Chapter 994 People from the bottom of the Pacific Ocean Chapter 995 Ninety-eight(2/3)

Niko of course noticed Feimu's expression. He patted Feimu's shoulder to show comfort, and then turned his face to continue saying: "This organization is an absolute crazy military organization, advocating that the army personnel arrangements should be mainly those from the Army University. We strive to obtain important positions in the Army Province and the General Staff Headquarters. Among these people, the most important point is to infringe on Northeast China and Inner Mongolia to obtain Japan's rights and interests in Northeast China. What they pursue is a typical aggression proposition. This is the list of the main leaders of this organization."

Nico Powers took a piece of paper from his bag and handed it to me.

There are many names of people on it, all marked in English and Japanese. Seeing these names, my hands trembled due to anger.

I am so familiar with the name on this!

There is Seishiro Itagaki, known as the "Kanto Army's Knife", which is the number one general invading China. He is also an unyielding executioner. There is the leader of the invasion of China and was then the governor of the Hong Kong occupation land. There is Kenji Dohira, who was ruled as a Class A war criminal after the war. There is the chief of staff of the "North China Front Army" in World War II later responsible for attacking Malaya, the general planner of the Japanese invasion strategy in Singapore, and the general planner of the Japanese army's invasion strategy, and the Japanese soldiers called the "theoretical guide" by Japanese soldiers. There is the militarist leader questioning and advocating the conquest of Manchuria by force, and there is also the designated and implementer of the Nanjing Massacre. Among them, there is a name that makes me look like it: Hideki Tojo!

In addition to these people, there are many familiar names on it, and these people all became the leaders of the Japanese army during World War II. This one-night meeting was simply the cradle of the Japanese militarists in World War II!

"Boss, are you okay?" Seeing me holding the paper list in anger, Nico and others were stunned.

"You keep talking." I nodded.

Nico continued: "Since last year, all the leaders of the Japanese military headquarters began to obtain important positions, and Ishihara Kanir proposed the so-called Manchuria and Mongolian lifeline. He believed that if Japan wants to develop, it must occupy Manchuria and Mongolia."

"Japan is a country with extremely lack of resources. They value coal and other resources in Manchuria and Mongolia. During the Russo-Japanese War, Japan established the South Manchuria Railway Co., Ltd., which has been coveting Manchuria and Inner Mongolia for a long time." Ozu added.

"Ozu is right!" Nico nodded.

"In fact, Japan has long had the desire to invade China. Not to mention that Toyotomi Hideyoshi, if I remember correctly, Japan issued the "Outline of Policy toward China" in 1927, in which they also mentioned: If you want to conquer China, you must first conquer Manchuria and Mongolia, and if you want to conquer the world, you must first conquer China. If China is completely surrendered to our country, other foreign submission tribes such as Asia Minor, India, and Southeast Asia will fear me and respect me and surrender to me." I said in a sarcastic tone.

Nico continued: "Boss, Japan is now in a state of unrest, militarists have already gained the upper hand, and at home, they have begun to actively prepare for invasion. In addition, they have made sense to some domestic political dissenters and organizations. In the past few months, Songzhu has been targeted. According to the internal news we received, it will be a matter of time before Songzhu is banned. In addition, the Japanese are also alert to our Asian trading company, but there will be no action in the short term, because after all, we are Americans. But I think our business in Japan and in the Korean Peninsula should be transferred."

"You can do this matter as you please. If you change it, you must not fall into the hands of those beasts. Of course, you must try your best to let our people dive in Japan, and obtain information in the future, etc. will come in handy." I nodded.

"I understand this." Nico took out his notebook and began to write it down.

"I agree to the transfer of industries in Japan, but why is the transfer of industries on the Korean Peninsula?" Gans was a little confused.

