After returning to the hotel, Sanjiro and Ohashi Naoki immediately began plotting, as they did not fully trust Cohen and the Kushner family.

Strictly speaking, this is not the first time that the Japanese right wing and Jewish families have collaborated.

As early as the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-1905, American Jewish financier Jacob Schiff provided Japan with a huge loan of about $2000 million to retaliate against Tsarist Russia for its persecution of Jews, helping Japan defeat Russia.

2000 million back then was no joke; it's roughly equivalent to over 70 billion today.

Following this incident, the Japanese military believed that the Jews possessed enormous wealth and influence, which could be used to serve the expansion of Japanese militarism.

In the 1930s, they quickly developed the pufferfish plan.

The core of the plan was to attract European Jewish refugees to settle and invest in their controlled Asian colonies (mainly the Northeast) in exchange for Jewish capital and technology.

The plan was confirmed by the Japanese government in 1938, and the Japanese Navy also established an advisory bureau specifically responsible for Jewish affairs.

However, by 1940, after Japan allied with Nazi Germany, this plan to cooperate with Jews became inappropriate and had to be temporarily shelved.

However, they still allowed thousands of European Jewish refugees to seek refuge in Shanghai and other places under their control during the war.

Of course, the Japanese had no good intentions. Influenced by the Protocols of Zion, they believed that Jews wanted to conquer the world by controlling the media, finance, and government.

They took advantage of the Jewish people to realize their ambition to annex Asia.

All I can say is that Japan is being far too naive and delusional.

First, this book was likely a forgery by Tsarist Russia; the Jews didn't have that capability. Second, if the Jews did have that capability, it's incredibly far-fetched that they naively believed they could control this "world's mastermind" through surveillance.

In short, the relationship between the Japanese right wing and Jews has been complex throughout history. They use the banner of "anti-Semitism" but secretly regard it as a tool to be used.

Mitsumoto and Naoki Ohashi are far-right and still believe in "Jewish-Freemasonry" conspiracy theories.

"Some of what Cohen said we can do, but not all of it," Naoki Ohashi thought warily.

Sanjiro glanced at him. "What won't you do?"

"We won't touch the foundation's public accounts for now," Naoki Ohashi thought it was a trap. "Li Fu doesn't care about money at all, so the accounts must be fine. If we spread rumors and slander, it will only expose the traces of our actions behind the scenes."

Most importantly, he felt he would likely offend those veteran organizations, who already harbored no goodwill towards Japan.

"So, shall we set our sights on movies and documentaries?"

"Yes, the movie hasn't been released yet, but the documentary is still generating buzz. We can launch a massive online smear campaign. Also, we can attack Li Fu's character, claiming that the women he associates with are all important figures. Spreading wild rumors will definitely interest the public..."

Naoki Ohashi grasped the key points this time.

Sanjiro thought for a moment, then nodded. "I'll have the materials prepared."

They stayed in New York for another day, planned out the details of their operation, and then parted ways. Mitsujiro flew to Los Angeles, while Naoki Ohashi stayed on the East Coast.

The two had a clear division of labor: one kept an eye on the West Coast media landscape, while the other kept an eye on media channels in New York and Washington.

They don't make phone calls or send emails to each other; all communication is done through an encrypted temporary account that is discarded after use.

The Kushner family's cooperation was also more subtle than they had anticipated. Cohen did not intervene directly, but only conveyed some information through a few intermediaries.

Which journalists are more easily swayed, which columnists have a natural aversion to Li Fu's stance, and which online platforms have the most lenient censorship of this type of revelation?

This amount of information is not much, but each piece is accurate.

Li Fu was unaware of the enemy's plot while at Qiquan Manor.

That evening, he was taking a walk with Ivanka, and they walked for about fifteen minutes along the path through the woods in the estate.

As the sun began to set and dusk approached, they started to walk back.

Ivanka walked slowly, holding onto Li Fu's arm, occasionally stopping to catch her breath. "My dad is coming in the next couple of days. He's in a very good mood and really wants to see you."

"Because the manuscript is almost finished," Li Fu said with a smile, "he feels that the book can help him break into the market."

"What do you think?" Ivanka wasn't sure if this approach would work.

"That book was just the beginning; the real changes aren't contained in a single book," Li Fu clearly had a longer-term vision.

Vance entered the upper echelons' view because of his book, Country Elegy, and was also selected as vice president because the book helped the CCP consolidate votes in the Rust Belt around the Great Lakes during the election.

However, what is truly needed is a change in the times.

For example, the person who truly started the transformation of the Tea Party movement into the MAGA movement and stirred up the waves was probably none other than CP.

He was chosen by the times.

Two days later, CP himself appeared at Seven Springs Manor.

He was wearing a dark blue shirt and a bright red tie, and looked much more energetic than the last time I saw him.

When he entered the study, Li Fuzheng was sitting on the sofa reading a printout of a Reddit post, which Thompson had prepared and brought over that morning.

The Japanese launched an offensive from their right flank.

He didn't deal with it immediately after reading it; he hadn't decided how to respond yet.

The two shook hands warmly, and CP, with his usual smile, patted Li Fu's shoulder lightly; he liked to express trust in this way.

"The initial outline of that book is already out, and the writing team is working hard to finish it. The progress is faster than I expected. I've read a few of their newly written chapters, and with my name on them, it's sure to become a bestseller."

"I think so too. I'm sure I'll dominate the bestseller list in the future, and people will see a different you," Li Fu said confidently, even though he hadn't read the book yet.

Because the core of this story is destined to succeed, America is not just plagued by alcoholism, drug addiction, and poverty around the Great Lakes.

Just like MAGA's slogan, America is not what it was 20 or 30 years ago; the general quality of life for its people has declined significantly, and it needs to be great again.

Moreover, CP's current fame is comparable to that of an entertainment superstar, so books signed with his name are bound to sell well.

He even has several best-selling books in hand.

The CP believed Li Fu's words without a doubt, even when he said something absurd like the black president being shot tomorrow.

He's already envisioning the future.

"However, I suggest you hold more book signings around the Great Lakes, show concern for the local people, and ideally use all the proceeds from this book to improve the situation of the local people," Li Fu wanted to push CP to take a people-oriented approach.

If he needs his cooperation, such as promising to boost the local economy and improve people's livelihoods, he can also think of ways to do so.
