"Your name?"

"Ichiro Kawashima."

"Identity?"

"Vice President of the Greater East Asia Shared Green Foundation."

"What is the purpose of coming to Nord Stream Steelworks?"

"Help the Nord Stream steel plant clean up waste slag."

"Where is the slag going to go?"

"Shipped back to Japan."

"What are you going to do with it when you ship it back to Japan?"

"Used to reclaim land from the sea."

"Where is land reclamation? What is the name of the company that undertakes land reclamation? ”

"......" Ichiro Kawashima was dumbfounded, and he suddenly realized that he really hadn't made up this detail, and he couldn't even think of a place name to use to cover things.

He originally thought that the Chinese knew nothing about Japan, and that the other party would believe whatever they said, and that as long as the slag could leave the Chinese port, the rest of the matter did not need to be explained. However, now that he is facing the interrogation of the military, it will not be so easy to get by. It is true that there are some places in Japan that are engaged in land reclamation, but Kawashima Ichiro has no contact with the institutions in these places, and he cannot name their phone numbers or contact people, and as long as they are not fools, they can tell that he is talking nonsense.

"What, can't tell?" Yue Guoyang, who was sitting on the interrogation seat, sneered, "You are in charge of this matter, you don't even know which dock the cargo ship is going to and who will pick up the goods, right?" ”

"I'm ......" Ichiro Kawashima continued to be speechless.

"Stop going around in circles, it's a waste of your time and ours. Tell me, when did you know that these slags are rich in tantalum and niobium? Yang Yihe also spoke. For such a major event, he must be present to witness it in person, as long as it can be confirmed that Kawashima Ichiro has bad intentions. An Ho Province does not have any responsibility in this matter, and it can be explained to the Central Committee and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. On the contrary, if you can't grasp the exact handle of Kawashima Ichiro, the pressure on Anhe Province will really be great.

Hearing Yang Yihe's words, Kawashima Ichiro was stunned for a moment. Then he nodded thoughtfully and said, "I'm sorry, sir, I only know that these slags are very useful, but I really don't know that the ingredients in these slags are tantalum and niobium. If I had known that there were these two elements, I don't think I would have taken on this business. ”

"Who told you to cheat you out of this slag?" Yue Guoyang asked.

"It's Fukuoka Kaisha." Ichiro Kawashima simply left it all. Now, he knows that he will not end well if he is dead, and since this matter was caused by Kunio Kishida, let Kunio Kishida deal with it. It's better to be just a broker who works with money, and it is better to confess truthfully than to be imprisoned as a commercial spy, right? The charges against him by the military are really terrible, and if this charge is confirmed, he may really go to prison.

Ask this level, and the rest will be easier to handle. Yue Guoyang asked the staff to ask Ichiro Kawashima to write down the story clearly, sign and draw the matter, and then handed over all these materials to the officials of the Provincial Foreign Affairs Office who came to deal with the matter. This kind of foreign-related case. There are a series of sensitive policy issues that only those in the Foreign Affairs Office can figure out.

A day later. The Japanese consul stationed in Pujiang also hurried over, and after reading Ichiro Kawashima's self-reported materials, the Japanese consul had nothing to say, so he had to discuss with the Anhe provincial government, hoping to settle the matter on the basis of apologies. Of course, An Ho Province did not want to make a big deal out of it, after some procedural twists and turns. Ichiro Kawashima was released, and he was allowed to leave the Yasugawa River with the Japanese consul and quickly return to Japan.

The Anhe Provincial Government submitted a report to the central authorities on this matter, the main content of which was that the relevant departments of Anhe Province had seen through the details and wanted to catch the old people and see through the true face of Japanese commercial espionage. It avoids the loss of important mineral resources of the country. In this report, Yang Yihe, Yue Guoyang, Li Linguang, Zeng Yongtao, Liu Zunian, Wang Yiqiao and others played an important role in this process. As for Qin Hai and Ning Zhongying, they were only inadvertently mentioned at the end of the report, saying that they also played a certain role in the process of solving the case......

After receiving the report, the relevant central departments quickly forwarded it to all provinces and autonomous regions throughout the country, urging all localities to learn from the experience of An Ha Province, draw relevant lessons, and seriously examine foreign-related cooperation projects, and not be completely led by the nose by foreign parties. Local governments acted quickly, and within a very short period of time, several similar cases were identified and promptly corrected. That's for later.

After sending Kawashima Ichiro away, Yang Yihe was not in a hurry to return to Hongze, but stayed for one more day. He specially called Qin Hai to his temporary office in Beixi, and as soon as they met, he said: "Xiao Qin, I'm very sorry for you for this matter." ”

"Governor Yang is serious, I don't seem to feel that I have been wronged." Qin Hai replied with a smile.

