The Rise of the Writers of the Republic of China

It's icy and snowy.

The Trans-Siberian Railway starts from Moscow, crosses the vast pine forest snowfield, crosses the steep Ural Mountains, crosses the Siberian tundra, and finally arrives at Vladivostok on the Pacific coast.

Although Einstein is 50 years old, his personality is not dull. When the train was speeding through the boundless permafrost, he was astonished like a child discovering a new toy, lying behind the window and watching without blinking.

"This is really a magical railway, which is beyond belief. It is even more spectacular than the Great Western Railway in the United States," Einstein couldn't help but sigh with emotion. "I have to say that Russia is a great nation."

Zhou Hexuan pointed to the ice and snow outside, and said flatly: "When this railway was built on the Siberian section, Russia recruited hundreds of thousands of workers in Shandong, Henan, and Northeast China. The bridges and bridges on the eastern section of the Siberian railway Most of the tunneling projects are completed by Chinese workers. Whether it is the Great Western Railway or the Trans-Siberian Railway, every sleeper has the blood of the Chinese people flowing."

Einstein was surprised at first, then he was silent, and said slowly: "Perhaps, I should know more about everything about China."

As an architect, Corbusier could not help but comment after hearing what Zhou Hexuan said: "Chinese workers are the best workers in the world. Whether in Russia, the United States, or France, their The performances are all so outstanding. Perhaps, this kind of craftsman inheritance has always flowed in the blood of the nation, so there is the Great Wall."

Li Shi once didn't know what to say. Chinese workers built the Great Western Railway in the United States and the Russian Trans-Siberian Railway. The most difficult sections of the two most majestic railways in the world today were built by Chinese workers, while China has very few railways of its own.

When will Chinese workers build a world-class railway belonging to China?

Li Shi once felt very at a loss, and the aggrieved heart was beyond words.

Zhou Hexuan looked at the glaciers and snowfields in the distance, and Han Hong's song "Road to Heaven" faintly sounded in his ears.

The terminal station of the Trans-Siberian Railway is Vladivostok, which belonged to China in the late Qing Dynasty, but now it has become the largest port in the Far East of the Soviet Union "Vladivostok", which means "East Town".

Even leaving aside Vladivostok, the Trans-Siberian Railway at this time was going through China, swaggering through Harbin.

The train stopped at Harbin Station, and everyone got off and transferred to the branch railway, passing through Changchun, heading for Shenyang.

This branch line of the Siberian Railway was completed and opened to traffic in 1903, and it was called "Dongqing Railway" at that time. As a special envoy of the Qing Dynasty, Li Hongzhang went to Moscow to congratulate Tsar Nicholas II on his coronation. He was coerced by the Russians to sign the "Sino-Russian Secret Treaty" and decided to build this "Eastern Qing Railway". control.

The Dongqing Railway was called the Middle East Road in the Republic of China! (starting point Harbin, ending point Dalian)

The impact of the incident on the Middle East Road has disappeared. Zhou Hexuan and others saw countless Soviet railway workers working in an orderly manner at Changchun Station. Only the bomb craters that appear from time to time in the field and the buildings that have not been repaired after being bombed remind people that the war has just broken out here.

Shenyang Station.

"Woooooo~~~~~"

The train whistle blew, and the black steel giant slowly stopped. Zhou Hexuan got up and said to Einstein and Corbusier: "Gentlemen, please, welcome to Shenyang, China!"

"Please!" Le Corbusier let Einstein go ahead.

Einstein walked in the forefront without hesitation. The moment he got off the bus, there was a sudden burst of crazy shouts outside the platform.

As Zhang Xueliang's representative, Feng Yong led celebrities from all walks of life in Shenyang, as well as students and reporters who came spontaneously, and had been waiting at the station for a long time.

Einstein waved to the crowd with a smile, and said in the simple Chinese he had just learned from Zhou Hexuan: "Thank you, I'm bored!"

"boom!"

Hearing Einstein speak Chinese, the station became even more lively. Excited students rushed forward desperately, knocking over the policemen maintaining order.

After finally calming down the emotions on the scene, Feng Yong came forward with dignitaries and celebrities, shook hands with Einstein and said, "Mr. Einstein, hello!"

"Hello," Einstein joked, "Your English is better than my Chinese."

"Ha ha ha ha!"

This little humor made the scene laugh out loud.

Zhou Hexuan stepped forward and introduced: "This is Mr. Feng Yong, he is the founder of a free private university."

"Free private university?" Einstein said in surprise, "It's incredible."

Zhou Hexuan said with a smile: "Mr. Feng Yong sold all the inheritance left by his father in order to establish a university."

Einstein shook Feng Yong's hand and said, "Mr. Feng, you are a respectable gentleman."

"Thank you for the compliment, I don't dare to take it." Feng Yong hurriedly said modestly.

Zhou Hexuan was afraid that he would neglect Corbusier, so he quickly introduced: "Fifth brother, this is Mr. Le Corbusier, the top European architect."

Feng Yong immediately stepped forward to shake hands: "Mr. Corbusier, hello!"

"Hello, young Mr. Principal, nice to meet you." Le Corbusier smiled.

Afterwards, Feng Yong introduced several Shenyang politicians and celebrities, and everyone surrounded Einstein and prepared to leave the station. Einstein has completely become the center of focus, not to mention Le Corbusier, even Zhou Hexuan has become a foil.

A reporter from Shenyang Shenbao stopped the crowd and shouted, "Wait, let's take a group photo first!"

Feng Yong was kind, and said to the two foreigners: "Mr. Einstein, Mr. Corbusier, please!"

Einstein and Corbusier stood in the middle, Zhou Hexuan and Feng Yong stood on both sides of them, and outside and behind stood many celebrities and dignitaries from Shenyang.

"Everyone pay attention to the camera, Eggplant!"

"Crack!"

"Crack!"

When Le Corbusier took pictures, he was very gentlemanly, with a serious and meticulous expression. Einstein was much more mischievous. The moment the reporter pressed the shutter, he suddenly tilted his head, stuck out his tongue, and widened his eyes like a puppy.

And Zhou Hexuan obviously noticed Einstein's actions, and squinted at the scientist with a smile that was not a smile—a bit "funny".

This photo was widely circulated in later generations. Some netizens posted a joke saying: "The style of the whole photo is divided into two from the middle line. Feng Yong and Le Corbusier on the left are too serious, as if they are taking ID photos. Zhou Hexuan and Einstein on the right are no longer in the category of taking pictures, they are obviously fighting for emoticons, one is 'funny' and the other is 'funny', both of them deserve a beating."
