Yes, Prime Minister of Japan

What was presented to the outside world was Vance taking a photo hand in hand with senior defense officials of the two countries. An unlucky staff member had his face blocked and nothing was revealed.

Li Xinghe also attended the exchange meeting before the formal negotiations.

The three countries sat in the conference room of Air Force Two, preparing for initial conditional contacts.

Sitting at the negotiation site, Li Xinghe alone had the outward appearance of being an assistant to the US Vice President, a special envoy of the Japanese Prime Minister, and a South Korean elite spy, but in reality he was an outsourced employee of the Chinese side and a heroic major of the Russian side.

He fiddled with his hands, caught in a situation that only a great chef would be anxious about.

The table is full of ingredients and the customers’ requests are varied.

What should we do? How can we talk to ourselves and cook a banquet that will satisfy America, delight South Korea, wholeheartedly support Japan, and make China laugh until it loses its memory?

"where?"

"Haneda Airport, hosting the American team."

"Be careful and don't get into conflict with the big shots..."

"Yeah, yes."

Chiyo Hinahiki on the phone was chattering, concerned about Li Xinghe's work safety.

Li Xinghe sat with Aiman, buying her necessary supplies for the pregnant woman while watching the discussions at the meeting.

Chiyo Hinahime doesn't know yet that she already has many grandchildren.

This was an informal meeting, mainly to discuss various negotiation matters in general.

20 minutes later, Vance and his team hurriedly sat down, but it was obvious that his mind was not on Japan at all. Japan and South Korea also sent their elite negotiators.

Aiman and Li Xinghe served as guest hosts and announced the meeting agenda:

"This is a meeting to let everyone know their respective demands. Now, please let Vice President Vance speak first."

As soon as Vance opened his mouth, he started talking endlessly about the power of the United States, and then changed the subject and began to demand that South Korea and Japan increase their troops and military spending.

In the eyes of these Republicans, the United States will always be strong, but South Korea and Japan must increase spending to protect their own security, and they do not think there is a huge conflict between these two points.

"...The US-Japan-ROK alliance will inevitably change the balance of power in Northeast Asia!" Vance waved his fist and spoke empty words.

Li Xinghe twirled the pen.

"Next is the free speech time..."

Several representatives began to make polite statements, bragging as if they were reading a report.

Facts aside, the US-Japan-ROK alliance is very strong.

But this strength is reflected in the large number of F35s and F15s owned by South Korea, which form a world-class air force, the large number of Aegis ships shared by South Korea and Japan, and the United States' bloated GDP ranking first in the world.

What if we consider the facts?

Then the 60 rubbish rural soldiers that South Korea has kept have fully proved in the Israel War that such an army is not even qualified to fill the line; Japan's Self-Defense Forces of more than 40 soldiers are even older than the missiles on their missile launchers. This is not to mention that due to the seniority system of the Self-Defense Forces, there are a large number of 50-year-old or even -year-old old men in the airborne troops, submarine soldiers, pilots, etc. who are just waiting for retirement without doing anything. The Self-Defense Forces have a phenomenon where the old people are getting more and more, and the young people come in without pay and responsibility, so they can only get out, and the bad soldiers squeeze out the good soldiers.

It's even funnier when it comes to missiles. Since 2000, the U.S. missile technology has basically stagnated and was stopped by Donald Rumsfeld. So when the conventional missile technologies of the United States, Japan and South Korea are combined, it turns out that South Korea's Hyunmoo ballistic missile, which was developed based on Russia, looks more advanced.

But South Korea and Japan don’t talk about the above issues, and the United States will not expose the truth.

Vance was visibly frowning, and the lifting took too long.

Li Xinghe appropriately proposed at this time:

"The evil alliance of China, Russia, Iran and North Korea will definitely launch a massive counterattack against our actions! Therefore, the negotiations must be fast. We need to complete high-speed integration quickly in the shortest possible time."

This reminder frightened the negotiators present and they all became alert and stopped talking nonsense.

But in fact, only Li Xinghe knew that none of his words were true.

