August 15 is a day that all Chinese people will remember forever. On this day, China won the 14-year War of Resistance Against Japan, Japan officially surrendered, and the Chinese nation, a paradise, stood upright.
At such a special time, when countless revolutionary martyrs used their blood to defend the pride of the Chinese nation, some people knelt down first.
Recently, Zhang Zhehan, who was once a famous artist, was revealed to be attending a friend's wedding at Nogi Shrine.
Immediately after this, Zhang Zhehan also went to other shrines in Japan to check in and take photos, including the most notorious Yasukuni Shrine.
What is the Yasukuni Shrine? Needless to say, every Chinese knows the hatefulness of this place. But Zhang Zhehan not only went there, but also smiled and punched in here to take pictures. This move was simply slapping the martyrs in the face.
In addition, Zhang Zhehan was also suspected of punching in Japan during the National Day. It is ridiculous that the text still says I love China, and there are many other acts of fascination with Japan.
But the most influential thing is taking pictures at the entrance of the Yasukuni Shrine. Because this incident was not only reported by the Japanese media, but also by the Korean media. It is a pity that a well-known Chinese figure with an improper style has lost the face of the Chinese people abroad in this way. Such actions as
also ruined Zhang Zhehan's career. Netizens spontaneously resisted, brands canceled their contracts one after another, and the behavior of flattering Japan eventually tasted bitter fruit.
But ironically, the contributions made by those predecessors to China are now more selfless and fearless under the background of these traffic stars.
In Hong Kong, Fok Yingdong, who was treated as a state funeral, definitely deserves the word great.
Huo Yingdong was born in Hong Kong Wharf in 1923. Although many wealthy businessmen claim to have started from scratch, they are not as good as Stanley Ho , or have been helped like Li Ka-shing .
People who have really become poor and white are really rare, and Fok Yingdong is one of them.
Huo Yingdong, who was born on a fishing boat at the dock, was in a difficult family situation when he was a child. He did not wear shoes before the age of 6, because people living on the water could not afford to wear them, and there was no need to wear them. A sudden typhoon took away both of Huo Yingdong’s A elder brother, his father died of illness.
's already struggling family situation is even worse, and the funeral cannot be done decently. After burying her husband and children hastily, Huo Yingdong's mother Liu San took her other children ashore. Although
avoided the danger of the typhoon, the family had to be crowded in slums at that time. The slum environment is extremely poor. Most people suffer from diseases such as tuberculosis and .
The Huo family lived here for several years but miraculously did not contract a serious illness and survived in good health. Huo Yingdong's mother is very far-sighted, knowing that if she wants to change her destiny, there is only one way to go through reading.
Huo Yingdong also lived up to his mother's expectations and was successfully admitted to the prestigious school at the time, Wong Yan High School. Due to historical reasons, the secondary schools in Hong Kong basically taught in English at that time, so the children of rich families could keep up with the progress and could study in good schools.
Huo Yingdong, with diligence and cleverness, practiced pure British English at school, and was not left behind by others.
In 1941, 18-year-old Huo Yingdong was already preparing for university entrance exams. But the Japanese army fought over, Huangren Middle School was also requisitioned, Huo Yingdong had to drop out of school and work to make a living. But Huo Yingdong's body is not very good, and the small body is not strong, it is really not hard work.
mother is in charge. I asked a dozen relatives to pool the money to open a grocery store and hand it over to Huo Yingdong to manage it. I have to say that the mother who knows his son best, Huo Yingdong does have experienceAfter successfully operating a grocery store, he found an opportunity.
At that time, Japan left a large number of wartime supplies after leaving Hong Kong. They were published in newspapers for bidding. The newspapers are all in English. Most people don’t understand and don’t know this opportunity. Huo Yingdong took 100 yuan and won the bid with 18,000 yuan. Approval of supplies.
Huo Yingdong has no money at all, so he can only find someone to borrow. A boss was very interested when he heard the news, and bought the supplies at a high price of 40,000. Through this batch of sales, Huo Yingdong realized the freedom of wealth at that time.
Later, Huo Yingdong also often wandered the auction floor and made profits by reselling materials. Huo’s family was originally a family on the water. At that time, Huo Yingdong’s mother was in the freight business by herself.
