From the gorgeous fireworks, the grand parties, the military aircraft performances, the 100,000 peace doves flying in Tiananmen Square, and the “Sing a Song to the Party” flash mobs held across the country, it’s evident the recent centennial celebration of the Communist Party of China was astonishing in its extravagance. It’s obvious that such a grand spectacle all comes from money. According to a calculation based on information released by the CCP media, the party celebration spent over 2.22 billion USD.
