At the beginning of 2013, any company or individual in China and Japan was nervous.

Two countries are doing all kinds of things for their own ideas, and it is those who are caught between the two countries who suffer.

Some of these people are self-chosen, and some are forced to do so.

Zhou Xiao accounts for both.

What he can't choose is his identity, what he can choose is his position, if he can, he can actually completely fall to a certain force, so that he doesn't have to think about currying favor with both parties at the same time.

But alas, he can't do that.

He can only bite the bullet and find a balance between the two.

So when the Japanese side attacked him again, he had no way to prevent it.

In fact, Zhou Xiao is the kind of person who likes to do things as soon as possible, and is more inclined to strangle danger in the cradle than in the face of danger, so in order to make many things run as usual, he also does a lot of things behind the scenes, but it turns out that when some people are deliberately trying to deal with you, although these efforts cannot be said to be completely ineffective, at least the decisive role cannot be achieved by relying on these front-loaded and behind-the-scenes means.

Just like what Koizumi Abe said before, they didn't really deliberately try to deal with Zhou Xiao, nor did they really look at how unpleasant Zhou Xiao was, the reason why they would do this was simply because Zhou Xiao happened to be in their way, and it was the biggest stumbling block.

The first to make a move is still on the Internet.

Moreover, the first thing that broke out didn't seem to have anything to do with Zhou Xiao.

Explosions, porcelain touching, false propaganda, forced buying and selling......

All sorts of news about China are starting to spread on the Internet and on television, and all kinds of news about China are happening.

But does this news show how bad the Chinese are?

Why did many of these news go unnoticed in China, but became popular in Japan?

Quite simply, when these news are put on the Chinese Internet, the news is surrounded by countless news items of all kinds, large and small. China is so big, huge China's huge network, such a big country, so many people, it can be said that no matter what happens, it is not surprising.

In China, there are countless news stories happening every day in hundreds of cities across the country, and most of this negative news will be drowned in other news, big and small, and too few can really attract people's attention.

But when these news are brought to Japan by people with intentions, it is different.

Japanese websites and media are not the kind of people who only like hello, hello, hello, hello news, they also know that the more sensational they are. News that is full of violence or is deflated as an adversary will be more interesting to readers.

Coupled with the guidance that can be provided, people soon formed a habit, and the editors on the Internet began to deliberately look for those eye-catching news about China to introduce to Japan.

Among them, explosions, counterfeiting and murder are more likely to attract the attention of Japanese readers.

It's always easy for people to be fooled, and there are a lot of such news, and it's not long, just a month or two. People's impression of China began to gradually change.

In the past, people's impression of China gradually changed, they didn't feel that they were wrong, they just felt that the Internet tide was coming, and they began to know more about China.

And what they learned was: Some people in China are gradually getting rich, and places such as the magic capital are very developed, but under this development, there are still hundreds of millions of people who do not have enough food and clothing. Even if it is a magic capital, there is a lot of darkness behind it, and people are very selfish. Do a lot of excessive things, the pollution is serious, the streets are full of old ladies touching porcelain, and everything you buy, even rice, is in danger of exploding......

Limited to the narrow access to information, the perspective of ordinary people is always one-sided, these Japanese prejudice against Chinese is simply too normal, Chinese do not have a variety of prejudices against the Japanese, because the most ordinary ordinary people in the two countries naturally cannot personally understand the country outside their own, to understand the country and its people in depth.

Prejudice caused by a one-sided perspective is often more hurtful than not knowing the other person at all.

Ordinary people's opinions on many things are really easy to be swayed, and if you are serious, things like the media are very easy to do when they are told to do something to control public opinion.

The so-called freedom of the press is often in the service of political needs, of course, it does not mean that there is no such anti-political media at all, but in many cases, often even the existence of such media is actually a political need.

Political necessity, political correctness, the media and political parties often rely on these to achieve their goals in a more secretive and less radical way that looks soft but is actually a blunt knife to kill.

After such reports have passed for a period of time, looking at the favorability of Japanese people towards Chinese, the feelings that account for negative emotions have increased by more than 10%.

At the same time, presumably the Chinese on the other side are similar.

However, the slight difference is that limited to the position they have been in these years, so Chinese are much more honest about some things, and although most Chinese hate Japan, they all admit that Japan is more advanced than China, that Japanese society is better than China at this stage, and that China does still have various problems.

Most Japanese people absolutely do not want to admit that China is about to surpass Japan as the leader of Asia, nor do they want to admit that Japan will be subject to China to a great extent in the future......

