September 1, 1918, 2759 AD, Guangzhou.
Hongyun Company is celebrating a festival today.
The entire antique-style headquarters building is decorated with lights and colorful decorations.
There are not only traditional lanterns and revolving lanterns, but also trendy neon lights.
The square outside the company gate is even more lively.
Two bands are playing music to add to the fun.
Eight dancing dragons and twelve pairs of lions.
There is also a stage set up in the center of the square.
It looks like there will be another big show tonight.
This scene attracted a lot of onlookers.
Some of them were curious and asked what the company was doing today.
Soon an insider told them that this was an old rule of the company.
Every time the country updated the national map, the boss here There is going to be a big event called "Please Map".
It's embarrassing, but there's nothing I can do about it.
People who have money are just willful.
"This year is the biggest one.
Fatty Shen invited the best Cantonese opera troupe in South China to perform for three days in a row, hahaha," a theater fan said happily.
"But this time Fatty Shen actually doesn't open the running water table.
Oh, it's true."
A fellow glutton said with a regretful expression.
"Now that Fatty Shen has been elected as the National Outstanding Entrepreneur, things are different.
I said last time that if such a happy event happens in the future, he will not open a running restaurant.
He is going to do some charity work.
I heard that he will do this this time Donated 500,000 yuan to the provincial social welfare institution."
A good person extended a hand and gestured.
"Fuck, 500,000 yuan, the money spent on these idiots is probably enough to live on a living table for half a month," the old glutton said angrily.
"You know how to eat, do you know how to respect the old and love the young?
The money donated by Fatty Shen is to support the elderly and orphans.
It is much better than feeding you horse urine."
Someone immediately said with contempt.
Of course, Fatty Shen couldn't hear these discussions.
He was currently in the main hall of the company, looking at the new map that had just been hung up with a red face.
This map is getting bigger and bigger.
The original map was less than half of the wall of the main hall of the old house.
Now this map almost takes up the entire wall of the main hall.
This is the main hall of the new building, which is taller than that of the old house.
Much more.
In fact, it is not that there are no small-scale maps, but Fatty Shen is rich and willful, so he must buy the original map of the same scale.
According to his own words, "this can more intuitively see the changes in the territory."
Well, there are quite a few people who think this way.
Anyway, for the printing house, it doesn't matter, as long as you pay, you can take whatever proportion you want.
Now, there are still previous versions of maps in the hall.
These maps are hung on temporary brackets made of herringbone ladders, forming a circle with the newly arrived maps.
They are arranged clockwise in chronological order.
Shen Minlong's Now he was standing in the middle of the map array with a group of his men.

This guy was looking around, the fat on his face was shaking happily, and his eyes were narrowed into slits.
"Well, the shape of this map is much better than before."
Shen Wenlong took a few steps left and right, then tilted his head and looked at it, and asked with a smile: "Do you think so?"
"That's right, it does look much better."
Everyone echoed.
"The roosters and maple leaves in the past are not as beautiful as the shape of this galloping horse.
Do you think it looks like a galloping horse?"
Shen Minlong patted his belly and laughed.
"Yes, yes, this is a galloping horse."
Everyone agreed with embarrassment.
In fact, they were all vomiting in their hearts: Why can't I see that this map is shaped like a galloping horse?
Well, you are the boss, let alone that it looks like a galloping horse.
Yes, you can say it looks like a hippopotamus.
"Boss, how big a territory does our Tianchao have now?"
a manager asked very wisely.
In fact, he wants to divert the boss's attention.
He is very aware of his boss's moral character.
At this time, his spirit will be in a state of "I haven't taken any medicine today and I feel cute."
"Haha, let me do the math."
Upon hearing this, Shen Wenlong immediately came out of the "cute" state and immediately took out a small notebook and started flipping through it.
"Last year we smoked people from Henan, oh, that's right, we smoked the Dutch.
I'm just going to blame you for asking why these guys are called the Netherlands.
It's too easy to confuse them with our big Henan.
These foreign devils, even How can it be that none of the names are easy to remember?"
Fatty Shen was very unhappy.
"Boss, the Netherlands is the customary name for them in China.
They don't call them that.
Their name is the Netherlands, the Kingdom of the Netherlands," an employee who looked like a university graduate said in a rude manner.
"What are you calling your rotten, your rotten man?
What a lousy name!
No wonder you look so bad on the street, you can't even beat anyone, hahahaha."
Fatty Shen and his men burst into laughter.
"Uh, it's Netherlands, no, it's not your fault."
