This is shanghai the Historic Hotel on the Yangtze River chinas greatest city. I arranged to meet the american author James Bradley whose latest bestselling book the china mirage reveals an extraordinary Hidden History of American Power and mountain china. It was almost illegal for someone like me to know a chinese for almost all of American History the chinese came to america to mine gold and build the railroads and americans decided we didnt like the competition so in 882. 00 we had the chinese exclusion act which kept the chaneys out of the United States for about 100 years so you have the largest population in the world that can come to the United States so it just the point were putting up the statue of liberty saying we welcome everybody we were wrecked you know wall saying we welcome everybody except those cheneys. Fear of a rising china today is the latest chapter in the history of propaganda but president of the chinese as uncouth and in front. To western popular and political culture the chinese became the yellow peril. And racial stereotypes for the constant theme. And threat. As the t. V. Show is. Was just really. Revels in the stuff. That. I. Felt. This caricature of an entire people can see old enough or richer and. For the american to lead to 19th century china was a goldmine of drugs. War and delano the grandfather of Franklin Delano. Roosevelt was the american opium king of china he was the biggest american opium dealer 2nd to the british he welcomed the 1st American Ship into china to help with the opium or as much of the east coast of america columbia harvard yale princeton were born from opium money the American Industrial revolution was funded by huge pools of money where did this come from it came from Illegal Drugs in the biggest market in the world china let me get this right the grandfather of. The most liberal president Franklin Delano roosevelt was a drug runner yes Franklin Delano roosevelt never made much money in his life he had Public Service jobs that were very lowly paid but he had yachts see it summer homes he had mansions in new york city the kids went to private schools he inherited a fortune from Warren Delano his father who was the american opium king of china if you scratch anyone with the name forbes in there named John Forbes Kerry secretary of state John Forbes Kerry youll find opium money his great grandfather was an opium dealer. How big was opium money opium money built the 1st Industrial City in the United States lol massachusetts it built the 1st 5 railroads in the United States opium money all over the east coast but it wasnt talked about it was called the china trade and if you go to various museums you can see teas and silks. Exhibited and they keep quiet about all that big opium money. In the scramble to get opium money china was invaded and colonized by britain and the other imperial power was. Far anomalies grab the whole swathes of china. This is the American Army in Tiananmen Square peking in 1900. Great cities like shanghai were taken over and declared concessions and foreigners lived a life of privilege and luxury amidst terrible poverty imposed on the chinese. Resistance known as the boxer rebellion was put down with the savagery. This rape of china set the tone for how china was perceived in the west well into the 20th century. This is the distinguished historian we should know theodore wrights white 105 go to the white house speaking in the 1960 s. Perhaps china is too vast to be governed by mercy yet of chinese mine craves order. They must be brought to recognize they are the biggest factor in the worlds disorder. And we must untangle the madness of their mind the most difficult task in the world is to reach the minds of men who. Want what was really complaining about what the loss of a china but the imperial west could dominate and the to feet of general Chiang Kai Shek who were these famously powerful christian wife mailing sume guarded americas interests in china. That is until they were thrown out to 949. 00 by a communist revolution led by mouth said. Molly had beaten Chiang Kai Shek 3 times in huge battles involving millions of combatants mao was a winner in this contest from the early 1930 s. On but we know very little about it and people dont understand that even today. Shanghai hears the message clearly as foreign businessmen bought up their shops go now go quickly communism archers take what you can but. Elemental haste the western powers evacuate the city they have built for good and bad alike mostly the businessmen come for profit as well as missionaries come to she must say good bye south b. N. C. Steams the last of western influence their well to a century. People and today its difficult to understand the paranoia ignited by mouse revolution. As we look at china on the map we can see that china is the basic cause of all of our troubles in asia i believe that for the state or. If you meant that the. To be prepared for the puppy beneath. A shiny new me at their own the united way. One of the myths about mao is that he was an implacable enemy of the capitalist west. Shanghai today is a prosperous International City still run by the communists at least in my. When i was last in china more than a generation ago the loudest noise was the tinkling of bicycle bells now just the streets were dark the universities were closed the chaos of the cultural revolution had given way to a great silence where exhausted was the freest comment. Coming back the change was barely comprehensible. Here in shanghai the freedom bears no comparison yes there are issues with human rights especially the right to speak against the state and challenge its power since i was last here millions of people of been lifted out of poverty many of them into an entirely new middle class this is still barely understood in the west or should there be wilfully misunderstood the truth is that china has matched america cern great game of capitalism and that is one forgivable. One measure of chinas new capitalism is that a run ritualised this league table of chinas mega rich has published by rupert hogan warthe an old attorney and his chinese name as her run hes received many awards including chinas man of the year this year 2015 its probably been the most extraordinary year of Wealth Creation in the history of china again you know ive been doing this little 1516 years ive never seen a year late 2015 you know it normally for 200000000. 00 pounds or 300000000. 00 we find say by 800000. 00 people this year 2015 its doubled theyll be more dollar billionaires nobody in china than in the u. S. So the u. S. Up until now has been the leader in terms of business. Even the most successful business tycoons in the world. China 2015 with their take in the us said amazing. Modern china is full of telling irony is not released this museum that was once the house where mounties comrie secretly founded the communist party of china in 1921. Today it stands in the heart of an exclusive fairy capitalist shopping district. When you leave the shrine to chinas great revolution youre confronted by a surreal spectacle for right outside where the Chinese Communist party was born other very symbols of capitalism Starbucks Apple cart here. And down there perhaps the free market the greatest triumph bottled water that ensures you live beyond costing 6 pounds for a small bottle in my hotel. Now spin and as to if he was here im not so sure Hidden History is always a key to the truth 5 years before his great communist revolution in 149 mts sent this secret message to washington china must industrialize wrote. This can only be done by Free Enterprise chinese and american interests fit together economically and politically america need not fear that we will not be cooperative we cannot risk crossing america we cannot risk any conflict. Mal received no reply. Nothing has changed. Miles say tongue was looking to be a friend with the United States from the beginning miles says i will go meet Franklin Roosevelt in the white house moll reaches out 950. 