"He Fengshan will be punished. What I want to know is whether these Jewish refugees flow into our country, is it good or bad for our country? Or should our country accept these Jewish refugees?"

"That depends on how to use it."

Wang Yongjiang spoke.

Said: "Prime Minister, I have long heard that Jews are a wealthy nation in Europe, and their overall education level is also very high. Although these Jewish refugees became refugees, they all lost their jobs because of the Nazi policy. It’s not that they are refugees who have no money. Because of their relatively high level of education, many of these people used to be elites in Germany and Austria. There are doctors, teachers, businessmen, and many who study music and art. If We don't treat them as refugees, but carefully count their situation. According to their strengths, we can arrange jobs for them and make the best use of them. There are only tens of thousands of people, even if it is 10,000+ people or 100 million people, It is not too much for our country to support. If they can give full play to their abilities, I think our country will not suffer in general."

Again.

Jews are generally a wealthy class in Europe, and even poor families have received some education.Before the rise of the Nazis, many people in Europe were decent people, and their jobs were very good.

Although it is not Einstein, there are also famous scientists like Lise Meitner who came to China.But their jobs are all elite.Especially doctors and teachers are the most.

These people come to China, as long as they are used properly, they are still very useful.

"Yes."

Dai Kan also echoed Wang Yongjiang.

Said: "Prime Minister, as the saying goes, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. Although the Nazi Party robbed a lot of assets from the Jews after its rise, it is impossible to lose all of them. These Jews have been doing business for thousands of years, and each of them is better at hiding money. These people must have their own way. Tens of thousands of Jews, 10,000+ people, many of them were once wealthy. How much money will these people bring when they flood into our country? Even if their own funds are not much, but so many Jews flood Entering our country, it will also attract some wealthy Jewish funds.”

Duan Xun did not comment immediately.

but thinking.Both Dai Kan and Wang Yongjiang believed that accepting these Jews was beneficial to China.Duan Xun also supports this point.Jews are not like those Middle Eastern refugees of the 21st century.

The Jews are an intelligent nation, but also a hardworking nation.

Even if they become refugees, they will not just wait for others to rescue them.When they come to China, they must do it themselves and run around for their own lives.In fact, China also accepted many Jews in history, but not many remained after the war.By the time of liberation, there were only about 2000 Jews left in Shanghai.

There are many reasons.

First of all, there are many differences between Chinese culture and Western culture, and everyone does not understand the language.In addition, it was difficult to find a job in China at that time.Many Jews were former elites, and they had stable jobs when they were in Europe, and they were all skilled.But after coming to China, China was also at a time of civil war, so there was no place for them.Many Jews with excellent skills, including many doctors, engineers, and teachers, cannot find suitable jobs in China.Therefore, after World War II, many Jews went to countries where they could find stable jobs.There are also many parts that, when China was liberated, they left because they were worried about changes in domestic policies.

Duan Xun is not unwilling to give these Jews a place to live.

Because they seem to be many, but they are actually out of proportion to China's 8 million population.It is not a problem to give them a Jewish gathering place.China is so big, it is very easy to find a Jewish gathering place suitable for them.

There are many such places in Northeast China.

Including places where Russians gather, where Koreans gather, where Manchus gather, and where Mongolians gather.As long as he becomes a Chinese citizen and recognizes Chinese culture, Duan Xun supports it.There is no problem in adding another Jewish ghetto.

And among these Jews, there are many things that China needs now.Needless to say, those Jewish doctors, Jewish engineers, and Jewish teachers, Duan Xun is willing to accept even those Jews who study art.After all, China has known wars and industrial construction all these years, and it is indeed relatively backward in terms of art.It is not impossible if these Jewish artists can drive some development of Chinese art.

"Prime Minister, since things are like this, I don't think we can reject these Jewish refugees. In fact, many European countries now have Jewish scientists who have fled from places such as Germany, Austria, and Hungary. These people have been paying attention to the situation in Europe and are also looking for The place where they settled. If we accept these Jewish refugees this time, these Jewish scientists who wait and see may choose to come to our country. Not to mention that there are many useful talents among these Jewish refugees, even if we support tens of thousands of 10,000+ refugees for nothing, As long as more Jewish scientists can be brought in, I think it will be a good deal.”

Dai Kan continued to express his views.

cold.

None of the discussions were about whether China should help these Jewish refugees from a humanitarian perspective.Everyone was discussing whether it would be good for China to rescue these Jewish refugees.

If there is interest, accept these Jewish refugees.If there is no interest, China will not care about these Jewish refugees.The reality is so cruel and cold.It is precisely because of this that countries such as Britain, France and the United States are not willing to issue visas at all.

"Are there many Jewish scientists currently stranded in Europe?"

"a lot of."

You Min spoke.

This information is in the hands of intelligence agencies.Because it is state policy to bring in these Jewish scientists.

"Most of the Jewish scientists who fled from Germany, Austria, Hungary, and Czechoslovakia stayed in other European countries, including Britain, France, Sweden, Belgium, and the Netherlands. However, many of them did not work because these European countries Many universities refuse to hire these Jewish scientists and professors on the grounds that they are full of positions. Many professors fled Germany with only a small amount of funds, and never thought that they would not be able to find a job. Therefore, their lives are already in a predicament. But they're still watching, watching where they should go."

