  1. It was the great Premier, Zhou En Lai, Deng Xiao Ping's mentor, whom first proposed in 1963 the "4 Modernizations" in agriculture, industry, defense + science/technology. Zhou was stymied by Mao + his poorly planned/organized Great Leap Backward + his Cultural Annihilation. Zhou again brought up the Modernizations, shortly before his death. It was only after Mao was finally gone, and after defeating the Gang of 4, that Deng was able to start reforms + the modernization of China.
