Continue the Bad Relationship

Wedge: On November 29, 1845, the Qing government's Su Song Taibing Beidao Gong Mujiu and the British consul George + Balfour jointly promulgated the "Shanghai Land Lease Regulations" and established the Shanghai Concession. Since then, the American Concession and the French Concession have been established one after another. The joint concession was established in 1854. In 1862, the French Concession became independent from the Union Concession. Although foreigners still had the final say on many things in the concession, in the early years of the Republic of China, the situation gradually changed. As the domestic people's concept of national sovereignty gradually strengthened and national sentiment rose rapidly, major changes occurred in the Sino-foreign relations in the concession, and the situation began to develop in a direction favorable to the Chinese. At the same time, some outstanding Chinese emerged among the foreigners. In the process of constantly fighting for the interests of the Chinese, they gradually formed a situation of rivalry with the foreigners. One of them was Akira Sendō. Akira Sendō, as a famous Chinese barrister, was recommended by Shanghai Mayor Yuzumi Jun to serve as a director of the French Concession Public Board, thus becoming the first Chinese director of the French Concession!
