In the blink of an eye, in September 1903, Sun Yuanqi stayed in the United States for three months, packed his bags, and embarked on the return journey back to China. Zhou Zongwu, Chen Jide, Pan Xian and other students, who were only getting better in the laboratory, decided to stay in the United States to study for a period of time after telegraphing and contacting their parents in China, and then return to China together by this time next year.

Liu Bin was not so lucky, obediently escorted three sets of radio broadcasting equipment and some replacement parts, and set off with Sun Yuanqi and Tony. As Tony said, MIT and the big chaebol were overjoyed when they heard that Sun Yuanqi was willing to give up the ownership of the patent in Europe and the United States in exchange for the right to use it in the Far East.

Tony was also agitated, saying that his father, Lilith, and several other investors would come up with a sum of money, and the company would be considered an eyebrow. Sun Yuanqi, who became a shareholder of patented technology, took the name of American citizen Yanke? Johnson's name, with a 26% stake, is the company's largest shareholder after Tony. Mr. Bergman, Lilith and others shared the remaining equity according to the investment quota.

Tony's gold panning in the Far East was by no means a blind action. On the day he learned that he had obtained the right to manage the Far East, he left his other work and went to the library to find all the materials about the distant and mysterious East, from folklore and climate to geography and history, and began a grand plan. While the train was still wriggling on the trans-American railroad, Tony already had an idea.

He took the map of the Far East and found Sun Yuanqi excitedly: "Tuoke, although I don't know much about the Far East, and I have only gained some superficial understanding through written materials, I think that if our company wants to gain a foothold in the Far East and develop smoothly, the initial company layout will play a vital role. Since we have obtained the right to use patents in the Far East, the two most important countries in the Far East, China and the Philippines, must be taken into account. Whereas, both countries are more authoritarian these days. We had to avoid the political center in favor of a more commercial city, relying on commercial income to allow the company to quickly accumulate capital, and then consider the strategy of other important cities. After weighing up, my opinion is to choose these two cities. As he spoke, he drew two circles on the map.

When Sun Yuanqi looked closely, it turned out to be Osaka and Shanghai, China.

As for Osaka, because I don't know much about it, I naturally don't have a say: but in China, I chose Shanghai to pilot. Definitely very sensible. Some people may ask: At that time, will anyone in Shanghai be willing to spend money to do it? The answer is a resounding yes.

Open the 1903 "Declaration", you will find that any issue of the newspaper, at least 60% of the page, what is the first magic remedy for women leucorrhoea, a point of divine oil, opium eaters must try. There is everything, almost no different from the small advertisements in the station nowadays.

As a reader of "Declaration" and "Zilinxi Daily", Sun Yuanqi naturally knew this, so he admired Tony's business ability even more. Look at Sun Yuan's starting point. Tony also said: As a wholly-owned subsidiary of Far East Broadcasting Group, it is called China Broadcasting Corporation in Shanghai, referred to as CBC; In Osaka, it's called Broadcasting Company, or jBC for short. You're okay with that, right?

CBC doesn't talk about it first, just listening to the abbreviation of this broadcasting company jB and C, Sun Yuanqi will not object. After talking about some more related matters, Tony went happily.

As for Liu Bin, who is not idle for a moment, he will also have fun for himself. When I have nothing to do, I turn on an instrument and ponder it there against the drawings. From time to time, I write and draw, and occasionally I take down the parts and look at them carefully. Whenever this happens, Sun Yuanqi feels frightened, for fear that one day Liu Bin will find him: Sir, I'm sorry, there is a missing part in this instrument! Or: Hey, sir, there's an extra part in this instrument! “

When arriving in Sanpan City, Sun Yuanqi unexpectedly met an acquaintance at the train station: Liang Qichao.

Seeing Sun Yuanqi's stunned expression. Liang Qichao, who was carrying the cards to pick up people, leaned forward and leaned back with a smile: Baixi, how about the taste of meeting old acquaintances in a foreign country, compared to the candle night in the cave room?

Sun Yuanqi then remembered that when he was in Yueben, Ma Junwu told himself that Ren Gong went to the United States in March and April. At that time, Liu Bin also said that he might be able to meet him on the other side of the ocean. It turned out that he was really blindfolded!

Before the two finished their greetings, Liu Bin, who had been urging Lifu to carry the equipment, also rushed over when he heard the news, staring at Liang Qichao's head left and right.

