"Four Modernizations" is considered the main driving
force by Communist China that can strengthen the nation's
power, and further to enable this country to walk forward
together with advanced European countries and the USA. The
government of Communist China has scheduled a two-stage plan
for the next twenty years: In the first stage, it is
planning to adjust the national economy, and to train

the economic development of the 90s. In the second stage, it

kinds of education systems are closely correlated to the

promote the development of science and education through
every kind of channel. " C I ] This statement Is the fundamental
understanding and policy, In this field, of Communist China.
In the speech to the Twelfth Party Congress of the
Communist Party of China, Hu Yaobang gave education the same
priority as agriculture, energy, and transportation; they
are all strategically important In economic development.
Education is the weakest among these three strategic areas.
This fact is even more prominent at a time when Communist
China is endeavoring to push science and technology forward.
More soecifically, the resistance and difficulties of "Four
Modernization" mainly come from people. This includes
oeoole's acceotance of the concept of the importance of
knowledge, the quality of education, the distribution of
educated manpower, the training and use of talents, etc. All
these problems are closely related to education. With the
elapse of time, such problems will become more serious. This
paper will analyze the intelligence investment of Communist
China regaraing to these problems.
