In 1937, when the Battle of Songhu began, some universities in Shanghai moved into the concession area and undertook the important task of cultivating talents for the occupied areas.

Since then, Shanghai University has recruited a large number of new students for mainland colleges and universities in Shanghai, and Shanghai Medical College alone has admitted more than 100 students.

With the full occupation of Shanghai by the Japanese army, Shanghai universities moved westward one after another: Tongji University moved to Lizhuang; Fudan University and Jiaotong University moved to Chongqing; Daxia University moved to Guiyang; Shanghai Medical College moved to Kunming and Chongqing...... But these schools still sang all the way, and cultivated a large number of later founders from all walks of life.

After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Jiaotong University faced a grim situation of life and death. The school had to take expedient measures and temporarily set up a school in the French Concession.

With the deterioration of the living environment in the concession, Jiaotong University has repeatedly proposed the idea of partial relocation to the education authority.

However, in view of the fact that "Jiaotong University has achieved great results, the government has high expectations, and the environment in which it is located can encourage the resumption of school, and it is hoped to immediately try to open the school to serve the country", the Ministry of Education instructed the school to try to open at the original site or other premises in Shanghai, resulting in repeated setbacks in the internal relocation plan.

In the French Concession, the temporary campus of Jiao Tong University was scattered in several places in the concession, and the conditions were very difficult, and there was not a single laboratory at first.

Under such harsh conditions, the teachers and students of the school tried their best to set up some simple laboratories, or rent workshop equipment, or conduct experiments directly on the open road.

By around 1940, Jiaotong University had gradually resumed most of the basic laboratory courses such as physics and chemistry, and some of them even reached the pre-war level.

With the changes in the general situation of the Anti-Japanese War, factories and enterprises in the southeast coastal area have moved inward, and the construction of traffic projects in the interior is arduous, and a large number of traffic engineering and management personnel are urgently needed.

Therefore, the first choice for Jiao Tong University graduates studying in the Shanghai Concession is to go to the mainland to participate in construction.

In addition, there are many graduates who go abroad for further study through Tsinghua University's publicly-funded examination for studying in the United States, publicly-funded internships in the United Kingdom, and self-financed examinations.

According to statistics, by the autumn of 1944, nearly 400 people from Jiaotong University had gone to North America and Western Europe to give lectures, study tours, and internships, the largest number of which was the only one among any university at that time.

France was defeated, and the situation in the French Concession continued to deteriorate. In order to cope with the changes of the times and meet the urgent need for traffic engineering talents in the anti-Japanese war and construction of the rear of the university, the alumni of Chongqing Jiaotong University have been enthusiastic to prepare for the establishment of the university in Chongqing.

"The campus of Jiaotong University (i.e., Jiaotong University Chongqing Campus) is expected to be completed by the end of the year, and the internal relocation of Shanghai Jiaotong University may be carried out at the beginning of next year." Chu Jiao looked at Shen Chen's casual appearance and couldn't help knocking on the table.

Shen Chen raised his eyelids and said, "Don't you just want money, hurry up, how much?" ”

Chu Jiao rolled her eyes and said angrily: "The more the merrier!" ”

Shen Chen knew that Chu Jiao was also a rich woman, but she didn't have a lot of cash. Moreover, he also reminded not to be too generous, so as not to arouse suspicion.

"Fundraising, I'll make a payment, you make a payment, and it's almost the same." Chu Jiao obviously also considered a specific method, and said: "There is also a temporary school building, the environment is too poor and unsafe, and I am ready to temporarily move into the public concession." ”

Shen Chen nodded and said, "Okay, you give a specific number, and I'll figure it out." ”

Chu Jiao smiled and said, "I've made you a master, you can't make a big deal, you really can't say it." ”

Shen Chen knew about teaching Shen Baihe, and he didn't take it seriously. Hearing Chu Jiao talk about it, she couldn't help but smile faintly and said, "I'm not a rare master, as if I'm old." ”

Chu Jiao squeezed her eyes and teased: "People are also very beautiful, don't you want to teach them by hand?" ”

"After teaching you this stupid apprentice, my intestines are full of repentance." Shen Chen waved his hand and pouted: "Fortunately, others don't know, otherwise, my old face will be lost." ”

"I'm smart and smart, what's stupid?" Chu Jiao widened her eyes, gouged Shen Chen's eyes fiercely, and said, "If you want to say that, it's not as simple as just giving money. Isn't the Arctic Refrigerator Company going to sell the house, you go and buy it as a school building? ”

Shen Chen shook his head again and again, and said, "If I come forward, people will definitely be embarrassed to bid." Besides, it's only been a year since I bought it, and I have to give it all to the Japanese, so I won't do it! ”

Chu Jiao blinked her eyes and frowned, "Then what should I do?" Finding a house is not that easy. ”

Shen Chen thought for a while and said, "Since it is a temporary school building, it won't stay for long. Don't you say that you may move inward at the end of the year, I think it is more cost-effective to rent a house first. ”

"Okay, let's rent the Arctic Refrigerator Company's house." Chu Jiao immediately made a decision and smiled at Shen Chen, "Then you have to work hard and let them sell it for rent." In terms of rent, you have to be more preferential, right? ”

Shen Chen snorted and said, "I really don't want to go to this kind of thing of favoring people and selling old faces." Well, I'll talk about it, and see if people want it. ”

In fact, Shen Chen was able to buy the house. Selling before the Pacific War may cost you some, but it's a little less than renting for a few months.

