Chapter 112 There are soldiers but no pay (seeking a monthly ticket)
Chapter 112 of the Chinese Sportsman's main text, there is no salary. An Qing looked solemn. He believed that it was a spy in Japan and then leaked the news to China, so that Chinese newspapers would report on the pseudo-Manchukuo to participate in the Olympics.
Japan does have plans for this aspect, because Japan can't wait to split the Manchuria and Mongolia region from China, and also hopes to support the puppet Manchukuo puppet regime supported by Japan. So as a "Manchuria" to participate in some international affairs is obviously a good way to gain international recognition.
The Olympics are obviously an important international event, and the Olympics have always claimed that they do not involve politics and are just a sports meeting that promotes peace. There are many opportunities for the pseudo-Manchukuo to participate successfully.
As early as February, the Japanese frequently went to Liu Changchun's home, hoping that Liu Changchun's father could persuade Liu Changchun to return to the Northeast and then participate in the Olympics as a "Manchukuo" athlete. Liu Changchun's father was so scared that he had to move and hide. The Japanese plan was also planned for a long time.
However, China and Japan are still negotiating a ceasefire agreement. In order to gain more benefits at the negotiating table, Japan should not add fuel to the fire at this time. Therefore, the plan to allow the pseudo-Manchukuo to participate in the Olympics has not been officially implemented. Moreover, only the Japanese know about this plan, and the so-called politicians of the pseudo-Manchukuo are also unaware of this.
But now the Chinese know, and the Chinese media are actually reporting it extensively. Of course, the reaction of the Japanese Qingyi was that there were traitors on the Japanese side and the news was leaked.
In May, Japan instructed the pseudo-Manchukuo to sign up for the Los Angeles Olympics, but because Chen Qiang tampered with it, he broke the news to the media in advance. In March, the news spread throughout China.
The plan that Japan had previously designated was completely disrupted, and Kishi Kishi felt very passive.
"President, the fact that Manchuria is participating in the Olympics is already in a turmoil in China. What should we do? Should we put this plan on hold for the time being?" Kenjiro Nakano asked from the side.
An Qingyi shook his head firmly: "No, this plan must not be shelved. 'Manchukuo' must sign up for the Olympics. Even if it cannot be done in the end, we must show an attitude. We must let the international community know that 'Manchukuo' and China are not the same country! 'Manchukuo' exists independently. This is related to the empire's future strategy, and we must not give up halfway!"
"But now that China already knows about this, they will definitely respond." Kenjiro Nakano said.
"There is a saying in China that the arrow has to be fired. Since we have already alerted the snake, we don't have to hide it. Just put the plan in advance and you immediately notify Manchuria and ask them to go to the US consulate to sign up for this year's Los Angeles Olympics." An Qingyi said resolutely.
...
Soon, the pseudo-Manchukuo received an order from Japan. Xie Jieshi, the "Foreign Minister" of the pseudo-Manchukuo, went to the US Consulate in Harbin in person, and proposed to participate in the Los Angeles Olympics in the name of "Manchukuo" and signed up for Liu Changchun and Yu Xiwei!
At this time, Yu Xiwei was still in the Northeast, and Liu Changchun ran to Peking with teachers and students of Northeastern University after the "September 18th".
When Liu Changchun learned that the Japanese wanted him to represent the pseudo-Manchukuo to participate in the Olympics, he was very angry and directly issued a statement in the newspaper: "If I still have my conscience and still have blood, how can I forget my motherland and become a puppet puppet country and be a cowmaya!"
Liu Changchun's statement hit the Japanese invaders with a blow.
The US Consulate also informed the Republic of China government of the pseudo-Manchukuo early on the registration of the pseudo-Manchukuo Olympics.
This time, the Republic of China government cannot continue to bury its head in the soil as an ostrich. The puppet Manchukuo puppet regime has signed up for the Los Angeles Olympics, which has been 100% hammered. Although the United States has always expressed its refusal to recognize the pseudo-Manchukuo, who knows what the International Olympic Committee thinks?
Besides, Americans have notified the Republic of China government. If the Republic of China government does not take some practical actions, it will be impossible to help A Dou!
...
Luoyang, the temporary office of the Executive Yuan, President Wang Sanshui of the Executive Yuan looked at Director Duan with a serious look.
