Ren Zuren carefully led Xie Xuan to the largest private room on the second floor of the Nanjing Hotel. He did not dare to go in. He only opened the door outside and made a "please" gesture to Xie Xuan.
Xie Xuan nodded slightly and walked in from Ren Zuren.
Ren Zuren waited for Xie Xuan to enter, then followed behind and introduced to a little old man inside: "Father, Director Xie Xuan is here."
"Hello, Minister Ren, Minister Nakamura, why are you here?"
Xie Xuan naturally recognized Ren Daoyuan. Ren Daoyuan was in his fifties. He had a short beard, a crew cut, and wore a black suit. Although he was not tall, he had electric eyes.
The "Minister Nakamura" he refers to is Naoao Nakamura, the director of the Central China Liaison Department of the Japan Koya Academy.
Japan Koa Institute was established in December 1938. Japanese Prime Minister Fumimaro Konoe is the president, and the Foreign Minister, Tibetan Minister, Land Minister, and Maritime Minister concurrently serve as vice presidents. The first ministry is responsible for politics and the second ministry is for economics.
During the first Konoe Cabinet in December 1938 (Showa 13), the Japanese government advocated the establishment of a central agency for China in order to unify its China policy and established the Koya Institute.
At that time, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs believed that the military not only had control over the areas occupied by China, but also had diplomatic authority over China, and it opposed it, which led to the resignation of Foreign Minister Hirota Koki and Ugaki Kazunari.
Therefore, when the Xingya Institute implemented China policy, it handled relevant political, economic and cultural affairs, except diplomacy.
The institute has a liaison committee and branches in Beiping, Shenpu, Qingdao, Hankou, Guangzhou, Xiamen and other places in China. It also supervises the business of special companies in China and is responsible for directing local work.
The power of the Koya Institute is very great. Naoio Nakamura, the Liaison Minister for Central China, can report directly to the Prime Minister. In China, his status is transcendent.
Xie Xuan had met Nakamura Naoxiong before, but they had no friendship. He didn't expect to meet him at Ren Daoyuan's dinner.
Ren Daoyuan smiled and said: "Nakamura-kun is my classmate at the Japanese Military Academy. I specially invited him to accompany me today."
If he wanted to invite Xie Xuan to dinner, he would naturally want to let Xie Xuan see his strength and connections.
Calling Nakamura Naoxiong to accompany him was to show Xie Xuan his strong connections.
Li Junshi has the support of the Japanese, and he has even more support from the Japanese.
Ren Daoyuan's ability to hold so many positions in Wang's puppet government is also related to his classmates.
He was a classmate of the Japanese Military Academy, and many of them gained real power after entering the army.
At their age, if they had not been in power, they would have retired and gone home long ago.
"They say there is a young and promising deputy director in the Secret Service. When I saw him today, he was indeed extraordinary."
Naoki Nakamura is a true China connoisseur. His Chinese has almost no Japanese accent and is very standard Mandarin.
Xie Xuan said humbly: "Minister Nakamura is overly praised."
Ren Daoyuan said: "Zuren, let the waiter serve the food."
"good."
"Brother Xie Xuan, I have an appointment with you today. In addition to thanking you for your previous help, Mr. Nakamura also wants to have a chat with you."
After sitting down, Ren Daoyuan took the initiative to pour a glass of wine for Xie Xuan, and said sincerely while pouring the wine.
Nakamura Naoxiong's status in China is very transcendent. Sometimes, even Wang Mingzhao looks at his face.
Regardless of the Supreme Military Advisory Group, the Mei Agency or the Song Agency, they are all childish in front of Xingyayuan.
Xie Xuan said humbly: "It's just a simple effort. Minister Ren doesn't need to take it to heart. It's an honor for me to have a drink with Minister Nakamura. I'd like to thank Minister Ren for the opportunity."
Nakamura Naoxiong suddenly asked: "Mr. Xie, what do you think of Li Junshi?"
Xie Xuan bowed to Nakamura Naoxiong and mused: "Mr. Li is a very talented person. He single-handedly founded the Secret Service and made great contributions to clearing out the anti-Japanese forces in Shenpu and Central China."
Li Junshi was his boss, and he and Naoki Nakamura had never had such a private chat before, so naturally he could only comment positively on Li Junshi.
Nakamura Naoxiong looked at Xie Xuan and said softly: "I do not deny Mr. Li's talent, and I also admit that he did contribute a lot to the anti-Japanese movement. However, he also made many small actions in private. For example, Yong Xinglong's recent For another example, he secretly let go of the Chongqing personnel, and Wu Xiankai fled back to the mountain city before, and he also contributed. "
Li Junshi is a typical wallflower who works in two boats. He is really bold and reckless for his own gain.
Xie Xuan explained: "Well..., there are some things that Mr. Li can't do anything about. Moreover, he let go of the Chongqing personnel for work. Some Chongqing personnel are very stubborn. Letting them go will arouse suspicion among the military commanders. For example, Lin Tianwang, after he was released, surrendered to them and made great contributions to the elimination of the Shenpu Military Command Station and the Qingdao Station."
Naoki Nakamura said meaningfully: "His hand is stretched too far, which will bring disaster."
Xie Xuan's heart trembled, there was something in Nakamura Naoxiong's words.
He had heard before that the Japanese were planning to take action against Li Junshi, and Naoki Nakamura seemed to be very dissatisfied with Li Junshi. Are the Japanese planning to take action?
Ren Daoyuan said with a smile: "Thank you, brother, don't worry. Li Junshi's disaster has nothing to do with you. Maybe something happened to Li Junshi, which will be a good thing for you. Otherwise, he will always hold the position of director of the Secret Service and hinder your advancement."
He knew more inside information. The Japanese were already very dissatisfied with Li Junshi, but they had not yet made a final decision.
Once Li Junshi goes too far, the Japanese will have to get rid of him without Yamashiro taking action.
Nakamura Naoxiong suddenly said: "Mr. Xie, can you tell me more about Li Junshi? If he is gone, I will recommend you to take over his position."
"In fact, there is nothing to say about Mr. Li. He wants to clear out the anti-Japanese in the area, and at the same time do a good job in clearing the countryside, and earn some profits for himself. It doesn't matter. You can't let the horse go at the same time. Run, but you don’t want the horses to eat grass, right?”
"Mr. Xie, do you want to join Xingya Academy? If you want to join, I can be your introducer."
Xie Xuan said quickly: "I can't ask for it."
The president of Koa-in is the Prime Minister of Japan, and the vice-president is also a member of the cabinet. They are all powerful figures in Japan. If he can join Koa-in, his voice will be much more important to the Japanese in the future.
Nakamura Naoxiong said noncommittally: "If you want to join Koya Academy, it depends on your performance. As long as you perform well, you have a good chance of joining."
He wanted to seduce Xie Xuan by joining Xingya Academy. As long as Xie Xuan was tempted, he would give him conditions.
If Xie Xuan cannot be sincere to himself, how can he join Xingya Academy?
Nakamura Naoxiong didn't know that Xie Xuan was very good at seizing opportunities.
Nao Nakamura only ate half of the meal because he had to have a meeting in the afternoon, and he left.
After Nakamura Naoxiong left, Ren Daoyuan and Xie Xuan talked about a very important matter...