"Gans, that peninsula has now become a bridgehead for the Japanese army. Not only did the Japanese gather there, but many Koreans directly entered the Japanese army. Compared with the Japanese mainland, the environment in the North Korean colony was even worse." Nico smiled bitterly: "I really don't understand those people. There were not many people resisting from the beginning. Most of them obediently lowered their heads and bowed their waists and became minions, and sometimes they were even more arrogant than the Japanese."

"They always have this tradition." I motioned for Nico to continue.

"Since the matter of transferring assets is decided so, my task is completed, and it's time for Femu to come." Nico lit a cigarette.

"Boss, China is afraid it will be in crisis!" Fei Mu's first words stunned me!

After Nico analyzed the situation in Asia, especially Japan, we immediately made the decision to transfer assets, but after a sentence of Feimudi's words, it was like a bombshell that made me dizzy.

There is a crisis in China!?

This sentence almost made me stand up.

I looked at Fei Mu and the corners of my mouth twitched.

"Mr. Ozu and I come here this time to do something in the movie." Fei Mu looked at Ozu, and the two of them looked firm.

"What's the matter?" I asked.

"Boss, I heard from Nico that the Japanese might make big moves this year. And the situation in Northeast China became unprecedentedly nervous last year. Ozu and I wondered if we could shoot some movies of this kind of theme to inspire peace and inspire the people." Fei Mu looked at me and said nervously.

"The Japanese have a big move?" I looked at Nicota.

"It's very likely!" Nico answered firmly: "The Japanese have always attached great importance to the issue of the Northeast. At that time, Japan cooperated with a warlord named Zhang Zuolin in the Northeast. Later, Japan felt that this person was disobedient. It was an obstacle. He killed him in 192. They hoped that through this matter, the situation in Northeast China would be without a leader, and it would be beneficial to their control. But what these guys could not have imagined was that the incident they planned not only did not cause chaos in the Northeast, but also had the opposite result, that is, the heir of Zhang Di. His son Zhang Xueliang announced the change of the flag at the end of 1928.

The young man accepted the leadership of Nanjing, and because his father died at the hands of the Japanese, the young man had a disagreed attitude towards Japan, and began to build new railway facilities near the South Manchuria Railway, competing with Japan through low prices. This led to the South Manchuria Railway in Japan falling into a business crisis. The Japanese Kanto Army kept protesting, and the young man was unwilling to compromise. At the beginning of this year, Kanji Ishihara and Seishiro Itagaki who served in the Japanese military headquarters had the idea of ​​launching a war to win the dominance. What they lacked was probably just an excuse. As long as the conditions were ripe, they would definitely do it."

Nico's words made my mind messed up. His previous analysis would have excited me. Now I have thrown out such a message, which makes me feel even more anxious.

I realized that I seemed to have missed something. This thing is the most important thing in all things, but as for what seems clear, I can't explain it clearly for a moment.

"Northeast... Zhang Xueliang... Kwantung Army... Railway... Railway... Railway!?" Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed in my mind!

"My God! Look at my damn head! How could I forget this matter!" I patted my forehead hard!

A group of people from other places looked at me and all became stunned.

"Boss!?What's wrong?" Fei Mu asked.

"Nine.18!Nine.18!" I recited it loudly in my heart, but did not answer Fei Mu.

I said why I felt I was ignoring something. This year was 1931. September 18 of this year was later the National Humiliation Day! People in later generations knew very well that on this day, the Japanese Kwantung Army bombed the Liutiaohu Railway and slandered that it was an attack by the Chinese army and attacked the Beidaying, the Northeast Army's headquarters. Because Zhang Xueliang had ordered the Northeast Army not to resist before, the Beidaying troops retreated without making fierce resistance. Later, under the order of the Kwantung Army Commander Shima Honjo, Japan launched an attack on the main enrichment of the Northeast. Due to the non-resistance policy, the Japanese army occupied more than 1 million square kilometers of the three northeastern provinces in less than half a year!

And such a thing must be heard before you, and it will happen in the second half of the year!

