Volume 4 The Great Era Chapter 90
The motorcade arrived at the Capitol Building opposite the National Assembly, which symbolizes the country's highest authority. When the Capitol Building was originally built, Fang's bad taste broke out again. He drew the renderings completely based on memory, forcing a group of domestic
Architectural designers outside the country built it according to his wishes. The result of the finally built Capitol Building was extremely good, which once again became the basis for some people to praise it. Some things will become numb if you do them too much, and you will become numb with your heart.
Fang Jianxiong, who requires himself to be thick-skinned and thick-skinned, will not feel embarrassed at all because of these things. He doesn't have much spare time, there are too many things to do, and a person's life is limited.
All members of Congress, led by Speaker Tang Hualong, stood in two lines at the gate. No president had enjoyed this treatment before, but this time, under Tang Hualong's initiative, Congress unanimously passed the decision. Even the opposition party saluted.
Twenty-six years have passed, and I have seen that this once weak young man only took up this position after he was forty years old, and then look at the history of the Republic of China in these years. No matter how much people dislike Fang Jianxiong in their hearts, they cannot
Not recognizing that he deserves it.
Amid thunderous applause, Fang Jianxiong walked through the crowd and walked onto the podium. He raised his hands in vain. The applause stopped instantly, and the scene was so quiet that only his breath could be heard. "Dear members of Congress... (a hundred and fifty words omitted)
, there have been four ancient civilizations in human history, ancient Egypt, ancient India, ancient Babylon, and China! Except for China, other ancient civilizations have been submerged in the long river of history at extremely high rates. The Chinese civilization is the only civilization in human history that has been inherited for thousands of years.
civilization, this alone is enough to prove that the Chinese nation, which once stood at the top of the world's nations for thousands of years, will surely rise to the top of the world's nations again after a short historical low. After nearly a hundred years of backwardness and beatings, and enduring countless
humiliation. Standing here today, I can proudly tell everyone that the Chinese people have stood up again, and the Chinese nation has once again become one of the best nations in the world."
The applause was thunderous, as if it was about to overturn the roof. At this time, all the members stood up and applauded. Fang Jianxiong raised his hand again, and the scene was quiet again. "I stand here today and feel the huge pressure on my shoulders. The twentieth century is the first in human history.
The fastest change has occurred in the past century since the beginning of the new era. In just thirty-three years, modern civilization represented by Western natural science and technology has brought high-paced and rapid changes to human society. During this historical period, the Chinese nation must not
If you slack off even a little bit, you will be left behind by the world's advanced countries. This is definitely not alarmist. History has proven that science and technology are the primary productive forces. At this time, our generation should put national interests first and national interests first.
As the most important thing, we must firmly seize the historical opportunity and vigorously develop modern science and technology. Based on scientific and technological progress, taking the passing of thousands of years of civilization as our own responsibility, we must strive for the progress of the country and the nation throughout our lives. We will die until we die."
The content of Fang Jianxiong's speech can be summarized into the following points. First, increase investment in education internally and make the country strong through science and technology as the basic national policy. Implement the national policy of equality, mutual assistance, common prosperity and common progress for all ethnic groups. Second, adhere to the principle externally.
The principle of peaceful coexistence and being good to neighbors. Further strengthen and deepen industrial and commercial exchanges with the United States and encourage trade between the two countries. Third. Military is the foundation of a strong country. In order to deal with possible wars in the future, the government will increase military investment. Fourth
, we are wary of the current military-first phenomenon in some countries in the world, and call for peaceful negotiations to resolve international disputes. We are wary of the extreme nationalist trends and serious racial discrimination that have emerged in some countries, and believe that this is not in line with the moral standards of the free world.
Foreign media reported on Fang Jianxiong's official appointment as President of the Republic of China from different angles and calibers. The only countries that the media unanimously praised were the United States and France. These two countries have no conflict of interest with China. France's colony is next to Yunnan, so naturally it will not be involved in this issue.
Go up and stimulate China. Anyway, you can say good things for free. The attitude of the United States is even more direct. Major newspapers bluntly stated that Fang Jianxiong’s pro-American attitude has not changed, and he has always insisted on the democratic government on the premise that he has the ability to implement military dictatorship.
Road. Fang Jianxiong is also a staunch promoter of political exchanges, cultural exchanges, economic exchanges, and military exchanges between China and the United States. Mrs. Fang is also an American. The above reasons show that Fang Jianxiong’s coming to power can realize the interests of the United States in Sino-US diplomacy.
maximize.
President Roosevelt of the United States sent a telegram to congratulate Fang Jianxiong on his assumption of the presidency, and in his congratulatory message, he highly praised Fang Jianxiong's great contribution to the peaceful development of the world and the long-term peace and stability of the Pacific region.
Naturally, Fang Jianxiong would not take Roosevelt's congratulatory message to heart. This cripple was not easy to deal with. It can be said that the United States' low position as the world's hegemon after World War II was basically established by Roosevelt. When dealing with Roosevelt, Fang Jianxiong was defensive.
