    Hull's face looked really bad.  Because the Chinese people¡¯s tactics really make them passive.  China is poor, China is being invaded, and the Chinese people may lose their lives at any time under the iron heel of the Japanese invaders But they have not forgotten the people of the United States of America who once extended a helping hand to China and supported China's war of resistance!  When the Chinese people heard that the United States had suffered a shameless sneak attack by the Japanese, they immediately stretched out their weak, even thin arms They donated more than one million U.S. dollars to the United States of America.  This is not much money.  Just over a million dollars.  From a national perspective, this amount of money is not even a drop in the bucket.  This is another huge sum of money.  More than a million dollars.  From the perspective of ordinary Americans, this is a huge amount of money that can instantly lift someone from hell to heaven.  Although there are already billionaires these days, the most common name for rich people is "millionaire"!  The Chinese actually spent so much money all at once. What does this mean?  It shows that the Chinese people really have feelings for the United States and sympathize with their experiences.  According to the FBI's investigation, the Chinese Embassy is still operating secretly, clarifying to the American people through newspapers and radio stations how much more than one million U.S. dollars is: in China, this money can arm at least ten divisions of troops.  !  Although these troops may only have one old rifle per person, or even the smallest mortar, the troops of these ten divisions can defend the already fragmented area under the Japanese aircraft and artillery.  country!  In China, this amount of money can help millions of refugees who have been uprooted from their homes due to the war and have no food and clothing. In China, this one million US dollars can build more than 100 small and medium-sized factories and provide employment for tens of thousands of people.  Problem; in China In short, the Chinese have given their hearts to the American people.  But why would the Chinese do this?  Because of the friendship between China and the United States.  Because many Americans have worked for China's war of resistance.  Not to mention those American pastors and doctors who came forward to expose the brutality of the Japanese army, but only Henry Luce, the founder of Time magazine, and his father, the old missionary Luce Siyi.  A missionary in China for fifteen years. From 1912 when he returned to the United States until about 1930, he served as the head of the Chinese Church University Foundation (in the United States). He constantly collected donations from all over the world to support Yenching University in Peking, China, and Shandong University.  Elderly people such as Qilu University (also an American church school) who mail education funds have been working hard for China's independent war of resistance for many years.  The Chinese people keep these friends in their hearts!  The Chinese people pay attention to "a drop of water's kindness, and a spring of spring's kindness will be repaid"!  Although China is in a very difficult situation now and its enemies are getting stronger day by day, the Chinese people will never give in, nor will they just sit back and watch their friends suffer.  The Chinese people are willing to extend a hand of friendship to the American people at any time and do their best to help every American people who can be helped.  The American people are moved!  It¡¯s impossible not to be moved.  ??Look at the suffering of the Chinese people, look at what the Chinese people are suffering nowbut they are able to save money and food at this time.  I would rather be hungry and miserable myself, but I would also like to express condolences to the United States, which was attacked by Japan, and do my best to provide support.  What a great feeling is this?  Many newspapers, magazines, and radio stations, including Time Magazine, have also analyzed the situation in the Pacific Rim. These news media almost unanimously believe that it is precisely because of China¡¯s efforts to fight against Japan over the past few years, and it is precisely because of those poor people.  The Chinese people, who were backward, backward, and might not even know the Chinese characters, fought one after another against the Japanese invaders without fear of sacrifice. Only then did the United States gain stability.  otherwise.  The Japanese would have dropped their bombs on American soil long ago.  The Japanese might even invade the United States directly.  Because they were held back by the Chinese and forced to invest more than one million troops on the Chinese battlefield, their strength was seriously insufficient.  But if there were no Chinese, then the Japanese, known as the world's third-largest maritime power, could have dropped these troops into North America instead of just dropping two thousand airborne troops like they do now And if that were the case  .  Well, congratulations to the United States. At this moment when all three Pacific railways are damaged, the Panama Canal is damaged, and east-west transportation is seriously affected, the western United States will likely be completely lost.  Because until now, the United States does not have many regular troops, and the number of troops stationed in the west is even pitiful.  Facing hundreds of thousands.  Even with more Japanese troops, the United States is almost undefended.  ¡­God bless America!  There are Chinese people standing in front of us.  These reports are somewhat sensational, and they also overestimate China¡¯s role in the United States.  But it is undeniable that many of the views here are quite correct.  And the most important point is.  In none of these reports did the U.S. governmentIt has become a negative teaching material.  