Artillery headquarters is the title of a big character newspaper posted by Mao Zedong in Zhongnanhai compound on August 5, 1966. The full text of the title is "artillery headquarters - my big character newspaper". Although Mao Zedong did not name his name in this big character newspaper, under the historical conditions at that time, it is self-evident that he shelled Liu Shaoqi, then president of the people's Republic of China, and Deng Xiaoping, general secretary of the Secretariat of the CPC Central Committee, mainly Liu Shaoqi.
The posting of this big character newspaper marks the intensification and openness of the contradictions and conflicts between Mao Zedong and Liu Shaoqi. On August 7, the Eleventh Plenary Session of the Eighth Central Committee of the Communist Party of China printed and distributed "bombarding the headquarters - a big character newspaper of mine" written by Mao Zedong. The big character newspaper actually declared that Mao Zedong's goal was to "bombard" Liu Shaoqi and Deng Xiaoping, the "headquarters of the Bourgeoisie".

Posters of this type promoted Maoist ideology throughout Communist China, especially during the Cultural Revolution of the 1960-70's and are now a kitschy and collectible token of a bygone historical era.
The Cultural Revolution, formally the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution, was a social-political movement that took place in the People's Republic of China from 1966 until 1976. Set into motion by Mao Zedong, then Chairman of the Communist Party of China, its stated goal was to preserve 'true' Communist ideology in the country by purging remnants of capitalist and traditional elements from Chinese society, and to re-impose Maoist thought as the dominant ideology within the Party. The Revolution marked the return of Mao Zedong to a position of power after the Great Leap Forward. The movement paralyzed China politically and significantly affected the country economically and socially.
