Chapter 361: New Youth...... (Ask for subscription)

"The Qing Dynasty is finally over."

"Celebrate the whole world and set off firecrackers."

"It's not easy, it's really not easy."

Strictly speaking.

The early Qing Dynasty was still good.

Kangxi, Yongzheng, Qianlong, these three dynasties are all okay.

But.

The early performance of the Qing Dynasty can be no more, and the series of unequal treaties signed at the end of the Qing Dynasty can completely wipe out all the achievements of the Qing Dynasty before. This is not for the Qing Dynasty, it is true for all dynasties. Just like the Southern Song Dynasty, no matter how culturally strong and economically developed the Southern Song Dynasty was. However, when it comes to the Southern Song Dynasty, countless people also have a series of opinions about the Southern Song Dynasty.

Even when the word Song is mentioned, a group of netizens will turn this Song into a coward.

It's just that.

The excitement didn't last long.

Then, a question arose in their minds.

"After the end of the Qing Dynasty, what has become of it?"

As soon as this question comes out.

Many fans in the live broadcast room said: "I want to say that I will definitely be stronger than the Qing Dynasty in the future." ”

"That is, there have been a series of people of insight in the Qing Dynasty, as long as under the leadership of these people of insight, China will definitely be able to rise slowly."

"yes, I think so, too."

It's just that.

The reality is not what everyone thinks.

Chen Fan said: "Although the Qing Dynasty is over, the Qing Dynasty may not be as perfect as we imagined. Everyone doesn't imagine that the Qing Dynasty is over. But has the situation in China as a whole changed? ”

"Not really."

Chen Fan shook his head and said: "Even if the Qing Dynasty abdicated, the strength of China was not strong at that time. Moreover, at this time, the great powers were still eyeing our China. Even, their treaties have not been abolished. In other words, on such a territory as China, he still lives with the armies of a series of great powers. ”

This said.

The crowd chuckled.

Oh, yes.

It seems that some of the joys are too early.

Although the Qing Dynasty ended his rule, he left behind a lot of messes.

"I feel that the situation is more complicated than when the Qing Dynasty was still there."

"I also feel that it is a difficult problem for the new democracies to deal with such a situation."

"So, how do you solve the problem?"

The solution to the problem did not appear.

Chen Fan still shook his head and said: "It turns out that the emperor of the Qing Dynasty abdicated, and the whole of China will usher in a new democratic country. However, among them, there was a Qing Dynasty minister named Yuan Shikai, who won the position of president by persuading the Qing emperor to retreat. Although some revolutionaries did not support Yuan Shikai, they could only compromise temporarily. Unexpectedly, Yuan Shikai was not satisfied with obtaining the position of president, but he began to revise the constitution step by step. In the first step, Yuan Shikai amended the constitution and turned his position as president for life into a president for life. Not only that, but later he also stipulated that he, the great president, could not only assume the responsibility himself, but also his children and grandchildren could inherit it. ”

In the second step, he began to work on restoring the titles of officials in the feudal period. For example, the restoration of Jiuqing, doctors, and other official positions. ”

After Chen Fan finished speaking, everyone was stunned for a moment.

"It's understandable to make yourself president for life, it's a thirst for power. However, restore Jiuqing, doctor...... What is this to do? ”

"It won't be ......"

Many people are starting to have some things to figure out.

Subsequently.

One of them said, "This guy doesn't want to be the emperor himself!! ”

As soon as this sentence came out, the entire live broadcast room was once again sensational.

For this.

Although Chen Fan did not watch the live broadcast room.

But seeing the expressions of the students at the scene, he also knew what everyone was thinking in their hearts: "Yes, he just wants to be the emperor." ”

In fact.

At that time, as soon as Yuan Shikai's restoration of the imperial system came out, everyone was also dumbfounded.

Many people didn't think that Yuan Shikai would think like this.

"Be emperor yourself."

"Restore the imperial system, this girl actually has such an idea."

"This guy can't be in the water in his brain, right, what advantages does the imperial system have now?"

Why was the Qing Dynasty bullied so badly by the foreign powers.

One of the most important reasons is that the Qing Dynasty was a feudal monarchy.

That is, the flaws of the system.

If you go back a few hundred years, perhaps this is normal.

Because at that time, the idea of democracy had not yet been disseminated.

For many people, the imperial system is also relatively deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

But.

