Chen You-jin

A left-wing politician and diplomat of the Chinese Nationalist Party. A Cantonese man born in Trinidad, a British colony in the West Indies, he trained as a barrister in Britain and met Sun Yat-sen in 1911. In 1912 he returned to Beijing and wrote anti-Yuan Shikai articles for the Beijing Gazette. In 1919 he became an adviser to the Chinese representatives at the Paris Peace Conference. In 1920 he returned to Shanghai, founded the Shanghai Gazette, and served as Sun Yat-sen's diplomatic adviser. After participating in the Sun Yat-sen-Joffe (Soviet envoy) talks, he strengthened his anti-imperialist and patriotic stance. In 1926 he became a member of the Nationalist Party's Central Executive Committee and Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Wuhan Nationalist Government, and in 1927 he succeeded in recovering the British concessions in Hankou and Jiujiang. In 1934 he became Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Fujian People's Government, but fled to Paris when that government collapsed. He returned to Hong Kong in 1938, was detained during the Japanese occupation of Hong Kong, and later engaged in public opinion activities in Shanghai.
