The Reincarnation of History
-- Wei Jingsheng
Since it is easy to violate taboos of the Chinese leaders when filming modern TV dramas, and no one knows what the taboos exactly are, dramas in old time costumes, or what Mr. Yuan Tengfei called dramas pretending to be about the old times, are very popular. This has popularized a lot of historical knowledge about China. Although they are mixed with truth and falsehood, they are slightly better than the old dramas on the traditional Chinese stage. They more or less help people know a little about Chinese history. Many friends have thus questioned why there are so many similarities between the present and history? Isn't this reincarnation?
The most similar story is probably that of Emperor Chongzhen at the end of the Ming Dynasty. The corruption of officials of the Ming Dynasty officials was no less than that of any other dynasty. The elite class hid the silver from corruption in their cellars and hometowns. The amount was so large that the emperor's court had no money to pay wages, so it had to lay off employees. Thus Li Zicheng and other laid-off officials became the backbone of the peasant uprising, and their momentum was so great that the emperor's rule was shaken. At this time, a eunuch party emerged, and they snatched back a lot of silver from the cellars of the elite officials, maintaining the operation of the Ming Dynasty.
When the young emperor came to power, in order to win over the elite class and consolidate his rule he eliminated the eunuch group and allowed the elite bureaucrats to continue to be corrupt. As a result, the court continued to be unable to pay wages, the people were starving everywhere, the momentum of the rebellion expanded several times, and the situation on the border took a sharp turn for the worse. In the end, the young emperor had to find a crooked tree on the Coal Hill to hang himself, and the Ming Dynasty thus perished.
The current emperor Xi followed this script by removed Eunuch Wang (Qishan) in order to please the elite bureaucratic class. Fortunately, Xi didn't take Wang's head, but just let him go home under house arrest to read books, play cards, and live a fairy-like life. Corrupt officials and profiteers can continue to exploit the people in the open and continue to widen the gap between the rich and the poor in China. This situation is exactly the same as in the late Ming Dynasty. The only difference is that one doesn't have to put his silver in the cellar and wait for the peasant army to dig it out, but instead send it directly to foreign banks, which is both safe and fast.
The problem is that Emperor Xi is not a real emperor after all, and his authority is not at the level of Emperor Mao (Zedong). Simply removing Eunuch Wang is not enough to eliminate the dissatisfaction of the ruling elites. Xi has no way but to continue meeting the wishes of the corruptive officials and profiteers, such as cashing out their assets in real estate and stock markets in China to facilitate the transfer of their assets to banks and real estate in the foreign countries. Thus inflation is created, taking money out of the pockets of ordinary Chinese, and putting it in the Chinese real estate and stock markets, and letting these officials and profiteers cash it out and transfer their assets.
When the money is no longer enough, what should be done? Now various funds are targeted and even pension funds are required to be invested in the Chinese stock market to facilitate the transfer of assets by big officials and profiteers. The Chinese pension funds are already stretched to the limit. Many experts have called for an increase in pension funds, otherwise they will not be able to cope with the aging climax in China. Now that funds are withdrawn from there, how can the average Chinese survive?
But this is not a problem in Xi Jinping's eyes. And it is not a problem either in the eyes of the elite bureaucrats who have begun to run away from China. That is because they have always only cared about themselves, not the country and the Chinese people. It doesn't matter whether you ignorant Chinese people die or not, as long as our wives and children live a life of luxury in the United States. "Go away and have fun inside of China," this is their true face of "serving the people".
This mentality of being immersed in fantasy is very similar to Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. Coupled with the modern flatterers, the Internet in China is full of so-and-so being scared and so-and-so kneeling down (to the CCP). Today is "the sixth generation of fighter jets", tomorrow "it will be the seventh generation for China". The whole world is no longer an opponent strong enough for China. Coupling with starting a few more wars, all internal conflicts will be resolved. Isn't this Emperor Sui Yang back then? The surrounding small countries can be bullied at will. "I have already wiped out all the pests and am invincible". However, at the end, it is forgotten that Emperor Sui Yang was defeated in his conquest of Korea.