"Class Minister Duan, can't your Ministry of Education even handle this little thing? You have to come and ask me specifically? My current focus of work is to negotiate with the Japanese. This is a major issue that concerns the survival of the country and the nation! Just do small things like participating in the Olympics, the Ministry of Education will do it yourself!" President Wang said with a bad face.
"What the dean said is that a low-level position is guilty, and it is not important to have a low-level position, which has disturbed the dean!" said Deputy Director Duan of the Ministry of Education.
Director Duan's active attitude of admitting his mistakes has eased Dean Wang's expression a lot.
Director Duan asked carefully: "Director Wang, please forgive me for being stupid. Bei Zhi came here mainly to ask for instructions, should we participate in this year's Los Angeles Olympics?"
"I have to participate, and I have to participate! Since the puppet Manchukuo is going to participate in the Olympics, how can we sit idly by!" Dean Wang paused and continued: "I heard that the puppet Manchukuo signed up for two athletes in the Northeast. Let's do it, let's take a 'smear' and let these two people attend the Olympics on behalf of our China. In this way, the Japanese and puppet conspiracy will be defeated!"
"Minister's clever plan!" Director Duan first flattered, and then said in a little embarrassed manner: "It's just that there's a funding issue..."
"Funds? What kind of funding? What else is needed to go to the US Embassy and sign up for our country? Is there still a registration fee for the Olympic Games?" Dean Wang asked.
"Reporting to the President, this Olympic Games was held in Los Angeles, the United States. The flight tickets to and from the United States, the food and accommodation costs and some miscellaneous expenses per person will cost at least tens of thousands of oceans! I don't know where to pay this part of the funds!" said Duan Chief.
When I went to the United States, I would not spend so much money with food, accommodation and various miscellaneous expenses, but Director Duan deliberately said more. In this way, when the geese passed by and plucked the hair and the fat meat, the Ministry of Education could also take a handful of oil in hand. This year, the Ministry of Education would also have more funds, and maybe I could pay the salary owed to teachers from Central University.
However, President Wang said, "The finances are so tight now, how can I get the money to allocate it to the Ministry of Education."
"Without funding, how can our athletes go to the United States!" said Duan Chief.
However, Dean Wang replied impatiently: "I just asked you to register. Have you ever said that you really want to send athletes to the United States to participate!"
"Ah?" Director Duan opened his mouth wide, looking confused.
Dean Wang's tone was even more impatient, and he continued: "In terms of the rules of the Olympic Games, we did not say that we must participate if we signed up! my country signed up for the Olympics, first, to give an explanation to the people in the country, so as not to continue making trouble; second, to express our attitude to the international community, we will firmly not recognize the pseudo-Manchukuo; third, to defeat the Japanese and puppet conspiracy to push the pseudo-Manchukuo to international activities. To achieve these goals, it is enough. As for whether our athletes can go to Los Angeles to participate in the competition, it doesn't matter! Our current focus should still be on negotiations with the Japanese."
Director Duan nodded suddenly and thought to himself: "I didn't expect that there would be such a slut! He took advantage of all the benefits without spending a penny. No wonder he could be the President!"
...
The next day, Deputy Director Duan invited Zhang Boling to the temporary office of the Ministry of Education.
"Principal Zhang, good news! I've been so ruthless these days, and my mouth is almost worn out. Finally, I have done my job, and I have let go of it and promised to send athletes to the Los Angeles Olympics!" Director Duan took all the credit on himself with a word.
"If you believe in you, you will have ghosts!" Zhang Boling said in his heart.
In order to run education, Zhang Boling often raises donations everywhere. People from all walks of life have seen him. Of course, he knew that Co-Chancellor Duan had no truth. The fact that Chinese athletes could participate in the Olympics was still the boss above to let go, and they had no connection with Co-Chancellor Duan.
However, Zhang Boling was still very excited. Chinese athletes can finally appear in the Olympics!
I heard Counselor Duan continue, "Principal Zhang, I don't know much about registering for the Olympics. Principal Zhang should be an authority in China. I'm afraid I have to trouble Principal Zhang when I encounter this registration!"
"Don't worry, Chief Duan, this matter is covered by me. Although my old bones are not very useful, there is still no problem in doing such things. I will definitely handle the registration matter properly." Zhang Boling said.
