Chapter 112 Soldiers without pay (asking for a monthly pass)

Kishi Kishi looked solemn, he thought that there was a spy on the Japanese side, and then leaked the news to China, so the Chinese newspapers would report on the fact that the puppet "Manchukuo" was going to participate in the Olympic Games.

Japan does have plans in this regard, because Japan can't wait to separate the Manchurian and Mongolian regions from China, and it also very much hopes that the international community can support the puppet Manchurian puppet regime supported by Japan. Then, as "Manchukuo," participating in some international affairs is obviously a good way to gain international recognition.

Obviously, the Olympic Games is an international event of great significance, and the Olympics have always boasted that they are games that do not involve politics and simply promote peace, and the chances of the puppet "Manchukuo" successfully participating in it are much greater.

As early as February, the Japanese frequently went to Liu Changchun's home, hoping that Liu Changchun's father could persuade Liu Changchun to return to Northeast China and then participate in the Olympic Games as a "Manchukuo" athlete. Liu Changchun's father was so frightened that he finally had to move to escape. This plan of the Japanese has also been planned for a long time.

However, China and Japan are still negotiating an armistice agreement, and in order to gain more benefits at the negotiating table, Japan should not add fuel to the fire at this time, so the plan to allow the puppet "Manchukuo" to participate in the Olympic Games has not yet been formally implemented. Moreover, this plan is known only to the Japanese, and the so-called politicians of the puppet "Manchukuo" are also unaware of it.

But now that the Chinese know about it, and the Chinese media are reporting it on a large scale, Kishi's reaction is, of course, that there are traitors on the Japanese side and leak the news.

Historically, in May, Japan instructed the puppet "Manchukuo" to sign up for the Los Angeles Olympics, but because Chen Qiang made a move to break the news to the media in advance, it was only in March, and the news spread throughout China.

The plan that Japan had previously designated was completely disrupted, and Kishi Kishi suddenly felt very passive.

"President, now that Manchuria is participating in the Olympic Games, there is a lot of trouble in China, what should we do? Do you want to put this plan on hold for now? Kenjiro Nakano asked from the side.

Kishi Kiyoichi shook his head very resolutely: "No, this plan must not be shelved, 'Manchukuo' must sign up for the Olympic Games, even if it doesn't work out in the end, we must show an attitude, we must let the international community know that 'Manchukuo' and China are not the same country!" 'Manchukuo' existed independently. This is at stake in the future strategy of the Empire, and we must not give up halfway! ”

"But now that the Chinese side knows about this, they will definitely respond." Kenjiro Nakano spoke.

"There is a saying in China that the arrow has to be sent when the arrow is ready to be struck, and since we have already caught the string by surprise, we don't have to hide it, just advance the plan, and you immediately notify Manchuria and let them go to the US consulate and sign up for this year's Los Angeles Olympics." Kishi Kiyoi said very resolutely.

……

Soon after, the puppet "Manchukuo" received an order from the Japanese side, and the puppet "Manchukuo" "Foreign Minister" Xie Kai-shek personally went to the US Consulate in Harbin to propose to participate in the Los Angeles Olympics in the name of "Manchukuo" and to register Liu Changchun and Yu Xiwei!

At this time, Yu Xiwei was still staying in the Northeast, and Liu Changchun ran to Beiping with the teachers and students of Northeastern University after "918".

When Liu Changchun learned that the Japanese wanted him to represent the puppet "Manchukuo" in the Olympic Games, he was furious and directly issued a statement in the newspaper: "If the conscience of the remnants is still there, and the blood is still flowing, how can we forget the motherland and become a puppet puppet country!"

Liu Changchun's statement was a blow to the Japanese aggressors.

The U.S. Consulate also informed the government of the Republic of China of the news that the puppet "Manchukuo" had signed up for the Los Angeles Olympics as early as possible.

This time, the government of the Republic of China can no longer bury its head in the soil as an ostrich, and the puppet Manchurian puppet regime's signing up for the Los Angeles Olympics is already 100 percent stone-hammered, although the United States has always said that it does not recognize the puppet "Manchukuo", but who knows what the International Olympic Committee thinks?

Besides, the Americans have informed the government of the Republic of China, if the government of the Republic of China does not take some practical action, it will really be a bucket that cannot be helped!

……

Luoyang, the temporary office of the Executive Yuan, President Wang Sanshui of the Executive Yuan looked at Vice Minister Duan with a serious face.

