Hardy Empire 1945

Two days later.

The editor-in-chief of the Global Times brought several of his most capable reporters to Sutherland, Chief of Staff of the Allied Command. Sutherland immediately contacted MacArthur. At the same time, these reporters would go to other locations to interview all division chiefs.

This time, not only the Global Times, but also the photographers of ABC TV.

MacArthur loves to behave naturally, his military uniform is ironed, his hat is a bit slanted, and the iconic corncob pipe is in his mouth.

MacArthur's attire is different from that of most serious soldiers, especially after the occupation of Japan, his power has expanded even more, so that he is no longer restricted by any regulations.

MacArthur likes the feeling of standing in front of the camera. The whole person seems very high-spirited, and he always wants to run for president. He feels that reporter interviews are helpful to improve his reputation, so he is willing to accept interviews.

Faced with reporters' questions, MacArthur spoke freely.

"Since I came to Japan, I have done a lot of things. I led the army to occupy here, let the Japanese surrender, and ended the Japanese war of aggression in Asia."

"I set up a military court to deal with war criminals, including the Emperor of Japan."

"I have carried out political reforms in Japan, abolished Japan's emperor system, ended the emperor's feudal rule, formulated a new constitution for Japan, implemented an American-style free economic policy in Japan, and promoted American-style freedom of the press and freedom of speech."

The more he talked, the more excited he got.

"To the Japanese, you have to treat it as a beast, so that it will respect you. If you defeat him, if you are convinced, he will voluntarily call his wife and daughter to sleep with you. The truth is to use an iron fist to Japan. "

The reporters were surprised,

Even the officer next to him was dumbfounded.

But MacArthur always speaks surprisingly, and they can't stop it.

After interviewing MacArthur, MacArthur took reporters and photographers to visit the military base.

MacArthur is very talented in acting. He not only dresses as a maverick, but also speaks. For this interview, he held a small military parade. Soldiers stand on the playground and MacArthur stands on the command vehicle to review them. .

After that, the aircraft carrier formation was dispatched to a fleet exercise at sea. The aircraft carrier took the lead, followed by more than a dozen ships. It was so majestic to cut through the waves. MacArthur stood on the deck with a wide sunglasses on his face. It was called an eagle.

Afterwards, reporters and TV stations interviewed many division commanders stationed in Japan and South Korea, the commander of the Eighth Army, Lieutenant General Walton Walker, Major General Hobart Gay, the 1st Cavalry Division commander, and Oli, the 1st Marine Division commander. Major General Hua Smith, Major General Lawrence Kaiser, Commander of 2nd Infantry Division, Major General Robert Saul, Commander of 3rd Infantry Division, Major General Dai Barr, Commander of US 7th Division, Major General William Dean, Commander of US 24th Division, Major General William Dean, US 25th Division Major General William Keane...

It didn't take long for the Global Times to report on the interview. The first report was naturally MacArthur. MacArthur's resume was called a beautiful one. He graduated from West Point Military Academy and was the chief of staff of the division at the age of 37. He went to France to participate in the First World War.

In 1919, he served as the principal of the West Point Military Academy. In 1922, he went to the Philippines as the commander of the Manila Special Administrative Region. Major General Jin in 1925, Commander of the 3rd US Military Region, Commander of the US Army in the Philippines in 1928, Chief of Staff of the US Army in 1930, Commander of the US Army in the Far East in 1941, Commander-in-Chief of the Allied Forces in the Southwest Pacific in 1942, and appointed to Japan in 1945 The Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces.

certainly.

When he attacked the Philippines after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, he ran away alone and left the army, naturally, he didn't mention it.

Then I will introduce what MacArthur did in Japan, how to transform Japan step by step, and implement his own plans and policies in Japan.

The Global Times did not make any changes to MacArthur’s words, and reported them intact, including his sentence, "For the Japanese, you should treat them as beasts, and they will respect you. If you defeat him, you will be convinced. He will voluntarily call his wife and daughter to sleep with you. Using an iron fist against Japan is the truth."

to be honest,

In the eyes of some Japanese people, MacArthur had a good impression, especially in the eyes of ordinary people, because he implemented land reforms on Japan. In the past, most of the land in Japan was in the hands of the royal family and nobles. MacArthur came with one. Anyone can buy land by confiscating land across the country and then selling it to other countries.

There is no money to borrow, or to owe debts, so many people at the bottom have been allocated the land, and these people are naturally grateful to him.

But those Japanese government officials, rich people, businessmen, or scholars have gritted their teeth against MacArthur who occupied their country, but the other party is too powerful, they can't afford it.

Pretend to obey on the surface.

Another point is that the Japanese pretend to be respectful to MacArthur, also for their own face, so that they can pretend that nothing happened.

Some people like to lie to themselves the most.

Everyone can live in harmony on the surface, and life can continue.

But MacArthur’s sentence in the Global Times really hurts the Japanese people’s heart. Even if we are beaten up, scared, and sent to a woman to let you sleep, don’t say it so bluntly. How can people have a face to live.

this moment.

The little bit of goodwill the Japanese had for MacArthur vanished in an instant.

On the ABC TV station that evening, an interview with MacArthur was broadcast again. MacArthur stood on the deck of the aircraft carrier with a pipe in his mouth. Behind him were rows of warships splitting the waves in the sea.

That's a high spirit.

MacArthur also watched TV that night and was very satisfied with his performance on the TV. As for what the Japanese think, he doesn't care.

He has always been a strong and arrogant person, and the old special of later generations can't compare to the old wheat of the present.

The newspaper of the second day began to introduce the Allied generals.

