As soon as Qian Ruhai walked into the office building of the "Central Daily" newspaper, he bumped into an editor holding a pile of manuscript paper. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe literati who hold the pen are all relatively thin, where is Peter over the money like the sea of pampered good figure. When the two people collided, the newspaper editor immediately fell on his back, and the entire newspaper foyer was covered with flying manuscript paper.
Chairman Qian hurriedly stepped forward to pull the editor who fell to the ground, and the newspaper staff who were passing by next to him also ran over to help pick up the manuscript paper on the ground when they saw this scene.
"How many times have you told me to be careful... Be careful! Just don't listen! Don't look at what time it is! It's always so frizzy! Have you forgotten the instructions of the Commission? ”
A stern voice sounded from the corridor on the second floor, Chairman Qian looked up, and Qian Ruhai saw the vice president he knew, but the person who spoke was another person standing next to the vice president, a businessman like Qian Ruhai had very poisonous eyes, he just glanced at it and noticed that the vice president he knew was very restrained in front of the person who spoke, so Chairman Qian immediately understood that the man who was talking was the president of the "Central Daily" newspaper: Cheng Cangbo.
Cheng Cangbo stood in the corridor on the second floor and looked at the newspaper staff in the foyer, his eyes were a little cold, since he sat in the position of director of the "Central Daily" newspaper in 1932, Cheng Cangbo had never encountered such a thing tonight.
The Japanese Prime Minister announced the occupation of Nanjing in his New Year's message, Cheng Cangbo had already heard that for such a major event as the fall of the capital, the "Central Daily" must publish an editorial, and it would have been good if the Propaganda Department sent the editorial manuscript to the newspaper office and then arranged for it to be published by Cheng Cangbo, but what Cheng Cangbo didn't expect was that he actually received two editorial manuscripts at the same time, and they were both written by Chen Bui!
"A letter of consolation to the people, persist in the war of resistance"
"Refuting the Fallacy of Japanese Imperialism"
In an issue of the newspaper, there are actually two front pages with completely different contents waiting for Cheng Cangbo to arrange! Moreover, the content of these two editorials still contradicts each other, which means that Cheng Cangbo can only use one of them and publish it in the Central Daily, which was published a few hours later.
The Propaganda Department's actions are really fast enough! In the absence of confirmation as to whether Nanjing had fallen, they actually prepared their hands and handed over two completely different editorials to Cheng Cangbo.
However, the person from the Propaganda Department did not tell Cheng Cangbo which copy he should use in the newspaper today. Cheng Cangbo had no choice but to call the office of the head of the Propaganda Department, but the secretary of the minister who answered his call conveyed two words from the Minister of Propaganda to Cheng Cangbo:
1. Newspapers must be published on time!
2. The editorial must not be used incorrectly!
Hearing the minister's secretary's answer as accurate as a standard answer, Cheng Cangbo immediately understood!
The bigwigs of the Propaganda Department are feeling tricky and hiding! The kung fu of these people to kick the ball has really reached a certain level! It's really a good calculation to throw down such a big black pot and let Cheng Cangbo help them carry it!
Cheng Cangbo knew very well what would await him if the "Central Daily" published an erroneous editorial, and he must know that the "Central Daily" is the mouthpiece of the highest authority! Not only was this newspaper a daily necessity for the highest authorities, but the highest authorities had to mark the words and headlines he read with red and blue pencils! This is equivalent to a review, and the chamberlain will also hand over the marked newspaper and deliver it to the editor-in-chief of the "Central Daily".
The top authorities have very strict control over the JoongAng Daily, the bridgehead of speech. In particular, when it comes to the selection of the president and editor-in-chief, the highest authorities have to personally inquire about it, and they will send personnel from the chamberlain to organize and consider everything from ideological color to personal morality. Cheng Cangbo, the first president, graduated from Fudan University, is known for his writing, and is deeply appreciated by the government veteran Yu Youren, because of Chen Bui's relationship, Cheng Cangbo has also written articles on behalf of the highest authorities, and Cheng Cangbo has been working in the position of president since the "Central Daily" changed to the president system in 1932, which shows that the highest authorities have relatively high expectations for him.
