Chapter 511: A Complicated Workplace

"Shigeru Goto Gendarmerie Nakasa, General Kinoshita's former old subordinate, succeeded me after the New Year, not only as the chief of the special high section of the military police headquarters, but also as the deputy chief of police and the chief of the criminal special high division of the Public Concession Police."

"I don't know what kind of deal General Kinoshita made with the Consulate General, maybe it was to let Chen Mingxiang work part-time on the territory of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, now you know why you can't move him, right?" Lin Shaozuo said with a wry smile.

"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is mainly responsible for foreign policy strategy and policy guidance, and the special high school department manages the affairs of the country's expatriates, and also has the responsibility of collecting intelligence and supervising the army's intelligence agencies. Nanzao Yunzi said that he could not understand.

It is easy to understand that the army and navy are using Chen Mingxiang's ability to smuggle strategic materials to provide assistance in military operations, but what is the Ministry of Foreign Affairs optimistic about him?

"Don't forget that Chen Mingxiang is in charge of foreign affairs in the Shanghai Special City Government, and he is now a confidant of Chen Gongbo, a member of the Standing Committee of the Jinling Government, President of the Legislative Council, Minister of Military and Political Training, and Mayor of the Shanghai Special City Government."

"Chen Gongbo is the No. 2 person in the Jinling government, who has lived in Shanghai for a long time, and the strategy of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs should be to communicate with Wang Jingwei and Zhou Gaohai by the embassy, and Chen Gongbo by the consulate general in Shanghai.

"Besides, Chen Mingxiang is a talent selected by His Excellency Akagi Qinzhi, and he was specially appointed as an assistant, the assistant director of the Police Department of the Ministry of Public Concession and the Ministry of Industry, which is equivalent to joining the agency of the Consulate General in Shanghai's Special High Police Division, and this promotion is not unusual at all." Lin Shaozuo said.

The cleverness of Yunzi in the south was also a little dizzy by these relationships, it was too complicated, I didn't expect that the appointment of Chen Mingxiang would involve so many things behind it.

The Special High School is the first institution of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and its full name is the Special High Police Division, which is subordinate to the consulate police stations in various places and is also under the management of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, so it is a dual management, and all the police are dispatched from Tokyo.

However, with the extension of the war, the gendarmerie in various places also set up special high schools, but the nature was completely different, one belonged to the police system of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the other belonged to the army gendarmerie system.

The Consulate Police Department manages Japanese nationals in the occupied areas, registers births, deaths, and family registers, handles criminal cases against foreigners, and monitors the ideological dynamics of Japanese nationals.

The similarity between the two special high schools is that they both have the duties of banning anti-Japanese words and deeds, collecting intelligence, sabotaging anti-Japanese organizations, monitoring the words and deeds of puppet governments, and luring local high-ranking officials.

However, because of the overlapping functions, the special high section of the gendarmerie often played a leading role in the work of gathering intelligence, sabotaging anti-Japanese organizations, and luring down high-ranking enemy officials, while the special high section of the consulate was an auxiliary, and the workload was heavier internally.

Nanzao Yunzi, who was in a bad mood, left early without waiting for the end of the drinking party, and the old subordinate of Major General Kinoshita Eichi came to Shanghai to serve as the chief of the special high section of the military police headquarters, which was definitely a bad news for her, and the commander didn't like her very much.

Originally, I thought that with the great increase in the strength of the special high class, with the support of Lin Shaozuo behind her, coupled with the support of General Ying Zuo, she would change the current embarrassing situation, and completely turn around smoothly, and let the high-level see her ability.

As a result, as soon as her big ship raised its sails, a hurricane blew off the mast, causing the big ship to turn around on the sea, and it just couldn't find its direction!

"Chen Jun, I will go to the Consulate General in Shanghai tomorrow morning, His Excellency the Consul General wants to meet you, this is a major opportunity for you!" Oka Qisheng said with a smile and raised his glass to Chen Mingxiang.

Chen Mingxiang's latest appointment is directly related to his strong recommendation, and he is the top person in charge of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the public concession.

Actually, or it should be said that it has a lot to do with Akagi kinyuki, although this senior police official of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has been assassinated, but the Akagi family is a samurai family in Japan, and its influence is very large, and Akagi kinyuki has a very high status in the family, otherwise he would not have become a baron in Japan.

In the eyes of ordinary people, even if Chen Mingxiang is favored by Akagi, he is still a Chinese, and he is not related to the Akagi family in Japan at all, what is this saying?

This is a strategy of officialdom, in order to be able to use the power of the Akagi family, Oka Qi Katsuo has to make a look of respecting the last wishes of Akagi's relatives, not only to promote Chen Mingxiang, who was optimistic about him before his death, to the assistant director of the police department, but also to continue to help Chen Mingxiang continue to be promoted.

Such an attitude will inevitably be transmitted back to Japan through some channels, and it will inevitably be recognized by the Akagi family, and the relationship between the two sides will be pulled in a lot, therefore, Chen Mingxiang is not a key factor, in the final analysis, it is the reason for Akagi's kinship.

Complicated, right? It seems to be very complicated, but in fact, it is just like that, only you can't think of it, and no one else can't do it!

"Chen Jun, I invite you to come over today, it is also a conversation before the important appointment, you are the elite of the police department of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Industry named by His Excellency Akagi, and now it should be called the Ministry of Police, and our Consulate General in Shanghai is very optimistic about you."

"After the occupation of the public concession by the imperial army, the personnel structure of the Ministry of Industry Bureau needs to be adjusted somewhat, and after careful consideration, we have decided to co-opt you as the new director of the Ministry of Industry Bureau, and appoint you as the deputy general office of the President's Office of the Board of Directors of the Ministry of Industry."

"Your role will be to handle important tasks such as armor protection, policing and personnel in the Public Concession area, and as the Director of Public Works, you will be responsible for road works, plumbing and ditching, construction and land approvals in the Public Concession."

"The original Police Department of the Ministry of Public Concession has been changed to the Police Department, and it has been decided to appoint you as the Executive Deputy Governor of the Police Department, and the relationship between you and the Military Police Command and the Marine Corps Command is known to everyone, and you will serve as the inspector of the Criminal Special High Division, and be in charge of the Criminal Affairs Department." Consul General in Shanghai Horiuchi Yucheng said.

It sounds like a long list of positions, but it seems that he has become the core figure of the Ministry of Industry and Bureau in an instant, and he has real power in his hands, which is like pie in the sky.

But Chen Mingxiang knows that at most, he has a long list of titles, or many salaries, and he has no bullshit power in his hands, how can the Japanese really give power to the Chinese, isn't that a joke?

"Thank you Consul General and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for your trust, and I will do a good job in communicating with the Consulate General and the municipal government, be an assistant to His Excellency Katsuo Okaki, carry out His Excellency Akagi's last wishes, and make the greatest efforts for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to play in Shanghai." Chen Mingxiang said.