"Deputy Chief Duan, can't your Ministry of Education even handle this little matter? Do you want to ask me specifically? The focus of my work now is on negotiating with the Japanese, and this is a major matter related to the survival of the country and the nation! Participating in the Olympics is such a small thing, you Ministry of Education can do it yourself! Dean Wang said with an unkind face.

"What the dean said is that the dean is guilty of lowly duties, and it is the lowly duties that disturb the dean!" Deputy Minister Duan of the Ministry of Education hurriedly said.

Vice Chief Duan's attitude of taking the initiative to admit his mistakes made Dean Wang's face soften a lot.

I saw that Deputy Chief Duan cautiously asked: "Dean Wang, please forgive me for being stupid, I came here this time mainly to ask for instructions, should we participate in this year's Los Angeles Olympics?" ”

"Participate, definitely have to participate! Since the puppet Manchuria is going to participate in the Olympics, how can we sit idly by! Dean Wang paused, and then said: "I heard that the puppet Manchuria has registered two athletes from the Northeast, so let's have a 'plan for the plan', and let these two people represent my China to attend the Olympic Games, so that the conspiracy of the puppet will be self-defeating!" ”

"What a clever plan!" Duan Xiaochang first slapped a sycophant, and then said with some embarrassment: "It's just a matter of funding......

"Funding? What kind of funding? What kind of funds do you need to go to the U.S. Embassy and register for my country? Do I still need an entry fee for the Olympic Games? Dean Wang asked.

"Report to the dean, this Olympic Games are held in Los Angeles, the United States, the round-trip ferry ticket to the United States, the cost of food and accommodation in the United States, and some miscellaneous expenses, one person will cost at least tens of thousands of oceans! I don't know where to get this part of the funds from! Duan said.

A trip to the United States, back and forth plus room and board and miscellaneous expenses, of course, it can't cost so much money, but Vice Minister Duan deliberately said more, so that when the goose plucks the feathers, when the fat is in hand, the Ministry of Education can also have a handful of oil in hand, and this year's Ministry of Education can also have more funds, maybe it can pay the salaries owed to the teachers of the Central University.

However, Dean Wang said: "Now that the finances are so tight, how can there be money allocated to your Ministry of Education." ”

"Without funds, how can my country's athletes go to the United States!" Duan Chang spoke.

Dean Wang replied impatiently: "I just asked you to sign up, did you really say that you want to send athletes to the United States to compete!" ”

"Huh?" Duan Cichang opened his mouth wide, looking like he didn't know why.

Dean Wang's tone was even more impatient, and he continued: "In the rules of this Olympic Games, I didn't say that I must go to participate if I have registered!" When my country signed up for the Olympics, I came to give an explanation to the people in the country, so that those students would not continue to make trouble; Second, to express to the international community our country's attitude, we resolutely do not recognize the puppet "Manchukuo"; Third, it is to thwart the conspiracy of the Japanese puppets to push the puppet "Manchukuo" into international activities. If you reach these goals, then you can do it, as for whether our athletes can go to Los Angeles to compete, it doesn't matter! Our focus now is still on negotiations with the Japanese. ”

Duan nodded suddenly, but said secretly in his heart: "I didn't expect this kind of operation!" If you don't spend a penny and take advantage of all the cheap, it's no wonder you can be the head of the Executive Yuan! ”

……

The next day, Deputy Director Duan invited Zhang Boling to the temporary office of the Ministry of Education.

"Principal Zhang, good news! These days, I have been grinding hard and foaming, and my mouth is about to wear out, and I finally got through the above work, and I relented and agreed to send athletes to participate in the Los Angeles Olympics! Duan Cichang took all the credit for himself in one sentence.

"Only by believing in you can you have a ghost!" Zhang Boling said secretly in his heart.

Zhang Boling often raises donations in order to run education, and people from all walks of life have seen a lot, of course he knows that Duan Cichang does not have half the truth in his mouth, and Chinese athletes can participate in the Olympic Games, or the big man above is relieved, and Duan Cichang has nothing to do with half a dime.

However, Zhang Boling's heart is still very excited, Chinese athletes can finally appear in the Olympic Games!

