If it is just a short-term tourism decline, the Japanese government can still bear it.
After all, as time goes by and the heat slowly cools down, Japan’s tourism industry will return to its previous situation sooner or later.
But now it involves not only tourism, but also the pillar industry of Japan.
This cannot be ignored. The Japanese economy has finally developed to the point where it is now. No one wants the Japanese economy to regress.
So, after receiving the co-signed letter, the Japanese Prime Minister immediately held a cabinet meeting to discuss how the matter should be resolved.
Originally, a small matter has now evolved into a national event.
And it also affects the economic development of the country.
This matter is no longer a matter of dignity.
If it is not handled properly, the achievements that Japan has made so far may be ruined.
"Everyone, let's discuss how to deal with this matter. We can't delay it any longer." The old man sitting at the head looked around at the cabinet members and said seriously.
As the largest official in Japan, he naturally has the strongest intelligence.
Therefore, he knows everything about the current situation in Japan.
In itself, this matter was not decided by him. After all, the Prime Minister cannot handle everything.
Now, what is before him is not to shirk responsibility, but to handle this matter as soon as possible.
The longer it is delayed, the more troublesome Japan's situation will be.
As soon as the old man finished speaking, the scene suddenly became noisy.
Many cabinet members are actually the backers of those big forces. Most of the time, they basically only think about their own interests.
And the thick legs behind big companies like Toshiba, Sony, Honda, Toyota, etc.
As expected, the scene was divided into three factions.
One, neutral in purpose.
The second one is to support the solution of the Su Group's affairs and insist on cracking down on crime and evil in order to restore Japan's international image.
The last one, I still maintain my original opinion. A country cannot put down its dignity and apologize to a foreign company. This will make Japan completely lose face. These people are actually the supporters and associations behind the gangs. A lot of money is provided to them every year, so they naturally do not support the crackdown on gangs and evil, which completely harms their interests.
They had held a meeting before, and at that time the third one had the most support.
However, this time is completely different from before.
More than 80% of the cabinet members completely and overwhelmingly support resolving the Su Group's affairs as soon as possible, cracking down on gangs and evil, restoring the Su Group's investment in Japan, and restoring Japan's international image!
The remaining 12% chose neutrality and did not help either side.
The remaining 8%, those who are the supporters behind the association, of course support the Shankou group, but such a low support ratio is completely useless.
The reason for the one-sided situation is naturally that the current domestic situation in Japan has harmed the interests of most people in power.
Previously, they didn't care at all about whether to help the Su Group.
But now, if they don't help the Su Group, they will suffer heavy losses due to the chain reaction of these things. Therefore, they have to support the Su Group.
Because, the key to this matter actually lies with the Su Group.
At the beginning of the matter, the Shankou group wanted to blackmail the Su Group's Japanese branch.
However, the threat that was always unfavorable in the past actually encountered a serious challenge this time.
After the blackmail failed, the Shankou Group actually refused to give up and continued to threaten the Su Group with various means to make them surrender.
However, the final result disappointed them.
No one thought that the Su Group would be so tough.
It even led Hutchison Whampoa Group, Tianqiong Semiconductor Company, Tianwen Petroleum Company, etc. to directly announce the suspension of all Japanese business and cooperation.
No one expected that things would reach this point.
Over the years, the Shankou Group has threatened and extorted many foreign companies, and many of these companies had no choice but to succumb in the end.
Of course, the Shankou Group is smart enough not to touch those companies in Beautiful Country!
Because, everyone knows that the boss of Japan is the beautiful country.
Even the Japanese government is unable to save the companies that have offended the beautiful country.
Therefore, Tian Gang and Xiong often emphasize in the group that they can mess with anyone, but they cannot mess with beautiful state-owned enterprises.
It is precisely because of this that the Shankou Group has relied on various means to make money over the years and has grown stronger and stronger. It has gradually widened the gap with other violent groups in Japan and has become a veritable brother in Japan. .
In the past, they had the support of the cabinet, and no matter what the Shankou group did, they could suppress it.
But now that the matter has reached this point, it is difficult to suppress it even after the King of Heaven is here. It is obviously impossible for a few cabinet members to suppress the matter.
“Now that we have discussed it, we have decided that it is imperative to crack down on gangsters and eliminate evil. I know exactly what the Shankou Group has done over the years, and it is the right thing to take care of it. As a major tourist country, we must maintain a good international image and not let everyone think that Japan is a chaotic and insecure country.
In addition, Mr. Su Cheng’s Su Group, Hutchison Whampoa Group and others are very good foreign-funded enterprises. We cannot push foreign-funded enterprises out. They have contributed to the economic development of our country and we should treat them with gratitude.
In this matter, we were indeed at fault. As a government that manages the order of a country, we should protect everything within the country within the law and regulations, rather than pretending not to see it.
During this period, the Shankou Group, Daocun Hui, and Zhuji Hui caused chaos throughout Japan. What are you doing with such arrogant behavior? Especially the police department, what does your department do for food?
Seizing this opportunity, we must intensify our efforts to crack down on crime and eliminate evil in order to change our international image. When necessary, if the police department fails to do its job, the Self-Defense Forces will all come to an end.
I know that there are some people at the scene who are behind these violent associations. I won’t name them here. Not only do I know who they are, everyone here should know them, and I will not pursue them. Responsibility, but in the face of national events, I hope that everyone will cooperate with the interests of the country instead of messing up the entire country for their own interests.
…”
The old man sat in the main seat, and after the results of the discussion came out, he began to summarize the matter.
He actually knows many things, but as a superior, the old man often has to pretend to be confused.
After all, with the intricate forces in the country, even as Prime Minister, he cannot truly control everything.
Only by following the trend can we better steer a country. (End of this chapter)
