How did Mao Zendong's get the Communist's to seek support among the large peasant mass instead of the small urban working class?

Mao Ze Dong spread communism around China. The large peasant mass was fed up with Jiang Jie Shi (Chiang Kai Shek), as he was being greedy and unfair. Chiang Kai Shek only cared about the rich, and was biased. Mao Ze Dong offered a better alternative, and he was from the same background. He was promising and dedicated. The reason why the Communists won is because the peasant population overpowered the rich, and they were so driven. Then Chiang Kai Shek fled to Taiwan, with nowhere else to go. Chiang Kai Shek always planned to conquer mainland China again, but he never succeeded. His son was supposed to fulfill his dying wishes, but he was unable to, as well.

Discuss the reasons why Mao Zedong and his government formed the policy of The Great Leap Forward Follow this with explaining why the program failed?

The Great Leap Forward of the People's Republic of China (PRC) was an economic and social campaign of the Communist Party of China (CPC), reflected in planning decisions from 1958 to 1961, which aimed to use China's vast population to rapidly transform the country from an agrarian economy into a modern communist society through the process of rapid industrialization and collectivization. Mao Zedong led the campaign based on the Theory of Productive Forces, and intensified it after being informed of the impending disaster from grain shortages.

Chief changes in the lives of rural Chinese included the introduction of a mandatory process of agricultural collectivization, which was introduced incrementally. Private farming was prohibited, and those engaged in it were labeled as counter revolutionaries and persecuted. Restrictions on rural people were enforced through public struggle sessions, and social pressure, although people also experienced forced labor.[1] Rural industrialization, officially a priority of the campaign, saw "its development … aborted by the mistakes of the Great Leap Forward."[2]

The Great Leap ended in catastrophe, resulting in tens of millions of excess deaths.[3] Estimates of the death toll range from 18 million to 45 million,with estimates by demographic specialists ranging from 18 million to 32.5 million. Historian Frank Dikötter asserts that "coercion, terror, and systematic violence were the very foundation of the Great Leap Forward" and it "motivated one of the most deadly mass killings of human history."

The years of the Great Leap Forward in fact saw economic regression, with 1958 through 1961 being the only years between 1953 and 1983 in which China's economy saw negative growth. Political economist Dwight Perkins argues, "enormous amounts of investment produced only modest increases in production or none at all. … In short, the Great Leap was a very expensive disaster."[7]