"The Prime Minister, a top scientist, and an outstanding professor have absolutely immeasurable impact on our country's science and education. They can bring a research team, advanced research methods, and advanced education methods. These top scientists come to China will bring scientific research methods to our country, which will greatly promote the scientific development of our country."

Dai Kan spoke again.

Dai Kan is very supportive of accepting those refugees, because such behavior is likely to be of great help to China in introducing those Jewish scientists.Duan Xun also agreed with Dai Kan's idea.

At present, the United States is the number one industrial country in the world, but when it comes to the number of top scientists in the world, the United States is not as good as Europe.Even before the Nazis persecuted the Jews, the number of top scientists in Germany was several times that of the United States.Not to mention the old European powers such as Britain and France.

But it was precisely because of Hitler's anti-Semitic policy, the outbreak of World War II that Germany swept across other European countries, and the rapid fall of France that made those top scientists in Europe quickly flee from Europe.Wherever most of them went, they went to the United States.It was these top scientists who went to the United States and brought not only a large number of research results, but also their scientific research methods.

That is to say, in just ten years, the number of top scientists in the United States quickly surpassed that in Europe.After the end of World War II, the United States has recruited the German scientific community, and the US's technological advantages will be fully established.

In the scientific and technological progress of the United States in the 50s, most of the leading figures were scientists who fled to the United States from Europe.

"What do you think?"

"Since the visas have been issued, we have to accept them."

Yan Huiqing, who advocated punishing He Fengshan, also agreed to accept it.After all, the visas have already been issued, and China cannot deny them at this time.After all, many of the Jews who got visas have already left Austria by boat and are heading to Shanghai, China.There are even some people who took the railway from the Soviet Union and entered the Northeast of China.If China refuses these Jews to enter the country at this time, it will be more hated than not issuing visas.

"it is good."

Duan Xun nodded.

He also made up his mind and said: "Since it is already like this, then let He Fengshan continue to issue his visa. I think He Fengshan's temper, even if we give orders, he will not listen. If this is the case, tell the Germans that we have accepted the visa. When the letter of protest arrived, they were discussing how to punish He Fengshan. Give He Fengshan some time, and issue as many visas as he can. A few days later, He Fengshan was removed from the post of consul general in Vienna. Tell Wei Chen group that all Chinese embassies, public offices in Europe Embassies and consulates can continue to issue visas to Jews, but they can’t make such a big noise. The number of visas issued every day must be strictly controlled to prevent Germans from protesting. Tell Wei Chen’s team that China and Germany are still allies at present, Don’t turn your face around. Let him grasp the scale here. As for He Fengshan, after receiving the dismissal order, let him return to China to accept the questioning of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.”

"Prime Minister, it will take a few days."

"Three days. Reply to the Germans, and we will give them an explanation within three days. After three days, tell the Germans, our punishment decision. Then send the order to the Wei Chen team and let the Wei Chen team choose someone to replace He Fengshan. Before the newcomer replaces He Fengshan, let He Fengshan temporarily act as the consul general. I think it will give He Fengshan five days."

"Yes."

"After He Fengshan returns to China, he must be severely punished. Our government agencies must not allow such unorganized and undisciplined people to appear."

"Yes."

Regardless of whether this time is right or wrong.He Fengshan needs to be punished, and there is no room for negotiation.Duan Xun thought for a while and said, "I also invite a few representative Jews to discuss with them how to resettle these Jewish refugees."

"Consul He, this is a notice as well as an order. We have bought you a flight ticket to return to China, and you will be questioned by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs at home in half a month."

China gave He Fengshan five days.Now that the new consul general in Vienna has taken office, He Fengshan has been removed from his post and will return to China to be questioned and punished by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.Because the Ministry of Foreign Affairs required He Fengshan to return to China within half a month, so He Fengshan had to fly back to China.

Currently, the routes between China and Europe are operated by two airlines.One is Eurasia Airlines, a cooperation between China and Germany, and the other is Sino-British Airlines, a cooperation between China and the United Kingdom.They are all flying between China and Europe.

It takes about a week.

Before He Fengshan left, the Wei Chen team spoke with He Fengshan in Berlin.Wei Chen group is a veteran diplomat. When the Nanjing Interim Government was established, he served as the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Nanjing Interim Government at that time.

He served as the Minister to the Netherlands in 1912 and to Belgium in 1919, and participated in the Paris Peace Conference as a representative. In 1921, he participated in the negotiations between China and Germany, and returned to China for a while to participate in the negotiations with Japan.Then he was sent to Germany as the ambassador to Germany, until now.

In comparison, He Fengshan's qualifications are very shallow.

After coming out of school, I went directly to the legation in Austria, which later became the embassy in Austria, and finally the consulate in Vienna.Adding all these together, He Fengshan has only worked in the diplomatic field for six years.

"Ambassador Wei, I think the domestic decision-making is wrong. If you look at the situation in Austria, how many Jews are hanging by a thread. The Nazi Party in Austria is too crazy, and the business of buying and selling Jewish shops happens every day. Security is no longer guaranteed, and some Jews are even locked in prison by them. If we don't issue visas to them, they will die."
