Lu Ming did not agree to An Gonggen's request. This action is different from the kidnapping of Seishiro Ozawa, mainly because his identity has changed.

An Gonggen was not in the government when Seishiro Ozawa was kidnapped, and it was entirely a personal act. Now his every move represents the image of the government of the Republic of China.

If we still do it like last time, not to mention whether it will be successful or not, even if it is successful, it will drag the Republic of China government and Qian Tian into the water, causing serious diplomatic incidents.

Qiantian's situation in the Japanese consulate is already very dangerous. If he recklessly participates in the assassination operation and shows his feet inadvertently, he will be convicted of treason, and the consulate can no longer protect him.

Qian Tian will be escorted back to the country for trial, in that case there is only one dead end.

Qian Tian is Lu Ming's only Japanese friend, a true international friend, Lu Ming would never let Qian Tian take such a big risk.

After all, Qiantian is neither Chinese nor Korean. We must respect him and oppose Japan's war of aggression in his own way.

"Let me think about this matter. There must be a way. You plan first, and I will definitely find a way to let your people enter Hongqiao Park." Lu Ming said.

"Master Lu is more thoughtful. Let's formulate a specific action plan first, as detailed as possible, and then make a decision for you." An Gonggen made up his mind to do this, and Lu Ming did not object, so he was relieved gone.

During this period, the Blue Shirts Club also underwent a major reform.

In March, the Blue Clothes Society officially adopted its original name: China Fuxing Society, or Fuxing Society for short, with He Zhonghan as its president.

Kang Ze also received a transfer order, promoted to major general, and went to Jiangxi to form a special operation brigade to suppress the Communist Party, responsible for dealing with the Communist Party.

But Kang Ze hasn't left yet. After all, here in Shanghai, the handover can't be completed in a day or two.

Lu Ming still serves as the financial director of Fuxingshe and the vice president of Shanghai Branch.

Originally, the headquarters proposed that he be the president of the Shanghai branch, but Lu Ming voluntarily resigned, giving up the position of president.

He also knows that because he is the representative of Sheng Youde, Mr. Jiang has to reuse him, but it is impossible to trust him completely. Even if he becomes the president, he will be ostracized. It is better not to be the president of this tablet .

Originally, both Kang Ze and Lu Ming intended to let the chief of the fourth division take over as the president of the Shanghai branch, but after the appointment letter from the Nanjing side, it was Weng Bailing, the chief of the sixth division, who took over Kang Ze's position.

Lu Ming was surprised by this.

Weng Bailing had always kept a low profile in the Shanghai branch, unlike the directors of the fourth and fifth divisions who were willing to stand out, unexpectedly, it was him who won in the end.

Kang Ze was depressed for several days because of this, the director of the fourth division had the best personal relationship with him, and he had promised the position to the director of the fourth division, but he broke his promise in the end.

Kang Ze privately solicited the opinions of the chiefs of the four divisions, whether he would go to Jiangxi to work with him as his deputy, and his rank could be promoted from lieutenant colonel to colonel.

The directors of the four divisions are naturally grateful.

Kang Ze also made arrangements for the chief of the fifth branch. He was transferred back to the Nanjing headquarters to take up an important position, so that the internal organization of the Shanghai branch was settled.

The positions of the two division chiefs are taken over by the section chiefs under them. This is the law of officialdom operation.

Lu Ming was not surprised by Kang Ze's departure.

He had known for a long time that Deng Wenyi and Kang Ze, even the current He Zhonghan, would not be able to stay in the club for a long time. They just took the lead in establishing the organization, and then they would appoint others.

After all, they are all soldiers, and they are Mr. Jiang's confidantes. If Mr. Jiang wants to expand the army, these people have to lead troops everywhere, and it is impossible to stay in the agency for a long time to do intelligence work.

What's more, these people are really not intelligence materials. Kang Ze has been the head of the Shanghai branch for almost a year, and he can hardly figure it out, which is enough to explain the problem.

It's not that these people are not good at intelligence, but that relatively speaking, they are more effective in leading troops to fight or serving as Mr. Jiang's aides.

Lu Ming didn't have much interest in the Fuxing Society. He stayed here to gather information for Sheng Youde, and he was also preparing for the secret service school.

Lu Ming was very concerned about this matter, he even wanted to withdraw from the Fuxing Society and specialize in the secret service school, but unfortunately he couldn't, Sheng Youde needed him to stay in the Fuxing Society as his eyes and ears.

