Chapter 314: Geese and Galaxies

The secret change of the Mitsubishi Consortium is actually a change in the attitude of the Sun Country. This is not a change of the Mitsubishi Consortium alone, but a change in the entire Sun Country society.

In other words, it is a major change in East Asia, even Asia, and even the world.

Mitsubishi's transformation can only be said to be a microcosm of the broader environment.

Looking back, the situation in East Asia at this time has changed dramatically from a few years ago.

Although the number of people traveling to the Kingdom of the Sun has increased dramatically in the past, this does not mean that the previous relationship was friendly. The relationship between the two parties was complicated and complicated.

Relevant agencies have conducted a survey, which shows that the number of Sun people who have a favorable impression of Dongtang is still at a very low level, and this is not only true among the people, but also in their political circles.

Why was the pro-Tang faction in the Kingdom of the Sun so weak before?

This is mainly because the two parties have more conflicting interests than common interests. Let's first take a look at the relationship between the two parties in recent decades, and everyone will naturally have an idea.

Domestic people-to-people diplomacy with the Sun Country began in the 1960s, and the relationship has been quite good.

Then the two sides resumed normal diplomatic relations. The most famous one was Tanaka's visit to Tang Dynasty, which intensified the warming of relations between the two sides.

Time passed from the 1970s to the mid-1980s. The economy of the Sun Country was developing at a rapid pace, but the economy of the Mili Family was stagnant.

They ushered in a series of prosperity such as the "Shenwu Boom" and "Olympic Boom". The entire Sun Kingdom was in great shape, and its economy reached an unprecedented level of prosperity.

So they began to move around, testing various bottom lines, trying to challenge various ideas of the Mi Li family.

I feel that if I continue to develop like this, I will be able to make a comeback one day and be on an equal footing with the Mi Li family.

So the Kingdom of the Sun began his journey of making friends in Asia, and the idea of ​​the "Co-Prosperity Sphere" had not dissipated in their minds. They secretly made small calculations in their hearts, imagining that they could represent the entire Eastern world and compete with the Western world.

Then they began to secretly boast that they were the leader in Asia, and of course they provided a large amount of aid and interest-free loans to the Eastern Tang Dynasty and Southeast Asian countries.

The country is the biggest beneficiary of these aids.

Domestic aid began in 1979. The form of aid includes low-interest loans, free aid and technical assistance.

This kind of systematic and all-round assistance is unprecedented.

By the end of 2009, their total domestic aid reached approximately US$35 billion, and this US$35 billion accounted for about 40% of domestic foreign aid loans.

And 90% of these aids are low-interest loans and are used for domestic infrastructure projects, such as railways and power stations.

It was only in 2008 that they stopped the low-interest loan program.

And to this day, free aid and assistance projects are still maintained.

In fact, the Kingdom of the Sun still has its own calculations in terms of assistance.

In these aid projects, the vast majority of aid funds are required to purchase products from designated Sun Country enterprises.

In layman's terms, they provide the start-up capital, and the country is responsible for earning the hard-earned money, and most of the remaining money goes back to their pockets.

Of course, for the country at that time, this matter was indeed a win-win strategy for everyone to get what they needed.

In the 1970s and 1980s, it was the time when the rabbit and the old furry bear were in tit-for-tat. Only by establishing good relations with countries such as the Sun Kingdom could one's own situation not be passive and embarrassing.

But in the 1980s and 1990s, two major international events occurred.

The first was the Plaza Accord that set the Sun Country’s economy back thirty years.

This agreement made it impossible for them to get beyond breaking free, while at the same time crushing their swollen hearts and making all their plans come to nothing.

The second one is that the old furry bear has a lunch box. This greatly reduces the external threat to the rabbit.

Therefore, it was at this time that Rabbit shifted its strategic focus to East Asia and Southeast Asia, while the Sun Kingdom's strategic focus was also in East Asia and Southeast Asia.

The high degree of overlap in the strategies of the two sides in Asia is the beginning of the conflict of interests between the two sides.

The Sun Country's economic layout in Southeast Asia and East Asia mainly relies on the "flying goose model".

This model is to continuously transfer the eliminated industries of their own countries to East and Southeast Asia, and use these eliminated enterprises to exert influence on the countries and economies that receive the industry transfer, and the economic base determines the superstructure. They His ambition is very obvious.

The essence of the "Flying Goose Model" is that the country that eliminates industrial transfers is determined by the Sun Country, and no country they can control will have a complete industrial chain.

Therefore, the entire East Asia and Southeast Asia must collaborate and be highly dependent on them, so that this Asian division of labor system can survive.

In fact, they are creating an Asian version of a small "WTO" controlled by the Sun Kingdom.

After 1978 in China, hundreds of millions of industrial workers entered the world market, causing the country's wild goose model to be undermined invisibly at home.

Because at this time, Dongtang became a veritable "world factory", with the cheapest workers in the world, and the place with the highest input-output ratio in the world.

However, the whole world is flocking to domestic industrial transfer, resulting in the Sun Country being quite weak in transferring its overseas industries.

Moreover, Western countries often transfer entire production lines to Dongtang in order to save trouble and avoid communication troubles.

Completely shattered the plan of the flying goose pattern.

Coupled with the economic development of the Eastern Tang Dynasty, it itself is constantly breaking the Sun Country's dream of dominating Asia.

So at this time, the relationship between the two parties gradually turned from passionate to cold.

After all, only one person can have the final say on the same layout, so the two sides competed with each other overtly and covertly at this time, fully competing in various fields and industries, and a competitive situation of "you without me" emerged.

Therefore, the conflict of interests between the two parties is much higher than the common interests, and it is difficult to achieve a win-win situation. Therefore, there are quite few pro-Tang Sun people.

In the current era, as the power of Dongtang and the Galaxy Consortium continues to expand, and the borders of interests continue to expand, the highly overlapping layouts of the two parties have led to the fact that if we take a step forward, they must take a step back.

But this situation was just a transitional period before. As Dongtang and the Galaxy Consortium became increasingly powerful, the Sun Kingdom now had to re-examine the relationship between the two parties.

Because now the Sun Kingdom has begun to turn around and needs to rely on Dongtang and Galaxy Consortium to develop its economy.

A new pattern has initially taken shape in Asia. When the power of Dongtang and the Galaxy Consortium becomes too strong, a satellite effect will automatically form.

What is the satellite effect?

That is, when the mass of a planet is so strong that its surroundings cannot resist it, these surrounding small planets will have to change their orbits and become satellites of this big planet.

This is the gravitational capture of massive (big force) planets, because it is difficult for small planets (small forces) to resist such a powerful force field unless they are very far away.

The problem is that Sun Kingdom, Gaoli, Mobei and Southeast Asia are at their doorstep, and they are destined to be unable to escape.

Especially after the fall of Gaoli, the Kingdom of the Sun has become an area where various forces are fighting against each other.

Toyota, Nissan, Honda, Mitsubishi and other large consortiums behind the solar car companies are now changing their previous attitudes, and some people have tried to reach an agreement with the Galaxy Consortium.
