Fu was appointed Political Vice-Minister for Foreign Affairs in August 1941, and appointed ambassador to the U.S.S.R. in January 1943. After his retirement in 1949 to 1956, he returned to work for Chiang Kaishek as President of the Anti-Corruption Board and Vice President of the Judicial Yuan in Taiwan 1956-1965.