I walked around the grass, my chest filled with anger and reluctance.

When others saw me like this, they stood by and didn't dare to speak.

"Boss, when I came, the Japanese side had already started to create public opinion in China. This public opinion was said to be caused by two Japanese soldiers." Nico added: "It seems that two Japanese soldiers named Nakamura and Isugi conducted a military investigation in Northeast China. On the surface, it was an investigation, but it was actually a spy. The two were discovered by the Northeast Army. After the evidence was conclusive, a regiment commander of the Northeast Army ordered the execution of two Japanese soldiers. Japan took the opportunity to claim that the Northeast Army soldiers killed Nakamura because of money-making. Not only did they threaten China to hand over the regiment commander, but they also fanned the flames among the Japanese people. When I came, newspapers in Japan were promoting this matter. Many Japanese people who did not know the truth, especially soldiers, were shouting to go to war with China."

I paved on the grass and stopped suddenly.

I went to Feimu and Ozu and said, "You two really want to shoot a movie that celebrates peace?"

"Yes. Boss, this is how we think about it now, the situation is so tense, and we need such a movie." Fei Mu replied.

"But what if people never thought about peace from beginning to end and would definitely invade you?" I turned to look at Fei Mu and said.

Fei Mu was dumbfounded by my words and didn't know how to answer.

Yes. Their purpose is to promote peace well, but what is the use of such propaganda for a group of robbers?

"Jinglu, if you really want to shoot a movie like this, it will not only have no meaning, but will cause great harm." I lit a cigarette.

Fei Mu opened his eyes wide and said excitedly: "Why!? Boss, our wish is good!"

"I know this." I nodded: "No matter what you shoot, this movie will be screened after it is completed. And judging from the current terrain, it is unlikely that this movie will be screened in Japan, but can only be screened in China or in places like Hong Kong. Japanese people will not watch it. When you watch the movie, they are actively invading."

"And after watching this movie, the Chinese will be confused by the things on it. They will willingly believe that the current situation should be mainly peaceful. They will even comfort themselves in a way that deceives themselves: the main thing is mainly peace, and the Japanese will not fight. One side sharpens their knives, and the other side is paralyzed by this kind of thought and is unprepared. What will happen if you think??"

I stared into Fei Mu's eyes and asked softly.

Fei Mu stopped talking, his body trembled.

"But, boss, will we not take photos if we stump them??" Fei Mu was very unwilling.

"Of course I have to take a photo!" I suddenly laughed.

"What are you taking pictures!" Fei Mu's face was happy.

"I thought of going to China for a long time ago, and I never had this opportunity. It seems that this time, I will leave myself." I put out the cigarette butts and squinted my eyes and looked into the sky.

The United States is blue and sunny, but at the other end of the ocean, it is already covered with clouds.

"Boss, are you saying you want to go to China!?" Fei Mu grabbed my arm, and his face was distorted due to excitement.

"Why, I can't go?" I laughed.

"Boss, you have thought about it and you really want to go!" Gans was also anxious.

After all, I am the manager of DreamWorks. If the situation in China is so crisis-free, I will just go through it like this. If anything except anything else, DreamWorks will be over.

"Of course I have to go. I must go." I picked up Adolf and said while teasing him.

"Boss, the situation over there is very dangerous, and what have you done in the past? Make a movie!? What are you doing?" Nico obviously didn't agree with me going over.

"Yes, boss, China is too far from the United States. Once something happens to you, we can't handle it at all. And what if there is anything in DreamWorks, what will we do?" Gans also disagreed.

"I don't need to take care of me when I go there. We have branches and factories there, and there is a group of friends. The Chinese government should not make any trouble for me, nor do Chinese people. They don't regard them as my most sincere friends. As for the Japanese, they should not be stupid enough to do anything to me. If they do me, the spit from the whole world can drown them. There will be no danger in my past."

