His diligence, wisdom and integrity were appreciated by Feng, and he was promoted to pistol company commander and soon to battalion commander. When foreigners discriminated against China people, Ji Hongchang hung the sign "I'm from China" on his chest. He was really a patriotic star.
1931September 2 1 day, General Ji Hongchang, who was determined to resist Japan, was forced to step down by Chiang Kai-shek and went abroad to "inspect the industry". When the ship arrived in the United States, Ji Hongchang was stimulated by one emergency after another. For example, the first-class hotels there don't accept China people, but they worship Japanese people.
Once, Ji Hongchang wanted to send clothes to China, but the post office staff actually said that there was no China in the world. Ji Hongchang was so angry that he was about to have a fit. The accompanying embassy counselor advised: "Why didn't you say you were Japanese? As long as you say you are Japanese, you can be treated with courtesy. " Ji Hongchang immediately angered: "You think China people are humiliated, but I think China people are glorious!"
In order to protest against imperialism's discrimination against the people of China and safeguard national dignity, he found a wooden sign and carefully wrote on it in English: "I'm from China!"
In foreign countries, Ji Hongchang exposed various crimes of Japanese aggression against China with facts through interviews with reporters, and rebuked Britain for conniving at Japanese aggression against China and Chiang Kai-shek's ugly act of compromising with Japan.
When Ji Hongchang was in Germany, he repeatedly asked to visit the Soviet Union, but was made difficult by the embassy of Chiang Kai-shek's reactionary government and refused to issue a visa.

3. The story of Sun Yat-sen
Sun Yat-sen loved reading all his life. When he was studying in England, one day, several foreign students from China went to see him together and found that his life was too hard to eat. Before leaving, these international students pooled 40 pounds and gave them to Sun Yat-sen to subsidize their living. Three days later, these international students went to see Sun Yat-sen again.
They knocked on the door of Sun Yat-sen's dormitory for a long time, but no one answered. "Well, Mr Probably not. Come again next time. " A girl said. "Wait a minute, I'll knock." A young man who is not tall or short said. He knocked hard for a while before Sun Yat-sen opened the door.
Sun Yat-sen said shyly, "Sorry, I was reading, but I didn't hear you knocking at the door. Please come in! " They walked into Sun Yat-sen's dormitory and found the table full of new books. Let's calculate that it will cost about 30 pounds to buy these books. They felt very strange and asked Sun Yat-sen, "You don't even have enough money to eat, and you still have money to buy books?"
"I bought this with the money you gave me, and there is still 10 left!" "You should buy more delicious food and don't spoil your health." Sun Yat-sen said with a smile, "I think buying books is more important than buying vegetables."
4. Lu Xun's punctuation fee
As we all know, punctuation plays an important role in the article, although it is ugly. But in those days, the publishing industry paid little attention to punctuation marks, and when paying the manuscript fee, it was often deducted from the number of words, and the manuscript fee was not given.
On one occasion, Lu Xun was asked to write for a publishing house. Because he discovered in advance that the publishing house didn't pay for punctuation marks, there were no punctuation marks in his manuscript.
After reading the manuscript, the editor wrote back and asked Lu Xun to add punctuation marks on the grounds that it was difficult to break sentences. Lu Xun replied: "it is necessary for the author to add punctuation marks to separate paragraphs and chapters, so punctuation marks are still essential." In this case, punctuation marks have to be counted. " The publishing house had no choice but to adopt Lu Xun's opinion, and punctuation marks were also converted into words to pay the manuscript fee. Ha ha!
