【新唐人2013年11月07日讯】中共总书记习近平在三中全会召开前夕，突然到湖南湘西、长沙等地视察。不过，习并没有继承中共一般的规定动作，前往韶山“毛泽东故居”拜祭一番。习的“过毛门而不入”，惹起外界关注。请看报导。
11月3号，习近平前往地处武陵山区中心地带的湘西土家族苗族自治州考察扶贫，亲自到田里摘柚子。那里是中国最贫穷地区之一，习走进一家特困户家庭，木屋四壁黝黑，屋里唯一的“电器”是一盏节能灯。
第二天，习近平绕过“韶山”，赶往长沙，先后考察了一家电器集团和“中南大学重金属污染防治技术研究中心”、和一家科技公司。
北京时政观察人士华颇：“他不去毛的老家去参观，就是怕贴上保守的标签。因为过几天就要召开三中全会，他必须谈改革问题，所以他要换上一个改革派的外衣。这时候，要参观毛的故居就不合时宜了。”
北京时政观察人士华颇认为，习近平去贫穷的湘西自治州，是表现他要关注民生﹔去长沙参观，表示他想发展科技，要转变经济发展模式。
香港《苹果日报》指出，中共领导人前往湖南“韶山”，被外界认为是继承中共正统的规定动作，如：1991年3月，江泽民以中共总书记、中央军委主席身份，来到韶山祭毛﹔2003年，胡锦涛接任国家主席不久，也特地前往“韶山”拜祭。
《苹果》揭示，习仲勋、习近平两父子也是对韶山“感情深厚”。上世纪80年代改革开放初期，“非毛化”抬头，习仲勋却带头上“韶山”捍卫毛泽东。有资料显示，习近平曾经三次上“韶山”拜毛，最近一次是2011年3月，他的身份是政治局常委、国家副主席。
今年7月，习近平到湖北视察，连夜参观了毛在武汉的故居。习还特意叮嘱湖北省委书记等人说：“今年是毛主席诞辰120周年，一定要把毛主席故居办成爱国主义和革命传统教育基地。”
实际上，习仲勋差一点被毛泽东以“利用小说进行反党”这种最奇异的罪名整死，习近平15岁就被下放到农村，并在那里呆了近7年。
中国学者、国务院农村发展研究中心前研究员姚监复对《德国之声》指出，透过习近平在2011年参与编写的《中国共产党历史》第二卷中，对“三大改造、反右派、文革中经济发展”的肯定，及今年1月提出的“两个不能否定”等可以佐证，习近平的路线，和中共前重庆市委书记薄熙来的路线，是一个路线，都是“毛泽东路线”。
外界指出，习近平这次出人意料的“过毛门而不入”应属于权宜之计。因为这段时间，他将自由派整得够惨，没有必要再去“韶山”讨好左派了。
中共当局近几个月以来，抓捕异见人士、记者，打压媒体等，都是近年所罕见。外媒还披露，中共最近号召“占领新媒体阵地”、批判“来自西方的普世价值观”等，都与习近平有关。
不过，也有评论认为，习近平这次去湖南，与他急于整肃前中共中央政法委书记周永康，和他控制的政法委系统有关。
时事评论员夏小强表示，每当中国将发生国际聚焦的大事前刻，湖南政法委就会爆出重大恶性事件：像李旺阳被杀、上访妈妈唐慧的被劳教、民营企业家曾成杰被突然执行死刑，还有最近的《新快报》事件等。
时事评论员夏小强：“根本的原因是，（《新快报》记者）陈永洲揭发了中联重科（公司）的财务黑幕，曝光了湖南政法委系统、周永康的嫡系，他们巨大贪腐的黑幕。”
夏小强认为，习近平去湖南的目地，就是解决周永康嫡系控制的政法系统。
10月31号，4架进出长沙的航班，又遇到了“诈弹”威胁。看来，湖南问题还真不一般。

Xi Jinping Visits Hunan But Shuns Mao’s Hometown?
While the Third Plenary is approaching, CCP leader Xi Jinping
pays a sudden visit to Hunan and Changsha.
Contrary to former leaders’ routine, Xi skips Mao Zedong’s
former residence, located in Shaoshan, Hunan.
