African Nationhood

Chapter 205 Chinese
  The two went up to the third floor. All the waiters here were dismissed, so Shi Jintang walked to a wine cabinet and poured two glasses of whiskey.

He picked up a cup, and Ouyang Geng also reached out and picked up a cup.

The two touched each other, and then Shi Jintang put down his wine glass, looked at Ouyang Geng and smiled, "Your little girlfriend is pretty good, she likes our culture very much, this is our advantage.

So it suddenly occurred to me that we should strengthen our "cultural attributes" among immigrants. "

"Cultural attribute?"

"Yes, this is one of my names, it can also be called a national characteristic.

The meaning of ‘cultural attributes’ is that people can understand the cultural form of the region at a glance.

For example, an Asian with braids, yellow skin, and dark eyes can be recognized as a Qing Dynasty person at a glance.

In the same way, the French, British, and Germans all have similar distinctive characteristics.

We have established roots in southern Africa, so it is time for us to establish our own national identity.

For example, the simplified Chinese characters, Chinese costumes and pinyin literacy methods I worked on before are all within the category of cultural attributes.

The process of establishing cultural attributes can be called ‘cultural construction’. "

After hearing this, Ouyang Geng finally understood what his old classmate was thinking.

"I originally thought you were doing these things to change the dynasty, but it turns out you are also trying to establish 'cultural attributes.' In terms of foresight, basically no one can be better than you."

Shi Jintang shook his head, "I haven't done enough, I need you to continue to expand. You went to Jinshan Town to promote the "door-to-door opera" activity, so it's suitable to do more.

We also need to set up some cultural promotion activities, such as the Hanfu Design Competition, to design clothes suitable for modern times based on ancient costumes.

White people learn Chinese competition. When the company was first established, there were many indigenous white people in Walvis Bay. They have now integrated into the Chinese-speaking environment. These people will be an important part of our cultural construction.

Give them rewards and give them publicity opportunities, so that more white people can learn Chinese, and then our cultural awareness will be broader.

In addition, we need to rediscover some traditional festivals in Chinese civilization and promote them so that this Chinese civilization can be carried forward in our hands and enhance the cultural identity and pride of our people.

We have guided public opinion in our previous sports games, which has made many Chinese immigrants realize that we Chinese are no worse than white people.

We are equally good, we just lack platform and opportunities.

Therefore, after our Nanhua company provided a platform, many Chinese athletes surpassed white people and won many championships. This is also an aspect of cultural construction. "

After hearing this, Ouyang Geng finally realized Shi Jintang's in-depth thinking on these issues.

At this moment, he really admired Boss Shi thoroughly. Ouyang Geng nodded: "Okay, I will dig deeper according to your instructions. This will be the direction of our next work in the cultural and sports department. Thank you, Boss Shi." guide!"

Shi Jintang took a sip of the wine in his glass and said, "It's all for work, don't deal with the frivolous things."

Ouyang Geng nodded, "You, the boss, are so professional that you make me, a subordinate, feel ashamed."

“In addition to the above points, we also need to create a term.”

"What noun?"

"'Chinese' is a national characteristic unique to all Asian immigrants under the rule of the South China Company.

Put all the Asian immigrants under our South China Company into the concept of 'Chinese', so that we can work together and be united when facing foreign enemies. "

Hearing this, Ouyang Geng couldn't help but stop drinking.

Today's conversation was too important. If he drank again, he wouldn't be able to remember it.

On the contrary, Boss Shi became more energetic as he drank and talked more and more.

“According to your statement, the ‘Chinese’ group should include not only our immigrants from the Qing Dynasty in the Far East, but also those women of East Asian and Southeast Asian ethnic groups who were influenced by Confucian culture?”

Regarding Ouyang Geng's question, Shi Jintang's answer is yes. “Yes, if they marry a Chinese immigrant, they will integrate into the Chinese cultural circle and take on Chinese cultural attributes.

Because their children are of Chinese descent, they are all ‘Chinese’.

This is why I insisted before that we only want female immigrants from foreign ethnic groups and not male immigrants.

Once men of foreign races enter our territory, they will pollute the purity of the Chinese blood, which is very detrimental to our early cultural construction. "

Ouyang Geng nodded, "Yes, I understand. Is there anything else you want to explain?"

"Just keep this matter in your heart. Don't talk about it verbally, but practice it personally. We will bring it up when the time is right."

Ouyang Geng nodded in agreement: "I understand, just bear with it for now and wait for the opportunity."

After explaining this, Shi Jintang also felt the drunkenness rising, "Let's go down."

Ouyang Geng nodded, and the two of them helped him go downstairs.

When they arrived on the second floor, they found that many students had almost finished drinking. Shi Jintang told Ouyang Geng and others to take care of everyone, and he went back first.

Ouyang Geng, Cai Shaoji and others quickly agreed and then sent Boss Shi downstairs. Ye Rong was already a little alienated here, but she still pretended to be calm and dealt with the advances and overtures of various women.

Now that she saw Master Shi drunk, she felt distressed and at the same time complained that Master Shi didn't know how to take care of his body.

He quickly stepped forward and took Master Shi into his hands, and then worked together with Shi Ming to send Master Shi into the carriage.

After sitting in the carriage, Shi Jintang was still somewhat conscious.

He forced himself to stand in front of Ye Rong, still caring about Ye Rong: "You said you were not feeling well before, but I forgot about it as soon as I drank. How are you now? Do you want to go to the hospital?"

Ye Rong felt Master Shi breathing close at hand, and the heat and alcohol made her a little dizzy.

She shook her head, but Master Shi was right in front of her. She shook her head and put her cheek to Master Shi's mouth.

Although the contact time was short, Ye Rong was already blushing and her heart was beating.

She said calmly: "It's okay."

The voice was too low and Shi Jintang couldn't hear it at all. He couldn't help but get closer and said, "I didn't hear you. What did you just say?"

Feeling that Master Shi was approaching her again, Ye Rong couldn't care less about being shy. She raised her head and looked directly into Master Shi's drunken eyes and said softly: "I said thank you."

What Ye Rong said made Shi Jintang a little confused.

He tried to sit up straight, but suddenly his head felt dizzy, and his head couldn't support it and fell directly on Ye Rong's shoulders.

With such close contact, Ye Rong suddenly didn't dare to move.

"Master, are you okay?"

Shi Jintang was very dizzy at the moment. He whispered, "It's okay, I'm just a little dizzy. Please let me rest for a while."

When Ye Rong heard this, she said "Oh", but her whole body froze and she didn't dare to move at all.

Shi Jintang leaned on Ye Rong's shoulder, breathing the fragrance of Ye Rong's body, and his desire suddenly aroused.

His hands and feet were a little ready to move, but he kept suppressing himself in his heart. What he said should not be treated as fart. He promised to wait until he got married before touching Ye Rong.

So he competed with his own desires...

I can't lose!
