Chapter 10: Crisis Outbreak (1)

Call loudly: Please pay attention! Please click! Please collect! Please recommend!

...

During the period before the crisis broke out, Zhao Zhenzhong became a little idle. Every day, except for helping Zhou Tian handle some affairs, he basically spent reading books and materials. Many of these books and materials were collected by Zhao Zhenzhong and Zhou Hao before, including an overview of the First International to the Third International and representative documents of his main leaders.

Through reading, Zhao Zhenzhong roughly understood the ins and outs between the three internationals, and had a certain understanding of the thoughts of Ma and En, and understood what Lao Ma called himself "I am not a Marxist" and had a new understanding of the Soviet revolution led by Lenin and Stalin and the so-called world communist movement under the guidance of the Third International.

One day at dinner, Zhao Zhenzhong said with emotion: "After reading the books over the past few days, I realized that the thoughts of Ma and En from the past were not the same as those we had ever had before, and those who are now praised by the Soviet Union and those in our country."

"Yes, Xiaohao and I felt the same after seeing these things." Zhou Tian nodded in agreement, "From the Manifesto in 1848, both Ma and En advocate freedom. Moreover, although Marx favored violent revolution, he did not accurately explain what the concept of proletarian dictatorship meant anywhere. Instead, he opposed the 'dictatorship of outstanding elements after the success of the revolution'. In addition, from some of Engels' later views, it seemed that this thinker also gave up the idea of ​​violent revolution. These are simply incredible to those people in China today."

"This does feel a bit contradictory, but I think it can be explained." Zhao Zhenzhong said in thought, "Old Ma did not accurately explain the concept of proletarian dictatorship. He should be aware that the 'dictatorship of excellent elements' will lead to dictatorship and dictatorship. This obviously violates the idea of ​​pursuing freedom and liberation advocated by Ma and Engels in the Declaration. How could those 'excellent elements' who controlled the regime through violent revolution easily give up the power they obtained to implement the so-called democracy?! Engels gradually gave up the idea of ​​violent revolution in his later years, which is not good to say that it is related to this."

"In addition, after reading these materials, I completely disagree with the 'proletarian internationalist principle' advocated by Ma En. This principle is similar to the ideas of 'human rights supremacy' advocated by the West led by the United States, and 'human rights are above sovereign' and other ideas, and have become excuses to interfere in other countries' internal affairs. I have not done anything in my own country, but I am talking about international things. Look at what the Third International does now, the so-called international has just become a tool for Moscow to export revolution and safeguard the Soviet Union's own interests. The people in China also praised the international as their own emperor, and have become a weapon for people with ulterior motives to fight and reject dissidents." Zhao Zhenzhong said disdainfully.

"Haha, if those people hear your words, they will definitely become the 'counter-revolutionary' in their eyes and will be completely knocked to the ground." Zhou Tian smiled.

Zhao Zhenzhong also joked, "Haha, do you have to step on another 10,000 Hong Kong feet and never turn over?"

"If those people knew that their ancestors had opposed the so-called Marxists' statements several years ago, especially those who opposed the use of their statements as formulas and unchanging dogmas, they would probably have lost their composure." After thinking about it, Zhao Zhenzhong laughed again: "A group of people thought they had searched for chapters and read them as the principle of treasure books, but they were criticized by their ancestors several years ago. I really don't know what expression they would have if they learned about it."

After the two laughed for a while, Zhao Zhenzhong asked, "By the way, how did you and Xiaohao collect this information?"

"When Ma and En were there, they attached great importance to the workers' movement in North America. May 1st International Labor Day was to commemorate the strike movement of American workers. The Second International led by Engels proposed when it was established. In addition, before and after World War I, after the Second International split due to the war, many people came to the United States. Due to these historical reasons, it is not surprising that these information can be collected." Zhou Tian explained.

"So that's it." Zhao Zhenzhong understood and continued: "These things have certain reference value for our future development. At least we can use them when we are having a verbal battle with those people in the future. It just so happened that I selected some information and translated them into Chinese during this period."

However, things always happen. Just when Zhao Zhenzhong was about to start translating some materials, Situ Meitang sent someone to inform him the next afternoon: Chen Jiongming's representative and Mr. Huang Sande arrived at the headquarters of Anliangtang in New York, hoping to meet Zhao Zhenzhong and others. Zhao Zhenzhong looked at the sky and sent people back in the future, and agreed to visit him tomorrow morning.

Since Zhou Hao went to Boston to go to school, Zhao Zhenzhong and Zhou Tian drove to the headquarters of Anliangtang the next morning.

In the room where Situ Meitang received Zhao Zhenzhong and a few others, Zhao Zhenzhong met two Hongmen bosses and a middle-aged man who was nearly 40 years old and had a good appearance.

Situ Meitang pointed at Zhao Zhenzhong, and Zhou Tian and the others smiled and introduced to the middle-aged man: "Dingsi, this is what I told you about Zhao Zhenzhong, Zhou Tian, ​​the two are now unmarried couples." Then he said to Zhao Zhenzhong and the others: "This is the plenipotentiary representative sent by Jingcun to the United States this time, Chen Qiyou and Chen Dingsi."

Chen Qiyou looked at Zhao Zhenzhong, Zhou Tian and the other two. Seeing the heroic and free and easy man and the dignified and beautiful woman, he couldn't help but blurt out: "What a beautiful couple!" Then he stretched out his hand to Zhao Zhenzhong and said: "I, Chen Qiyou, I have heard about what the little brothers and others have done from Mr. Huang and Mr. Situ. It is really admirable. The little brother said I can just think about it."

