At 10:34 in the evening on April 13, 2011, this day will be remembered by many Japanese people. In the past two decades, the earthquake in Japan caused the largest casualties in terms of people and property.

The Great Kobe Earthquake in 1995, but after this day, the status of the Great Kobe Earthquake in the hearts of Japanese people, except for the local people in Kobe who had direct knowledge of the earthquake at that time, was as the "April 13 East Japan Earthquake"

replaced.

The Japan Meteorological Agency announced three minutes after the earthquake occurred that the epicenter was located in the western Pacific Ocean east of Miyagi Prefecture. The magnitude was 9.2. The earthquake was clearly felt in the Tokyo metropolitan area and a high-level tsunami was sent to the Pacific coast of Honshu Island, Japan.

alarm.

The Chinese government later announced that, according to the National Seismological Network, an earthquake with a magnitude of 8.9 occurred in the Western Pacific Ocean at 22:34 on April 13, Beijing time, and was felt in the Beijing-Tianjin-Yan area.

The United States Geological Survey also announced that it detected an 8.9-magnitude earthquake in the Pacific Ocean of Japan, and issued tsunami warnings or tsunami watch reports in many places.

The seismic monitoring departments of South Korea, Russia, Australia and other countries have also successively released news of earthquakes in Japan.

Two days later, on April 15, seismic monitoring agencies from many countries, including the Japan Meteorological Agency, the China National Seismological Network and the United States Geological Survey, revised the magnitude of the "413 East Japan Earthquake."

It was finally determined to be a magnitude 9.4 earthquake! Since the official record of earthquakes, the magnitude 9.4 "Great East Japan Earthquake" ranked second in the world. The 9.5 magnitude earthquake that occurred in Chile in 1960

magnitude earthquake and the 1964 Alaska nine-point magnitude 2 earthquake ranked first and third respectively!

The Japanese Parliament Building is located in Chiyoda District, Tokyo. It is a tall modern white building with a convex middle part, shaped like a pyramid spire. The left and right sides are symmetrical and each is rectangular. The House of Representatives is on the left and the Senate is on the right, each with three floors.

At its main entrance, there are bronze statues of Ito Hirobumi, Okuma Shigenobu, and Itagaki Taisuke. Surrounding it are the Prime Minister's Official Residence, the Parliament Building, the Press Club, and the Library of Congress and other famous buildings in Tokyo.

Although it was already dark, the lights in the Capitol were still bright. Moreover, on the streets outside the Capitol, hundreds of Japanese citizens held various flags and slogans and protested loudly.

About thirty or forty meters away from the protesting crowd, two TV Tokyo interview cars were parked. Yamashita Ai stood beside the car, looking at the protesting crowd in the distance with a gloomy face. Even here, she could clearly see

I heard that those people were mainly protesting Yukio Hatoyama's delay in approving the three major power companies to restart nuclear power units to ensure Japan's domestic power supply.

As the deputy director of TV Tokyo, Yamashita Ai naturally does not need to go to the front line to conduct interviews. She just comes to check on the situation. As time goes by, Japanese society is unable to start power supply to more than 30 nuclear power units. Normally

There are growing concerns that production and life cannot be guaranteed. There are also protesting crowds not only at the Capitol, at the Prime Minister's official residence, and in front of the main departments of the Japanese government. And now at night, there are already huge crowds.

Reduced. When there were the most people, more than 1,500 people gathered in front of the Prime Minister’s residence!

Although it is not uncommon for people to gather in protest in Japan, Yamashita Ai has the feeling that huge waves may rise under the calm sea at any time, and Hatoyama Yukio's cabinet is just a small boat on the sea.

At this level of her profession, the source of information is naturally not comparable to that of ordinary people. She heard that the reason why Hatoyama Yukio repeatedly denied the restart of nuclear power units was because there were signs that Japan might have a major disaster in the future.

Earthquake, worried about causing a nuclear accident. Then she contacted the theory repeatedly emphasized by experts in many media recently, as well as the frequent disaster relief drills in various places during this period, as well as the location of the nuclear power plants, and she naturally understood a little bit.

.She wondered whether Fang Mingyuan had issued some kind of warning to Yukio Hatoyama. Considering the uncontrollable consequences in all aspects, the government did not publicly release it. After the 7.0-magnitude earthquake, it may have been

Many people believe that the natural disaster has passed, so they are eager to restart nuclear power units.

Then I contacted Fang Mingyuan who had been in Japan before, but left Japan after the 7.0 magnitude earthquake... Of course Yamashita Ai believed in Fang Mingyuan. She went to the scene of the Kobe Earthquake in person. Yamashita Ai watched it

One glance at the brightly lit Capitol Building filled my heart with worry.