"As for DreamWorks, I feel at ease with you here." I looked at Gans and shrugged.

"But boss, don't forget that if you go to China to shoot movies, you will have to stay there for at least a year or two. There are many important things to happen this year, and these things are important issues related to the development of our Lockett Consortium." Gans reminded me.

"You're talking about the presidential election, right?" I understood what Gans meant. In fact, I myself had a headache about this.

The second half of 1931 seems to be a troublesome one. For China, a major event will happen in the next six months, and for the United States, the next six months are also very important because it involves the presidential change.

Although the formal presidential election will not begin until 1932, because Rutman succeeded Herbert and was not the publicly elected president, and the United States encountered an unprecedented economic crisis, both the Democratic and Republican parties decided to start election propaganda in advance. That means that in the next six months, the U.S. land politics will undergo earth-shaking changes.

What's even more deadly is that Rutman. This guy is getting smarter and smarter now, and since Coolidge's previous warning, he made Roosevelt so violently.

This happened a week ago. At that time, Rutman submitted a proposal at a meeting of Congress. In this proposal, he claimed in a very humble tone that he was replacing Herbert. Hoover was doing his best in the time of presidential rights, but he always felt that he was not a real elected president. So he decided to resign from the presidential position at the end of 1931 and start the election again, and he hoped to become a Republican candidate and win the election in this capacity.

Rutman's proposal caused a huge shock in Congress. Many members of the parliament were stunned by his proposal. You should know that such a thing has never happened in the history of the United States. This incident also caused an uproar in society, and the public was surprised and the formula was discussed.

Many people applauded Rutman's decision, calling Rutman a real man. They believed that the president who took over the position of the president was indeed a bit unjustified. Rutman's decision to resign from the president's position and then fight for it openly is a real man's expression! These people praised Rutman's behavior, and also made Rutman's support soar.

In addition, some people questioned Rutman's behavior. They believed that although Rutman's behavior certainly reflects a man's demeanor, it does not comply with the provisions of national laws, and such behavior is not in line with national procedures.

Both opinions are in society. But the final result is: no matter which two opinions have the upper hand. The decision of Rutman was almost unanimously good, which made Rutman's reputation soar. In people's minds, Rutman became a reliable person and a trustworthy president.

But in fact, Rutman has his own little one to do so.

To some extent, Rutmann did not decide to resign and run again because he was not just accused of his reputation. This time, he played a very beautiful move.

On the day before the first episode of "Death Poetry Club", Rutman found me. At that time, Coolidge and I talked with him for a long time. Coolidge once analyzed his advantage in the election, that is, compared with Rutman, Roosevelt's reputation is not very good now, but if time goes on for a long time, Rutman will definitely not be Roosevelt's opponent. Therefore, if Rutman wants to win the next presidential election, he must not provide Roosevelt with enough time, and cannot restore Roosevelt's reputation, and must fight quickly.

In fact, Rutman decided not to give up his position as president, but this time he did such a behavior and announced his resignation and election to better win the throne of the president. This just created the illusion that Rutman is a sincere and reliable president for the people, which is really a killing of two birds with one stone.

This time, he played so beautifully that Roosevelt was tricked by him, and then he had trouble saying it.

Faced with Rutman's decision, Roosevelt could not express any criticism, he could only knock his teeth and swallow it.

Rutman's decision also advanced the US presidential election by one year. The national referendum in 1932 mentioned the second half of 1931, which means that the birth of the next president will be several months later.

This is a very critical period. For DreamWorks, DreamWorks' Pokemon is all in Rutman. If Roosevelt wins, it will undoubtedly be a nightmare for DreamWorks, which is absolutely not allowed.

And more importantly, in the next few months, Rutman especially needs our support in the media, especially his publicity. Such an important thing, without me, DreamWorks will definitely be in a mess. Although Coolidge can share part of the work, sometimes he will not be able to replace me.

Now, conflicts arise.
