Chapter 332: The Great Case Through the Ages
This debate is actually meaningless, it is just a verbal dispute.
Lin Zixuan took out the Western media's reports on Gorky, and they would think that this was a false accusation by the Western media of Gorky.
Even if Lin Zixuan finds Soviet scholars to prove that Gorky has indeed written an article attacking the October Revolution, it will not be used as evidence. Perhaps it is said that it was the instructor found by Lin Zixuan.
Moreover, the newspapers and households that Gorky wrote articles in the Soviet Union have long been banned and cannot be found at all.
Unless the Gorky people come forward to admit that he had written the inappropriate idea, those people will believe it, and of course they may also say that Gorky is pretending to be.
Anyway, as long as you want to refute, you can always find countless reasons, so this is a meaningless debate.
However, what Lin Zixuan did not expect was that the debate in China had an impact on the Soviet Union.
The Soviet Union invested a lot in China, and it invested in the Guangzhou National Government and supported Feng Yuxiang. Naturally, it was very concerned about the situation in China.
The Soviets noticed the debates about Gorky in the Chinese intellectual circle and reported them to the country.
Stalin felt that Gorky could not be allowed to stay abroad. If Gorky said anything randomly, it would cause great damage to the Soviet Union's cause in China and even had a serious impact on the international community.
So he sent people to contact Gorky, hoping to get Gorky to the Soviet Union and take control.
Lin Zixuan's behavior accidentally added the time when Gorky returned to the Soviet Union.
In July, Miss Song’s third lady returned from Guangzhou and brought a lot of gifts. It can be seen that she lived a very good life in Guangzhou.
Although no details were disclosed, the investigation of Mr. Jiang should have ended.
The answer is self-evident. It can be seen from her face that at least the two of them should have had a tacit understanding.
This year, Mr. Jiang was 40 years old and had his first wife, two sons and two concubines at home.
Miss Song is less than 30 years old. She has not yet been married and has returned from studying in the United States and is proficient in several languages.
Marriage is never a matter of two people, but a matter of two families, or even multiple families.
Mr. Jiang's foundation is not stable and he needs to inherit the political legacy left by Sun Zhongshan. Everyone knows the relationship between the Song family and Sun Zhongshan, and the Song family also needs Mr. Jiang to consolidate his position.
This is a win-win situation for cooperation.
As long as the third lady of the Song family agrees, Mr. Jiang has no reason to disagree. The premise is that Mr. Jiang and his original wife divorce and give up his concubine.
Because Mr. Jiang is from Fenghua, Zhejiang, the person who found the divorce lawsuit was Xu Zhigui, the county magistrate of Fenghua County, Zhejiang.
One day, Xu Zhigui's classmate came to see him, and he took out a document from the drawer and showed it to the classmate mysteriously.
When the classmate saw that it was the divorce agreement between Mr. Jiang and his original wife.
Xu Zhigui joked: "I have the honor of being in my life to handle this great case forever."
The classmate was also interesting and continued: "If Master Gui criticized the word "not allowed" in this article, he would definitely be famous throughout the ages."
This is just a private joke between the two, and Seo Zhigui is not ignorant.
Mr. Jiang published a divorce revelation in his declaration: "Mao's wife has long been divorced; Yao and Chen Ershi have no contract."
Lin Zixuan knew that the third lady of the Song family had never been willing to be mediocre, and this should be the best choice.
On July 9, 1926, Mr. Jiang took office as commander-in-chief of the National Revolutionary Army and swore to the Northern Expedition.
This unveiled this war to unify China.
At this time, Wu Peifu's troops occupied the two lakes and along the route of Jinghan Road in Henan, with a force of 200,000.
Sun Chuanfang's troops were composed of warlords in Fujian, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Anhui and Jiangxi. They were known as the "Five-province coalition forces" and had a force of about 200,000.
The Fengtian warlord Zhang Zuolin led the Beiping government, entrenched in Beijing, Tianjin, Zhili, Rehe and the northeastern provinces, with a force of about 400,000.
Zhang Zongchang, who is in Shandong, also has more than 100,000 troops.
The total strength of the Beiyang warlords was nearly one million. The National Revolutionary Army of the Guangzhou National Government only had more than one hundred thousand troops.
It can be said that there is a huge gap in strength. The advantage of the National Revolutionary Army is that these warlords are not united and the people's desire for national unity.
Lin Zixuan asked about Song Ziwen's situation.
I learned that Song Ziwen was busy because of the Northern Expedition and needed to raise funds and would not come to Shanghai in the short term.
He thought it would be better to talk to Song Ziwen in person about cheating on the Americans, so he temporarily let go of this matter and wait until the situation in the Northern Expedition stabilized.
At this time, a package was sent from the UK, which contained the membership documents of the International Pen Association.
Lin Zixuan officially became a member of the International Pen Association, with Tagore from India and Gorky from the Soviet Union both members of the Pen Association.
With this identity, he was able to establish the China Pen Club Center in the country, which is equivalent to the branch of the International Pen Club.
With a branch, you can establish contact and communicate with famous writers from all over the world through the branch.
According to the charter of the International Pradesh Association, a branch must have at least 20 or more writers who have achieved certain achievements and are "representative in a particular aspect of literary creation."
As long as you recognize the spirit stipulated in the "International Pen Council Charter" and assume the obligations stipulated by it, a "center", namely, a branch can be established.
This branch also needs to apply to the International Pen Association. As long as the majority of votes pass, it can become a branch of the International Pen Association.
During the Republic of China period, there were too many Chinese writers, and a group of outstanding writers emerged in a short period of time. It can be said that it was the golden age of literature, but for various reasons, it was not known to the outside world.
It is mainly due to the issue of work translation and the reasons why countries in the Far East are not valued.
The United States established the Pen Club Center in 1922, headquartered in New York.
The main task of the Pen Club Center is to ensure the creative freedom and rights of members; hold seminars and reading meetings to give members the opportunity to exchange experiences; formulate creation, translation, and publishing plans; and set up various bonuses and funds.
This is not much different from what Lin Zixuan has been doing, but the center of the pen club is more standardized.
It can spread Chinese literature, introduce the latest foreign literary trends, set up Chinese literary awards, etc.
He wrote a letter to a Chinese writer he thought was qualified, and he had to make up 20 people before talking about it.
Including Cai Yuanqi, Hu Shi, Lu Xun, Xu Zhimo and others.
Unexpectedly, this incident spreads. Many literati think this is a good opportunity to align with the international literary world. As long as you join this pen club, you can communicate with international famous writers.
For a time, the establishment of the China Pen Club Center caused a lot of controversy in the Chinese literary circle.
Many people wrote to Lin Zixuan to join.
However, there are strict requirements to become a member of the Pen Association. Writers must at least have influential and representative works. They either say that they are a writer or a writer. They must also be recognized by the International Pen Association. Not everyone can join.
Some people also think that Lin Zixuan is a sensationalist, and the International Pen Club is a game played by Westerners, and Chinese writers have no status even if they go there.
Lin Zixuan directly ignored such a person and did not even have the courage to try. He was not qualified to judge.
In the letter sent by Lin Zixuan, some agreed, and some refused.
This is a very normal phenomenon. Since Lin Zixuan began to criticize the Soviet Union, he has been classified into a different camp, and writers from another camp will naturally not accept his invitation. (To be continued.)
