Chapter 864 863 [Transactions Between Chinese and Jews]

Zhou Hexuan's exposure of the Nanjing Massacre quickly caused a sensation in American society because the content was so horrifying.

The next morning, Zhou Hexuan received a private invitation and went to William Paley's home for afternoon tea.

William Paley is the boss of CBS, and his father is an American tobacco tycoon. Ten years ago, someone was trying to sell a loss-making broadcasting company to his father. His father generously spent $400,000 to buy it and then gave it to his son to play with as he pleased.

In just a few years, this broadcasting company, which was on the verge of bankruptcy, became the second largest broadcasting company in the United States. This is the origin of CBS.

Why did William Paley invite Zhou Hexuan to dinner?

Because the Paley family is also Jewish, William Paley's grandfather was a Russian Jew who immigrated to the United States after being persecuted by the Tsar.

William Paley was always paying attention to the situation in Germany. Even when Germany annexed Austria, he sent many reporters to interview him, and he knew the situation in Germany better than anyone else.

"Hi, Mr. Zhou, hello!" William Paley smiled.

"Hello, Mr. Paili." Zhou Hexuan shook hands and said.

William Paley took the initiative to move a chair for Zhou Hexuan: "Please sit down, what would you like?"

"Whatever." Zhou Hexuan said.

William Paley asked the maid to bring tea and said politely: "I personally admire Mr. Zhou's academic achievements very much, and at the same time I deeply sympathize with China's situation."

Zhou Hexuan said: "Thank you."

William Paley said: "Jews and Chinese are both excellent ethnic groups, and excellence will inevitably suffer jealousy and persecution."

Zhou Hexuan said: "Mr. Perry, if you have anything to say, please just say it."

"The Chinese and the Jews should help each other," William Paley said. "Warner Bros. Pictures is willing to show the Nanjing Massacre documentary in their theaters."

"That's great, thank you very much." Zhou Hexuan said sincerely.

Regarding the Holocaust documentary, Zhou Hexuan originally asked Chaplin to help distribute it. Now that Warner Bros. is willing to help, it will be smoother and the number of theaters can be greatly increased.

The four Warner brothers are all Jewish and Polish Jewish immigrants.

More than ten years ago, when the Jewish community was not recognized by mainstream American society, Warner Bros. dared to produce and distribute "The Jazz Singer." This is a film made by Jews, telling a Jewish story, and 100% aimed at a Jewish audience.

To put it bluntly, it was filmed to rectify the name of American Jews.

Sam Warner, one of the four brothers, died while personally overseeing the filming of the film. The other three brothers did not attend the premiere on the day of the release because they had to attend their brother's funeral.

As a result, "The Jazz Singer" was a great success in the United States, indicating that Jews have been widely accepted by American society.

William Paley smiled and said: "People who are suffering should help each other."

Zhou Hexuan understood clearly that when the other party said "help", he added "mutual". This was another exchange of interests.

Zhou Hexuan couldn't help but ask: "Can CBS and Warner Bros. represent the Jewish community in the United States?"

"Being able to represent the majority, we have always been very united," William Paley revealed. "Today, right now, I not only represent myself, but also the American Jewish community. We need publicity and international help, just like China People need the same thing.”

The Jewish unity is partly due to religious tradition, and the other half is forced out.

Take the American Jews, for example. Because they were persecuted in Europe, they immigrated to the United States with their families and their families. They were initially ostracized by the Puritans like the Chinese. It was not until the 1830s that the United States embarked on a major infrastructure construction project, and the Jewish community took the opportunity to develop.

At that time, except for the wealthy Rothschild family, other American Jews had to rely on the Puritans to live their lives.

Then came the American Civil War, and American Jews made another windfall. During the war, Jews became high-ranking officials in the United States for the first time, gradually forming Jewish families and Jewish conglomerates. But facing the WASPs in the United States, they were still in a weak position. The Jews who got rich first quickly formed alliances through marriage.

Due to the impact of World War I, the Rothschild family was in twilight. The Jewish conglomerates in the United States also suffered heavy losses during the Great Depression. Goldman Sachs lost its pants (92% of its original shares evaporated). Although Lehman Brothers was not so miserable, they were still slowly licking their wounds and recovering.

