Chapter 464 Meeting with the heirs of the chaebol
Mitsubishi chaebol was the number one hero of Japan's victory in the Sino-Japanese War. At that time, Mitsubishi's owner Yahi Iwasaki and the leading figures in the Japanese financial circle at that time initiated the establishment of a parliament. Through the Japanese media, they promoted the spirit of loyalty and patriotism to the people, demanded that all citizens donate everything to defeat China, actively support the Japanese government to start a war against China, raise military expenses, and issue 80 million yen military bonds to the Japanese government.
Given the economic situation in Japan at that time, this was a shocking number.
At that time, the Mitsubishi chaebol also handed over the ships of its Japanese Shipping Company to the government to transport troops and deliver food. When the Japanese army attacked Weihai, Mitsubishi's ships were responsible for reconnaissance of the deployment of the Qing army in Weihai and helped the Japanese army successfully capture Weihai. After the Japanese army occupied Weihai, they bombarded the Beiyang fleet of the imperial court with cannons, and wiped out the entire army.
After the war, senior Japanese Navy general Ito Hiroshi expressed his gratitude and specially removed the rudder plate of the main Qing army warship Dingyuan and gave it to Mitsubishi Zaibao as a spoil.
Before and during World War II, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries was also the main force in the manufacturing of Japanese weapons, and built four aircraft carriers for the Japanese Navy. From the world's largest battleship Musashi at that time, to the most advanced Zero fighter jets, as well as various heavy, micro tanks and infantry fighting vehicles, arms products can be said to have covered land, sea and air. During the war, nearly 20,000 aircraft of various types and nearly 5,000 tanks and armored vehicles were produced, which were used in the war of aggression against China.
After the end of World War II, according to Japan's peace constitution, Japan was not allowed to own a military force, so naturally there should not be any military-industrial enterprises. However, due to the efforts of the Japanese and the condonation of the United States, Japan has always dealt with military-industrial enterprises in a low-key manner. In addition, its military-industrial enterprises also produce civilian products, so many people do not know that a Japanese-made electrical appliance, machinery, etc. in their daily use may be produced by Japanese-industrial enterprises.
Now Jiang Feng's heart suddenly became clear. Yusuke Iwaki wanted to see him at this time because he had actually controlled the rare earth resources in the mainland. It would not work for him to go to the wrong path, so if he wanted to solve the problem, he could only meet with him in person to achieve his goal.
"However, I have no plans to go to Japan recently." After learning about the other party's purpose, Jiang Feng was unmoved at all. He said to Ozawa in a slight voice, "Just pass on me and tell that Yusuke Iwaki. If you want to talk, you can let him come to China. Recently, I am unwell and cannot have a bumpy journey."
Of course, Masato Ozawa had no objection to Jiang Feng's words. He was just a memophone. Anyway, Yusuke Iwaki asked him to pass the message this time, which also gave him a lot of benefits.
Jiang Feng had already told him this kind of thing, so that the more benefits the better. As for whether the matter can be done, it is just a matter of two things. If it is done, it is because he is Ozawa Masato, and if it is not done, it is because you are Yusuke Iwaki. If it is done, there are too few benefits.
So Ozawa Masato conveyed Jiang Feng's meaning to Yusuke Iwaki, which made Yusuke Iwaki feel very dissatisfied. He had not met an opponent who needed to come to him for a long time.
Regarding the Chinese government's sudden order to suspend production and rectification of production and processing enterprises in rare earth mining areas, a large amount of public opinion has been created in the media in China, and it is impossible for foreign countries to have no news.
In fact, Yusuke Iwaki also has his own source of intelligence in mainland China. He knew that this time the matter was not easy to handle. The government had already asked someone to clear it up, but the answer he got was powerless. As for the private side, he sent someone to bribe the responsible person of the production company, but caused quite a lot of trouble. The two lines he had finally caught were also cut off.
This made him very confused. After he learned that Jiang Feng now had control over the rare earth resources, he found Xiaozawa, who had a special relationship with Jiang Feng, and asked him to talk to him on his behalf. However, he received such an answer. Jiang Feng actually said that he was not feeling well and could not have a bumpy journey. It was obviously clear that he had an attitude. If you want to talk about things, come to China.
"Kun Ozawa, are you still a Japanese? Don't you know how important rare earths are to our big Japan?!" Yusuke Iwaki had a domineering attitude towards Masato Ozawa, the nouveau riche.
However, Masahoon Ozawa is not allowed to be kneaded by them now. He said to Yusuke Iwaki with a sensation: "Mr. Iwaki, you can see clearly. I am an American citizen now and have nothing to do with Japan when doing business for Chinese entrepreneurs."
