It is rumored that the commanders of the various theater commands and the commanders of the various army groups all refused to participate. At the August 1st reception hosted by the Ministry of National Defense of the People's Republic of China, more than 30 retired senior generals, including General Liu Yuan and General Zhang Haiyang, refused to attend. Because a large number of invited personnel did not attend, the Central Military Commission had no choice but to draw a large number of officers with the ranks of senior colonel and colonel from its headquarters to make up the numbers and display ostentation. At the reception,Each table had eight people, and at each table sat a young military officer sitting upright. It is rumored that this was designed and arranged by Cai Qi, a member of the Politburo Standing Committee, and that these young officers were actually agents of the Chinese Ministry of State Security in disguise, tasked with monitoring and eavesdropping on the conversations of the other seven people at the tables. Did they exchange phone numbers?
