Fan Jianchuan, born in Xikang, was born in Jin Province, worked as an educated youth and a soldier. The third class of military cadets became a teacher at the Military Medical University after graduation. After eight years as a teacher, he went into politics again, and at the age of 34 he became the (standing) deputy mayor of a prefecture-level city.

After only two years as deputy mayor, Fan Jianchuan chose to resign. He resigned not because he responded to the call to start a business, but because he liked to engage in collecting, and the deputy mayor's salary could not support this hobby at all. In order to make money, when he was deputy mayor, he even quietly went to the night market to set up a stall, and when he was recognized, he immediately caused a sensation in the city, and he claimed that he was experiencing the market economy firsthand.

After resigning, Fan Jianchuan borrowed money to start a company with a friend, and the family lived in a rental house, and his daughter could only sleep on the sofa. Seven years have passed, and now Fan Jianchuan's real estate company has ranked among the top 15 private enterprises in the province, and Hurun obviously missed him in the 100 richest list last year.

Fan Jianchuan finally has the money and time to collect, and what he collects is not antique calligraphy and paintings, but bayonets that shine with cold light, hideous and ugly gas masks, cold and hard steel helmets, and broken war diaries...... All items related to the Anti-Japanese War are within the scope of his collection.

After more than ten years of collecting career, his collection has piled up, and last year he applied for the establishment of the Anti-Japanese War Museum, but unfortunately it was not approved by the relevant departments.

In another time and space, several years later, Fan Jianchuan's Anti-Japanese War Museum was finally built. He even built an earthquake museum, and the pig named "Pig Strong" in Wenchuan was raised in the earthquake museum in Fan Jianchuan.

Others engage in collecting for elegance and appreciation, but Fan Jianchuan builds museums everywhere, and has a debt of 70 million yuan every year, and his net worth of billions can't withstand him doing this. I heard that he also wrote a suicide note in advance, asking his wife to peel off his skin after his death and make a big drum to put in front of the Anti-Japanese War Museum.

Song Weiyang said with a smile: "Boss Fan, you are very famous in the business circles of the province, everyone knows that there is a real estate developer who was born as a mayor, and he picks up garbage everywhere to collect every day. ”

"This is called good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles. Fan Jianchuan shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Song Weiyang said: "I think it's a good thing, there are thousands of real estate developers in China, but only one is determined to open a museum of the Anti-Japanese War." ”

"I love to hear that. Fan Jianchuan said.

Song Weiyang said: "When you come back from Japan, I want to visit your collection. ”

Fan Jianchuan said: "No problem, you are welcome to visit." I just want to get approved as soon as possible and build a museum of the Anti-Japanese War so that more people can visit my collection. ”

"By the way, I remember there's a dead word flag, you might be able to look for it. Song Weiyang said suddenly.

Fan Jianchuan said: "I know that the real dead word flag has been lost, and the dead word flag copied by the party with memory is now on display in the Beichuan Cultural Center, and I have also taken photos." ”

"It's a pity. Song Weiyang said regretfully.

Fan Jianchuan sighed: "Yes, it's a pity. You don't know, the first time I saw the Dead Word Banner, tears kept rolling in my eyes, the shock from the heart could not be expressed in words, and now I can still recite the full content of the Dead Word Banner. On a white cloth is written the word 'death', on the right is 'I don't want you to be filial to me in front of me, I only want you to be loyal to the nation', and on the left is 'When the national disaster is at the head, the Japanese are hideous.' The rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of the husband. I wanted to serve, but I was too old. Fortunately, I have a son, and I consciously ask for help. Give a flag and carry it with you at all times. Wipe blood when wounded, and wrap up after death. Go forward and don't forget your duty. Father's Hand. ’

Shen Si, who was sitting next to him, suddenly interjected, "Is this a true deed? ”

Fan Jianchuan nodded and said, "Really, the party of the Dead Word Banner died of illness eight years ago. Unfortunately, it wasn't until after the old man's death that I heard about his deeds, and I didn't have the opportunity to visit him in person. ”

"He must have been a combat hero. Even Hong Weiguo, who has always been silent, spoke.

Fan Jianchuan said: "The story of this old gentleman is very exciting, and he has escaped death countless times. Because he worked as a teacher before enlisting in the army, he could write and calculate, and was in charge of the logistics and quartermaster of the whole company. One silver dollar was not sent out because it was missing, so he put it in his coat pocket and took it out for fun at his leisure. During a full-company charge, the old man was shot in the abdomen, and after the battle, he found that the cotton clothes and silver dollars had been pierced, and even the silver dollars with bullets had all been shot into the flesh. This old man soon became a company commander, led his troops to block a squadron of Japanese troops crossing the water at Dongting Lake, annihilated more than 100 enemies, captured three steel boats, and was awarded the Theater Medal A class. As he spoke, he sighed again, "It's a pity that the old man's life in his old age is a little unsmooth." ”

Song Weiyang was silent.

Hong Weiguo said: "Boss Fan likes to collect relics of the Anti-Japanese War so much, have you ever been a soldier?"

"I have been," Fan Jianchuan said with a smile, "I was a soldier in 76 years, and after I was discharged from the army, I happened to meet the university re-recruitment, so I went to apply for the military school again." ”

Hong Weiguo said: "Then you are the old squad leader. ”

Song Weiyang explained: "This is Hong Weiguo, my bodyguard, who used to be a scout. ”

Fan Jianchuan said: "Then you are better than me, the scouts are very good, and I have been a compulsory soldier for three years." And I'm short-sighted, and when I was conscripted for a physical examination, I relied on cheating to get by, but I was still brushed off. At that time, my body was too weak, and I was starved and fainted twice as an educated youth, and I couldn't run at all during the physical examination. ”

"Then how did you become a soldier?" Hong Weiguo said curiously.

Fan Jianchuan said with a smile: "I went to the head of the conscription at that time and played the flute and wrote calligraphy for him. When the chief saw that I was literate, he nodded and said, 'Okay, you boy, come on.' After two and a half years as a conscript, the unit was suddenly transferred to fight a counterattack in self-defense. ”

"Boss Fan has also been on the battlefield?" Hong Weiguo was in awe.

"That's not the case," Fan Jianchuan shook his head and said, "I even wrote a suicide note at that time, and I thought about killing the enemy to serve the country, but I only put a few shots on the border line, and I withdrew without killing a single enemy." Then he was inexplicably transferred back to his original station, and when his three-year service period expired, he was directly discharged from the army. Speaking of which, I envy those comrades-in-arms who have fought with the enemy with real knives and guns. ”

The more the two veterans talked, they began to talk about interesting stories about the army, and even compared the army meals in the late 70s and early 90s.

"At that time, the country was poor, and the army was also poor," Fan Jianchuan said with a smile, "The lard of the cooking class was often stolen, and the steamed buns were cut with knives and stuffed into the lard, just like hamburgers now." ”

Hong Weiguo said: "We did the same at that time, the training was too ruthless, there was no oil and water, so we could only steal lard and make tooth sacrifices." ”

"I'm also a soldier. The passengers in the two rows of seats suddenly interjected, and naturally joined the chatting line.

Song Weiyang was left to the side, but he was not bored, and it was interesting to listen to these guys chatting.

After getting off the plane, Song Weiyang handed out his business card: "Boss Fan, if you have any difficulties in building the Anti-Japanese War Museum in the future, you can come to me at any time, and I will definitely try my best to help if I can." ”

"Thank you. Fan Jianchuan put away his business card with a smile.