Much speculation is going on and the following is our coverage.
November 3, Xi Jinping visited Tujia and Miao Autonomous
Prefecture located in Wuling Mountain of Hunan.
Xi went about and personally picked a pomelo in the field.
In this poorest region, one of many in China, Xi went into a
wooden home. The only electric item in the household is an
energy-saving lamp.
The next day, Xi Jinping bypassed Shaoshan and rushed to
Changsha, where he visited an electronic group, a pollution
control Research Center at Central South University, and
a technology company.
Hua Po, a Beijing political commentator: “He did not visit Mao’s
former residence for fear of being labeled a conservative.
In the Third Plenum he’ll be talking about reform which
requires him to cloak on as a reformist.
Visiting Mao’s former residence at this point would not be
appropriate."
Commentator Hua Po believes Xi Jinping’s visit to the poor
area is to show he cares about their livelihood, and his visit to
Changsha indicates his desire to develop technology for
economic transformation.
Hong Kong media Apple Daily reported that a visit to Shaoshan,
Hunan has been an inherent orthodox of the CCP leaders.
In March 1991, Jiang Zemin was there to pay tribute to Mao
Zedong as General Secretary of the CCP and Chairman of the
Central Military Commission;
2003, Hu Jintao also specifically visited Shaoshan shortly after
he became the Chinese President.
Apple Daily: Xi Jinping revealed his and his father’s deep
feelings for Shaoshan.
In the 1980s when reform and opening up were first initiated,
the non-Maoist rose, Xi Zhongxun actually defended Mao
Zedong by visiting Shaoshan three times to pay tribute to Mao.
His last visit was when he was the Politburo Standing
Committee & Vice-Chairman of the National People’s Congress.
In July this year, during Xi Jinping’s visit to Hubei Province,
Xi visited Mao’s former residence in Wuhan.
He specifically gave his instruction to Hubei provincial
party secretary:
“This year marks the 120th anniversary of Chairman Mao.
Mao’s former residence must become the
Patriotic Education and revolutionary Education Base."
In fact, Xi Jinping almost died in the name of “anti-CCP via
novels" by Mao Zedong.
At the age of 15, Xi was sent to the countryside,
where he stayed for nearly 7 years.
Yao Jianfu, former researcher of Rural Development Research
Center of the State Council told Deutsche Welle that:
Xi Jinping took part in the writing of the second volume of the
“Chinese Communist Party history" in 2011.
His affirmative recognition of the “three major reforms,
anti-rightist, economic development during the Cultural
Revolution" and his talk about “two no-denying" of the CCP
history can be corroborated that,
both Xi Jinping and the former Chongqing Party
Secretary Bo Xilai take the same political route, i.e.,
the Maoist route."
Xi Jinping’s unexpected by-pass of Mao’s former residence
is just an expediency.
He has done his job to regulate the liberals as the new leader,
he does not have to please the leftist by visiting Shaoshan
at this point.
Recently, the arresting and suppression of dissidents,
reporters, and the media have intensified to the highest
extent in recent years.
Foreign media have revealed that the CCP’s propaganda to
“occupy the new media battlefield" and “criticize Western
universal values" are associated with Xi Jinping.
However, there are also comments that Xi’s trip to Hunan
concerns his desire to purge Zhou Yongkang and his allies
in the Politics and Law Committee.
Political commentator Xia Xiaoqiang explains that whenever
there is an event of international focus in China, fatal incidents
would occur in Hunan Politics and Law Committee,
such as Li Wangyang was killed, petitioner Tang Hui was sent
to the labor camp, private entrepreneur Zheng Chengjie are
suddenly executed by death penalty, as well as the recent
New Express incident.
Xia Xiaoqiang, Political commentator: “The fundamental
reason is that Chen Yongzhou (New Express reporter) exposed
the financial secrets of the Zoomlion (company), and the massive
corruption involving the Politics and Law Committee of Hunan
and Zhou Yongkang and his descendant."
Xia Xiaoqiang believes Xi Jinping’s purpose was to resolve
Hunan political and law system controlled by Zhou Yongkang.
October 31, hoax bombs threat took place in four airplanes
in Changsha route. It seems Hunan really has some issues.
