Of course, I don’t blame everyone for having this question. Since everyone writes about the Republic of China, the Qing Dynasty will naturally be over!
This is easy to understand.
2. The question of whether to strive for hegemony or not
History is not only about the struggle for hegemony, there are too many stories that can be written.
Is it true that history can only be characterized by decisive killings, that my fate is up to me, and that we should not bully young people into poverty?
And if we really want to write about the struggle for hegemony, we won’t write about the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, but the late Ming Dynasty and the early Qing Dynasty...
3. The problem of the protagonist’s direction
In fact, a group of friends asked me this very early on, and I answered: establish your reputation first, manage things first and work later.
This is a reasonable logic of first easy and then difficult. Since it does not involve military affairs, this is the only way to do it. Otherwise, who will listen to the protagonist?
Some people wonder if doing science now is just helping the West?
No!
Even now, many talents from developing countries, including ours, still go abroad, but why are we still developing so fast?
It may seem like you are giving blood to someone else, but you are actually giving yourself blood.
How can we make progress if we are reluctant to let go of our children and can’t trap the wolf without making any sacrifices? Should we keep them in a circle and guard the country behind closed doors?
This is the only way to go.
The pattern must be opened, after all, everyone is free. Just like molecules all move irregularly, but the whole has statistical rules to follow.
