The plane flew smoothly above the clouds. Song Meiling looked at the two Junkers three-engine transport planes outside the window with interest, admiring An Yi's attentiveness and generosity very much.
In the past few days, Zhang Jingjiang, Yu Qiaqing, Ou Yaoting, Lin Xudong, Zhang Xi and others and their families have left one after another. Anyi sent military transport planes to transport these elders, relatives and friends to Shanghai. On the way back, they specially took in the Shanghai branch of Jiangnan Group.
A group of orphans were brought back to Xu Mansion and placed in his Boy Scout School.
Soong Meiling originally planned to return with Zhang Jingjiang and others. When she saw the Southern Sichuan People's Congress being solemnly held, she thought deeply and called Chiang Kai-shek to stay and observe the meeting. She received strong support from Chiang Kai-shek. Chiang Kai-shek told Soong Meiling in his reply,
If possible, all efforts should be made to mobilize An Yi to return to Nanjing together, as a member of the Central Supervisory Committee, to attend the special meeting held by the central government on the 23rd, and then go to Lushan to discuss military affairs together and negotiate the increasingly severe current situation in Fujian.
During the four-day meeting, Soong Meiling was very impressed by the enthusiasm of the people's representatives in southern Sichuan for participating in politics and the trust and support of the representatives to the government. The fair and open leadership style of the southern Sichuan government also left a deep impression on Soong Meiling. In yesterday's closing ceremony
As soon as An Yi appeared on the stage, he won warm applause from all the representatives for more than three minutes.
Song Meiling, who was watching from the back row of the rostrum, could even see the tears in the eyes of the people's representatives in the audience. Song Meiling was deeply shocked by the trust and love of the representatives for An Yi. She knew very well that the excited smiling faces and voices
The cheers from the heart, and the tears in the eyes of each representative, what kind of emotion and trust do they contain.
Listening to the roar of the aircraft motor, Song Meiling turned her head, glanced at An Yi who was immersed in reading next to her, and asked in a low voice: "An Yi, how did you remember to submit the Press and Publication Law and the Labor Security Law?
, the three proposals for the "Regulations on the Management of Parades and Demonstrations"? Have you ever thought that it would be vetoed by representatives from the cultural sector or trade union organizations?"
An Yi closed the book and answered: "We have been brewing these three proposals for more than a year. The reason is that we have seen that in recent years, the news publications and demonstrations across the country have been very chaotic and in a disorderly and out-of-control state. The National Government
Although there are corresponding legal provisions in the Constitution, which confirm citizens' freedom of speech and rights to process and demonstrate, these are general and outline legal provisions without corresponding implementation details.
"Take Nanjing as an example. There are no less than 300 newspapers and magazines of various sizes. A rough calculation shows that publishing houses affiliated to the central government and various ministries, universities and social groups account for about half of them. The rest are basically all owned by individuals.
Just fill it in randomly in the government propaganda department
With a list, anyone can engrave wax plates and print newspapers by themselves. Putting aside the Communist Party and left-wing forces, a large number of Japanese traitors and unscrupulous traders' newspapers are flying all over the sky. If a national crisis comes, these messy newspapers will be
There will be many hidden dangers and endless troubles!"
"You are right. The Japanese have penetrated our culture, politics and public opinion very seriously. It is even more shocking than the reactionary propaganda of the Communist Party. Your principal knows this very well. If it were not for the suppression of bandits,
He has already started rectifying it." Song Meiling felt the same way.
An Yi continued: "Yes! Master, you also know how much manpower, material resources, financial resources and effort the students have invested in southern Sichuan. It took several years of hard work to get on the right track and see some results. How can we allow it at this time?
Reactionary forces with ulterior motives came in to carry out subversion? If it were not for the purpose of ensuring the legislative basis of these three bills and the legal basis for their implementation, students would have forcibly implemented them in the name of the Office of Appeasement.
"The reason why it is discussed and voted on at the People's Congress is entirely to have a solid and unquestionable legal basis in the future law enforcement process. Now that all three bills have been passed, we can openly and openly ban those that violate legal norms.
Newspapers and magazines can maintain the safety of people's demonstrations and create a stable, rational, and legal social order.
, only in this way can the healthy and stable development of southern Sichuan be ensured. The "Labor Security Law" is an effective supplement to the other two laws, and has a positive effect on alleviating people's life pressure and protecting the legal rights and dignity of workers, farmers, and employees.
It also gives trade unions in various industries a legal basis to safeguard their rights, which is very beneficial to alleviating conflicts between the government and the people."
Song Meiling nodded appreciatively: "You have done a good job. Southern Sichuan is leading the country in everything. It is not easy! Yesterday I went to visit the Southern Sichuan Office of the Central Party Committee. Liu Kun and others took the newly published "Three Rivers"
The Daily said to me that they misunderstood you before, but now they know your good intentions and they admire you very much!"
"Excellent. This is the result of collective efforts. The students are just choosing one. The government ministries, parliamentary standing committees and consultants are really doing the work. Without their hard work, how could the students be as comfortable as they are now?" An Yi
Explain with a smile.
Song Meiling looked at An Yi angrily: "It's not good that you are always so humble! Those who know understand that you are speaking from the heart, and those who don't know will say that you are insidious and cunning, haha! One more thing, the Xufu Zoo project has received so much
The support from the public is really unexpected. I never expected it.
, in just three days, we received more than 600,000 special donations from people from all walks of life in Xufu, Luzhou and other places. There are also so many chambers of commerce who have joined forces and proactively promised to share the overrun expenses after the completion of the zoo. It seems that it is the first in the country.
A zoo will be completed in your residence."
An Yi smiled: "In the past, students were so cautious because they were afraid of being stabbed in the back by the whole country... The Yellow River disaster was full of refugees. People had nothing to eat, but they had money to raise animals. It's scary for people to scold them! I can't do it.
