Although I don’t like the Qing government, I won’t watch the Qing government lose to the Japanese in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894.
In the 21st century, there were people who lost the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895 and 1894-1895-1895-1895-1895-1895-1895-1895-1895-1895-1895-1895-1895-1895-1895-1895-1895-1895-1895-1
It's all nonsense. More than 20,000 unjust souls in the Lushun Massacre should be lined up to spit on some people's faces. This may awaken the already crooked hearts of some people.
Zhang Yanghao said in "Shanpo Yang·Tongguan Ancients": Prosperity is the suffering of the people; destruction is the suffering of the people. This poem is often used to lament the difficulties of people's livelihood and express the noble feelings of worrying about the country and the people. In fact, Li Mu knew that the reason why the people suffer is because the country is not truly prosperous enough. In the 21st century, if you say "the suffering of the people" again, it is nitpicking.
Li Mu could form a Junma Group and lead the Chinese in the United States to become rich, but Li Mu was not sure that all 400 million Chinese people would become rich. All they could do were saints, so Li Mu was not prepared to return to the Qing Empire, so he should let the great people do those great things. Although Li Mu is already a wealthy man in the United States now, Li Mu thought he was still the programmer he used to be, so he was not prepared to return to the Qing Empire to be the father of the nation.
"The Qing Dynasty factory doesn't have to worry. If you lose money, you will lose money. As long as the Qing Dynasty's national strength can be strengthened and the Qing Dynasty can defeat the Japanese." Li Mu has nothing to do with the Qing Empire, but he still has a passion for the Chinese in the Qing Empire, so even if Li Mu loses money, he will support the Qing Empire to kill the Japanese.
The reason is no different. If Japan rises, the harm it will bring to the Chinese is too great. Without the blood transfusion of the Qing Empire, it is impossible for the Japanese to rise. Whether it is the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, the Qing-Japanese War or the War of aggression against China, for Japan, it is all risky behavior similar to gambling on the national destiny. The Japanese are not confident enough, especially when the Sino-Japanese War of 1895, the Japanese government has reached an unsustainable level. If the Qing Empire is a little stronger, the Japanese will definitely lose in the end.
"Don't you hate the Qing Dynasty very much? Why do you need help now?" Chuxue didn't understand Li Mu's behavior. In Chuxue's opinion, this is a standard difference in words and deeds.
"What I hate is the Qing government, not the Chinese from the Qing Dynasty. If the Qing Dynasty goes to war with other countries and loses, the unlucky one will eventually be the Chinese. Therefore, helping the Qing Empire improve its national strength is not a bad thing." Li Mu had a plan, and some things cannot be looked at only on the surface.
If the Qing Empire had always been a stagnant pool, even the "father of the nation" would have no choice. Therefore, if you want to cause a qualitative change in the Qing Empire, you must first let something new in the Qing Empire appear.
With smokeless gunpowder, the Qing Empire would form a new army, and now the formation of an army is inseparable from the Chinese. The "Eight Banners" of the past had disappeared, and the nobles of the Qing Dynasty had been raised into rice insects. A large number of Chinese people joined the new army, and then new ideas would be spread.
This has been proven by history. In another time and space, it was these new troops of the Qing Empire that overthrew the Qing Empire. The founding father played a very little role in this process. If he had changed himself, he would have become the founding father. If he had less talk, he might not have let Yuan Datou succeed, and there would be no future wars.
It is only the 1870s, and it is still early in the 1950s. It is more than 80 years old. Li Mu believes that with his own intervention, the Chinese will definitely not wait 80 years before they can usher in true liberation.
Li Mu will not delay that day, and it is still a little bit to say whether he can live to that day. Li Mu will definitely make the Chinese stand up in his lifetime.
In Li Mu's plan, when these students from Junma Affiliated School grow up, then these children who have received new education will burst out with infinite potential, and then some people who are truly worried about the country and the people will return to the Qing Empire and are ready to do something for the Chinese in the Qing Empire. What Li Mu has to do now is to create conditions for them and not let them face a mess as much as possible, so that the Chinese may suffer less.
It seems impossible to let Chuxue accompany Li Mu on vacation. The little girl finally found a job that proves her value. She is very enthusiastic about work. It would be fine if Li Mu didn't help. It would be unreasonable if she still made trouble.
It is impossible to find Gloria. Gloria's job is equally excellent. She has successfully completed her internship and has become a qualified journalist.
During this process, Li Mu did not help, and even Li Mu instructed Sami Larkin to give Gloria some more tests, allowing Gloria to travel to multiple departments, and Gloria even participated in the preparation of the printing factory.
