Abstract : A translation of an interview conducted by Shen Yiqin, appearing in Dangshi Ziliao [Historical documents of the Chinese Communist Party] (1979). Liu Xiao, though sent from Yan'an to take control of the surviving Party elements in Shanghai in 1937, quickly adapted the central Party line to existing conditions and to the Party organization that survived in the city. Transferred to Chongqing in the spring of 1940, Liu was returned to Shanghai that same winter as the Japanese increased their pressure on the international concessions. He continued to work with the Shanghai Party members until ordered to move to the area controlled by the New Fourth Army in the winter of 1942.
