Section 24: Completion
The music was deafening, and the cheers were reaching the sky, Zhao Yuanren never thought that the graduation ceremony of a college, a graduation ceremony that even the mountain chief would not pay much attention to in China, could be so valued in this Hawaii.
"Will Zhu Shanchang come?" Zhao Yuanren asked Pol loudly.
Pol was waving the rings in his hands, dancing enthusiastically to the music. Zhao Yuanren waited for a while, and saw that Pol didn't seem to hear his words at all, he couldn't help but be a little disappointed, sighed and turned his head to look around, and suddenly found that he was now in the happy crowd, and he didn't move, and he didn't dance, in this happy crowd, it seemed to be an outlier, Pol also seemed to be aware, jumped to Zhao Yuanren's side, held Zhao Yuanren with one hand, and said loudly in Zhao Yuanren's ear: "Jump up, Brother Xuan Zhong, today is the greatest day in Hawaii!" ”
Zhao Yuanren naturally didn't know the meaning of the pun in Boer's words. Last night, the white bandits died in a bloody battle on the grass, and Hawaii truly gained freedom and equality, and there was no need to worry about being subverted by others. The enthusiasm of a person freed from fear and worry erupts like several active volcanoes on the island of Hawaiʻi.
"Will Chief Zhu come to the graduation ceremony?" Zhao Yuanren asked loudly again.
"Of course," Pol looked back at Zhao Yuanren with a warm smile on his face, "the mountain chief will not only come, but also give a speech." ”
Zhao Yuanren was overjoyed when he heard this, since he set foot in Hawaii yesterday, all kinds of things have never been heard of, that is, there are not so many strange people and strange things in Sima Gong's historical records, which really makes Zhao Yuanren extremely curious about Zhu Qiu.
Not only him, but also Liang Qichao couldn't hold back his curiosity in his heart, Liang Qichao's trip was specially designed to see Zhu Qiu. Speaking of which, he is not the first to come to Hawaii Island, as early as 15 years ago, Liang Qichao came to Honolulu to raise funds for the constitution. But what you see in Hawaii today, the faces of the residents, the carnival of the students on the island, and the past are simply like mud, Liang Qichao is a fickle person, and he is thinking about how to summarize this Hawaiian thing into a book and print it in China.
"Ren Gong, I told you that a constitutional monarchy is the best form of government, even at the beginning of the founding of the United States, Adams also said that the best way to rule a huge country is a constitutional monarchy. Look at Hawaii today, what a testament to that! ”
Liang Qichao stared at Yang Du, but did not refute. The two followed the crowd and slowly walked towards the ceremony.
The graduation stage is located at the foot of Stone Mountain, north of Freedom Warriors Cemetery, directly across from Waikiki Beach. When Liang Qichao and Yang Du came here, Siye was already full of people, and flags of various colors were waving in the hands of people with various skins, making this Hawaii look more like an island of the future, there was no up and down between races on the island, there was only freedom and equality.
When Zhu Qiu appeared on the graduation stage, the cheers were even more like the waves in front of Waikiki Beach, wave after wave, even more exciting and enthusiastic than the appearance of the Queen of Fangcai. People living in Hawaii today sincerely respect this young man, it was his blood seven years ago that brought a new life to Hawaii, which was different from the Kingdom of Hawaii, when Hawaii was ignorant and ignorant; It was also different from the quasi-state period in the United States, when white people were like medieval aristocrats and others were left to survive.
Liang Qichao was also infected by the joyful crowd, and while applauding and cheering, he suddenly thought that this Zhuqiu is now just the head of a mere Yiye Academy, and in today's China, he is at best the principal of a middle school. Hawaii respected the teacher so much, which made Liang Qichao a little unbelievable in his heart, this kind of situation, such a situation, should be exclusive to China. It is important to know that Chinese culture and education for 5,000 years are so honorable in society.
In a trance, Liang Qichao seemed to have caught something, but the cheers around him were too deafening, and the noisy Liang Qichao's head ached, and he couldn't catch that glimmer of light in his eagerness.
At this time, the master of ceremonies came to the stage, and everyone on the field gradually quieted down, Liang Qichao pondered carefully, and suddenly heard the master of ceremonies say: "Hawaii is located in the center of the Pacific Ocean, and the Eastern and Western civilizations converge in Hawaii, so there is a status quo like Hawaii, where the Western system is the body and the Eastern study is the core......
Suddenly, the glimmer of aura in Liang Qichao's mind exploded suddenly, yes! No wonder I saw that this Hawaii was acting strangely. The Western system is now the trend of the times and is admired by all the people, but with the European war, the Chinese elite will see the autumn and know that although the Western system is good, the culture is extremely flawed. But looking at the situation on the island of Hawaii, this Zhu Qiu actually knew that when the west invaded the east, he made the east learn from the west and reconcile the Hawaiian islands.
What a sharp eye!
Liang Qichao, who has been wandering at the crossroads, suddenly discovered the third way of comprehensive westernization and conservative contenuation, and the excitement in his heart was indescribable, and his mind quickly flashed with all kinds of past and present lives in the East and the West, and the more he thought about it, the more excited he felt, and the commonalities were far more than he imagined.
