In May 1949, the remnants of the Kuomintang garrison in Shanghai surrendered to the People's Liberation Army, and Shanghai was officially liberated. Immediately, the Shanghai Navy Management Committee headed by ** took over the management of Shanghai in an all-round way. Gangsters and local snakes who used to roam Shanghai have fled one after another in an attempt to avoid the liquidation of the people's power. As one of the "three tycoons", he did not become a traitor like Zhang Xiaolin and died unexpectedly, nor did he avoid Hong Kong like Du Yuesheng, but stayed in Shanghai. After the liberation of Shanghai, **Rong felt the fear of the coming of the end and was in a panic. However, the military management committee sent someone to give a lecture to ** Rong, which made him completely put his heart back in his stomach.
*Rong's ancestral home is Zhejiang, and when he was young, in order to make a living, he worked as an apprentice in Shanghai's Chenghuangmiao business district. Although he has no culture, **Rong is naturally deaf and clear-sighted, and he is good at looking at people's faces. Relying on the imperialist forces to run rampant in old China, ** Rong gradually rose to become the leader of the Qing Gang, a famous gang organization in Shanghai. In the process of ** Rong completing the original accumulation of capital, he did all kinds of evil. Relying on the support of the patrol house, ** Rong collected protection money, forcibly demolished people's houses, and even sold intelligence, black and white, as long as it was a profitable business, there was nothing he didn't want to get involved in. After accumulating strong contacts, ** Rong assisted the French patrol house to crack several criminal offenses of a heinous nature, and became famous for a while, and his power group gradually developed into the most influential organization in Shanghai.
By chance, ** Rong got acquainted with Chiang Kai-shek, who had not yet ascended to the high position of power in the Kuomintang, and the latter, in order to stain his glory, called him a brother and brother, and mixed up every day. Rong also took care of this ambitious little brother many times and supported him with money and efforts. The "treasure" that Rong bet on Chiang Kai-shek eventually brought him rich returns, and after Chiang Kai-shek seized power, Rong was in the limelight in Shanghai for a while. As a member of the reactionary regime in Shanghai, Rong committed the most serious crime against the people, which was the bloody killing of communists and the working class during April 12. In response to Chiang Kai-shek's ** policy, **Rong tangled up a large number of hooligans** and killed revolutionaries. However, if there is another benefit to ** Rong, it is that he has never been ambiguous in the face of national righteousness, and he has refused countless times the request of the Japanese to invite him out of the mountain. Not being a traitor is the only bottom line of this gang leader.
During the Battle of Crossing the River, news that the People's Liberation Army was about to capture Shanghai was already spreading in the streets and alleys. **Rong, Du Yuesheng and the like, know what they may encounter. Du Yuesheng chartered a boat and fled to Hong Kong with his family, and after arriving in Hong Kong, he sent a letter to ** Rong, asking him to follow his example and go to Hong Kong to "discuss great plans". * Rong did not answer, he was born in 1868, he is already 81 years old, and he no longer has the courage to shout and kill if he disagrees. He can't leave his comfortable life circle, thinking that in the last years of the wind and candles, he will rely on low eyebrows to smooth his ears but survive. On the eve of the People's Liberation Army stationed in Shanghai, he received a note from his old friend Yang Hu. The note was handwritten by **, promising that as long as **Rong changed his mind, changed his past wrongs, and did more things that were beneficial to the people, the past crimes could be blamed. ** Rong was flattered and understood the goodwill signal released by our party to him.
Unlike most cities in the mainland, Shanghai remains an important economic and financial centre in Asia after years of war. With the current strength of the PLA, it is only a matter of time before Shanghai is captured. However, the end of the war is not destruction, but rebirth. How to protect Shanghai's industrial and commercial situation and restore normal social order as soon as possible is the most important thing for our party to consider. For a person like ** Rong who has an intricate foundation in Shanghai, if it can be successfully transformed and transformed, it will be a good medicine to stabilize the situation in Shanghai. **Rong has experienced countless ups and downs in his life, how can he not find his position at this critical point in time?Soon after the army entered the city, ** received a "letter of surrender" from ** Rong , a list of Shanghai ruffians and hooligans including almost all of ** Rong's subordinates and disciples. According to the map, the Military Management Committee successfully controlled these lawbreakers.
After the makeover in Shanghai, ** Rong still maintains his old three lives: bathing, opium, and mahjong. Although it did not conform to the policy, in view of his special status, the Military Control Commission did not strictly restrain him at first. When opium is always out of stock, mahjong pairs are becoming more and more difficult to find, that is, to go to the bathhouse, most people are also respectful of ** Rong and stay away, and his life is gradually sad. As time passed, the citizens of Shanghai learned that ** Rong was still maintaining a free life, and they were furious and demanded to settle his historical mistakes. At the meeting attended by people from all walks of life in Shanghai, most of the deputies expressed their opinions calling for arrest and glorification, and for a time the crowd was indignant. The first person who presided over the overall work of Shanghai frankly confessed to everyone the attitude of the Military Management Committee towards Rong, and also affirmed the necessity of maintaining the stage of Rong's life in Shanghai. Of course, the Military Management Commission will not tolerate Rong's opium smoking, and has confiscated the tobacco and soil left in his home and ordered him to change his bad habits.
Considering that **Rong was guilty of a lot of crimes, and it would be difficult for the people to be angry if he was not dealt with, the Military Management Committee finally decided to arrange **Rong to sweep the streets. When the news reached Taiwan, Chiang Kai-shek pondered for a long time, sighed at our party's strong ruling ability, and bluntly said, "It's really amazing." * Although Rong escaped the wave of people's condemnation, he did a lot of bad things, and he still didn't pass his own level after all. In 1953, under the rising "suppression of rebellion" in the country, ** Rong was like a frightened bird, and his mood had a serious decline. Eventually, he died at the age of 85 due to a serious heart attack caused by a coma. **Rong's aftermath was extremely cold and perfunctory, and most of his net worth was swept away by the concubine who harbored evil intentions. Those who cut themselves off from the people will eventually be abandoned by society.
