Chapter 229 Close the door and beat the dog
"Mr. Liu, what a coincidence!"
Jeff Kozuka forced a brilliant smile, but it had to be brilliant because behind Liu Hongmin was the videographer from the middle stage.
It doesn't matter that they couldn't escape, but the incident was recorded truthfully by the video camera. If Liu Hongmin confirms it, then the entire Japanese army will become a laughing stock in the international community.
You have to have a meeting if you want to, and you don't have to have a meeting if you don't want to. If you run away in the middle of a meeting, this is an anecdote for the ages!
"What a coincidence!" Liu Hongmin swept his finger over it, "What are you doing here at the back door with so many people?"
Jeff Kozuka: "We are here for a tour. We have stayed at the Jinpeng Hotel for many days, but we haven't taken a good look at the hotel yet. It just so happens that we all have some time today, so we decided to go for a tour together."
"Really?" Liu Hongmin was amused. Make it up! You keep making it up!
"It just so happens that I am free, so why not let me, as your host, show you around."
After saying that, without waiting for Xiaozuka Jeff to refuse, he walked in front of the Japanese soldiers and said, "Everyone, please follow me!"
The Japanese soldiers immediately had a bad feeling, but they had no choice but to follow him under the camera. However, they soon discovered that Liu Hongmin seemed to be really taking them on a tour.
"This is the hotel lobby. When designing the lobby, we referred to the structures of many dome buildings..."
"This is a small banquet hall, with a European design that draws on many famous buildings..."
"This is the grand banquet hall, mainly used for weddings..."
From the first floor to the tenth floor, Liu Hongmin gave a very detailed introduction, like a tour guide.
The walk lasted two hours, and the Japanese soldiers were a little tired. They followed Liu Hongmin and came to a familiar gate.
Liu Hongmin pushed the door open and walked in with the little devils. As soon as the little devils entered, they found something wrong. Wasn't this the meeting room where the meeting was held in the morning?
The Japanese soldiers immediately turned around and tried to retreat.
But Chen Yu and the security guards were already blocking the door and closed it.
Liu Hongmin smiled and said, "Everyone, we have finished the tour. It is getting late, let's continue the meeting."
The Japanese soldiers looked at each other in bewilderment, but in front of the video camera, they couldn't refuse, so they had to sit down.
"Sir, what should we do now? Should we continue to delay?"
The person in charge nodded. "There is no other way now. We can only continue to delay. I don't believe that those reporters will still be able to block the door at night."
After the discussion was concluded, the Japanese scholar stood up and said, "Then let's continue to verify the evidence."
Liu Hongmin waved his hand, "Please feel free to do as you please."
The Japanese scholars immediately went to verify the evidence. They had been walking for the whole afternoon and were exhausted. They dozed off from time to time, and the speed of verifying the evidence was even slower than in the morning.
Mr. Huo smiled, turned to Liu Hongmin and said, "Do you want to wait?"
Liu Hongmin raised his lips and said, "Let them be busy for a while, isn't it nice for us to just watch the excitement?"
Mr. Huo: "You are such a mean guy, but I like it!"
Everyone in the Renjiao Society held back their laughter and cooperated with the Japanese to verify the evidence.
Two hours passed, and just when the Japanese thought they could drag it out for the day, Liu Hongmin spoke.
“How many pieces of evidence have been verified now?”
"124 copies."
Liu Hongmin stood up and looked at the person in charge and Xiaozuka Jiefu, "Now we have verified 124 pieces of evidence. What do you think?" Xiaozuka Jiefu looked at the person in charge worriedly. The person in charge forced a smile and said, "Mr. Liu, don't be so anxious. Aren't there still so many pieces of evidence that have not been verified?"
"We can verify those slowly. There's no need to rush." Liu Hongmin said calmly, "Now your people have verified 124 pieces of evidence. All of them are true. So according to the agreement of our cooperation this time, you should correct these errors."
The person in charge wanted to delay, "It won't be too late after all the evidence is verified."
Liu Hongmin tapped the table with his fingers. "You two, don't you want to cooperate?"
The person in charge smiled and said, "Why wouldn't we want to cooperate?"
Liu Hongmin sneered and said, "You want to cooperate, but you don't intend to fulfill the cooperation agreement?"
"No! We just want to verify all the evidence and then make corrections together."
"Oh!" Liu Hongmin suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. I was wrong about you."
He took out an agreement and pushed it in front of the two of them, "As long as you sign this, I will trust you."
The two men picked up the agreement, took a look at it, and then stood up suddenly.
"Mr. Liu, this is impossible. We will never sign it."
Liu Hongmin smiled and asked, "This agreement is just a guarantee agreement, why can't it be signed? Or did you just lie to me?"
The person in charge opened his mouth, but no tough words came out.
"Mr. Liu, our two countries are neighbors, and we are both honest people. We can do this without signing an agreement."
Liu Hongmin said with a sneer: "Have you forgotten where the $100 million in compensation came from?"
The person in charge was speechless, and Jeff Kozuka also lowered his head.
Liu Hongmin said coldly: "You have no integrity. Now the evidence is here, but you are still making excuses. Then there is no need to conduct this mutual review of textbooks!"
After saying that, Liu Hongmin turned around, pushed his chair away, and strode out of the meeting room.
Mr. Huo also stood up and said, "You really have no sincerity at all. We are very disappointed about this."
The other members of Renjiao Society also stood up. Those who verified the evidence directly snatched the evidence from the Japanese scholar and put it back into the file bag. They quickly packed up their things, picked up the file bag, and walked out of the meeting room.
Xiaozuka Jeff was anxious and quickly said to the person in charge: "Sir, if the mutual review of textbooks fails, we will really become scapegoats."
The person in charge weighed the pros and cons quickly in his mind. If the mutual review of textbooks failed, he would not only face the local congressmen, but also the Americans. If he signed the guarantee agreement, at most the local congressmen would not recognize the agreement, his personal reputation would be ruined, he would no longer be sent abroad, and he would only be able to return to China to work in an idle official position, and his political career would be ruined.
After comparing the two options, he immediately made a choice.
He quickly chased out of the conference room, "Mr. Liu, please stay!"
Liu Hongmin ignored him and walked to the elevator. The person in charge ran up to him and said quickly, "Mr. Liu, I'll sign the agreement."
"It's too late!" Liu Hongmin said coldly, "You have completely lost your credibility with me."
The person in charge quickly said: "Please trust me again, I promise that the agreement will be implemented."