When China was invaded by Japan, during China's most difficult moment, the U.S. government ignored Japan's threat to the United States and still sold various military supplies to Japan, although these supplies were sold at high prices; before the Japanese launched a shameful sneak attack,  The Chinese government has repeatedly warned the United States, asking the United States to be careful about Japan and this crazy country. However, the U.S. government arrogantly ignored these warnings and insisted that Japan would not and would not dare to attack the United States Fortunately,  The Chinese have not clearly expressed their pessimism about the situation in the Philippines. Otherwise, if the situation is not preserved, many Americans, especially the families of American soldiers in the Philippines, will come out to demonstrate and petition the government.  In that case, it will be increasingly difficult for the US government to keep the Chinese army out of its colonies.  But even this is enough to make things difficult for the White House and Congress.  The Chinese have donated millions of dollars in such difficult circumstances, so shouldn¡¯t the American people also express their gratitude?  What's more, the Chinese only give loans.  Besides, the government had previously given 50 destroyers to the UK. Although it was said to be a lease, that didn't mean the same thing?  According to rumors, British Prime Minister Churchill jumped for joy after hearing that the United States was attacked by Japan. How can this performance be compared with that of the Chinese?  The benefits the U.S. government provides to the British are far greater than those to the Chinese, right?  Instead of giving money to people who only gloat about their misfortunes and wish Americans would bleed and die for them, why not give money to more trustworthy people?  What's more, Germany did not attack the United States.  Should the United States seek revenge from Japan first?  And lending money to the Chinese is one of the best ways to retaliate against Japan.  Although it is never the American people who have the final say in the United States, the public sentiment will still affect the U.S. government.  This is one of the reasons why the U.S. government is aware of these actions of the Chinese, but cannot lose face with Chinait is difficult to explain to the American people.  They can¡¯t tell the American people that the Chinese gave this million, but they actually want to get it back from them a hundred times or two hundred times, right?  It's just a loan, you have to pay it back!  Besides, I said it before.  The British also benefited from the United States. Although they were also invaded, they didn't lose much of their land, right?  Compared with the Chinese, the British's suffering is much smaller.  But they heard about what happened in the United States, did they donate?   "We can't learn from the British. They have industry and colonies all over the world, and they can afford to pay back the money, so Americans are willing to borrow money. But we are different. We are too poor. If we want to borrow money, we can only play the emotional card  The investment of one million must be repaid by a thousand times." Yan Huiqing ignored the expressions of Hel and others.  He leaned into Song Ziwen's ear and whispered.  "A thousand times?" Song Ziwen's face trembled three times in succession, "Is your appetite too big? A thousand times one million, that's one billion US dollars!" "The estimate is about three billion."  Yan Huiqing was expressionless, "But this is just the minimum." "Madman. Do you think Americans are fools? With so much money, you can buy half of China." Song Ziwen gritted his teeth. "The war is fought with money. Three billion and  Compared with other European countries, it is only a fraction." Yan Huiqing sighed, "During World War I, Britain's total military expenditure alone was 8 billion pounds. Even based on the exchange rate before World War II, it was only 4 billion pounds.  Tens of billions of dollars. That was more than 20 years ago, and most of the army had not yet been mechanized, let alone the consumption of air force and armored forces. But now, according to our calculations, Germany¡¯s military expenditure has reached 100 billion.  Above the U.S. dollar, the United Kingdom is not far behind. The Soviet Union has not yet officially entered the war, but its military expenditure has exceeded 10 billion U.S. dollars for just one battle with the Japanese. Japan is the least, and has invested 30 to 40 billion U.S. dollars for several years of fighting.  U.S. dollars According to some data we have obtained, the U.S. military expenditures last year exceeded 2 billion U.S. dollars. After being attacked by Japan this year, military expenditures will inevitably skyrocket. It is initially estimated to reach about 7 billion U.S. dollars, and once it enters the war  , this number will increase again. Next year, U.S. military spending is expected to rise to between 20 and 30 billion U.S. dollars. Once the United States enters the war, the scale of the war will further expand. By then, the military spending that Americans need to invest will also increase again.  It is estimated that at most, it may even be 60 billion a year, or even more than 80 billion Of course, such a large amount of money cannot be spent by them themselves. Therefore, the 3 billion we expected is simply not enough. For others,  "It's just drizzle at best." "I don't care how much money you want to get from the Americans. I just want to ask: Why don't I know anything about this?" Song Ziwen said angrily.  "I was going to tell you, but did you listen?" Yan Huiqing glanced at him, "You have your own story.??, he didn't even take the Chairman's words to heart. As soon as he arrived in the United States, he just asked us to follow your arrangementsa loan of US$20 million first?  You are so cautious and embarrassed to say that you represent a country.  " "You" Song Ziwen didn't expect that Yan Huiqing would dare to despise him like this, and he almost broke out on the spot. But fortunately, he considered in time that there were Americans on the other side and couldn't be embarrassed, so he temporarily restrained himself and planned to go back and cause trouble for Yan Huiqing again.  However, no matter how much he suppressed it, his expression still changed, and this fell into the eyes of Henry Morgenthau Jr., the U.S. Secretary of the Treasury, who had been watching with cold eyes. So, he spoke: "Mr. Song  "