00 to harry truman he reaches out to Dwight Eisenhower his hand was tossed away. This opportunity that might of changed history prevented was saved countless lives was lost because the truth of miles of the true was was denied in the washington of the 1950 s. State to pop and officials who had carried maos messages were condemned done justly as communist traitors. Everybody who knew my who spoke chinese was gone in the 1950 s. The state department had no employees who spoke cheney its resulted in us not having relations with the number one most populous country in the world in 1979 this man. Became chinas paramount leda he said socialism does not mean shit poverty. This was code for the most radical reform since miles revolution. The return of capitalism to china but this time controlled by the communist party. To be riches glorious dame was reported as saying. America was now threatened by the emergence of a vast image of itself. This is one of the many very exclusive gated communities in shanghai where an apartment is one of the prices of the new communism. I had a range to see professor zion way way a close aide to the late things out paying the man who changed china. Though in. Really extremely. Long term visionary the leader always exceed the long turn Strategic Vision for his country for his people that this to you for the past you know theyre true this is really a tradition from chinas long history you look at even like mao he said we should suppose you could. Supply. So that continues to this that the. Of actually or many chinese have problems with the west the media is this theory about china if you. Contend with fear it hypes you missed so many things you know if b. B. C. Broadcast something they are happy to always mention this comment is to dictatorship this autocracy not actually with this label you cannot understand this china as it is but if you watch b. B. C. C. N. N. Or read economist and try to understand china it will be a failure its impossible. Multiple parties fight for political power and everyone voting on them is the only path to salvation for the long suffering thats. A shanghai entrepreneur educated in america and typical of a new confident outspoken Political Class in china there are a lot of problems but at the moment the chinese the party state has. An extraordinary ability to change me i make the joke. In america you can change Political Parties but you cant change policies. In china you cannot change the party but you can change policies. So in a 65 or 66 years china is being run by one single party yet. The political changes that have taken place in china in the past 66 years have been wider and broader and greater than probably any other major country in modern memory so in that time china seems to be communist separate will say well china is a market economy and survive a market economy but it is not a capitalist country heres why there is no way a group of billionaires could control the politburo. The owners control american policy making. So in china you have a vibrant market economy but capital does not rise above Political Authority capital is not does not have in trying rights in America Capital the interest of capital and capital itself has risen above the name of the american nation the Political Authority cannot check the power of capital and thats why america is a catalyst country but china is not this is the ironic title of a bestselling book by zhang leisure a journalist and critic who lives in beijing. Many americans imagine that the Chinese People live miserable repressed her life these no freedom must have a. Thats not quite sure if you toss speak to many ordinary Chinese People they will tell you they feel their life i quite free some 500000000 people being lifted out of poverty and some would say probably 600000000 people thats a great achievement. For many ready americans the yellow peril has never left and i think of the theres the fear about china of course theres the fear of china as rep it rise but its also has a lot to do. With chinas. The label as communists and states china subject of some modest compare where their weight theyre not trying to run the world theyre not even trying to run asia pacific i think they want to keep america from dominating the asia pacific so they have what they believe is their rightful place in asia pacific because it also was asian law history and their size so their objectives are really modest compared with their capacity. The wealth for new wealth in china often so this is this is the product of self made entrepreneur skill but its also the product of the exploitation of people at the bottom what are known in china as migrants but theyre not really migrants so. If you really. Go to port to this my woodwork us you will find quite surprisingly. Over the past 5 to 70 years they have experienced. Greater increase there in the social groups china not the car side. But china is a class society. These are the homes of Migrant Workers people who build and service the new china. Here its not uncommon for 3 families to share one tiny flat. You know you would get a socialist country wheezy quality but unfortunately since the reform has started china has become one of the most unequal societies in the words the income gap is widening governments i feel have retreated some of the responsibility left the markets to takeover by the market has not always treat women kindly. Private companies they would just briefly is too high and challenged bearing age women and sometimes when women become pregnant they were thanking them because they dont want to pay their matelote leave and in fact income gap has grown much bigger between men and women. Your old boss funk presided over the bloodshed and tear them square what would you say to the survivors of Tiananmen Square because so many of those did fight for what they saw as Democratic Change in china. In 1809 there were 2 Political Forces one was those reprise any by the Chinese Students their hero was. Off who happen to be in their slogan was silly unions today chinas to more so the idea was political reform 1st other reforms 2nd otherwise china will be hopeless and dense messy which opposite he saw. It now he saw china must have economic reform 1st other reforms 2nd this priority must be set clear. Konami is the front line of a beckoning war with china we cant continue to allow china to rape our country and thats what theyre doing there never have been 2 countries more into dependent on each other then china and the us in history theres like a total disconnect with the changing world you have a giant rising power in this case china. Why would you expect the giant Pricing Power to not want to have more control over its test or does a cent. What is that whats the purpose i mean where are we going to stop this process before it starts a war. And then if the war starts where does that end. If you are in beijing looking out the Pacific Ocean youd see American Warships when myth was that somehow time is aiming to replace america and around the world well the chinese are not that stupid things guys want to dominate a huge chunk of the planet this sounds like a preparation for our 1st president George Washington said if you want peace prepare for war the coming war on china part 2 on a just.
