Chapter 151 Save a hair!(1/2)
Chen Qiang's paper appeared in the new issue of "Siene" magazine.
Ordinary people don’t know how to read scientific journals like “Siene”. The contents on them are so profound that they can’t understand them even if they buy them.
However, for scientists, "Siene" is a necessary reading material. The way of information dissemination in this era is not smooth, and reading high-end scientific journals is the main way for scientists to obtain information.
Chen Qiang's discourse on "sub-health" has also entered the field of scientists with the magazine "Siene".
Before this, many American scientists also noticed reports on "sub-health" in newspapers, but most people didn't care. Many people even thought that it was just a piece of news that newspapers made a sensational piece of news in order to boost sales.
People who do scientific research are more rational and they will not easily believe some information of unknown origin.
But when the concept of "sub-health" appears in the journal "Siene", the situation is completely different. This is a serious scientific journal. What's more, in Chen Qiang's paper, there is a very clear and systematic discussion on "sub-health", which obviously makes "sub-health" a scientific research topic in the true sense.
As the proposer of the concept of "sub-health", Chen Qiang naturally entered the academic field.
Chen Qiang was able to publish a paper in the magazine "Siene" and put forward a new topic. Although it does not prove that the views described by Chen Qiang must be correct, it at least means that Chen Qiang has been recognized by the academic community.
Chen Qiang was also the stepping stone to give a speech at a top university.
...
Louis Williams returned from North Carolina and he had just helped Chen Qiang finalize the speech at Duke University.
Duke University is the best university in the Southeast United States. It has long been ranked among the top ten in the United States and the top twenty in the world in various rankings. It is definitely a top university.
Moreover, Duke University is very rich, especially in the 1930s, Duke University's funds were more abundant than those of prestigious universities such as Harvard and Yale.
The reason why Duke University is rich is mainly due to a donation of up to 40 million US dollars in 1924 by Mr. James Duke. That was the 40 million US dollars in 1924, which is equivalent to billions in later generations. This is why the name "Duke University" was created.
Duke University began to expand and build various buildings with this huge sum of $40 million, but it was not so easy to spend $40 million. Duke University's construction lasted for ten years from 1925 to 1935.
Now is when Duke University has money and nowhere to spend it. In Chen Qiang's eyes, Duke University is a rich rich man. Of course, he has to talk more and make a fortune.
I heard Louis Williams say: "Duke University is very interested in the concept of 'sub-health' that you proposed. They also want you to give a speech, but they have a requirement. I hope you can communicate with Duke University's track and field team in sports during the speech."
Duke University is also a famous sports school. In the future, people are familiar with Duke University's basketball, which has trained many well-known NBA stars, and they are known as the No. 1 basketball school in NCAA. In fact, in addition to basketball, Duke University also has very strong strength in other sports.
Duke University's rugby team was as bad as Chinese football after entering the 21st century, but in the 1930s and 1940s, Duke University's rugby was very brilliant and held the Rose Bowl finals, which was the first of the four major bowls of the NCAA Rugby League.
In 1932, the NBA was not established, so Duke University's sports culture was not mainly basketball. Track and field and baseball dominated Duke University. There are many excellent track and field athletes at Duke University, so Duke University's track and field team hopes to communicate with Chen Qiang, the "hardware king" of the Olympics.
Chen Qiang thought about it and agreed: "No problem, send a telegram to Duke University and tell them that I am willing to communicate with the Duke University track and field team, and I can also teach them the technical tips of long jump and stand-up flights. Of course, my technical guidance is charged."
It is natural to teach others new technologies and charge a little fee. In the future, the legendary center Aurajuwon of the NBA will open training camps every year, and they will also charge fees every year. It will cost tens of thousands of dollars to learn a dream step, and it will only be a lesson or not.
Chen Qiang is willing to teach Americans the skills of standing up and taking the air, which makes him his sense.
Before Chen Qiang performed a three-and-a-half-step walk-in airflow, the stand-in airflow has always been hailed as the world's most advanced long jump airflow technology.
