Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up
Chapter 1777 Uproar
Unlike other countries, Japan itself is an island country; shipping is related to the country's economic lifeline. Today, the Xincheng was framed by the British, and Japan didn't react at all; next time, maybe which country will cause trouble. They all think you are easy to bully. In the future, it will be difficult to ensure the safety of Japanese cargo ships sailing on the sea.
In a country that cannot even guarantee the interests of legitimate businesses, why should companies and businessmen pay taxes? It can be said that all cabinet members have failed in their duties and will never allow this to happen.
Takeshita Noboru said very seriously: "I can understand your feelings. Japan is definitely not a country that can be manipulated by others. Let alone a declining aristocracy in the UK, even if the sun never sets in its heyday, so what?"
"Foreign Minister Uno Sosuke organized a press conference and invited as many world-renowned media as possible; let the whole world take a good look at the shameless behavior of the British."
"At the same time, be prepared to expel British diplomats and counterattack British merchant ships. As an island country, Japan mainly relies on maritime transportation to maintain its lifeline. If the safety of its own merchant ships cannot be guaranteed, how can the lives of the people be guaranteed."
"It would be a painful period for Japan to break up with the British; it would even be isolated by European countries. But the attitude of the Germans in sending intelligence to us actually made me very confident."
“When it’s time to be tough, we must be tough; otherwise, it will be difficult for Japan to turn around.”
The Prime Minister has characterized the matter and given specific opinions; the people below just need to implement them seriously.
As for Foreign Minister Uno Sosuke, he did not dare to have any objections. Noboru Takeshita is about to step down, and he has a high chance of taking over as Prime Minister of Japan; this is a critical period. If this matter cannot satisfy the domestic people, let alone take over as prime minister; it is hard to say whether he can secure the position of foreign minister!
After seeing that no one had any opinions, Noboru Takeshita continued: "Everyone, we had some differences before; but the starting point is to make Japan better; now we must abandon all partisanship and deal with the outside world unanimously."
"If we don't unite internally, how can we defeat a powerful enemy?"
Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and the same is true in Japanese politics; not everyone can completely convince the public, Noboru Takeshita is the prime minister; other parties will not fully support him.
Let's talk about the ugly things earlier. Once someone does something that hurts relatives and makes enemies happy, it is not a good thing for the country.
There was no response from Japan to the BBC report; at least this is the official attitude. Of course, some people still think it is impossible. After all, similar incidents have never happened before. As for the parent company of the Xincheng merchant ship, it is vigorously defending itself, claiming that the destination of the cargo ship is Brazil and that it did not carry any weapons and equipment before departure.
It also sounds like a lack of confidence. When a ship is sailing on the sea, anything can happen; if a crew member carries private goods, no one can guarantee it. The public security environment in Brazil is not very good, and guns and ammunition are very popular. The quality of domestic products is poor, but the profits from shipping them there are still very considerable.
Just because there were no problems at the time of departure does not mean that there were no problems during the voyage. In addition, the British are continuing to report, and we will decide whether we should wait until the crew comes back and ask questions about the situation.
If there is indeed a crew member carrying private goods, we must not tolerate it.
The Japanese, who had no response, suddenly wanted to hold a press conference; but this excited the media around the world. Could it be that the Japanese have some big tricks up their sleeves? Or are they ready to admit their mistakes?
The report by the British BBC has pictures and truth; it cannot deceive people at all.
As a defeated country in World War II, Japan did not learn its lessons; it still sold weapons and equipment to other countries. And it is still a country sanctioned by its allies. It must give an explanation to all countries in the world, especially the countries that were invaded in World War II.
Media from all over the world came to the Information Office of the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs with the mentality of watching the excitement.
The UK is indeed far behind from its heyday, but one thing is undeniable; that is influence. There are more than fifty countries and regions in the world that are inextricably linked to the British Empire.
Otherwise, with Britain's national power, it would not be that easy to sanction a country. Of course, under normal circumstances, there is the United States standing behind the United Kingdom. But this matter involves Japan, and even if Americans want to take sides, they can't do it too obviously. Neutral, not expressing any attitude; may be the best choice.
Lao Mei still does a very good job in this area.