However, taking advantage of this reform, Lu Ming wanted to increase his weight, so he asked the head office to add a vice president.

He Zhonghan agreed to his request and asked him to recommend a candidate. The candidate proposed by Lu Ming was Huang Yanning.

The day before he proposed the candidate, he had a drink with Huang Yanning.

"Chief Huang, do you know what this change means?" Lu Ming asked.

"Isn't it just a name change?" Huang Yanning said with a smile.

"There is no such simple thing. Let me tell you, this is another step towards officially becoming a national intelligence agency. First, the Blue Shirts Society, and now the Fuxing Society. It is estimated that in one or two years, it will become an official national intelligence agency. .” Lu Ming nodded.

"Really, this is equivalent to upgrading our organization, that's great." Huang Yanning was overjoyed.

Everyone in the society is looking forward to the day when it becomes a formal state organization. They are all Huangpu elites. How can they be willing to serve in a non-governmental organization for a long time? Non-staff members mean that it is difficult to get promotion opportunities.

Although the salary of the Blue Shirts Society is good, which is obviously higher than that of staff members, there is a huge difference between a private private organization and a formal state organization, even if the organization is headed by the chairman.

"Have you ever thought that in a year or two, many people will be transferred out of the club, and many people will come in, and then one day, two factions will be formed in the club, one is the Nanjing Gang and the other is It's the Shanghai Gang. If that day comes, which gang would you like to join?" Lu Ming asked with a smile.

"It goes without saying, which gang Master Lu belongs to, I'm a member of that gang." Huang Yanning didn't think about it at all, and replied decisively.

In terms of background, he certainly belongs to the Whampoa Gang, that is, the Nanjing Gang, but he knows that in Shanghai, no one has an advantage over Lu Ming. Lu Ming represents the big boss Sheng Youde, and the forces behind him Intertwined.

Huang Yanning knew in his heart that Lu Ming had always taken good care of him and was kind to him, so he was naturally a person who would repay his kindness.

"That's good, I hope you will always remember this choice." Lu Ming laughed.

The next day, Lu Ming proposed to Nanjing Huang Yanning's request to be the vice president of the Fuxing Society, and he got a confirmation call in the afternoon, and the letter of appointment was officially issued the next day.

Huang Yanning was stunned when he received the letter of appointment. Normally, the position of vice president would never be his turn.

Although the two division chiefs have places to go, each division has three regular section chiefs. Among the nine regular section chiefs, he is not the best, or he is not the natural candidate.

He is not a fool, he immediately understood the purpose of Lu Ming asking him for a drink yesterday, and he also knew that this letter of appointment was won by Lu Ming for him.

"Congratulations, Vice President Huang." Lu Ming was the first to find him, congratulating him.

"Master Lu, I understand. I swear to be loyal to you forever and never betray you." Huang Yanning said very solemnly.

"Too serious, we should all be loyal to the organization, to the revolutionary work, not to individuals." Lu Ming laughed.

Huang Yanning nodded gratefully.Along the way, he got the protection of Chairman Sheng and Lu Ming. A year ago, he was promoted to lieutenant colonel because of Chairman Sheng's work in the Ministry of National Defense.

Now, under the recommendation of Lu Ming, he has been promoted to the vice president of Fuxingshe Shanghai Branch, what an honor it is.

At this moment, in his heart, there is one more loyal object, besides the principal, it is Lu Ming.

For other Whampoa elites, the only object of loyalty is naturally the principal, Mr. Jiang.

When the whole society held a general meeting in the afternoon to announce the appointment, the audience was in an uproar, but with the precedent of Weng Bailing, the head of the six divisions, as the president, everyone has a certain degree of immunity. Although they don't understand what happened, they also know that It is the result of the upper-level game, they can only obey orders.

These days, Kang Ze has been idle, so he finds Lu Ming to drink and chat.

"Brother Lu, in fact, I really don't want to leave. After all my hard work, the Shanghai branch is finally on the right track. Not to mention credit, I have feelings." Kang Ze sighed.

"Brother Kang, oh no, General Kang, you can't think like this, you are Gao Sheng." Lu Ming smiled and pointed to the star on his shoulder, and said.

"It's not about being promoted. Obedience is a bounden duty for soldiers. Going to Jiangxi is nothing more than building another organization." Kang Ze said depressingly.
