Chairman Mao would always look to him every night to learn about the international developments of that day
He came from a prestigious background

The two sides of the strait have been isolated for 33 years
Reopen the door to dialogue

Liao Chengzhi, a native of Huiyang, Guangdong
Sons of Kuomintang elders Liao Zhongkai and He Xiangning
Born in Japan in 1908
In 1924
Liao Chengzhi joined the Chinese Nationalist Party
Just when he was full of fighting spirit
When you're ready to make a big show
His father, Liao Zhongkai, was assassinated by the Kuomintang rightists
During the investigation
Liao Chengzhi saw a lot of criminals
They were once guests of honor at home
I can't help but fall into reflection
Soon after
Chiang Kai-shek launched the April 12 counter-revolutionary coup

In this bloody storm
Liao Chengzhi was completely disappointed in the Kuomintang
Resolutely quit the Kuomintang

Come here on time to Liao Chengzhi
Get the latest news abroad for the day
And sit with him for an hour or two
Talk about things at work and in life
For this
Young people who are called "party babies" by themselves
Mao Zedong was very fond of it

Liao Chengzhi's characteristic optimism
