The discussion on the future development path of Nanhua continues, and the protagonist is still Situ Nan.
Maybe I should give myself the title of "Chief Designer of Nanhua"!
Situ Nan thought to himself.
He looked around and saw that everyone was listening to his plan for Nanhua, and he felt a little proud.
Well, it feels like I'm getting more and more into the play. However, in order to avoid detours in Nanhua, Situ Nan had to spend more brainpower.
"It is imperative to strengthen foreign exchanges and introduce Western capital and technology, and a global investigation is indispensable. There's also the heavy dΓ questionβ"
Situ Nan paused, raised his fingers, and slowly spit out two words: "Traffic!" β
"Without perfect transportation, there is no way to talk about it. I heard that during the previous war, the material supply of the army was almost insufficient due to transportation restrictions? β
Situ Nan asked.
"Yes. We have secretly buried a batch of supplies in some places, so we don't have to rely on Medan to transport all the supplies, otherwise the war will not be so smooth. β
He Wenxiu nodded and said with emotion, "When we landed in Java, we didn't have enough ships, so we had to requisition a group of small sailing boats to rush supplies. Fortunately, the Sunda Strait is not wide enough, otherwise we would not have had enough ammunition, and we would not have been able to take Jakarta before the Dutch mainland reinforced us! β
"I'm embarrassed to say that your gang of losers have smashed the Governor's Palace, otherwise we can live better now." Yao Hongmin looked at He Wenxiu with some grievances, and said in his heart: Now the engineering team is cleaning up the ruins of Jakarta day and night! At least it won't be until next month until the streets of the former Doge's Palace cleared.
"The old doesn't go, the new doesn't. It's okay to break it! Just in time we built a new city! Situ Nan smiled and said to Situ Meiden, "Uncle, didn't you say last time that you wanted to change the name of Jakarta?" How about Jakarta changing its name to New Tangshan? β
"New Tangshan?" Everyone's eyes lit up. looked at Situ Nan with some delight.
They also feel that the name Jakarta is a bit awkward, and it is different with the new Tangshan. Tangshan is the name of the motherland by overseas Chinese, which is widely popular in the Nanyang area, and countless Chinese workers have become their hometown Tangshan.
The meaning of Tang characters in the Chinese world is heavy, and words such as Chinatown, Tangren, and Tangshan often appear in the Chinese mouth, almost becoming a name similar to religion, which has a special feeling.
"New Tangshan not only represents that we are Chinese, but also distinguishes us from our hometown. The new character represents a new life, a new Chinese world.
It's like bankrupt Europeans go to the Americas, they call Europe the Old Continent, and Europeans call America the New World. But whether it is the New World or the Old World, they are actually one and inextricably linked.
I think that South China and the motherland should maintain similar relations. I'm going to donate a big lighthouse to the port outside, and I've got a name in mind. It's called the New Tang Lighthouse. The meaning is simple, just like the Statue of Liberty outside the harbor of New York, but it has to be taller and grander than the Statue of Liberty!
Passing ships. Chinese people with dreams have crossed the ocean from their hometown to the South Seas. As long as they see the high lighthouse of New Tangshan, it will light up the hope in their hearts. A whole new world is about to unfold for them! β
After speaking, Situ Nan closed his eyes, with infinite longing in his heart. He still remembers the indescribable complicated feelings in his heart when he set foot in New York ten years ago and looked back at the Statue of Liberty.
After the shipwreck, he was touched by the Statue of Liberty, but he felt that something was still a little bit missing. Now he has finally found it, that is New Tangshan, New Tangshan Lighthouse!
"Bang Bang!"
A burst of warm applause woke Situ Nan from his surging conjecture, and he opened his eyes to see smiling faces with the same feelings.
They were not only moved by the name New Tangshan, but also by the faint nostalgia, longing, confusion, firmness and hope that Situ Nan revealed.
New Tangshan, they will be the first in the future, this is the positioning of the founders of South China on themselves.
"Good! I'm not used to those awkward Malay names, and I think in the future we need to change the cities of Nanhua to Chinese names. Huang Sande said with a smile.
"That's right, we must maintain Chinese culture, and we must use our culture to assimilate those indigenous people, not like those Nyonya, who can't even speak Chinese well." Situ Nan nodded.
When it comes to culture, it touches the g-spot in the hearts of these people, and they forget about the topic of transportation construction for a while.
"There is a saying that there is no China after Yashan, which is a bit extreme, but I think after the Mongol invasion, Chinese culture is indeed faulty. The Zhu dynasty suppressed cultural people and did not inherit Chinese culture well.
Not to mention the Qing Dynasty, Chinese culture was changed beyond recognition, and the history books were revised, that is, only Aixin Jueluo and those traitors and slaves dared to do it, except for the tyrant Qin Shi Huang, no one dared to be so shameless!
