The Americans have no way of knowing the source of this information, but for Fang, a former battleship enthusiast, the post-World War I giant ships such as the Nagato and Yamato are completely untimely products.

It's difficult.

But at a time when the naval battle model has not yet undergone huge changes, such a piece of information is really stressful for the U.S. Navy. If you fight, you have to face a huge caliber cannon. It's uncomfortable to be hit by this thing, right? Run, generally

The battleship could not outrun the Nagato, and the insidious Japanese deceived the world, claiming that the speed was only 23 knots.

Of course, the Chinese did not have good intentions in providing this information, but at a critical point when Wilson was trying to push for a naval limitation treaty, such an information came very timely.

Fang Jianxiong arrived in New York and stayed in the hotel. He claimed that he was resting due to fatigue from the journey. In fact, after a brief rest and lunch, Fang Jianxiong accompanied Alice, a beautiful girl who was still a young girl, out.

I have never been to New York in my last life, so I naturally want to take a walk in this life. Naturally, I have to take a look at the Statue of Liberty. The Statue of Liberty, located on Liberty Island, is known as a symbol of the United States and freedom.

Of course, Fang Jianxiong couldn't just go out lightly, but he didn't make a big noise. The security personnel cleared the place in advance and just found an excuse. Of course, they could only stand on a high ground on the shore from a distance, looking at this huge symbol of the United States.

Fang, who was determined to be romantic, and Alice stood affectionately in the wind, cuddling each other. It was winter. Alice, whose face was red, did not feel too cold, and was always excited. After so many years of waiting,

, finally there was a result. For her, everything that happened after arriving in New York was like a dream.

Holding this man's hand and appearing in front of countless welcoming people to receive cheers, that feeling can drive a woman crazy. It is said that successful men are extremely charming. No woman can resist being able to bring a woman to such a scene.

The feeling of extreme vanity. The welcoming scene of hundreds of thousands of people makes Alice tremble all over when thinking about it.

Fortunately, Fang Jianxiong had no intention of wandering elsewhere and went back to the hotel to rest after watching the Statue of Liberty. Of course Alice would not leave Fang's room, she would have to live or die.

The people who came to visit at this time were undoubtedly annoying, but someone still came. In fact, they were representatives of Chinese Americans who had been arranged long ago. This matter was arranged while they were still on the road. The time when Fang Jianxiong came to the United States

It won't be too long, and every itinerary is tightly arranged.

Fifty-three-year-old Situ Meitang returned to China ten years ago (1910). It was still the Qing Dynasty. For a patriotic overseas Chinese, returning home was undoubtedly disappointing. Since the Republic of China, the trend of overseas Chinese returning to China has been booming, and Situ Meitang

Tang, however, has no intention of going back again. He mainly wants to see the scenery.

This is related to Situ Meitang's continuous support of Sun. The domestic changes have been huge in recent years. What overseas Chinese feel most deeply is the change in the status of Chinese in the United States. The status of Chinese in the United States is very low, even lower than that of black people. In 1882, "

The Chinese Exclusion Act was promulgated. In 1902, this temporary bill became a permanent bill, which triggered the boycott of American goods in China in 1905. It forced the United States to make some adjustments. This bill left the United States with

Ironclad evidence of racial discrimination in history.

If history were not distorted, the parallel history would be 1924 and 1930. This bill would also promulgate new immigration regulations to prevent Chinese workers from entering the United States.

To put it bluntly, from the day the Chinese workers set foot in the United States, every step they take will leave a bloody footprint.

With the rise of the Republic of China, some members of the U.S. Congress have repeatedly proposed in Congress to repeal the "Chinese Exclusion Act" because of their huge interests in China. Also because of the huge interests, the social status of overseas Chinese in the United States has been invisibly affected.

Some subtle changes have taken place. Chinese people who used to encounter discriminatory looks wherever they went now have much fewer similar feelings.

Fang Jianxiong and five Chinese representatives headed by Situ Meitang were talking in the living room. Alice temporarily acted as a waiter, enjoying tea and water. After working for a while, she sat next to Fang Jianxiong and listened to their conversation quietly.

"I invited everyone here today. I didn't plan to say anything. I just had a pair of ears. If you have any demands that the country needs to do, you can tell me. During the Sishui Port case, Mr. Fang was still very weak and did not ask

The Dutch compromised. What they said then still stands today, and they are the strongest backing for overseas Chinese at all times. This has never wavered."

After Fang Jianxiong's opening remarks, all the Chinese representatives present burst into tears. Situ Meitang burst into tears and murmured in a low voice: "For how many years, how many years, we overseas wanderers have finally been looking forward to this day."