When a group of great powers with their spears and cannons flaunted their might on the land of China, countless people of insight profoundly saw the constraints of the imperial system on the country's strength. Therefore, at that time there will be a constitutional monarchy, as well as a revolutionary. And it was under the revolution of these people of insight that the Qing court abdicated.

It stands to reason that Yuan Shikai was a great contributor to forcing the Qing court to abdicate.

He should have seen more deeply that the imperial system was not popular.

But why, did he want to restore the monarchy?

"Actually, this guy's brain is not in the water, but the title of emperor is too tempting."

"Well, China has been an imperial country for thousands of years, which one doesn't want to be an emperor? Although Yuan Shikai forced the Qing court to abdicate, he was originally an official of the Qing court, and he naturally coveted the position of emperor. ”

A group of fans are constantly discussing.

Chen Fan also agrees with this statement.

He continued: "But as I said before, times are different. Yuan Shikai may be very capable, or he may be outstanding. However, his anti-anachronistic thinking is destined to be abandoned by the times. When Yuan Shikai ascended the throne as emperor, he was opposed by almost all revolutionaries. A group of people of insight launched a series of uprisings to protect the country, and in the face of a series of pressures from the outside world, Yuan Shikai was forced to cancel the imperial system. From Yuan Shikai's accession to the throne to his abolition of the imperial system, it was only 88 days. Soon after, Yuan Shikai also died of uremia. ”

As said before.

Although the Qing court abdicated, a mess left behind gave countless people of insight a series of problems.

And among them, there are a group of people in power like Yuan Shikai who restore the imperial system.

This undoubtedly put tremendous pressure on the newly established regime.

"Teacher Chen Fan, after Yuan Shikai died, what about our China?"

Then.

One of the students stood up and asked again.

Unconsciously.

They have already regarded the story told by Chen Fan as China.

No way.

It's so immersive, it's too real.

Moreover, in the face of the current situation in China, countless people are also extremely concerned about the country's way out.

After Yuan Shikai's death, although the regime was still maintained, it was already divided into various warlord forces. Each faction appeared one after another, and each controlled it for a period of time. And during this period of time, because the great powers have not yet been expelled, and even the country has not been completely unified, China is still in great darkness. ”

Of course.

This stage is not without merit.

Like what.

During the period of control of the Beiyang regime, China abolished many of the unequal treaties it had signed with various powers.

This also laid some foundations for later unification.

On the whole, however, the warlords were in a state of chaos at this stage.

At the same time, the overall strength of the country is still insufficient, and it is also very difficult to go through foreign relations.

"Due to time constraints, this is the end of today's class. However, after this class, I also left a small homework for my classmates. In the era of warlord secession, how should we find a way out in China? ”

……

"It's too difficult for Mr. Chen Fan to keep this question."

"Yes, this kind of question, let alone us, I feel that even a group of experts in international relations may not be able to solve it."

"It feels more complicated than our history, ahhhhh

"Why rejoice?"

"If we were born in China at that time, what would we do?"

This said.

It really made everyone feel the same way.

As in the world they live in now, many people just feel that he is just a simple model.

But.

Teacher Chen Fan's world is simply a hell mode.

"Although we are glad, we still have to study the topic left by Mr. Chen Fan. After all, what can we do if we find ourselves in such a situation in the future? ”

"Yes, if we can solve this problem well, then we can also find a new way out when we encounter these situations in the future."

"But the problem is, this problem is really unsolvable."

Many people have not thought about this problem.

But how to solve this problem?

Only God knows.

Or maybe God doesn't know.

"Internal warlords are fighting, external powers are rampant, may I ask, how can this be solved?"

"Not only that, but the mess left by the Qing court has not been completely digested."

"I have some responsibility to see if such a regime can be sustained. If such a regime no longer exists, what will become of China? ”

It's really an unsolvable problem.

But.

Sometimes.

If you don't solve it, you'll never solve it.

Fortunately.

China, which has a culture of more than 5,000 years, even if he did not give an answer, he gave a group of people of insight ideas to solve the problem.

On the next day.

When Chen Fan spoke again.

Chen Fan suddenly found that it seemed that there were many foreign friends who came to the scene today to prepare for the lecture.

"Director Sun, what's going on?"

Chen Fan was a little strange: "Are these the school's foreign teachers?" ”

"It's not."

Sun Jun shook his head, and then said, "These are some foreign officials. ”

"Some officials abroad?"

This surprised Chen Fan even more: "They also came to listen to my class?" ”

"yes."