Zhao Zhenzhong reached out to hold on to him and said politely: "Boy Zhao Zhenzhong. What he did is nothing but what the descendants of Yan and Huang should do. He should not be praised by the gentleman."

Situ Meitang smiled and said, "Don't be polite. As the saying goes, all the worlds are brothers, I think they are brothers."

Chen Qiyou smiled and said, "That's what you mean."

Zhao Zhenzhong also clasped his fists with his hands and said to Chen Qiyou with a smile: "Then I've just climbed up and met Brother Chen."

Then, Chen Qiyou and Zhou Tian met each other again.

At this time, Huang Sande smiled and bowed to Zhao Zhenzhong. Zhou Tian said, "I was unable to thank you in person before leaving last time. This time I have to thank you two wonderful hands in person. After internal and external conditioning, my health is much better now than two months ago."

Zhao Zhenzhong hurriedly stopped him and said, "Brother, this is not something to do! I told Brother Situ last time that we are just understanding some medical principles. Everyone is the descendants of Yan and Huang. It's a simple task, so don't take it to heart."

Seeing that Zhao Zhenzhong insisted, Huang Sande gave up, but he remembered the friendship in his heart.

After the few people sat down, Situ Meitang didn't see Zhou Hao, and was a little surprised, so he asked, "Why didn't that boy Zhou Hao come this time?"

"After he went back from this last time, he went to Boston to go to school. He probably won't be able to come here at Christmas," Zhou Tian explained.

Situ Meitang nodded and relieved, and then said, "There are mainly such things for you to come this time. First, talk about selecting reliable young Chinese workers for the company of Xiao brothers and others; second, talk about the oil fields and companies; third, discuss cooperation with Dingsi."

"I have selected 3,200 young Chinese workers, all of whom are between 17 and 23 years old, with good character and reliable young people. Old man, I can guarantee that these people will not be the problems that my brother mentioned last time."

"As an oil company, we have been registered and established, called Huamei Petroleum Company. Gangche has recruited people to East Texas to engage in related crude oil development business. As for the other oilfield development area entrusted by the little brother last time, the scattered share of 30% has been taken, and the profits are also very good. However, the negotiations with Rockefeller Company in New York are still continuing, and the other party feels that we are asking for too high prices and refuses to agree to our request."

"Brother, for such a high-quality and high-yield oil field, our asking price should be low, how can it be considered high?" Zhao Zhenzhong was a little surprised.

"The problem is that they don't believe it is a large oil field with an annual output of more than 50 million tons and can maintain stable production for 50 years." Situ Meitang smiled bitterly, "After hearing what I said, the people in charge of the negotiations thought it was too absurd and thought I was exaggerating for sales. In fact, if they don't believe it, even if I don't know the younger brother's character, I would be unbelievable."

"That's it. Then I'll take out 5% of the development area to sell it in scatteredly. Then use 30% of the development area to continue negotiations with Rockefeller. I think after a while, when those scattered buyers also drill high-yield oil wells, Rockefeller's people will realize the value there." Zhao Zhenzhong decided.

Situ Meitang's eyes lit up and she smiled and said, "Little brother, this method is good, old man, I can also vent my anger. If Rockefeller knew that Bai Bai had lost 5% of the oil field area because of his shallow knowledge, he would definitely feel distressed."

After laughing, Situ Meitang said again: "After explaining the previous matters, let us talk about the main purpose of inviting you here this time. If there is something to do, Jing Cun cannot come. Let Dingsi be his plenipotent representative and go to the United States to handle some affairs on his behalf. In addition to the matters related to the Zhigong Party, the most important thing is to discuss some things with your younger brothers. However, Dingsi must tell you the specific one."

Chen Qiyou cleared his throat and said, "Some time ago, Mr. Jingcun received a joint telegram from Mr. Huang and Mr. Situ, but it only said that there were major matters and asked Mr. Jingcun to go to the United States. Originally, Jingcun had already booked a ticket to the United States, but something happened to him in the southeast, so he entrusted me to come." Speaking of this, Chen Qiyou smiled bitterly, "I originally thought it was just about the matter within the Zhigong Party. After arriving in San Francisco, Mr. Huang had a secret conversation with me, and I realized that it was for the establishment of the country in Nanyang. Speaking of which, such important matters should be checked by Jingcun, but since I came to the United States on behalf of Jingcun, I couldn't go back here. So, I went to New York with Mr. Huang, one was to visit Mr. Situ, and the other was to listen to the opinions of the little brother in detail."

"I just have a general idea of ​​this plan. I think the general idea of ​​this plan, Brother Huang and Brother Situ should have told Brother Chen. I wonder what else Brother Chen needs to know?" Zhao Zhenzhong asked.

"The two gentlemen have indeed told me about the situation, and I also think this plan is certain. However, I want to know how the little brothers judged that the powers in the South China Sea would not collude to deal with us together?" Chen Qiyou raised one of the most concerned questions. You must know that Chen Jiongming was a military and political person at that time. If he had to pull up his troops to occupy a piece of territory in Nanyang, he would naturally not be afraid of facing the Western nose. However, the powers in Nanyang have many forces, and it would not be a problem if they only deal with the smallest strength of the Netherlands. But if Britain, the United States, France and other countries also participated in and helped the Netherlands to fight, it would be absolutely impossible for Chen Jiongming and others to deal with. Therefore, Chen Qiyou must know from Zhao Zhenzhong whether the powers would send troops? If they were to send troops, then this plan would be stranded; but if it was judged that the powers did not send troops, what was the basis?
