Yes, Prime Minister of Japan

He really didn't use any advanced American technology; it's all high-quality stuff from his own country. You Japanese shouldn't be so ungrateful.

The Japanese, on the other hand, are more concerned with time.

Half a year?

Half a year ago, wasn't that when Li Xinghe secretly negotiated with the Chinese last year to exchange 100 billion for an aircraft carrier?

So the aircraft cooperation agreement was already reached back then?

However, what the Japanese most want to see is the infusion of advanced American technology, a kind of loyal and magical faith, like a believer bowing and worshipping Buddha.

If this fighter jet were made using American technology, the Japanese would have raved about it to the skies, praising it as a unique marvel unparalleled in the world.

But in reality, it is a Chinese product made using the production line of old American fighter jets and the skills and expertise of Chinese designers.

This has elicited a very conflicted response from society.

In the public consciousness instilled in the Japanese by the media, Chinese technology is equated with backwardness and crudeness. This is a mental shackle that countless vivid real-life examples cannot break through.

Either acknowledge that this fighter jet is very powerful, the world's strongest defensive air superiority fifth-generation fighter, and then admit that China's fighter jet manufacturing technology has reached the world's advanced level, and is a great technology that is on par with, or even surpasses, that of the United States.

They either denigrate their country's first fifth-generation fighter jet, calling it a poorly made product by the Chinese, and thus deny the existence of the Type 1 Super Fighter launched by Li Xinghe.

Are they Western worshippers who endlessly idolize the United States, or staunch localists who advocate for Greater East Asia?

For the Japanese, this is a very difficult choice; they've really gone from being single-minded to being stuck on both ends.

The director and anchor hurriedly rehearsed their lines, urging the female anchor to quickly change the topic:

"During the development process... were there any obstacles encountered?"

Wang Shengming delivered another straightforward and blunt critique:

"The biggest obstacle is that the Mitsubishi factory is just too slow. To be honest, I'm going to visit the Mitsubishi and Toyota factories myself. I want to figure out why they can build airplanes so slowly."

The female anchor was so shocked that she couldn't speak for a moment.

This is a live broadcast!

Japanese viewers were so embarrassed by the interview that they almost had a heart attack.

Even if there's a problem with work efficiency, you can't just say it directly. If you do, it means someone will be punished, and the company will be criticized by the government. How can you do that?

However, considering the previously leaked footage of Miyaji Aimi interviewing at a rural agricultural reclamation station, the Chinese staff there engaged in incredibly awkward conversations that could drive anyone crazy, causing the program to be unable to air as scheduled. In their confusion and frustration, the Japanese could only resort to the habits that colonists are best at.

Accept reality.

Netizens can only deceive themselves like this:

"I guess that's just how straightforward Chinese people are."

Anyway, the live stream was a success.

Chinese netizens, on the contrary, started to celebrate. Look, this Dragon Cherry is the Japanese variant of the J-20, and the designers are all outstanding talents from the J-31 team.

The names Li Xinghe spread were also quite interesting.

The world's most powerful defensive air superiority fighter.

This means that it is specifically designed for near-shore air combat and defense, and there is no expectation that it will achieve any special results in other areas. This has led to a somewhat lukewarm response from various countries. Everyone knows what Li Xinghe's implication means.

Meanwhile, a group of ambitious individuals began to dance wildly.

Sanae Takaichi, accompanied by a group of fanatical far-right wingers, held a massive rally of 10 people in Tokyo, advocating that Li Xinghe should be immediately crowned king.

The right-wing elites shamelessly declared:

"The momentum to become king is unstoppable. The largest and strongest fighter jet has appeared, which is precisely the stepping stone for Lord Jianxinghe to ascend to the throne."

They even figured out the palace title that Li Xinghe would use.

"Prince Xing!"

This was the title of duke used by Lee Jae-myeon of Korea when Japan annexed Korea, clearly indicating a hidden intention to reunite Japan and Korea.

It wasn't just the name; the right-wing elites painstakingly helped him find everything, from palace construction to representative plants, flags, and family crests, just waiting for Li Xinghe to press the "agree" button.

At this moment, the Japanese right wing resembled a sycophantic suitor proposing marriage, constantly making wishes to Li Xinghe:

As long as you sign, we will immediately support you as Prince Xing and help you establish legitimacy.

