Shanghainese dominated Hong Kong’s film industry, the relocated textile factory owners boosted the region’s garment manufacturing, while Hong Kong’s first post-colonial chief executive, Tung Chee-Hwa, was the Shanghai-born son of a shipping magnate who fled to Hong Kong in 1949 and rebuilt his OOCL shipping line. Last Boat Out of Shanghai ultimately shows that in many cases old ties survived the long decades of Maoist isolation. Last Boat Out of Shanghai: The Epic Story of the Chinese Who Fled Mao’s Revolution, by Helen Zia, Ballantine Books, RRP$28.00, 544 pages Paul French is the author of ‘City of Devils: a Shanghai Noir’ Join our online book group on Facebook at FTBooksCafe.
