There is a rule in the game that the winner takes all, and as long as you win, you can take the money with you. But this is only in the gambling game, under the gambling game, if you do not have the strength, the winning money will not only be snatched away by the gambling boss, but even beaten, because the essence of this society is the weak and the strong!
Recently revisited the movie "My 1919", in addition to lamenting Chen Daoming's acting skills, the most profound experience is that the above mentioned 4 words of the weak and the strong.
Although Gu Weijun, a Chinese diplomat played by Chen Daoming, made a generous statement at the Paris Peace Conference, using a small pocket watch to rebuke the Japanese representative, which attracted a round of praise from the heads of state of various countries, the personal charm of the Japanese representatives is self-evident in comparison. However, in the end, when China, as the victorious power, wanted to take back the plunder of Qingdao before the defeated Germany, it was rejected by Japan, and in the war, the powers that vowed to support China were silent at the peace conference.
There is a scene in the movie, which is very impressive, not the generous statement of Gu Weijun, played by Chen Daoming, at the peace conference, but the French president in the movie saying: Germany is like that juicy orange, and he will blow up this orange on behalf of France.
For Europe after the end of world war I, France was the victorious power, Germany was the defeated country, and Germany was indeed like that sapy orange. But in Asia after the end of World War I, Japan was the victorious power, and China was also a victorious country, so why did China become that juiced orange?
Leaving this issue aside, there is a fact that is even more difficult to accept. As the victorious power of World War I, Japan only sent 20,000 troops, and it did not go to the European battlefield, but to Shandong, China at that time, to participate in the invasion of Qingdao. And China, also the victorious power, sent nearly 140,000 laborers to the entire European battlefield, these dispatched laborers served in the front line of the battlefield, digging trenches, building barbed wire, of which at least 6,000 laborers, because of disease and enemy attacks, died in this foreign country and could not return to China.
Therefore, China at that time had a huge impact on the course of the First World War, but China was still reduced to the orange of the juice.
Why? Many people have heard such a story, Ji Hongchang in the United States to investigate, because of the burly, so often will be regarded as Japanese, in order to maintain national dignity, Ji Hongchang found a wooden sign, on which carefully wrote "I'm a Chinese", and hung it on his chest, walking on the streets of the United States.
The focus of the story is, of course, Ji Hongchang's patriotic behavior, and of course, it also reflects the question of why these foreigners think that the burly-looking Asians are Japanese. Because Japan's national strength was far stronger, China at that time.
When the Eight-Power Alliance invaded China, 1,000 foreign troops could chase tens of thousands of Qing government braided troops all over the streets.
When there was a civil war in Syria a few years ago, the back of the Syrian diplomat, the disappointed back, is still impressive.
Also a few years ago, when the dispute between Japan and Russia broke out over the four northern islands, in the face of frequent protests by Japanese diplomats in the world, what Russia did was to send strategic bombers to fly around Japanese airspace, and the Russian Foreign Ministry did not seem to have any protests. After such an act, a sentence appeared on the Internet, diplomatic protests thousands of times, it is better for strategic bombers to fly out and over again.
I believe that so many examples can answer why China, the victorious country in World War I, has become an orange that is about to be squeezed dry.
In the game you can win money, but in the game you want to take the money away, you only need real strength.
