Zhou Hexuan and Luo Jialun haven't seen each other for several years, and compared with the original sharp and arrogant, Luo Jialun at this time has three more points of restraint and calmness. If he had been such a character before, it is estimated that he would not have been expelled by Tsinghua teachers and students.

Luo Jialun looked at the courtyard of the Zhou Mansion and joked: "The mountains and rivers are beautiful, leisurely outside the world, Mr. Zhou is having a comfortable time." ”

"When the national disaster is at hand, how can there be a real paradise in this world?" Zhou Hexuan shook his head and said.

Luo Jialun sighed: "Yes, if the war is not peaceful, the people cannot live and work in peace and contentment, and the students cannot concentrate on studying. ”

Zhou Hexuan asked: "When will the construction of the campus of Central University begin?" ”

"We'll start tomorrow." Luo Jialun said.

"So fast? Principal Luo is really resolute. Zhou Hexuan was a little surprised.

Luo Jialun said with a smile: "It's just a few rows of bungalows, and there is no need for complicated design drawings, so it can be a day by day." ”

Chung-Ang University is so large that it has seven colleges, 56 departments, a research institute, nine research departments, a junior college, an affiliated middle school, and a series of subordinate units such as hospitals, farms, and factories.

Luo Jialun's ability is admirable, he was able to move all such a big stall within a month, and resume classes and work in the shortest possible time.

The president of Tsinghua University can't do it, and the president of Peking University can't do it, only Luo Jialun, the president of Central University, can do it.

More than 2,000 teachers, students, staff and their families have also moved with equipment as a whole, which has emptied the funds of Chuo University. It is certainly not possible to build a large number of buildings, not even ordinary bungalows, because there is not enough money. Only masonry can be used at the bottom of the wall, and the walls are all braided with bamboo, coated with a layer of lime on the outside, and a few wooden pillars are erected for overall support.

Before the school building was built, the students of Central University could only borrow the campus of Chongqing University - the medical school and the Department of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Medicine of the College of Agriculture were moved to Chengdu, and the campus of West China University was borrowed, and the affiliated middle school planned to move to Guiyang.

Luo Jialun chatted for a while, and finally explained his intentions: "Mr. Zhou, I heard that you have built a sulfonamide pharmaceutical factory in Hechuan, and there are many pharmaceutical experts in the factory, can you cooperate with the medical school, medical research department, and affiliated hospital of Central University?" ”

"That's a good thing." Zhou Hexuan said with a smile.

When Luo Jialun heard the positive reply, he immediately felt much better, and he said: "Then it's decided, I'll send someone to the pharmaceutical factory tomorrow to contact." ”

Zhou Hexuan suggested: "The Huanghai Chemical Research Society has also moved to Shapingba, and it is still a neighbor of your Central University. The three of us can work together, the trinity of production, education and research, promote each other and help each other. ”

"Of course it couldn't be better!" Luo Jialun was overjoyed.

Zhou Hexuan said: "In the past, China had four major salt-producing regions, one in Taiwan, two in the Bohai Sea, three in the southeast, and four in Sichuan. Now, the Japanese invaders have occupied the salt works along the coasts of Taiwan and the Bohai Sea, and the southeast coast must also be ravaged by the Japanese invaders, leaving only the Fushun and Ziliujing areas in Sichuan to be relatively safe. By next year, Fushun and Ziliujing counties will have to provide salt for several surrounding provinces, which will definitely cause salt prices to skyrocket. The salt reserves in the Hechuan area are extremely high, and I would like to ask geological experts from Chuo University to conduct a large-scale survey of the Hechuan salt mine. When the time comes, we will select the most suitable salt mine, and we will work with the Yellow Sea Research Society to mine the salt, and the salt farm will be jointly owned by three companies. ”

Luo Jialun said with a smile: "Central University has no money, so it can only contribute." ”

Zhou Hexuan said: "If you have money, you will have the power to contribute." However, in terms of shares, since I have contributed money, I naturally want to be a major shareholder. ”

"That's as it should be." Luo Jialun said.

At noon, Luo Jialun stayed at the Zhou Mansion for dinner, and President Luo said tentatively: "Mr. Zhou is willing to come to Central University to teach?" ”

"Honorary professors can do it, they can teach a few classes on weekdays, and they don't have so much time to attend classes every day." Zhou Hexuan said.