But they're done now, and there's no need to talk about it. However, inheriting and developing Chinese culture, especially the profound and profound Han and Tang cultures, should be the unshirkable responsibility of our children and grandchildren.
Of course, after a thousand years, we can't find back the splendid culture of the Han and Tang dynasties, and many excellent things have been annihilated in the long river of history. Today, we are more or less influenced by Western culture, but we are not Westerners at all, and we do not believe in God.
The times force us to learn from the West, and we will certainly become more and more Westernized in the future, and these are all superficial, just like I am proficient in English, eat steak, and live like an American, but deep down, I can rarely resonate with God's people! β
Situ Nan said with a feeling in his heart, and he was completely open at this moment.
The cultural future of Nanhua will definitely integrate the essence of the East and the West, to put it bluntly, it is an embarrassing role in the middle, and only by digging out the essence that resonates with the hearts of all Chinese people from the depths of Chinese culture can we support the continued development and growth of Nanhua's culture.
In the bottom of his heart, Situ Nan never thought that the world in his previous life could effectively inherit Chinese culture, and after several tosses, Chinese culture had already been disconnected several times.
Now that there is a chance to appear in Nanhua, he doesn't want to miss this opportunity and wants to do something. Although Situ Nan hated Japan, he hoped that Nanhua would be like Japan, while preserving its own traditional culture and carrying it forward.
In this regard, decades later, South Korea has also done well, although the methods are a little dirty and shameless, but it is not possible to be for the attitude of others.
"What do you mean?" Situ Meiden looked at Situ Nan's eyes flashing with a glimmer of light, and he knew that this nephew must have a lot of ideas in his heart.
"Rob people, grab things! What the Americans get from Europe, we get from the Motherland? Situ Nan said with a firm face.
Hearing him say this, the people's minds were clear. They don't know what Situ Nan said about snatching, not snatching, but rescue!
The Japanese and Europeans are wantonly plundering China's cultural relics, and the Chinese themselves are destroying their own cultural relics, if history has not changed, the more things left to the motherland, the worse those cultural treasures will end, because some people will not cherish it!
Situ Nan can only force himself to be an unscrupulous descendant, since the eldest son doesn't cherish it, then Nanhua is the second, just take away the things of the ancestors!
These are all things that will happen in the future, but Situ Nan knows that with the Harmony Divine Beast, history will not and will never allow a turn to happen that is unfavorable to them.
Situ Nan, who was worried about this, was very helpless, and his methods were also very shameless, he cleared his throat and said: "Maybe you don't know that in the past few years, the little emperor Man'er, who has been in the Forbidden City, has sold national treasures on a large scale, and secretly transferred the national treasures in the palace to the concession.
The guards ignored it, the palace maids and eunuchs participated, and the messy Forbidden City was full of thieves. The treasures accumulated by our ancestors over the past hundred years are now only empty houses. β
Situ Nan said sadly.
His words caused a wave of wow, and everyone was indignant.
"No! This can't be left that way! Huang Sande shouted, "Wenxiu, even if you send an army to rob it, you have to grab it back." β
"Aren't we the invading powers?" He Wenxiu said lightly, his lips cracked slightly, and he pointed at Situ Nandao, "Maybe someone has already made the first move?" β
Oh!
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, looking at Situ Nan and suddenly realized. With Situ Nan's untreasured and non-greedy personality, since he knew about the loss of cultural relics in the Forbidden City, he naturally would not stand idly by.
"Huh! I do have some things in my hand that I will donate later, but I think the treasure is dead, and the talent is important. The environment of the motherland is not good, but there are a large number of academic masters, they are all treasures, and they can just educate Nanhua. Speaking of which, the Chinese world in Nanyang is really a cultural desert! β
Situ Nan sighed.
"That's right. We really need to attract more talent, especially those who have real materials. The environment of the motherland is not good, too many people are depressed, and we just provide them with the opportunity to show their ambitions, I believe that as long as we are sincere, there will be many people who are willing to come to South China. β
Wu Liande, Minister of Education and Health, echoed, he paused for a moment and looked at Situ Nan with some expectation, "However, after discussing it for several days, it seems that there is nothing to say about investing in education?" If you don't have a university or a research unit, you'll turn around and leave when you come? β
Nanhua's funds are indeed very tight, and the steel industry, transportation plans, social reforms, and other problems have not yet been resolved, and it is really difficult for Wu Liande to fight for that small amount of funds.
The company has money, but it is stingy with education. In fact, it is not stingy with education, Meihua has built a lot of literacy classes, night schools, and vocational schools, but they are all for internal digestion, and even fewer are willing to allocate them to the Ministry of Education and Health.
