Save the Bachelor of Heaven

Under the economic crisis, "The Old Man and the Sea", which Xiang Nan wrote before and was not recognized by readers, is now a blessing in disguise and has become a hit article that everyone is eager to read.

The old fisherman described in the novel is tenacious and never gives up. He fights against the sea and sharks. Although he fails in the end, his tough guy temperament of never giving up and poised makes readers feel a sense of humor. Strong spiritual power.

Under this severe economic winter, people who live in poverty and whose future is uncertain need the blessing of this power very much. Therefore, "The Old Man and the Sea" quickly became popular.

The magazine also sent a letter to Xiang Nan, hoping that he would write more similar works, because the people need his encouragement very much.

Xiang Nan then wrote three novels: A Fist, A Fist, A Fist at Twilight, and A Fist, A Fist, and A Fist.

Although everyone has little money under the economic crisis, Xiang Nan's novels are still popular. Still sold over a million copies.

The reason for this is that, just like the lipstick effect, the worse the economic situation is, the more popular these cheap luxury goods are.

According to statistics, under the economic crisis in the United States, the number of subscriptions to reading materials such as "Reader's Digest" has increased significantly. At the beginning, the subscription volume was only 250,000 volumes, but by the end of the economic crisis, its subscription volume had increased to 70-800 million volumes, a huge increase of dozens of times.

...

In addition to literary works, Xiang Nan continued to make efforts in mathematics and physics in March 1931.

He successively published two books, "Equilibrium Theory in Game Theory" and "Quantum Field Theory".

The former enriches and develops game theory, making it more practical. The latter provides an effective description framework for describing multi-particle systems, especially systems involving particle production and annihilation processes.

Therefore, both works have attracted the attention of the academic circles.

Especially the former. Under the economic crisis, all countries and all walks of life have intensified competition and competed with each other. Under such circumstances, how to compete scientifically and effectively is naturally what everyone wants to know.

Xiang Nan's previous "Game Theory", although it provides some theories, is too ethereal and difficult to apply in practice.

Now the advent of this equilibrium theory, especially the introduction of non-cooperative game theory, makes the game theory suddenly have the possibility of practical operation, and naturally it has attracted wide attention.

Princeton University in the United States even invested 500,000 U.S. dollars, hoping that Xiang Nan could go there to give lectures and teach non-cooperative game theory well.

However, Xiang Nan still refused.

Because at the end of the year, Feng Chengcheng had enough credits and was going to take him back to China.

Four years ago, when she was just admitted to university, she already wanted to go back to Hujiang to visit Feng Jingyao. But because it took too much time and energy to go back and forth, she never went back.

Now that she is successful in her studies, she can finally return home.

...

"Cheng Cheng, you and I can go back to China, but I don't plan to stay in China for too long. You must know that my research needs an environment. The domestic scientific research situation is difficult to meet my needs." Xiang Nanxiang Feng Chengcheng said, "So, I will stay for a month or two at most, and then I will consider going to the United States."

Feng Chengcheng nodded.

Xiang Nan's research is all cutting-edge technology. Quantum mechanics, microscopic particles, and astrophysics all require sophisticated technological equipment. There is indeed no such condition in China.

"Wen Qiang, I'm just going home to visit my father and stay with him for a few days." She said, "I'll go to America with you afterwards."

"Okay, then it's a deal." Xiang Nan nodded, "Besides, I don't plan to live in Feng's mansion."

"This..." Feng Chengcheng was a little concerned when he heard it.

"To be honest, your father is a tycoon from Hujiang, and his every move attracts attention. And I am also considered a celebrity, a big tree attracts the wind, and living in Feng's mansion will cause criticism from the outside world." Xiang Nan explained, "Besides, living in Feng Mansion, I will have the feeling of being a door-to-door son-in-law. So I still live in a hotel, which is more comfortable."

"Wen Qiang, he is my father after all." Feng Chengcheng persuaded.

"I know. But what he did is indeed controversial." Xiang Nan nodded, "I don't want to get into such trouble."

He was sure that as long as he went back, Feng Jingyao would find ways to use his reputation, status, and influence to help him gain benefits.

"No, my father wouldn't do that." Feng Chengcheng shook his head.

"Okay then. If he does this, I hope you can stand by my side when the time comes." Xiang Nan suggested.

Feng Chengcheng nodded.

...

Xiang Nan submitted his resignation to Brown University, and then returned to Hujiang by boat with Feng Chengcheng.

After a bumpy journey, the two finally arrived at Hujiang before the Spring Festival in 1932.

Feng Jingyao had received the news a long time ago, and he was overjoyed when he heard that his daughter and Xiang Nan had come back together.

In fact, he has had a very bad life in the past two years.

In 27, the Northern Expeditionary Army entered the Hujiang River. Although they did not break into the concession, Feng Jingyao's power was still affected.

On the one hand, he has never had any contact with the Northern Expeditionary Army, and has always relied on the support of France and Japan. Therefore, the forces of the Northern Expeditionary Army entered the Hujiang River, and the forces of France and Dongying naturally shrank, and even Feng Jingyao's forces also declined because of this.

On the one hand, the Jiangsu and Zhejiang merchants who had a close relationship with the Northern Expeditionary Army had greatly improved their influence in Shanghai and Jiangxi. The representative figure among them is Nie Renwang, who is known as the king of domestic products.

Nie Renwang advocated the development of national industry and the use of domestic products. But Feng Jingyao is a comprador capitalist, buying goods from Japan and France to sell, which is completely contrary to Nie Renwang's philosophy, so naturally he can't urinate in a pot.

However, Nie Renwang not only has money, but also has a good relationship with the government. Even the garrison on the Hujiang River supports him. Therefore, the two tigers are fighting each other, and the pressure on Feng Jingyao's side is really great.

This time when Xiang Nan came back, Feng Jingyao took advantage of his international reputation, status and influence to support himself. Therefore, it can be said that his return was just in time.

...

The ship arrived at Hujiang.

Hujiang's academic, political, and literary circles received the news early, and they all waited at the dock to pick up the ship.

When the ship docked, Xiang Nan and Feng Chengcheng stood on the deck, looking at the thousands of welcome teams below, they couldn't help waving their hands happily.

"Ah, it's really Mr. Xu Wenqiang~"

"Mr. Xu, welcome back to China!"

"Welcome, welcome, warmly welcome~"

Everyone cheered together.

In recent years, Xiang Nan has made amazing achievements in mathematics, physics, and literature. He has brought glory to the country and the nation, and he is the pride of all Chinese people.

That's why so many people came today to pick up the boat for Xiang Nan.

Xiang Nan looked at the bustling crowd, those holding slogans, beating gongs and drums, waving colored balls, lively and vigorous, and couldn't help feeling excited.

No matter how famous he is abroad, he will not receive such grand treatment.

But at this moment, a group of people aggressively pushed the crowd to clear the way, followed by several cars honking their horns, and drove into the pier, causing commotion.

Immediately the car stopped, the door opened, and Feng Jingyao came out.