Sun Yuanqi said: Ji Fu, don't hurry up and see Mr. Liang! “

Liu Bin stepped forward quickly. Holding Liang Qichao's hand tightly, his eyes still stayed on the left and right of Liang Qichao's head: Mr. Liang. Your head is not flesh and blood, it must be made of gold, worth 100,000 taels of silver! So, be sure to take care! “

Liang Qichao laughed. Sun Yuanqi couldn't cry or laugh, and he couldn't say much in front of everyone, so he had to look at Liu Bin fiercely: Boy, wait for the autumn queen to settle the account! Frightened, Liu Bin ran away to take care of the equipment.

Everything was arranged, and the two of them found a secluded place in the hotel and talked loudly. Only then did Sun Yuanqi know that Liang Qichao had originally traveled to the Americas at the invitation of the American Royalist Society and inspected the democratic republican form of government. Sanpan City is the place with the largest number of Chinese, and it is also the headquarters of the American Royalist Society, so Liang Qichao stayed here.

Although Mr. Bergman's words made Sun Yuanqi dispel the idea of entering politics, it did not affect his curiosity about politics, and he asked repeatedly: "Ren Gong, what have you gained from this investigation?"

The harvest is not counted, but I have some feelings, talk to Baixi, and hope to correct more. Liang Qichao thought for a moment, and then said: "When I used to read books in Europe and the United States, I always said that the democratic republic was good. At that time, it was just a façade, and I didn't see what happened to the country, so it was not good to comment on it. When I came to the United States this time, I finally saw the real situation, and when I looked back, I realized that the democratic republic was formed by the specific historical environment, and it was not a national system that was universally accepted, at least not for China. “

Oh? Sun Yuanqi was hoked by Liang Qichao's words.

Liang Qichao analyzed: This democratic republic first appeared in Europe, such as England, France, Germany, etc., the area is less than that of a Chinese province, and the people are mostly of the same race. If the land is small, the lords of the lower ranks rarely have the ambition of independence: if they are of the same clan, it is easy for everyone to unify and achieve. This is the foundation for the practice of democratic republics in European countries.

As for the United States and Canada in the Americas, they are both in a superior environment, vast and sparsely populated, and everyone's life is relatively rich and stable, and their desires are easily satisfied. In addition, there is almost no invasion by foreign enemies, and the people's temperament naturally tends to be peaceful. This is the foundation of the democratic republic in the Americas.

Looking back at China, we have a large population, a complex environment, different races, and different customs in five miles and ten miles in different customs. If democracy is practiced, and 40,000,000 people across the country resign, then 'the discussion is pending and the troops have already crossed the river!' If democracy is implemented, more than 20 provinces and autonomous regions across the country will inevitably support their own troops. Then the division of the feudal town at the end of the Tang Dynasty reappeared! Plus surrounded by great powers. Liang can assert that the day of the implementation of the democratic republic is the time when China divides the beans. “

Sun Yuanqi nodded silently: The implementation of the republican form of government during the Beiyang period led to the separation of the north and the south, and later the names of the Yunnan line, the Gui line, the direct line, the Anhui line, and the Feng system also appeared. After the victory of the Northern Expedition, there were many warlords. Almost all those who had guns drew the boundaries of the ground and started small independent kingdoms. If it weren't for the principal's outstanding political skills, coupled with the grandfather's anger and sweeping thousands of armies, China would be a small European Union now!

Come to think of it. Sun Yuanqi asked: In that case, what kind of political system do you think China should adopt? Liang Qichao said: My point of view is that enlightened autocracy! "Enlightened autocracy? Good! Good! Good! Sun Yuanqi stroked his hand and praised.

In China in 1903, there were two mainstream voices of intellectuals: one was to maintain the existing system, which was mainly held by old-fashioned scholars who had grown up and lived under the existing system for decades, who had a deep affection for the existing system and were unwilling to undergo any changes; The other is the more popular constitutional monarchy in the world, which is supported by most young and middle-aged old-style scholars and new-style school students, and has developed over time. Gradually, it was accepted by the majority of the population. As people said at the time: Today's voice of the constitution is heard all over the country. From the ministers of Xun Qi, and from the bottom of the school building, they did not say that they were constitutional, and they sang a hundred harmonies, and they spoke in unison. As for the faction that later became mainstream, it was still a terrorist organization between 1903 and 1908.

Some readers may be dissatisfied, how can China not overthrow the Manchu rule? It doesn't matter if it's servility, or it's inertia. In fact, after 260 years of rule, the Manchu imperial family was generally accepted and respected by the people. (Just like now.) The vast majority of the people cannot be said to support the existence of the imperial family, or at least not oppose it. So at this time, a constitutional monarchy was in vogue.