In theory, since Chen Qiang has performed a three-and-a-half-step vanishing technique, this technology should be well known to many people. However, when Chen Qiang came to the eastern United States, he discovered that those who are engaged in track and field still believe that the stand-up vanishing technique is the most advanced vanishing technique in the world. No one knew Chen Qiang’s three-and-a-half-step vanishing technique.
Chen Qiang still overestimated the speed of information dissemination in this era.
Tadaihei of the Southern Takahei used a stand-up voyage in 1931. A year later, athletes from other countries had never seen a stand-up voyage in the Los Angeles Olympics except the Japanese. So when Chen Qiang used a stand-up voyage, the Japanese team was surprised.
This is the speed of information dissemination in this era. If it were to be placed in later generations, shoot a video of a competition and through the Internet, the whole world can know what a stand-up voyage looks like in minutes. In the 1930s, a stand-up voyage appeared for a year, and athletes from other countries have not seen it.
Another point is that except for professional coaches and athletes, other spectators do not understand the difference between two- and a half-step and three- and a half-step and a half-step and a half-step. They only think that Chen Qiang jumps far away, and only sees that Chen Qiang uses ale to move in, but they do not know that Chen Qiang has made more technological innovations.
As for professional coaches and athletes who know how to be aware of, there are too few people. There are only 12 players participating in the long jump competition in the Los Angeles Olympics. In addition, there are less than 30 people. Although these 30 people can understand the three and a half steps and a half steps and a half steps and a half steps and a half steps and a half steps and a half steps and a half steps are expected to promote the three and a half steps and a half steps and a half steps. I don’t know if I have to wait until the Year of the Monkey.
So after Chen Qiang came to the Central and Eastern United States, he found that the American athletes here did not know the three and a half steps and a half steps to fly. They still thought that the stand-up evacuation was the most advanced air-evacuation technology of this era. Moreover, long jumpers in the Central and Eastern United States have almost never seen the stand-up evacuation.
After Chen Qiang discovered this, he decided to sell the stand-up voyage for money. As long as those track and field teams in college are willing to pay, he can teach the skills of stand-up voyage.
For Chen Qiang, standing up and taking a flight is a backward technology. He does not need to hold back and not let go of it. With the development of long jump, standing up and taking a flight will gradually become popular. Instead of like that, Chen Qiang makes a profit first.
Now Chen Qiang teaches Americans the skills of standing up and taking flight to the United States, which feels like the West sold out eliminated industrial equipment to China in the 1980s and 1990s. He sorted out his useless rags and then sold them at a high price, and the other party even took them as treasures.
I have to say that in any era and any field, the backward side will always be the one who suffers losses!
Americans learn to stand up and leap will make American athletes' long jumping level more powerful, but Chen Qiang is not worried about this. Because the biggest victim of the stand up and leap promotion is Japanese track and field athletes.
The Japanese track and field team has always regarded the stand-up stunt as a skill, which is also a way for Japan to lead the world by long jump. American athletes' physical fitness is much better than Japanese athletes. If American athletes master the same skills, the Japanese will definitely not be the opponent of Americans, and Japan will not be able to dominate the world in long jump events in the future.
There is a saying that teaches the apprentice to starve the master to death. The strength of the opponent will naturally increase the difficulty of Chen Qiang participating in the competition. However, as a Chinese athlete, Chen Qiang does not have many opportunities to participate in international competitions, and Chen Qiang also knows that the Olympics will be held for another session and World War II will come, and two consecutive Olympics will be suspended. When the time difference between the Olympics is held again in 1948, Chen Qiang may have retired.
Teaching new technologies can make a big profit and create trouble for the Japanese team. Why not do this kind of killing two birds with one stone?
...
Japan Sports Association.
Kenjiro Nakano took a telegram and found President Kishi Kishi.
"President, our people did not find Chen Qiang in the telegram from Los Angeles." Kenjiro Nakano said.