After returning to China, when he carefully studied the Thirteen Classics, Liang Qichao thought secretly in his heart.
"Ren Gong, what do you want?" Yang Du leaned into Liang Qichao's ear and shouted loudly: "Zhu Fangsheng is going to give a speech!" ”
Liang Qichao was shocked when he heard this, and when he looked up again, he saw Queen Victoria of Hawaii waving to the crowd and slowly walking to the back.
Taking a long breath, Liang Qichao thought for a while, feeling that he had the inspiration of Fang Cai in his mind, and then he raised his head and listened to Zhu Qiu's speech:
"Two thousand years ago, Zhang Qian was ordered to send an envoy to the Western Regions and opened a land journey between the East and the West. Four hundred years ago, Christopher Columbus crossed the ocean and discovered the Bahamas, allowing Western civilization to gradually spread to the world and rise above the world. ”
"Yes, Zhang Qian, two thousand years ago, communicated with the world, but did not discover the world. It was only in the 400 years since Columbus set foot in the Bahamas that humanity truly discovered and recognized the world we inhabit. How big the world is, how many lands, how many oceans, over the past 400 years have become clear. ”
"But we didn't adapt to the wide world. With the desire to get rich, the Europa people who discovered the world used strong ships and cannons to step other races into the abyss, and the Europa people subverted the civilization of countless races and made the original people of countless islands disappear forever. ”
"The Europa people discovered the world, but they didn't adapt to it. For 400 years, the civilization of Europa has been accompanied by slavery, plague and conflict. ”
It is not difficult to imagine what kind of greedy human beings who have been in poverty for a long time when a rich world is unfolded. But we believe that today's global situation is only temporary. Because the rainbow hanging in the sky cannot have only one color, because human beings living on the earth cannot have only one skin color. The Americans said in the Declaration of Independence, "All men are created equal," and I tell you, all people are created equal. ”
"Yes, all men are equal, men and women, all peoples are equal, fundamentally, all civilizations are equal."
"This is the foundation of Ichiha Academy, and this is the reason why Hawaii was ahead of its time. In today's world, civilizations clash with each other, and the Europa people enslave the world by force, but I and you, civilizations will eventually be equal, because all people are equal, and they will not be superior because of their skin color and faith. From slavery to equality, this is the mission of our generation. ”
"There is no superiority in civilization, and the difference between superior and inferior at this moment is only because of human greed, because of human selfish desires. Our generation is fortunate because in our hands, the superiority of this civilization will gradually disappear, the goodness and beauty of mankind will eventually triumph over greed and selfish desires, and all the peoples and civilizations of the world will tend to be equal. ”
"We are fortunate and unfortunate because in the coming decades, the war will not stop, the conflict will be more intense, many people will be displaced, many people will shed their blood, but in a few decades, a new world will appear before the eyes of humanity, a land of equal dignity and abundance will return to its life and peace, and then we can say to our children and grandchildren, we have done it!"
"We will do it, we will cross the oceans, we will climb the mountains, we will stand on the top of the world, shouting to mankind: Freedom, you have eternal freedom!"
"Therefore, the young people of Yiye Academy, the people of Hawaii Island, you should have such an awareness, this is the mission entrusted to you by history, and your mission is to stride forward and move forward bravely, to liberate the entire human race, to give freedom to mankind, to give equality to civilization, to give dignity to life, and to give life eternity!"
"......Boom" The Hawaiians in front of him applauded and cheered like boiling hot water, and the hot water in Liang Qichao's heart was already boiling, this Zhuqiu, this Zhuqiu surpassed himself for thousands of miles! When he was still thinking about the Hawaiian system opening a new way for China, when he was still worried about when China's weakness would come back, Zhu Qiu had already set his sights on the world and the entire human race.
Liang Qichao was stunned, the ninth-order students who graduated from Yiye Academy over there, wearing their own national cultural costumes, gradually walked up to the stage, several Chinese teenagers and a few blonde and blue-eyed teenagers were wearing wide Hanfu, but Yang Du on the side knew that he was in the doctor's uniform of the Eastern Han Dynasty at that time.
Yiye Academy did not have a graduation certificate, and the teenagers took the emblem and graduation badge representing Yiye Academy, pinned them to their clothes, and waved violently at the Hawaiians in the audience.
Suddenly, a loud whistle came from Waikiki Beach, this whistle was intended for Liang Qichao's thoughts, Liang Qichao turned his head to look, dozens of teenagers on the other side were wearing shorts and shorts, holding thin leaf-shaped shiny wooden planks in their hands, and they were vigorously greeting to the ceremony.
The young men on the stage cheered, quickly took off their wide robes, and only wore short clothes and shorts, and rushed towards the beach.
Running over there, one of them picked up a plank and rushed over against the surging waves. There were even a few Chinese teenagers holding a red flag in their hands, flipping and jumping in the waves.
This great era has finally begun.
Volume VII The Distant Way Can Be Imagined
ps: There are a lot of things today, and I can't polish it in a hurry, Zhu Qiu's speech has been conceived for a long time, and I am not satisfied with it after writing it several times, so I will send it up first, and I will make language changes in the next few days.
