Chapter 588 National Sentiment

Chapter 588 National sentiment

At noon that day, the spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs expressed serious protests on the illegal detention of Chinese fishermen by Japan on behalf of China. He has suspended bilateral provincial and ministerial exchanges, terminated contacts between the two sides on increasing flights and expanding China-Japan's airline rights, and postponed the China-Japan coal work conference. Japan continued to seize the captain of our fishing boats to cause serious damage to China-Japan bilateral exchanges, and demanded that the Japanese side immediately and unconditionally return the captain of China-Japan. Japan's actions seriously infringed on China-Japan's territorial sovereignty and the personal rights of Chinese citizens, and demanded that the Japanese side apologize and compensate. If the Japanese side insisted on acting alone and mistakenly, China would take strong countermeasures, including the use of force, and all the consequences would be borne by the Japanese side.

Not long after the press conference of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs ended, the Japanese government immediately responded, saying that it was Japanese territory, so there was no territorial problem. Chinese fishing boats were not allowed to operate in Japan's territorial waters; when Japanese patrol boats were carrying out deportation operations, they were hit by Chinese fishing boats, so they arrested the Chinese captain for suspected obstruction of public service. Japan will deal with it under domestic law, and at the same time announced the delay in releasing the illegal captain of Chinese fishing boats, and extend the illegal detention period by another 10 days.

Over the past few decades, Japan has been constantly trying to turn China into its colony. During decades of exchanges, the Chinese discovered that Japan's powerful power came from its nationalism itself. Therefore, threats and role models combined into one. China achieved a complete national awakening during the May Fourth Movement and the War of Resistance. The relationship between China and Japan has since become the most likely area to arouse people's emotions. Therefore, when this news from Japan was broadcast, it immediately caused an uproar in the land of China. On that day, many Chinese people spontaneously went to the Japanese Embassy to China and the American Embassy to hold a demonstration against Japan, because at this moment, all ethnic groups felt that their country was strongly insulted, challenged and threatened due to insufficient strength.

The Chinese government regards the ship collision as an important event that affects its prestige in China and has taken a rare tough attitude. After the Japanese side announced the postponement of detention of the captain of the Chinese fishing boat, the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs immediately took severe response measures, postponed the visit of Japanese youth to China and stopped some trade with Japan. If the Japanese government still insists on its own, the Chinese government will not rule out termination of all exchanges with Japan, nor will it rule out that it will engage in a local war with Japan.

The "response measures" of the Chinese government's attacks on all sides will not only affect Japan, but also affect the lives of Chinese people who learn Japanese, work for Japanese companies, and make a living by buying and selling Japanese goods. However, in the Chinese domestic public opinion circle, there is almost no voice questioning the rationality of these response measures. This is undoubtedly the role of nationalism. The Chinese government can play more cards than Japan this time, because the Chinese government adapted to the "public opinion" of China's whole country, and also made the Chinese people, who were originally full of disappointment in the Chinese government, regain confidence in the Chinese government.

There are two countries in the world now known for their strong national sentiment, namely South Korea in Asia and Poland in Europe. One of them will rebel every day and the other will rebel every day. Therefore, many Korean people have expressed their support for the Chinese people's actions, and some Korean people working in China have even participated in the march.

Although Wu Tianlin was just a doctor, his strong nationalism kept him paying attention to the progress of the situation at all times. However, when he saw the United States stand up again to promote Japan, the anger in his heart was ignited again, and it also made him understand that the so-called friendship between countries is nothing. When the United States stood up to support Japan for the first time, Wu Tianlin called the President of the United States, hoping that the United States would not interfere in the affairs between China and Japan. At that time, George also agreed to him that this was just a political need. Unexpectedly, just two days later, the United States stood up to support Japan again, which forced Wu Tianlin to face the cruel reality and also made Wu Tianlin mature a lot.

Wu Tianlin was very angry about George's backfire, so after the news that America supported Japan was broadcast, he called William to his office while considering the solution.

Not long after, William came to Wu Tianlin's office. William walked into the office and saw him sitting in front of Wu Tianlin with a serious face. He knew that Wu Tianlin must have something to worry about, so he asked Wu Tianlin: "Teacher! What's the matter with you calling me over so anxiously?"

When Wu Tianlin saw William arrive, he first reached out and signaled William to sit down in the seat opposite his desk, and then spoke with a serious look on his face: "William! Have you watched the press conference of the Secretary of State of America today?"

"Teacher! I saw it. I was not surprised by this situation. From the beginning, I knew that America would definitely support Japan, because Japan is an important pawn that restricts the development of China." William had already guessed what Wu Tianlin wanted to do when he heard Wu Tianlin's words. After all, when Wu Tianlin called American President George, he was by his side. At that time, he knew that George would definitely not let America go because of his personal relationship with Wu Tianlin. At that time, it was just to not undermine Wu Tianlin's confidence, so he didn't say it out. Now the facts have proved that his idea is correct, so he was not afraid of Wu Tianlin's dissatisfaction, and then he said the idea that had been buried deep in his heart for several days.

In the past, Wu Tianlin has always been very confident in his connections, especially after successfully dealing with the island prime minister, Wu Tianlin's self-feeling has become better and better. As a result, this incident made him understand one thing: in the face of interests, friendship is completely vulnerable, especially in the face of interests of countries, he is nothing at all.

When Wu Tianlin heard William's answer, he realized that he was too confident in the past. Although his personal relationship with George was good, he ignored George's identity as President of America. In the face of the interests of the country, his private feeling was not worth mentioning. Thinking of this, Wu Tianlin said with anger: "William! From the position of the United States, George is not wrong in doing this, but from the position of China, I will definitely not tolerate America interfering in the dispute between two Japanese and Chinese like the world's boss. So I want you to publish a press conference on behalf of me to protest the behavior of America, and warn the United States that if they still insist on doing it alone, we will directly cancel the United States to study in China and end the acceptance of cancer patients in America."

William clearly hesitated for a while when he heard Wu Tianlin's order. It was not because he was worried about anything, but because many doctors in Guangming Hospital are from the United States. Although they have been following Wu Tianlin for several years, he is still worried that Wu Tianlin's actions will cause dissatisfaction among these colleagues, so he did not forget to persuade Wu Tianlin: "Teacher! I want to ask you to think twice before you act. Many colleagues in our hospital are from the United States. If they learn that you have publicly refused to accept patients in the United States, they will definitely be dissatisfied."

Wu Tianlin had considered this before, but for him, the most important thing at the moment was to prevent the United States from interfering in the dispute between China and Japan. So after repeated considerations, he still made such a decision. He said to William with a firm look on his face: "William! You are responsible for holding a press conference. As for those colleagues, I will talk to them in person later."

When William heard Wu Tianlin's answer, he was still worried and said to Wu Tianlin: "Teacher! Even if you can persuade those colleagues to understand your behavior, your method may not be effective for America."
