"There is an old saying in China: starve to death and not accept food given by pity, which means that people should live with dignity. China also has a saying: A drop of water should be repaid with a spring. Therefore, when the New China faced difficulties in the 1960s, the US government, which did not understand the Eastern thinking, proposed aid with political conditions that did not threaten neighboring countries with force, was flatly rejected by the Chinese government, which led to a tentative test of the normalization of relations between China and the United States after the cracks in the Sino-Soviet Union. However, the Malayan government seized this opportunity and provided a huge amount of assistance without any additional conditions to the New China, which made the relationship between the two countries improve and finally came naturally."

"So may I ask Mr. President, Malaya had a good relationship with the United States at that time and had contact with the United States' enemy Red China. Will this be regarded as a behavior of pleasing on both sides and rats at both ends?"

"Some people do think so, and there are quite a few people. However, I want to explain that in international affairs, it is wrong to be black or white. You are either ally or enemies, and there is no middle, which will mess up a lot of things. Acknowledging that the middle is a gray area, you will use the greatest flexibility to deal with the gray area. When you admit that there is a gray area, you will talk about the problem with the attitude of solving the problem, and you will calm down and sit down and negotiate to solve the problem."

"Malaya's relationship with Japan was very stiff until the 1964 Tokyo Olympics. The outside world has always speculated that this is related to your personality and experience. Can you take this opportunity to say something different from the usual statements of the Malayan government?"

"Does the official speech of Malaya have no tenable? Am I a casual person who replaces national policies with personal emotions? Dorothy, after so many years of interaction, don't you understand me? I won't talk about it anymore, don't talk about it anymore, what a broken memoir. You don't have to write it for me anymore. You have to pay your royalties... Hi, you guy dare to record it secretly, hurry up and return the tape to me."

"I'll give it back to you, what dreams are you having? You still rob it. I'll hide it, you rob it, rob it..."

"Forget it, remember, you can listen to this recording without any trouble, so don't spread it, it will damage my glorious image. I can sue you for privacy."

For more than two months after the shelling of Kinmen, although the US government and military provided Chiang Kai-shek with the "Rattlesnake" missiles and large-caliber long-range artillery, the Americans always maintained a delicate distance from the war. U.S. ships broke down three nautical miles away from Kinmen Island, and were unloaded by Kuomintang soldiers and transported to Kinmen.

On September 4, 1958, the tensions between China and the United States eased due to shelling Kinmen, and both sides finally showed their trump card.

The Chinese government issued a statement announcing that the width of China's territorial waters is 12 nautical miles. "All foreign aircraft and military ships are not allowed to enter China's territorial waters and over the territorial waters without the permission of the Government of the People's Republic of China." In the statement, the Chinese government solemnly pointed out: "Taiwan and Penghu are still to be recovered. The government of the People's Republic of China has the right to take all appropriate methods to recover these areas at appropriate times. This is China's internal affairs and does not allow foreign interference." This statement shows the US government the solemn position of the Chinese people to defend the motherland's territorial waters and airspace. It also contains the meaning of testing the US trump card.

The United States couldn't hold back and showed its trump card. On the day of the statement, Dulles issued a tough statement on behalf of the US government, openly announcing that the US government would send troops to defend Jin and Ma. At the same time, Dulles hinted to the New China in the same statement that the United States has not given up its hope of resolving the Taiwan issue through Sino-US ambassador-level talks.

Wu Ming privately commented on Dulles' statement at the government meeting: "The front is very hard, but the back is soft, with loud thunder and small raindrops."

However, China's sudden military operation to shell Kinmen angered Moscow and aroused Khrushchev's strong dissatisfaction. The reason was that: First, China did not disclose to the Soviet Union the action it had planned. Khrushchev believed that China's illegal practices were nothing more than contempt and insult to the allies. Second, Mao ZD intended to show the Soviet Union that China could act independently: How to resolve the Taiwan issue is an internal affairs of China, and there is no need to go elsewhere.

People ask for instructions or negotiate with others. Third, the shelling operation itself fully demonstrates that China does not approve of the Soviet Union's foreign policy to ease international tensions. Mao ZD believes that China can also engage in a "marginal policy of war" because "international tension" is actually not good for the United States. Fourth, China delays providing the Soviet Union with a US "rattlesnake" missile obtained in the air battle in the Taiwan Strait crisis, which made Khrushchev angry. In short, in Khrushchev's view, Mao ZD simply ignores the existence of the alliance.

China and the Soviet Union's foreign policies went further and further away, and deviated. At that time, the Soviet Union became increasingly inclined to adopt a eased policy towards the United States since the "20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China", especially after the successful trial production of the Soviet hydrogen bomb in 1954. Many Soviet experts wrote reports to the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. They believed that wars could never be fought again from now on. Once wars were fought, it would be destroyed by humans. There were many analytical data and reasons. They said that the main reason was that the problem of the first strike was not solved, and the other party could fight back, and as long as the counterattack was a loss-winning loss.

Khrushchev had a particularly great influence. He believed that in modern society, at least wars could not break out between major powers. Once war broke out, it would be a nuclear war. If it was a nuclear war, it would be a destruction of mankind, so he demanded easing. Another thing was that in 1956, the Soviet Communist Party proposed to develop the economy. To develop the economy, there would be a peaceful environment. Based on this point, he repeatedly emphasized that it would be necessary to ease and not quarrel with the Americans in everything. He would raise any issues of restricting nuclear weapons through negotiations and banning nuclear tests.

Plus, summit talks, meetings with Eisenhower, etc. But China was not good at that time, especially after 1957, Mao ZD believed that a tense state could promote the development of the revolution - this was his original words. He believed that a tense state could stimulate the United States on the one hand, and could tie it up to prevent it from suppressing revolutionary movements around the world. You see, when I was firing the United States, I became nervous. When he was nervous, he transferred all his military power to the Taiwan Strait, and other revolutions in Lebanon and the Middle East were
