"The Pretender" Why Liang Zhongchun is more annoying than Wang Manchun
Zhu Ying Liang Zhongchun is the head of Operation Unit 76, and Wang Manchun is the head of Intelligence Unit 76. The two were supposed to cooperate with each other, but on No. 76, Wang Manchun never looked at Liang Zhongchun in his eyes, and always led his own people to act after obtaining information by himself.
Although Wang Manchun's good fortune and merit-grabbing behavior made Liang Zhongchun feel dissatisfied, he did not choose to fight against it, but chose to work silently, believing that his ability and opportunity would always come.
Liang Zhongchun knows that only by relying on his own strength and hard work can he truly surpass others and win respect and recognition.
He was not interested in being in the limelight or attracting the attention of the Japanese, his goal was simply to make a living. If he really wanted to make meritorious contributions, he would have exposed Ming Lou a long time ago, but he didn't do it, which shows that he is a character in a gray area who seeks to survive in the chaos.
Liang Zhongchun passed Wang Manchun's test and confirmed that Ming Lou had returned to Shanghai, became an economic consultant, and became the direct leader of Liang Zhongchun and Wang Manchun on the 76th.
Although Wang Manchun did not have the slightest doubt about this, Liang Zhongchun sensed the suspiciousness of Minglou's identity from this appointment. He didn't personally verify Ming Lou's identity, but skillfully used Wang Manchun, because he knew that the relationship between Wang Manchun and Ming Lou was extraordinary.
Even if there is a problem in their relationship, Ming Lou will not be implicated, and if things fail, Ming Lou will not be unfavorable to Wang Manchun. And Wang Manchun will not let Minglou experience any pain, so as a bystander, he can see the essence of things more clearly.
A month ago, the Japanese military department was about to appoint Kusuji Harada to an important post in the Shanghai Economic Department. However, the Japanese economist and jurist was assassinated in Hong Kong.
Liang Zhongchun took out a Hong Kong newspaper from a drawer and pushed it in front of me. "You know what? On the day of Kumaji Harada's assassination, Ming Lou was in Hong Kong. Liang Zhongchun asked rhetorically, "Do you think Ming Lou killed Kumaji Harada to replace him?" ”
So, who do you think Kusuji Harada's death is most beneficial? Liang Zhongchun then asked, "Kumiji Harada is the head of the new ** Economic Department appointed by the Japanese Military Department, if he is alive, will Minglou have such a high status and attention?" ”
Why do you think Ming Lou killed him? I asked Liang Zhongchun.
I don't know! "Wang Manchun said coldly and said with a sneer"Look at what kind of people are around Minglou, taste luxury, vigorous skills, and come and go without a trace. "
Wang Manchun paused"Bringing such a person with you is definitely not the demeanor of a scholar. "
Ming Lou did kill Kumaji Harada before going to Shanghai, but only Liang Zhongchun linked Kumaji Harada's death to Ming Lou. Liang Zhongchun has a keen ** character, if he really wants to stand out in front of the Japanese, Wang Manchun will become insignificant.
But unlike Wang Manchun, he doesn't have to get to the bottom of everything like Wang Manchun, and his suspicions are limited to that. After Wang Manchun's test, he was even more sure that Minglou was not a simple person.
Liang Zhongchun cleverly judged that Ming Lou was from Chongqing, but did not immediately expose them, but decided to approach them first, and even asked Ah Cheng to assist him in smuggling in order to obtain wealth.
He knows that he is being used, but he is willing to be used because he has a back path in his heart. Compared with Wang Manchun, he understands the world better, and understands that the Japanese will eventually treat them as outsiders and will not really respect them.
Therefore, he did not work hard and left all the opportunities to Wang Manchun.
Liang Zhongchun emphasized that he is a family supremacist, believing that men should have a home and taking this as a sense of social responsibility. Ah Cheng was surprised by this, and Liang Zhongchun asked Ah Cheng if he was married or had a girlfriend.
Liang Zhongchun's view is that family is the cornerstone of a man's life, and a man with a family is more responsible and responsible.
Liang Zhongchun was a man who prioritized the happiness of his family, he betrayed his old master because of Zhongtong's defection to the Japanese, and although he was not a hero, his attitude towards his son showed that he was a loving father.
The difference between him and Wang Manchun is that he has emotional ties and the shortcomings of human nature, but Wang Manchun does not. Wang Manchun has become a complete executioner over the years.
However, Liang Zhongchun cares about the safety of his wife and son, and although he has another wife, he is not faithful to his wife.
Ah Cheng deliberately revealed to his wife what happened to him and Mrs. Ru, causing his wife to be furious. Ah Cheng looked innocent and claimed that he did not know that his brother-in-law was Mrs. Ru's younger brother.
In fact, Ah Cheng did this because he knew that Liang Zhongchun valued his family, and he deliberately approached Liang Zhongchun to take advantage of him. Liang Zhongchun was very troubled by this problem, he didn't know what to do, so he asked Ah Cheng for help.
Ah Cheng tells him that he must choose one of two options: either divorce his original partner or cut ties with Mrs. Ru.
Liang Zhongchun was in a dilemma, he could neither divorce his original partner nor sever his relationship with Mrs. Ru. In the end, Ah Cheng suggested that Mrs. Liang be sent back to her hometown.
When Liang Zhongchun heard this proposal, he deeply agreed. He believes that this method not only satisfies his own leisurely life, but also ensures the safety of his family. This, in the original book, there is a dream that reveals his ambivalence, and also shows that he values his family very much.
Liang Zhongchun sat alone in the room, staring intently at his wife and children's **, his face was pale. Maybe it's because of the long staring that I started to hallucinate. Mrs. Liang took the little boy by the hand and said affectionately: "I thought I was superfluous to you, and you drove me away, probably because you fell in love with another woman."
But after arriving in Chongqing, I realized that you have your own difficulties. I won't say more, I'll wait for you to come back. When the Anti-Japanese War is won, our family will be reunited. "Some things are irreparable. ”
Liang Zhongchun sighed. "I'm sensitive to emotional things, but I'm not stubborn ......"It's not a matter of feelings, it's ......A person who becomes a traitor will never be able to turn back for the rest of his life. ”
Mrs. Liang's voice suddenly became very poignant: "You must come back, otherwise what will we do?" Liang Zhongchun stood up suddenly, realizing that everything just now was an illusion, and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, his heart was full of bitterness and helplessness.
Liang Zhongchun is convinced that Ah Cheng and Ming Lou have extraordinary backgrounds, and Ah Cheng will not harm his family. So he chose to succumb to exploitation while leaving himself a way out. However, in his dream, he felt extremely regretful and helpless about the fact that he had become a traitor, and he could only admire heroes like Minglou in troubled times.
He prioritizes his family's safety more than anything else. He cares about and understands more in this world than Wang Manchun. Although Liang Zhongchun became a traitor, he did not prevent others from loving the country.
When Nantian was killed, Wang Manchun was deeply saddened, but Liang Zhongchun realized that all this might just be a game, and he chose to remain silent.
Liang Zhongchun's wisdom led him to choose to remain silent about Ming Lou's true identity. Compared with Wang Manchun, he has more sense of morality, but compared with patriotic heroes like Ming Lou, he is less fearless.
His inner entanglements and contradictions reveal the weakness and hesitation of human nature.
Liang Zhongchun did not voluntarily stand on the side of the reunification of the Central People's Republic of China, he had already made a decision deep in his heart, and he knew that he had no way out. But he was worried about his family and his family's situation after the victory.
He didn't care about his personal life and death, because from the moment he turned against the water, there was no turning back. Therefore, when Ah Cheng asked him to help Mingtai in his punishment and save Mingtai's life, Liang Zhongchun did not agree at first.
Aware of the peculiarities of his identity and fearing the loss of his life if exposed, he initially took a negative attitude towards the task. However, Ah Cheng made him feel stressed by threatening his family.
At this time, Liang Zhongchun confirmed that his prediction was correct. Although he agreed to Ah Cheng's request, he put forward an additional condition.
Liang Zhongchun pondered for a moment and added a request. "I used to serve in the Central Union, and this rebellion required a handwritten amnesty decree from Mr. Chen. At the same time, I hope to be able to continue working as an undercover agent for the Central Union. ”
After hearing this, Ah Cheng smiled and took out an amnesty order issued by Director Chen from his purse. "Mr. Liang, I know what you need, and I've got it ready for you. ”
Liang Zhongchun was amazed: "* far-sighted, admirable. After careful consideration, he decided to pledge allegiance to the party-state. He took out a pistol from the drawer, and the bullet had been withdrawn from the magazine in advance.
Ah Cheng and Ming Lou already knew something about Liang Zhongchun, so everything was arranged in an orderly manner. Liang has been waiting for the amnesty to prove that he is a loyal defender of the party and not a traitor to the state.
Liang Zhongchun knew that he had no way out, so after being taken away by the Japanese, he still chose to stick to it and did not reveal the news of Minglou. He had to protect his family until he died, and that was the last thing he could do for his family.
He hoped that his wife and children, after the victory, would not be disgraced for having a traitorous husband and father. His sacrifice was the last and greatest sacrifice he ever made for his family.
His bravery and determination have left a deep impression on people's hearts, and this is what makes him more outstanding than Wang Manchun. He is a true hero who deserves our respect and remembrance.
