Chapter Eighty-Three: The Chung Hwa Building (1)

Chapter 83

At the San Francisco train station, Lin Han was warmly welcomed by the local Chinese. Under Situ Meitang's organization, the scene was even grander than he expected. There was a huge crowd of people outside the train station, and everyone squeezed their heads to see who Lin Han, the legendary figure who revitalized the country's prestige at the Olympics, was.

Surrounded by enthusiastic local overseas Chinese, Lin Han spent nearly half an hour getting out of their frenzied encirclement and squeezing into the car that picked him up.

At this time, Situ Meitang was already a sixty-four-year-old man. He is a member of China's Zhi (Crab) Gong (Crab) Party (Crab) Founding Female Taiwan. In March 1882, he went to the United States to make a living and joined the "Hongmen Zhigong Court". Franklin, who was killed by Lin Han not long ago. Roosevelt even served as a legal adviser to the church.

In the Chinese history of the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, this is a figure that cannot be left unmentioned. In 19o4, Sun Yat-sen went to the United States for activities, and the two established a deep friendship. It was under his support that the long-distance revolutionary Nagao Takano. Sun, a classmate, had the capital to carry out many revolutions in the late Qing Dynasty. Subsequently, Szeto Meitang raised funds to support the revolution in China. In order to support the anti-Japanese resistance, Situ Meitang established the "New York Overseas Chinese Anti-Japanese National Salvation Association". After 1945, Mr. Situ's political (crab) governance (crab) tendency began to turn left, and in 1949, he went to Beijing ** Chenglou to participate in the founding ceremony of New China. In 1955, Situ Meitang died of illness in Beijing.

Lin Han wants to gather the strength of Chinese people overseas, and he absolutely cannot avoid this person in the United States. This man is a true patriotic overseas Chinese. During the eight years of the Anti-Japanese War, the New York "General Bureau of Fundraising" raised a huge amount of 140,000 US dollars. Among them, An Liang Tang, led by Situ Meitang, donated the most.

Outside the train station in San Francisco, Lin Han met the gray-haired old Mr. Situ Meitang, and after a polite greeting between the two, he got into the car he sent to pick up people. Lin Han came from Los Angeles, followed by an astonishing number of international students, and this posture surprised the old gentleman.

Regarding the accommodation of this batch of students, Lin Han has already made arrangements. As early as half a year ago, he sent someone to buy a piece of land near the sea in San Francisco. Then he hired local Chinese laborers and built a building there, to be exact, a large martial arts hall, the name of the martial arts hall. It's called Zhonghua Building. Of course, in order to avoid the Chinese Exclusion Act and related troubles of the Americans, the property rights of the martial arts hall were registered in the name of a pure American, who was also a fanatical believer in the Sephiroth religion.

The group of students brought by Lin Han settled in the newly built Zhonghua Building, and Lin Han transferred back to San Francisco from Los Angeles this time, in addition to negotiating with Mr. Situ. It is also for the opening of this building. According to the plan, in the future, it will become the headquarters center for overseas Chinese.

As a senior who has lived for more than sixty years, Situ Meitang has already cultivated to the essence, and as soon as he comes into contact with him, he realizes that Lin Han is not good. And today's Lin Han, in the process of blending ideas with Hannah, also gained a lot of negotiation experience from Hannah. After having the "real body". Hannah's most important thing in Germany was to follow Hitler as a personal bodyguard, and as Hitler's most trusted person, she followed him to participate in many negotiations with various entrepreneurs and political forces in the upper echelons of Germany. This experience broadened her insights and made her more "human".

In the integration of ideas with Lin Han, this experience was also shared with Lin Han. Lin Han, who was originally a political rookie, also learned a lot of experience and knowledge about negotiation.

On the first day of Lin Han's arrival in San Francisco, it was purely a show of no nutrition. In his words, it is like a "giant panda" to appear everywhere for everyone to "watch". In the local Chinatown, he took out the pre-prepared speech "Men Should Be Self-Improvement" and gave a passionate speech, but the feeling given to him by the audience around him reminded him of the scene that appeared in Jet Li's movie "The Lion of the Western Regions" before he traveled back, which can almost be called a vivid reproduction of reality: he gave a speech with great effort, wanting the local Chinese to understand the truth of self-confidence and self-improvement. The students he brought with him also carried out similar patriotic and nationalist propaganda on the spot, but the result can basically be called chicken and duck talking, not speculative, just like what they encountered in Los Angeles.

A small number of young people. The audience was agitated by the high-ranking audience, but most middle-aged people in their thirties and forties listened to it with a half-numb or laughed off, and most of the propaganda materials they sent out were diverted for other purposes afterwards: they were smoked cigarettes, or they were used to wrap melons and fruits, or they were dried as toilet paper.

The most popular was the small snack that was given to the audience at the lecture site, and they only wanted to see him perform the sensational "Tai Chi Ball Dance" that had been staged in Los Angeles before.

"Opening up the wisdom of the people is really not something that can be done overnight."

