Dan Yi swings the lungs and livers of the horse artillery! Zhu Peide immediately seized this favorable opportunity and instructed the three major newspapers in his hands to carry out special reports on the matter, setting off an upsurge of public opinion and eliciting tremendous repercussions from all walks of life in Yunnan. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

On the morning of the next day, at the kind invitation of the Yunnan Provincial Department of Education and the Kunming Federation of Students, An Yi canceled the scheduled economic seminar, accompanied by Zhu Peide and others. Go to East 6 University, the largest comprehensive university in Yunnan, on the shore of the Green Lake at the foot of Wuhua Mountain, and meet the teachers and students cordially.

East 6 University is the highest university in the province that Zhu Peide vigorously supported after taking charge of Yunnan, and its predecessor was Yunnan Private East 6 University. Originally, there were only preparatory courses, junior colleges, and secondary and lower secondary higher education. After two years of exhibition, it has more than a dozen majors in three faculties, and more than 7,000 teachers and students in the school, especially after the merger of the provincial normal in the first half of the year, the social status, faculty and scale of the East 6 University have increased rapidly, and it has become an important base for talent training in Yunnan Province.

An Yi's arrival was warmly welcomed by teachers and students, and the school held a grand welcome ceremony with more than 20,000 teachers and students from nearby universities.

Dong Ze, the president of East 6 University, who is about forty-five or sixteen years old and has a pair of myopic glasses on the bridge of his nose, is on a high platform decorated with flowers, colorful flags and large banners. More than 20,000 teachers and students highly praised An Yi's great achievements and noble sentiments in revitalizing education, reforming the army, providing relief to disaster victims, and developing science and technology and national industry and commerce. One vivid case after another won bursts of cheers and cheers, making An Yi, who was sitting on the rostrum, blush.

At the kind invitation of President Kang, An Yi held the hand of this respected educator and revolutionary pioneer who devoted his life to education in Yunnan. When he came to the microphone at the front desk, he respectfully made a big gift to Dong Ze to meet the teacher of the junior students, and immediately won the full cheers and waves of applause.

Dong Ze never thought that An Yi, who was so powerful and prestigious, would come to such a hand, and when he was moved, he held An Yi's hand tightly with both hands, and shouted "Ashamed." The two were polite, and Principal Dong made a "please" gesture to the audience and happily retreated.

An Yi saluted the audience and began to speak: "Just now, when I was resting and waiting in the back, President Dong told me that he has been the principal of East 6 for eight years, although he has always adhered to the school-running policy of "academic freedom, educational independence, professor governance and student autonomy", so that the school can start from scratch, step by step to the right track, and establish a good study style and school spirit, but because it is bound by personal thinking and vision. There's no way to make the school go any further. Therefore, he was prepared to submit his resignation to the provincial government later, taking a back seat and letting a more capable gentleman lead the first university in Yunnan.

"I was very surprised when I heard it, and so were General Zhu Peide, General Li Hongluo, Mr. Zhou of the Department of Education, and the school professors present. The great educator, who had also dedicated his life savings to the school, would leave his favorite cause. Leave the students he cares about and love the most. But Principal Dong was very calm, and his smile was as kind as now.

"Mr. Dong Ze is an outstanding patriot, he participated in the alliance led by Mr. Zhongshan as early as when he was studying in Niche, and returned to China twice during his study at Tongbun Academy in Japan and Columbia University in the United States. He participated in the armed struggle of the Xinhai Revolution and the National Defense Movement in Yunnan, and was awarded the Medal of the Republic for the Protection of the Country by the government.

It can be said that he is a pioneer in the fields of education, transportation, aviation and finance in Yunnan, and he has been awarded the title of academician of the French Academy of Sciences in France seven years ago.

