the sounds of speech. Therefore, the European concept of "socialism" in the minds of the Chinese is fixed not by signs of speech (letters), but by symbols of thought that existed long before this concept appeared in Europe. Because of the characters, the thinking of the Chinese is concrete-symbolic, whereas Europeans think abstractly and conceptually. Therefore, Chinese thought is better discerned adequately by feeling, than it is to be interpreted by the logic of the judgments of the analytical mind. 

That is, Chinese specificity is revealed in the palette of five basic symbols (red, yellow, blue, white, black), which connect different aspects of the worldview of the nation of yellow people. 

elements (water, fire, wood, metal, soil); orientation (south – red – fire; center – yellow – soil); color and number of the Chinese worldview

Let us return to the palette of color in Chinese politics:

In the PRC, the symbol of the union of clans resting on military power is the blue 100-yuan banknote of the 1900 model, issued by the People's Bank as a sign of reconciliation in society after the suppression of the "pro-democracy" protests on Tiananmen Square on 04.06.1989.

The banknote depicts the profiles of four leaders of New China:

  • the "Great Helmsman" Mao Zedong (color symbol – red),
  • the "beloved premier" Zhou Enlai (color symbol – blue).
  • PRC Chairman Liu Shaoqi (color symbol – yellow).
  • Commander-in-Chief of the Red Army of China Zhu De (as the personification of Mao's thesis: "power grows out of the barrel of a gun").

The red 100-yuan banknote of the 1999 model with the portrait of only one "wisest Chairman Mao" symbolized the victory of the red line, whose continuer was Jiang Zemin.  

The alignment of the union of clans at the "key to the country's future" 4th plenum of the 20th CPC Central Committee (20-23.10.25) has the form of a ternary harmony of the world of pragmatists, nationalists and dreamers.

In the PRC, against the backdrop of global transformation, by the natural course of things, the contradiction has intensified between:

  • pragmatists: friends of the US dollar - blue - "Komsomol members" – the line: Zhou Enlai - Hu Jintao - Hu Chunhua - "three represents" - constructive cooperation with the West, and
  • nationalists: revival of greatness - yellow - bureaucrats - the line: Liu Shaoqi - Deng Xiaoping - "Shanghai people" - reliance on one's own forces, with
  • inspirers – dreamers above the clash of pragmatists with nationalists: builders around China of the Community of Shared Future for Mankind - red - the line Mao Zedong – Jiang Zemin - Xi Jinping - seizure of the future through the sinicization of Marxism.

In August there was a long coordination of the clans' positions during the bosses' seaside vacation at the resort of Beidaihe, after which a purge took place in the security bloc of the militant radicals who had inflicted "serious damage to the party principle – the party commands the gun" (严重破坏党指挥枪的原则).

On 03.09.25, a grandiose parade of the heirs of victory in World War II was held in Beijing, demonstrating the military might of socialism with Chinese characteristics of Xi Jinping's new era.

The consensus of the clans is the decisions of the 4th plenum, which mark the dominance of the red line and boil down to the following:

Having done away with absolute poverty and achieved the goal of fully building a moderately prosperous society (xiaokang), the PRC is transitioning from the stage of development of an industrial society with large-scale investments, broad exports of low-value-added goods and environmental pressure, to a model of innovative development and technological sovereignty based on growing domestic demand and new markets along the "21st Century Maritime Silk Road" and the "Economic Belt" of the 16 countries of Eurasia.

The 15th Five-Year Plan (2026–2030) is not merely a list of economic goals. Achieving the status of a developed country will require collective wisdom, the uplift of culture, the education system, human resources potential, sporting excellence and a high level of public healthcare while implementing the principle of "the people above all."

In fact, the 14th, 15th and 16th five-year plans are united by a common goal – achieving the socialist modernization of the PRC by 2035. 

There are 10 years left until China achieves the goal of accomplishing socialist modernization, and a little more than 20 years (by 2049) until the full building of a powerful modern socialist state and the completion of the cause of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation through Chinese modernization. 

The success of the great cause of transforming the PRC into a world leader is ensured by the collective wisdom of the clans that have reached a consensus: red + blue + yellow are the primary colors of the palette of power that compose the triune harmony of the world. 

At the same time, in the financial system on the external contour of dual circulation, the dollar \ yuan pragmatists have shifted the proportion: Russian raw materials and fuel – the Chinese factory – the American sales market in favor of the USA at the expense of the Russian Federation.

And this means that thanks to the deepening of reforms of the economic system of a structural-institutional nature, the creation of an incorruptible apparatus, the improvement of the basic institutions of a market economy, fair competition, the efforts of the entire country and deeper international cooperation, China, on new trajectories of development and unified planning, will steadily approach the achievement of its set goals in a new campaign in a new era.
