The sea of people in the late Qing Dynasty is the most magical land on the entire Shenzhou continent.

And I am the most amazing people in the whole Haihai.

In 1842, with the signing of the Treaty of Seking, the sea became one of the five treaty ports.

A year later, in 1843, the port was officially opened, and countless foreigners flocked to this "adventurer's paradise" to open hotels, set up docks, demarcate concessions, and open banks.

Twenty years after the opening of the port, expatriates from Britain, the United States, France and other countries from the West poured into the sea, and there were no permanent expatriates in this land at that time.

In the early years of the Republic of China, more than 70 years have passed since the opening of the port of Qianhai, and the number of overseas Chinese in Qianhai has jumped to the first place in the country, accounting for more than one-third of the total number of overseas Chinese.

Even a few decades later, after the outbreak of the Pacific War, the number of local expatriates in the sea exceeded 100,000, accounting for two-thirds of the total number of overseas Chinese.

Moreover, compared with the Westerners who lived in the public and French concessions, these expatriates also had another characteristic, that is, they all lived together.

Basically, the Japanese in Qihai live in the northern area of the public concession north of Suzhou Creek, especially in the Hongkou area.

The entire Hongkou area is full of all kinds of traditional buildings and markets, and if you don't distinguish them carefully, you can really mistake yourself into thinking that you are in the sea and not in the sea.

These people are also engaged in a variety of professional activities in Qihai, such as finance and commerce, culture and art, education and science and technology, medicine and health, religious clergy to handicrafts, entertainment services, etc., basically, all the industries in Qihai are surrounded by their own expatriates.

Of course, the largest number of Japanese expatriates living in the sea are engaged in the work of the local military, government, and special organs.

Like the Prince College founded by Chen Muwu in Stockholm, I even opened a school in Qihai - East Asia Tongwen Academy.

Of course, the two schools are run for completely different purposes.

Chen Muwu's Prince College is dedicated to teaching and educating people, and cultivating talents in science and engineering for China.

But this East Asian Tongbun Academy......

It is also true that it cultivates talents for this purpose, but it does not cultivate talents who are proficient in Sinology, but cultivates talents who are so-called "Chinese Studies".

- In other words, between D and W.

China's vast land area is far from being comparable to that of a long and narrow island country.

If you want to find out the situation in various parts of China, you must train a large number of inter-D personnel.

Instead of building this school behind closed doors in China, it is better to build this school in China.

In this way, while cultivating these students, they can be in the context of Chinese and better familiar with the customs of China.

Therefore, during the Qing Dynasty, I first established the Nissin Trade Research Institute in Shanghai, and later established the East Asia Tongwen Academy on this basis.

Dong-A Tongwen College has organized a series of students to conduct field research in China for more than 40 years.

They traveled as many as 700 routes, basically all the provinces except the southwest snow area, and had a clear understanding of the geography, industry, commerce, society, economy, politics and other aspects of the places they visited.

Otherwise, during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, how could there be a military map of the Chinese army, and the accuracy was not as high as the accuracy of the civilian map published in this book?

The East Asia Tongwen Academy, as well as other special institutions in China and other special institutions in China, are eager to have a clear understanding of the major and minor events that have taken place in China.

Therefore, they have long been eyeing Chen Muwu, who has made a great name in Europe and the scientific community, and Chen Muwu is on the list of "The Latest Support* Dignitaries" published every year in China, and the photos attached are also the latest editions found from major European newspapers.

The special high school in China has also given tasks to the branches of embassies and consulates in European countries, so that they can obtain more information about Chen Muwu.

But this task was not easy to carry out, because Chen Muwu was either in England or Sweden, where both were Westerners' territory.

Moreover, whether Chen Muwu is at Cambridge University or in Stockholm, he enjoys the treatment of a national treasure, and it is not easy to send Honma D in Europe to contact him.

Therefore, the special high school course continued to guide the work of special W institutions in European countries, and asked them to select physics students in Europe, in an attempt to let these people get in touch with Chen Muwu.

However, the implementation of this method still faces difficulties in various aspects.

One is that although there are a large number of international students studying physics in Europe, because of the xenophobia of Europeans and the poor level of these international students, they are not the top group in the physics circle, and it is difficult to find a suitable candidate who can break into Chen Muwu's academic and social circle.

There was a student named Takeo Shimizu in the Cavendish Laboratory, and he was the first Asian to enter the world's top physics laboratory before Chen Muwu.

His main work in Cavendish was to improve the cloud chamber that Professor Wilson had invented.

But the bad thing is that this Shimizu Takeo left England in Taisho 11 and returned to Ben.

Chen Muwu only entered the Cavendish laboratory in 1923, and there was no intersection between the two.

Well, maybe there's still some intersection.

That is, after Takeo Shimizu left the Cavendish laboratory, it was Blackett who took over his work and continued to improve the cloud chamber.

After that, Blackett successfully improved the cloud chamber, and Chen Muwu also used this cloud chamber to do many physics experiments.

Fortunately, after Chen Muwu arrived in the UK, he did not stay in the acre of Cambridge University, but conducted academic exchange visits in Europe from time to time, and finally found the opportunity to contact Chen Muwu, that is, in 1924, when Chen Muwu went to the Institute of Theoretical Physics in Copenhagen for the first time.

When I met Chen Muwu, I wanted to find some good scientific research ideas from him, and on the other hand, I remembered the task given to them by the legation in Denmark before, so I began to contact him with ulterior motives.

It seems that the mission given to the embassies and consulates in Europe by the Special High School has been successful, because Yoshio Nishina did obtain some information about physics and industry during his exchanges with Chen Muwu.

He also listened to the professional advice given by Chen Muwu, and shifted his academic focus from the study of emerging microscopic physics to the more mature low-temperature physics.

