Eight hundred and twentieth chapters follow the trend

After having lunch at Zhou Fahai's house, he still had to go to work, so Chen Mingxiang took the car back to his residence, and the car from Dingmo Village was already waiting outside the door.
The dignified Chief Secretary of Police has no business, the dignified members of the Standing Committee of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the Minister of Transport and the Minister of Social Affairs are all idle and uncomfortable. They are all lords with no real power. We arranged to have tea and chat at home.
When Chen Mingxiang got out of the car, he was carrying two exquisitely crafted wooden boxes, made of rosewood. Not to mention, Zhou Fahai was the number one person after all, and he was not that unscrupulous in his work. He received two million China Reserve Certificates. This time
The return gifts were also very heavy. A pair of Yuan blue and white porcelain vases and a pair of Tang Dynasty calligraphy were definitely worth a lot of money.
"When you came to Jinling, you didn't even think about sitting in the office of the Police Department?" Ding Mocun said with a smile.
"I had no intention of going to the Yamen this time. Each of the three deputy directors had their own agenda. I heard that they were performing a big show every day and it was a mess. I was upset when I saw them. If things go well, I might arrive in the afternoon.
I will report to Chairman Wang’s office in the Executive Yuan, and they will know that I am here.”
"I don't want to get involved in the internal fighting of the Police Department. This is also common sense in the officialdom. If there is no conflict among subordinates, how can the superiors balance it? But if they don't abide by the rules of the game, it will be contempt for me. The future Secretary of Police will not
There will no longer be chairs for them, and there are many people who are equivalent to deputy directors." Chen Mingxiang said.
He was originally the Police Secretary as a part-time job and had never thought about making personnel adjustments. Moreover, he had been working in Shanghai for a long time and did not have a qualified staff reserve. If the deputy director was to be replaced, there really would be no suitable candidates.
, this depends on seniority.
But things are different now. Now that we have taken action, we must reap the fruits of victory. If the Secretary of Police begins to take power, this cake cannot be taken by just anyone. He will not engage in loss-making business.
It's not impossible to eat if you want, but the prerequisite is that I must let you eat it. It's hard. Even if you have a mouth full of broken teeth, don't even think about taking advantage!
In Chen Mingxiang's heart, it doesn't matter which faction the deputy director belongs to, and he has no people of his own. The key is whether he can understand what he wants and obey the instructions honestly.
"You want to report to Chairman Wang?" Ding Mocun asked in surprise.
This is not to say that he looks down on Chen Mingxiang, but the rules in officialdom are strict, and it is definitely not easy to report to Wang Jingwei's office.
Even if he is a member of the Central Standing Committee and a member of the core decision-making team, only a few people such as Zhou Fahai, Chen Gongbo, and Chu Minyi can see him at any time. Of course, Li Shiqun, who ranks first among the feudal officials, also has such qualifications.
A powerless minister like Ding Mocun must make an appointment in advance if he wants to report on his work. Speaking of which, if he is not attending meetings of the Central Standing Committee or the Military Commission, he has no chance to meet Wang Jingwei on weekdays, unless he is granted permission.
Summoned.
Chen Mingxiang's level is definitely not low. The special officer level is the highest level in the government department. The police secretary is equivalent to the minister and is qualified to interview Wang Jingwei.
But his Police Department is just empty-handed. If anything happens in the department, it only needs to be reported to Minister of the Interior Chen Qun. There is really no need to alarm the No. 1 figure in the Jinling government.
Besides, Chen Mingxiang was backed by the Japanese Military Police Headquarters in Shanghai and the Marine Corps Headquarters in Shanghai. He was also Chen Gongbo’s close confidant. It was taboo for him to get close to Wang Jingwei.
"Brother, don't think too much. The purpose of my report this time is to give the Police Department some power from the Japanese. If I want to be famous, I must have the diplomatic authority granted to me by the Executive Yuan. Otherwise, the name will not be justified."
"Shun, how can I, a director, be qualified to negotiate with the Japanese?" Chen Mingxiang said.
Hearing Chen Mingxiang express his thoughts, Ding Mocun couldn't help but feel envious. The Japanese consultants in the Jinling government police system were all dispatched by secret service agencies from all over the country. They were actually controlled by the Mei agency, while the police station's operations were controlled by the Mei agency.
The command power is in the hands of the Japanese Military Police Headquarters in Shanghai. Chen Mingxiang has a good relationship with both parties, and there is indeed hope that this matter can be accomplished.
While we were chatting, the phone at home rang. It was Zhou Fahai. He wanted Chen Mingxiang to come to Wang Jingwei's office in the Executive Yuan immediately.
"Chairman Wang will never let go of any opportunity to increase the power of the Jinling government. Brother, maybe what happened this time will make you favored by Chairman Wang, and you will make further progress from now on." Ding Mocun said with a smile.
"Forget it, being the Chief of Police has exceeded my expectations. The water in the pool at the top is murky and deep. They are plotting against each other all day long. I'm not used to such an environment. It's better to just do business and make money honestly. This way
Living a more comfortable life, in fact, I am also following the trend. When the general environment changes, I will change accordingly." Chen Mingxiang said.
The conversation lasted for more than an hour. Wang Jingwei was very considerate. Also present were Finance Minister Zhou Fahai, Foreign Minister Chu Minyi, Propaganda Minister Lin Baisheng, Interior Minister Chen Qun and Deputy Secretary-General Chen Chunpu. The lineup was very strong.
Shows importance to this matter.
Zhou Fahai first introduced the ins and outs of the matter. The general meaning was that when Chen Mingxiang applied for funds for the Police Department from the Ministry of Finance, he also proposed the idea of taking back some rights in the police system from the May Agency and the Shanghai Military Police Headquarters, because the financial rights included
Part of it involves the cooperation of the Ministry of Finance.
He felt that there was a possibility of operation, so he made a special trip to report to Chairman Wang and invited everyone to come and discuss it together. If you have any questions, ask Chen Mingxiang, and Chen Mingxiang is responsible for answering them.
It stands to reason that the first person Chen Mingxiang, the Police Secretary, should report to the Minister of Interior Chen Qun when encountering major matters, but since the Ministry of Finance is involved, there is nothing wrong with informal communication.
You guys are a bunch of bastards, but you are all sitting down, and I am the only one standing to answer questions!
Chen Mingxiang answered the questions of the Central Standing Committee members one by one, and then was asked to wait outside. Half an hour later, Chen Qun came out and told him that Chairman Wang agreed in principle to this measure, and that a meeting of the Central Standing Committee would be held tomorrow morning to study it, and he could respond
The family is waiting for news.
This meant there was no problem. Chen Mingxiang went to the headquarters of the Military Advisory Group that night and paid a visit to the head of the agency, Lieutenant General Matsui Tairo. This matter must be approved by him.
"Your Excellency, General, New Year's Day is coming soon. Thank you for your support and help to me since you took office as the top military adviser. This is a small kindness from me. Please be sure to accept it." Chen Mingxiang said with a smile.
"Mr. Chen, you are so polite. Such a heavy gift, but you still call it a small thought. I deserve it. Please have tea!" Matsui Tataro said with satisfaction.
On the surface, the box contained wild ginseng and deer antlers, but in fact there was a "gift" of one hundred thousand dollars. Chen Mingxiang gave it naturally, and Matsui Tataro accepted it happily. If it happens the first time, there will be a second time. This kind of thing will happen a second time.