"Then I'll trouble Principal Zhang to register for the two athletes Liu Changchun and Yu Xiwei." As Chief Duan said, he picked up the teacup and posed for seeing off the guests.
Zhang Boling did not say goodbye immediately. He asked, "Captain Duan, can you ask if the athletes sent to Los Angeles to participate this time are only Liu Changchun and Yu Xiwei?"
"Yes, didn't the pseudo-Manchukuo send these two people? These two people are both Chinese athletes. How can they represent the pseudo-Manchukuo in the Olympics? So our country also needs to register these two people and let them participate in the competition on behalf of our Chinese. In this way, the Japanese and puppet conspiracy will be defeated without any confrontation!" Duan Chief said.
"What about Chen Qiang?" Zhang Boling asked anxiously: "Chen Qiang is the fastest in Asia and the holder of Asian records. He is the best athlete in China and the most hopeful athlete to win medals in the Olympics. He must participate in the Olympics!"
"Chen Qiang?" Director Duan thought for a while and felt that he had some impression of Chen Qiang.
Zhang Boling continued: "Chief Duan, you also met Chen Qiang in person at the commendation meeting of the last Far East Games."
"Oh, I remembered it. It was the young man who said he had no money to go to college! He went to Nankai University in the end, right?" Deputy Director Duan finally remembered Chen Qiang.
"Yes, it's him." Zhang Boling continued: "In the past two years, Chen Qiang has defeated Japan and Britain's strong players in succession, and Britain's world champion Eric Lidir has also lost to Chen Qiang. If he was sent to the Olympics, he would definitely achieve good results and bring glory to China!"
The deputy director lowered his head and thought about it. Anyway, the Ministry of Education did not plan to send athletes to the United States to participate in the competition. No matter how many people signed up, the Ministry of Education would not have to pay a penny.
"If you sign up for one more person, then you will have to leave it to Zhang Boling for registration. I don't know if he fills in another person's name when registering. It's better to agree directly and just treat it as giving Zhang Boling a favor. Anyway, no matter how many people sign up, the Ministry of Education doesn't have to pay for it."
Thinking of this, Director Duan nodded: "Since Principal Zhang strongly recommends it, then add this Chen Qiang! I hope he will not let Principal Zhang down, and be able to achieve good results and win glory for the country!"
...
Zhang Boling can easily complete the registration of athletes. With the help of Wang Zhengting, a member of the International Olympic Committee, the entire registration process is very smooth.
The registration deadline for the 1932 Los Angeles Olympics was June 18. In history, Liu Changchun had already exceeded this time. Under the operation of Zhang Boling and others, the International Olympic Committee decided to accommodate it and allow Liu Changchun to participate.
Now it is still early to the Olympic registration deadline, so the registration process is naturally smooth. Zhang Boling directly sent a power to the Olympic Organizing Committee of the Los Angeles Olympic Games through the US Embassy to register for Chinese athletes.
The U.S. Embassy's telegram line was indeed very fast. After a few days, it received a reply from the United States, agreeing to the Chinese athletes to participate in the competition.
Holding the Olympics is a matter of face. As the organizer, he naturally hopes to make the more lively the better. Someone came to participate in the competition, and the US Olympic Organizing Committee was too happy, so he naturally agreed quickly.
After receiving the reply from the United States, Zhang Boling immediately went to the Ministry of Education to find Deputy Director Duan to report.
"Fortunately, Deputy Director Duan has fulfilled his fate. The registration matter has been arranged. The United States has also responded. Our athletes will participate in the Los Angeles Olympics." Zhang Boling said excitedly.
"That's great, I knew that Principal Zhang would definitely succeed if he took action himself!" Deputy Director Duan deliberately looked happy.
Zhang Boling also felt that Coin Duan’s smile was a bit too fake.
However, Zhang Boling didn't care. Many of the officials in this government were false and false. One thing behind the scenes was normal. If Chief Duan revealed his true feelings, Zhang Boling would not be able to adapt.
The two of them exchanged a few greetings, but Director Duan never mentioned the funds. In the end, Zhang Boling couldn't help but ask, "Class Duan, since the registration has been completed, the United States has agreed. I don't know when the funds for going to the United States will be approved?"
