Although Fan Wuxian mentioned when he was joking, as long as he had money. It is possible to get the president of the United States down, but everyone knows that the possibility of doing so is not very large, and the key is that the political models of the United States and Japan are different.
At the beginning of the founding of the United States, Washington and others laid the foundation for the establishment of the first country with the separation of powers, and were not tempted by fame and fortune, and resolutely gave up re-election, achieving the prosperity of the United States for 200 years, and the achievements it has today. But Japan is different, as a constitutional monarchy developed under the supervision of the United States after World War II, and a constitutional monarchy without independent national defense, its political system is obviously inherently deficient.
Japanese politics is very complicated, and the "Constitution of Japan" does not explicitly stipulate the term of office of the prime minister, but the current ruling LDP president can be re-elected for a term of three years, which means that the term of office of the Japanese prime minister is up to six years, and the tenure of the previous prime minister has a direct impact on the term of office of the next prime minister and has a chain effect.
Since Japan adopts a parliamentary constitutional monarchy, a party with a majority of seats in the House of Representatives of the Diet is granted the right to form a separate government, and the leader of that party is the prime minister. Now that the Liberal Democratic Party of Japan has a majority in the House of Representatives, the president of the Liberal Democratic Party is the prime minister.
The political situation in Japan is very turbulent, and the main reason for the frequent change of prime ministers is that there are too many rules, and if any of them are not passed, there will be a danger of collapse.
For example, the House of Representatives election was lost. In 1993, Prime Minister Kiichi Miyazawa collapsed, and the Liberal Democratic Party lost its position as the ruling party for more than 50 years.
The second is the loss of the Senate election, and although the House of Representatives can once again defeat the Senate by more than two-thirds of the votes, it will take a long time for the resolution to pass. If the House of Councillors is led by an opposition party, it will directly threaten the position of the ruling party, after all, there are important positions that must be approved by both houses of parliament before they can be appointed, and there have been prime ministers who have resigned because they lost the House of Councillors election. )
And the Japanese prime minister does not have a clear term, which is also an important reason, they are not like the United States, even if Klin bursts the zipper door and is impeached, but can still stay in the White House to manage the United States, which is unthinkable in Japan.
If the two houses of parliament pass a no-confidence motion, then the prime minister must dissolve the House of Representatives and hold a general election or resign, which should be the practice of losing the car and protecting the commander, and must always find a scapegoat for the party, and the prime minister will not give in.
If there is a problem with a cabinet minister or a cabinet member around him, it will also pose a threat to the prime minister, and of course, if the prime minister himself has a problem, it is even more difficult to say the consequences, such as Prime Minister Kakuei Tanaka who resigned and went to prison because of the Lockheed bribery case.
Japan's prime minister is not the favorite of the people and the most talented and capable leader, and the most powerful faction in the LDP generally elects the party president, and this president is generally a candidate acceptable to all factions within the party.
Japan's political leaders are backed by big business and big chaebols, and if there is a conflict of interest between the major chaebols, it will also affect political turmoil. There are many short-lived prime ministers in Japan. For example, former Prime Minister Haneda Zi, Higashijur has only been in office for more than a month, Hosokawa, Kaibe, and others have only been in office for more than a year, and Prime Minister Obuchi, who is now in office, has only been in office for less than a year, but the "two-faced prime minister" Sato Eisaku, who is now being attacked by the government and the opposition, has served for three prime ministers, and has been in office for 2,798 days, making him the longest-serving prime minister in Japan since the war.
The longer he has been in power, it means that the prime minister is the most despicable, the most means, and the most tricky, which is also the only rule in Japanese politics, which shows that if you want to be the prime minister of Japan, you can't do it without a little insidiousness.
The multiplicity of factions is a striking feature of the LDP, which arose under specific historical conditions. When the party was founded, the party was divided into the Yoshida faction of the former Liberal Party system (leader Shigeru Yoshida, former prime minister), the Ogata faction (leader Ogata Taketora, former president of the Liberal Party), the Ono faction (leader Ono Tomosa, the former president of the Liberal Party), and the Kishi faction (leader Nobusuke Kishi), the Kono faction (leader Yohei Kono, former president of the Liberal Democratic Party), and the Hatoyama faction (leader Ichiro Hatoyama, former president of the ** party).
The Liberal Democratic Party of Japan faction is highly organized. Factional politics is generally limited to the agreed rules of the game, such as respecting morality, consultation mechanisms, safeguarding the interests of the whole party, and confined struggle to the party. There is a lesser ideological overtone between the factions.
Due to the death of the faction leader and the lack of successors, some factions have died out of their own accord, but some have been divided and combined several times and have never been interrupted, and the existing LDP factions all have a clear historical evolutionary line.
After each election victory, the LDP has a number of important positions to be distributed, and the positions are not allocated entirely on a merit-based basis, but mainly on a factional basis.
Each faction also lists its members according to their seniority, number of times they have been elected, their loyalty to the faction, and their contribution to the faction. The election of the president of the Liberal Democratic Party is overwhelmingly the result of a compromise between such factions.
Organizationally, each faction has its own office, accounting, executive and policy research institutes, meets regularly or irregularly, has its own sources of political funding, and proposes its own candidates for the general election and the presidential election.
Some people are not allowed to participate in factional activities because of their positions, such as the presidents of the House of Representatives and the Senate, who are required to leave the faction from the day they take office, but they can be reinstated after their term of office expires.
Within the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) and even in Japanese politics, there is a hereditary atmosphere.
The reason why more than half of the LDP members of the Diet are hereditary is because Japan has a small electoral district system, and only one politician is produced in each constituency, and this constituency is the territory of the politician. It often takes many years to create a territory, and taking over it from their parents is a shortcut for many young people to realize their dreams of becoming politicians.
