Although he didn't know this person's name, he knew that he was from the Shanghai District under the military command.
Previously, Lu Fei was trapped by "Nagging", rebelled and surrendered to the enemy, and gave away the stronghold of the Shanghai District Headquarters of the Military Command at No. 19 Cordier Road.
The Special High School set a trap on Cordier Road to round up the Shanghai District, which is under military control.
If Cheng Qianfan hadn't uncovered the clues and led the Shanghai Special Intelligence Group to provide covert support to help the Shanghai District break out of the siege, the military control of the Shanghai District would have been overthrown by the Japanese.
When the Shanghai District personnel broke through, the appearance of some of them was naturally seen by Cheng Qianfan, who was blocking the enemy. Although it was just a quick glance, Cheng Qianfan's memory was amazing. When they met again this time, he recognized this person at a glance.
He wondered in his mind, did this person come to the Grand Guangming Theater to watch movies normally? Or was the Shanghai District of Juntong doing something nearby? Or was he meeting nearby?
Cheng Qianfan's first reaction was to avoid it.
No matter what the military command of Shanghai District is going to do, even if he breaks into this place unintentionally, it will not be helpful to him who is covered in secrets.
At this moment, a little girl with braids came over, bent down, and handed a movie poster to Xiaobao with a smile, "Little sister, do you want to know what Shanghai will be like in sixty years?"
It's all in the wonderfully funny movie "Shanghai 60 Years Later."
"Brother, I know this movie." Xiaobao said immediately, "Xiao Ming's father took him to watch this movie, and when he returned to school, he bragged about it everywhere."
Cheng Qianfan knew about this movie. This movie, which was dubbed a wonderful comedy by the cinema, was very popular among children.
The film "Shanghai 60 Years Later" tells the story of Han and Liu, employees of a certain company. Although their salary is not high, they have a tiger wife and a dog dragging them down, they still indulge in wild things outside.
On New Year's Eve, the two went to the dance hall to have fun, but they were discovered by Han's wife and Liu's wife. They were each taken back and imprisoned in the attic.
The two of them were so depressed that they even had the idea of changing their family and the world.
Then he came to Shanghai sixty years later in his dream.
A university history professor discovered two innocent corpses and discovered that they were actually Han and Liu who died in battle 60 years ago.
The two were revived by the professor and their memories were restored.
However, due to changes in the world, their wives had already remarried, and the professor did not allow the two to go home to reunite. However, he used technological means to allow Han and Liu to have a video conversation with their respective sons.
In the video, their children are already old men with white hair and beards.
Han and Liu were eager to go home and took the opportunity to escape from the professor's place.
In order to blend in and avoid being laughed at, the two of them swapped the clothes of drunkards on the roadside and wandered around the market.
At this time, humans have abolished names and used numbers instead.
Because they could not adapt, they suffered many disasters.
The thief was riding in a car, suddenly became airborne, fell into the corridor of a high-rise building, and was mistakenly invited into the house.
There are automatic switching equipment in the restaurant, reception room, bedroom, bathroom, etc. The two people were not familiar with the operation and pressed the buttons randomly, causing chaos.
The professor knew that the two were causing trouble outside and sent someone to arrest them.
It turned out that the clothes they stole were the uniforms of the City Council administrators on duty, and they were mistakenly sent back to the bureau on duty.
There were a lot of machines and equipment in the room on duty, and the two people were messing around with them, causing drastic changes in the weather, including cold, heat, rain, and snow, all of which were unpredictable.
The city residents complained endlessly and rushed into the City Hall to arrest the two men.
The professor wanted to send the two people back to their original places through water burial.
The two people screamed in fear of death. Suddenly they woke up and found that they were wearing burial clothes and their family members were wailing around the bed. It turned out that the two people had been lying awake for several days. Their family members thought they were dead and were preparing for their funeral.
Cheng Qianfan read newspaper articles in his spare time and was amazed and fascinated by the fantasy scenes described in the movie.
And for a thoughtful person like him, he can understand the painstaking efforts of the director and script from this film:
Sixty years later, historians "learned" that Liu and Han were resurrected as martyrs who died in the battlefield. This is a metaphor. The two were well-known anti-Japanese martyrs, and sixty years later, they are still remembered by the world.
Keeping this in mind means that Shanghai is still China and our Chinese civilization continues. This can only be explained by the victory of the Anti-Japanese War!
In the movie, the municipal offices are all Chinese, speak Chinese, and the university history professors teach Chinese history, which also illustrates this point——
China will not perish!
Not only will it not die, it will also develop very well!
Cheng Qianfan longed for it.
If this is the case, there is no regret in dying!
…
"Okay, then let's watch this movie." Cheng Qianfan said with a smile, and he took the movie poster from Xiaobao's hand.
Seeing the timid look on the little girl's face, 'Mr. Xiao Cheng' smiled and said, "Okay, it has your signature number on it, and you will definitely get your share of the profits."
