Answer:
The correct answers are B and C. After Mao Zedong's death, Deng Xiaoping brought about economic reform in China by encouraging the production of raw materials such as iron and steel and providing industrial workers with incentives; and by encouraging students to travel abroad to revive China’s education system, which had suffered during Mao's regime.
Explanation:
Deng Xiaoping launched his Four Modernizations program in 1978. He asserted himself at the top of the party and the government after the death of Mao Zedong in September 1976. He gave birth to a period of ideological, political, economic and social reforms and in this context he placed the reform, intended to deal with four fields: agriculture, science and technology, industry and national defense.
The project proposal was first launched in 1964 by Hu Yaobang and again by Hua Guofeng and Zhou Enlai in 1975. After the final launch, which took place in December 1978, the project was revised and the will was expressed for the first time to "build a socialist country with a high degree of civilization and democracy by 2000".
The four modernizations were designed to make China one of the greatest economic powers since the 21st century and from this point of view totally achieved their goal. The People's Republic of China, although heading towards economic self-sufficiency, has decided to accelerate the modernization process by increasing the volume of foreign trade, opening its markets to Japan and the West. The growth, driven by the increase in exports, allowed the Chinese to advance financially through foreign investments, a more open market, access to advanced technologies and increased managerial skills.
