Among the eighteen base areas nationwide, the work that is the worst, most disorderly, and least on track is fiscal and economic work. Many important tasks have drawn lessons from the Soviet period, yet fiscal and economic work alone has so far failed to learn from past lessons. If prompt attention is not given, it will inevitably suffer the calamity of bankruptcy. It was further pointed out: "Due to internal and external pressures forcing the capitulationist and resistance factions within the Kuomintang into a process of intense struggle and differentiation, the three orientations of the Kuomintang (Chiang Kai-shek)—pro-Soviet, cooperation with the Communist Party, and initial political reforms—seem already unavoidable. Unified capitulation and unified 'suppression of the Communists' have become impossible. We are vigorously promoting the realization of these three matters." In the future, the united front should be developed more extensively, with the central focus being to win over the two million troops of the Kuomintang government.
