This book mainly describes Du Yuesheng's life story. Mentioning Du Yuesheng cannot help but remind us of the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China where he lived. Due to the incompetence, weakness and compromise of the Qing government, the whole of China was invaded and ravaged by foreign colonial rulers. The whole country is in collusion with officials, the people are in dire straits, the society is in turmoil, and the people are in dire straits. Among the big cities at that time, Shanghai was still the most prosperous and dazzling city. Shanghai, which can be called a commercial and military center, became a paradise for adventurers. In Shanghai at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, there were all kinds of strange and varied danger signals lurking, which satisfied the pursuit and demand of adventurers for excitement and challenge. The beach in Shanghai has never been calm. Compared with the calmness of the Huangpu River, it has a strong atmosphere of competition and fighting.

Use this to quickly understand Du Yuesheng.
Du Yuesheng, as the leader of the Shanghai Youth Gang in modern China, had a magnificent and legendary life. When Du Yuesheng was fourteen years old, he worshiped Chen Shichang of the Youth Gang as an old man. In 1925, Du Yuesheng established the "Sanxin Company" to monopolize the shipment of opium in the concession. But during the national crisis, Du Yuesheng served as the vice president of the Red Cross Society of China for many years, did some useful charity work, and established many hospitals. At the same time, he also devoted himself to education, founded many schools, donated money to schools, and made great contributions to the Anti-Japanese War.
Du Yuesheng is a very legendary character, a character that no novel dares to write about like this. He walked between black and white and was born in a slum, but he was able to become a well-known celebrity in various industries in Shanghai during that period. There is no way to judge whether he is a good person or a bad person, but he used his words and deeds to write himself into history, so that future generations like us can learn from it how to behave and how to build a world. I just finished reading the book. In addition to admiration, my deepest emotion is: as a human being, never let your temper be bigger than your ability.
In the turbulent Shanghai at that time, there were people of all kinds from all walks of life. There are businessmen, ordinary people, gangsters, and high-ranking government officials. What is even more disgusting is that Western powers occupied Shanghai at that time, including Britain, Japan, France, etc., And became their colonies. In such a troubled Shanghai, Du Yuesheng was able to rise from a low-level gangster to become a Green Gang boss and a Shanghai tycoon. Moreover, he righteously refused to cooperate with the Japanese. He said: I am a Chinese, and it is difficult for me to obey my order due to the interests of the country and the nation.
His life was full of ups and downs. In an era when the war was raging and the people were in dire straits, he became a tycoon. He was good at coordinating the underworld forces and various relationships among the warlords. He also "taken and used money with the soil", and used a large amount of ill-gotten wealth to surround various figures in society. He had strong patriotism and made a lot of contributions in the Anti-Japanese War, but he also committed mistakes and crimes during the revolution. This book vividly portrays Du Yuesheng's image, which made me understand this hero better.
Du Yuesheng: He turned his family's misfortune into a driving force for success. His IQ and EQ are unfathomable, and he is also the darling of an era. In troubled times, he worked step by step, worked hard, and climbed into the upper class society. He "networked" with dignitaries and powerful men! He gathered and dispersed wealth, and he gave full play to it. Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. There is no doubt that Du Yuesheng seized it... Successfully!
I especially hate those officials and businessmen who bully the people, but fortunately Du Yuesheng punished them. The author writes very vividly, just like watching a movie. I think Du Yuesheng was the superhero of that era! This book gave me a deeper understanding of Shanghai during the Republic of China. I recommend it to everyone!
As a person with decisive emotional intelligence and decision-making ability, this book describes Du Yuesheng's "life of rising from mediocrity." From a reckless man to a hero of the Republic of China, he experienced war, pain and failure throughout his life. With his tireless efforts and high-spirited perseverance, he grew into a celebrity who had a profound impact on the society of the late Qing Dynasty. We can get a lot of motivation and inspiration from Du Yuesheng's legendary life. After reading this book, I believe that we will gain a lot of strength from Du Yuesheng.
Heroes emerge in troubled times, and during the chaotic Republic of China, Du Yuesheng's name was heard like thunder. A reckless man became a hero of the Republic of China. He experienced war, pain and failure throughout his life. With his tireless efforts and high-spirited perseverance, he grew into a celebrity who had a profound impact on the society of the late Qing Dynasty. Don't ask where the heroes of the world come from. We can get a lot of motivation and inspiration from Du Yuesheng's legendary life. After reading this book, I believe that we will gain a lot of strength from Du Yuesheng.
After reading the previous article, I have a basic understanding of Du Yuesheng (Sheng)
This is the fourth book I have read about Du Yuesheng. Heroism seems to have always been one of his labels. I have a new understanding of this man who had a tragic experience in childhood, had top wealth in middle age, and lamented in pain at the last moment of his life. He has too many labels on him, and he is also a complex person. He values human relationships and is too idealistic at the same time. But the most shocking thing is his anti-Japanese and national salvation and political struggle. In addition to his conduct as a person, you can also feel that era in him.
This book is not purely about Du Yuesheng's life. If you are only interested in Du Yuesheng, you can only read the first half. The first half of the description of Du Yuesheng is relatively objective.
Du Yuesheng's loyalty to the world, patriotism and heroism of daring to fight also describe Du Yuesheng's low-born character and his unscrupulous nature for interests. However, in the second half of the story, the author wrote a lot of business case analysis in the name of Du Yuesheng, which destroyed the integrity of the story.
It was a bit long and I don't know where I heard it.
The writing is pretty good and worth reading
This book is so well written! It is of profound significance to our young people!
Yes, it is a good book. That makes sense!
The context is clear and suitable for those who want to have a general understanding of Du Yuesheng.
The content is good and clearly written.
Okay ah ah ah ah ah ah
Telling history based on reality, good!
Rich content! Historical photo! An endless supply!