The so-called China-Russia-Iran-North Korea alliance does not exist. Whether it is China, Russia, Iran or North Korea, in actual strategic performance, they are all conducting cautious defensive counterattacks. No country will be irrational and act blindly like Israel and Ukraine.

In the Russo-Ukrainian war, Russia repeatedly tried to prove to the outside world that Ukraine had no intention of stopping the war, so it was forced to carry out limited military operations; in the Iran-Israel conflict, Iran's counterattacks were always after Israel provoked trouble. Including China's response in the Taiwan Strait, it adhered to the moral high ground of "proving to the world that the other side took the first step" before starting to urinate and defecate everywhere.

As for the rapid integration of the United States, Japan and South Korea, it is a huge joke that can only be recorded in writing.

The South Korean representative enthusiastically began to talk about a more grand topic:

"What is India's attitude? What about Southeast Asia? What does Myanmar think? Should we accept the Burmese military government, or consider cooperating with PDF? Should we include Taiwan in the scope of this negotiation?"

This is also the basic operation of South Korean military personnel. When talking about international politics, they often overestimate themselves, thinking that they have a say in many international affairs and that other small countries must send people to participate in such "Asian NATO meetings".

Vance's face darkened:

"No, just the three of us."

In fact, what the South Korean representative said really hurt the Americans.

Because as early as 2020, the wild idea of an Asian NATO was rejected when it was proposed.

As an independent regional power, India directly ridiculed the "Asian NATO framework" as unfeasible. Southeast Asian countries also unanimously stated that they would not consider participating.

That’s why the US-Japan-ROK alliance is called the “Asian Mini-NATO”. The reason for this is that the original idea was to include India and Southeast Asian countries, and even Taiwan. But as we all know, the waters near Taiwan have long been taken up by China, so it’s difficult to call them in.

"what?"

The South Korean delegation was a little dazed.

Li Xinghe and Aiman interrupted to enlighten:

"Vice President Kaka meant that this negotiation is an internal negotiation among the United States, Japan and South Korea, and that wider wide-area coverage is not considered for the time being."

Therefore, the meeting will begin to go deeper.

The first thing is to impose corvee labor. The United States needs Japan and South Korea to pay more military expenses.

Before the Japanese negotiators could say anything, the South Korean representatives had already protested.

The US representative said:

"South Korea must increase its military spending! Annual military spending of $8.33 million is too little."

However, South Korea has been unable to evade this question, and many officials have tried to defend themselves:

"But South Korea's military burden has surpassed its citizens..."

The American team gradually started to get angry and even threatened:

“Does South Korea want to be ruled by a tyrant?”

At this time, the Vance team was referring to Kim Jong-un in their media.

However, the South Korean negotiating team is not so stupid as to be frightened by such threats. South Korea and North Korea are already like two countries, and it is almost impossible for them to have political deviations. However, if they provide more military spending to the United States, they will be criticized by the public tomorrow.

Someone suddenly said, "Isn't that Park Chung-hee and Chun Doo-hwan who were protected by the United States? We have had enough."

Vance was stunned.

What does that mean? Who are these people? He still needs to ask his secretary.

The atmosphere was a bit tense. This new generation of Korean diplomats was a little too ignorant.

At this time, Li Xinghe came out to smooth things over very cleverly:

"In my opinion, Park Chung-hee and Chun Doo-hwan... are both Chinese! You see, one graduated from a Chinese military school and joined the Chinese army (the puppet Manchukuo army), and the other fled to Jilin, China and settled there... So the era of South Korea's democratization should be counted from Roh Tae-woo."

The "Chinese" that Li Xinghe mentioned at this time, in the context of the Republican Party, has the dual meaning of Chinese background and enemy.

He used this term to explain to Vance that South Korea had a large number of former presidents who were all enemies, that is, dictators and tyrants.

But Roh Tae-woo is indeed of Chinese descent, and is a close friend of Chun Doo-hwan, and is also from the military, so some Korean officials complained:

"Isn't Roh Tae-woo a descendant of Chinese?"