The graduate's face turned into embarrassment.
"No matter, it sounds the same anyway."
Fatty Shen waved his hand boldly and continued: "Last year, I slapped you, hahaha, we got East India, which is 15.58 million square kilometers.
This year, I slapped you. , We got back all the lost land from the former Qing Dynasty, and made an extra piece of money for the boss.
This time it was 1,258.72 million square kilometers.
Who can we add up?
Bring me an abacus."
Shen Wenlong flipped through the small book and foamed at the mouth.
Feidi said.
Fatty Shen had just received the abacus and was about to calculate when he heard someone behind him excitedly shouting: "It's 2816.
It's on the 850,000 square kilometers map."
Damn, I'm pretending to be cool, but you dare to rob me.

Fatty Shen looked back with a dark face, and saw a new guy standing next to the map.
He pointed at the map with a happy face and said, "Look, there is something written under the map.
What’s the land area?
Uh, why are you looking at me like this?”
The young man suddenly realized that there was something wrong with the way everyone looked at him, as if they were looking at him with a little pity and a little gloating.
But he didn't wonder for too long, he soon knew why.
"Okay, okay."
Fatty Shen came over, patted his shoulder affectionately, and smiled sinisterly: "You are very smart, observe carefully, and react faster than me.
I must remember your name is Erxi. , I’m still in the internship period.”
"Uh, yes, boss" Erxi nodded repeatedly.
"Okay, your task this month is to clean the toilets.
You have to cover all the twelve men's toilets in the headquarters building."
After saying this, Fatty Shen turned around and left.
"Remember, clean three times a day.
If it's not clean, you have to do it again."
"Ah, this month, I will clean all the men's toilets in the headquarters building."
Erxi classmate almost cried.
The others covered their mouths and snickered.
"The boss has finally put on a show, and you have to compete with him for the limelight.
You are really short-sighted.
You deserve it."
The manager walked over and lectured in a low voice: "Remember in the future, never compete with the boss for the limelight."
Chinese Academy of Literature and History.
In the past few days, the Academy of Literature and History has gathered many "Masters of Traditional Chinese Studies" from all over the country.
There are "domestic masters" from within the Academy of Literature and History, as well as from major institutions and colleges, and there are also "wild masters" who have not entered the establishment.
Among them, "wild" people account for more than half, and there are many famous people among them, such as Liang Qichao, Wang Guowei, Cai Yuanpei, etc., many big names in the circle.
In the early years after the founding of the People's Republic of China, due to the severe partiality of the literary general and the lack of attention to the masters, many "masters" who were conceited about their talent and reputation were arrogant and ignored the recruitment of the Academy of Literature and History.
I want to show my character as a scholar.
But we all know that there is definitely something called "literary character", but let alone the quantity, at least the vast majority of literati do not have this kind of organ.
Their arrogance is nothing more than trying to promote themselves.
But how did they know that the government of the Socialist Party of Science and Technology led by Wen Desi was completely alien and did not act according to the script they imagined.
It was agreed to "visit the thatched cottage three times", but why didn't it happen?
Even if you are an old man with many things to do and don't have time to visit the thatched cottage three times, you can do it once.
You don't even need to do it in person, you can just send someone or send a post.
But the Socialist Party of Science and Technology acted as if they did not exist.
Not to mention coming to invite them, there was not even a letter of invitation.
In fact, there are quotas for recruiting such masters, but recruitment notices are publicly published in newspapers, or announced on television or radio.
The Socialist Party's attitude towards these people is, I have already announced that if you like them, you will come, and if you don't, you will pull them down.
In those years, the "masters" were still very ambitious.
Except for those who were not well-known or who were in the Socialist Party circle and would apply for jobs, those who were conceited, talented and well-educated would not give a damn.
Dian Dian's move is coming.
These people call themselves "modern hermits" and form small circles where they sing poems and praise each other.
These people themselves also have certain financial strength, and their families are relatively rich.
In addition, the domestic society is stable and the supply of materials is increasingly abundant.
This kind of leisurely life is quite comfortable.

But this kind of life is not what they pursue, at least most people do not pursue this kind of pursuit.
Although the life of a hermit is free and comfortable, if they continue to live like this, it will really cost their lives.
What is the purpose of everyone's ten years of hard study?
Isn't it just to become a master, to live in a temple, to have a glorious ancestor?
Who really wants to be a hermit?
Originally, they had the mentality that "the new government will definitely regret their actions, and when the hod cannot bear it any longer, they will come with a large sedan chair to invite us to come out."