For the sake of these crazy right-wingers, the Naruhito couple, who were anonymously traveling in Jilin, China at the time, even secretly wrote back to ask if they were really going to prepare to confer the title of Prince of the Palace?

If he were to be officially conferred a title, he would interrupt his trip and return to help Li Xinghe organize the ceremony.

Their commotion and the media's amplified publicity made the people in the Cabinet Office unhappy.

Li Xinghe, Asou Ayako, Mizukage Tenpei, and Hua Yingmei sat together, as did Shang Qiujia.

The Water Mirror Balance harshly criticized:

“They’re trying to take the steering wheel from us. They think that by making a fuss about a party that will crown you king, you’ll think the right wing can be won over and slowly turn you into the person they want you to be.”

While expressing their concerns, Hua Yingmei also had a different perspective:

"It's easy not to bestow titles of kings, but can you promise never to do so? Surely not."

The right-wing elites see this very clearly: Li Xinghe is bound to become a king, because his regime has too little legitimacy and will find it difficult to maintain its power for long without relying more on the traditional forces under the Emperor system.

Shang Qiujia and Aso Ayako whispered to each other.

"We don't eat with those guys."

Li Xinghe waved his finger:

"They go right, we go left."

……

Reports about Japan's fifth-generation fighter jet have continued in Japan for several days.

It's not just Japan; Europe, America, China, and South Korea are also paying attention.

The US media coverage was the most extensive, because it involved the official news from last year about the so-called '$100 billion purchase of the F-15EX production line'. To avoid contradicting themselves, Boeing actually helped cover up the lie, saying that 'this fighter jet is an American product based on advanced American technology, with minor modifications made by Chinese engineers'.

The White House doesn't need to worry, Congress doesn't need to worry, these are all F-15EXs, the Chinese don't need to worry.

Then, Boeing complained to Li Xinghe, saying that he had arbitrarily modified their technology. In return, they hoped to obtain the design blueprints for the Longying fighter jet and then send them to the White House to generate a major news story.

Because for decades, apart from the F-15EX, Boeing hasn't produced any other good independently designed products.

If the rumors of Chinese technology involvement are true, then the Super F-15 in Li Xinghe's possession could be modified by Boeing, and with minor repairs, it could become a new fifth-generation air superiority fighter, capable of defeating Lockheed Martin, or serving as a backup for the F-48 fighter jet, which is still just a concept.

See, they all have canards, don't they?

Li Xinghe's answer was:

"roll."

Even if they provided the blueprints, with so many Chinese components, could Boeing really manufacture it?

The Type 1 Super Battle Dragon Sakura's blooming as it weaves through the sea of ​​clouds in the sky, showcasing its super mobility and high-difficulty maneuvers, has even been praised by Japanese military enthusiasts as 'Dragon Sakura's Flower Burial'.

Public interest is rising, and people are eager to know what Li Xinghe is up to.

"What is the Taiko doing?"

These past few days, Li Xinghe has been unusually silent, giving off a strange feeling of pretending to be a master without saying a word.

This guy, if he's not arguing with people online, he's probably up to something bad. The Japanese are used to it.

Then there was news that the official website had been updated. What was being posted on the Japanese Cabinet's official website?

Japanese netizens flocked to the newly launched Cabinet Office website.

Upon seeing it, I was so angry I almost twisted my nose.

Li Xinghe did not celebrate the remarkable achievement of the fifth-generation fighter jet. Instead, he stayed in his office and, with his less-than-stellar writing skills, wrote an article reflecting on and criticizing the Japanese army during World War II, thus further consolidating his political foundation.

"The Lessons of the Cherry Blossom Special Attack: Reflecting on the Militarism's Disregard and Deception of Soldiers' Lives" - Chiyo Seikawa.

In the article, the Taiko wrote in a compassionate tone:

Those ordinary soldiers, deceived by militarists from birth to death, faced starvation for their families and constant uncertainty for themselves. Brainwashed or forced to conform to the prevailing trend, they were compelled to write so-called "last letters" and be sent to their deaths on airplanes at sea, dying meaninglessly and becoming victims of high-ranking bureaucrats, generals, and tycoons under militarism. Even so, some shameless, scheming, treacherous, and despicable individuals in later generations, for their own political goals, still exhume the memorial tablets and belongings of these pitiful people, deceiving outsiders into believing they died voluntarily.