The 1930s was a moment of extreme weakness for American Jews, and it was also a moment when they were about to explode.

Although Roosevelt was a WASP in the traditional sense and was supposed to be against Jews, he cooperated very happily with the American Jewish Foundation. During Roosevelt's most difficult time, it was the Jewish consortium that extended a helping hand. Otherwise, why was his Treasury Secretary a Jew?

During the Roosevelt administration, WASPs in the United States were severely suppressed, and the Jews took advantage of the opportunity to reap many benefits.

This is a bit similar to our Mr. Trump. Although he is a WASP through and through, he has strong support from the Jewish consortium behind him. Trump’s daughters are all converted to Judaism, and the only ones that supported Trump during the election were the Jewish media – Murdoch spent all his efforts on this.

In sharp contrast, Ao Guanhai, a black president, has WASP white values.

You must know that the black movement was able to rise and ultimately win because of the funding provided by Jewish consortiums. There were many black people among the Jews who claimed to be descendants of King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba. The Jewish consortium used black people to launch the civil rights movement and quickly penetrated into the top political circles of the United States.

Unexpectedly, I didn't expect that this black guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes would actually find a traitor - who would let Ao Guanhai have two ancestors of the British royal family.

Well, the ancestor of the Bush family is King Charles II of England, and the ancestor (maternal line) of Clinton is King Henry III of England. Speaking of which, the presidents of the United States are all relatives. Even if they are not relatives, they have to make up relatives. WASP has a group of genealogy experts who specialize in this.

Ever since the Jewish consortium launched the civil rights movement, the blue-blood aristocracy in the United States has been in complete chaos, and even black people have been admitted into it without hesitation.

In the past, they only accepted white elites. The real rise of the Bush family was after their marriage to the financial tycoon Walker. Therefore, whenever Bush becomes president, their surname is not "Bush", but "Walker Bush".

Anyway, it’s very confusing. When the Jews were clamoring for civil rights, the Democratic Party, which represented the interests of the Jews, introduced a black president. It turned out that this black president had some WASP values. After the Jews gained notoriety during the 2008 financial crisis, the Republican Party, which represented the interests of WASPs, launched Trump, but this Trump actually had the support of a large Jewish consortium.

What exactly is inside is so convoluted that outsiders can’t figure it out even if they scratch their heads.

Let’s not ramble. Anyway, in one sentence, American Jews before World War II were extremely weak. At the same time, they also invested a lot of political capital, only to be harvested slowly during and after the war.

William Paley told the truth: "We can only persuade the president to withdraw the ambassador to Germany, but we cannot even sever diplomatic relations with Germany. The anti-Semitic atmosphere at the top of the U.S. government is very strong, and it is likely that a policy to restrict Jewish immigration will be introduced. Therefore, We want to cooperate with you, Mr. Zhou, and the Chinese government behind you."

"How to cooperate?" Zhou Hexuan was very interested.

William Paley said: "We can provide commercial loans to the Chinese government in exchange for the Chinese government to designate Jewish refugee resettlement areas. And Mr. Zhou, you need to exercise your own influence and campaign for the Jews. Well, we will provide you with 30 yuan per year. Ten thousand US dollars in publicity funds, of course, this number is still negotiable.”

"I'll think about it, and I need to contact the Chinese government first." Zhou Hexuan did not agree immediately.

The Jews are not that innocent, and there is a reason why Germany is anti-Semitic. Jewish businessmen did too much in post-war Germany. The reason Zhou Hexuan didn't say this on the radio was just because he didn't want to offend the Jews. Now asking him to make positive publicity for the Jews will definitely arouse dissatisfaction in mainstream American society.

William Paley was just a mouthpiece, and he had no power to make the decision. He smiled and said: "The status of Chinese in the United States is not high. We can help call for the abolition of the Chinese Exclusion Act."

"Really?" Zhou Hexuan's eyes lit up.

William Paley nodded and said: "Of course, it's just an appeal. Whether it can succeed or not is hard to guarantee. But we can help with public opinion propaganda, and cooperate with the documentary of the Nanjing Massacre to exaggerate the misery of the Chinese people, so that the American people can sympathize with the Chinese, and set off a wave of acceptance. Chinese sports. What do you think?"

Zhou Hexuan pursed his lips and smiled: "Deal."