If you lose your brilliant future today because of a wrong editorial, then Cheng Cangbo is really going to die!
This episode created by Qian Ruhai in the foyer made Cheng Cangbo, who was extremely depressed, find an opportunity to vent, and after standing on the corridor and reprimanding the members downstairs, Cheng Cangbo felt that his mood had finally become a little lighter.
The vice president standing next to him pulled Cheng Cangbo back to the cruel reality at this time, this guy with gold wire glasses seemed to be reminding Cheng Cangbo in a gloating tone that there was still a big trouble waiting for him to solve on his desk.
"President! It was almost two o'clock now, and if we wanted to print today's newspaper on time, we had to give a model at half past three at the latest, and there were also bureaus in other places, and they were all waiting for today's contents. President, you have an idea! ”
Cheng Cangbo turned around and stared at the vice president's face with his eyes, and under the strong pressure exerted by Cheng Cangbo, the vice president chose to lower his head.
Sure enough, there is a ghost in my heart! I'm waiting for me to make a mistake and step on it! Damn little Japan, what kind of New Year's speech is going to be made today, and Huang Haoran in Nanjing has no news at this time! As a result, a bunch of people have to hang their heads on their belts to run errands!
"Wait! Let the sample of the skylight be sent out to the branch office in the field first! It's the same with the printing house, tell them to wait! As soon as you get the news, you will start printing! This way the finalization time can be delayed until four o'clock! If there is still no news by then, then you can only choose one at random! ”
Although the vice president really wanted to let this matter have an ending as soon as possible, but in front of Cheng Cangbo, he didn't dare to show it easily, even if Cheng Cangbo couldn't wait for the news from Nanjing in the end, he chose an editorial casually, then Cheng Cangbo still had half and half a chance, before he was sure that Cheng Cangbo had reached a desperate situation, the vice president felt that he still had to endure it.
"Okay! President! Just do what you say! I'm going to send a telegram to the telegraph office, so that they can have more time......"
After speaking, the vice president trotted away, Cheng Cangbo looked at the back of his deputy leaving, and couldn't help but curse in a low voice: "Villain!" ”
Qian Ruhai saw the vice president go downstairs, he hurriedly greeted him, in the "Central Daily" newspaper, the biggest official Qian Ruhai knew was this vice president, tonight Qian Ruhai went to the "Central Daily" newspaper office to inquire about the news, and what he wanted to take in his heart was the path of the vice president.
"President Song! It's like seeing you! ”
Qian Ruhai's fist frightened the vice president, he didn't expect to see Qian Ruhai here, the president of the Chamber of Commerce, last time Qian Ruhai handed over the vice president's 30,000 yuan to donate 10,000 yuan to the vice president, and the remaining 20,000 legal currency became hundreds of acres of fertile land for the vice president's wife's mother's house, the vice president had long heard the government's high-level said that Nanjing, Xuzhou and even Wuhan could not be kept, and now the land in Chongqing is a price a day, and the vice president scrapes Qian Ruhai's oil, which is also to live more comfortably in Chongqing in the future.
The first reaction of the vice president after seeing Qian Ruhai was to look up and see that Cheng Cangbo was still on the corridor on the second floor, and after carefully looking around and not seeing Cheng Cangbo's figure, the vice president breathed a sigh of relief......
"President Qian! How did you get in? Oh, I don't really believe in people who say that wealth can be through God, but now I don't believe it! ”
Thinking in his heart that Cheng Cangbo would soon give up the position of president, the vice president's mood was very good, at this time, he actually had the heart to tease President Qian a few words, it was none of his business, the high hanging principles of life were perfectly interpreted in the vice president's body, in the eyes of the vice president, as long as he could do it after he could get to the top, Cheng Cangbo was already a gentleman.