People with ideals are unstoppable. Gloria is no longer willful and steadily completes every job. All department heads give Gloria excellent comments. They even strive to work in their own department after Gloria becomes a formal employee.
Gloria's performance was so good that Li Mu could not find any fault. The only thing that worried Li Mu was that Gloria was still thinking about becoming a war correspondent. The Montana war was about to end. This time, the Indians were seriously injured. Maybe there would be no war of this scale in the future, which made Gloria very unwilling.
Unwilling to give in, Gloria began to try to look at the world, find areas in the world where war is still going on, and try to become a real war correspondent.
This is a delusion. Even Gloria cannot do what she wants in the United States, and it is impossible to go abroad.
In order to appease Gloria, Li Mu instructed Sami Lakin to set up a "Special Reporting Group for Independent Centennial Exhibition" to follow up and report on the preparations for the "Independent Centennial Exhibition" from now on.
The special reporting team is led by Gloria, and now there are only two members, namely Gloria and her best friend Elena-
Well, it seems that it is called Elena. No matter what, it is an insignificant passerby.
This decision was strongly supported by the New York City Government. In order to express praise for this decision, the Independent Centennial Exhibition sponsored a BMW car to Time magazine, indicating that it was exclusively for the "Independent Centennial Exhibition Special Reporting Group", which means that Gloria was equipped with a special car.
Although Li Mu knew that Will paid for the car, Gloria obviously didn't know about it, so Gloria was very happy. In Gloria's opinion, this was the value of her work by others and a proof of her own value. So Gloria now drives this special "BMW" every day, and she disdains the "Phantom" that Will bought for her.
Well, in fact, this BMW from Gloria was added with materials. The engine and transmission were exactly the same as "Phantom". Although the interior was so gray that it was inconspicuous, this painting process was the latest research result of Junma Laboratory, and even "Phantom" had not been available for application.
It is easy to make a car, but if it starts from scratch, it is very difficult to be intimidating. Not to mention, the jet technology of the car alone is worth setting up a research institute to study it. The paint technology of the car produced by the Junma Automobile Factory is better. At least until now, even the BMW that was the earliest factory has not fallen off. The Vanderbilt family's cars are not good. After the Vanderbilt family's cars were launched, Junma Laboratory immediately bought a car for research. It was found that the paint effect of the Vanderbilt family's cars lasted for up to three months, not to mention the others. In addition to the engine and gearbox provided by the Junma Automobile Factory, the Vanderbilt family's cars are like inferior products pieced together on temporary production lines, with no major problems and minor problems.
But even such a minor problem will ruin the reputation of a brand. Think about the domestic cars that used to be - forget it, let's talk about something else.
It has to be said that it is really not easy for domestic car owners.
Without Chuxue and Gloria's accompanying him, Li Mu no longer had the interest in vacation. Sandy was still a little girl and took Sandy to vacation. She felt like a single father. Li Mu didn't want to have such a bad experience again.
When Li Mu returned to Governor Island, he felt a little irritable and didn't like him anywhere.
In order to preserve some historical traces, Li Mu kept William Castle and did not demolish it. Now this move has become a failure. It is really inappropriate to stand such a castle next to the Eastern Garden.
If William Castle is an exquisite building like the German Swan Castle, it would be of some significance to keep it. The problem is that the style of William Castle is too ugly. When it was built, it faced threats from the British and did not consider the aesthetics at all. As a result, the William Castle was built was a pure military building with negligible ornamental value.
Li Mu called out Situ Lei, who was conspiring with Yan Shun, and asked Situ Lei to build a real castle on the Governor's Island, not to be as grand as Swan Castle, at least to have a serious castle, not to be as joked as William Castle.
What sadly made Li Mu was that Situ Lei, a native of the country, had never seen the Swan Castle. Li Mu thought about it carefully and it was impossible for Situ Lei to see the Swan Castle. The construction of the Swan Castle started in 1869 and was not opened until 1886. It has not been built yet, so Situ Lei naturally had no chance to appreciate the grandeur and romance of the Swan Castle.
However, this did not affect Li Mu's mood. Li Mu casually drew the style of the Swan Castle in his memory. Although Li Mu had only seen the pictures and the paintings were a bit inconsistent, it still shocked Situ Lei.
"Rim, it is impossible to build such a castle without ten years of effort." Situ Lei calculated for a long time and gave Li Mu an approximate time.
ten years!
In Li Mu's impression, no one would spend ten years building a house. It only took Li Mu a few months to build a Chinese garden on the Governor's Island.