As soon as people came over, Japanese Foreign Minister Sosuke Uno came to the rostrum in person. As foreign minister, I must take responsibility at this moment; otherwise, I will be derelict in my duty.
The spokesperson of the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs first made a brief statement and stated the purpose of holding the press conference.
The British media were very angry when they heard that the Japanese were still defending. Almost all British people believe that Japan must be selling weapons and equipment to Argentina; otherwise, with the strength of the Argentine army, how could it possibly shoot down the most advanced fighter jets of the British Empire.
The Japanese make money based on the bloodshed and sacrifice of British soldiers; this is absolutely intolerable.
People are very selfish, and so is the country. In the past few hundred years, Britain has become the world's most powerful country; it was not based on constant aggression. If you want to occupy the land of another country, your master will naturally not agree; a war between the two sides will naturally be inevitable.
The British used sharp firearms, but they massacred many ethnic groups who resisted the invasion.
And in order to provoke the people of Asia and Africa to resist the invasion of France, Germany and other European countries, they began to act as a stir-up; how many weapons and equipment were sold, have they forgotten all of this!
At present, Japan has not sold weapons and equipment to Argentina. Even if it is sold, it is a normal trade between the two sides. Looking at what is going on with the British, maybe the British are still silent in the period of the empire on which the sun never sets. I feel that all countries in the world must safeguard their interests; otherwise, it would be treason. There is no such truth in the world.
The Japanese have always emphasized that they have not sold weapons and equipment to Argentina, and they must be asked to provide evidence; when it was the reporter's turn to ask questions, the British BBC reporter certainly refused to do so.
To be precise, let the British BBC reporter be the first to ask questions; this was also intentional by the Japanese. I just want them to be arrogant for a while and then fight back hard.
A reporter from the British BBC asked: "Your Excellency, Foreign Secretary, the British Navy seized your country's New City cargo ship in the waters of the Falkland Islands. It was found that there was a lot of weapons and equipment inside, which is enough to prove that Japan has sold weapons and equipment to Argentina."
"As a defeated country in World War II, international law and the Japanese Constitution clearly stipulate that your country is not allowed to engage in military trade. In other words, the weapons and equipment produced can only be used by its own army. Now it is sold directly to Argentina. I hope Japan can provide it to the world. The people have an explanation.”
As expected, it was the BBC reporter who asked the question first, which made Uno Sosuke very happy; everything went according to plan.
How arrogant the British are at this time, how miserable they will be soon.
Sosuke Uno said very domineeringly: "Ms. reporter, regarding the Japanese cargo ship Shinjo transporting weapons and equipment to Argentina, it is just a unilateral statement by the British Navy; is this really true?"
"Even if the media reports, it is only the British BBC; is there no other behind-the-scenes operation here?"
"The Japanese side denies all relevant reports by the British BBC about Japan's Metro."
When you hear it, you deny it. Who gave the Japanese the courage? As one of the most lively countries in the world in recent times, and with its own highly developed economy, almost all the world's well-known media have offices in Tokyo.
No one expected that the Japanese would dare to speak harshly despite the fact that the evidence was solid.
The British BBC reporter directly countered: "Your Excellency, Foreign Secretary, I can understand your mood. Perhaps the Japanese government does not know that there are companies selling weapons and equipment to Argentina. But the possibility of sales cannot be ruled out. After all, in recent times; the economic situation of the entire Japan has not been Not very good, companies want to make profits; anything is possible!”
We must also give the other party a step down, as Japan's foreign minister; he is also the person with the highest voice for the next prime minister. No reporter wants to offend, especially current affairs and political reporters who deal with foreign ministries of various countries.
Of course, there are also some selfish motives, that is, to resonate with the reporters present. At this time, many people will wonder whether, as Japan's foreign minister, he can guarantee that domestic companies will do something that violates the law for the sake of huge profits.
In addition, the British Navy did find weapons and equipment on the ship. Facts speak louder than words; there is nothing to deny. The top priority is to apologize to the British Empire and discuss how to deal with the aftermath. This is not to hold a press conference to clarify, there is no need at all.
Uno Sosuke thought to himself, there really was someone who didn't know what he was talking about; the other person was just a reporter, and there was no need to argue with him in his capacity.
