Rise of an Empire

"Warmly welcome the US delegation to Japan"

Looking at the deceptive banners hung at the airport, the Duke couldn't help but feel a stomach ache.

Are these Japanese people pretending to be confused because they understand, or do they really not know?

But fortunately, he is just a guest this time, so he doesn’t have to worry about those guys putting his name at the front and being embarrassed.

After several months of holding on, the Congress and the old guys finally couldn't stand it any longer. The hundreds of billions of dollars spent on military spending didn't even make a splash. No one can accept it.

What's more, according to the current calculation of the military strength of both sides, this war will last at least five or six years. After the Finance Department calculated an account at home, they almost jumped to the Capitol Hill collectively.

In the face of that astronomical budget, even the stubborn old guy can only nod indignantly.

After all, Vietnam cannot withdraw now. If it withdraws, it means losing. In that case, the myth of the United States being the best in the world will be destroyed.

Compared with spending money, the title of the world's most powerful country is more important.

So the guys have been arguing in Congress for several months, and finally reluctantly prepared to open a new processing base in Southeast Asia to offset the terrifying shipping costs.

But everyone knows very well that the only country in Southeast Asia that is qualified to become a processing base is Japan.

Although the whole country was devastated during World War II, Japan has struggled to develop under the control of the United States for more than two decades. Many people freeze to death every winter. It can be said that the country is in a complete mess and the people cannot survive.

However, everyone has to admit that Japan's basic industrial facilities and technical talent pool still rank first in Southeast Asia and even rank high in the world.

If we choose a place like the Philippines or Indonesia as a processing plant, it is estimated that just teaching the indigenous monkeys how to use power will be a century-old project, let alone how to control precision instruments.

However, although everyone has a final draft in mind, the form still needs to be worked out. Therefore, Congress specially prepared several delegations for this issue and went to Japan, the Philippines and other countries to conduct on-site inspections.

Originally, Conrad was not planning to come, but he could not resist Lyndon's persuasion. In addition, most people believed that the Duke had a unique vision and that coming for an inspection would enable him to conduct better business analysis, so he had no choice but to give him the title of Special Guest Advisor. Came to Japan with the delegation.

"Duke Weting, I would like to ask you to take care of me during this period."

Looking at the middle-aged man in his forties who is nodding and hunching in front of me, if he were not blond and blue-eyed, looking at his respectful appearance, I would probably think that he is Japanese.

"Mr. Rockson, you're welcome. If there is anything I can do to cooperate with your company, I will definitely speak up. Mr. Rockson, please don't refuse." Conrad sent the other person away helplessly, feeling that he was a little out of his mind. pain.

Ever since he became this bullshit guest relations consultant, I don’t know how many people have come to say hello to him and ask for a hug.

If it were just an ordinary cat or dog, Yamamura Sadako would have dismissed it, but like the guy just now, even Conrad had to give him some face.

Ferdinand Rockson, the son of old Rockson, the next leader of the Rockson Group, may be a little higher than him in terms of his status.

Currently, he has to receive several of these guys every day. Those old immortals can't come by themselves because of their reputation, so they have sent their successors one after another, hoping to make amends with Conrad and let him make everyone rich by the way.

After all, the relationship between us is still very good on the surface. Although there is some turmoil in private, in the face of capital, even the hatred of killing the father and taking the wife can be put aside. A little face is worth a lot of money.

Besides, it’s not like they came in person anyway, they are all in their seventies and eighties, so why don’t they just let their son play as a striker?

It's just that the old and immortal successors are all in their forties or fifties. Old Osborne, who only had an only son at the age of forty, can be said to be the only one in the top circle.

A group of uncles in their forties and fifties came over and asked for hugs, which made Conrad really unable to resist.

"Master, Japanese Prime Minister Sato
