Chapter 152: The Chinese Delegation Arrives in Berlin!
The second more is coming. Thank you for the reward of the classic string of balls!
On July 23, the Chinese Olympic delegation will arrive in Berlin, and Cheng Tianfang, the ambassador of the Republic of China to Germany, led the representatives of Chinese expatriates and students in Germany to the station to greet them, and Mo Qichao is also in the welcoming queue.
He also has another nickname is "Mr. Mo", which is the grandfather of Xi'er and Sister Tingchao. As an active fundraiser for the Olympic delegation, he is also very interested in the country's competition in the Berlin Olympics, coming to Europe three months in advance to prepare for the upcoming delegation, such as food, travel, media coverage after settling in the Olympic Village, etc.
The Mo family's industry was carried forward in his hands, and laid the foundation for the industry to spread to all over the world, it can be said that his life in the shopping mall is extremely legendary, but for some reasons, he died of old age in a foreign country, and he was unable to return to the old house in Shu'an Mountain. Xi'er said that he heard his grandfather say that Mr. Mo Da sat on the beach every day, looking at the invisible land in the east of the sea, and sat all day long, muttering to himself, crying when he was sad, no one could persuade him, for the homeland that he could never return. Although by the 70s, the family was already a rich country, but the wealth that could not be squandered in ten lifetimes had no meaning for a dying old man, and he said that no matter how delicious things were, they could not compare to the paste pot cooked in the big iron pot that the old house had fed for generations...... Therefore, at that time, he had already named his future grandchildren, Wen Tao, Linhai, and Listen to the Tide...... Until the last name, "Xi'er", was used twenty years after his death, and the hope was that one day the tide would bring his endless thoughts back to the other side of the sea, and at that time the waves would no longer block his small wishes......
After the 80s, the Mo family, like others, was finally allowed to return to their hometown, but the person who was most deeply involved in their hometown was no longer alive, which is embarrassing. Xi'er is also like other brothers and sisters, when she grows up, she will be "forced" to leave the life of BMW carving cars and go back to the "eerie" old house to live for a while.
Then, she met Lu Zhuhu.
It's just that Xi'er thinks the old house is very interesting, why do you say "gloomy" and "tattered"?
At this time, of course, Mr. Mo Da did not have the ability to predict the future, he was in his forties, steady and low-key, with the distinctive characteristics of old-school Chinese, and often wore traditional robes in Europe - only today in order to attend this solemn occasion, he also changed into a suit.
At 9 o'clock in the morning, the train loaded with Chinese athletes arrived at Berlin Station, and when they stepped off the train, Li Huitang, as the flag bearer, carried the national flag and led the Chinese delegation out of the station. Ambassador to Germany Cheng Tianfang, representatives of the German government, overseas Chinese, and more than 300 Chinese students who had been waiting for a long time gave huge cheers and applause.
"Guangliang, you're finally here!" Cheng Tianfang laughed and hurried to greet him. looked at Lu Zhuhu behind Li Huitang, and said with a smile: "The captives have also arrived?" Lu Zhuhu was amazed and said, "Does Ambassador Cheng still know me?" Li Huitang looked back and smiled: "You forgot? When we were teaching more than 10 years ago, Ambassador Cheng had just returned from studying in the United States to be a lecturer, and sometimes he came to see us practice and play. Lu Zhuhu thought to himself: Is there anything else going on? How come I don't remember......
"Brother Lu, you forget how forgetful, I still remember that we are fellow countrymen......"
"In front of the ambassador, I dare to say that I am a noble person - and how does the ambassador know our 'fellow countryman'...... "I am not your habit at this time, and when I come up, I will say which person I am......
He is not, but others are, Ambassador Cheng smiled heartily: "I am a newcomer in Nanchang, as soon as Brother Lu's accent comes out, don't you think we talk very similarly!" ”
Hearing that the other party had changed to a dialect, Lu Zhuhu couldn't help laughing.
Ambassador Cheng is also a good person, he just arrived in Germany in January this year, and he is the first Chinese ambassador to Germany? Germany is an important country for the Nationalist Government to seek foreign aid on the international anti-Japanese front, and the relationship between the two countries is also quite close at this time. Defense? Foreign ministry? The Ministry of Economic Affairs participated in the annual congress of the German National Socialist Party twice, and because of his efforts, in the early days of the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Germany still provided arms supplies and military advisers to China, which aroused strong dissatisfaction in Japan, and finally under the threat of Japan's withdrawal from the German-Japanese defense agreement, China and Germany gradually parted ways.
He has also served as president of Zhejiang University, Sichuan University, and Anhui University.
The three of them chatted happily, but they left the others out in the cold. Ambassador Cheng hurriedly stopped to reminisce and introduced the President of the German Olympic Committee, Halanto, and other government officials, who had also come to welcome him, and then Halant also delivered a welcome speech to the Chinese delegation on behalf of the German government.
Taking advantage of Harlan's eloquent conversation, Ambassador Cheng pointed to Mr. Mo Da beside him and said: "This is Mr. Mo Qichao - this time you are living and traveling in Germany, he has made a lot of contributions, many of which are sponsored by him personally, I am afraid that you are not used to eating and drinking in Germany, and he also specially invited two chefs from China!" ”
Mr. Mo Da smiled and said, "Ambassador Cheng's words are serious, and it is just a gesture. Our Olympians can win glory for our country in the international arena, and those of us who are working abroad are also honored. ”
Lu Zhuhu was taken aback, Qi Chan - if it is not the same name, then this is not Xi'er's grandfather! How did you meet him in Berlin?
What surprised Lu Zhuhu even more was that Mr. Mo's appearance, how could Xi'er's grandfather have such a face?
His old mansion in the Mo family - later became an attraction, and he saw the portrait of Mr. Big - it doesn't look like it at all!
This is the first time Lu Zhuhu has seen him in person, how can he say it......
is Mr. Mo Da, who missed the motherland in Xi'er's mouth and died of depression, with a mixed-race face......
But after thinking about it carefully, I have a little bit of a figured out: listening to Sister Chao's clear and slightly blue eyes like lake water, they are clearly carved out of the same mold as Mr. Mo Da, Lu Zhuhu thought it looked strange at the time, but now it seems that there is an "atavism"!
It's just that Xi'er doesn't have a trace of this phenomenon, but she just doesn't look like it, and her personality is different from the liveliness of domestic girls......
Lu Zhuhu was surprised by Mr. Moda's face, so that he didn't even hear Haranto's speech clearly.
Afterwards, the athletes took a bus organized by Mr. Mo Da to the Olympic Village, 30 kilometers away from the city of Berlin.
Li Huitang still served as the flag bearer, and the flag-raising ceremony was held outside the Olympic stadium, ranking 24th on a first-come, first-served basis - Lu Zhuhu felt a little strange, he wore the number 24 when he was not playing in the national team.
On this day, Chu Anping wrote in the center of the manuscript sent back to the "Central Daily": "When our group walked into the platform, the cheers shook the sky and the national flag fluttered......
In fact, not only him, but also the Chinese delegation that first arrived in Berlin also left a deep impression on reporters from other countries: the uniform uniforms, the neat team, and the energetic and confident athletes made the reporters from all over the world secretly agree in their hearts. The next day, the German newspapers also said in a tone of approval: We did not expect that China would send so many athletes to participate in the Olympic Games. The debut of the Chinese athletes in Berlin was very successful.
