Section 506 Japanese Americans
The biggest beneficiary of the Sino-US confrontation is naturally the British Empire, and the second beneficiary is definitely Japan, after Australia ruled Hawaii, the attitude towards the Japanese people was much better than that of the Americans, they gave the Japanese a considerable degree of autonomy, allowed them to form a parliament, and implemented internal autonomy to the greatest extent, just like the British ruled Australia.

The reason why this is so is not Australia's benevolence, if there is no political deal between Britain and Japan behind it, then hell, in the process of the British Empire's takeover of Hawaii, even the Japanese did not raise any objection to know the reason, and after Australia entered Hawaii, the Japanese ronin rebel army quickly laid down its arms, which is proof.
But there is no such thing as a free lunch, and the improvement of the status of Japanese Americans in Hawaii is based on the tremendous sacrifices made by Japanese Americans.
There are about 100,000 Japanese Americans in the United States, most of whom are concentrated on the West Coast of the United States, and there are more than 50,000 Japanese Americans in California.
Japanese Americans work and operate in the United States, and remit hundreds of millions of dollars to Japan every year, which is larger than Japan's trade surplus with the United States, and was originally Japan's second largest source of foreign exchange, second only to the income of Japanese girls from selling meat in China and the South Seas.
Although the losses are huge, it is still very cost-effective if it can be exchanged for maximum control of Hawaii. However, the Japanese government cannot sit idly by and ignore these Japanese people who have made great sacrifices.
Because the confrontation between the United States and China was caused by the uprising of the Japanese people in Hawaii, and the United States suffered great humiliation, the Americans, who were already seriously racist against the Asian population, were extremely hostile to the Japanese in the Western case, and extremist organizations such as the Ku Klux Klan launched various massacres against Japanese Americans.
Fortunately, at this time, there were basically no Chinese Americans in the United States, otherwise the biggest victims would have been Chinese Americans.
They hope to evacuate these 100,000 Japanese Americans to Hawaii, so that Japan's control over Hawaii will be stronger, and once these people are evacuated to Hawaii, the proportion of Japanese Americans in Hawaii will reach 80 percent, and Hawaii will become a region of Japanese social formation.
However, not everyone can agree to the Japanese scheme, the Americans do not agree, they have not given up their illusions about Hawaii, or what promises the British Empire has given them, the British can not agree either, they control Hawaii, almost in the mouth of China and the United States, the purpose is nothing more than to stabilize the hegemony of the Pacific region, so let Hawaii become a Japanese society, which is not good for British control.
Eventually, the Japanese found that they could only rely on China, hoping that China would help them evacuate American expatriates to Hawaii.
"Why are you suffering? Why do we have to evacuate expatriates to Hawaii all at once? Anyway, most of Hawaii is now Japanese, and it is now ruled by Australia, and there is no ban on Japanese immigration, so you can repatriate the expatriates first. If there is a need, it is not enough to encourage immigrants to Hawaii. ”
The Japanese are very smart, they understand the authoritative politics of the East very well, because they are the same, when Yamayama Aritomo and Ito Hirobumi are not in the government, no one will be stupid to ignore their influence on the government, so Japan in contact with the Chinese government at the same time, do not forget to send a senior official to visit Yang Chao, because Yang Chao's influence on the Chinese government is stronger than Yamayama Aritomo and Ito Hirobumi, and the shadow emperor is not called in vain.
Yang Chao advised them to first withdraw people to China, and then encourage the people of origin to go to Hawaii to operate, so that it would be less conspicuous and less irritating to the British, and after a few years, Hawaii would still be dominated by Japanese expatriates, and of course the number of Chinese expatriates would increase, but Chinese expatriates should only do business, not farmers.
"Also, the United States has been disarmed, and there is no need for you to continue to keep an army of 1 million, and it is not a blessing for the country to maintain a large army in peacetime."
Yang Chao also reminded the Japanese envoys.
Americans are worried about militarization, and Japan, which has a strong militaristic color, should be even more worried about this issue.
The Japanese envoy nodded, Japan's problems are indeed very serious, and by following China closely with China to take a tough attitude towards the United States, it has indeed greatly satisfied the mood of domestic nationalists, but at the same time, the fascist forces have risen greatly, fortunately, unlike the United States, Japan has a very prestigious imperial family, which is extremely important for Japan's stability, because even in the shogunate era, the emperor is always the emperor, and in Japanese culture, the emperor cannot be changed.
With Emperor Hirohito behind the scenes, the fascist forces were not out of control.
"We will reduce the number of troops to 500,000 as soon as possible."
Hikoyoshi Ijiin immediately said that this time, Japan was allowed to retain 1 million troops by cooperating with China, but it would always maintain 1 million troops, and it was impossible for China not to feel threatened and take matters into its own hands to reduce part of the army.
In addition, raising too many soldiers is also a huge pressure on Japan's finances, because after all, Japan is still in the period of reconstruction after the earthquake, and the level of fiscal revenue has not yet reached the level before the earthquake.
However, by stimulating the national spirit, the morale of the people of Japan, a single nation-state, can be regarded as completely recovering from the blow of the earthquake, especially the victory of Hawaii, which made the Japanese feel that even if the Japanese archipelago is silent, they have the opportunity to emigrate to other places, such as Hawaii. Although Hawaii is also an island and not as big as the Japanese archipelago, it is still a psychological comfort.
As soon as the morale of the people increased, Japan's economic situation improved, the social problems caused by the earthquake were basically solved, and the people of the Kanto region found jobs again, the houses that should be built were built, the roads that needed to be repaired were repaired, and factories were reopened.
But it will not be easy to return to the economic situation of the past, unless it can be helped by China.
For example: "Can adults help liberalize the issue of tariffs on textiles?" ”
Every time Ijiin Hikoyoshi saw Yang Chao, he had to mention the issue of textile tariffs, although he didn't have much hope, what if it was realized?
As in the past, Yang Chao still laughed: "Is it possible for Japan to open tariffs on mechanical products?" I've heard that Japan has recently imposed tariffs on Chinese cars, which is not a good sign. ”
Yang Chao not only refused to agree to liberalize tariffs on textiles, but also put forward his views on the issue of Japan's import tariffs on Chinese automobiles, which began in the second half of last year.
The production scale of Skoda-based cars produced by Yangzi Automobile Company has reached 100,000 units, which makes China a major car producer after the United States, and at the same time, it also allows Japan to increase tariffs on a Chinese product. (To be continued.) )
