Lu Xiaobin pondered for a moment, hesitated, and said: "It's really hard to say. The strength of the United States is obvious to all, and the relationship between the United States and Europe is also obvious to all. Although Europe has differences in interests with the United States,
As you just said, their cultural genes are the same, and Trapp is a businessman, and all his actions are based on the purpose of doing business. Therefore, although he screams fiercely now, in reality
On the other hand, he can reach an intention to unite with European countries anytime and anywhere, and eventually unite to deal with China, so I can't give a direct conclusion now."
Li Tianyi smiled and said: "Lu Xiaobin, the fact that you can say this shows that you have a certain understanding of world politics, but the only thing you don't understand is the profound heritage of our Chinese civilization.
From ancient times to the present, no matter how powerful our Chinese nation has faced, it has never surrendered to its opponents. No matter how powerful the opponent is, even the Yuan Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty appeared, but the final result is that the Mongols in the Yuan Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty
The Manchus were eventually assimilated by the Chinese nation and became a member of the Chinese nation. This is the powerful and cultural heritage and charm of our Chinese nation.
Although the United States is powerful now, it is easy to break. If you don’t believe me, I can tell you that from the overall trend of this trade war, China will definitely not be the loser, and it will definitely be the United States that will be disappointed in the end."
Lu Xiaobin pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Li Tianyi, what you said does make some sense, but I still can't agree with it. Because in my eyes, the United States should not be as bad as you say."
Li Tianyi smiled and said: "Lu Xiaobin, what kind of country do you think the United States is?"
Lu Xiaobin said: "In my eyes, the United States represents advancement, democracy and integrity."
Li Tianyi was silent and said: "Lu Xiaobin, since you said so, then after visiting the Nanjing Massacre Memorial Hall, I will take you to visit another place. I believe that after seeing this place, you should know what is
American integrity.”
Arriving in front of the Nanjing Massacre Memorial Hall, Li Tianyi looked at Lu Xiaobin and asked: "Lu Xiaobin, do you know why I brought you to this place?"
Lu Xiaobin shook his head.
Li Tianyi said: "Lu Xiaobin, you went to elementary school, junior high school and high school in China. Your academic performance is indeed excellent. There is no doubt about it, but I think your teachers are not excellent and your school is not excellent.
Because you don’t understand the history of our Chinese nation at all.
Although your history score in high school was very high, it was just because of your good memory.
I brought you to the Nanjing Massacre Memorial Hall today just to show you how much suffering our Chinese nation has experienced."
While talking, Li Tianyi took Lu Xiaobin to the sculpture in front of the memorial hall.
The beginning of the long sculpture wall is an 11-meter-high mother and child sculpture. This is the theme sculpture. On the sculpture, a mother who has just been raped by the Japanese army holds a child with a withered body in her arms, with helpless and painful eyes.
Looking at the sky. On the base of the sculpture is engraved: "The son who was killed will never be born again; the husband who was buried alive will never be born again; the sorrow is left to the wife who was raped by the devil, heaven..."
After seeing this statue, Li Tianyi felt his eyes become wet with surprise.
On the statue, the mother looked so helpless, powerless, and sad. She looked up at the sky and opened her mouth to scream, but she couldn't scream or shed tears...
After walking past the mother and son sculpture, about 50 meters away, we were greeted by people fleeing for their lives.
In a group of people fleeing, a mother fell to the ground, struggling with her last strength to feed her crying baby, and finally died; but the poor child was still unaware, sucking her mother's milk vigorously, in the cold
In the winter, the two were quickly frozen together... Next to them, there was a child, crying helplessly...
When Li Tianyi saw this statue, his eyes were blurred by tears. He said with a choked voice: "Lu Xiaobin, do you know that this statue was sculpted based on real historical facts? The helpless and painful child next to him
, when he was 80 years old, he described the situation of the statue at that time: At that time, Japanese soldiers rushed into the fleeing crowd, and his mother was stabbed several times and fell. His little brother was picked up by the bayonet and fell.
He was still far away. He cried and screamed and passed out. When he woke up, he found that his three younger brothers had been stabbed to death with bayonets. His mother had not yet died. He cried and carried his little brother who was a few meters away to his mother, who kept pulling him.
Clothes, I wanted to feed my brother, but the little brother didn't understand and climbed up to feed him. But the mother's lungs were punctured, and what the brother sucked out were blood bubbles. After a while, the mother tilted her head and died. The little brother
There was no sound... The next day, the surviving people found that the mother and son had frozen together and could not be separated.