The little girl bowed and went happily to continue promoting the movie elsewhere.
Movie posters have the numbers of these little girls who promote movies, and they are half-grown men. For example, on this poster, it says "Yang Shiyi" in a crooked way.
The movie theater groups these little girls who sell movies according to the twelve zodiac signs. This little girl is from the sheep group. This is the eleventh poster that she has sold.
Cheng Qianfan suddenly changed his decision and agreed to take Xiaobao to watch a movie. It seemed unexpected, but it was really helpless.
There are two reasons.
His love for Xiaobao, his adopted sister, is no secret in the French Concession. Xiaobao first proposed to watch a movie. At this time, Cheng Qianfan might have thought of an excuse to refuse, but when the girl promoting the movie approached him, he added
Xiaobao likes to watch this movie very much. Cheng Qianfan makes excuses to refuse it. Normally, it doesn't matter. However, if someone uses a magnifying glass to observe it, this is a doubt that is not a doubt.
In addition, there is another point. Xiaobao mentioned Xiaoming. Xiaoming's father, Lu Qixiang, was a Japanese special. Cheng Qianfan was never afraid to speculate with the greatest malice. If Lu Qixiang learned from his son that he refused to take Xiaobao to watch his favorite movie, he would not
I wonder if this will attract some attention from Lu Qixiang.
Many times, a bad situation is not created in one day, but is caused by such small details.
He took Xiaobao to the movies, and it was fair and aboveboard, so he didn't have to hide anything. Thinking about it the other way around, if he was investigated due to some actions in Shanghai, this would actually clear his suspicion.
…
"Little monkey, go buy some movie tickets for "Shanghai on the Beach Sixty Years Later." Cheng Qianfan told Hou Pingliang.
"Yes, Brother Fan."
Hou Pingliang agreed, ordered his four brothers to protect Brother Fan and Xiaobao, and led one of his men to the ticket office.
Zhang Shen was leaning on a telegraph pole not far from the ticket office. He was holding an old newspaper in his hand, looking like an idler snoring in the sun.
The sunshine here is very good, and there are several idle people like him who are snoring the sun, so it is not out of the ordinary.
Hou Pingliang watched and led people straight towards the ticket office. Then he glanced and saw Cheng Qianfan not far away, who was guarded by bodyguards. Zhang Shen's eyes shrank. He picked up the newspaper and pretended to read it, covering his face.
cheek.
He was nervous and alert.
Cheng Qianfan was extremely pro-Japanese. Although he did not openly vote for the Japanese, it was generally believed within the military command that this 'Little President Cheng' would undoubtedly be a traitor ten times harder than a hard-core traitor in the future!
"Here are five copies of "Shanghai on the Beach Sixty Years Later." Hou Pingliang bought four movie tickets.
He made a plan, and he took the two of them to accompany Brother Fan and Xiaobao to the cinema to watch a movie, as a guard.
The other three brothers were on alert outside the cinema at all times, which was enough to ensure Brother Fan's safety.
Watching Cheng Qianfan and a girl enter the cinema under the protection of three bodyguards, before Zhang Shen could breathe a sigh of relief, he saw three people remaining outside the cinema.
The three of them seemed to be smoking and talking outside the cinema, but with Zhang Shencai's professional eyes, they were actually always vigilant and paying attention to the surrounding situation.
This made Zhang Shencai's expression change and he became worried.
Soon Secretary Cheng will bring Geng Jiaji's photo to meet him here. He is worried that they will be discovered by Cheng Qianfan's men.
Zhang Shencai was very decisive. Without any hesitation, he put away the newspaper, patted his butt, and strolled towards the Guangming Cafe.
He didn't know that Cheng Xuyuan was going to Guangming Cafe, but just now Cheng Xuyuan went in this direction.
…
On the street outside Guangming Cafe.
Cheng Xuyuan looked sad as he was grabbed by a foreigner.
He just accidentally knocked down the foreigner. After the foreigner got up from the ground, he grabbed him and showed a cloth bag in his hand to Cheng Xuyuan, saying that his ancestors had porcelain and antique quilts.
It broke and Cheng Xuyuan was asked to compensate him.
Who is Cheng Xuyuan?
Naturally, he could see that this person was a cheater.
Recently, porcelain gangs have appeared in the market, and the "Declaration" specially reminded the public to pay attention. However, they did not expect that this porcelain guy turned out to be a foreigner.
Return the porcelain antiques obtained from your ancestors?
Are you an ancestor of a foreign devil?
Could it be that they were stolen from the Old Summer Palace?
Cheng Xuyuan had no choice but to deal with this foreign scoundrel, and he did not dare to call the police to deal with it. He could only admit that he was unlucky, took out his wallet, and gave all the money in the wallet to the foreigners before he escaped.
