There are many varieties of breakfast in Nanjing. Chen Qiang ate it for several days, but it still has different every day.

After breakfast, Chen Qiang came to the textbook editor's office.

Across a distance, a quarrel was heard coming from the textbook editor's office.

"Old Wu, you don't care about your subordinates. After he published this article, our efforts were wasted for most of our month!" Professor Yuan Dunli's voice sounded.

"How can I control him? Don't you know what Cheng Dengke is from? Yes, although he is a physical education professor at our Central University, he is also a physical education instructor in the officer training class of the Central Army Officer School! And I heard that he is going to be the executive director of the Sports Committee, and he will still be our boss at that time!" Professor Wu Yunrui's voice sounded.

Yuan Dunli said dissatisfiedly: "If such people go to the Sports Committee to be the executive director, then we should not expect to popularize sports in China to the public, and we will all be militarized!"

Chen Qiang quietly walked into the door and asked another professor: "What's going on? Why did Professor Wu and Professor Yuan quarrel?"

"It's because the outline of the sports textbooks we submitted was rejected by the officials above!" the professor said.

"Then Professor Yuan should also confront the officials above. Why are he angry at Professor Wu?" Chen Qiang continued.

"It's not because of an article." The man said, secretly stuffing a magazine into Chen Qiang's hands, and then said: "The officials above think this article is very good. We need to refer to this article to re-form the outline of the physical education textbook. The person who wrote the article was a physical education professor at Central University, which was under the jurisdiction of Professor Wu. Professor Yuan was angry about this and felt that it was Professor Wu's subordinates who dragged us down!"

Chen Qiang had long expected that the Ministry of Education would never approve the outline of the sports textbook because it was too expensive and too unrealistic. However, what Chen Qiang did not expect was that there were other reasons.

"What kind of article is it that can be noticed by those officials?" Chen Qiang asked.

"I folded a corner on that page, you can read it yourself." The man said.

Chen Qiang looked down and found that this was a magazine called "Chinese Youth". He opened the page with a corner and saw an article titled "National Defense and Youth Sports". The author of the article was Cheng Dengke.

"Oh, it turned out to be an article written by Mr. Cheng." Chen Qiang smiled slightly.

Chen Qiang not only heard of Cheng Dengke, but also read his works.

Cheng Dengke studied in Germany in his early years. He witnessed the militarization of sports in Germany with his own eyes. Therefore, after returning to China, he also became an advocate for the militarization of sports in China.

The article "National Defense and Youth Sports" written by Cheng Dengke first explains the relationship between youth sports training and military and national defense. It starts with the relationship between sports training and military and national defense and the relationship between youth and national defense and nations. Most of the views are war-oriented, and the views on youth sports are also mainly military.

Cheng Dengke believed that "my country's sports are inherently poor, and it is urgent to develop after all." Therefore, he advocated sports reform, "militarization of sports, combined with military politics, and the country's proficiency will be transformed into a strong general public and leading the young people."

After all, Cheng Dengke returned from studying in Germany, and his thoughts were also baptized by German militarized sports. Therefore, the sports reform he hoped was to militarize sports and military sports like Germany, so that sports training can serve the military.

Moreover, in addition to being a professor of physical education at Central University, Cheng Dengke was also a sports instructor in the officer training class of the Central Army Officer School. Even if he had a military position, it was normal for him to advocate sports for military service.

However, Cheng Dengke's proposal is very different from Wu Yunrui and Yuan Dunli.

Professor Wu Yunrui advocated practical sportsism. After the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japan in the future, China's primary goal was to drive away the invaders. At that time, Wu Yunrui also believed that sports was the basis of military affairs and did not oppose the militarization of sports. However, Wu Yunrui also emphasized that sports' training in spirit, physique and basic skills is irreplaceable by military training.

Professor Yuan Dunli is more like a pure educator. He believes that sports and education are inseparable, so sports should be combined with education, rather than military. The promotion of sports should also start with education.