It is precisely because there are too many gentlemen like the vice president in the Wuhan government that the government's inefficiency is outrageous!
"My president, don't play tricks, I'm here to ask if what the little devil said on the radio is true, General Huang really lost Nanjing? Did the Japanese win? ”
Qian Ruhai wanted to get an answer immediately, his words were fast and urgent, and after hearing this, the vice president quickly pulled Chairman Qian aside, and then whispered: "I said President Qian!" Can you listen to Japanese radio too? You just talk to me! If anyone else had heard about it, they would have handed you over to the "Central Union" or the gendarmerie a long time ago! We don't know anything about Nanjing now! The morning newspaper will talk about it, you just have to wait a few more hours! ”
"I really can't wait! Since I started a war with the little devil, my chest is blocked like something! I finally lived a peaceful life for a few years, and now I have become like this again! Why can't we win against little Japan when we are such a big China? ”
When Qian Ruhai spoke, tears had begun to roll in his eyes, he was really patriotic! Many businessmen of the Chamber of Commerce donated almost half of their own industry to see their country's army drive out little Japan, but they never imagined that now China's most victorious generals have all ended up in Nanjing!
Can there be a day of victory in this war of resistance?
"President! Your phone! ”
"Just take it outside! I don't see how busy I am now!? ”
"Yes.. It's from the squire's room! You're still ......."
Cheng Cangbo heard that it was the attendant room calling to find him, and immediately jumped up like an electric shock! The secretary who was standing on the side of the corridor and reporting to Cheng Cangbo didn't even have time to finish the second half of his sentence when he saw Cheng Cangbo rush past him like the wind and rush into his office.
"I'm Cheng Cangbo! Be! Yes! Got it! Do it now! Be! ......”
The entire office building was silent, and everyone stood in place and pricked up their ears to listen to the sound from Cheng Cangbo's office! Because Cheng Cangbo was in such a hurry that he didn't even close the office door, the staff of the newspaper listened to what Cheng Cangbo said on the phone word for word, what did this series of answers mean? Nanjing is still not in Huang Haoran's hands, and everyone is waiting for Cheng Cangbo to announce this answer later!
The vice president became nervous, the phone call at this time was from the attendant's room, it couldn't be for anything else, no matter whether Nanjing was occupied by the White Japanese or not, Cheng Cangbo's pass was over! With Cheng Cangbo's fancy from the highest authorities, there will be no change in the position of the president of the "Central Daily" newspaper in the short term, and the vice president can't help but wonder if he should develop in a different place, and isn't Minister He's Ministry of Military Affairs going to start engaging in propaganda? It's just opened over there, and you must need manpower, so it's better to ......
Although Qian Ruhai didn't know why these people in the newspaper office suddenly quieted down, his intuition told Chairman Qian that all this must be related to the war in Nanjing! Tonight was the right one, and soon the answer he was looking for would be revealed!
Cheng Cangbo took a deep breath after putting down the phone microphone! The editorial and suspenseful puzzle has been solved, not only that, but there is also a gift waiting for him Cheng Cangbo!
The eyes of the members of the "Central Daily" newspaper moved with their president, and Cheng Cangbo walked to the corridor in front of his office step by step, everyone wanted to see something from Cheng Cangbo's expression, but Cheng Cangbo's face was always unfazed.
What's going on in Nanjing?
People's hearts suddenly rose to their throats!
Qian Ruhai's hands crossed his fingers hard, his joints had been pinched white, due to extreme nervousness, Qian Ruhai couldn't hear Cheng Cangbo's next words clearly, he only heard something intermittently:
"Nanjing....! Open Radio...! General Huang .....! ”
People turned their backs and were in a hurry, Cheng Cangbo's few words made the members of the "Central Daily" newspaper explode!