Zhou Xiao is also helpless to see the media and civil voices of the two countries, and he can't do anything in the face of these carefully selected news, or rather, he is now in a situation where he is getting more and more wrong, and can only watch the favorability of Chinese people drop more and more in Japan.

All he can do is to leave the country as much as possible, and work hard to brush up on his favorability, so that the Japanese can remember that Zhou Xiao is a person who can never be avoided from his perception of China.

Sometimes even he himself feels a little wry, if he changes direction, in Abe's opinion, Zhou Xiao's existence is simply an eyesore to the point of exploding, no matter what they want to do. This man is all in the way.

AKB, which has just started in 13 years, has a lot to do.

In the spring of this year, although the single was not released, there was no shortage of live, and the various handshake activities that had been backlogged before also ushered in a small outbreak again in a few years, because of the graduation announcement of Maeda and Yuko.

Graduation announcements, the time when graduation is just announced and the time when graduation is approaching is undoubtedly the most concerned, and after the graduation is announced, the handshake between the two girls will apply for another explosion.

Originally, after more than two years of popularity consolidation, the handshake party of the AKB Group, the popularity of Kashiwagi's handshake with members such as Reina Matsui has gradually surpassed Maeda Oshima. After all, these two girls are well-known fishing gods.

But after announcing the graduation matters, of course, the rice players wanted to seize more opportunities to "shake" them one last time, so the handshake queue of the two girls was enriched again to form the head of the long snake.

This year's AKB Group Spring CON was held at the Budokan AKB Group Temporary General Meeting, which was held by SKE, NMB, HKT and AKB teams in the first three days of four performances, and then all the teams performed a final performance together, giving the girls a good opportunity to show off their characteristics for four days.

And at the final ensemble performance. The girls from SNH and JKT also appeared together for a public performance, and SNH had never appeared on the stage of the AKB Group in his previous life, so Zhou Xiao didn't have any worries here, and directly brought the girls from SNH to the stage.

As for the performance...... The stage is definitely not as good as the professional idols of Japan. But in terms of momentum, especially in height, the girls are generally taller than the AKB group, which also makes the AKB girls very inferior.

SNH's staging. The Japanese media are the ones who are most concerned.

In the delicate context of China and Japan, in fact, there have always been many media that have made a fuss through this, such as the immigration of Sae Miyazawa. NHK sent reporters to follow the whole process, and Lee Chun has attracted a lot of attention since he joined AKB.

Now that SNH girls have joined the AKB group and even sung on stage, the significance is obviously deeper than that of Li Chun working alone in AKB, and some media even speculated whether SNH would make her debut in Japan next.

Of course, it's still early to make a debut, but SNH has indeed caused a certain repercussion among Japanese otaku.

Tang Min and Zhao Jiamin are actually already popular in Japan, and the two girls have also taken on a lot of magazine shooting jobs in Japan after doing the hitchhike show, and they only know the two of them in SNH, but after CON debuted in the spring, more SNH girls were recognized by the rice.

Zhang Yuge's cuteness...... Qiu Xinyi's Taiwanese attributes...... The handsome Chen Guanhui ...... Chen Si playing nunchucks...... Of course, there are many people who have seen Xu Jiao who acted in the movie, and their initial understanding of SNH cannot be too profound, but just through their appearance, this group of girls is enough to make people remember.

After the spring con, the attention that SNH received naturally attracted the attention and reports of NHK for them, of course, to be favored by NHK, in addition to the girls' own efforts, Zhou Xiao's influence should not be underestimated.

In addition, media magazines close to Zhou Xiaoqiu Yuanyasu, including EX Volkswagen, have also sent invitations to SNH girls, but there are some differences with the positioning of AKB girls, SNH members can't produce swimsuits in Japan at least now, Zhou Xiao thinks, after all, it's Chinese girls, it's more appropriate to be conservative, even if you really want to disclose swimsuits in the future, it should be in the Chinese media instead of Japan, otherwise wouldn't it seem that the girls are too cheap.

For the general trend of China and Japan, for the Japanese government, which has long made up its mind to awaken and do something, the role played by SNH is of course a drop in the bucket, but it is not necessarily true if it is completely ineffective, at least those meals are quite like this, and on the Internet, there are even some meals that are thinking about going to the expedition to the magic capital to watch the performance.

Such a voice is not loud, but even if there is only one, as long as he is seen, it can play a considerable role, can make many people pay more attention to SNH, and have less hatred for China and Chinese.

If those messy reports can cause 100 points of damage to Sino-Japanese relations every time, Zhou Xiao and SNH girls don't seem to have anything to do with it, and the efforts of simple business behavior may only save 1 point of damage at a time, such a small achievement is helpless, but there is no way. That's what they're capable of, there's only so much they can do.

