This kind of clothes is named after our revolutionary leader, Dr. Sun Yat-sen. After he appeared in the public eye, Dr. Sun Yat-sen spent most of his time wearing this kind of clothes to attend various activities and run for the China revolution. So later people named this kind of clothes as Zhongshan suit.
After the success of the Northern Expedition, the promotion of Chinese tunic suit as a national costume was put on the agenda. In fact, most government officials supported this proposal at that time. However, in the process of promoting the Zhongshan suit as a national costume, many ridiculous things happened.
Speaking of the reason, it was because the senior leaders at that time wanted to recommend the Zhongshan suit as the uniform of civil servants. Because domestic products were respected at that time, textile mills all over the country had a large number of orders for Zhongshan suits. After this kind of clothes sell well, ordinary people will be miserable, because the production technology and fabric of Zhongshan suit are very particular, and ordinary people and civil servants simply can't afford it.
At that time, to make a tunic suit, you had to earn at least 265,438+10,000 yuan, while the average monthly salary of middle and lower civil servants was only 900,000 yuan, which caused many people trouble. There was a famous tragedy at that time, saying that a civil servant took out all the money from his mother's ancestral home to treat his wife in order to save face in front of others, and the purpose of making a Chinese tunic suit was only to scold and win colleagues who wore American Chinese tunic suits. This incident can be said to be amazing, but it also makes people feel very sad.
At that time, in order to promote this national costume, there was another very excessive thing, that is, in a school, the traditional costume worn by the hanging Confucius statue was replaced by a Zhongshan suit. It was once hotly debated by people at that time.
