At the beginning of the 20th century, with the complete establishment of the ruling order in China's semi-colonial and semi-feudal society, the Qing government became a "foreigner's court" and the bourgeois revolutionary movement became the mainstream of China's historical development.

However, Kang Youwei and Liang Qichao, who were exiled overseas at that time, were confused by the false constitutionalism of the Qing government, and continued to advocate reform, resist the rising revolutionary movement and viciously attack the revolutionaries. This kind of perversion is bound to be strongly countered by the bourgeois revolutionaries represented by Sun Yat-sen and Zhang.
