A "1970 Plan for National Economy" by the State Council and a report to intensify "preparedness against war" by the Central Military Commission were adopted. Chen Boda proposed to appoint a State President, but Mao Zedong opposed. According to the official CCP historiography, Lin Biao attempted a later aborted "coup" during this meeting.
