There were also many wonderful translations of the text, but there was no complete translation for domestic insight and aspirations. read. In 1920, Chen Wangdao worked hard, "spent five times the usual translation book", and added a table formed by two benches and a wooden board. According to the Japanese version and English version, the Communist Manifesto was completely translated into Chinese.