The other is that hereditary children have more opportunities to accumulate fame, and all candidates will have their own set of political opinions, and voters will not listen to every candidate's campaign rally, but rallies attended by ministers or prime ministers usually attract more people, and their children will accordingly enjoy treatment that other candidates do not have, and they will have a high reputation when they first debut. In addition, most politicians in Japan have a stake in the zaibatsu. Therefore, the extra income is very high, and when they retire from politics, they will accumulate a lot of wealth, which can provide financial support for their children and grandchildren in the election.
If you have money and fame, it is only natural to pass on political resources from generation to generation.
But this time, Fan Wuxian bribed Shinji Sato and threw out the original secret agreement between his dead ghost father Sato Eisaku and Nixon, but the impact was huge, because this is no longer a problem faced by a certain faction, but a serious test for the entire Liberal Democratic Party.
Although the people do not know that the "three non-nuclear principles" have always been trampled on by the Japanese and US governments, the successive prime ministers of the Japanese cabinet and the ministers of foreign affairs are all aware that all of them are important politicians of the Liberal Democratic Party.
However, today, when this secret agreement was exposed, the anger of the Japanese people can be imagined, Prime Minister Obuchi of the Liberal Democratic Party was immediately questioned by reporters, which made the scene very tense. The entire public image is completely ruined.
Now it is no longer the prime minister who is under suspicion, but the entire Liberal Democratic Party and the House of Councillors and the House of Representatives are seriously questioned, and under such circumstances, the ** party and other opposition parties suppressed by the Liberal Democratic Party immediately took advantage of the situation and jumped out one after another, accusing the Liberal Democratic Party of being inconsistent and playing with the feelings of the people, causing the whole of Japan to be in an embarrassing situation without credibility, and saying that they were responsible for it.
Prime Minister Obuchi and others suffered such a huge impact, and the first thing that came to mind was to resign, but I don't know why Shinji Sato suddenly jumped out. The matter was debunked.
Fan Wuxian said to his father, "Shinji Sato has no successor, so he doesn't have too many extravagant hopes for the future, and it is his greatest pursuit to earn some money to go abroad to support the elderly. Now that Japan is in turmoil, and the ** party is constantly attacking the LDP, where is the time to think about the Mongolian issue? In two or three years, they will not have time to deal with it. ”
Fan Heng shook his head and said, "The price is a little too great, and the political turmoil in Japan may be optimistic for us." Although the slogan of Sino-Japanese friendship has been shouted, that is, it is just a shout, everyone knows very well in their hearts what the real situation is, and the more chaotic the political situation in Japan is, the more beneficial it will be for our development. The alliance between Japan and the United States has been torn apart by this incident, and the Americans will feel even more angry in their hearts. ”
Seeing that his son moved casually, he stirred up the most sensitive nerve between the Japanese and the Americans, and made the whole Japanese chicken fly and the dog jumped, Fan Heng couldn't help but feel a little emotional in his heart, he had to fight seven inches to fight the snake, Fan Wuxian did a very good job at this point, and the timing was just right, that is, when the ** party was re-suppressed by the Liberal Democratic Party and was unwilling, he threw this big killer out, and the effect can really be said to be deafening.
"Actually, if they hadn't acted as a pioneer for the Mitsui Foundation, I wouldn't have done it like this, after all, there are not a few people who have provoked it like this, although the Americans don't care about it, but now that the declassification date of the secret agreement has not arrived, they are suddenly put on such a table, and they are naturally uncomfortable in their hearts." Fan Wuxi touched his head and said to his father Fan Heng, "In order to resolve this pimple." It seems that I need to purchase more American military equipment again. ”
"What are you buying so much military equipment for?" Fan Heng said with some incomprehension, "I don't object to buying some production equipment, weapons or something, it's not very good." ”
Fan Wuxian spread his hands and said, "I can't help it, arms dealers are powerful in the United States, and the officials in Mongolia are relatively cheap, if you don't beat them well, you won't work honestly, I have my own forces over there, it's always good." ”
But no matter what, the crisis in Mongolia has finally been successfully resolved, as for the series of problems caused by this, it is a headache for others, of course, this time the incident has also led to a relatively large fluctuation in the Japanese stock market, and it is inevitable that the financial management department of Fan's Investment Group has made a lot of money, and the 10 million US dollars paid to Shinji Sato before, and the 5 million US dollars paid to the two former Foreign Ministry officials, at best, can only be said to be four taels of four catties. The short-term return is more than $500 million.
Fan Wuxian returned to the PCFANS headquarters and mentioned this matter when he had a video conference with the main leaders of the branches in various places, so it is naturally impossible to say that he directed this farce, but he just praised the reaction of the Japanese branch in this secret incident, and reminded everyone to use their brains more to keep up with the development of the situation.
"Business opportunities are everywhere, it's up to you to grasp them." Fan Wuxian said.
According to the plan Fan Wuxian had made before, they were going to sell most of their shares before the end of the year, and now Song Yuanping and others are constantly making waves in the American market, concocting one after another true or false news, so as to promote the stocks of the companies they hold the most shares to continue to soar, so as to help them cash out.
The method they use is nothing more than to create some short-term gimmicks, such as registering a lot of temporary companies overseas, and then negotiating business with major companies, or buying some high-tech and new technologies back, integrating them into the company and negotiating with other companies, in short, in order to create short-term performance, they do not hesitate to raise the stock price, so as to facilitate their own shipments.
For some purposes, the Americans did not react too violently to these acts secretly manipulated by the Fan's investment group, or this was also secretly in line with their intentions, after all, trapping European funds in the US stock market was also the predetermined plan of the major American conglomerates.
All in all, everyone is making a fortune in silence, except for the dazed investors, who are moths to the flames of the US stock market.
There are no pop-ups