This kind of futile effort is not unnoticed, and some people will feel that Zhou Xiao is so troubled after noticing, but it is very likely that he will not get any reward for his hard work.

This is actually a good reaction, and the most chilling thing is the reaction of those who were originally thinking about dealing with the forces on Zhou Xiao's side.

After the AKB group's spring convened, such an article was published in a newspaper controlled by Abe's party.

The title is "Zhou Xiao and His Kingdom, Like Don Quixote's Charge".

The article was apparently written by a conservative literati, and the whole article was full of bitter ridicule of Zhou Xiao and his various actions, as well as ridicule of slanderers of China.

"No matter how much Zhou Xiao does, it is impossible to change the image of the Japanese towards the Chinese."

"He rushed like Don Quixote at the giant windmill giant. The good qualities of the so-called Chinese, who do not exist in the world and belong to the fantasies in his heart, prove his hypocritical nature. ”

"Don't be fooled by those girls on SNN, they are Chinese, once you are entangled by them, you will quickly close your wallet, your home will explode, and everything you have survived so far will change......"

This article ...... In Zhou Xiao's opinion, it is almost a wolf's ambition, what is the most excessive? The most excessive is by no means that the article has done so much dirty slander against Zhou Xiao, AKB and SNH. But the article tacitly acquiesced to a point of view from the beginning, that is, Zhou Xiao is Chinese, and what Zhou Xiao is doing is trying to earn impression points for Chinese!

Although he did think so in his heart, Zhou Xiao also had a reason, if it was really Zhou Xiao, who grew up in Japan, maybe there would be some struggles at this time. But his soul is originally Chinese, and as a Chinese, he has the most essential difference from Zhou Xiao, a Japanese who grew up as a Japanese, such a he. It is a matter of course to think about China.

However, just because he thinks this way in his heart doesn't mean that he wants the Japanese to think the same way, because once people have established his identity. In the future, his identity in Japan will be confirmed, and if he waits ten or twenty years later, when he becomes famous and even starts to think about retirement, he may have an attitude of indifference, but at least for now, he does not want to leave such an impression in the hearts of Japanese people, because he wants to do more.

Because of this, Zhou Xiao's heart was cold when he saw this article, things were terrible, he thought.

However, just as he had faced those slanders before, he could not refute this kind of thing at all, because the more he said, the more wrong he became, and no matter how he explained it, there must always be some tendency, which would easily be interpreted by the media and have a very bad impact on him.

Zhou Xiao is not only facing opponents, but sometimes ...... Pig teammates.

For example, after this incident, there were many reports in the Chinese media, the so-called Japanese hate what we like, and after reading the report, the Chinese side began to praise Zhou Xiao vigorously, praising his efforts for Sino-Japanese relations, and praising everything he did at a young age......

After reading these reports, Zhou Xiao almost didn't smash the computer, he can't wash the relationship now if he wants to, these media reports are not adding fuel to the fire, now it's okay, I'm afraid the media on the Japanese side will break out again, it is estimated that the Japanese side will definitely feel that Zhou Xiao really has a relationship with China, otherwise why would China speak for him all the time.

Just when Zhou Xiao was pulling out the cold in his heart, fortunately, he had full communication with Pan Jiale and the old man above, and everyone was very aware of the sensitivity of his position, so under the instruction of the above, various documents were quickly posted on Weibo and other social media.

"News about Zhou Xiao is not allowed to be promoted, and it is forbidden to become headlines or recommendations."

Such a message was sent from above, and it was easy for ordinary people to interpret it as if they didn't like Zhou Xiao at the top, not to mention ordinary people, even many middle-level executives who were not so sensitive guessed the above ideas wrongly, and the Chinese reaction was very fast in this kind of thing, so it ......

SNH Theater was investigated by several departments in one day, from health to taxation, and various departments came to investigate SNH and AZX as if they had made an appointment.

It's just that Zhou Xiao is not convenient to explain too much, so he has to tell the company to be cautious and be a little more conservative during this time.

This kind of situation, Zhou Xiao has actually encountered it once last year, but this time the situation is obviously more excessive and dangerous, those who dealt with themselves before have not become the ruling party, and Abe has not become the prime minister, don't look at it is just a small difference in identity, they were too far from the current one in terms of execution and control.

At that time, they may have had to put some thought into dealing with themselves, but now, it is just a matter of considering how much it will cost to do this, and whether it will be cost-effective after doing this.

Of course, even if he knew this, Zhou Xiao would not say that he would not resist at all. (To be continued......)