In fact, it can be guessed from their background in studying abroad that their opinions on the development of Chinese sports are definitely different.

Wu Yunrui and Yuan Dunli both returned from studying in the United States. They were influenced by American sports culture. The outline of the sports textbooks they had made was more like copying the American sports development model.

Cheng Dengke returned from studying in Germany. He was influenced by the German military-style ideology. His proposition was naturally to learn the development model of German sports.

However, in the eyes of Nanjing senior executives, Cheng Dengke's proposal to militarize sports is naturally much stronger than the American sports development model.

The bosses in Nanjing are busy fighting a civil war now, and things that can serve the military at this time are worth developing. As for the American strategy, they are not only spending money and time, but also taking slow results. The bosses in Nanjing are naturally not interested.

In addition, Japan adopted this development model of sports militarization, and it was more militarized than Germany. However, Japan became a great power with this. With the example of Japan, sports militarization has become a direction for a strong country in the eyes of many people.

Wu Yunrui and Yuan Dunli quarreled for a long time, but there was no result. It was like the customer was not satisfied with the product, and no matter how fierce the programmer was, he could not help.

The officials above clearly disliked the outline of the sports textbooks they proposed, and also clearly stated that they wanted a military sports outline, which made the professors in the textbook editorial office feel resistant.

"Since the Ministry of Education has clear requirements, we might as well write a re-write of the outline in accordance with the requirements of the Ministry of Education!" Chen Qiang advised.

"Rewrite? What to write? Are sports people treated as military training? Will they change the high jump and long jump in the future to shooting? Throwing shot put and throwing discus, and throwing grenades? Then what do you need to do with physical education? All students will be taken to join the army!" Yuan Dunli was the first to object.

"Yes, we have been doing sports for most of our lives, but we have never carried a gun. I can't figure it out if we asked me to create a militarized outline for sports!" another professor said.

"Forget it, whoever wants to write will write, I won't write such a textbook outline!" A professor stood up and left with his hands, as if he was quitting his job!

I have to say that university professors in the Republic of China were all very awesome. They said they would give up the job and said they would stop doing it. When they didn’t want to do it, they would just pat their butt and leave. This is nothing new.

Seeing someone taking the lead in leaving, others didn't stay. In a blink of an eye, several university professors all disappeared, and Chen Qiang was the only one left in the huge office.

Chen Qiang also sympathized with these professors. He worked hard to create an outline of sports textbooks, but was rejected by the words of an official above. Dozens of days of hard work were in vain. If anyone else had any, he would feel uncomfortable.

If it is in the future, such as the design industry and copywriting planning, it will often encounter this situation. If the product plan is spent a lot of energy on, the boss will do it in vain if he says "No". The baby is not sad, but he has to work overtime to do it again.

But these university professors are different. They originally had their own jobs, and they wanted to be famous and had income. They didn't expect the subsidy of the textbook editor's office to live. Even if they could not compile physical education textbooks, they were all well-known physical education professors in China. For them, editing textbooks was just a icing on the cake.

So the same baby felt distressed, and several university professors were not accustomed to those officials and went on strike.

...

In the afternoon, Zhang Daofan came to the textbook editor's office and saw the hollowed-out room of the crowd, only Chen Qiang was left, and sighed helplessly.

Although Zhang Daofan holds an important position, he is a painter and pursued his artistic dream when he was young. He himself is the initiator of the Chinese Literature and Art Society. He knows very well about literati and scholars. He also knows that these famous university professors are all donkeys and are very stubborn!

"It's a bit troublesome now. Everyone has been exposed. How can I compile this textbook? I have to visit these professors one by one and invite them back." Zhang Daofan sighed helplessly.

Chen Qiang came up, poured a cup of tea for Zhang Daofan, and advised: "Senior brother, please calm down. Several professors are knowledgeable people, and these knowledgeable people have a big temper."