When the war broke out that year, Britain and the United States imposed an embargo on China, and Japan and Southeast Asia also blocked ships carrying supplies to China. There is only a gap between Hong Kong and Macau. After Hong Kong implements a total embargo, smuggling ships will be shot and pursued.
Huo Yingdong, with the "eyeliner" of the British anti-smuggling ship, and the "siege" of the United States and Japan at sea, transported important materials such as medicines and black iron sheets to the Chinese mainland. These military supplies are being transported under the surveillance of the authorities, and the danger can be imagined. In order to get rid of tracking,
has to bypass the British navy ships in the middle of the night every day, and constantly change locations to avoid detection. Although he was not arrested, the British Hong Kong government learned of Fok Yingdong's behavior and imposed a series of suppressions on Fok Yingdong.
Huo Yingdong is a born businessman. After the war, Huo Yingdong withdrew from shipping and founded Huo Xingyetang Real Estate Co., Ltd. While buying a building to preserve wealth, while seeking development in the real estate industry.
Fok Ying-tung pioneered the uncompleted sale system in the past. When people buy real estate with a down payment, the remaining money can be paid back slowly. This innovation has driven the development of Hong Kong's real estate industry.
However, during the pre-sale of Fok Yingdong’s Toad Palace Building, Hong Kong’s tallest building, news came out, saying that Fok Yingdong smuggled goods and sold junhu during the war and might be deported at any time. Upon hearing that Fok Yingdong might be driven out of Hong Kong at any time, the people who bought the house came to refund.
Fok Yingdong explained but not many people believed that on the one hand, the British Hong Kong government suppressed it, and the jealousy of other real estate developers spread the rumors that Fok Yingdong had never smuggled arms, but not many people believed that at the time, Fok Yingdong also gradually faded out of the Hong Kong business community.
Fok Yingdong was cautiously seeking a way out in Hong Kong, and secretly made a decision to head north. After establishing ties with the mainland, Fok Yingdong began to invest heavily in Guangdong, mainly building hotels.
One of the most famous is Guangzhou's White Swan Hotel . It was the 1980s when Guangdong's economy had not yet developed. In fact, there was no need for such an advanced hotel.
But Huo Yingdong feels that the purpose of building a hotel is to let the outside world know that China is different now. Sooner or later, the high-end hotel built will be used. At that time, Huo Yingdong will not only build, but also open to visit, let everyone come to see this hotel.
So on the day the White Swan opened in 1983, Guangzhou citizens flocked to the White Swan to visit. They spent 400 rolls of toilet paper a day and collected a basket of squeezed slippers. Before the opening, the person in charge was worried about the damage and wanted to prevent Huo Yingdong from opening the tour, but Huo Yingdong waved his hand and said, "If it breaks, I will pay."
This hotel also represents Fok Yingdong's confidence in the development of the mainland.
There was also a thorny problem at the time, that is, China's sports were not recognized internationally. It was also the second year that Fok Yingdong was tossed in different international competitions to help China obtain the recognition of the International Sports Federation. The White Swan Hotel was built in 1984 in the second year.
China returned to the first game of the International Olympic Committee. Huo Yingdong took his family to the United States to watch the game. The rise of the five-star red flag became one of Huo Yingdong's most memorable moments.
This year Huo Yingdong was invited to Tiananmen participated in the 35th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China and the National Day celebrations. When interviewed by reporters, I couldn’t help crying. The good times didn't last long. Since then, Fok Yingdong was diagnosed with cancer, so she could only retreat behind the scenes and let her eldest son Fok Zhenting take charge of the family business.
But in order for Beijing to successfully bid for the Olympics, Huo Yingdong personally went to talk with IOC Chairman Samaranch in private to fight for opportunities for China to bid for the Olympics. However, the failure of the 2000 Olympic bid also made Huo Yingdong miss the last chance to see China hosting the Olympics. .
Huo Yingdong passed away in Beijing in 2006, ending his great legendary life. Looking back at Fok Yingdong's contribution, what the current traffic star has done is really chilling. Forgetting historical ignorance is not an excuse, but to remain in awe, and don't forget that you are a Chinese.