"But I never thought that at this time, Principal Dong had the idea of retreating behind the scenes to devote himself to learning. I am not greedy for fame at all, and I can't help but be in awe and moved! Here, I would like to make a request to President Dong, I wonder if Mr. Dong can generously agree? ”

The audience was full of discussions, and people couldn't help but look at President Dong who was seated on the rostrum, speculating about what An Yi wanted to ask. Dong Ze also looked surprised, hesitated slightly, he stood up politely, and said loudly: "General An has won the award, in fact, I am a very ordinary person, but I did what I should do in different periods, I really don't deserve such praise!" What does the general command, please say it bluntly, as long as it is a matter of benefiting the country and the people, I, Dong Zeding, will go all out and never push Tan! ”

An Yi turned to the side and bowed to Dong Ze again: "Now the construction and exhibition of East 6 University is inseparable from Mr., I would like to ask Mr. to temporarily dispel his retreat, An Yi in the name of Jiangnan Medical College, Jiangnan University of Technology, Xiangxi Medical College, Southern University of Technology, South Sichuan Medical College, South Sichuan University of Political Science and Law, South Sichuan Agricultural College and other eight university trustees, I sincerely ask Mr. and the teachers and students of East 6 University to agree to establish close ties between the schools in terms of academics, science and technology, study abroad education and employment exchanges. If East 6 University can form a fraternal cooperative relationship with any of the above universities, An Yi will be extremely honored and proud. ”

The audience exclaimed. People are well aware of the weight of An Yi's request, especially today's Jiangnan University of Technology and Jiangnan Medical College, which have become a famous university that gathers hundreds of professional professors from famous universities in Europe and the United States, and makes thousands of students yearn for infinitely. All of them have brought great influence and inspiration to the national education circles, so why didn't An Yi's request surprise the teachers and students of East 6 University, and their emotions were surging?

Zhu Peide and others seated on the rostrum were also extremely moved. I didn't expect An Yi to be here. It's time to throw out such a shocking suggestion. Dong Ze couldn't control his excitement anymore and strode towards An Yi. On behalf of the teachers and students of the school, they solemnly accepted An Yi's request, and rarely stepped forward to hug An Yi tightly, and thanked him in a low voice, which once again led to the cheers of the teachers and students in the audience.

An Yi politely sent Dong Ze back to his seat and returned to the microphone. Smile and wait for the applause to stop, who knows waiting; For more than a minute, the applause and cheers continued endlessly, wave after wave. Son, Xixing, An Yi had to stretch out his hands. Frequent signals. It took a long time to succeed the father,、:

"Ladies and gentlemen, I graduated from the Whampoa Military Academy, and due to the needs of the war, I have not been able to further systematically study the advanced culture and science and technology of various countries in the world, and this has always been a great regret in my heart. Especially in the years of war to unify the country and resist foreign humiliation. My comrades-in-arms and I were deeply shocked by our backward country, backward weapons and equipment due to backward professional standards, revolutionary officers and soldiers who lacked knowledge due to poverty, and the huge sacrifices that we had to make when we could have avoided the end, and this was the biggest reason and driving force behind our school.

"Here, I would like to report to you that after more than five years of hard work, we have made gratifying progress, and we are deeply encouraged by the benefits we have obtained, and we deeply appreciate the benefits brought by the revitalization of education and the development of science and technology."

Subsequently, An Yi began to illustrate with vivid examples, Jiangnan Arsenal and Xiangxi Arsenal, which are now able to independently produce artillery, guns and ammunition, the country's largest Xiangxi Pharmaceutical Factory, which has a reputation in the world, the Jiangnan Automobile Factory, which has entered independent design and research from the beginning of assembling automobiles, the Yangtze River Shipyard that has moved from Nanchang to Huzhou, and the South Sichuan Imitation Weaving General Factory, which has begun to provide combat training clothing and various auxiliary supplies to the Central Army and various troops, including the Yunnan Army. The shampoo and shower gel produced by the South Sichuan Daily Chemical Products Factory are exported to European and American countries, etc., each of which has a strong example to prove the importance of talents, and proves that advanced science and technology are a great driving force for the progress of the country and the nation.

Seeing the excited and encouraged expressions of the teachers and students in the audience, An Yi turned his high voice and talked about the employment and re-education issues that everyone dreamed of:

"As of the early summer of this year, the supply of graduates from our universities has been in short supply, not only Mr. Zhou Chongan, the general manager of Jiangnan Group, who is known as the industrial and commercial giant in the country, and our army to compete for graduates, but also the industrial and commercial circles of Jiangxi and Shanghai have also joined the ranks of competing for talents.