"Yes, I have a big temper, but I have no temper, so I can bully you!" Zhang Daofan smiled bitterly and shook his head, then said:

"Actually, the outline of the sports textbook you submitted before is not feasible at all. It's okay in primary school, mainly sports such as running and jumping. But in middle school, there are basketball, football, tennis, and baseball, and don't you have to spend money? Not to mention anything else, at least most middle schools in China cannot build competition venues! Our China is now suffering from internal and external troubles, so where can we have free money to do these things!"

"As for the Germans, it may not be applicable to our China. Before the European War, Germany was the first-class sports power in Europe. Although Germany was defeated in the European War, its foundation was there. We could not compare to others in this regard. Let us learn the quasi-militarized sports training of Germany, and our Chinese could not bear it! Twenty or thirty years ago, when we walked around this Nanjing city, there were smokers everywhere. Foreigners called us "Sick Man in East Asia" and it was not unfair at all!"

Zhang Daofan also returned from studying in the UK and has a certain degree of understanding of European and American sports, so he is not the kind of bureaucrat who knows nothing. Knowing that this kind of direct copying foreign sports education will inevitably be unacceptable to the local environment in China.

Chen Qiang took out a stack of manuscript paper from the drawer on his desk and handed it to Zhang Daofan. At the same time, he said, "Senior Brother, this is the outline of the sports textbook I wrote. Please help me see how it is."

"The outline of the sports textbooks you wrote?" Zhang Daofan looked at Chen Qiang with a surprised look, as if saying: Can you still write out the outline of the sports textbooks?

Chen Qiang said, "I came late. When I came in this textbook editing office, several professors almost edited the sports textbook outline. This was the one that was rejected today, so I did not participate in the editing of the sports textbook outline. Moreover, I was a newcomer and should learn more from several professors, and I did not express my own opinions."

Chen Qiang said, pointing to the outline of the sports textbook he wrote, and then said, "Through these days, I have studied with several professors and have some new ideas about editing sports textbooks, so I sorted out a little and wrote it down. I also asked my senior brother to help me see. There must be many shortcomings in it, and my senior brother also criticized it."

"Okay, let's take a look!" Zhang Daofan said casually, but judging from his attitude, he had no hope for the outline of the sports textbook written by Chen Qiang.

The Ministry of Education convened several famous physical education professors and compiled the outline, which was eventually rejected by the above. How much meaningful can the outline created by Chen Qiang alone have?

However, Chen Qiang at least called "senior brother" at all, and Zhang Daofan couldn't make it straightforward to avoid damaging Chen Qiang's enthusiasm for work. So he took the outline of the sports textbook written by Chen Qiang and looked through the first page.

"Huh?" After watching it for less than a minute, Zhang Daofan let out a soft cry of surprise.

Zhang Daofan raised his head and asked, "Chen Qiang, did you write this?"

Chen Qiang nodded: "I have nothing to do these days, so I wrote this, Senior Brother, how do you think it is?"

"It's hard to say, I'll take a look." Zhang Daofan began to read carefully.

Zhang Daofan's performance fell into Chen Qiang's eyes, and Chen Qiang also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

"It seems that the outline of the sports textbook I wrote is very suitable for Zhang Daofan's appetite." Chen Qiang said in his heart.

In modern China, almost all fields were learning from the great powers, and many of them were even copied directly from foreign countries. In terms of physical education, the United States and Germany were both relatively successful in physical education, so at that time, China's physical education was also learning from these two countries. Either it was like the United States, professionalizing sports, or militarizing sports like Germany.

Chen Qiang knew that neither of these two paths worked, and China's national conditions were different from those of the United States and Germany.

Given the situation in China at that time, it would definitely not work to follow the path of sports development in the United States. There was no stable environment to develop sports under internal and external troubles. There was a constant domestic war and the Japanese were eyeing them, and the people lived in poverty. China could not professionalize and commercialize sports like the United States.

