On October 1, 1949 Mao Zedong held a victory celebration parade in Tian'amen Square and announced to the world the creation of a People's Republic of China. China had awakened, and the decades since have given truth to Napoleon's prophetic words. Interestingly, very few people actually understood Mao's speech, and only one sentence has ever been translated and synched to audio - until now. October 1949 is a definitive account of how Mao orchestrated and carried out this spectacular parade, all the while facing threats of an on-going civil war. Go behind the scenes of this parade with filmmaker Peter Du Cane as he unearths rare archive footage and pieces together the remainder of this historic speech and makes it whole for the first time ever.

I can understand most of Mao's speech. My hometown is about 300 miles away from Mao's. Compared to 70 years ago, Chinese people are not good at understanding speech with strong local accent.

China is full of illusion. You see Wuxia dramas. heroes fight each other flying. their Qigong can destroy a house.. it's the first illusion. the actors travel from Tayli / Dali kingdom far up to the Liao or Jin empire in the north, or western Xia kingdom, just within days. From islands in the China sea to Xi'an takes only several days. Those are second illusion. And everywhere people speak Mandarin, or even Cantonese for Wuxia movies produced in 1970s and 1980s. The heroes could read Chinese characters so easily.. That's the third illusion. Now the communist create many other illusions...

Much respect for China successfully fending of western imperialism, a profoundly difficult achievement. Look at the result of the other major regions that failed in this regard (Africa, India, even aboriginal Australia, etc). Respect to Mao and vast bulk of the ordinary population for protecting China from outside interference. Mao also did the forgotten but crucial work of rural health development programmes saving 100 million lives, and bringing literacy from 15% to 90% by the time Mao retired. Life expectance from 45 to 70. This liberation from Western interference set the conditions to make their industrialisation that followed, and continued improvements to their public's life, being possible.

Just a few years ago, the Chinese were literally charging Japanese machine guns and tanks with little more than swords, just fighting tooth and nail in the most literal sense to survive a foreign occupation. Most of the population have never seen a Tank or a Plane until a Japanese machine rolled through or over their homes and families. And suddenly, they have their own army, ever soldier armed with a rifle. They have tanks. And they think they have an air force and navy, which were really works in progress but a good show.