On the surface, it seems to be to excuse the Japanese government, but in fact, it has sinister intentions. Once admitted, the sale of weapons and equipment by Japanese companies to Argentina will be implemented directly.
Even if it is not the government's instruction, even if the official is completely unaware of it, the entire country cannot escape its involvement.
Without recording evidence, he might be led astray by the other party; now that Wang Zha is in hand, he can be afraid of anything.
Uno Sosuke said with a serious expression: "About the British Navy, is it completely credible?"
"As the oldest force in the world that has always maintained fine traditions and has the spirit of knights and nobility. What will it look like now? Will it become a group that distorts the facts and uses any means to achieve its goals? No one can guarantee."
"As a British person, we always believe in our own military. This is understandable. Or you can also say that as Japan's foreign minister, it is reasonable to prefer our own cargo ships."
"But everything must be based on facts; the BBC is just a British television station. It was quite respected before; but in recent years, the reports have become more and more deviated from the essence; it is really unbelievable."
After bombarding the British Navy, and then denying the BBC Broadcasting Company, Britain and Japan were completely at odds with each other and did not save any face for each other.
Journalists are known as the uncrowned king, and the BBC, as a world-renowned media, has never suffered such a loss. And this time, together with the Royal Navy, as the number one contributor to the British Empire's dominance of the world for hundreds of years; almost all aristocratic children are proud to serve in the Royal Navy.
But the Japanese are better off publicly slandering the Royal Navy of the British Empire. This is intolerable and intolerable. They must give an explanation and apologize at the same time.
At present, it is no longer a matter of the BBC media, but about the honor of the Royal Navy of the British Empire.
The BBC reporter has been working for decades and has never been angry like this. So he responded directly: "Your Excellency, Foreign Secretary, you must be responsible for what you say. The authority of the BBC cannot be doubted; the honor of the Royal Navy of the British Empire, No blasphemy is allowed."
"You must apologize, otherwise the people of the British Empire will never agree."
A reporter directly asked the foreign minister of another powerful country to apologize; did he take himself too seriously? To be precise, he did not recognize his identity.
Of course, if it is a particularly powerful country, or if the other party is obviously at fault, it is not impossible to directly angrily criticize it or ask it to apologize.
But at this time, the UK's economy was much worse than Japan's. It cannot be said that a good economy means a strong country, but the world is like this. You may not be able to do things with money; but it is almost impossible to do things without money.
At this time, Uno Sosuke was also extremely angry. A small reporter dared to ask him to apologize. Where did the confidence come from?
As the foreign minister of a country, you must not lose your grace; the purpose is to let the British get into their pockets and then make bigger moves.
Uno Sosuke sneered and said: "Ms. reporter, I can guarantee that your navy did not commit fraud in this incident, and the BBC broadcaster's report did not distort the facts."
She has been in Tokyo, and even the British Ambassador to Japan doesn't know the confidential information; how could she possibly know it. But I instinctively believe that Japan has sold weapons and equipment to Argentina; and with the video as evidence, it cannot be false at all.
A BBC reporter said very domineeringly: "Since its establishment, the BBC has always been adhering to the most objective news reporting; it will never make false news just because one party involves the interests of its own country."
"At the same time, the honor of the Royal Navy of the British Empire has been verified for hundreds of years; everyone in the world knows it very well!"
Hearing this, many reporters at the scene, including Sosuke Uno, wanted to laugh.
The British navy was mainly engaged in piracy at first, causing trouble for the Spanish all over the world. It was not until the Spanish Armada was defeated that it gradually became regularized. Looking back to the source, there is no honor at all; it is simply a joke.
Uno Sosuke said with a smile: "As Japan's foreign minister, I also represent the country's image. Without sufficient evidence, I will never slander any country, group, or individual."
"The Japanese have always adhered to the principle of seeking truth from facts. We do not take the initiative to stir up trouble; but once someone puts the shit basin on our heads, we will never allow it."
"The world situation is changing, it is no longer 100 years ago; I hope that the reporter will not speak in an arrogant manner; the person in front of you is the Japanese Foreign Minister, not the BBC News assistant who has just joined the job!"
As a fan, seeing Portugal eliminated, I suddenly feel that I am old and no longer the same! youth
