Yangshuura, Grand Ballroom of the Japan Navy Club.

The chief reporters of several major Western news agencies are gathering to chat.

TASS reporter Lotov asked with a bewildered expression: "Do you know what the reason for the sudden press conference of the Japanese garrison organs?" ”

Reuters reporter Jackson and Associated Press reporter Kevins shrugged their shoulders and said they didn't know.

Only AFP correspondent Hurd said: "I heard that it was for the Yinjiang Industrial Park. ”

After saying that, Hurd looked at Kevins with a gloating look, and he couldn't hide it with careful thought.

Because at the public level, the management of the Yinjiang Industrial Park is not actually the Yinjiang municipal government, but a board of directors openly elected by American and British business owners.

Although many Chinese-owned factories are located in the Yinjiang Industrial Park, it is Western business owners who are in charge, at least on a public level.

In other words, the Yinjiang Industrial Park is actually a weakened version of the public concession.

The only difference may be that the United States and Britain have jurisdiction over the public concession, but in the Yinjiang Industrial Zone, they only have the power to engage in economic activities, and they have no judicial power or anything.

However, there are no French companies in the Yinjiang Industrial Zone.

Therefore, Hurd wished that something would happen in the Yinjiang Industrial Zone, everyone is like this, except for parents to their children, no one in this world will want others to live better than themselves.

"What do you mean?" Kevins's face immediately sank, and he said, "Could it be that the Japanese still dare to send bombers to bomb the Yinjiang Industrial Park?" Shit, if the Japanese really dare to do this, then this is equivalent to an all-out war with the United States! ”

"Equivalent to a war with the United States? I'm afraid it's not that serious. Kevins had barely finished speaking when a stocky man with a pair of looped legs walked briskly.

Kevins and the others looked back when they heard this, but it was the chief reporter of the Japanese NHK news agency in Shanghai, Taro Kawada.

Taro Kawada walked up to the four of Kevins and said: "After all, the Yinjiang Industrial Zone is not a concession, and it is impossible to enjoy the same transcendent status as the Shanghai Public Concession and the French Concession. ”

After a pause, Taro Kawada said again: "However, you in the United States must not regard the restraint of the Great Japanese Empire as weakness and fear of you America, if you really think so, it is a big mistake. ”

Kevins said in a deep voice: "Kawada, you mean that the Japanese government is really going to take action against the Yinjiang Industrial Park?" ”

Taro Kawada said: "According to what I know, today's press conference is only a verbal warning, and the level of warning is not too high, after all, the person who presided over the press conference is only a director of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Shanghai, but this is a clear signal, if your US government cannot release goodwill, the imperial countermeasures will definitely continue to increase, and it is not impossible to finally carry out a major bombing of the Yinjiang Industrial Park." ”

"Bombing Yinjiang Industrial Park?" Kevins said coldly, "It's an industrial park under the rule of the U.S. government, and if the Japanese government dares to bomb it, it will be tantamount to declaring war with the United States." ”

"Equivalent to a declaration of war?" Taro Kawada said, "Then let's go to war in an all-out way." ”

Kevins stared at him when he heard this, and said in a deep voice: "Can you represent the attitude of the Japanese government?" ”

"I can't." Taro Kawada smiled coldly and said, "But as far as I know, it seems that you are just a reporter for the Associated Press in Shanghai, and it seems that you can't make decisions by the U.S. government, right?" ”

When the two were arguing, the group suddenly strode towards the rostrum.

Walking in front of this group of people was the new head of the Mei Agency, Jiro Yoshida.

Behind Jiro Yoshida, in addition to an English translator, was Pan Ren, the deputy director of No. 76.

Jiro Yoshida walked quickly to the rostrum and said into the microphone: "I'm sorry, I've kept you waiting, I'm inviting you here today, there are two main news to announce." ”

After saying this, Yoshida and other English translators finished translating these words.

After a while, Jiro Yoshida said: "Let's talk about the first news first, in recent months, we have noticed that Yinjiang, which is across the sea from Shanghai, is in full swing to build a large industrial zone, and according to the information that our Mei organ has mastered, there are more than 3,000 enterprises in the Yinjiang Industrial Zone!" ”

"More than half of them are Chinese companies!"

"With such a huge industrial park and so many industrial enterprises, how much industrial capacity will be formed, and what it means for China, I don't need to say much about it as a layman, everyone here must be very clear!"

"Yes, this is a real war potential! The Chinese will thus gain a huge war potential! ”

"We don't know what kind of considerations the U.S. government wants to build such an industrial park for the Chinese, and we don't know what the U.S. government wants to do."

"Does the U.S. government want to prop up China and fight a proxy war with the empire on the East Asian theater?"

"I can't help but ask, has the U.S. government really made a decision to fully participate in East Asian affairs and to wage a full-scale war with the Japanese Empire?"

"If we do not make up our minds to do so, we also ask the US Government to take resolute measures to withdraw the industrial enterprises and all machinery and equipment stationed in Yinjiang, and as long as the US Government is willing to show goodwill, the Great Japanese Empire is still willing to maintain good trade relations with the United States, but if the US Government insists on going its own way, all the consequences arising from this will be borne by the US Government."

In the seat below, Kevins couldn't help but let out a sneer after hearing this, and said to Chixun beside him: "A despicable invader actually stands in the city of the victim country, and threatens another country with unashamed words, saying that you don't come in, if you come in, I will not be polite to you, it is rare for a country and a government to be shameless like this." ”

Taro Kawada, who was not far away, immediately turned around and retorted: "This is originally a world of the jungle, and it has always been the law of the jungle, China is too weak, this is the original sin, and the humble Chinese are not worthy of this vast and magnificent mountains and rivers and endless resources, which should belong to the great Japanese Empire." ”

Kevins put his hand on his forehead, and he couldn't contradict the bandit's logic.

This is because, if you don't want to talk about it, what is there to say?

At this time, Jiro Yoshida had finished speaking, and then said, "Now for the question session. ”

Kevins immediately raised his hand, got up and said after getting permission: "Hello, I'm Kevins, the chief correspondent of the Associated Press in Shanghai, I would like to ask Director Yoshida, can you tell me what the consequences are?" ”
