Chapter 1144 Patriotic Industrialist
That was the second time Fang Buwei saved his Chen Haoqiu's life.
It was also that time that completely made Chen Haoqiu and the other party not set their hearts on the ground.
If he was asked to choose between Ma Chunfeng and Fang Buwei, Chen Haoqiu would definitely choose the latter.
This is the first time that Chen Haoqiu has seen that Fang is not willing to assert himself and deceive his superiors and subordinates, but it is not the last time.
There's a bigger ...... to come
Fang Buwei concealed the chairman's committee and joined forces with the Song family to sabotage the Japanese's plan to drive a wedge between them......
With more participation, Chen Haoqiu gradually became familiar with some of the methods that the other party did not do: this bastard, in order to achieve his goal, even his wife and father can be deceived......
Chen Haoqiu had a faint intuition, could this Qi Xisheng be pretended to be Fang Buwei, who was brewing something big.
Anyway, it is absolutely impossible to let him go so easily.
At most, it is prudent not to really destroy Fang Buwei's plan, which is not good.
Thinking of this, Chen Haoqiu calmed down again and went through the information that Liu Geqing heard from beginning to end.
If you want to open a pharmaceutical company in Shanghai, you can't just go through the door of the Japanese.
How big is the Japanese theater now?
It's just the area north of Suzhou Creek, and it was already broken at the time of the Battle of Songhu.
There are a few people in the Hongkou area.
The most prosperous and densely populated areas are also in the French Concession and the Public Concession.
Not to mention relying on the Morishita Chamber of Commerce, even if the current commander-in-chief of the Shanghai Dispatch Army, Shunroku Hata is pulled out, there are many people in the concession who don't buy it.
Chen Haoqiu estimated that if this Qi Xisheng really came to open a pharmaceutical company, it would be impossible not to contact the leading figures in the French Concession and the British and American Concessions.
This is your chance.
"Inform Xu Liu, let him find a way to inquire, did the person on the seventy-sixth ask from the mouth of Nanyang, where is their pharmaceutical company planned to open, and how are they going to open the situation?"
Chen Haoqiu confessed.
It was also his negligence, when he sent Liu Geqing to investigate before, he didn't expect this.
"Okay, I'll go now!" Liu Geqing replied.
With the sound of the door closing, the room fell silent again.
Chen Haoqiu stared in the direction of the door, his eyes shining frighteningly.
……
When he returned to the Peace Hotel, he heard a few of his subordinates tell him about the thrilling process, Fang Buwei coped with it, but he couldn't stop laughing in his heart.
I've never seen the world.
He had long expected that the Japanese would send spies to investigate.
But fortunately, it may have been confessed by the Japanese, and a few of his subordinates did not suffer much.
The US dollars and British pounds brought from Nanyang were also left behind.
Fang Buwei comforted a few of his subordinates, asked them to rest, and then returned to his room.
What a good brother.
When Chen Haoqiu was thinking about Fang Buwei, Fang Buwei was also thinking about him.
After thinking about it, Fang Buwei still didn't dare to send a telegram to Chen Haoqiu with the password of the military commander.
Such a joke cannot be made nonsense, and it may lead to chaos in the military command organization in South China.
Even if it doesn't lead to chaos in the military command in Shanghai, this set of passwords can't be used indiscriminately, otherwise Qi Zhenjiang will have to work hard to formulate a new set.
However, Fang Buwei still turned on the system and listened all night.
Throughout the night, there was no radio station suspected of being a military commander sending a message to the outside world, so Fang Buwei was a little relieved.
At least it shows that Chen Haoqiu has no plans to ask Ma Chunfeng for verification.
While breathing a sigh of relief, Fang Buwei also decided that from today onwards, he would keep an eye on the system, as long as he could find the location of the military command radio, it would naturally be possible to determine Chen Haoqiu's location.
He was going to see what Chen Haoqiu planned first, and then decide how to deal with it.
In addition to this, we can't afford to do business.
Pharmaceutical companies still have to be opened after all.
Fang Buwei couldn't wait for Nakamura to show up.
Early the next morning, Fang Buwei came to Gao Naiyi Road in the French Concession alone.
The Yu Mansion is here.
In addition, Zhang Shaoshuai's mansion is also on this road.
The Zhang Mansion is No. 1, and the Yu Mansion is No. 18.
Visiting Yu Qiaqing was a step that Fang Bu had planned before deciding to come to Shanghai.
When they were in Nanyang a few years ago, Yu Erjun and Hu Wenhu sent telegrams to Yu Qiaqing respectively, mentioning that they would send their cronies to Shanghai to set up a pharmaceutical company.
After arriving in Chongqing, these two called Yu Qiaqing in person, and twice before and after, Yu Qiaqing promised that he would definitely do his best to help.
Chen Haoqiu was not mistaken, if he wanted to do business in Shanghai, it was still a big business, and it would not make much difference if he only followed the path of the Japanese.
But he didn't expect that as soon as this Qi Xisheng looked for a way, he was looking for the top one.
Yu Qiaqing has a lot of titles.
President of the National Chamber of Commerce and Industry, President of the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce, President of the Shanghai Refugee Association, and one of the directors of the Ministry of Industry of the Public Concession......
There are a lot of nicknames: the king of ships, the god of wealth, and the king of charity......
He is also the leader of the Jiangsu-Zhejiang consortium and the chairman of the committee.
Without him, the chairman of the committee would have been killed by Hu Hanmin and Sun Ke in the early days, Wang Jingwei and He Yingqin in the later period.
How can there be any allusion to going into the wild once and twice, but it didn't take long to come back?
In addition to these, he was also the founder of the Shanghai Stock Exchange, and when the chairman was not well-known, he worked as a stock broker on the Shanghai Stock Exchange to raise funds for the revolutionary party.
From this point of view, Yu Qiaqing can be regarded as the originator of China's securities industry.
Either way, it all shows that Yu Qiaqing is one of the most influential people in Shanghai.
Some clues can be seen from the fact that the board of directors of the public concession has named one of the most prosperous streets in the concession after him.
Fang Buwei is also extremely impressed by this.
This man has made a lot of money and has done a lot of things.
There are many deeds such as subsidizing money and transporting rice, and revitalizing refugees, donating money, boats, vehicles, and materials to resist Japan, and even organizing fleets and convoys to transport materials for the national army in the theater.
The most admirable deed is that during the Songhu Anti-Japanese War, the chairman of the committee formulated the "Jiangyin Fortress Shipwreck Plan" for fear that the Japanese army would go up the river and capture Nanjing.
After this person found out, without saying a word, he drove nearly 1,000 steamships, oil tankers and wooden ships in the shipyard under his name to Jiangyin Fortress and sank them all......
Unfortunately, the river was too deep, and the ship either sank to the bottom or was washed downstream, and the plan eventually went bankrupt.
But his contributions, as well as his courage to not blink a brow when the ship was sunk, have always been remembered by future generations.
Fang Buwei believes that this is a veritable patriotic industrialist.
He made a special trip to visit Yu Qiaqing because Yu Qiaqing was one of the directors of the British and American concessions, and he had an unparalleled influence in Shanghai.
