This commendation meeting was really lively, and all the meritorious personnel received awards and bonuses!
Especially Commissioner Chai Youyi, Chai, was high-spirited and proud.
It was Meng Baifeng who personally gave him the certificate and bonus.
This is a great honor.
After receiving an award, it is natural to give an acceptance speech. This has been the case since ancient times.
Chai Youyi was well prepared and asked his secretary to bring him a thick stack of speech notes, which he really talked about endlessly.
From Wang Jingwei to Chen Gongbo and Meng Baifeng, in short, he thanked all the senior officials of the puppet regime.
I am afraid that if I miss one, it will have a great impact on my career.
He kept talking nonsense there, and the people listening yawned, but they couldn't interrupt him.
Chai Youyi had made up his mind to talk about it, so how could he give up so easily?
After thanking everyone one by one, he actually started to talk about the detailed process of his arrest of Jiang Dalu.
Unexpectedly, Meng Baifeng's face began to look ugly.
"Hold on."
Chai Youyi was getting excited when Meng Baifeng suddenly interrupted him.
Chai Youyi was startled.
Then he saw Meng Baifeng walking to the loudspeaker and pushing Chai Youyi aside:
"You are all political and business dignitaries and social celebrities from Suzhou and other places. You are already hungry when you come here. You might as well have a celebration banquet first, then perform a meritorious dance, and then listen to Commissioner Chai's great achievements!"
"well!"
A round of cheers and applause.
Everyone just felt that Dean Meng was still considerate.
Wonderful person!
Chai Youyi looked embarrassed.
Who the hell would listen to his own speech after having had enough wine and food, and then dancing?
But he couldn't afford to offend the Dean Meng in front of him.
"What do Commissioner Chai think?" Meng Baifeng turned around and asked.
"Very good, very good." Commissioner Chai didn't know how to describe the expression on his face.
…
Meng Shaoyuan finally had a chance to be alone with his father.
The two beauties beside Meng Baifeng are naturally Liya and Ruan Jingyun.
This dad is always blessed to have these two beauties by his side.
Meng Baifeng glanced at Wu Jingyi: "Hey, daughter-in-law, why are you here too?"
Every time he saw Wu Jingyi, he always said "daughter-in-law."
Every time she yelled like this, Wu Jingyi was filled with joy and felt that her father-in-law was much more reliable than her own man.
"Mr. Meng..."
As soon as Wu Jingyi opened her mouth, she was interrupted by Meng Baifeng: "You will call me daddy from now on."
Wu Jingyi's face turned red.
In any case, Meng Shaoyuan didn't marry him, so he couldn't say "Dad" out loud.
Meng Baifeng probably saw Wu Jingyi's thoughts and said disapprovingly: "My son didn't invite me when he got married, and I didn't drink my daughter-in-law's tea. There were a lot of women around him, they were messy and gaudy, but I was the most pleasing to the eye. It’s still you. Without a marriage contract, you can’t call me daddy? Just call me daddy, and I’ll break the legs of anyone who disobeys!”
"But...it's better to do it later..."
In Wu Jingyi's heart, she still wanted to give Master Meng some face. Otherwise, where would Cai Xuefei, whom he is clearly marrying, be placed?
Meng Shaoyuan was so embarrassed.
What does "messiness and bells and whistles" mean?
You call this the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked.
"My upper beam is also crooked and the lower beam is crooked." Unexpectedly, Meng Baifeng actually said it himself: "I can't help it. I haven't learned the good things in me, but I have learned all the bad things about lust. My daughter-in-law, You suffered."
Meng Shaoyuan coughed several times: "Dad, District Chief Wu is here to rectify his thoughts and arrange his work. As for me..."
"You have a bullshit thing." Meng Baifeng interrupted him unceremoniously: "Aren't you just here for the bullshit Qingxiang?"
Dear father, please give your son some face.
Meng Shaoyuan bit the bullet and explained his general plan for coming to Suzhou this time.
With Dad here, it will be much easier to implement this plan.
"Xinghan." Meng Baifeng suddenly sighed: "Why do you go back as you live longer?"
Um? What's the meaning?
"You are telling me that you are, after all, the director of the Supervision Division of the Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai provinces of the Military Command Bureau, and the commander-in-chief of the Loyalty and National Salvation Army of the three provinces. You have hundreds of thousands of troops at your disposal. How come you have become so petty?"
When Meng Baifeng taught his son a lesson, he didn't give any face at all: "You are Pan Tianhu, a public enemy of Japan, and the most powerful agent on the surface. You came to Suzhou in person just for such a bullshit plan?"
This, this is some bullshit plan?
Meng Shaoyuan had planned long ago to take advantage of Chai Youyi's character of being happy with great achievements and set up a trap to trick him into thinking that a detachment of the Loyalty and Salvation Army was about to surrender, so that he could get a large number of weapons from him.
Then, when he enthusiastically invited people from all walks of life to prepare for surrender, he made a huge fool of himself under the gaze of the news media.
In this way, the Qingxiang Movement became a joke.
Meng Shaoyuan planned every step.
But in the eyes of his own father, this plan is fucking worthless!
"Mr. Meng." Wu Jingyi also said carefully: "Shaoyuan told me about this plan, and I think it is feasible. If this plan is successful, it can greatly damage the prestige of the so-called Qingxiang Committee, and it can also..."
"Daughter-in-law." Meng Baifeng interrupted them for the third time: "The Qingxiang Movement was jointly formulated by Wang Jingwei and the Japanese. It is their top priority. If you do this, their prestige will indeed be affected. It has become a laughing stock in China, but there is a better way, which is to basically make most people stay away from the Qingxiang Movement."
Meng Shaoyuan also became interested: "What about?"
"For example..." Meng Baifeng said slowly: "Light up Suzhou!"
"puff"!
Meng Shaoyuan almost spat out.
Just revive the state?
Are you kidding me?
On January 18, 1940, he returned to Suzhou.
This also led to the supreme commander of the Japanese army in Suzhou, Ichiro Moriki, to be directly transferred out of Suzhou.
That time, Meng Shaoyuan carefully planned and mobilized a lot of power to achieve it.
That time, my good brother Yue Zhenchuan was still alive!
But now?
The Japanese army has learned the lesson from the last time and will be more defensive.
How can it be so easy to succeed?
"You conquered Suzhou once, can't you conquer it a second time?"
Meng Baifeng said nonchalantly: "The significance and influence of the second light on Suzhou will be even more profound. I know you have no plan, and I have no plan, but isn't this plan made by humans?"
"You've given me a big problem."
Meng Shaoyuan murmured.
"Think slowly, don't rush."
Not in a hurry?
You can’t stay in Suzhou forever, right?
"Suzhou is like a big fish pond, with all kinds of fish swimming in it." Meng Baifeng said calmly: "You have to catch these fish one by one. You need bait, which your enemy can't refuse." Bait!”