It is definitely not feasible to follow the path of sports development in Germany. Chinese people are peace-loving. At this time, Germany has embarked on the path of military and nationality. Physical education has begun to serve the military purely. Students start to conduct military training and learn military skills in schools. In this regard, Japan is more thorough than Germany. Japanese students are almost as good as military academy when they go to school.

Chinese people must take their own path to develop into a sports power. And this is true. Although China has experienced many ups and downs in the process of developing sports, even if Chinese athletes are still treated unfairly in 2019, China has indeed become a sports power!

Therefore, the outline of the sports textbooks drawn up by Chen Qiang is not based on the United States or Germany. Strictly speaking, the outline of the sports textbooks written by Chen Qiang has a little bit of the shadow of the former Soviet Union sports.

After the end of the Soviet Civil War in the 1920s, national sports began to be vigorously developed. At that time, the most widely-produced sports among the Soviet masses were cross-country running, followed by boxing, swimming and skiing.

Cross-country running and boxing are both sports and quasi-military training. People who have long-term cross-country running training will definitely have good physical fitness and physical fitness. If you encounter war, such people do not need to undergo physical training. They just need to learn military techniques such as shooting and become soldiers and go to the battlefield. When there is no war, cross-country running training can also help people exercise and make their bodies healthy and strong.

In the future, during World War II, the Soviet Union will be able to resist the German attack in a short period of time, which is also based on the Soviet Union's sports system.

The outline of sports textbooks drawn up by Chen Qiang absorbs some of the advantages of Soviet sports.

The Soviet Union fought another civil war after World War I, and the country was quite poor. Moreover, due to ideological reasons, the whole world was full of hostility towards the Soviet Union. At that time, the Soviet Union was also considered internal and external troubles. However, Soviet sports eventually developed in this adversity, which also shows that Soviet sports have certain advantages.

Although Chen Qiang's outline of sports textbooks does not advocate military speech like German sports, it is mainly focused on the development of quasi-military sports, such as cross-country running and national martial arts sports. Compared with regular militarized training, this quasi-military sports are low in cost and fast in effect, which is very suitable for China's current national conditions.

For example, cross-country running, except for shoes, there is no cost.

Of course, Chen Qiang does not want China to embark on the military path of Germany or Japan. If possible, Chen Qiang would rather come up with a peaceful and sustainable sports textbook outline, and gradually popularize sports through one or even several generations of people, so that China's sports can develop.

But the situation did not allow Chen Qiang to do so. It was the end of 1933, and there were less than four years before the Lugou Bridge Incident in 1937. After four years, the entire Chinese nation will enter the most dangerous moment. When the nation is in danger, what is needed is the warriors who can pick up guns and fight against the invaders!

Therefore, Chen Qiang came up with this set of sports textbook outlines that are mainly quasi-military sports projects. Chen Qiang hopes that this sports textbook outline can cultivate more "quasi-soldiers" for China. Once the war comes, they only need to conduct simple military technical training to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy.

Chen Qiang knew that the War of Resistance Against Japan was a lasting process, and the Chinese would spend more than ten years on this. If this set of sports textbooks could be promoted from 1934, then by the victory of the Anti-Japanese War in 1945, millions of "quasi-soldiers" would be trained every year for a full eleven years, and a protracted war with the invaders.

Chen Qiang is not a soldier king or an invincible commander. If you ask him to go to the battlefield, you will basically give him a head for nothing!

But as a sportsman, he will use his own methods to contribute to the country and the nation!

...

Zhang Daofan spent a long time carefully reading the outline of the sports textbooks written by Chen Qiang.

After reading it, Zhang Daopan confirmed again: "Chen Qiang, did you really write this?"

"Senior brother, do you think that in the teaching material editor's office, apart from me, can other professors write this thing?" Chen Qiang asked with a smile.

"I can't write it out." Zhang Daofan also knew the professors, but he still couldn't believe that this outline was written by Chen Qiang.