"Funding?" Duan Chief smiled and said, "No funding."
Zhang Boling suddenly felt bad. He asked in a hurry: "Chief Duan, since he wants to send athletes to the United States to participate in the Olympics, how can he do it without funds?"
"Principal Zhang, it's not to be hiding that the country's finances are now in a tight situation, and the Ministry of Education really cannot provide funds to let our athletes go to the United States to participate in the competition." Deputy Director Duan said calmly.
"If there is no funding to participate in the competition, what's the point of signing up for the Olympics!" Zhang Boling said sternly. The old man was really angry.
"Of course it makes sense. Through this registration for the Olympics, we defeated the conspiracy of the Japanese and puppets and expressed to the international community that we would never recognize the pseudo-Manchukuo!" Duan's tone was still very calm, as if he had already thought of the words.
"You can also give the public an explanation so that those students will not continue to cause trouble, right?" Zhang Boling snorted coldly. At this time, he had completely seen through the intentions of the Ministry of Education. The so-called registration was nothing more than meeting political needs and perfunctory to the people. They had no intention of sending athletes to the Olympics at all!
After being said so by Zhang Boling, Director Duan smiled awkwardly: "Principal Zhang, don't blame me for this matter, I am also ordered to do it. Now that the country is in danger, it is indeed not a good time to participate in the Olympics. I personally really hope that our athletes can go to the Olympics and get a gold medal and win glory for the country, but the situation does not allow it. If the superiors do not approve the funds, I am also a clever woman who can cook without rice!"
Director Duan is also well versed in being an official. When he allowed athletes to participate in the Olympics, he kept saying how much effort he had put in to fight for it. When he was about to pay the funds, he became "ordered to do it" again. No funding had nothing to do with him.
Zhang Boling lived at such an old age and experienced so many things, how could he not see through these things? He knew that this was just a shirk of Chief Duan, and he was even more disappointed at this time.
"Okay, I understand. I won't bother Director Duan anymore, say goodbye!" Zhang Boling stood up and left with a dull look on his face.
...
In Tianjin, Chen Qiang has received a telegram from Zhang Boling, knowing that the registration for the Olympic Games has been successful and he can represent China and appear on the stage of the Olympic Games!
"Sure enough, just like what I have recorded in history, as long as the pseudo-Manchukuo will send athletes to the Olympics, the Republic of China government will really not be able to sit still and will follow up immediately."
At this time, Chen Qiang could not hide his excitement. For any athlete, representing his country in the Olympics is a lifelong dream, and Chen Qiang is no exception.
Chen Qiang in his previous life has envied countless times. Those athletes who can stand on the Olympic stadium have also fantasized countless times that if they can enter the Olympics, they should live a good life!
Now, Chen Qiang’s dream has finally come true!
No! To be precise, the first step was achieved and the registration was successful.
Chen Qiang knew that he would face the biggest problem in the competition in the United States next, that is, the funding for participation.
In the 1932 Los Angeles Games in history, although the Ministry of Education of the Republic of China sent athletes to participate, it was not a penny and no money was paid.
In the end, Zhang Shaoshuai paid 8,000 oceans and asked Liu Changchun and his coach Song Jun to go to the United States again to participate. After the competition, Liu Changchun did not have enough travel expenses to return to China. He successfully returned to China with the donation from local overseas Chinese.
Two people have 8,000 oceans, and an average of 4,000 oceans per person is not enough in the end, and they have to rely on donations from others to return to China.
Chen Qiang didn't know how much money was missing when Liu Changchun returned to China in history, but according to Chen Qiang's estimates, if he went to the United States to participate in the Olympics, he had to prepare at least 5,000 to 6,000 oceans. After all, he was away and was not panicked when he had money.
Moreover, this is the first time that Chinese people have to participate in the Olympics. At that time, they have to attend the appearance ceremony, so they have to prepare a set of dresses. In this era, formal dances will be held and tuxedoes will also be prepared. In addition, all the miscellaneous clothes, food and accommodation will also cost money. According to this calculation, 6,000 oceans are a bit nervous.
Now Chen Qiang can’t even get 2,000 yuan!
"You have to find a way to make money!" Chen Qiang thought to himself.
Chapter completed!