"Director Sun, didn't you tell him, am I telling a story?"

"Teacher Chen Fan, don't be surprised. History and stories are sometimes not much different, just as foreign history is actually a story for us. And, you know, the world isn't so peaceful right now. In many countries or regions, they have suffered a series of troubles. And these troubles, they don't know how to break the game at all. ”

Get.

Chen Fan understood.

I'm here to learn from myself.

This reminded Chen Fan of some countries in his previous life.

Many of their operational concepts and ideas are derived from China.

……

"Ladies and gentlemen, I don't know how you did with the question I assigned yesterday?"

Second lesson.

As soon as Chen Fan started class, he was ready to talk about this question with everyone.

It's just a pity.

Although many students stood up, the idea of solving the problem was too simple.

"Teacher Chen Fan, I think it's better for you to come."

"If we can figure it out, we can probably send me to be a diplomat."

Everyone laughed at the bottom.

"In that case, then I can only continue to tell the story."

There were no extra words, and Chen Fan began to solve the problem.

Of course.

This problem cannot be solved in one sentence or two sentences.

After thinking about it, Chen Fan said: "Then let's start with Peking University." ”

"Peking University?"

The students were stunned: "What does this have to do with Peking University?" ”

"Of course there is, and it has a very big relationship."

Chen Fan said: "After the end of the Qing Dynasty, although the warlords were fighting at that time, it was rare to be clean for a period of time. At that time, there was a person named Cai Yuanpei, and he served as the president of Peking University. Unlike other presidents, when Cai Yuanpei was the president of Peking University, he attached great importance to the ideological education of a group of students. At the same time, in terms of hiring teachers, he is also tolerant of all rivers and rivers, absorbing people with high levels in all aspects. Among these people, there are Chen Zhongfu, Hu Xian, and Li Dazhao, who are more active-minded...... and others, likewise, there are also conservative Gu Hongming, Huang Kan and others. ”

Among them, Chen Zhongfu stood out. In his early years, Chen Zhongfu was born in the last years of the Qing Dynasty and also participated in the scientific examination, but failed. Later, Chen Zhongfu received a large amount of advanced culture, and then he went to study in the Japanese country. After returning to China, he published many highly thoughtful articles in the magazine "Jiayin", which was a large magazine at that time. After Cai Yuanpei became the president, Cai Yuanpei hired Chen Zhongfu as the dean of liberal arts at Peking University, and later founded the magazine "New Youth". ”

After Chen Zhongfu served as the dean of liberal arts at Peking University, he also met many people of insight. After that, the new youth moved to North City. It is also because of Peking University as a position, after that, the new youth published a lot of various ideological articles. These articles not only broadened the public's horizons, but also brought great inspiration to a series of people of insight. At the same time, it is precisely because of "New Youth" that it has truly awakened the sleeping China and truly liberated the minds of countless Chinese people. ”

Chen Zhongfu is naturally a person who has to be mentioned.

Equally.

The magazine he founded, New Youth, is also an extremely important work in modern history.

"Perhaps, there will be some skepticism that a magazine cannot have such an impact. Here I quote Mr. Chen Zhongfu, who in a speech at Peking University mentioned why the country is in such a situation. He gave examples of the changes in the Qing Dynasty to this time, and why the Qing court was bullied, and many people believe that this is because the equipment is not as advanced as abroad. However, after the Qing court began to learn the advanced technology of the West, why was it still bullied by the foreign powers, and was it really impossible for the Qing court to defeat them at that time? Subsequently, some people analyzed that this was because the system was inferior to that of the West. ”

This makes sense, the Qing court was a feudal autocracy, and naturally it was inferior to the West. However, after the end of his rule by the Qing court, the country had established a relatively democratic state, which was equivalent to a completely new system. So, to this day, why is China still in a warlord melee? Isn't this system inferior to the West? ”

For this, Chen Zhongfu thinks. China is inferior to the West, perhaps at the beginning the equipment is inferior to theirs, and later the system is inferior to theirs. However, none of this is the real reason. The real reason is that the minds of the Chinese have not awakened. ”

"Under the oppression of the feudal imperial system for thousands of years, many people's minds have not been enlightened. And to save the country, to find a prescription for the current country, to find a correct path for the country. First of all, we should emancipate our minds. It is precisely because of this that a series of articles published by a group of people of insight by the New Youth set off a huge wave of emancipation of the mind in China at that time. In such a wave, people have learned two words, one is democracy and the other is science......"