Major General Robert Saul, commander of the 3rd Infantry Division. The 3rd American Division was established in 1917. Because of its outstanding contributions in the Battle of the Marx in World War I, this division was also called the "Marx and Marx" division. The division has a total of more than 16,000 people. , Under the jurisdiction of 3 infantry regiments, 5 artillery battalions and 4 directly affiliated battalions, with 333 tanks, 411 armored vehicles, 583 artillery.

The data is very detailed, demonstrating the powerful combat capabilities of the US military.

The ABC TV station that evening cooperated with the report on the 3rd Division of the United States.

......

This time.

Harbin began to inspect various industries.

Hardy came to the Nikon camera factory. The current general manager here is a Japanese, but the executive director is an American. Nikon now has a dust-free workshop, and the lens is covered with a glass cover to minimize the entry of dust.

In addition to producing lens lenses and camera parts for American camera manufacturers, they also produce their own cameras. They have developed several Nikon cameras. Before leaving, Hardy was given a new camera.

This camera is not much different from later film cameras, and Hardy smiled and accepted it.

Sony TV Factory.

More than 20 directors, managers, and supervisors accompanied Hardy to inspect the TV production line that has already started production.

This production line is shipped from the United States, and the technology is also American technology. In fact, not only Sony, Toshiba and Panasonic also set up TV factories at the same time.

On the one hand, they produce spare parts for the MEBO TV company under Hardy, and on the other hand they also produce their own brand televisions.

Today, MEBO TV is still the largest TV manufacturer in the United States, earning tens of millions of dollars a year. Now the US economic environment is getting better and better, and the popularity of home appliances is fast. The sales of MEBO TVs are very good. Demand exceeds supply.

It's just that the industrial chain is so large that it can't meet the market demand for a while. Since Japan began to help produce spare parts, the MEBO TV factory has directly assembled them, and the production speed has increased by 50%.

at the same time.

Several manufacturers such as Sony, Panasonic, and Toshiba have also produced their own TV sets, which have already begun to sell in Japan during this time.

Hardy asked the accompanying director: "How about the sales of TV sets in Japan?"

The director said: "We set a price of US$100 for a TV set, which is already US$27 cheaper than a MEBO TV, but sales are still not very good."

"Families who can afford TV sets made in Japanese factories are more willing to buy American products, while families who don't have money can hardly come up with $100."

"How many TV sets are produced by the three TV companies now?" Hardy asked.

"The output of the three companies is roughly the same, each with a monthly output of more than 1,000 units, and the total output is about 4,000 units." Main pipeline.

Hardy thought for a while and said:

"In this way, I asked Wells Fargo Bank to get an interest-free mortgage loan business. If you have assets, as long as the value is more than 100 US dollars, you can apply for a mortgage loan at Wells Fargo Bank, and it is interest-free. This money is used to buy TV sets, and Wells Fargo Bank directly Open a TV purchase voucher, go to the mall to pick up the TV, and pay off the loan in 1 year."

The person in charge was overjoyed.

This kind of activity is equivalent to Wells Fargo spending money to subsidize the company, but not earning a penny, and no bank will accept this kind of business.

The heads of these companies couldn't help but thank Hardy.

In fact, for Hardy, these are not much money at all, up to more than 400,000 yuan a month. He has his own idea. He wants to let the Japanese popularize TV as soon as possible, so that the influence of ABC TV station will expand, which is comparable to each other. 400,000 a month is much more important.

Even for advertising, the money is worth spending.

Besides, it's not that you don't pay it back, it just takes up one year of funds.

The next day.

The Global Times advertised.

"The Hardy Group Wells Fargo Bank launched an interest-free loan to purchase TV sets."

"As long as you work in a government or enterprise and have a stable income, you can apply for a credit loan at Wells Fargo Bank and buy a TV to enjoy your entertainment life."

"If you have more than $100 in collateral, including real estate, land, cars, jewelry, etc., you can go to Wells Fargo Bank for mortgage, apply for a loan to buy a TV, and enjoy your entertainment life."

"This matter was ordered by the special envoy of Hardy, and the main purpose is to let the Japanese people enjoy the entertainment program as soon as possible, and to enrich the spiritual, cultural and entertainment life of the Japanese people."

Hardy placed TV sets on the streets of the square, which made many Japanese people watch TV programs for the first time and was deeply attracted by TV programs.

Nowadays, on the streets of Japan, there is a unique scenery every night, that is, where the TV is placed, crowded with a large group of people watching the show, because of the popularity, it attracts many small vendors to sell soda drinks, snacks and other things.

A small consumer market has formed ~www.readwn.com~ Many people have long wanted to own a TV, but they have no money in their hands. This interest-free loan is definitely an opportunity.

Many people work in companies of the seven major consortiums, and earn more than 20 dollars a month. The TV is worth 100 dollars and requires a one-year payment. That is enough to pay 10 dollars in that month, and the remaining money is enough. Life.

Many people immediately went to Wells Fargo Bank to apply for loans, and TV sales were booming, which also made more Japanese people watch TVs.

Many people expressed their gratitude to Special Envoy Hardy for this move. Compared with MacArthur, Envoy Hardy did a lot better than MacArthur. Although they bought Japanese companies, they really made Japan. The economy has been restored.

As for whether those companies belong to the Japanese chaebols or the American chaebols, the people don't really care, and they don't belong to themselves anyway. As long as their lives can be better, it is actually good to belong to the Americans.

For Hardy, these Japanese people are even more grateful.

Hardy has now replaced MacArthur as the new Japanese saint.