Nanjing is not lost! General Huang Haoran is making a speech on the radio at the moment against Japanese Prime Minister Fumima Konoe! Everyone wants to hear what Huang Haoran said on the radio right away! The radio in the living room on the first floor has become a treasure in everyone's eyes at this moment!
"Where's the plug! Plug it in!! ”
"How many bands? Who knows? ”
"Hiss..... Creak..... Shout.... Hiss"
When the radio began to search for radio waves, the whole building fell silent again! Captain Zhao, who was on guard at the gate, turned around suspiciously and looked at the suddenly quiet and noisy newspaper office building, everything he experienced this night seemed so unbelievable!
"New Year's message
Huang Haoran, deputy commander of the Nanjing Urban Defense Command
In the early morning of New Year's Day 1938, I wish my motherland to become brave!
In recent years, China has been striving for self-improvement and is about to transform itself into a modern country from a unified Chinese nation. However, Japanese imperialism did not want us to do so, and brazenly launched a war of aggression in an attempt to weaken the morale of our nation.
In the eyes of Japanese imperialism, China has always been regarded as cowardly and incompetent, and it is not fully prepared militarily. However, now that we have decided to abandon our previous policy of tolerance, we will no longer endure the aggression, brutality and unreasonable insults of the violent enemy, and the whole country will rise up and fight for the survival of the nation!
The Japanese government, accustomed not only to deceive its own people, but also to deceive the whole world, has sought all sorts of excuses to cover up their failures! The Japanese army had concentrated their navy, army and air force, and with the latest weapons, artillery and chariots, in order to realize their ambitions, the Japanese land minister Sugiyama Moto, boasted of the destruction of China's Haikou in three months.
Now, more than four months have passed! Our army is still resisting bravely! China is still China! From Peking to Songhu, from Songhu to Nanjing! Chinese soldiers defended the dignity of the country and the nation with a sea of corpses and a sea of blood! The aggression of Japanese imperialism not only did not make our national will die, but on the contrary, it brought our compatriots closer together! Hatred of the enemy!
Under the city of Nanjing, tens of thousands of Japanese soldiers were killed and wounded! On the edge of Lishui City, the 114th Division was all annihilated! The 200,000-strong Japanese army besieged Nanjing for nearly a month, and still could not break the will of the defenders of Nanjing, which may be the reason why Prime Minister Konoe lied.
For such a shameless enemy, it is useless to pray for peace with them, and China's lost dignity can only be fought back by our bravery! The next war of resistance will become more intense, in the past, China compromised to seek perfection, and countries around the world are often surprised why our country did not engage in resistance, and now China has suddenly woken up! Our War of Resistance is for the sovereignty of the country and the survival of the nation!
What is there to say about the Western countries, which are indifferent to all of the above, and who easily abandon the treaties they have concluded. We, the Chinese, who have been known for cowardice and hard work over the years, will do everything in our power to resist to the end. We will fight to the final victory, or the final fiasco. Even if the great rivers and mountains and the long history are stained with bright red blood, or destroyed in fierce flames, they will not hesitate!
In the face of the devouring jackal, we can only pick up knives and guns! Just have the confidence to win! In this way, we will be able to overcome and win no matter what the trials and difficulties.
The officers and men on the front line should strengthen unity, strictly observe military discipline, and show the world our courage, and do not forget that there are 40,000 reliable compatriots behind us, who are our solid backing!
The people in the rear should also have the confidence and determination of the officers and men on the front line who are not afraid of difficulties, overcome some difficulties, do a good job in production, and support the war of resistance.
God bless China! We will surely achieve the final victory in the War of Resistance!
That's all I wrote in Nanjing's New Year's message."
Cheng Cangbo leaned on the corridor on the second floor and listened to Huang Haoran's New Year's speech in response to Konoe Fumima, two lines of tears flowed out of his eyes, silent......