Lin Han, who had already been mentally prepared, sighed secretly in his heart, and while he encouraged the students not to be discouraged, he communicated with the people from the Jiangxi Soviet District and discussed how to negotiate with Mr. Situ Meitang in the next few days. This time he came to the United States, Lin Han came to make a name for himself and "attract money", but he did not want to ask overseas Chinese for donations. In the past 30 years, overseas Chinese have been named after Kaohsiung Changxiong. Sun Wei's artillery party was in a miserable pit, and these gang of artillery speculators who hugged their thighs everywhere wrote a lot of empty checks, and the so-called "revolutionary bonds" were even more numerous, but they never repaid them until they were driven out of China.

Qian, as a traverser and Lin Han, who also has special abilities, now has countless ways to get money, so he doesn't want to fight the idea of overseas Chinese's hard-earned money. What he really figured out Guò Situ Meitang got was still a human being.

People and talents are the most precious resources. Money is easy to earn, but talent is hard to come by. Compared with the war-torn country, the overseas Chinese living in the Western capitalist society have a much higher understanding of industrialization. After receiving his support, the leather (crab) life shape shì of China (crab) was constantly improving, and after the base area expanded to the sea and obtained the outlet to the sea, small-scale industrial construction would soon begin, and in this case, the support of overseas Chinese technicians with factory work experience from overseas was undoubtedly more precious than capital. And Lin Han's overseas layout is also inseparable from these people.

Negotiations are always long, and on the first day of Lin Han's arrival in San Francisco, it is impossible to reveal all his cards at once. After meeting the local Chinese representatives, visiting them one by one at several key halls that he could not go to, and coping with the speeches, he participated in the welcome party held for him by the local Chinese, and it was not until 10 o'clock in the evening that Lin Han had the opportunity to get out and go back to the newly built "Zhonghua Building" to have a look.

The newly built "Zhonghua Building" martial arts hall is extremely close to the sea, with a straight-line distance of less than 300 meters, and the location is close to the residential area, which is a lively area. According to Linhan's requirements, the address should not be far from the downtown area, not too far from the Chinese residential area of Chinatown, not too close to the white area, and at the same time it must be convenient for transportation, and it must be very close to the sea or water. Under the many requirements, the people who sent the site to choose a suitable location spent a lot of effort to determine the right location. Fortunately, it is now the time of the economic crisis, and the local land price has plummeted, so I did not spend too much money on the acquisition of land.

The so-called "Zhonghua Building" is actually a ring-shaped building complex, consisting of five buildings in a row of pentagonal shapes -- the design is purely a painful attempt by Lin Handan to imitate the design of the Pentagon. Each of the five-storey buildings is independent and spaced between 20 and 30 meters apart, leaving a wide road passage with no physical connection to each other. The open space in the middle surrounded by these five buildings with the same shape has been preserved as a park.

Due to the economic crisis, unemployment is everywhere in the United States, and the labor cost at the time of construction is extremely cheap. The local government is also very supportive of this kind of construction activities to increase employment opportunities. Therefore, the process from application for approval to building has been smooth sailing. From laying the foundation to starting the building to decorating, the construction was completed in less than half a year, and we waited for Lin Han to come over for the opening acceptance.

The main building is the "China Martial Arts Hall" facing the sea, and the other four floors, one is the Xuanwu Building used for Xuanwu Sect (crab) teaching, and the rest are either used as hotels, or as teaching buildings, or for commercial purposes. Ellingham's plan is that in the future, it will become an important center of activity for Chinese Americans.

Although it was night, Lin Han, who had been busy all day, still couldn't rest, and the last guest he met today was a martial arts master from China. In the future, Zhonghua Lou will recruit disciples from all over the world in the name of spreading Chinese kung fu. Lin Han, a "pseudo" martial arts master, could not sit here for a long time, so he looked for a "master" with real skills among Chinese martial artists in China and the United States in advance, and sat in Zhonghua House for him.

According to the plan, tomorrow will be the official opening of the Zhonghua Building, the day of the call for "disciples" to the world. At this critical time, Lin Han also had to make a final communication with these invited "masters" to clear up possible misunderstandings.

No more globalization than later generations. The martial artists of this era all have more or less the problem of self-cherishing, and the prejudice of "how can my Chinese martial arts be passed on to the Western barbarians" is even more strict. Although Lin Hantong guò guò tongue and gold bars persuaded them, at the last moment, just in case, he gave them another "preventive shot".

"The purpose of building this Chinese building is to pass on the true kung fu of Chinese martial arts to those white-skinned foreign devils, but to spread Chinese culture and Chinese thought under the cover of martial arts and art, to put it simply, to brainwash these white-skinned people and sell the private goods of our Chinese culture, so as to achieve the purpose of becoming a "foreign traitor" in China. To put it bluntly, one of the purposes of the construction of this Chinese building is to cultivate foreign traitors! ”

The martial artists of this era did not have a high level of education, so from the very beginning, Lin Han deliberately made his words very easy to understand.
