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.
Have you ever had Japanese food?
Tomorrow,
I'll invite Sada
to have a meal with us.
Sada is a nice person.
And
when you
put the sashimi in your mouth,
you will find the taste
is amazing.