With a tired look on his face, Yukio Hatoyama, accompanied by his entourage, went to the Economy, Trade and Industry Committee of the House of Representatives. The conference room was quite large. When Yukio Hatoyama entered, there were already dozens of members of the Economy, Trade and Industry Committee present. Look.

When Hatoyama Yukio came in, all these people stood up and saluted him. However, Hatoyama Yukio could clearly feel that most of these people were perfunctory when saluting him, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

He breathed a sigh of relief. He was not a strong prime minister to begin with, and now he has become a lame duck prime minister. His decrees are controversial even within the Democratic Party, so how can they be implemented smoothly? He only hopes that for the upcoming

For the coming disaster, those officials could be more attentive to all the preparations they had made before.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, the committee is deeply grateful to you for still taking the time to come to the committee to listen to the opinions of the committee members in person despite your busy schedule." Chairman Nagata Shoji said seriously, "It is already mid-April.

, the first quarter report on our country’s economy has been basically completed..."

Yukio Hatoyama sat in his seat with his eyes slightly closed, listening to the reports of the chairman and members of the Economy, Trade and Industry Committee. He knew that this meeting, which originally only required the Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry to attend, required him to attend.

Come on, to put it bluntly, these committee members, including members of the Democratic Party, are expressing and venting their dissatisfaction to themselves in this way.

Japan's economic growth is not optimistic at this time when the global economic crisis is rampant. The six nuclear power plants of the three major power companies with more than 30 nuclear power units are forcibly suppressed by themselves and are not allowed to restart power generation. This is not only a problem for the three major power companies.

The power company is dissatisfied, which has also made many companies and residents in the area angry. In their view, insufficient power supply has seriously affected their production and life. And the anger and dissatisfaction of voters will naturally affect these congressmen.

them.

In the past, there were six major consortiums behind them. Even if these congressmen faced the dissatisfaction of voters, they could only endure it with gritted teeth. But now, among the six major consortiums, only Mitsui and Sumitomo have clearly supported it. Mitsubishi

The two major consortiums, including Mitsui and Furong, have clearly stated that they are on the opposite side of themselves. Many congressmen, including those who are in the camp of the two major consortiums, Mitsui and Sumitomo, have naturally changed their attitudes.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, please listen carefully to the speeches of the members!" Someone suddenly said loudly, "If Your Excellency the Prime Minister is feeling tired, we can consider postponing the remaining meetings to a suitable time."

Hatoyama Yukio followed the voice and looked over. The speaker was Kitada Sawami, a beautiful member of the Liberal Democratic Party. She was thirty-six years old and was once a female disciple of Yoshihiko Hayada. What made her famous in Japan was that in 2009

At the end of the year, it was discovered that she had worked as an adult magazine reporter, adult writer, etc., and had appeared naked in a horror film. Although in Japan, people would not be particularly discriminated against in this profession, it also caused a stir at the time.

It caused quite a stir.

Hatoyama Yukio frowned, but before he spoke, Kitada Zemi said loudly: "I don't know if the Prime Minister has understood our country's operating conditions in the first quarter of this year. If you have, please listen.

The voices of committee members and the people. Insufficient power supply has become an important reason that seriously restricts our country's economic recovery. The business community and the people are very dissatisfied with this. We have also repeatedly proposed to the cabinet that if Tokyo Electric Power Company, including

If there is anything dissatisfied with the three major power companies in the country, the Prime Minister can definitely explain it. These nuclear power units have been inspected for nearly two months. On the one hand, there is a serious shortage of power supply in the country; on the other hand, there is a serious shortage of power supply in the country.

Taiwan’s nuclear power units have to sit idle, which is a serious waste and irresponsibility!”

Before Kitada Zemi's voice fell, another Liberal Democratic Party member said loudly: "I agree with Representative Kitada's view. Your Excellency, the Prime Minister, should listen carefully to the voices of the members and the people. Our country is short of resources and has a large population. Import and export trade is the key to national economic development.

As the mainstay of the economy, due to insufficient supply, many companies in central and northern Honshu Island had to limit production and reduce production, which caused great losses to the companies, increased unemployment, and social unrest. Your Excellency, as the Prime Minister, has never said anything about this.

A clear answer, this is a serious dereliction of duty!"

"In the previous stage, relevant government departments conducted a general survey of nuclear power plants in our country. Experts believed that the breakwater design of these nuclear power plants, including Tokyo Electric Power Company, was problematic and could not provide limited protection against the damage caused by an incoming tsunami.

Risk. I believe you have all noticed that these domestic nuclear power plants are currently strengthening and heightening their breakwaters. These six nuclear power plants are all located on the seaside, and their highest breakwaters can only protect against tsunamis of 5.3 meters high. This is

A very serious safety hazard!" Yukio Hatoyama said solemnly, "Some people may think this is not a big deal, but every shocking major accident is actually caused by small things. The Chernobyl nuclear accident

The accident is a lesson for us!”