If it were truly voluntary, I would much rather these shameless people who force the dead to "volunteer" voluntarily distribute their property to orphans, the poor, and the elderly, to prove that their so-called voluntariness is real.

Take, for example, the Kamikaze Peace Museum in Chiran, Kagoshima Prefecture, Kyushu. The museum reportedly houses 1.4 artifacts related to the Kamikaze pilots. Although it's called a peace museum, the exhibits are entirely items that encourage aggression and warfare. (The remaining text appears to be unrelated and possibly machine-generated gibberish.)

Li Xinghe criticized these people for being motherless.

The Japanese were completely numb, unable to find any chance of winning against Li Xinghe.

You fucking...

They're so bad at reading between the lines!

Japanese right-wingers are gleefully devising ways to crown Li Xinghe as a prince, in order to forcibly legitimize his warlord characteristics and maintain the fragile legitimacy of the democratic system under the Japanese emperor. The Japanese public is also enthusiastically joining the discussion, feeling that while Li Xinghe is detestable, there are virtually no other leaders capable of breaking the rules.

As a result, Li Xinghe had just released the fifth-generation mecha Dragon Sakura, and then he went and wrote about the lessons of Sakura Special Attack, which made him seem as weak as a Communist.

Netizens' sour criticism:

"Wow, a juvenile delinquent with a criminal record that fills several pages, even suspected of gangland killings, is here being compassionate and sympathetic. Is that really reasonable?"

The Japanese have a very conflicted mindset.

I just hope Li Xinghe will stop using the Luoyang shovel; there's no point in revisiting his dark past.

But Li Xinghe was about to flip it over.

Not only should it be flipped, but it should also be heavily stir-fried.

mid-July.

Li Xinghe and Aso Ayako, who is nine months pregnant, arrive in Osaka Prefecture.

Their first stop was the Sichuan-Western Base.

The unexpected visit threw the Third Division into chaos. As soon as Li Xinghe and Aso Ayako entered, they went straight to the division's mess hall.

Naturally, the army's food here was not good. Although Li Xinghe had modified the supply standards, the various profit chains still needed to eat, so the soldiers could only barely get enough to eat.

"salute!"

The officers of the 3rd Division hurriedly ordered their soldiers to stand up, revealing their meager rations.

Li Xinghe, holding Aso Ayako's hand, looked down at everyone's plates.

Today's lunch consists of a ball of rice, two bread rolls, a small dish of radishes, and a bowl of soup.

After watching the video, the Third Division Commander, Makoto Sato, and the Deputy Division Commander, Takeshi Sueda, who had rushed to the scene, were both drenched in sweat.

Just when everyone thought Li Xinghe was about to start dealing with the cafeteria, he sighed and said to everyone:

"The punishment for Self-Defense Force officers stealing bread from the mess hall has been abolished. Those who commit crimes due to livelihood issues will also be compensated. If a person cannot make a living, then he or she has ten thousand legitimate reasons to obtain food to sustain their life."

The soldiers were stunned.

Is this something a Japanese politician would say?

This isn't a human being.

This is practically a saint!

"Pa pa pa~"

The cafeteria erupted in applause.

Then Li Xinghe took out his wallet and hired several Chinese chefs to demonstrate cooking techniques, ensuring that the Third Division not only ate their fill but also enjoyed a good meal.

Li Xinghe's morale within the Self-Defense Forces surged once again.

After their performance, as they left the 3rd Division, the Self-Defense Force officers followed behind, reluctant to part with them.

Ayako Aso asked in confusion:

Is that all?

Li Xinghe, however, said:

"Small favors have not been extended to all, and the people will not be convinced."

Then they arrived in Osaka.

As one of the regions with the highest urban poverty rates in Japan, Osaka Prefecture has a significant number of single mothers. Lee Sung-ha, based in Osaka, launched a meeting for single mothers in the capacity of the Prime Minister and the Prime Minister of Japan.

This time, a large sports venue was used to invite more than 3 single mothers.