The overseas Chinese talked a lot, and Fang Jianxiong listened attentively, holding a small book in his hand and taking notes from time to time. During the conversation, Fang Jianxiong kept smiling, without the slightest attitude of a national leader overlooking his life. You must know that we are now so far away

Less than ten years after the fall of the Qing Dynasty, many remnants of the Manchu Qing Dynasty are still clamoring for restoration. In the minds of the vast majority of Chinese people, Fang Jianxiong is like the emperor in the past. Today, these Chinese representatives can sit across from the emperor and speak, and they get

The importance attached to it made these Chinese representatives even more excited.

In history, when the motherland was in danger, there were many overseas Chinese who did not hesitate to destroy their families to save the country. In history, when the mountains and rivers were shattered and the nation was in danger, overseas Chinese donated their last copper coins and sent their beloved children back to the country to fight in the war.

A few. From the Xiangzan Revolution in the late Qing Dynasty to the countless donations made during the Anti-Japanese War, the overseas Chinese have left countless commendable deeds.

Facing such faces with the same skin color and the same eyes, Fang Jianxiong could not forget what he saw in some historical texts. In today's time and space, when Fang Jianxiong truly faces this patriotic heart, he will not let these hearts become cold.

"The purpose of this visit to the United States is to strengthen military, cultural, and economic and trade exchanges between China and the United States. In front of all overseas elders, the chairman of this committee solemnly stated that he will go to Washington to meet with President Wilson tomorrow and will formally propose to the United States the abolition of the "

"Chinese Exclusion Act" to improve the social status of overseas Chinese in the United States. At the same time, after returning to China, the chairman of the committee will recommend to Congress that overseas Chinese investors return to the country to enjoy all the treatment enjoyed by foreign investors. Since the rise of the revolutionary trend in the late Qing Dynasty, overseas Chinese have

He contributed a lot and objectively made a huge contribution to burying the decadent Manchu Qing government. These contributions will be remembered in the annals of history. It has only been nine years since the founding of the Republic of China. During this period, many overseas Chinese returned to the country. This person was active in various aspects of the country.

They have made great contributions to the prosperity of the Republic of China and the rise of the nation, and they will also be remembered in the annals of history. In the past nine years, after taking over the devastated mountains and rivers from the Qing Dynasty, the road to self-improvement for the nation was clear. No matter under any difficult conditions, China

The sons and daughters of the nation have never given up their firm will to continue on this difficult road. In 2014, Japan bullied the weak, and our nascent Republic of China defeated the strong with the weak. Tens of thousands of soldiers shed blood on the battlefield and achieved an epic and glorious victory. This revealed

It opened the curtain of national rejuvenation. I still remember that the air force launched an attack at that time, and its members were all composed of overseas Chinese children and overseas volunteers. In that battle, more than 20 overseas Chinese children spilled their blood in the sky, and their names will go down in history. Now we have become more

As we become stronger, we will never forget the contributions made by overseas Chinese to the motherland..."

After listening to what the Chinese representatives had to say, Fang Jianxiong spoke for about five minutes, which can be regarded as a speech. After this meeting, there was another trend of overseas Chinese returning to the country to invest and start businesses. These are all things for a later time. The important thing is that from then on,

Among the Chinese and overseas Chinese, a consensus has basically been reached: any words or deeds that oppose the current government will be boycotted by the Chinese and overseas Chinese in public. This consensus was subsequently discussed at a joint meeting of overseas Chinese in May with Situ

Under the joint initiative of Meitang and other overseas Chinese representatives in the United States, representatives of various overseas Chinese organizations around the world unanimously approved it and formed a written resolution. It became one of the expressly stipulated contents in the newly established constitution of the newly established "Overseas Chinese Federation"

.

"Lansing, the purpose of the Chinese in providing this information is very clear. It seems that the treaty restricting the navy will be promoted as soon as possible." Wilson sat next to the burning fireplace, holding a cup of black tea in his hand, looking at the Secretary of State opposite

Lansing.

"Tomorrow Fang Jianxiong will leave for Washington. We can exchange opinions on this issue on the way. The Chinese are more anxious than us about limiting the size of the navy. Just look at the fact that China bought five warships from Britain in one go." Lansing is not in a hurry.

Wilson answered slowly, looking attentive in thought, and said after a while: "Not necessarily, the Chinese have always been very cautious in their investment in the navy. Counting the two 19,000-ton battleships under construction, the Chinese have a total of

There are only nine warships, which is still far behind Japan. Moreover, the warships sold by the British have been in service for many years. They cannot defeat the Japanese Nagato."

Lansing said: "You have forgotten the two 32,000-ton battlecruisers being built in the United States. Although I don't quite understand the Chinese's obsession with speed. With these two battleships, the Japanese will have nightmares when they sleep at night.

of."

Wilson said: "It seems that the bottom line of the size of the Chinese navy needs to be tested. I am afraid that the British side does not need our persuasion. They will be more enthusiastic than us in limiting the size of the navy."

Lansing said: "To what extent do you think the size of the Chinese navy should be limited?"
