在中共早期历史上,“二十八个半布尔什维克”之说相当流行。随着历史的大幕揭开,人们逐渐弄明白了它的来龙去脉。但对其中所谓“半个人物”仍感到费解。不久前出版的《杨尚昆回忆录》向世人洞开一角,透露了这“半个人物”就是后来担任中国外交部副部长的徐以新。 In the early history of the CPC, the saying of “twenty-eight and a half Bolsheviks” was quite popular. As the curtain of history unfolded, people gradually figured out its ins and outs. However, I still find it hard to understand the so-called “half-personality”. The memoir of Yang Shangkun, published not long ago, opened the door to the world and revealed that this “half personality” was Xu Yixin who later served as the vice minister of the Chinese Foreign Ministry.