"Then let's start with Kim Young-sam."

Li Xinghe quickly ended the topic to prevent the stupid Korean from continuing to make trouble.

When it was the turn of the Japanese representative to speak about his position and contribution, he also tried to shirk his responsibility. He just wanted to say: "Japan provides 13.8 billion U.S. dollars in military expenditure to the U.S. troops stationed in Japan each year, which is nearly twice that of South Korea. If South Korea increases its expenditure, we will increase it too."

I have to say that the Japanese are very tactful. They lured South Korea into the negotiation alliance with just a few words.

The meeting then led to negotiations on Japan's military expansion and South Korea's increase in military spending, but progress was not smooth.

An hour later, Vance angrily brought Li Xinghe into the small office.

"How come the Koreans are the ones stirring up trouble throughout this meeting? Why can't they understand the determination to resist the evil alliance? Are they having second thoughts?"

The dissatisfied Vice President discovered that it was the Koreans who were making trouble today, while the Japanese were very docile.

Vance asked Li Xinghe a soul-searching question:

"Why are all South Korean presidents Chinese? Are Koreans Chinese?"

Li Xinghe really wanted to slap his thigh, Brother, you have seen through the essence of the world situation.

To Europe and the United States, the Chinese are the enemy, and the enemy is the Chinese, so everyone may be labeled as an enemy and then described as Chinese.

But Li Xinghe has another explanation:

"You are right. South Korea has been a part of China in history, just like Taiwan. So we must be vigilant. They may betray us at any time. For example, some South Koreans believe that if China stationed troops in South Korea to replace the US military, their lives would be better. This faction has now formed a certain scale in South Korean online public opinion."

Li Xinghe did not lie, it has indeed reached a certain scale.

It's just like Japan's return to China, it's all Koreans' sarcastic remarks against the current government and the United States.

Vance praised:

"You understand very well."

Nonsense, because I am really Chinese.

After coming out of the office, Li Xinghe fell exhausted on the sofa.

"Have a cup of coffee. You've worked hard."

Aiman poured him a cup of coffee and rubbed her boyfriend's forehead like a girlfriend.

Li Xinghe drank a cup of coffee, looked at the time and had to go to work, so he stood up helplessly:

"Well, you should get some rest. I will go talk to the Korean team."

......

Judging from today's negotiations, the Koreans are the most nervous.

They were on the front line between South Korea and North Korea and could be beaten at any time, so their emotions changed a lot during the negotiations.

This fits the stereotype of Koreans being loud and shouty and easily defied.

Li Xinghe entered the Korean lounge carrying two watermelons and shouted to the people inside:

"Aniha Saiyo~ I am from the working group for this negotiation, and I want to talk to Minister Kim Young-hyun."

Jin Yongxian is a politician who came from the military. He took Li Xinghe to a small office and after exchanging secret codes, he couldn't help but feel anxious: "Americans are arrogant and incompetent. They are really annoying. Can you tell me what they want?"

Li Xinghe naturally said:

"We hope to pay to support the US military."

"hateful..."

Jin Yongxian sat behind the table, feeling anxious and puzzled.

He must not return to Seoul with a contract to increase the cost of supporting the US military, otherwise the People's Power Party will be doomed in this year's election. The opposition party has ten thousand ways to mess with them.

"I have a suggestion. Can we consider postponing the negotiations? At least until next year."

Li Xinghe tried to make a proposal, but received no result.

Jin Yongxian waved him out.

After coming out of the office area, Li Xinghe unexpectedly received a text message from his daughter Wuqi Ai.

"I'm going to the airport to pick up Taifeng, can you come pick me up?"

Li Xinghe still had some energy left, and when he was about to drive, he found someone gently tapping him from behind.

"dad."

Azuma Ai carried a small gift, her long straight black hair splashed on her shoulders, and her bright and lovely smile was amazing. She looked a little petite standing next to Taiho Niizawa. Taiho Niizawa, the big breasted JK, also returned.