It's not a pity that Emperor Sui Yang fell at the end. However, the people of the whole country suffered with him. Fortunately, the average Chinese in ancient times dared to rebel, and after countless deaths and injuries, they created a new life. Also fortunately, the elites in ancient times dared to rebel and led the people to replace the tyrants. Nevertheless, Xi Jinping has become modernized and bribed the grassroots civil servants with high salaries. It is estimated that no one will follow the people to rebel. Also, there is no threat from the cavalry from Manchuria, so it seemed that Xi could have a good ending. Such a good wish was also the driving force that pushed Emperor Sui Yang to his demise.

历史的轮回
-- 魏京生
由于拍摄现代影视剧容易犯忌讳，而且谁也不知道什么是谁的忌讳，所以古装剧，或者像袁腾飞先生说的装古剧，就非常流行。这下子大家普及了很多历史知识。虽然真假掺着来，但比传统戏台上的装古剧要稍微好一些。大差不差，大家也略微知道些历史了。很多朋友就发现，怎么现在和历史有那么多一样的地方呢？这不就是轮回吗？
最像的，恐怕就是明朝末年的崇祯朝了。明朝的官员们腐败贪污不亚于任何朝代。精英阶层把贪腐来的银两藏到地窖和老家，数量之大导致朝廷没钱发工资，只好裁员。于是李自成等等被裁官吏就成了农民起义的中坚力量，声势之大导致统治动摇。这时候出了个太监党，从精英官吏们的地窖里抢回来不少银子，维持了大明王朝的运转。
小皇帝刚上台，为了笼络精英阶级巩固他的统治，消灭了太监集团，放任了精英官僚们继续贪腐。于是朝廷继续发不出工资，老百姓遍地饿殍，造反的声势几次扩大，边疆的形势也急转直下。小皇帝最后只好在煤山上找了一棵歪脖子树，大明朝就此灭亡。
现在的小习皇帝也为了讨好精英官僚阶级，下架了王公公。还好没要了他的脑袋，只不过回家软禁。看看书，打打牌，过着神仙的日子。贪官奸商们可以放开手继续盘剥百姓，继续扩大贫富差距，情况和明朝末年一样一样的。差别只是不用把银子放地窖里，等着农民军来起窑了。直接送到外国银行里，既安全，又快捷。
问题就出在小习皇帝毕竟不是真皇帝，他的权威也不是毛皇帝的水平。仅仅下架了王公公，还不足以消除统治精英们的不满。没办法，还得继续满足大家的愿望，例如把在楼市股市里的财产变现，方便大家转移财产到国外银行和房地产上去。于是就搞通货膨胀，从老百姓兜里掏钱，放到楼市股市里去任凭大家变现，转移财产。
这些钱还不够，怎么办？于是就盯上了各种基金，甚至盯上了养老基金，要求他们投资到股市，方便大户们转移资产。这养老基金本来就捉襟见肘，很多专家都呼吁要增加养老基金，否则无法应付中国的老龄化高潮。现在还要从这里边抽逃资金，中国人还怎么活下去呢？
但在习近平看来这不是问题，那帮开始润出去的精英官僚看来也不是问题。因为他们从来就只管自己，无所谓国家和人民。你们愚昧的韭菜们死不死关我们什么事儿，只要我们老婆孩子在美国花天酒地就够了。你们在中国自己玩儿去吧。这就是"为人民服务"的嘴脸。
这种沉浸在幻梦里的心态，倒很像隋炀帝。再加上现代化的马屁精，满网络都是谁谁谁吓尿了，谁谁又下跪了。今天是第六代战斗机，明天就第七代了。全世界都已经不是对手，再发动几场战争，什么内部矛盾也就全都化解了。这不就是当年的隋炀帝吗？周边的小国随便欺负，我已经扫除一切害人虫，全无敌了。就忘了隋炀帝就败在征高丽上边了。
隋炀帝倒台了不可惜，全国老百姓跟着倒霉。好在古代的韭菜还敢造反，死伤无数后再造了新的生活。也好在古代的精英们还敢造反，带领老百姓取代了昏君。但是小习毕竟现代化了，高薪收买了底层公务员，估计没人跟着老百姓造反了。外边也没有满清铁骑的威胁，看来小习可以得一个善终了。这样美好的愿望也是推动隋炀帝走向灭亡的动力。
