Chapter XXXVII

Wang Maoru gave Gu Chengyong another idea, saying that he would not be allowed to attack the Kuomintang and the Progressive Party in the weekly magazine, and only attack a certain person, and attack everyone in terms of character, and it is absolutely impossible to say how the Kuomintang is, giving people the feeling that the duty of this newspaper is to broadcast news, let the people know the truth, let the public know the truth, this weekly is the most authentic and neutral newspaper, and can even report some elegant things of some people who support His Majesty.

Gu Chengyong listened to Yuan Keding's instructions to obey Wang Maoru's ideas, so he conscientiously carried them out, carefully reported on the Yuan faction, and boldly reported on the anti-Yuan faction, seemingly neutrally exposing all kinds of ** of the Kuomintang. At the behest of Wang Maoru, he reported on Sun Wen, who was far away in Japan, abandoned his wife, embezzled donations from overseas Chinese in Nanyang, and reported it in places where he lingered in Japan.

Some people don't believe it, Wang Maoru came up with the idea to let Gu Chengyong send people to find Sun Wenyuan's abandoned wife Da Yuexun and daughter in Japan, and reported the embarrassment of the lives of these two, saying that Sun Wenwen has a romantic personality and loves Yin's friend**, but he loves to abandon his wife and so on.

At this time, Sun Wen was chasing after Qingling, the second daughter of the Zhejiang chaebol Song family, in Japan, and Qingling, who was only 22 years old, was squinting for Sun Wenqing, and she also secretly promised that the report of "East Weekly" on Sun Wen's repeated abandonment of his wife and daughter, as well as the photos of Da Yuexun's embarrassment in life, were even reported by Japanese newspapers, and the Song family was even more opposed to them when they heard about it. Sun Wen angrily dropped a few cups in a row, scolding "East Weekly" for hurting people and morality, not a thing, but he couldn't refute the untruthfulness of what East Weekly.

People within the KMT also began to complain about Sun Wen, and they hurriedly found Da Yuexun and her daughter, and took them to Sun Wen, in order to save the reputation of the KMT leader. However, Sun Wen didn't know how to face this pair of Japanese wives and daughters at this time, because he wanted to pursue the daughter of the Song chaebol, and how could Da Yuexun and his daughter chase other women by his side. Somehow, this matter was discovered by the reporter of "East Weekly", and it was reported that Sun Wen pursued the second daughter of the Song chaebol, clinged to wealth, abandoned his original wife and used all kinds of means to obtain the wealth of the Song family, etc. When the Song family heard this, they were even more angry, and they became more and more resolute in opposing the marriage between Qingling and Sun Wen.

What do Chinese people love?

The Chinese people love to be lively, to join in the fun, and to gossip.

The emergence of the extremely gossip newspaper "East Weekly" has given the Chinese people the ability to talk and laugh after dinner, and this kind of talk and laughter has won the trust of the people more than those mainstream newspapers. Gu Chengyong, the owner of the newspaper, suddenly became the boss of a big newspaper, and the "East Weekly" opened nine more branches in Shanghai, Tianjin, Nanjing, Guangzhou, Shenyang, Changsha, Wuhan, Chengdu, and Jinan. Even Yuan Shikai also ordered a copy of "East Weekly", and when he was fine, he couldn't be happy to look at the scandals of celebrities.

Yuan Shikai called Lu Jianzhang and asked him what was going on with the newspaper, and Lu Jianzhang originally told the story of the Dagongzi version of the newspaper that made a stinky anti-Yuan faction, and said that his spy was also responsible for assisting. Yuan Shikai laughed and said: "How could this stinky boy think of this trick, okay, ruthless enough, we don't have to bear the infamy, and we can't beat Sun Wen and those people." It's strange, the gimbal wouldn't have thought of this trick, right? Was it Yang Huizi's idea for him? ”

Lu Jianzhang said: "This is not, it is the idea of Wang Maoru, deputy chief of the flight section of the Ministry of Communications, and now he has won the trust of the eldest prince and is a staff member for the eldest prince in private." ”

"It turned out to be Wang Xiusheng, Mr. Xiusheng." Yuan Shikai touched his bald head and said with a smile: "It's rare that he really helps me, good, good." By the way, have you inquired about his origin, don't skip words.