It's just that Shen Chen also doesn't want to be too ostentatious and show his wealth too much.

Since Manager Chen took refuge and left Shanghai, the operation of the Arctic Refrigerator Company has become increasingly difficult. Mr. Cheng, Mr. Chen's cousin, is not a talent in this area, and Mr. Chen also intends to gradually withdraw the funds.

Now, after selling this house, Manager Chen can be regarded as completely transferring the industry out of Shanghai and concentrating on operating in the United States.

Therefore, Manager Chen's cousin warmly received Shen Chen, but after hearing about the intention, he couldn't help but look embarrassed.

"My cousin meant to take care of the Shanghai side as soon as possible, and I didn't want to leave any trouble. If Mr. Shen wants to buy it, I can even make the decision and lower the price again, and I believe my cousin will not be surprised. This - can I send a telegram over there and ask? ”

When Shen Chen heard him say this, he felt that he was a little embarrassed, so he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Since this is the case, I won't embarrass you and Manager Chen, so I will buy it." But—"

If it was cash, Shen Chen wouldn't be able to take out too much at once, but he had diamonds and jewelry!

Since Manager Chen's cousin has finished dealing with this matter, he will also go to the United States to meet his cousin, and those valuables that are not seen in Shanghai can be sold outside.

"That's-" After Mr. Cheng listened, he nodded lightly and said, "I think it's okay." After all, at this time, there are not many people who want to come up with a large amount of cash at once. It just so happens that I used to be in the jewelry business, so this valuation can be more convenient. ”

"Then let's decide." Shen Chen said: "I'll still be here tomorrow, I'll bring the things, you can directly estimate the price, and sign the documents if it's appropriate." As for Manager Chen, do you need to let me know? ”

Mr. Cheng smiled and waved his hand and said, "When my cousin left Shanghai, I explained that Mr. Shen was the most trustworthy. During this time, I also received a lot of care in Mr. Shen's district. I did the Lord's thing anyway. ”

"What to take care of, Mr. Cheng is polite." Shen Chen smiled and said, "Maybe in the future, I will trouble Mr. Chen and you to take care of me more in the United States!" ”

Mr. Cheng was stunned for a moment, then understood, and nodded again and again, "Mr. Shen does have to make some arrangements for the back road, the Japanese, and the spies of No. 76, but he has suffered a big loss, and he hates you to the core!" If you have any plans, just say whether to get a U.S. passport or to live temporarily, my cousin and I will do our best to help. ”

"It's too early to say, and I haven't thought about it." Shen Chen expressed his gratitude and did not make a decision immediately.

After leaving the Arctic Refrigerator Company, Shen Chen returned to the patrol room. After handling a few official matters, Cao Yixin called and asked him to meet and discuss important matters.

After making an appointment about the time and place, Shen Chen thought for a while, picked up the pen, and began to recall the Zero War materials he had read in his previous life.

is too professional and meticulous, Shen Chen is not ready to write it, and it is estimated that even the Japanese may not fully understand the flaws of Zero War.

For example, at high altitudes, the vertical maneuver of the Zero Combat will begin to deteriorate, the movement of the ailerons will be sluggish, the reaction will be slow, and so on.

The information that Shen Chen wants to provide should not be very clear and detailed, but it can also play a guiding role in actual combat, which needs to be considered in terms of words.

"The Zero is ultra-light, has a very large range, and has an extremely high rate of climb. And the turning radius in the air is extremely small, and the maneuver and low-speed combat ability are outstanding, which may be more than all the current aircraft in the world. ”

"The dive speed of the Zero Battle is not fast, which may be due to the fact that the structural weight reduction is too harsh, resulting in insufficient structural strength of the body. Or you can dive and roll at high speed to get rid of the ...... of Zero"

"It is also possible that the problem is caused by the weight reduction of the structure, the Zero did not install self-sealing fuel tanks and any automatic fire extinguishing devices, and the pilots did not have armor protection. In addition, the body material contains flammable substances, which are easy to catch fire when hit. ”

After Shen Chen finished writing, he picked up the pen and wanted to cross out the last one, but he hesitated to keep it.