According to current estimates, in the next ten years, the supply of talents trained by China's universities will be in short supply. It can be seen that knowledge and education have been valued and supported in China as never before. Everyone has finally seen the benefits of talent and science and technology.

"But nevertheless. As of the early summer of this year, we have sent 1,562 outstanding talents to study in Europe and the United States, and about half of the more than 320 international students who were sent to Germany and the United States to study abroad have returned to China. Universities and scientific research departments have taken the lead. ”

Applause rang out again. An Yi motioned for everyone to be quiet and continued to introduce: "Here, I can tell you a secret: China's first semi-automatic rifle, the first submachine gun with greatly simplified technology and multiplied power after two and a half months of rigorous testing, has been officially finalized and mass production has begun. We are about to equip our armed forces, and these two new weapons, which are called leading in the world by experts from European and American countries who participated in the research. It is the result of the first batch of two proud sons to study in Germany, and Shen Jianping, the designer of the semi-automatic rifle, is less than 26 years old this year. Tao Xun, the designer of the new submachine gun, only turned 25 last month, and these two firearms geniuses were originally apprentices at the Hanyang Arsenal, and in the early days of the Northern Expedition, they repaired firearms at the Pu Zhe Repair Institute of the direct army. After we conquered Nanchang, they were sent to Krupp Vocational and Technical College in Germany for further study, along with ten companions selected from the army and the apprenticeship of the Hanyang factory, and returned to China at the end of last year to join our weapons research institute.

"Before coming to Kunming, I personally hung them with the rank of colonel of the 6th Army and gave them patent certificates. I thought they would be very excited, but I didn't expect that as soon as the two of them went out, they would take off their special new dresses and hurriedly continue to return to their laboratories to start the research work on the new project again, and let the more than 7,000 teachers and students of the non-commissioned officer school who were waiting for them to make another report wait all afternoon, which made the chief of education of the non-commissioned officer school, the instructors of various subjects, the 24 th Army, and the director of the political department of the fourth department of the General Staff Headquarters angry enough. ”

More than 20,000 teachers and students burst into laughter when they heard this, and immediately applauded enthusiastically. Zhu Peide and the others on the stage also laughed from ear to ear, and Dong Ze sighed to Zhu Peide beside him in surprise: It's a pity that An Yi doesn't go to education! Zhu Peide replied happily: He is still concurrently serving as a director-level instructor at the Whampoa Military Academy, and hundreds of generals in the whole army have listened to his lectures, and he is the most popular professional instructor among Whampoa students, and I am afraid that he will soon be transferred to the research institute of the Sixth Military University.

An Yi's voice echoed again in the playground full of people: "I can also tell you one thing, nearly half of the first batch of students to study in the United States returned to China to build our poor and backward motherland, among them are talents in electronics and radio, as well as mechanical power professionals. Today, the radios, telegraphs, telephones, and broadcasting systems produced by the enterprises they join have been sold well all over the country and have been used in our military.

Among the more than 20 people who did not return to China, some entered the higher-level research institutes of the California Institute of Technology in June last year to continue their studies and research in the fields of aerodynamics, radio system engineering, mechanical power engineering, and aerodynamics, and some entered the American Fox Aircraft Manufacturing Company in San Diego, California, and began to engage in aircraft design and aerodynamic improvement research under the guidance of American mentors. Most of these valuable talents will return to China around the middle of next year to join the Southwest China Aircraft Factory under construction in "South Syria Province."

"I'm convinced. They will become the first aircraft manufacturers in the true sense of China's history, and will become the first batch of professional backbones and pioneers in China's aviation field. Become the backbone of the revitalization of the country and the rejuvenation of the nation! ”

The venue was full of exclamations. The applause was thunderous, and An Yi's words were like a raging flame, igniting the flame of hope in the hearts of countless young students, bursting out with majestic strength and dazzling youthful light.
