Abstract

On the eve of the May 4th movement, early Marxists such as Duxiu Chen, Zedong Mao, Daiying Yun, Hesen Cai and Da Li did not fully contact and deeply understand the theory and basic principles of Marx's scientific socialism. They were unable to surpass anarchic communism and Utopian socialism and directly believe in Marx's scientific socialism. But in the complex international and domestic environment, they could distinguish anarchism with the spirit of practice in traditional Chinese culture, and finally became the believer and disseminator of Marxism, which is worthy of affirmation by later generations
