How did the cultural revolution contribute to the rise of deng xiaoping after Mao Zedongs death

The Cultural Revolution is directly related to the failure of the Great Leap Forward (or Great Leap Forward), an economic plan developed by Mao Zedong, then president of China, during the 1950s. promote the industrialization of China, since the country at that time still had a very incipient industry. During this plan, Mao promoted the creation of a series of communes and had peasants join them to produce iron and steel for Chinese industry. These peasants were forced to abandon the production of agricultural items to concentrate on metallurgy. The transfer of millions of workers to this activity ended up deregulating the Chinese economy. The result of this was disastrous and China's agricultural production plummeted, with that, the country was forced to buy food from Western nations, to mitigate these effects. As a result of the Great Leap in the early 1960s, China faced the Great Famine, and historians say that 20 million to 40 million people died from lack of food in the country.
