Breaking through Guandong, I became Zhu Chuanwen

Zhu Chuanjie’s meeting with Woodrow Wilson was neither in New Jersey nor in New York. It was finally scheduled for an afternoon in early March 1912. The place was Woodrow Wilson’s alma mater, Johns Hopkins University. This is one place where he will fight for the Democratic vote in the future.

In the eastern part of the United States in March, the climate has gradually warmed up. Zhu Chuanjie was wearing a suit and a thin sweater with a tie exposed at the neckline. merchant.

"Mr. Wilson, your speech to the students concerned about geopolitics and that the United States should remain neutral in the war is really good. I think so." Zhu Chuanjie saw Woodrow Wilson in a gazebo at the school.

This is a politician who is close to 60 years old. He used to be the president of Princeton University and later ran for the governor of New Jersey.

"Mr. Zhu, I didn't expect you to be so young. You are really young and promising." Woodrow praised Zhu Chuanjie's age. This young man is really difficult to deal with. He has been making appointments with his secretary and has been accompanying him all the way. his steps.

"Compared to Mr. Wilson, I still have a lot to learn. By the way, Mr. Wilson, I see that you still have some carriages in your fleet. Our Ailon company just rolled off a batch of four-seater cars. When you arrived in New Jersey, during your election campaign, you were involved in helping our Aron company to do vehicle testing, okay?"

Woodrow Wilson looked at the young man in surprise, chasing him all the way for this matter?
In the 1912 U.S. presidential election, the candidates were still selected by the two parties, but now, the final candidates of the two parties are still undecided. Is it so early to place a bet?Woodrow Wilson was also a little uncertain about the purpose of this young Chinese man in front of him.

Since he was not sure, Woodrow didn't agree, but started talking, at least the impression was quite good.

"Mr. Zhu, I heard that you are also a member of the Presbyterian Church?"

"Could it be Mr. Wilson too? That's such a coincidence!" Zhu Chuanjie looked surprised, but in fact, most of his acting skills.

The Wilson family came from the South, and Woodrow's father was a pastor of the Southern Presbyterian Church in the United States.The Presbyterian Church can be regarded as a sect among American Christians. During the Civil War, even the faith was divided into two. His father participated in the establishment of the Southern Presbyterian Church.

As for Zhu Chuanjie, he also joined this sect during the gradual development of Ailon Company. Those who believe in or not believe in it are put aside for the time being. The main reason is that there are still many benefits. Aaron Company's foundation in the United States is too shallow, so there is only such a sacrifice.

"I heard that in recent years, the Qing Dynasty, oh no, the Presbyterian Church in the Republic of China has developed well..."

"Indeed, Mr. Wilson, I have also been awarded a title by the church. I also participated in the Presbyterian Church of the Republic of China. They plan to merge a series of church schools in Jinling and Beijing to open two universities." Zhu Chuanjie did not say in detail To be honest, Roosevelt, who is in office, intends to use the boxer indemnity to establish a series of educational assistance, and the plan to cultivate a group of pro-American Chinese elites has fully begun to be implemented.

Among them, the establishment of Jinling University was based on the merger of a series of church schools established by the ROC branch of the American Presbyterian Church.In Beijing, the American Presbyterian Church also changed the Chongnei Huaili Academy to Huiwen University in 1889. After that, this school became a big one. Capital University and Yenching University were its former names.The first principal, Leighton Stuart, was a Christian from the American Presbyterian Church.

"It's really a good thing." Woodrow Wilson nodded, and asked again: "Your Aaron Company's development in Texas is very good, and it effectively shared the pressure we faced with Mexico, by the way , your votes in Texas this year?"

"If Mr. Wilson is elected, we will definitely vote for you." Zhu Chuanjie said it quickly.

"Tell me, I don't know why you chose me, who is not sure I can become a party candidate, as your investment target, let me listen to your request." Speaking of this, Woodrow finally said directly He said it outright, because he was very satisfied with Zhu Chuanjie's identity.

In fact, no one knew at this time that the president who was born in the South was a white supremacist racist.