Because according to Chen Muwu, superconductivity, a low-temperature physics phenomenon, is not only easy to achieve, but also very helpful for the country's industrial development in the future.

Chen Muwu did not deceive anyone, and Yoshio Nishina did soon make a major discovery in superconductivity research.

First of all, Chen Muwu found the niobium metal with the highest superconducting critical temperature among the elemental elements, with a critical temperature of 9.2 Kelvin.

Later, inspired by Chen Muwu's letters in his daily exchanges, Yoshio Nishina also found the niobium-nitrogen compound "niobium nitride" NbN, whose superconducting critical temperature is 15.6 Kelvin, which is almost double the critical temperature of metal elements.

Moreover, the niobium nitride found by Yoshio Nishina is the material with the highest superconducting critical temperature that physicists can find so far, and it has not been broken for several years.

This is enough to show that in the research of superconducting physics, this is in the leading position in the world.

With this achievement, as a young man who had just returned from Europe, after returning to Tokyo Imperial University, he obtained the funds that had already been raised for the first time and established the Laboratory of Physics and Physics of Imperial University to help Japan continue to maintain its advanced position in the field of low-temperature physics.

However, apart from Yoshio Nishina's superconducting physics, it is difficult for the special high school to obtain other information from Chen Muwu.

They also tried to contact Chen Muwu through this line of Yoshio Nishina, hoping to send Ben's international students into the Cavendish laboratory to work beside Chen Muwu.

In his reply, the latter welcomed Nishina's request, saying that he would do his best to help an international student as long as he was able to enter the Cavendish laboratory.

It's just that the problem is with Rutherford, the director of the Cavendish laboratory.

For some reason, this strong man from New Zealand rejected all the applications of those who wanted to enter the laboratory to study and work.

Yoshio Nishina also sent another letter to Chen Muwu because of this incident, and the latter reluctantly said that it was because he was not good enough to pass Rutherford's test, and he himself was sorry for his inability to do anything about it.

Chen Muwu's reply in the letter seemed to be leaky, but later according to Ben's intelligence department in the United Kingdom, after Chen Muwu, the Cavendish Laboratory and Cambridge University successively recruited several international students from China.

The most famous of these should be Zhao Zhongyao, who won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1927, I don't know how they entered the Cavendish Laboratory, whether it is related to Chen Muwu.

From the birth of Chen Muwu in 1923 to the present in 1928, for five years, Ben's intelligence agency only obtained sporadic information from Yoshio Nishina, which was completely insufficient to make a comprehensive judgment on Chen Muwu.

During this period, he also used various means such as coercion and inducement to try to get Chen Muwu to "invite" him to Ben for a lecture visit in the process of returning to China in 1926, but due to the more important Swedish crown prince who needed to receive him, Chen Muwu's visit was finally no news.

Later, the information collected about Chen Muwu in China was that he would establish a prince college in Stockholm, the capital of Sweden, to train reserve talents for Chinese people.

Bent W Institution, which was originally very interested in Chen Muwu, became more interested in him after Chen Muwu announced that he wanted to run a school.

This is due to the fact that there is only one Chen Muwu in China, and there is no threat to Ben.

But Chen Muwu wants to cultivate more Chinese students, and he has touched his own backlash.

Ten in one life, ten in a hundred, a hundred in a thousand......

If more and more Chinese people are allowed to acquire advanced knowledge, it will be very detrimental to their country's further China policy, and it will also be a major threat to their intelligence personnel.

Therefore, after research and judgment, several special W agencies in the sea agreed that starting with the enrollment of Prince College was an excellent opportunity to get close to Chen Muwu to obtain information.

Therefore, they made a report to the higher authorities, proposing to send students to pass the selection examination and blend in with these new students who went to the prince's college as Chinese.

The primary purpose of these special Ws is to find out what was Chen Muwu's motivation for founding the Prince's College in Stockholm? "Does his move have any impact on the entire Great Ben Empire? "Wait.

They sent this information back to the corresponding authorities in China, so that they could study and judge Chen Muwu and then lurk at Chen Muwu's side on the spot.

When new missions come from within the country, they will be reactivated.

Chen Muwu had already thought of this at the beginning of the school.

I'm curious about him, or I want to send someone to study at Prince's College like Yoshio Nishina recommended to the Cavendish Laboratory, and that's all bound to happen.

Although I was disgusted with doing this in my heart, because I wanted to recruit school-age students across the country and not miss any plastic talents, Chen Muwu's school could not be concealed, and he had to make a big splash.

However, Chen Muwu was quickly relieved of this matter, the Prince's College is his own one-third of an acre, Chen Muwu has a relationship between the Swedish crown prince and the Wallenberg family in Sweden, and for the sake of safety, the school will implement semi-closed management.

Even if a few people are mixed in the school, it is estimated that they will not be able to make much waves.

I think that at the beginning, whether it was the number of young people who defected to Yancheng from all over the country, or the number of special Ws who were mixed in all aspects, it was much more than the number of students that Chen Muwu had to accept in the Prince Academy now.

has received so many mixed people, and Yancheng has not had any major incidents for so many years, what is he Chen Muwu afraid of?

You can't let yourself be busy for so long because of a few people who may get involved, and the Prince Academy project that has been busy for so long falls short, and it runs aground at the last moment.

Therefore, in the enrollment rules explained to Shi Ruwei, Chen Muwu only explained that the students who signed up must be Chinese nationals.

As for whether he has ulterior motives and sneaks in with a fake identity, let him go.

Although the matter of the consul general in Shanghai meeting with the Swedish minister in China and asking for the exam questions was a private matter, after all, it was also a diplomatic occasion, and Shi Ruwei did not appear.

As the chief examiner of this selection exam, his mind is all devoted to the upcoming exam.