Luo Jialun sighed: "To be honest, although Central University has moved to Chongqing, the loss of students and teachers is very serious, and some departments even have only teachers and no students. The history department is okay, there are more than 40 students, but the head of the department is missing, and I would like to hire Mr. Zhou as the head of the history department of Chung-Ang University. ”

Seeing that Luo Jialun was really in difficulty, Zhou Hexuan raised a finger and said, "For one year, I will only be the head of the department for one year." By next year, it is estimated that there will be more scholars coming to Chongqing, and President Luo will be asked to choose another Gao Ming. ”

"No problem, just one year," Luo Jialun finally let go of another matter, this guy has to inch in, and said with a smile, "It's better for Mr. Zhou to teach a history class at the same time." ”

Today, Zhou Hexuan is already a top expert in the field of history, not to mention his professional academic achievements, and his "General History of the World" has become a world history textbook in most domestic universities. The "global view of history" proposed by Zhou Hexuan in this book has even become the research direction of foreign historians, and there are more than a dozen foreign historiographical papers that have aroused extensive discussion on this topic.

Zhou Hexuan thought for a while and said, "Then how about I teach two courses, one is "General History of the World" and the other is "History of Human Civilization"?" ”

"Having the original author talk about these two courses is a blessing for CUHK students." Luo Jialun said.

After lunch, Zhou Hexuan chatted with Luo Jialun for a while.

Luo Jialun got up and said, "Mr. Zhou, I have to go back and prepare, and I will go to Chengdu tomorrow to arrange the teaching resumption of the medical school and the agricultural college." Say goodbye! ”

"Walk slowly!" Zhou Hexuan got up to send him off.

At this moment, Yu Peichen walked over quickly with a telegram and said happily: "Sir, there is news in Nanjing. A reporter from Ta Kung Pao in Nanjing sent a telegram saying that Japanese bombers had dropped 18 bombs on the American battleship Panno, causing at least dozens of American casualties. Japan has attacked the United States, and the United States is very likely to enter the war, or at least to punish Japan! ”

"Really?" Luo Jialun, who was just about to leave, immediately turned back.

"Really, it's true! I'll see it tomorrow. Yu Peichen said happily.

Luo Jialun was so excited that he walked back and forth, and said in his mouth: "Great, great." As long as the United States comes forward, the life of the little devil will not be easy. ”

Zhou Hexuan did not show joy, because the bombing of the American warship Ban Nai meant that the Nanjing Massacre was about to happen. He said with a calm face: "Why is there still a reporter from Ta Kung Pao in Nanjing?" Send a telegram and ask the reporter to withdraw immediately! ”

Luo Jialun was puzzled: "Mr. Zhou, why aren't you happy that Japan has provoked the United States?" ”

"There's a fart, it's impossible for the Yankees to go to war, at least not now!" Zhou Hexuan said depressedly.

"Why? This time, Japan bombed a US warship and killed many Japanese. When the news comes back, I am afraid that public opinion in the United States will turn the world upside down. Luo Jialun said.

Zhou Hexuan said: "The United States is controlled by the capitalists, and the capitalists are eager for Japan to invade China, so they can just sell materials to Japan." Not to mention the death of dozens of Americans, even if hundreds die, the capitalists do not want to fight, Roosevelt can't fight! ”

Historically, the entire process of Japan's bombing of the US warship was recorded by cameras, and the film of more than 1,700 meters long was shown in American cinemas, arousing the strong indignation of the American people.

The explanation given by the Japanese afterwards was that it was a "bombing by mistake," a hellish bombing, and the American flag was hoisted high in the video materials, and the Japanese pilots could see it clearly, and there was no possibility of bombing it by mistake at all.

The devil knows what the Japanese thought at that time, and actually threw bombs at a warship full of Americans, and there were eighteen bombs thrown at one time.

As a result, Roosevelt admitted and fully acknowledged the Japanese official explanation for the accidental bombing, and ordered the movie theater to make special treatment of the images of the Japanese planes bombing the US warship, so as not to cause an overreaction from the American people.