"This time you can see through the conspiracy of the Japanese, you are the first credit, this is the consensus between me and Commander Yue. However, in the report provided by the province to the central government, your role is not highlighted, so I need to apologize to you. Yang Yihe said frankly. When a person does something wrong, he will always have some troubled conscience, and he is in this state now.

Qin Haidao: "Governor Yang's apology, I don't dare to accept it. The province must have a deep meaning in doing this, and I dare not have any complaints. ”

Yang Yihe said: "This time, the impact is too bad. From me, the provincial governor, to the relevant leaders of the Foreign Affairs Office and the Nord Stream Iron and Steel Plant, no one has the slightest vigilance against Ichiro Kawashima's behavior. If it weren't for you and Professor Li Linguang so persistently, our province's face would have been lost. Such a thing, the province must not be able to report it truthfully, so you need to have some spring and autumn brushwork, and at the same time dilute your role, I hope you can understand. ”

Qin Hai smiled dumbly, Yang Yihe's words were straightforward enough. Think about it, the officials of a province have not found a problem, and the last thing is that a technical school graduate warned everyone, if this kind of thing is transmitted to the central government, how can the upper and lower levels of Anhe Province be embarrassed? In this way of dealing with the situation, the credit is attributed to the provincial leaders, city leaders, and factory leaders, and the ugly matter of being collectively deceived has become a glorious matter of farsightedness and strategic planning.

To put it more in layman's terms, that is, he wronged a Qin Hai and benefited thousands of officials, and Qin Hai can be regarded as a meritorious person.

"I don't care if I have merit or not, but for those cadres who worship foreigners, the province should have an attitude. Director Zeng of the Foreign Affairs Office and Director Wang of the Nord Stream Iron and Steel Plant planned to forcibly drive me and Director Ning away even though they knew that Ichiro Kawashima had problems. If such behavior cannot be punished, but can be praised, then no one will dare to speak out in the future. Qin Hai said.

Yang Yihe waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, the province is looking at the behavior of the relevant personnel in this incident." After this incident is over, we will seriously deal with the two comrades Zeng Yongtao and Wang Yiqiao, who bear serious responsibility, and at least transfer them from important posts. By the way, the Foreign Affairs Office had already reported to me that the translator named Liu Xuping was no longer suitable for foreign affairs work, and suggested that he be transferred to the provincial library to do the cataloguing of Japanese literature. ”

"Governor Yang is really a good person." Qin Hai said in a mocking tone.

Qin Hai is not a person who likes to hold grudges, but he has a feeling of disgust for Zeng Yongtao, Liu Xuping and others, and always hopes that they can be punished as they deserve. Hearing that the province planned to deal with these people seriously, Qin Hai felt a lot more comfortable. In contrast, he didn't particularly care whether he himself appeared in the materials asking for merit to the central government.

"The province is also very clear about your contribution in this matter. While it's not appropriate to praise you publicly, the province can give you some rewards in other ways. Tell me, what kind of reward would you like to get? Yang Yihe asked.

Qin Hai shook his head and said, "I don't need any reward, Governor Yang can affirm that the work I have done is already the biggest reward for me." ”

"Ha Luha, Lao Yue also said that you can't speak, I think you are very good at talking." Yang Yihe laughed and laughed for a while before he said again: "Well, this question is not suitable for you." The province owes you a favor, I will write it down first, and then I will consider you when I have the right opportunity in the future. ”

"Then thank you Governor Yang." Qin Hai bowed and said.

"Xiao Qin, I heard Commander Yue say that you have some experience in steelmaking, is that so?" After Yang Yihe finished talking about Ichiro Kawashima, he led the conversation to another topic.

Qin Haidao: "I studied casting in a technical school, and steelmaking is also one of our professional courses. I usually like to read professional books, so I do have some insights when it comes to steelmaking. ”

Yang Yihe asked: "Do you know anything about the situation at the Nord Stream steel plant?" ”

Qin Hai was stunned for a moment, not understanding why Yang Yihe would ask such a question. He thought for a moment and said: "I don't know much about Nord Stream steel plants. However, most of the steel used in our Qingfeng Agricultural Machinery Factory comes from the Nord Stream Iron and Steel Plant, and as far as I can see, the quality of these steels is not very good. ”

Yang Yihe nodded heavily and said, "You are right. The province has high hopes for the Nord Stream steel plant, but the production situation of the Nord Stream steel plant has been unsatisfactory all these years. The substandard quality of the steel you mentioned is only one aspect. Another aspect is that the output of the Nord Stream steel plant has been stagnant, which has seriously affected the infrastructure activities in the province. I came to Nord Stream this time, and I also planned to take the opportunity to knock on them. ”

"But...... What does this have to do with me? Qin Hai was a little confused.

Yang Yihe said: "I want to ask you to give full play to your ability to turn stones into gold and give the pulse of Nord Stream Iron and Steel Plant." (To be continued......)