Never dare to relax.
When the British media in Europe reported on Fang Jianxiong's appointment as president, their tone was full of sourness. The newspapers focused on Fang Jianxiong's visit to the United States, believing that China was spending a lot of money in the United States in order to form an alliance with the United States. This was in line with the
This behavior runs counter to the principle of peaceful coexistence advocated by the Chinese themselves. Fang Jianxiong's appointment as president will inevitably accelerate the pace of Sino-US alliance. The British Empire should be wary of this phenomenon to prevent the empire's interests in Asia from being harmed.
Of course, the British media's saliva has little impact on China, not to mention the impact of Fang Jianxiong. The British government, which has promoted trade protectionism since the economic crisis, has long been included in the unreliable blacklist in the minds of countries around the world. Some British media
They even criticized the government in newspapers for making major mistakes in its long-term foreign policy towards China, which is what caused China to favor the United States. How else to explain China’s insistence on joining the League of Nations after the United States did not join the League of Nations? As for trade protection and so on
, the British media did not mention a word, focusing on the fact that the United States received an order of about 14 billion US dollars from China after Fang Jianxiong's visit, thinking that if it were not for the government's foreign policy problems, there would at least be some part of this order.
Will it fall into the hands of the British Empire?
Most of the media still gave the British government face, but some media were not so polite. For example, the big guy Reuters criticized the government's foreign policy when Fang Jianxiong visited the United States. He believed that the United Kingdom insisted on its alliance with Japan and had repeatedly
Supporting Japan when there was a dispute between China and Japan was the source of the dissatisfaction of the Chinese government. This time Fang Jianxiong came to power, Reuters mentioned the old story again, pointing out that when Fang Jianxiong was still a small warlord in the Yangtze River Basin, he had already demonstrated his tough attitude towards the British Empire.
Although his attitude has changed since then, his mind has not changed to this day. Fang Jianxiong's appointment as president will inevitably intensify the alienation of Sino-British relations. The British government's foreign policy mistakes ruined the European war, and China has a favorable situation in favor of British actions.
How else to explain China's move to join the League of Nations and purchase British warships?
The attitude of the German government and media towards Fang Jianxiong is rather contradictory. On the one hand, they point out that Fang Jianxiong was a German student and had worked closely with Germany twice during his military and political career. After Germany's defeat, China was the only country calling for good treatment of Germany.
countries that have provided humanitarian assistance. On the other hand, Fang Jianxiong emphasized in his inauguration speech that some countries put the military industry first in the rise of nationalism, believing that this was aimed at Germany and a gross interference in Germany's internal affairs.
.
In fact, the views of Fang Jianxiong, a senior German official, are indeed very complicated. After World War I, a large number of Germans went to China, and the scope of cooperation between Chinese and German enterprises was very wide. It was precisely relying on the cooperation between Chinese and German enterprises that Germany was able to achieve great success in the field of military science and technology.
It has not been left behind by the world's advanced technology. It can even be said that the results of Sino-German joint research have led the world in some aspects, especially the cooperation in the military industry and military fields, which has been fruitful. For example, Sino-German submarine manufacturing
Through joint research, relatively mature ocean-going submarine technology has been mastered. This is the basis for a major breakthrough in cooperative research on material technology. The cooperation between the Chinese and German militaries in new tactical ideas has achieved significant results. 1.
A large number of German military officers, with the cooperation of the Chinese and Japanese forces, developed blitz tactics with armored groups as the main assault force. Of course, these are absolute secrets of the Chinese and German armies.
All in all, the relationship between China and Germany can be described as "ambiguous". On the one hand, they cooperate closely, but on the other hand, they believe that Fang Jianxiong's remarks were inappropriate and hurt the feelings of the German people. Since Germany is China's largest trading partner in Europe, especially
In terms of machinery manufacturing, Germany's exports have always relied on the Chinese market. In terms of raw materials, German businessmen have more than a dozen important companies in China under the banner of joint ventures, sending large quantities of tungsten ore and other metal raw materials to Germany. This is probably why the Germans are complicated.
source.
Compared with Western powers, Japan's tone is dominated by hypocrisy. On the one hand, it congratulates Fang Jianxiong on his election, on the other hand, various media outlets are revisiting old events, such as the Qingdao War, the Far East conflict, the unhappiness between China and Japan, and the main
The person responsible is Fang Jianxiong. Japan must treat Fang's rise to power with caution. China and Japan are neighboring countries and are both powerful countries in Asia. They should strengthen friendship and strengthen economic and trade exchanges. There is also an argument that in the past few years, North Korea's resistance has
The main reason for the frequent activities is the secret support from China, which Japan must be wary of.
Regardless of what the media said, the Japanese government held the Emperor's Imperial Council for several days in a row after the Republican Party won the election. This was to address the changes in the balance of military power between China and Japan after Fang Jianxiong came to power. Especially in Fang Jianxiong's inauguration speech.