"Not found? Could it be that he has returned to China? Could it be that he has died in a foreign land?" An Qingyi said with some guilt.
"Chen Qiang should still be in the United States. Although our representative in Los Angeles did not find Chen Qiang himself, he found out about his whereabouts. It is said that Chen Qiang once performed in a circus and many people have seen him. According to what we know, Chen Qiang's health should be OK." Kenjiro Nakano answered.
"Circus performance? Chen Qiang is an Olympic champion after all, has he actually fallen to perform in a circus!" An Qing sighed, and he continued to ask, "Can you still find that circus?"
"The circus has left Los Angeles, and our people are investigating the whereabouts of the circus. In addition, our people are also investigating Chinatown in Los Angeles. According to the Chinese narrative of Chinatown, Chen Qiang went to a big city in the eastern United States. As for where to go, our people have not found out." Kenjiro Nakano continued.
"A big city in the eastern United States? That must be New York!" An Qingyi thought for a while and said, "Let our office in New York try to investigate whether Chen Qiang is in New York now. If Chen Qiang is really in New York, try to buy him as much as possible and make him use it for the empire!"
...
Japanese investigators in Los Angeles only found out that Chen Qiang performed in the circus, but did not find out that Chen Qiang was giving a speech in college.
When Chen Qiang performed at Lingling Circus, the circus was also a popular promotion as an attractive gimmick. Anyone who has watched Lingling Circus advertisements in Los Angeles knows that "the world's number one athlete" Chen Qiang once performed at Lingling Circus. So Japanese investigators can easily learn about this news.
However, when giving speeches in college, no one specializes in advertising. Only teachers and students in college know that this knowledge is too small. Even if Japanese investigators are idle, they will not be able to go to the university in Los Angeles to find Chen Qiang.
Before leaving Los Angeles, Chen Qiang said goodbye to the Chinese group in Los Angeles and told them that they would go to cities in the eastern United States, so Japanese investigators got the news from the Chinese population in Los Angeles.
An Qingyi also judged from this information that Chen Qiang may have gone to New York.
...
After a long walk in the eastern part of the United States, Chen Qiang finally came to New York.
The Great Depression in the United States was first triggered in New York. On October 29, 1929, the stock market in New York City plummeted, reaching its lowest point in history, which was also the beginning of the largest economic crisis in history.
Chen Qiang originally thought that New York would be as depressed as Chicago, but when he arrived in New York, he realized that New York was much better than Chicago, and at least the market seemed very prosperous. Although there were many unemployed and homeless people, the majority of pedestrians were dressed in decent clothes. The roads in New York were bustling with traffic, and you could see many gorgeously dressed ladies sitting in the car.
Walking on the road, Chen Qiang saw many facilities under construction, busy workers shuttled through them, and the sound of various building materials colliding endlessly.
The whole of New York seems to have begun to recover from the Great Depression.
Chen Qiang arrived at the Plaza Hotel on 59th Street, New York and completed the entry procedures.
Plaza Hotel is a landmark in New York, opposite it is New York's Central Park. Since the hotel opened, it has always been a place where celebrities want to stay. Kings, presidents, ambassadors, film and television stars, sports stars, business celebrities and other travelers from all over the world have become guests of Plaza Hotel. The Plaza Hotel of the future is no longer a simple hotel in the hearts of New Yorkers, but a symbol of witnessing the development and historical changes of New York.
Many Chinese people may not know about Plaza Hotel, but they must have heard of the Plaza Agreement. This agreement that made Japan an ATM in the United States was signed at Plaza Hotel.
As the most luxurious landmark hotel in New York, the Plaza Hotel charges a high fee. Chen Qiang originally did not plan to stay in such a luxurious hotel, but considering that he came to New York to give a speech to make money, in order to support the storefront, Chen Qiang had to choose Plaza Hotel.
Celebrities all need packaging. If Chen Qiang comes to New York and doesn’t live in the Plaza Hotel, it wouldn’t be very unmarked and not as a celebrity at all.