But they thought wrong again.
The Socialist Party of Science and Technology really pretended that they did not exist.
They regretted it within a few years.
The national power of New China is growing with each passing day, and its strength is expanding at a speed that is almost like a dream.
Within a few years, China's decline over the past century was completely reversed.
It achieved a great reversal at a jaw-dropping speed.
It expanded its territories everywhere and maneuvered internationally.
In a few years, it continuously overthrew France and crippled it.
I went to Japan, my car flew to the Netherlands, and now I’m making Maozi cry too.
Now, not only is the country powerful and has become a world-recognized first-class power, but the quality of life of the people has also reached a level that was previously unimaginable, and even the land area has expanded to a level far beyond that of any previous generation.
Seeing that a prosperous age far beyond the Han and Tang Dynasties is coming, the masters can no longer sit still.
They all regret it now, why they were so arrogant back then.
It was really stupid.
I was confused and didn't apply for the job, and the result was cheap A bunch of unknown juniors, and now even little guys like Chen Yinke, Zhou Shuren, Liang Shuming, and Xiong Shili have become academicians.
Damn, this academician of the Academy of Literature and History is equivalent to the Imperial Academy of the previous dynasty.
Although everyone in the academic community knows that within China’s “five major academies” system, the Academy of Literature and History is not taken seriously by the General Administration of Literature and Art.
Not to mention compared with the "sons" and "daughters" in the Academy of Sciences, the Academy of Engineering, and the Academy of Social Sciences, even the "child brides" in the Academy of Art are inferior.
But even if they are just "maids" in the five courtyards, they are still officially established by the government.
Nowadays, the title of an academician of the Academy of Literature and History is extremely valuable in the circle.
And as the prestige and strength of the new Chinese government rise, this gold content is getting higher and higher.
The masters are now beating their chests with regrets and wishing they could kick themselves.
Now they are all trying their best to get into the system.
Even if they can no longer be as prosperous as the previous dynasty, they still have the opportunity to contact the upper levels.
So now they pay close attention to media announcements.
Once they hear that the government needs something, they will come to help without saying a word.
There is no need to go to the door or ask for an invitation.
Even if you bring your own dry food, of course, the Socialist Party of Science and Technology will not be stingy to this extent.
Anyone who comes to participate in government projects will have to pay for travel and living expenses, as well as various subsidies and remuneration.
Half a month ago, the Academy of Literature and History published another announcement summoning "masters" from across the country to participate in government projects.
The main task this time was to rename those new territories, including towns, villages, mountains, rivers, islands, etc.
The task of "naming" seems relatively simple, but it is really a laborious job.
In the past, it was easy to say that the territory obtained was small, and Mr.
Wen made the decision himself.
But in the past six months, too much territory has been occupied.
Mr.
Wen doesn't have the time to think about it.
Not to mention him, even the relevant government departments feel numb when looking at the territory of more than tens of millions of square kilometers.
Not to mention the lost land gained from Mao Zi, even in the East India region of Southeast Asia, many places have not had their names changed.
Therefore, Prime Minister Zhang Lizheng suggested mobilizing the masses and pooling their efforts.

Government departments are also overwhelmed.
Mr.
Wen agreed to this suggestion, so the government publicly solicited place names from the public, and at the same time asked the Academy of Literature and History to take the lead and take the masters to play, which was also to find something for them to do.
"This Central Asia can also be regarded as the hometown of Anxi, China.
Didn't you see that the map from the Tang Dynasty extended to here?
So it is reasonable, legal and reasonable for us to take back our homeland."
"But the Anxi Protectorate of the Tang Dynasty did not have such a large sphere of influence in Central Asia."
"Haha, it has been more than a thousand and hundreds years since the Tang Dynasty.
Isn't the population growing?
Once the population grows, the territory will naturally expand.
Is there anything strange about it?"
"Oh, it turns out you can say it like this."
"Of course" "According to ancient books, I believe that Mount Buzhou is the Pamir Plateau."
"No, the Classic of Mountains and Seas says that Buzhou Mountain is outside the Northwest Sea, in the corner of the wilderness.
It should be the Caucasus Mountain between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea."
"But the Caucasus Mountains are not ours yet."
"Okay, just call it later.
Just give it a name first, and then you can use it directly."
“Brother is really tall” Now the masters are divided into dozens of groups, looking through piles of old papers, quoting scriptures, and discussing with each other. s: Specially soliciting new territory place names from readers:
