Cheng Ao.
About Xiu,
I didn't tell you the truth.
I know.
About Huang Aniu,
I also lied to you.
I know.
But today,
I need to tell you the truth
and be honest.
I do have connections with the Japanese.
They now wield considerable
influence in Shanghai.
I can only befriend them
and avoid making enemies.
It allows me to make money
without any risk.
I hope you understand that
and help me convince Dad
to cooperate with the Japanese.
What do you think?
Forget about Communism.
If you continue down that path,
it will only lead to your death.
Besides,
our family business
is only in the French Concession.
Soon after the Japanese come,
the French will all flee.
