Mr. Wang Siu-ming, the Executive Dean, was giving a speech on the theme of "Broken Households and Nouveau riche." He pressed the chair table with one hand, raised his index finger with the other hand, and said gracefully:
“In recent months, a serious question has arisen in the domestic ideological circles: why has China declined to such a point... This question naturally arises out of sorrow for the national crisis, and because of sorrow for the national crisis, we seek ways to solve the national crisis...
Some people say that the Chinese nation has lost its self-confidence, forgotten that it has a culture of more than 4,000 years, belittles itself, and cannot muster the courage... Others say that this is the Chinese nation's lack of introspection, because China's 4,000 years of history
Compared with Europe, culture is really inferior, and the Chinese nation should reflect deeply... In recent issues of the Independent Review, Mr. Hu Shizhi has spoken most poignantly about this point."
Wang Zhaoming glanced at the officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and saw that everyone was listening attentively. He continued: "Compared with ancient European culture, does ancient Chinese culture have its own characteristics? Or is it inferior? This question should be left to the study of ancient times.
We don’t want to discuss it with people who are cultural historians. But China has its own culture, which is unquestionable. I don’t want to compare it with European countries that have culture, but only with a country that doesn’t have its own culture, such as Japan...
…”
After repeated comparisons, Wang Zhaoming came to a conclusion, that is: China is a broken family, and Japan is an upstart!
Then, Wang Zhaoming extended it further and believed that the nouveau riche in China still live in the glory of their ancestors and have no fighting spirit to strive for improvement. Therefore, whenever life is in danger, they still hold the concept of obeying fate, are lazy and have no shame. Therefore,
, a child from a poor family is far less diligent and promising than a self-made person, and the Chinese are not as motivated as the Japanese.
After using countless examples to prove his point of view, Wang Zhaoming said the last paragraph: "You can start from scratch, but why can't you revive after you have settled down? As long as you get rid of your pride, compare clearly, work hard, and achieve success.
As a modern country, this is the only way to save the nation and survive, and this is the solution to carrying forward the civilization of our ancestors!"
"Snap, snap, snap!"
The audience burst into applause, and officials from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs stood up and clapped for five minutes.
This speech is very positive. It is a warning to the people to abandon the concept of a heavenly country, accept advanced ideas and things, and work hard to become stronger. As for the crooked content of this speech, such as unlimited praise of Japan and Germany, everyone is
Ignored, or recognized by everyone.
Wang Zhaoming came down from the stage with a smile. Foreign Minister Zhang Qun immediately came to greet him and said with a smile: "President Wang, the ministry has prepared a banquet. Please be sure to honor him."
"No need. Now that the country is facing a crisis, we officials should set an example and practice frugality." Wang Zhaoming said with dignity.
Zhang Qun quickly flattered him: "Dean Wang is still at a higher level!"
Zhang Qun was a member of Chang Kaishen, and Wang Zhaoming didn't want to offend him, but he didn't want to get too close either. He gave Zhang Qun some serious instructions, asking Zhang Qun to do a good job in the diplomatic work of the Republic of China, and then took the people back home.
The car carrying Wang Zhaoming came out of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the open-air radio on the street was broadcasting news. Suddenly, the announcer said: "The following song is "The Great Wall Will Never Die" written and sung by the famous scholar Mr. Zhou Hexuan himself.
fall"……"
Wang Zhaoming didn't care at first, but when he heard lyrics such as "bandits have always invaded, they will eventually die", "How can we let the country be trampled on again, everyone must shoulder their mission", etc., he immediately changed his color and said angrily: "Xu Enzeng
What are you doing? If the Central Radio Station plays this kind of song, it will cause diplomatic disputes! Turn around and go to the radio station!"
Pedestrians on the road stopped to listen. Many people were so excited that they burst into tears after listening to the song.
"The Great Wall will never fall, and the Yellow River will flow for thousands of miles. This lyrics is so well written!"
"Mr. Zhou is indeed a great poet, and he writes songs so boldly."
"It's a pity that the Great Wall War was still lost, alas!"
"Why are you sighing? Although we lost the Great Wall War of Resistance, we in China have 40 million compatriots. If the Japanese devils dare to attack, they will drown them with a drop of spit!"
"That's right. As long as little Japan dares to come, I guarantee that he will never come back."
"This song is really nice. Where can I buy the record?"
"Didn't you hear what Nightingale (announcer Liu Junying, also known as Nightingale) said, that's an EMI record, sold in department stores."
"Hey, I'm going to buy one. This song sounds exciting."
"..."
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Central Radio Station of the Nanjing National Government were both located in the Gulou District of Nanjing in later generations. In just a few minutes, Wang Zhaoming arrived at the radio station by car. He walked in angrily and asked, "Where is your Director Xu?"
?Let him come out to see me!"
Director Xu is Xu Enzeng, the director of China Central Radio, who can also be called the station director.
When a section chief in the station heard that Wang Zhaoming was coming, he hurried over to greet him and said bravely: "Director Wang, Director Xu is not here. Do you have any instructions?"
"Not in the stage? Well, you bastard!" Wang Zhaoming said angrily.
The section chief smiled apologetically and said, "Director Xu is indeed not here. If you need anything, please tell me."
Wang Zhaoming really didn't dare to do anything to Xu Enzeng, because Xu Enzeng was from the CC department and was Chen Guofu, Chen Lifu's confidant. Xu Enzeng was not only the director of the Central Radio Station, but also the chief of the General Affairs Section and the Chief of the Investigation Section of the Organization Department of the Central Committee of the Kuomintang
, he once induced Gu Shunzhang to rebel and almost uprooted the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China in Shanghai.
how to say?
When the military unification was established next year, Xu Enzeng's status was even higher than that of Dai Li. The former was the director of the first division and the latter was the director of the second division. Later, when the central unification was established, Xu Enzeng even became the general person in charge of the central unification and military unification bureaus.
.Even when Chang Kaishen wanted to issue an order to the Central Command and the Military Command, the document only said "Xu Enzeng, Deputy Director of the Central Command Bureau" and had to be given to Xu Enzeng for personal approval before action could be taken.
It was not until 1945 that Xu Enzeng completely lost power and took charge of the secret front of the Kuomintang (mainly the Central Unification Front) for 15 years.
Wang Zhaoming really didn't dare to offend such a confidant who was so respected by Chiang Kai-shek. He looked at the section chief angrily and asked: "The song you played just now is called "The Great Wall Will Never Fall". Who gave you permission to play it?
of?"
"Yes...it's Deputy Director Wu." The clerk replied anxiously.
"Deputy Director Wu? Haha, Wu Dao! I know this person," Wang Zhaoming scolded sternly, "Listen to me carefully. This song is a banned song and can easily cause international disputes. It is not allowed to be played in the future!"
The clerk said dumbfounded: "Ban the song? But you can't. It was sent by EMI Records, and their boss is British."
Wang Zhaoming was stunned when he heard it, and then said: "I don't care about anything else, anyway, China Central Radio is not allowed to play it!"