Based on this information alone, it is impossible for the Chinese Air Force to defeat the Zero War, but it should save the lives of many Chinese pilots and reduce the loss of a few planes of the Chinese Air Force.

As for the flammability of the materials of the Zero fighter, it has to be able to fight!

Shen Chen shook his head with a wry smile, hoping that China could develop a special armor-piercing incendiary bomb seemed unlikely. But if the United States can know this secret in advance, it may be able to fight a few more Zeros.

Shen Chen put away the written information, and he was not in a hurry, just waiting to get off work at the end of the day.

The defeat of France caused the situation in the French Concession to deteriorate sharply, but it was not as serious as Shen Chen thought. This severity does not refer to the attack on the anti-Japanese forces, but to Shen Chen's entry and exit with a gun, as well as some leniency towards him.

This is Everett's message to Shen Chen, and it is Qiao Bei, the No. 2 person in the patrol house of the French Concession.

The new consul general of the Vichy government, Margery, was still on his way to Shanghai, and whether or not the new consul was on the same page as Petain, the French concession authorities were already showing signs of splitting.

Headed by the Frenchman Ig, he founded a Shanghai Free France group, which, in addition to distributing Gaullist propaganda, recruited sixty-five soldiers for de Gaulle's army.

Among the sixty-five soldiers, there were twenty-four French patrolmen, and the number two man, Qiao Bei, was also among them.

According to Everett, these men were men who "spared no effort to hold on to the war" and considered them useful men "when the time came to recover France."

Moreover, the activities of Eagle and others were welcomed by the British government. The British ambassador in Shanghai praised Iger for his "courageous and moral passion, optimistic rather than blind...... It's really remarkable."

Despite such remarks, Shen Chen was still not optimistic about the situation in the French Concession.

Perhaps just over two months is more relaxed, as Ma will arrive in Shanghai in September. If he had not been loyal to the Vichy government, would he have been sent?

In the operation of the French Concession, Shen Chen may only have one left, that is, to kill Zhang Xiaolin.

I heard that the guy was about to return to Shanghai, but Shen Chen was not ready, or he had not found a chance yet.

After thinking about it, it was finally time to get off work, and Shen Chen drove to the appointment.

The place of meeting was Cao Yixin's house, saying that it was home, but in fact, as far as she and the two servants were concerned, her family had never told Shen Chen.

When he saw Cao Yixin's outfit, Shen Chen was a little confused. He really didn't expect that Cao Yixin would wear an apron and cook.

"What's wrong, I didn't expect me to be able to cook?" Cao Yixin was not surprised by Shen Chen's expression at all, stretched out her hand to signal him to sit in the living room first, raised her eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Sit for a while, the food will be ready immediately, and you will be surprised." ”

"I'm blown away right now." Shen Chen sat down, with two more pieces of paper in his hand, and Cao Yixin turned away.

There are several pieces of information on the paper, and Cao Yixin has not sorted it out. Shen Chen looked at it casually, and only two caught his attention.

The first is that the British cabinet is discussing the withdrawal of troops from Shanghai, Tientsin and Peiping, and there is a high probability of passing.

Shen Chen knew that the British did not have many troops left in China, and once the war broke out, it would hardly play a role.

The British apparently thought so, and instead of surrendering in humiliation, it was better to withdraw first.

But this is a bad sign and is likely to make the Japanese more arrogant. The concession authorities will face more pressure, and it is possible to make a compromise.

Shen Chen shook his head gently, this is not something he can decide, the situation in the concession is getting worse and worse, this is a trend that cannot be changed.

Another piece of information was a clipping of a newspaper in the Japanese-occupied area, which belittled Okinawa's empty-handed rigidity and softness, and mentioned in vague terms the defeat of Yano at the hands of a Chinese.

Is it me? Shen Chen was not sure, frowning and thinking.

The person who wrote this report seemed to be a Japanese reporter, and he didn't know for what purpose, but Shen Chen faintly smelled danger.

At that time, the name karate did not exist, it was originally called Karashou, and it was officially changed to karate in 1936. Because it comes from Okinawa, it is also called Okinawa empty-handed.

And there are many schools of Okinawa empty-handed, such as Gangjiu Stream, Kamiji Stream, Kobayashi Stream, Shaolin Stream, Shaolin Temple Stream, Pine Forest Stream, Yixin Stream, Songyuan Stream, Liu Wei Stream, Jin Hard Stream, and so on.

This report has the meaning of sarcastic ridicule of the rigid and soft stream, which is likely to cause contradictions between the genres, and the rigid and soft stream is likely to take measures in order to correct the name.

Although Shen Chen didn't know much about the history of karate, Cao Yixin showed him this as intelligence, which was obviously not untargeted, and it was a bit of an appetite for him.
