Because his story has been published in the newspaper, Monet will buy a copy of the New York Post these days, although he knows the content of it, but it is still very satisfying to his vanity by reading it......

But today, when he saw a piece of news in the newspaper, he couldn't help but be very angry, because the name of this news was "Shameful Chinese!" 》。

The article claims that there were 2,224 passengers on board the Titanic, but only 710 survived, with a survival rate of only 31.7%, and only 20% of men.

But among the 2,224 passengers, 8 Chinese, but 6 survived, the survival rate is as high as 75%, the reason why the survival rate is so high is because they disguised themselves as women in turbans and hid in lifeboats, shamelessly robbing women and children of their chances of survival, and our great British and American gentlemen selflessly gave up the opportunity to women and children, and even they suspected that these eight Chinese were actually smugglers and did not buy ferry tickets at all!

In fact, these eight Chinese were actually employees of the British Donald Company, because of the strike movement in the United States, so they were sent to the Anat anchored in New York Harbor to burn the boiler (this ship is specially used to transport tropical fruits), the company bought a third-class collective ticket for the eight of them, and arranged for New York Harbor to immediately transfer ships, not to enter the United States, so as to avoid the "Chinese Exclusion Act" of 1882. (At the time, many European companies preferred to hire Chinese workers because they were paid one-fifth of the wages of whites and were obedient and hardworking...... ）

And they didn't disguise themselves as women or secretly hide a lifeboat, but five of them survived in a broken boat that no one was riding, and one of them was supported by a board like Ruth until the rescue boat arrived.

As for why the British and American media want to smear the Chinese, in fact, the reason is very simple, that is, the Chinese at that time were easy to bully, after all, such a big accident must be carried by someone.

First of all, the British must not be good, then they must all be gentlemen!

And then the Italians have the backing of the government, not to mention the mafia traditions!

The Irish were not either, and at that time there was an independence movement with the British, and the newspapers did not dare to provoke them.

The blacks fit the bill, but the problem was that there was only one black man on board at the time, and he was dead.

So in the end, only the Chinese who has the most survivors and is best bullied will take the blame......

What is even more chilling is that Hong Hao, a domestic literati, also published an article entitled "National Shame on Titanic" in the magazine "West Wind", in which he first advocated the chivalry and gentlemanly demeanor exaggerated by the Western media, and then copied their description of these six Chinese, and severely slapped the board on the innocent six compatriots, so as to demonstrate his theory of "China's inferior roots".

It wasn't until a hundred years later that a British boy made a documentary called "THE SIX", which cleared them of the injustice they had borne for a hundred years.

Although Monet knew about this at this time, he was now soft-spoken, and he didn't know where the "Atner" had gone, but he secretly made up his mind that he must find an opportunity to collect evidence, publicize this matter to the world, and help these six countrymen clear their grievances in their lifetimes.

With this complicated mood, Monet came to the New York Post again, and Russell, the editor-in-chief, was a little surprised by his arrival, because in his opinion, he had already settled the money, so Monet should not come again.

Unexpectedly, Monet said to him mysteriously: "Mr. Editor-in-Chief, I suddenly thought of a good idea yesterday that will make you a lot of money!" ”

"Then Monsieur Monet, why don't you make this money yourself?" Russell asked unmoved.

Monet spread his hands and said: "Because I don't have the capital, otherwise I would really do it myself." ”

"How much money does it cost?" Russell asked casually.

Monet thought for a moment, then replied, "Well, it's about $10,000, but I promise you'll make at least $50,000!" ”

"Oh? Mr. Monet, why are you so confident? Russell asked curiously.

"It's very simple, I'll show you and you'll understand, but before that, you have to promise to give me five hundred dollars after using this method!"

When Russell heard that he didn't need to give money first, and that through the previous cooperation, he had a good impression of Monet, so he reluctantly said: "Okay, Mr. Monet, please let me see the source of your confidence!" ”

Monet took out a book from his bosom and handed it to Russell and said, "Look at this book, you will understand everything!" ”

Russell took it and read that the book was called "In Vain" and was published in 1898 by an Englishman named Morgan Robertson.

Until this time, Russell still didn't understand what Monet meant, but when he read the introduction of the book, he was immediately surprised, because this book is about the process of a luxury giant ship called "Titan" hitting an iceberg and sinking, and what is even more unbelievable is that the details described in it are almost exactly the same as the "Titanic" this time.

For example, both ships sank on their first voyage, sailed in April, routed from England to the United States, and suffered heavy casualties due to the lack of lifeboats, not to mention almost identical names......

Seeing this, Russell asked Monet in disbelief: "Mr. Monet, this, this book can't be made by you, right?" ”

"Of course not, do you think I can write so many words in just a few days, typeset, print, and bind into a book?"

In fact, even if Monet doesn't say it, Russell himself understands the truth in this, after all, he does what he does, and he just asked that just because he was so shocked!

After calming down, he realized that there was a huge business opportunity here, as long as this matter was spread in the newspaper, then curious people would definitely come and rush to buy it, and it was estimated that it should not be a problem to sell it for tens of thousands, so it was very reasonable for Monet to say that he could make 50,000 US dollars, as for why he didn't do it himself, it was because he didn't have this distribution channel and printing costs.

But Russell was still a little puzzled, so he asked Monet: "Mr. Monet, now that I know this book, aren't you afraid that I won't give money?" ”

PS: The book "In Vain" is true, not made up.

PS2: Continuing to talk about the update situation, if there is a manuscript saved, there will be two chapters a day, and if there is not at least one chapter, it will definitely be updated constantly anyway.