However, the royal family was not enthusiastic about a constitutional monarchy. It was felt that the new system had restricted too many privileges of the Manchurian aristocracy, and they often took three steps back, two steps back, or even three steps back. As a result, the people gradually became disillusioned, and some began to gravitate towards **. The people are full of hope and crying out. The responsible cabinet of the Qing Dynasty dragged on and on, and finally came out in May 1911. As a result, in the cabinet of 13 people. There are 8 Manchu nobles, 1 Mongolian nobleman, and only 4 Han people, who account for ninety percent of the country's population, were selected. Among the Manchu aristocracy, the imperial family accounted for another 6 people. Historically known as the Imperial Cabinet.

The most painful thing in the world is not that you can't get what you want, but that you find that it's not what you want after all the hard work you get. At this point, the people were extremely disappointed, completely abandoned the Qing royal family, and began to turn to violence.

Now, when most people are still hovering between maintaining the status quo and a constitutional monarchy, how can Liang Qichao not let Sun Yuanqi admire and praise the basic system of the Celestial Empire when he thinks of the enlightened and autocratic system of the Celestial Empire?

Liang Qichao was very happy to see Sun Yuanqi's approval: When I talked about this system to the Chinese and overseas Chinese in the United States, many people also agreed very much. Broadly speaking, the so-called 'enlightened' means that we should actively introduce advanced things from Europe and the United States, lay off officials, compile cellar inspections, build schools, abolish imperial examinations, build industries, set up factories, build railways, dig coal mines, train new soldiers, build gunboats, and so on! The so-called 'autocracy' is to rebuke the queen and protect the emperor, so that the emperor can control the overall situation, make decisions in the cadre program, play a game of chess in the whole country, and concentrate on doing great things."

At first, he nodded in approval, and when he heard the rebuke of the emperor, Sun Yuanqi gradually opened his eyes wide and opened his mouth wide: This Liang Qichao, wasn't he still a constitutional monarchist who was inclined to ** before, why is he still turning back on history now?

It is said that Liang Qichao is the most unassertive, and when he sees something good, he wants to lean up; When he found that there was a slight problem, he criticized it bitterly. If it sounds good, it is called seeing the wise and thinking together, and if it is not good, it is seeing different thoughts. Especially in this era of change, it is often one idea in three days and one doctrine in five days, which makes people at a loss. He himself said: Maintaining sex and aggressiveness are often at war in the chest, with feelings, and the attachment is often contradictory, trying to say to himself: 'I don't hesitate to use my current self to make it difficult for me to be in the past.'" “‘

Liang Qichao is also unlucky, he does not have keen political judgment, but he likes to play politics very much. That's it, the key is to memorize it a little, but every time I play with what others are leftover: He Kang Youwei is engaged in reform and reform, and Grandma Cixi wants absolute monarchy; Strongly advocate the practice of enlightened autocracy. clear

, devoted himself to the constitutional movement, but as a result, Xinhai ** broke out, and Qing zhèngfǔ burp farts cold. After entering the Republic of China, Liang Qichao still did not change his luck, from supporting Yuan to opposing Yuan, from protecting the country to supporting Duan, changing again and again, and finally ending in poor skills. In the end, I had to hide obediently in the study and study knowledge.

Looking at Liang Qichao's political career, it is eight words: the order changes every day, and he does not know the current affairs.

Liang Qichao saw Sun Yuanqi's expression, and stopped talking in a witty manner. Sun Yuanqi explained with some sneer: I thought that the enlightened autocracy you said was the autocracy of an enlightened political party, but I didn't expect it to be the autocracy of an enlightened monarch. “

Liang Qichao blinked: Let the emperor organize a political party, with the emperor as the party leader,

Isn't it all the same when it comes to enlightened autocracy? Big difference! Sun Yuanqi shook his head and said that the so-called autocracy of an enlightened party is to establish a political party composed of elites from all walks of life after overthrowing the monarchy and realizing equality for all. On the premise that the armed forces are nationalized, the people's rights are guaranteed, and other political parties are allowed to participate in and discuss state affairs, autocracy is practiced during the term of office, so that the country can play a game of chess and concentrate its efforts on major affairs. “

Liang Qichao pondered for a long time and said: I think China still needs an emperor! （

At first, he nodded in approval, and when he heard the rebuke of the emperor, Sun Yuanqi gradually opened his eyes wide and opened his mouth wide: This Liang Qichao, wasn't he still a constitutional monarchist who was inclined to ** before, why is he still turning back on history now?

However, the Qing court officially announced that it was ready to imitate the constitution; When he turned to singing the constitution and devoting himself to the constitutional movement, as a result, Xinhai ** broke out, and Qing zhèngfǔ burp farts caught a cold. After entering the Republic of China, Liang Qichao still did not change his luck, from supporting Yuan to opposing Yuan, from protecting the country to supporting Duan, changing again and again, and finally ending in poor skills.
