Young geniuses are beginning to show their edge.
1888 1 29th, Gu Weijun was born in Jiading, Jiangsu. At that time, it was the Guangxu period, and the name was Shaochuan.
As the old saying goes, "Take it by surprise, then break it." Gu Weijun has been dealing with diplomacy all his life, and he also has extraordinary talent and confidence in this respect. 1904, 16-year-old Gu Weijun was admitted to Columbia University to study diplomacy and international law, and successfully obtained a doctorate from Columbia University.
After Gu Weijun returned to China in 19 12, the Beiyang government paid enough attention to him and treated him well. He has served as President Yuan Shikai's secretary, secretary, adviser to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and member of the Constitution Drafting Committee. Later, he was appointed Prime Minister of the Republic of China, Ambassador of the National Government to France and Britain, Chief Representative to the United Nations, Ambassador to the United States and Vice President of The Hague International Court of Justice.
Talented diplomatic legend
Later, the Beiyang government sent him to various countries to serve as the minister of Beiyang government in various countries. It can also be seen that the Beiyang government attaches importance to him and attaches importance to his diplomatic talents and talents. As we all know, the political situation in modern China is changeable, and ups and downs are common. However, no matter how the political situation changes, Gu Weijun's position in China's political and diplomatic circles will not waver, and all authorities will treat him with courtesy.
At that time in the last century, China was at home and abroad, so it was difficult for us to speak out for China's sovereign rights and interests under such circumstances. But under such circumstances, Gu Weijun still wrote a legendary story of "weak country diplomacy" with his own strength! Especially in the Paris Peace Conference of 19 19, China was treated unreasonably as a victorious country.
Gu Weijun delivered an impassioned speech: "Confucius in the East is like Jesus in the West, and Shandong, the birthplace of Confucius, is like Jerusalem in the East. Therefore, China can't give up Shandong just as the West can't lose Jerusalem and withdraw from the cold! " This remark also caused a fierce sensation and won the support and respect of many other countries for China. Gu Weijun was also the first to say "No!" Pay tribute to the great powers at such an important meeting. Our diplomat is the first person to let the western countries give him a thumbs-up from the heart!
Gu Weijun in marriage.
Gu Weijun is one of the brightest stars in the diplomatic circle in the history of the Republic of China and even the whole history of China. At the same time, his private life is also extremely rich. His peach blossom, like his career in the diplomatic field, has been married four times in his life.
At the age of twelve, she was engaged to Zhang Runruo, the daughter of her father's colleague. However, this kind of marriage is just an arranged marriage in feudal society, which does not conform to the avant-garde Gu Weijun's concept. The marriage he longed for was a free and equal marriage. But my father's life was hard to disobey, so I had to marry Miss Zhang.
But Gu Weijun didn't give up chasing his true love. He is very polite to Miss Zhang. He has never shared a room in his husband and wife life for more than a year, and he has no wild desires. A year later, he formally divorced Zhang Run. Later, when writing a memoir, Gu Weijun recalled this marriage and said, "She is a simple, kind, tolerant and patient woman."
Gu Weijun's second marriage originated from his diplomatic career. During his visit to the United States, Tang, then Prime Minister of Beiyang Government, took a fancy to his talent at first sight and invited him to be the president's secretary, so they became attached. Later, Tang resigned angrily because of disagreement with Yuan Shikai's political views. Surprisingly, Gu Weijun followed Tang Shao's resignation and embarked on his official career to pursue this Bole. At this time, Tang suggested to be a diplomat and show his talents. Later, Tang introduced his daughter Tang, hoping that he could become his son-in-law. Unexpectedly, the two met after they met, and it didn't take long for them to get married formally. However, it backfired. I didn't expect Tang to die of illness, which was a great blow.
Gu Weijun's third marriage was with Huang's daughter, whose family was rich and very rich. Gu Weijun came across a photo of Huang Huilan and went after it. Later, they got married. It's just that their relationship was not stable after all, and finally they parted ways.
Belated true love
During the meeting with his fourth wife, Yan Youyun, Gu Weijun was really in a bad situation. At this time, Gu Weijun, who was in his later years, lived alone in the United States and lived on his own savings. At this time, Yan Youyun also lived in the United States with the help of MacArthur. Plus we've met before, and we're in constant contact. In the long run, the two became acquainted.
So in 1959, Gu Weijun, 7 1 year-old, married Yan Youyun, 54. After the marriage, Yan Youyun also took good care of Gu Weijun's life and dedicated everything to him. Of course, Gu Weijun is particularly enthusiastic about Yan Youyun. He said more than once that Yan Youyun is his true love.
She arranged the details of Gu Weijun's life in his later years, which was also very helpful to his health. When talking about his health-keeping secrets, Gu Weijun said: "My health-keeping methods are only three points: walking, eating less snacks and taking care of my wife." We can also see the importance of Yan Youyun to Gu Weijun's life and their affection. She plays the role of housekeeper, nurse and secretary in Gu Weijun's life.
An indispensable legend.
Gu Weijun's career can be summed up as a legend. He is an indelible star in the diplomatic history of modern China. He dedicated everything at that time to China, traveled around the world, and strived for all the benefits that China deserved. He is the young boy who dares to say that he refuses to sign in front of western powers. As a poem says, "Young and thin in spring, riding on a bridge, tea is full of tricks." His contribution to the diplomatic circle is even a little thin, and his biography is a modern diplomatic history of China.
Chen once played in the movie My 19 19, and that impassioned speech aroused the blood of countless people! In his later years, Gu Weijun became famous. Without that chivalry, he enjoys a dull life with peace of mind and lives a healthy and leisurely life under the care of his wife.
Therefore, some people always say that "Gu Weijun's life is the dream of all men!"
