Beiyang reactionaries

The top leaders of China and Japan are aware that although the war between the two countries is over, the relationship is still very poor.It's just that for now, neither country wants to tear their skins apart, and both have some needs for each other.

If Japan needs disaster relief and restores their industrial level, large quantities of raw materials are needed.At present, the raw materials provided by China are relatively cheap in the world.

Moreover, China and Japan are so close to each other, so the shipping cost is very cheap.Therefore, Japan needs China to provide raw materials.Similarly, China's current strength is insufficient, and it is still in the stage of continuously increasing its strength.

I don't want to really risk my life with Japan.

China also needs Japan.The machinery and equipment that China currently needs for industrial development, the machinery and equipment of Britain and the United States are very good, but they are too expensive.Compared with German and Japanese machinery and equipment, the price is much lower.

The cheapest in Japan.

China currently lacks foreign exchange, so try to buy some cheap machinery and equipment.Among them, Japanese machinery and equipment occupy a large share.

So the two countries pretended to be peaceful and friendly.

But let's not talk about whether it's fake or not, on the surface, we still need to maintain a friendly appearance between the two sides.

"Since this is the case, shouldn't your country continue to attack our country and continue to target our country?"

"of course."

Song Hanzhang nodded again.

Yoshizawa Kenkichi said at this time: "Since this is the case, how can the Shanghai Municipal Government issue an ultimatum to the enterprises of Chinese businessmen? And only three days. Not only the Shanghai Municipal Government is like this, Shanghai people are also wantonly attacking Chinese businessmen, attacking Chinese goods. I want to protest against this, against the decision of the Shanghai Municipal Government, and against your government for not doing enough to solve the current public opinion problem. On behalf of the imperial government, I hope that your country can properly resolve the current situation in Shanghai It is hoped that the issue of public opinion will be resolved. The Shanghai Municipal Government should come up with a friendly plan instead of issuing an ultimatum. This is destroying the friendly peace between the two countries."

"Minister Fangze, what you said is completely different from what I know."

Song Hanzhang shook his head.

He said very seriously: "Minister Fangze, I am here to condemn businessmen from your country. We in China welcome businessmen from your country to invest in and build factories in China and do business in China. We are willing to protect the life and property of your businessmen in our country, and also guarantee the safety of your country's businessmen. Businessmen from your country can do business normally in our country. But likewise, your businessmen should abide by the laws of our country and respect the people of our country. However, businessmen from your country have not paid their wages properly for five consecutive months, and even in the past three months, several companies have No salary has been paid. What do you mean by businessmen from your country? Could it be that businessmen from your country regard Chinese workers as your free coolies? The reason why the public opinion in Shanghai is against your businessmen and your products is that It is caused by the unscrupulous businessmen of your country. Regarding the current public opinion, I think the businessmen of your country should do a good job of self-criticism first."

Song Hanzhang directly asked Fangze Qianji.

There is no previous kindness, nor the previous peace.

Criticize those Japanese businessmen directly and push all the responsibilities to those Japanese businessmen.

Hearing Song Hanzhang's words, Fangze Qianji immediately said: "President Song, I don't agree with what you said. Our businessmen have never thought of not paying their salaries. It's just because of well-known reasons, so the company's business is not good at present, and we can't get paid. It’s just money. I think such issues can be sat down and discussed slowly, and such drastic things should not happen. Our businessmen will definitely find a way to pay their salaries.”

"Minister Fangze, it's normal to make money and lose money in business. No company in the world can guarantee that it will always make money. Don't you think so?"

"Yes, President Song is right. Now our businessmen are facing a temporary crisis. But as long as we are given some time, we will be able to solve this problem. I hope your government can come forward to appease those workers. Our businessmen will definitely Find a way to solve it."

Yoshizawa Kenkichi lowered his head slightly.

Amicable.

Because he couldn't help it.Japanese businessmen and Japanese products used to do a lot of business in China and made a lot of money.But now because of the relationship between China and Japan, the business is constantly shrinking.

Japan suffered heavy losses.

Of course, the bigger problem is that Japan has many companies in China, and the situation is not good now.Most Japanese companies are currently in arrears of wages in China.

So this time things are very important.

If the matter is not handled well this time and is forced to go bankrupt by the Chinese government, what will other Japanese companies do then?Other Japanese companies followed suit. Workers asked for wages again, and the Chinese government forced them to go bankrupt. What will they do then?Not to mention other enterprises, just the spinning mills, Japan has more than 50 in China.

There are 23 in Shanghai, a dozen in Qingdao, quite a few in Tianjin, and many more in the Northeast, Central, and Southwest cities.Especially when Duan Xun had a good relationship with Japan, Japan established many spinning mills along the Yangtze River.Including forcing the British and French spinning mills to go bankrupt, and then annexing their spinning mills.

When the Japanese company was at its peak, it once occupied 60.00% of the Chinese textile market.

dominoes.

Once there is a problem in Shanghai, all the spinning mills in China may have problems.

What to do then?

Forced bankruptcy?

The factories that Japan has worked so hard to build in China for so many years have all become Chinese in one fell swoop.After such a lap, how much money did Japan lose?

Japan has so many assets in China, all of which are in vain. Instead, it feeds China's textile industry.

This doesn't work.

That's why Yoshizawa Kenkichi was very anxious and lowered his posture slightly.

"Minister Fangze, when will they be able to solve it? One day, one month or one year? You shouldn't come to me for such a thing. Those mill owners should talk to the workers. As long as they can persuade the workers to end the current situation, then our government It is impossible to intervene. Because after all, this is the company's own business, and government departments should not get involved casually."

"This……"

Yoshizawa Kenji was furious.

Worker?

Why didn't the owner of the spinning mill negotiate with the workers?But the "workers' representatives" were resolute and made too many demands.Not only are they required to pay all wages in arrears, but also all the money withheld as reserves.

This is a lot of numbers.

Even some small factories have to spend at least 5 yuan.And some large factories have more than 20 yuan in salary and reserves alone.These days, the orders of spinning mills have decreased, and as long as they start working, they will lose money. These are not small sums.

Everyone is tight.

The bigger problem is the constant urging from those suppliers, who are selling them cotton, and banking institutions.

ask for money.

And they want to borrow money from banks, and none of these banking institutions are willing to borrow money.Originally, these spinning mills were only temporarily unable to turn around, and the factories were still worth a lot of money there.

Even for those small factories, the total number of workshops and machinery and equipment is hundreds of thousands.And those big factories, powerful factories, workshops and machinery and equipment add up to several million, or even tens of millions of assets.

It used to be easy to get a loan.

But this time is different.Any financial institution refused to give them a loan.

In a hurry.

It's not that the mill owners didn't talk to the workers, but the workers just didn't listen.No matter how they talked, they would not agree.They asked the factory to take out all the money at once.

The boss of the Japanese spinning mill knew that someone must have instructed these workers behind this.

"Minister Fangze, I advise you not to waste your time with me. It's better to persuade the owners of the spinning mills to settle the workers' salaries quickly and resolve this situation. Moreover, if you make a profit or lose money in business, you have to admit it if you lose."

Song Hanzhang shook his head.

Then he picked up the teacup and blew a few sips gently.Then look at Yoshizawa Kenkichi and tell him you should go.Fangze Qianji was in a very bad mood seeing Song Hanzhang ignoring him at all.

damn it.