I only heard Deputy Chief Duan continue: "Principal Zhang, I don't know much about signing up for the Olympics, Principal Zhang should be the authority in China in this regard, and I'm afraid I have to bother Principal Zhang when I encounter this registration!" ”

"Don't worry, this matter is on me, although my old bones are not of much use, but there is no problem in doing this kind of thing, I will definitely handle the registration properly." Zhang Boling said.

"Then bother Principal Zhang to sign up for Liu Changchun and Yu Xiwei." As Duan said, he picked up the teacup and put on a posture to send off the guests.

Zhang Boling didn't say goodbye immediately, he asked: "Deputy Chief Duan, dare to ask if the athletes sent to Los Angeles this time are only Liu Changchun and Yu Xiwei?" ”

"Yes, didn't the puppet "Manchukuo" send these two people? These two people are both Chinese athletes, how can they represent the puppet "Manchukuo" to participate in the Olympics, so my country also has to register these two people and let them represent our China in the competition, so that the Japanese puppet conspiracy will be self-defeating! Duan said.

"What about Chen Qiang?" Zhang Boling asked a little eagerly: "Chen Qiang is the fastest in Asia, the Asian record holder, he is the best athlete in China, and the athlete with the most hope of winning medals in the Olympic Games, he must go to the Olympics!" ”

"Chen Qiang?" Duan Cichang thought about it and felt that he seemed to have some impression of Chen Qiang.

Zhang Boling went on to say: "Deputy Chief Duan, at the commendation meeting of the last Far Eastern Games, you also personally met Chen Qiang. ”

"Oh, I remember, it's the guy who said he didn't have the money to go to college! He ended up going to your Nankai University, right? Duan finally remembered Chen Qiang.

"Yes, that's him." Zhang Boling continued: "In the past two years, Chen Qiang has defeated strong opponents from Japan and Britain in a row, and Britain's world champion Eric Lidtier has also lost at the hands of Chen Qiang. ”

The deputy minister lowered his head and thought about it, anyway, the Ministry of Education does not plan to really send athletes to the United States to compete, no matter how many people sign up, the Ministry of Education does not have to pay a penny.

"One more person to sign up, then one more, originally this registration matter, also had to be handed over to Zhang Boling, when he signed up, fill in the name of one more person, I don't know, it's better to agree directly, the right is to send Zhang Boling a favor." Anyway, no matter how many people sign up, they don't need to be paid by the Ministry of Education. ”

Thinking of this, Vice Chief Duan nodded: "Since Principal Zhang strongly recommends it, let's add this Chen Qiang!" I hope he will live up to President Zhang's expectations, run good results, and win glory for the country! ”

……

Zhang Boling was able to complete the registration of athletes very easily, and with the help of Wang Zhengting, a member of the International Olympic Committee, the whole registration process was very smooth.

The registration deadline for the 1932 Los Angeles Olympics was June 18, and when Liu Changchun signed up in history, it had exceeded this time, and under the operation of Zhang Boling and others, the International Olympic Committee decided to accommodate Liu Changchun and allow Liu Changchun to participate.

And now that the registration deadline for the Olympic Games is still very early, the registration process is naturally smooth sailing. Zhang Boling sent a telegram directly through the U.S. Embassy to the Olympic Organizing Committee of the Los Angeles Olympics to register Chinese athletes.

The U.S. Embassy's telegraph line was really fast, and within a few days, the U.S. side replied that it agreed to allow the Chinese athletes to participate.

Holding the Olympic Games is a matter of saving face, and as the organizers, they naturally hope to make it as lively as possible, and when someone comes to participate, the US Olympic Organizing Committee is too late to be happy, so it naturally quickly agrees.

After receiving a reply from the United States, Zhang Boling immediately went to the Ministry of Education to find Deputy Chief Duan to report his life.

"Deputy Chief Duan, fortunately, the registration has been arranged, and the United States has also given a reply, and our athletes will also participate in the Los Angeles Olympics." Zhang Boling said excitedly.

"Great, I knew that Principal Zhang would definitely succeed if he took action personally!" Duan Jichang deliberately put on a happy look.

Zhang Boling also felt that Duan Cichang's smile was a little too fake.

However, Zhang Boling didn't care, many of the officials in this government are hypocritical, one thing in front of them and one thing behind the other, that's all normal things, if Duan Cichang's true feelings are revealed, Zhang Boling will not be adaptable.

