Britain was once known as the empire on which the sun never sets, but now its overseas residence is actually dominated by the Japanese. This is simply a shame!
But the situation was stronger than the people. The British mainland was blown up by German bombers that covered the sky. When they were out of breath, what could they do to compete with the ferocious and cruel Japanese?
Riddle felt that he was very unlucky. The former general directors of the public concession board were all very powerful. Even though the Japanese army captured the Shanghai Stock Exchange, they did not fall behind in the negotiations.
But when it was his turn to be the general director, he became a submissive role. Now it has become a symbolic position. Important matters are basically decided by the Japanese. It is too psychologically unbalanced.
"Sir, I feel that you are pessimistic deep in your heart. The situation does not seem to have become so bad. At least Britain is still fighting against Germany tenaciously, and the country has not fallen. Most of China has been occupied by the Japanese army.
Yes." Chen Mingxiang said.
We are now in a cooperative relationship of interest. Chen Mingxiang is transporting military supplies to the United Kingdom. No one knows the future of the concession, but it will be valuable for one day, so it is necessary to talk about some intimate topics.
If Chen Mingxiang pretends to say good things about the Japanese towards this British gentleman who has a strong hatred for Japan and has suffered from being bullied, then there will be no basis for their relationship.
It is said that the essence of a British gentleman is selfishness, and everything should be centered on himself. Chen Mingxiang said this after careful consideration.
"Although Britain and the United States are angry about Japan's aggression against China, due to their own reasons, they are unable to provide more help to China."
"There are various signs that the Japanese army has entered a strategic stalemate stage in China and the mountain city government. It is unable to achieve its scheduled combat goals and is likely to march into Nanyang and Southeast Asia to obtain local oil and gas resources."
"On April 13th last month, Japan and the Soviet Union signed a non-aggression pact between Japan and the Soviet Union, and the Soviet Union recognized Manchukuo. From this time on, the British and American governments knew that war was inevitable, but when exactly would it break out?
It’s still an unknown.”
"In order to warn and deter Japan, the U.S. government has begun preparations to freeze Japanese assets in the United States and impose an embargo on Japan. The British and Dutch governments will also make the same decision, which is expected to be implemented in July."
"But the military resources Japan used to launch the war basically came from the United States and Southeast Asia, cutting off the lifeline Japan relied on for survival. I feel that war is not far away," Riedel said.
As the top manager of a place where he lives in China, and in a Japanese-occupied area, the level of information Riddle obtains is very high. The gap in status allows him to see the current international situation more clearly than Chen Mingxiang.
It is obvious that you, Britain and the United States, allowed Japan to invade China and wanted to lead Japan to attack the Soviet Union. Now that the appeasement policy has been shattered and you see that you are in danger, you are rushing to sanction Japan. What you say is justice and awe-inspiring, and you are angry, angry ass.
!
But what Riddle said revealed an important piece of information: Britain and the United States would impose sanctions on Japan, and the two sides might trigger a war. This was very critical information.
Chen Mingxiang could imagine how excited the commissioner of the Shancheng government would be when he heard the news, which would greatly reduce the pressure on the Shancheng government.
"Now is the time of a world war. No one can predict one's own destiny. Since ordinary people cannot choose this, I think the most important thing is to do everything possible to survive. As long as you are alive, you have hope." Chen Mingxiang said with a smile.
"Your Excellency is right. Perhaps it is this kind of always optimistic attitude that allowed you to wear many hats during the war and become one of the most powerful people in the Shanghai stock market. I hope that we can move around frequently in the future and we will become
Good friends," Riddle said.
He is also paving the way for his future. Once a war breaks out, the concession surrounded by the Japanese army will be one of the first places to be attacked. The safety of him and his family may depend on this person who maintains close relations with the Japanese.
Foreign Affairs Specialist.
To the people of Shanghai City, or to ordinary foreigners in the concession, Chen Mingxiang is an inconspicuous figure. However, people with a certain status know how terrifying the energy hidden behind this young man's deliberately low-key image is.
.
It is extremely rare to hold the Japanese Military Police Headquarters in Shanghai with one hand and the Marine Corps Headquarters in Shanghai with the other. Everyone knows that the Japanese Army and Navy are incompatible.
"Of course, it is also my hope to be able to become friends with the General Director. Serving as the Foreign Affairs Commissioner will also give us more opportunities for contact." Chen Mingxiang said with a smile.
There is no doubt that the higher the status and level, the higher the value of the intelligence you come into contact with. Such international dynamic intelligence cannot be provided by the special agent headquarters, and it is also difficult to access special high-level courses.
Military operations between countries are core secrets of the military. The headquarters of the Japanese army will not be disclosed to small grassroots units such as the Military Police in Shanghai unless cooperation is required.
The top person in charge of the British residence in Shanghai is the best channel to obtain information. In order to protect the safety of overseas people, the concession authorities must communicate frequently with the country. Under this situation, Chen Mingxiang certainly has no objection to deepening contact with Riddell.
Of course, Chen Mingxiang also understands Liddell's small thoughts, which are just to find a way out for the future. If he can continue to provide himself with this international intelligence, if the situation changes, there is no way to help him within the scope of the Shanghai stock market.
questionable.
"Section Chief, we discovered an important situation. Starting from the 1st, someone poured a large amount of counterfeit banknotes into the foreign exchange black market and exchanged them for U.S. dollars, British pounds, and gold at high prices. After investigation, it was found that this was privately manipulated by Li Shiqun, the director of the Secret Service Headquarters."
"The Sugi Agency allocated 10 million counterfeit notes to Southeast Trading Company. He did not use a penny to purchase supplies. Instead, he invested all of it in the black market and made profits by taking advantage of the difference between foreign exchange and legal currency." said Captain Sato, the head of the Special Section 2.
.
The Special High School Course of the Military Police Headquarters in Shanghai is divided into Special First Course and Special Second Course. One is responsible for military intelligence and the other is responsible for economic intelligence. However, the Special Second Course does not work within the Military Police Headquarters, but is scattered in many fake stores.
Japanese companies or other organizations that produce dog meat.
The second class of Special High School had its own insider in the black market. It was normal to use legal currency to exchange for foreign exchange. They did not pay attention to this matter. The counterfeit banknote incident suddenly broke out. The foreign exchange dealers in the black market immediately checked their legal currency and immediately discovered an abnormality.
.
No matter how advanced the technology of the counterfeit banknotes printed by the Japanese is, they still cannot reach the level of 100% simulation. Professionals can find some subtle differences after careful inspection. However, there were no such similar problems before. Even foreign exchange dealers who specialize in exchanging legal currency
