Observe calmly; secure our position; cope with affairs calmly; hide our capacities and bide our time; be good at maintaining a low profile; and never claim leadership.

In China, we intend to acquire advanced technology, science and management skills to serve our socialist production. And these things as such have no class character.

It is Chairman Mao who should be held primarily responsible for the Great Leap Forward. But it didn't take him long - just a few months - to recognize his mistake, and he did so before the rest of us and proposed corrections. And in 1962, when because of some other factors those corrections had not been fully carried out, he made a self-criticism. But the lessons were not fully drawn, and as a result the "Cultural Revolution" erupted.

We must firmly grasp management. Just making things isn't enough. We need to raise the quality.

If the masses feel some anger, we must let them express it.
