五四以后先进知识分子之所以选择马克思主义,是因为他们认为:要代表先进生产力的发展要求,解放和发展中国的生产力,实现中国的工业化,必须选择马克思主义;要代表先进文化的前进方向,建设中华民族的新文化,必须选择马克思主义;要代表最广大人民的根本利益,指引中国人民实现民族的独立、人民的解放和幸福,必须选择马克思主义。 After the May Fourth Movement, advanced intellectuals chose Marxism because they believed that in order to represent the requirements of the development of advanced productive forces, liberate and develop China’s productive forces and realize China’s industrialization, Marxism must be chosen. To represent the direction of advanced culture, To build a new culture of the Chinese nation, we must choose Marxism. To represent the fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority of the people and guide the Chinese people in their pursuit of national independence, people’s liberation and happiness, we must choose Marxism.
