Chapter 30: Idea Blocking
In a temporary residential area on Xiadao, Professor Zhang is discussing the issue of refugees on Gulangyu Island with Mr. Liu, one of the organizers of the 10,000-person march, and others.
Teacher Liu said with emotion: Because the war happened too quickly, more than 100,000 people in Xiamen's disaster-stricken areas flocked to Gulangyu Island, which is separated from Xiamen Island, and the residents of the island have vacated all the public places, as well as churches, temples, hospitals, theaters and private buildings, all of which are crowded, and I really dare not imagine how they will live in the future.
The quiet student couldn't help but ask: Didn't I hear that Mr. Shao Yuanqing established the "Gulangyu All Walks of Life United Relief Association" and a shelter?
Teacher Liu said: "Yes, after the establishment of the United Relief Association, a number of shelters were set up on the island, and now there are 54 shelters. Overseas Chinese in the Philippines launched a relief movement for disaster victims, and fellow villagers living in Singapore established the Singapore Xiamen Association, and successively held drama charity performances and joint exhibitions of calligraphy and painting to raise funds for relief. Some groups and individuals in China have also donated generously and donated money and materials. However, due to the large number of victims, it is still a drop in the bucket. ”
Professor Zhang said to Jingjing: "The Chinese people in the world are one family, and their feelings of patriotism and love for their homeland are very moving, so you can write these into press releases, send them to Hong Kong Ta Kung Pao, and report them as soon as possible." ”
"Okay, I'll write it!" Jing Ying was just about to go out, but suddenly turned around and said, "Professor Zhang, when I finish writing, you have to help me change it!" ”
Professor Zhang nodded: "Well, I will do my best, you go and write."
"Got it."
"By the way, bring another newspaper." Professor Zhang explained.
"Okay!" Quiet agreed and ran out.
Professor Zhang looked at the disappearing back, thought for a while, and said: The last parade had a great impact, it was very encouraging to the people, and it was a great blow to the Japanese puppets, and it was bound to arouse the attention of the Japanese puppets, so you should pay more attention to the movements of the Japanese consulate police station on Lujiao Road, where hundreds of anti-Japanese patriots have been secretly detained, and you teachers and students on Gulangyu Island must pay attention to safety, and at the same time inquire about the situation of the Japanese police station.
Teacher Liu nodded.
The next day, Jing Jing handed Professor Zhang a copy of the completed press release and a copy of the South China New Daily.
Professor Zhang first picked up the newspaper, looked at it, and couldn't help but say angrily: The Japanese puppets used the tricks of "rejuvenation" and "prosperity" to seduce a group of bandits, traitors, and Wang thieves to go to Xiamen for sightseeing, and let them play all kinds of operas, which is very likely to gather the political scum of the whole southeast in Xiamen.
After reading the newspaper, Mr. Liu slapped the newspaper on the table and couldn't help but scold: These Japanese puppet traitors, under the guise of "rejuvenation", created the illusion of Xiamen's prosperity, but they are just to whitewash the peace and make better use of Xiamen's economic conditions to achieve the conspiracy of feeding the Japanese army with war.
Quietly answered: In order to create the illusion of prosperity in the market, I heard that the pseudo-Xiamen Public Security Maintenance Association has also tried every possible way to lure the citizens to oppose Xiamen, but the citizens would rather let their property be looted than return to Xiamen Island.
Professor Zhang said with emotion: "Yes, under the pretext of the so-called "new order" of Greater East Asia, the Japanese invaders achieved the goal of occupying and ruling Xiamen for a long time, brutally suppressed politically, plundered wildly economically, brutally enslaved ideologically, carried out enslavement propaganda on the island, carried out spy intelligence activities, controlled the politics, economy, and staff of the puppet regime, and carried out colonial rule activities. In order to enslave the needs of Xiamen Island, the Japanese invaders changed Xiamen Zhongshan Park to 'Xiamen Park', Zhongshan Road to 'Dahan Road', and Zhongzheng Road to 'Xiaobin Road'. ”
Another teacher interjected angrily: "What's more, they also demolished the house and occupied the land, and forcibly bought and occupied it. In the name of building schools and hospitals, hundreds of buildings around Shilu Street and Dabei Pavilion were demolished; In the name of building an airport, hundreds of houses and thousands of acres of farmland were occupied in Heshan, and more than a dozen villages and communities in Heshan were destroyed. Under the pretext of prospering the market, they forcibly occupied the Xiamen Water Supply Company, the Electric Light Company, and other companies. The material is under the control of the system, and the grain is rationed......
Professor Zhang went on to say: Under the rule of the Japanese puppet, Xiadao has lost its beautiful soul, but it was once great after all. There are still some clothes and ornaments on this dead man's body that can be robbed, and the material extraction carried out by the Japanese puppets in Xiamen today is tantamount to robbing the dead man of the only ornaments. ”
Everyone listened quietly.
Professor Zhang continued: "We are the sons and daughters of Xiamen and China, and we cannot watch the Japanese robbers act arbitrarily in this land, and watch Xiamen Island be slaughtered by others, and we must find ways to stop their theft!" ”
Quiet Q: Professor Zhang, is there any way?
Professor Zhang was silent in thought......