The two exchanged a few pleasantries, but Deputy Director Duan never mentioned the matter of funding, and finally Zhang Boling couldn't help it and asked: "Deputy Director Duan, since the registration has been completed and the United States has agreed, I don't know when the funds for going to the United States will be approved?" ”

"Funding?" Duan Chang smiled and said, "There is no funding. ”

Zhang Boling's heart suddenly rose badly, and he hurriedly asked: "Deputy Chief Duan, since you want to send athletes to the United States to participate in the Olympic Games, how can you do it without funds?" ”

"President Zhang, let's be honest, now that the country's finances are tight, the Ministry of Education really can't come up with the funds to let my country's athletes go to the United States to compete." Deputy Chief Duan said unhurriedly.

"If you don't have the money to participate, what's the point of signing up for the Olympics!" Zhang Boling said sharply, the old man was really angry.

"Of course, it is meaningful, through this registration for the Olympics, we have thwarted the conspiracy of the Japanese puppet, and we have also expressed to the international community that we will never recognize the puppet 'Manchukuo'!" Duan Jichang's tone was still very calm, as if he had already thought of his words.

"You can also give an explanation to the people by the way, so that those students don't continue to make trouble, right?" Zhang Boling snorted coldly. At this time, he had completely seen through the intention of the Ministry of Education, the so-called registration was nothing more than to meet political needs, and perfunctory to the common people, they had no intention of sending athletes to the Olympics at all!

was told by Zhang Boling, Duan Cichang smiled awkwardly: "Principal Zhang, don't blame me for this matter, I was also ordered to do it." Now that the national crisis is at hand, it is indeed not a good time to participate in the Olympic Games. Personally, I really hope that our athletes can go to the Olympic Games, come back with a gold medal, and win glory for the country, but the situation does not allow it, and the above does not approve funds, and I am also a clever woman who has no rice to cook! ”

When he allowed athletes to participate in the Olympic Games, he said how hard he had worked to get it, but when it came time to pay for it, he became "ordered to do it" again, and the lack of funds had nothing to do with him.

Zhang Boling has lived for such a long time and experienced so many things, how could he not see through this, he knew that this was just Duan Cichang's prevarication, and he was even more disappointed at this time.

"Okay, I got it. I won't bother the second chief, farewell! Zhang Boling looked gloomy and got up to leave.

……

In Tianjin, Chen Qiang has received a telegram from Zhang Boling, knowing that the registration for the Olympic Games has been successful, and he can represent China and appear on the stage of the Olympic Games!

"Sure enough, as recorded in my history, as long as it is revealed that the fake 'Manchukuo' will send athletes to participate in the Olympic Games, the government of the Republic of China really can't sit still and will immediately follow up."

At this time, Chen Qiang couldn't hide his excitement in his heart, for any athlete, representing his country in the Olympic Games is a lifelong dream, and Chen Qiang is no exception.

Chen Qiang in his previous life had envied him countless times, and those athletes who could stand on the Olympic stage had also fantasized countless times that if he could be on the Olympic Games, it would be good!

Now, Chen Qiang's dream has finally come true!

No! To be precise, the first step was achieved, and the registration was successful.

Chen Qiang knew that he would face the biggest problem in the United States, that is, the problem of participation funds.

In the 1932 Los Angeles Games, although the Ministry of Education of the Republic of China sent athletes to participate, it was a dime a dime, and not a penny of funds was paid.

In the end, Zhang Shaoshuai paid 8,000 oceans for Liu Changchun and his coach Song Junfu to go to the United States to compete, and after the competition, Liu Changchun did not have enough money to return to China, relying on the donations of local overseas Chinese, he successfully returned to China.

Two people are 8,000 oceans, an average of 4,000 oceans per person, in the end it is not enough, and you have to rely on other people's donations to return to China.

Chen Qiang doesn't know how much money Liu Changchun was missing when he returned to China in history, but according to Chen Qiang's estimates, if he goes to the United States to participate in the Olympics, he must prepare at least 5,000 to 6,000 oceans. After all, when you go out, you don't panic when you have money in your hands.

And this is the first time that Chinese have participated in the Olympic Games, and they will have to participate in the appearance ceremony, so they must prepare a dress. At the Olympics in this era, there will be a formal ball, and a tuxedo must be prepared. In addition, miscellaneous clothing, food and accommodation also cost money. According to this calculation, 6,000 oceans are a little nervous.

Now Chen Qiang, but he can't even take out 2,000 oceans!

"Gotta find a way to make money!" Chen Qiang thought to himself in his heart.