At this moment, Cheng Xuyuan was about to open the door of the cafe and go in, when he saw Zhang Shencai looking around.
Zhang Shencai also saw him and made a gesture.
This gesture meant that there was something going on at the Grand Guangming Theater, and the meeting place for the two people's subsequent screening photos had changed.
Cheng Xuyuan was shocked.
Although Zhang Shen was talking about the situation at the Grand Guangming Theater, he was not talking about the situation at the Guangming Cafe.
However, Cheng Xuyuan is such a vigilant person:
Ruan Zhiyuan rebelled, and station chief Zheng Weilong was arrested.
Lu Fei rebelled and was hunted by the Japanese on Cordial Road.
Wang Tiemu and Chen Mingchu rebelled, and Chen Mingchu even tried to trap him.
And so on.
(Shanghai Station of the Lixingshe Secret Service) The Shanghai area under military control was full of disasters, and in every dangerous situation, he was always there to save the day.
In addition to the blessing of luck, this is directly related to Cheng Xuyuan's character of being cautious and decisive, and never taking any chances once he realizes something.
Therefore, although Zhang Shencai only said that there was something going on at the Guangming Grand Theater, and it was unknown what the situation was, Cheng Xuyuan was very decisive. He did not enter the Guangming Cafe, but turned around and left.
You can take photos at any time, you only have one life, be careful and you can save your life!
…
Bright Cafe.
Wan Sanliang would occasionally take a sip of coffee and look calmer, but in fact he was a little nervous inside.
Looking at his clear and logical analysis in front of Li Cuiqun, Chen Mingchu and others, he was sure that Cheng Xuyuan would come to the cafe in person today to pick up the photos.
In fact, he also knew in his heart that this was just his analysis after all. If it was not Cheng Xuyuan who came, he would have no choice but to continue to figure it out slowly.
The quarrel on the road outside the cafe caught Wan Sanliang's attention. He glanced at Dong Zhengguo, who was reading a newspaper and drinking coffee in the corner of the cafe.
Dong Zhengguo made a gesture, and an agent pretending to be a guest went out to check.
After a while, the man came back and said that there were foreigners having sex on the street.
Neither of them paid much attention to it. In the past few days, the Pengci Gang had been popping up. The Guangming Cafe cost a lot of money. They could come here to taste the coffee. The people who made the pastries were all wealthy people. It made sense for the Pengci Gang to choose to work near the Guangming Cafe.
After a while, the noise disappeared.
Wan Sanliang checked the time on his watch. He made an appointment with the district headquarters to meet at Guangming Cafe at 2:30 noon.
It was already two thirty-one at this time.
Wan Sanliang frowned.
He was determined to go to the entrance of the cafe to take a look at the situation, but he was worried that his too eager behavior would attract Cheng Xuyuan's attention and suspicion.
Wan Sanliang was worried that Cheng Xuyuan would be spying in secret:
I have long heard that Secretary Cheng is quite cautious and very lucky. The Shanghai District has been raided back and forth by the Japanese and the secret service headquarters so many times. Even the district chief (former district chief) was arrested twice.
The district chiefs (acting district chiefs) in Shanghai District have also changed twice, but the secretary Cheng Xuyuan is still safe and sound. He can be said to be a smooth district seat and an iron-clad secretary.
Therefore, Wan Sanliang did not dare to act rashly.
…
Cheng Xuyuan left quietly.
He chose to walk for more than a hundred steps. After confirming that no one was following him, he did not relax completely and hailed a rickshaw.
He deliberately said loudly that he was going to Jing'an Temple, and then got off the bus after a while.
After turning into an alley and waiting for a few minutes, Zhang Shencai arrived just after him.
"What happened?" Cheng Xuyuan asked in a low voice.
"Cheng Qianfan took people to watch a movie, and several of his men stayed outside the cinema." Zhang Shen then explained, "Those people look like they are not ordinary people at first glance. I am worried that something will happen."
After saying that, Zhang Shen felt a little uneasy and said, "Secretary, have I gone too far and ruined your affairs here?"
"No, you did the right thing." Cheng Xuyuan shook his head.
No one in their profession can be too cautious.
Zhang Shen was worried that Cheng Qianfan's people would be detrimental to them. Is this worry necessary?
necessary!
This 'Little Mr. Cheng' is determined to be a traitor. You must know that Wang went to Nanjing to have secret talks with Liang Hongzhi and Wang Kemin, and Cheng Qianfan was accompanying him.
"Let's go." Cheng Xuyuan thought for a while and then said decisively to Zhang Shen.
Although it was now proven that it was just because Cheng Qianfan's men were waiting at the theater and not that there was a problem on their side, now that he had left the cafe, Cheng Xuyuan would not go back to the cafe to meet with Wan Sanliang again.
If anything unexpected happens during the jointing process, it is never a good sign.
Superstitious Cheng Xuyuan believed in this.