Lu Jianzhang said: "The information that my subordinates heard is that this Wang Mao is like a beautiful character, and his family was also in Beijing in his early years, just over Dongjiaomin Lane. Later, the Eight-Nation Coalition entered Beijing, and the old family was gone. He grew up in Europe overseas, his parents died early, and he wandered in Europe for several years, so he traveled to European countries and was well-informed. Later, after returning to China, he met the Japanese journalist Kozang Pingliang of the "Shuncheon Times", and then wrote a series of articles entitled "The Rise of Great Powers" to study international relations, which was highly valued by the Japanese. Yan Fu Yan invited him to teach at Peking University, and then Yan Jidao resigned as the president of Peking University, and he also resigned. The Japanese invited him to teach international relations at Yokohama University, and after Wang Xiusheng went to Japan, he said that the Japanese looked down on the Chinese, so he went to Europe instead. He made a fortune selling stockings in Europe and the United States, and when he returned home, he opened these factories. Maybe he saw the plane in Europe and the United States, so he opened an aircraft factory, but his subordinates heard that the aircraft factory was losing money, but it was just his personal hobby, and he could do it if he lost money. Most of the money made by other factories went to aircraft factories. It is said that he is very familiar with the ladies in the European and American embassy districts, and some people say that he took the route of his wife and became a guest of the scene, whether it is true or a rumor, but I don't know. In addition, he established the first open library in our country, called Baihui Building, and there is an endless stream of people who go to read every day, but they are all students. I sent someone to check, and no one spoke in the building for hundreds of years, and it was quiet, even the canteen below also upheld the gentleman's covenant of eating and sleeping silently, so no one gathered here. ”

Yuan Shikai laughed and said: "This Wang Maoru also has some skills, what else?" ”

Lu Jianzhang hurriedly bowed his head and said: "This person has set up Xinghua Industry in China, opened five factories and four stores, and is the big boss of Beijing's business community. This person has a lot of experience, it is said that the big bandit Gai Tianjiu kidnapped eight workers of his flour mill, this person single-handedly entered the bandit's den, brought people back, Gai Tianjiu admired this person's popularity, and threatened that no one was allowed to touch Wang Maoru on the Zhili Road, and he was nicknamed the Gun God Scholar. ”

Yuan Shikai smiled and asked: "Lang Zhai, do you know if he has anything to do with the Kuomintang?" ”

Lu Jianzhang said: "I think this person not only has nothing to do with the Kuomintang, but also looks at the Kuomintang quite unpleasantly, it is he who gave Gu Chengyong the idea to stink Sun Wen and made Sun Wen famous as modern Chen Shimei." The people of the Kuomintang all regarded Sun Dacang as a god, and they would definitely not make such a trick. However, this person is familiar with the children of the clan, and the old Miura on the Enibel Mansion is his brother who worships the son. This person is exquisite, and he makes friends everywhere, and if a Beijing businessman asks for him, there is nothing he can't do. ”

Yuan Shikai touched the beard on his mouth and said with a smile: "This person is interesting, how old is he?" ”

"Twenty-seven."

Yuan Shikai nodded and said: "This person I refused to accept the previous expedition, but now he has become a staff member for Keding, it is really ......."

Lu Jianzhang said: "I think this person has a long way to go, take one step and see three steps, otherwise he won't be able to write an article like "The Rise of a Great Power". He is now the number one thinker under Keding, and in the future, Keding will take over the position of the president, and he will not make a first hero? ”

Yuan Shikai laughed and said, "If you have a chance, you can make an appointment for me, I really want to meet him." ”

Yuan Keding got the help of Wang Maoru's funds, and Wang Maoru also got the help of Yuan Keding's resources, and after getting Yuan Keding's approval, he got to know Yuan Keding and knew many people from the Beiyang government, such as Yuan Shikai's advocacy of the Six Gentlemen of the Imperial System and the Thirteen Taibao, these people are very capable. Every time Wang Maoru went to the Bada Hutong with a few of them, he was generous, so that these people had a good impression of him. During this period, when Zhu Qichao, one of the 13 Taibao of the Minister of Internal Affairs, built Beijing Central Park (later renamed Beiping Central Park), Wang Maoru actively supported and funded 50,000 oceans, and added a lot of fitness equipment to the park, expanding the park a lot, and won the title of a good man. Seeing that he had done such a righteous deed, Zhu Qichao helped him register with the Ministry of the Interior as a nominal counselor of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, enjoying the immunity of the Ministry of Internal Affairs as a policeman.