If you want to make money by speaking, what you need most is style and style. Why can those retired American presidents make millions a year by speaking? It’s not that the content they say is meaningful, but that their style is placed there. For example, those micro-businesses are willing to spend 200,000 to shake hands with the resigned president, and they buy this style.
Now, in order to improve his personality, Chen Qiang can only spend a lot of money to stay in the luxurious Plaza Hotel.
What Chen Qiang didn't expect was that someone visited him the next day after he checked in the Plaza Hotel.
...
A young Chinese in his early twenties stood in front of Chen Qiang. He spoke in a Cantonese Mandarin language: "Mr. Chen, our Anliangtang represents Chinese in New York, welcome you to New York."
"An Liangtang? You are from Hongmen!" Chen Qiang nodded suddenly.
Hongmen has many names outside the sea, such as Tiandihui, Zhigongtang, Yixinghui, Honggang, etc. Among them, the most powerful group under the Hongmen in the United States was Anliangtang. At that time, Anliangtang was spread across 31 cities across the United States, with more than 20,000 members.
Anliangtang’s main hall is located in New York. When I first arrived in Los Angeles, there were people from Anliangtang among the Chinese group that welcomed Chen Qiang. So when the other party mentioned the name "Anliangtang", Chen Qiang immediately knew the other party’s identity.
Chen Qiang did not ask how the other party found him. A Chinese settled in New York's most famous Plaza Hotel. This was a very strange thing. With An Liangtang's power in New York, it was impossible for him to receive the news.
The young man continued, "Mr. Situ of our Anliangtang has already set up a banquet and is waiting for Mr. Chen to arrive."
Chen Qiang knew this Mr. Situ, who was a leader among overseas Chinese. He once supported Mr. Zhongshan's revolutionary activities and established the Overseas Chinese Anti-Japanese and National Fundraising Association during the War of Resistance Against Japan and made great contributions to the nation's war of resistance.
So Chen Qiang nodded without hesitation: "Thank you very much for your kindness, I will definitely go there."
...
At the banquet, there were almost all famous people from the Chinese group in New York to welcome Chen Qiang.
"Young man, good guys, heroes are young! We will bring glory to the country at the Olympics! China needs a young man like you!" Mr. Situ patted Chen Qiang's shoulder and praised.
"Mr. Situ praised me. I am just doing what an athlete should do." Chen Qiang replied.
"But other athletes can't do what you do!" Mr. Situ looked at Chen Qiang happily, and then he asked, "By the way, how long do you plan to stay in New York this time? If you stay for a long time, you might as well move out of that square hotel. Although the foreign restaurant is famous, it is expensive and uncomfortable to live in. If you want, move to our Anliangtang. We have ready-made rooms here, and the conditions are not worse than those of foreign restaurants. Moreover, our chefs are also from China. If you live in our Anliangtang, you can eat the hometown dishes made by our chef every day, which is much better than that of Western food every day!"
"Mr. Situ, I'm really reluctant to stay in the Plaza Hotel, but I really have no choice." Chen Qiang told Mr. Situ about his speech at various universities in the United States.
"You kid, you are very jealous and know how to stay in a square hotel to support the storefront! But next time, if you don't have the travel fee to return to China, come to our Anliangtang directly and don't work so hard anymore. We Anliangtang can still afford a ticket to return to China!" Mr. Situ said.
Chen Qiang hurriedly explained: "Mr. Situ, actually making money back to China is just the secondary purpose of my speech. I mainly want to continue to give speeches at various universities, spread our influence in China, and let Americans understand China more."
Mr. Situ nodded: "What you say makes sense. You are the first to give a tour speech in famous universities in the United States. Let's do this. Let me introduce someone to you. In New York, if you meet this person, you will definitely help you support your storefront."
"Then I thank Mr. Situ first." Chen Qiang thanked him, and then asked, "I don't know who the person you are talking about is."
