Ten o'clock in the morning, Shanghai Chinachem Hotel Plaza.
Since a public broadcasting station is installed next to the square, and the broadcasting often broadcasts information such as job search and recruitment, and sometimes even storytelling, a large number of Shanghai citizens will gather in Chinachem Square every broadcast time. .
Although it is not public broadcasting time, there are still many people gathered in the square. These people include students, workers, white-collar workers, and even wealthy businessmen, but most of them are refugees!
At this moment, everyone turned their heads and listened quietly to the voice coming from the radio.
A naughty child just made a noise, which immediately attracted the sternest looks from his parents, who were so frightened that they dared not say anything anymore! Even the swaddled baby became extraordinarily quiet.
On the radio, a deep Ningbo accent was speaking.
"Compatriots, although we won the Battle of Wuhan, it was not easy to win!"
"In order to win the Battle of Wuhan, the 200,000 officers and soldiers of our Wuhan Garrison held on to Wuhan for two months and paid a heavy price of more than 150,000 sacrifices. Even in the Xiaogan and Yunwushan siege battles that just ended, we also had Fifty thousand people died, and the war was tragic and cruel!"
¡°Our soldiers are not afraid of sacrifice!¡±
"But as the living, we cannot let the soldiers bleed and shed tears at the same time!"
"We cannot let the parents of the soldiers lose their support, and we cannot let the children of the soldiers have no one to support them!"
"Our soldiers have sacrificed their precious lives for this country and this nation, and we can no longer let their souls in heaven be able to rest in peace!"
"Compatriots, please lend a helping hand!"
"Please lend your helping hand and do what you can for these lovely warriors!"
"To be honest, as the leader of a country's government, I feel really ashamed to say such words on the radio. It is the government's duty to care for the fallen soldiers and treat the injured and disabled soldiers. How can it be changed Putting this responsibility on the general public? How can you be so irresponsible?"
"Compatriots, we really have no choice!"
"First the four eastern provinces fell, then North China fell, and not long ago Central China also fell!"
¡°The country¡¯s financial and tax sources are close to drying up. We have done everything we can to support the two million troops, and we still borrowed a lot of foreign debt!¡±
"Originally, no matter how difficult it is, I will never open my mouth!"
"But now that we have won the Battle of Wuhan, our army and our country are about to shift into a strategic counter-offensive. At this time, it is even more necessary for our compatriots across the country and overseas Chinese to work together and concentrate all manpower and material resources to drive the Japanese invaders out of China. Restore our sovereignty to China!"
"Compatriots, victory is not far ahead!"
"Compatriots, please lend a helping hand!"
"Compatriots, let us unite, accumulate all our strength, and launch a general attack on the Japanese invaders!"
In an instant, the entire square was filled with joy. Students, workers, white-collar workers, and businessmen all were inspired by the radio speech and cheered with their hands raised in the air.
After a while, some students started shouting slogans.
"Long live the Chinese nation!"
¡°Down with Japanese imperialism!¡±
"Drive Japanese aggression out of China!"
¡°The Chinese people are invincible!¡±
Amid the enthusiastic slogans of the students, workers, white-collar workers and businessmen all walked towards the donation boxes placed on the edge of the square and donated their meager salaries, or only their wages!
But there are also wealthy businessmen who generously donate huge sums of money!
Among the people who enthusiastically donated money, we once again saw the gorgeously dressed social butterflies.
A Western scholar happened to be passing by Chinachem Square. When he saw this scene, he said with emotion: "If a nation even knows how to be patriotic to its prostitutes, then it will be impossible for this nation not to be strong!"
¡¡
It was not just wealthy businessmen in Shanghai who donated huge sums of money, but also overseas Chinese in Southeast Asia.
At this moment, in Singapore, Mr. Tan Kah Kee gently turned off the radio.
After closing his eyes to collect his thoughts, Mr. Tan Kah Kee opened his eyes again and said, "Butler!"
An elderly butler with black-rimmed eyes slowly came to Mr. Tan Kah Kee and said respectfully: "What are your orders, sir?"
I patted the chair armrest, Chen Jiageng.The teacher said softly but firmly: "Sell another three thousand acres of rubber plantation. The proceeds will be converted into pounds and transferred to the account of the Nanqiao Federation. Then, in the name of the Nanqiao Federation, it will be donated to the people of Chongqing." Government, at this time when the situation is great, we overseas wanderers should contribute to the motherland!"
¡¡
Ten o'clock in the morning Beijing time is ten o'clock in the evening New York time.
Hongmen boss Situ Meitang was also listening to the Central News Agency broadcast.
Listening to the broadcast with Situ Meitang, there are also all the members of the Anliang General Church in New York!
As early as when Mr. Sun Wen founded the Tongmenghui, Situ Meitang was a hardcore supporter of the Chinese revolution, and his relationship with the Kuomintang has always been very close.
This time, we also learned early that President Chang would give a speech on the radio.
Therefore, Situ Meitang summoned all the members of Anliang Main Hall to the main hall early!
After listening to the broadcast, the entire Anliang Hall immediately burst into excitement. All members, including Mr. Situ Meitang, cheered because the Anti-Japanese War was about to be won!
Yes, Principal Chang¡¯s radio speech gave them an illusion.
The last step was to raise funds as usual. Mr. Situ Meitang took the lead in expressing his stance: "The domestic war of resistance is about to usher in a full-scale counterattack. This means that this is likely to be the last battle against the Japanese invaders. Therefore, I will take the lead in donating 200,000 yuan." U.S. dollars! As for you, you can give it to each of you according to your ability. If you donate more, we will always be grateful if you donate more, and if you donate less, we won¡¯t mind it!"
As soon as the words fell, the members of the Anliang General Hall stood up to express their stance.
"I'll donate $100,000!"
"I will donate $50,000!"
"I will donate $10,000!"
¡°I¡¯ll donate five thousand dollars!¡±
¡¡
"I'll donate fifty cents!"
"I'll donate twenty cents!"
¡°I¡¯ll donate twenty cents too!¡±
"And I, the youngest, will donate fifteen cents!"
Except for a few big bosses, most members of Hongmen are just struggling to survive at the bottom. Their abilities are limited and they can only donate a few dozen cents.
"But the master in charge of registration didn't mind it and registered them one by one.
In the end, although the amount donated by each member of the Anliang General Hall was not large, the advantage was that the Anliang General Hall had more people. In the end, the total amount was more than two million US dollars!
And this is just a donation from New York!
Throughout the United States, throughout the Americas, there are many churches!
All donations added up to a huge amount of money!
Gathering sand to form a tower, that¡¯s what I mean! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