"Mr. Wilson, we don't really ask for much. We just want to be able to discriminate against us Chinese in the future, at least don't classify us as black people. Let us produce some good products better for your America Service." What Zhu Chuanjie said is very interesting. In fact, in the United States at this time, the status of the Chinese is really worse than that of the blacks, but the living environment is better. Baotuan has its own Chinatown.

Woodrow Wilson looked at Zhu Chuanjie in front of him, "Mr. Zhu, do you want to develop in the direction of politics in the future?"

"Not to mention development, Mr. Wilson, Mr. President has now started to provide educational assistance to the Republic of China, but I have now sworn to become an American citizen, and even the more than 30 Ailon workers have also become American citizens. We But I plan to live and die on this land for the rest of my life, and I hope that Mr. Wilson can support us to integrate into the United States in the future."

Hearing this, Woodrow Wilson laughed, and his hands even trembled a little, which was the aftereffect of a stroke he suffered at the age of 39. "Mr. Zhu, you are really optimistic about me. You know that I became the Democratic Party's presidential candidate. Who is my opponent?"

"Theodore Roosevelt, William Taft." Zhu Chuanjie said two names in succession.

"Yeah, there are these two people. Even if the Republican Party elects one, I can't compete with them." Woodrow Wilson actually knew that the chances of this election were slim. One was the re-elected US President William Taft Off, the other is the more former Theodore Roosevelt.

In the two-term president PK, Woodrow Wilson thinks that he is a little inferior.

"Mr. Wilson, I actually have some news here, maybe you will be interested." Zhu Chuanjie handed over the information in his hand. It just came from the Chicago Republican Party. He just got it a little earlier. .

Woodrow Wilson opened it for some unknown reason, and he was a little surprised at once. There seemed to be conflicts within the Republican Party.

"Mr. Wilson, as you can see, Mr. Roosevelt is now actively establishing a new party called the Progressive Party. I think it will soon establish a permanent structure from Washington to the state level. Next year's presidential election, I think It will come from three people. But you have also seen that the Progressive Party is actually composed of the part of the Republican Party that supports Mr. Roosevelt, do you understand what I mean?" Zhu Chuanjie looked like you were a smart person.

Woodrow is also a veteran, why don't you understand, this is to disperse the votes of the Republican Party, it's okay if one of these two succeeds, if not, Roosevelt will become the chief culprit in the Republican Party's criticism in the future.

"Mr. Roosevelt insists on adding a buck to donkeys and elephants. This is really good news for you." Zhu Chuanjie spread his hands again this time. Also known as the donkey-elephant dispute, "donkey" is the party emblem of the Democratic Party, and "elephant" is the party emblem of the Republican Party.

And this buck refers to the newly established Progressive Party, nicknamed the "Buck Party" because Roosevelt claimed to be "as tenacious as a buck."He shouted at the congress: "This is the Armageddon of the end of the world, we are fighting for the Lord!" His crusading rhetoric inspired the delegates.The party campaigned on the platform of increased government intervention to protect the people from the oppression of interest groups.

That is Roosevelt's consistent anti-monopoly style...

Although Woodrow Wilson had no expression on his face, his heartbeat continued to speed up, "Mr. Zhu, is your Elon company so concerned about this election?"

"It's always hard to move on, Mr. Wilson, Aaron Broadcasting Company is now a leader in new media in the United States. If Mr. Wilson is willing, you can try to speak on the radio in the future, so that your voice will be heard more It’s a new method if people who didn’t come to the scene heard it.”

"Mr. Zhu, it seems that you have already thought about it for me." Woodrow Wilson asked without the slightest hesitation, "I don't know if Mr. Zhu would like to join my campaign team, let me try What about the influence of your broadcasting company?"

"I wish for it!" Zhu Chuanjie did not expect that Woodrow Wilson would be so decisive.

But in fact, it is also understandable that Woodrow Wilson is already in his 60s, how many elections can he still have?Now that the Republican Party is splitting, it is really a good opportunity.

And Zhu Chuanjie, because of his brother's telegram, also directly targeted Woodrow Wilson, the final winner of next year's election.

