Fulton Books author Maggie Zheng, a graduate of UW-Madison with a PhD in Science, has completed her most recent book "From Capitalism to Socialism toward Communism a.k.a Globalism": a fascinating family history that transcends through three different generations. It is an honest depiction of the social changes that the communists have brought into China since the downfall of the Qing Dynasty in the 1920s. Here, the author bravely showed the role of the communists in the drastic social changes that Chinese people have gone through over the course of a century.
"For Helen's family, the 1920s were turbulent but full of hope. A revolution overthrew the Qing Dynasty. China entered the Golden Age of Capitalism. Helen's uncle founded a bank when he and Helen's father were in their thirties. They worked and expanded the business. After fifteen years, it became one of China's largest private banks. While the banking business was booming, the Japanese invaded China. It interrupted the bank's development. Helen's father died.
"Helen and her siblings received Western education in their teenage years. She met her love, George, while studying in the wartime college. George and his brothers pursued the idea of 'industry saving China.' They studied science and technology in the US and returned to China. The reality shattered those young people's good wishes. After 1949, they suffered abuse in various movements. Their ties to the US became a problem. The communists sent Helen's brothers to jail and labor camps. The inhuman treatment took their lives.
"When Mao's Cultural Revolution began, Helen's children were in high school. They witnessed chaos and violence. The communists sent them to remote farms. One of Helen's daughters died there. At first, the reforms in China inspired Helen's children. They went overseas in the 1980s and tried to do their part to change China. Yet China had been a country ruled by the communists. The wealth gap grew year after year. People could lose their properties at any time. In their everyday life they faced frustrations and helplessness. Nevertheless, the communists had ambitions to take over the entire world.
"This memoir involves many historical and current events. It describes how the communists seized control and managed the country. The author records urban-life evolutions in China. The Russian refugees' experience in Shanghai was one of them. This book also records the development of the Chinese energy industry in recent years."
