Synopsis
In 1989, the Cold War came to an end, and the dark clouds of the end of the century enveloped the Japanese islands. Under the outer shell of the bubble economy's false prosperity lies a rotten core of blood-sucking capital, the garrison of U. S. Troops, the rise of the right wing, and the collapse of people's livelihood. The neon lights of Tokyo cannot cover up the wails of the workers at the bottom. The illusory halo of the emperor's system binds the shackles of the entire nation. The CIA on the other side of the ocean controls all the political and economic lifelines of this land, nailing Japan to the vassal position of the US military aircraft carrier in the Pacific. Just when the old era is about to fall and countless disasters have yet to come, Shinya Sato returns with all the memories of 2024. In his previous life, he was the youngest director of the Institute of Japanese History. He devoted himself to studying the rise and fall of the party history for decades, and eventually died of endless overwork. He witnessed Japan's step-by-step decline and destruction amidst the bubble collapse, earthquakes and tsunamis, nuclear disasters, financial crises, and right-wing rampage. In this life, he landed on December 29, 1989, holding a complete file that predicts the future: the Kobe earthquake in 1995, the global financial collapse in 2008, the Fukushima nuclear leak in 11, endless extreme terrorist attacks, economic stagnation that lasted for decades... All national disasters, all revolutionary lessons, all are clear in his mind. He is cold and rational, and does not believe in empty revolutionary romance, but only believes in prediction and hard work. This time, he doesn't want to witness destruction again. He wants to tear apart the shackles of the old world and ignite an eternal red fire in the island country where cherry blossoms bloom. The reborn person who awakened alone gathered five revolutionary aliens dormant in various circles of Japanese power to form a red core group that overturned the old order: Bubo Jingzi, the economic genius of Peking University, used the neoliberal discourse system to deconstruct the capital scam. He fought with the Confucian scholars in the lecture hall and in Congress, and used the ultimate economic logic to prove to the people the inevitable victory of communism. As the second generation of the "Ye Ying" from the largest red family, she has both a political and scholarly temperament, and is the sharpest public opinion and economic blade of the revolution. Hayato Amakusa, the top airborne elite of the Self-Defense Forces, was forced to retire for exposing the dirty secrets of the army. A samurai warrior who abandoned darkness and turned to light, tore up the deformed military-state bushido and reshaped it into the people's war path to protect the people. He was proficient in street fighting, demolition, electronic and psychological operations, and was the most hard-core guerrilla commander of the red armed forces. Rin Kurokawa, a talented civil servant in the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications and a top hacker at MIT, has the backdoor of all the Japanese Internet infrastructure in the 1990s. She understands the nature of the times: the other end of the firewall is the most fragile heart of the state's violent machine. Using codes as weapons, she weaves a red information network covering the entire Japan. Cang Shanji, the legendary fighting sharpshooter of the Metropolitan Police Department, is recognized by the public as the "People's Sheriff". Living within the system, he cares about the people at the bottom, protects the proletarians with his iron-blooded righteousness, lurks deep in the police circles, and becomes the most solid internal barrier for the revolution. When reborn think tanks, economic wizards, special warfare gods, code revolutionaries, and institutional swords gather together, a secret revolution spanning decades officially begins. From the undercurrent surging on the streets of Shibuya to the full rollout of the underground transportation network; from predicting natural disasters and building the prototype of red finance, to catching the torrent of three million unemployment after the bubble burst; from the merger of student alliances and pilots of private communes, to the quiet outbreak of the Internet red revolution. They walk between light and dark: street demonstrations break the dilemma of public opinion, deep penetration breaks down the bureaucracy, technological raids paralyze capital infrastructure, and armed military remonstrances shake the foundation of the Self-Defense Forces. Internally, they purge weak elements within the party, take root at the bottom of the workers and peasants, establish local Soviets everywhere, overthrow conglomerate monopoly, end usury exploitation, and abolish the deformed emperor system; externally, they head-on harden the CIA's Far East layout, smash right-wing riot plots, crack US military satellite surveillance, and counter the Seventh Fleet's nuclear deterrent blockade. Morrison, a living fossil of the Cold War and director of the CIA's Far East, attacked aggressively, using economic aid to coerce military hegemony, supporting far-right forces to disrupt the situation, and trying to completely strangle the Red Flame in the cradle. Riots, infiltration, surprise attacks by public opinion, cyber attacks, urban guerrilla warfare, parliamentary games, nuclear crisis confrontation... From the undercurrent of the underground fire in 1989 to the regime change at the turn of the century; from the dim light of the sickle and hammer lighting up Japan, to the red sunrise breaking over Tokyo Bay. They used their mortal bodies to fight against the three mountains of capital, power, and the old system. After a five-volume epic journey, they overthrew the emperor system that had lasted for thousands of years, ended decades of colonial control by the United States, drafted a new people's constitution, and created a people's Japan belonging to the proletariat with a new system of zero nuclear and zero capital exploitation. When Tokyo Tower lights up in red, when the "Internationale" resounds across the land of the island nation, when the new wind in Akihabara replaces a century-old illness—— This was a Japanese Red Revolution whose beginning no one knew and whose ending shocked the world. The cherry blossoms have fallen, the sickle and hammer hang high; the islands are reborn, and the people are kings. Intention: None