The same tragedy also happened in families. The second group of sculptures, named "Group Sculptures", recorded the tragic experiences of families in the Holocaust: there were helpless intellectuals struggling before their death, and husbands dragging their bodies after being raped by demons.
The wife struggled to move forward; there were orphans who lost their parents and escaped in fright amid the bombing of the demon plane; there was a 13-year-old boy who fled for his life carrying his grandmother who was killed by the bomb; there was a man in his prime who carried the 80-year-old with him without leaving.
The old mother - "Hurry up and escape from the blood of this devil", this is the voice of everyone;
There is a humiliated girl who is determined to fight to the death by drowning in the river; there is also a monk who, on the way to escape, sees a young man who died unjustly and heals his eyes that cannot be closed... This statue, every image, all has living prototypes.
These ten groups of "refugee" images are all derived from the records of the Holocaust."
After just watching this series of statues, Li Tianyi was already in tears. At this moment, Lu Xiaobin's eyes were also wet. He said with a choked voice: "Are these all real?"
Li Tianyi nodded and said: "These are all true, and they are all carved based on historical facts."
"Lu Xiaobin, do you know that our Chinese nation has experienced great suffering in the past one hundred years in modern times, but our Chinese nation, which has experienced many sufferings, is now on the road to the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation again.
On the other hand, suffering cannot destroy the will of the Chinese nation to rise. Even we can bear this kind of suffering. What does Trapp’s petty political means mean?
On the Korean battlefield, our Chinese volunteers were able to fight well-equipped Americans with millet and rifles. After signing the armistice agreement, now we have become the second largest economic power in the world. Do you think we are here?
Under such circumstances, are you still afraid of starting a trade war with the United States?”
Lu Xiaobin fell silent.
Although he has studied abroad and grown up abroad for many years, and although he now has an American mindset in his bones, he was once a Chinese after all, born in the Chinese nation, and he still knows the things that the Chinese nation has experienced.
The two of them walked all the way in the Nanjing Massacre Memorial Hall, and their tears did not stop from beginning to end, especially when they saw that two Japanese officers actually competed by the number of Chinese people they assassinated, and they were filled with anger.
They were already on fire.
Li Tianyi's voice was choked and he pointed to the picture and said: "Lu Xiaobin, you see, this is the Japanese. This is the cruel nature of the Japanese.
When they are proud, they will not treat you as a human being at all, they are worse than animals.
As a Chinese, we can never forget the heinous crimes committed by the Japanese in our country.
Did you know that some Japanese battleships are named Izumo, and the flags on some battleships are clearly the Rising Sun Flag from the period of Japan's invasion of China? What does this mean? It shows that Japan has never died of coveting our land of China.
We can never relax our vigilance against the Japanese wolf."
When Li Tianyi spoke, he used the word "we" and he also included Lu Xiaobin.
When he walked out of the Nanjing Massacre Memorial Hall, Lu Xiaobin's face no longer had the previous relaxation and disdain, but instead looked heavy and even confused.
At this moment, he suddenly became confused, and it seemed that he could no longer find his way forward.
He is a very contradictory person. He received the highest education in the United States and was deeply influenced by American thought and culture. He looks down on various phenomena in China, but he is patriotic and hopes to return to serve the motherland.
It was precisely because of his special experience that he was really confused at this moment.
He suddenly didn't know how to take his future path. He didn't know whether he should stay or return to the United States.
After leaving Nanjing, Li Tianyi returned to Nanping City with Lu Xiaobin.
After getting off the high-speed train, Li Tianyi took a taxi and took Lu Xiaobin to a mysterious place. There was an armed police stationed at the door of this place.
Glancing at the armed policeman standing guard next to him, he couldn't help but be stunned. He looked at Li Tianyi and asked, "Li Tianyi, where is this place?"
Li Tianyi said: "Come with me, you will know when you go in."
The further he walked inside, the more Lu Xiaobin felt a little uneasy, because he found that this place was very well-defended, with surveillance cameras everywhere, and people on duty at all the main entrances and exits.
Lu Xiaobin said jokingly: "Li Tianyi, wouldn't you take me to prison?"
Li Tianyi smiled, still did not answer Lu Xiaobin, but said with a smile: "I don't rule out this possibility, but I can assure you that here, you can definitely open your eyes and see the most real world.
s things."
Lu Xiaobin said with some dissatisfaction: "Li Tianyi, what exactly is this place? Can you please stop showing off?"