……

Ice city
In March, Bingcheng started school, and Zhu Chuanwen officially started his busy schedule. The most important thing in March was the start of the progress class in Hanyao University.

Regarding the education of Hanyao University Hall, Zhu Chuanwen has never relaxed. The auditorium of Hanyao University Hall only completed the construction of the main structure last year. It will be put into use in September of this year.

"The first lesson at the beginning of school." Zhu Chuanwen's lecture this time was very straightforward. Seeing the people pouring in from the audience, Zhu Chuanwen cleared his throat and started his own lecture.

"Today, I saw a lot of rest workers came. It's very good. We need to have this kind of energy, so that our life will be better and better. What do you say in the first lesson of school?

Let’s just talk about the motivation to study. It was still cold in Bingcheng in March this year, and I still haven’t taken off my cotton padded jacket. But no matter how cold it is, I hope that everyone in the audience will not be air-conditioned, complacent, or proud.

Everyone, open your eyes and look around. Our neighbor North Korea is now considered a subjugated country in the hands of the Japanese. The Koreans have become Japanese. I don’t think you in the future want to have a country on your head that keeps oppressing you.

You have to go up!
I know that there is a lot of talk in Bingcheng now, a lot of arrogant and complacent remarks, and some people have even begun to advocate that Bingcheng is the capital of freedom and the fire of civilization in the three provinces of the Kanto region.

Funny, so how do you count?These are the words of those who give up on themselves, and these are the words of those who have stopped.What a good atmosphere in today's Bingcheng, doing things, doing research, and going to school.I hope you have a share of enthusiasm and shine a share.

I dare not call myself a fire, but Hanyao should be regarded as a small torch in Kanto. We need you and hope that you will become useful. When you grow up, the gathering of fireflies will illuminate more people , warm more people, if there is only darkness in the future, we are the only light. ..."

After the founding of the Republic of China, Zhu Chuanwen now speaks less and less scruples, and began to blindly give the students blood, let them study hard, and accept the hearts of the students, the Hanyao Association, which has been established by the Hanyao University Hall, gradually The work of absorbing non-Hanyao students has begun.

After the first class, Zhu Chuanwen summoned Chu Keqiu again.

"Old Chu, how is the preparation of your dock?"

"Mr. Prime Minister, the equipment has almost been allocated. They are all factory buildings we have prepared. Just pull some equipment in and it will be ready for use." Chu Keqiu was still a little excited. The dock, from 1908 to the present, Zhu Chuanwen finally approved his construction.

"I don't think the ironclad ship you submitted is quite suitable, but I think the offshore armed speedboat submitted by your ship research laboratory is quite interesting. Can you try to build it?"

Offshore armed speedboat, this is the name submitted by the Ship Research Office led by Chu Keqiu. In fact, in Zhu Chuanwen's mind, this should be called Dafei.

"President, this thing's requirements for the engine..."

"Continue to conquer. If you don't manufacture such high-quality and cheap things as armed speedboats, you really plan to ask me to allocate funds to build iron-clad ships. Of course, you can build them. It can be regarded as your technical accumulation, but you need to be faster with the technology of armed speedboats. Let him mature, and our layout in Nanyang has begun. But now, we don't have a suitable port to build a large dock.

Technically, it is even more poor and useless. How to build an iron-clad ship? Nanyang is waiting to use it urgently!Also, the submarine..."

Submarines, this thing is only available in Germany now, and countries around the world have not realized how lethal this thing would be in the first half of the 19th century when sonar and radar did not appear.

"President Prime Minister, the submarine is something you proposed. I also have a power call with Director Chuanwu. Germany keeps this area very secret. It is difficult to come up with any useful information. We can only experiment and explore."

"I'll give you time, but it can't be too late. If all the submerged submarines can't overcome the technology, we can take it step by step and make a semi-submersible prototype first. There are also torpedoes, which are the main attack method of submarines. You can generate electricity toward the hunters yourself, and gather the craftsmen of the Jiangnan Shipyard."
