Sitting in the conference room of the Future Ren Building, Kishida Fumizuki thanked the waiter for the tea handed over, but his eyes were involuntarily aiming at the wall clock on the wall.
This is the tenth time he has repeated this action since he entered the door.
After talking to Jiang Chen on the phone, he immediately turned off his afternoon trip and rushed here after finishing his meeting with Zhang Yaping.
When he arrived here, Jiang Chen was on the space elevator and it was more than an hour before he could reach Koro City, so Jiang Shuying arranged them in this conference room and asked the supervisor to make a few cups of tea for them.
Also sitting in this conference room were several trusted diplomats from a diplomatic team he brought from Japan.
In order to avoid arousing suspicion from the United States, he came here under the guise of power negotiations and could not stay here for long.
As for the purpose of his trip, there is no need to guess, of course it is for the 50% defense tax.
When it comes to the desire for space resources, no country in the world can compare to Japan.
The disagreement between the poverty of local resources and industrial development has been like a curse on Japan since the last century. If there is a slight turmoil in the world economy, the Nikkei index will have to decline.
As soon as Xinghuan City announced its acceptance of foreign capital investment, Japanese capitalists and large consortiums rushed forward, especially the rare earth mining project in Guanghan City, for fear that Xinghuan Trade would not want their money.
It is no exaggeration to say that the total investment of Japanese companies in Star Ring City is third only after the United States and China, and even ahead of Russia.
It is precisely because of this that 50% of the defense tax makes them feel so painful.
Just as Kishida Fumizuki muttered in her heart, the door of the conference room was pushed open and Jiang Chen walked in from outside.
Seeing this, he immediately took the lead in getting up from the chair, his face filled with smiles, and stretched out his right hand to meet him.
Fortunately, I am lucky. I am the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Kishida.
Jiang Chen, chairman of Future Ren Group and Star Ring Trade.Mr. Kishida doesn’t need to introduce himself, we have seen it at the Outer Space Security Summit.Holding his stretched hand, Jiang Chen said with a smile.
Hearing the word "Exterior Space Security Summit", an awkward expression flashed from Mr. Kishida's face.
But he is worthy of being a diplomatic person, and his face is naturally far beyond the reach of a human being. He pretended not to hear this word, and enthusiastically held Jiang Chen's hand, and started to greet him.
Since the fall of Ampe's cabinet after the Resident Evil in Tokyo, he has changed his previous political stance and defected to the left.
Because he highly supports the foreign policy of the new prime minister, he continued to be nominated by the Foreign Minister after the establishment of the new cabinet, becoming the only cabinet minister who has not been removed from office.
Of course, this is also related to the turbulent situation in Japan at that time and no one is available to the new prime minister.
Putting aside those external factors, judging from his style of conduct, this person is simply a typical example of changing his mind.
He stood firmly on the side of the American father at the outer space defense summit, and now he saw that the Earth Defense Alliance was in full swing, and immediately pretended that nothing had happened and came over.
However, as the saying goes, he doesn't hit the smiley person. Seeing his smile on his face, Jiang Chen also grinned, let go of his hand and made a gesture to the chair next to him.
Please sit down.
After seeing Minister Kishida sit down, several diplomats who came with him also sat down.
Jiang Chen walked to the first seat in front of the conference table and sat down. He gestured to the assistant behind him to go out and take the door with him.
Hearing the sound of closing the door from behind, he leaned back on the chair and looked at the Japanese delegation leisurely.
Mr. Kishida probably didn't come to me to reminisce about the past.You know, I'm an entrepreneur.There is no need to do all the red tape here. If there is anything, you might as well just say it.
Since Mr. Jiang Chen said that, I will speak straight to the point.Minister Kishida coughed gently and said, isn’t the 50% defense tax you proposed by you a little too high?
When Jiang Chen heard this, he felt a smile on his face.
This was a decision made after discussions within the Earth Defense League, and all member states voted to finally pass the resolution.If you have any objections to this resolution, you might as well go to China and Russia to discuss it first?
Kishida Fumizu smiled dryly.
Mr. Jiang joked. As far as I know, this 50% defense tax was collected by the Star Ring Trade Space Elevator Operation Company and injected into the Earth Defense Fund in the name of donations. Could it be that the Earth Defense League and the Space Elevator shares?
Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows and looked at the old man in his sixties more unexpectedly. Unexpectedly, the Japanese did not take the Earth Defense Alliance seriously on the surface, and the private investigation was quite clear.
But with that being said, the initiative is still on his side.
So, Jiang Chen did not use excuses to make excuses and instead pulled out the banner for all mankind.
Confronting the invasion of extraterrestrial civilizations is for the common interests of the international community. If this is the case, we cannot let some people rush in front and the other hiding behind and enjoying their success, right?Either pay or work, this is fair, right?
Fairly, you are paralyzed!
Minister Kishida cursed in his heart.
Use our country's money to support your aerospace companies, and then wait for you to continue to make money from our country with leading aerospace technology. How can there be any fairness at all?
However, he whispered in his heart, and on the surface he still had that kind face with a smile.
You are right, fighting extraterrestrial civilization is an unshirkable obligation of all countries.After seeing the example you set, we have indeed seriously reflected on our selfishness in this regard.Therefore, we decided to set up a space force in the Self-Defense Force to support the combat against extraterrestrial civilizations!
Jiang Chen didn't say anything, leaned forward slightly, and looked at him with a smile through the table.
Just when Kishida Fumizu felt a little furious when he was seen, Jiang Chen spoke.
Are you kidding me?
Although he knew that the conditions he had put forward were too much, Minister Kishida's expression could not help but feel a little embarrassed when he heard Jiang Chen's undisguised refusal.
However, the negotiations had to continue, so he had to bite the bullet and say.
Then what do you want?
Smiling slightly, Jiang Chen leaned back on the chair and said in a relaxed tone.
It’s easy to avoid defense tax, just join us.
Hearing Jiang Chen's words, Kishida Fumizu immediately jumped up.
This is impossible!We are NATO allies, how can we join the new military alliance treaty!
Jiang Chen didn't care about Kishida Fumizuki's aggressive gaze and said with a smile.
Then pay the tax honestly to contribute to the cause of "land defense".
This is the tenth time he has repeated this action since he entered the door.
After talking to Jiang Chen on the phone, he immediately turned off his afternoon trip and rushed here after finishing his meeting with Zhang Yaping.
