Chapter Eighty-Three: A Turning Point in Life, Practice
Under the crisis of the destruction of the country due to internal and external troubles, countless people with lofty ideals opened their eyes wide and struggled to explore the way to save the country and the people. As a result www.biquge.info various theoretical ideas such as industry to save the country, education to save the country, study to save the country, business war to save the country, and revolution to save the country were also produced. In particular, the extreme ideas in it have become the source of wisdom for all kinds of strange ideas of Chinese thinkers.
In Chen Wenqiang's view, these theories and ideas without exception lack the ability to penetrate complex historical phenomena, and are powerless to resist the coercion of Western extremist ideologies, and are even more invaded and influenced by nationalist sentiments. As a result, it appears to be extreme and incomplete, passionate and irrational. Revolution is a major event, at least we should be good at thinking rather than action. But at this critical juncture of great social transformation, China's history lacks such a helmsman-like thinker who can guide the way.
And like fear of gaffes, people are often afraid of being confused. Because people usually need a black and white world, no matter how difficult it is, most people still try to find a solution to their inner confusion, to relieve the anxiety caused by gray, ambiguity or ambiguity, and Zou Rong is one of those people.
For two days in a row, Zou Rong recorded Tocqueville's book dictated by Chen Wenqiang, arguing and discussing with Chen Wenqiang with wrong or incomplete answers. Then, either with new insights or with new confusion, he walked slowly back to the residence arranged for him by Chen Wenqiang, and read it all night with candlelight.
A few years later, Zou Rong was full of emotion about the changes in his thinking during this time, "At the beginning, I was just a kind of mentality that refused to admit defeat, and later, I found that my so-called academic theory was simply shallow and naΓ―ve, I read a lot of Western philosophical works, learned the way of logical thinking, this is a huge leap, at least in my opinion, this is a major turning point in my life......
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
It is obviously not an easy task to pull out a team with a relatively military atmosphere in ten days. But this is a good opportunity to advertise, but Chen Wenqiang is not ready to let it go easily.
The number of people is reduced, and the less is better, and the whole team can appear neater; Personnel should be strong, first "body" to win people, thin and short how to look heroic; Clothing should be standardized, this is the main thing, people rely on clothing! Well, there is no shortage of gongs and drums, and a more exciting song is almost the same.
I have to say that although the nominal third team of the anti-Russian volunteers still has many shortcomings, it also makes Lin Dijun a little unexpected. Forty sturdy men, eight young women, one-color denim clothes and trousers, shiny copper buttons, barrel hats, rubber-soled shoes, the whole line stood there, and there was an immediate feeling of brightness.
This Chen Wenqiang seems to have been prepared, and this financial resources are abundant enough. Lin Dijun naturally didn't know the details of Chen Wenqiang, and what surprised him even more was that Chen Wenqiang actually hired two Germans as instructors.
In this turbulent era, no one can stay out of it. or go with the flow in the turbulent turmoil and resign yourself to fate; Or bravely fight the wind and waves and stand tall at the head of the tide. For Chen Wenqiang, he wants to control his own destiny and will never be at the mercy. If one person can't do it, then it's a group, if it can't protect itself, won't all these businesses he has established be wedding dresses for others?
For military affairs, Chen Wenqiang is not very good at it, he is proficient in lightning-fast assassination, rather than fighting against thousands of troops. Therefore, he organized a factory protection team and invited two German retired officers who were not satisfied in Shanghai to practice every three days. Of course, it is a bit of an extravagant expectation to expect the factory protection team to fight, but it is still enough to cultivate discipline and act as a force to protect the industry in Lujiawan.
Moreover, these two Germans, like Roden, will also become a bridge between Chen Wenqiang and the German chemical community, able to grasp the German market, and buy the chemical equipment he needs from Germany. At the same time, with these two real foreign devils in charge, it is enough to bluff back the harassment of the Manchu government.
If you want to develop industry, you can't do without the policy support of the government, but the Manchu government is now only an agent and tax collector of the great powers, and it can't play such a role at all. More importantly, the customs were held in the hands of the British as collateral for the reparations, and the import and export tariffs set by them were extremely convenient for the dumping of goods by the great powers and the plundering of raw materials from China.
In addition, there is a heavy shackle placed on the neck of China's national industry and commerce, that is, the commercial contract. According to the commercial treaties signed between the foreign powers and the Manchu Qing Dynasty, foreign merchants enjoyed special privileges, while national merchants not only had to face the impact of foreign capital and technology, but also had to be oppressed and exploited by the government.
Selling dog meat on the head of a sheep, this is the bitterness and helplessness of many Chinese businessmen affiliated with foreign companies, Chen Wenqiang can not change this fact, if he wants to survive and grow, he has to use foreigners as a cover, this is a shield, but also a parasol.
"Mr. Chen, can you remove the armband or logo on this left arm?" Lin Dijun tentatively put forward his opinions.
"Why?" Chen Wenqiang was stunned for a moment, and asked rhetorically: "The pattern can be modified, but it is better to wear this thing." Mr. Lin may not know that this thing is very helpful for training. β
It sounds ridiculous, but it is indeed a difficulty in training, and even Chen Wenqiang was surprised at the time. And with a sign on the arm, this problem is less likely to occur.
After listening to Chen Wenqiang's explanation, Lin Dijun was relieved, nodded and said, "It's ignorant of us." Well, this method is excellent, especially for new recruits who are born peasants. As he spoke, he smiled to himself and said, "It seems that we can enjoy leisure, so as not to be suspected of having an axe." Well, I'll go back now, hoping to see the heroic appearance of the 3rd Volunteers that day. β
"Mr. Lin is too humble." Chen Wenqiang said with a smile: "If you are busy with affairs, Wenqiang will not dare to delay, and you are welcome to come to observe and correct at any time." β
Lin Dijun smiled, and said in his heart that Chen Wenqiang was not polite, and he didn't say a word about it.
After sending Lin Dijun away, Chen Wenqiang pretended to yell at the training team a few times, all of which were drawn from the factory, taking Gongdian and full-time training, and he couldn't practice the money of the blind man. It is not required to be like the national guard of honor for welcoming guests and reviewing, as long as the chest is held high, the queue is kept neat, and the passionate songs are added, it can also bluff those turtles who have never seen a battle, right?