The reputation I worked so hard to build was ruined like this... Fortunately,
Fortunately, the folks in southern Sichuan are very open-minded and honest, and have a passionate pursuit of a better life. This time our government has handed over the decision-making power to the people, and the pressure on students has been reduced a lot, and in exchange for a fair, democratic, and compliant
The good reputation of public opinion, haha! It can be said that it achieves many things with one stone."
"You are such a cunning guy. You can easily accomplish things that others dare not even think of. It's amazing to think about it! If I have a chance in the future, I really want to visit southern Yunnan. Your newspaper and radio station have mentioned southern Yunnan
The landscape and scenery are like other people's fairyland, which makes people yearn for it." Song Meiling said with a smile.
An Yi suggested: "As long as the teacher's wife wants to go, when can't she? She can just go there on the grounds of condolences to the victims and inspecting the resettlement situation. If the principal is willing, it will be more convenient, just say something.
The trip is a success. The airport there has also been repaired. It only takes a few hours from Nanjing to southern Yunnan, which is very convenient. One more thing, at the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the opening of the railway,
Doesn’t the principal hope that students will find ways to raise funds to build a railway to Chongqing? This is easy to do. The Ministry of Railways has already made a plan. All that is missing is money. If the principal is interested, the students can ask the chairman and president of the Bank of the United States to
Manager Zhang Xi, please come to the principal's office to discuss fund loan matters. Not only the railway project, but other loans can be discussed."
Song Meiling was extremely surprised: "Great! An Yi, this time you have helped your principal a lot. Ziwen was under too much pressure during this period, and he was planning to resign. He was unwilling to help you again before the financial reform was rolled out.
The principal raised money and borrowed money. Now that you can introduce Mr. Zhang Xi, a famous American financier, to the principal, he must be very happy and very comforted."
An Yi smiled humbly and told Song Meiling in detail about Zhang Xi's recent situation and his rapidly rising status in the American financial world. Afterwards, he brought it to Lu Kaiming, chairman of Hong Kong Nanhua Company.
An Yi turned around and told Shen Feng to say something, then took a beautiful gold-inlaid velvet gift box and sent it to Soong Meiling: "Teacher, please open it and take a look. If you like it, keep it as a souvenir."
Song Meiling took it curiously, put it on her lap and looked at it lovingly for a while, then opened it and exclaimed: "Oh my god! It's so beautiful...where did you get it?"
"It's the diamond-encrusted gold couple's watch specially made by the Swiss Omega company as a gift from the Lu Kaiming I just introduced. Look, Master, I've never seen such a small and elegant women's watch, right? The latest masterpiece of a Swiss watchmaker, completely handmade.
Carefully crafted, there is only such a pair in the world." An Yi explained in a low voice.
Song Meiling closed the box and reluctantly handed it back to An Yi: "I can't accept it, it's too valuable!"
An Yi smiled brightly: "Isn't my wife a stranger? Tell her the truth. This time Lu Kaiming came with the Far East representative of the Swiss Omega Company. They decided to open a watch factory in Xufu. Most of the spare parts used were from Lu Kaiming's Hong Kong.
Produced by watch companies, they are interested in our country’s huge
market, the contract has been signed, and within six months they will build a brand new watch factory and an instrument factory in Xufu to meet the production equipment and product supporting needs of our enterprises in southern Sichuan. They are here
If you are the first to enter the field, you will make a lot of money! What does a pair of watches mean?
"Furthermore, the students drew several models of military watches and fashion watches with their own hands, and handed them to Lu Kaiming to take to Switzerland to discuss with their headquarters. If the students' requirements can be met, the demand for them will be met by the officers at all levels under the students' command.
No more than 3,000. For them, this is a huge potential profit. The students are already losing money if they don’t charge them the design fee. Isn’t it just a piece of cake for him to give them a pair of watches? Haha! Just accept it, Master.
, just treat it as a toy."
"In that case, I'll accept it, thank you!" Song Meiling happily took it, her eyes turned into slits with smiles.
An Yi looked at his watch and said in a low voice: "Mrs., I won't attend tonight's social banquet when I get to Nanjing. I haven't been back for such a long time and I don't want to make people from all walks of life and reporters make a fuss. After the meeting tomorrow morning,
The students flew directly to Nanchang, went up to Lushan Mountain to meet the principal, and then went to see the resettlement site for the victims. There was also the Jiangnan Pharmaceutical Factory.
All the shares have been transferred to several bosses in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. The students have put so much effort into it. I feel nostalgic. I want to take a walk and have a look. I also go to Wanshou Palace to meet some Taoist masters. The one behind us is
On the plane, my old classmate Zhang Tianyi suffered a leg injury, so I took him along to ask a Taoist Xinglin master to help him treat it."
Song Meiling nodded: "Your considerations are very reasonable. It is always better to keep a low profile. By the way, you'd better bring Zhang Tianyi to meet your principal in person this time and explain his actual situation. Lu Diping
I will say hello to him there. Your principal has always cherished his students and would not let his students be wronged. What's more, Zhang Tianyi was injured for the party and the country and endured the humiliation.
If you want to clarify the situation, your principal will naturally find a way to help Zhang Tianyi restore his military rank and position. Your bold suggestion is that if there is no suitable position in the army for a while, it would be fine to ask Zhang Tianyi to return to southern Sichuan to help you. Zhang Tianyi is not a fourth-phase engineer from Huangpu.
Are you a top student in this department? You have studied military at Frunze University in Russia for so many years, and you have actual experience in leading troops. Where can you find such talents?"
"Thank you, Madam! The students must report the situation to the principal truthfully." An Yi smiled gratefully.