At the beginning, he was greatly hindered in Japan because he was worried that Masato Ozawa would help him. Because Jiang Feng would later dump a lot of things into Japan, Jiang Feng suggested that Masato Ozawa apply for immigration and obtain American nationality. Unexpectedly, it really works now.
Although Yusuke Iwaki was very annoyed, he didn't dare to provoke Ozawa again. After all, now he has become an American, and the US government's protection of American citizens can simply touch God, so he had to find another way.
Don’t those Chinese people take the initiative to sell their national interests as long as they have a little sweetness? Yusuke Iwaki felt a little puzzled. However, he also knew that people who can control all the rare earth resources in China are not ordinary people and need to be treated with caution. However, he did not want to go to China for negotiations in person. In this way, it would be impossible to take the initiative in negotiations.
So he thought about it for a while and came up with a countermeasure.
On this day, Jiang Feng was chatting with Mr. Ding Haoguo at Rong's family when he suddenly received a call, which was called by Li Yuhan, saying that he had received a notice from the city to participate in a Sino-Japanese youth friendly exchange event organized by the China-Japan Friendship Association in Hiroshima, Japan.
"Are you wrong?" Jiang Feng asked in surprise, "China-Japan friendship is nothing to do with me?"
Li Yuhan replied on the phone: "I'm also confused, but the invitation letter sent by the city is indeed clearly written. It is to invite Mr. Jiang Feng to participate. I wonder how they knew that you are the actual person in charge of our company?!"
Jiang Feng thought about it and couldn't figure out what was going on. However, Jiangzhou and Hiroshima, Japan, are friendly cities. He knew about this and there were commemorative activities every year. He also knew about this, but what did this have to do with him?
So he asked, "Did you engage in corporate negotiations to attract sponsorship? If that's the case, just give them some money and give them up. I won't go to Japan."
"Okay then." Li Yuhan agreed on the phone.
"Xiaofeng's business is busy. Did he chat with me, old man, delaying you a lot of big things?" The old man's spirit was much better. Seeing Jiang Feng answering the phone, he smiled and joked.
Jiang Feng smiled and said to the old man: "There is no big deal, I just mess around all day long."
The two continued to chat.
After a while, Jiang Feng's phone rang again. He answered it and saw that it was Li Yuhan.
"Xiaofeng, no!" Li Yuhan said on the phone, "The Municipal Office said that this event is a political task and requires you to participate. I have shirked you several times, but I can't even push you away. The attitude there is very firm."
This time, Jiang Feng felt something was wrong, so he asked, "Sister Yuhan, have you ever asked someone who is familiar with it, what's going on?"
"The people I have contacted have limited abilities and have not asked for specific content. I just said that this event was sponsored by the China-Japan Friendship Association and the candidates were also recommended by them. Some people emphasized that they should implement it. You are one of them." Li Yuhan replied.
"Oh, when will you set off?" Jiang Feng nodded and asked.
"The team will be gathered early the morning after tomorrow and set off on a chartered flight in the afternoon. The municipal office will accompany you throughout the journey." Li Yuhan replied.
"Well, I understand." Jiang Feng said.
"I want a sure-credit, when will it arrive?" Li Yuhan said again.
"Tell them, I understand. As for other things, I don't need to say more." Jiang Feng ordered, then thought for a while and added, "By the way, you don't need to call me again about this matter. Long-distance in China is also very expensive!"
Li Yuhan responded and hung up the phone.
After hanging up Li Yuhan's phone call, Jiang Feng began to think about it. The China-Japan Friendship Association has no contact with him. How could he know himself and add himself to the list to Hiroshima? There must be something wrong with this.
Thinking of the fact that he was leaving with Yusuke Iwaki recently, Jiang Feng immediately understood. This is the little Japanese who is giving himself eye drops through his influence!
Yusuke Iwaki gave him eye drops to him was not something worth being angry about, but what annoyed Jiang Feng was that someone in China helped him give him eye drops together, which made him more depressed.
However, the China-Japan Friendship Association should be a so-called non-governmental organization? At most, they just make suggestions. If they need to implement the work in detail, they have to rely on the municipal government to carry out the work. There must be an insider in the municipal office, otherwise such a tough notice would not be issued.
I can't go any further. What can you do with me? Jiang Feng thought very angry.
Jiang Feng is naturally not afraid of this. If he gets angry, he will launch a high-profile withdrawal of investment and personnel, and withdraw all the strongholds in Jiangzhou. The various construction projects that were originally going to be implemented in Jiangzhou will also be terminated. Who is in trouble when he sees it?
Jiang Feng did not tell Wei Hongjun about this. He didn't want to bother others in everything, especially such insignificant trivial matters, which would only make people look down on him. After all, his relationship with Wei Hongjun is far less reliable than his relationship with Wan Changling. (To be continued.
