Eight o'clock in the morning on the 18th in Hong Kong is 8 o'clock in the evening on the 17th in New York, USA, and 0000 in the morning on the 18th in London, British Summer Time.
The Six Gentlemen of Renxu had already caused a sensation in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. As a result, the news spread overnight and spread to the Chinese community around the world. American students on the other side of the ocean also knew about it and expressed support for the six arrested people.
The news was broadcast on TVB on the evening of the 17th, and in the morning of the 18th, newspapers across Hong Kong reported this matter on their front pages.
This was not promoted by Changan International's funds. When the news arrived, the Hong Kong media took the initiative to report it. These days, the intellectuals in Hong Kong are still very ethical, unlike later generations.
At the same time, some media in Japan and South Korea also reported the news.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, a small number of local media in the UK also published this news, as did other European countries.
At eight o'clock in the evening in Hong Kong, some American media also started reporting.
The headlines in major media are nothing more than "Six Gentlemen of Renxu", "Six Chinese students landed on the island and were detained by Japanese police", "I can't breathe", etc.
The media outside Hong Kong are promoted by Changan International's funds. After all, foreigners are all money-loving owners. Without profit promotion, how can they do things that have nothing to do with themselves?
The global public opinion is not very big, but it also puts a lot of pressure on the Ryukyu authorities.
When they were hesitating whether to let him go, an accident happened.
On the morning of the 19th, before Lin Xiaoguang woke up, he was awakened by a harsh phone ring. After putting on his clothes, he picked up the phone and heard Ji Yun's voice.
"Xiaguang, it's not good. Zhao Hanqing died. It's like this. At four o'clock in the morning, she had difficulty breathing. Then because of delays, she had no heartbeat when she was sent to Ryukyu Prefectural Seiwa Hospital. The time of death was five o'clock in the morning. According to the doctor
Said she had congenital heart disease..."
He was stunned, and there was a buzz in his head. He didn't hear what Ji Yun said at all, he only heard that she was dead...
"Why is this happening?"
According to the plan, the Ryukyu authorities could not withstand the pressure of public opinion and would only release the person in a day or two, but now someone is dead?
"Xiaoguang, don't worry. The person in charge contacted Han Qing's classmates and found out that she went to the island with the intention of dying. Firstly, she wanted to use her death to wake up other Chinese people. Secondly, she wanted to die.
, her family is relatively poor, and she has younger brothers and sisters. Even if she relies on scholarships and grants, she still can't afford tuition and medical expenses, so she wants to get rid of it completely."
"Her death was not only out of public motives, but also selfish. You don't have to blame yourself too much." Ji Yun advised.
Lin Xiaoguang frowned and let out a long sigh.
"Since ancient times, no one has died, and his loyal heart will be remembered by history. Since ancient times, China has never lacked patriots."
Ji Jun continued: "According to her plan, her death will inevitably cause a greater sensation in public opinion. It will be a good thing for Diaoyu Island, as long as more Chinese people can be awakened."
"Personally, I am deeply sorry for her death, but rationally speaking, it is also good for our plan."
"You don't need to say anything..." Lin Xiaoguang didn't let her say any more.
It goes without saying that public opinion is expected to explode soon. The death of Zhao Hanqing will awaken the patriotism of the Chinese and at the same time make the neutrals feel sympathy. In contrast, the Ryukyu authorities and police are completely on the opposite side this time.
Will be despised by everyone.
When students from other countries die in police custody in a controversial location, the police cannot absolve themselves of the blame, regardless of whether they were ill or not.
After all, he died in custody.
Moreover, they are still staying illegally because the Ryukyu authorities have not issued any legal documents against Chinese landing on the island. This area is still in a blank area. With this in mind, public opinion is enough to crush them.
"Well, you tell Jiang Shanshan to change the name of the Qinhuai Education Fund under the Qinhuai Group to the Zhao Hanqing Foundation. It will be expanded from the previous education fund to a medical fund, including but not limited to Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, mainland, and the world.
All poor Chinese students who meet the conditions can apply..."
"Okay, I know."
"From now on, we will do our best to promote public opinion. I will give you a budget of 10 million Hong Kong dollars and try our best to make the biggest noise. What we can do now is to fulfill her last wish."
10 million Hong Kong dollars, it’s more, it’s more, it’s not more, it’s not much.
But Lin Xiaoguang thinks it's worth it.
If these 10 million Hong Kong dollars are spent, the name Zhao Hanqing will be resounding in all cities in the Chinese community.
Ji Yun felt that he was in a heavy mood now and was a little willful in doing things. He wanted to persuade him, but finally nodded: "Okay, I will send someone to do it right away."
"In addition, after the incident is over, I will donate some money to her family so that her younger siblings can attend Guangdong Middle School for free."
"I know, I will also tell Jiang Shanshan."
The call was hung up.
Lin Xiaoguang was wearing pajamas and looking at the phone in a daze.
Although it was still dark, he did not feel sleepy at all. What should he say about this matter? From the beginning, he knew that there would be no result in protecting the Diaoyu Islands. After all, no matter how powerful the spontaneous actions of the people of Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan were, this kind of sovereignty involving island disputes
The problem cannot be solved by the people. We can only rely on public opinion to push the government to deal with it.
But how can the government deal with it? To put it bluntly, this kind of sovereignty issue depends on who has a big fist and whose supporters are strong.
Behind Tokyo is Washington.
Who supports Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, as well as Chinese students studying abroad around the world?
No.
The Diaoyu Islands issue was not resolved until later generations. However, with the growth of the mainland's national and military power, cruises around the islands were made from time to time. Under the tug-of-war, a co-management situation was formed with Tokyo. No one could do anything about the other. But in fact, compared with the past,
China has come back from a situation in which Tokyo was in sole control.
There is a theory in later generations that the movement to protect the Diaoyu Islands is a conspiracy.
Whenever preparations for the China-Japan-Korea Free Trade Zone are in full swing, Diaoyu Islands defenders from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan come out to carry out activities, and then cause the Free Trade Zone to abort. In Lin Xiaoguang's view, this is a complete joke.
Without the campaign to protect the Diaoyu Islands, would the free trade zone have been successfully established?
That's not necessarily the case.
In his opinion, as long as the US military is still stationed in South Korea and Japan, the free trade zone can only fail. Why, because all transactions in the free trade zone are not settled in US dollars. For this reason alone, it is impossible for the Americans to let them do whatever they want.
Therefore, the movement to protect the Diaoyu Islands really does not have that much energy to destroy the free trade zone plan single-handedly.
So far, protecting the Diaoyu Islands seems to be useless, but Lin Xiaoguang is opposed to it.
Limited by the current international situation, the two sides of the Taiwan Straits and the three places cannot be unified politically or militarily. In this case, in order to strengthen ties and maintain emotional ties, since we cannot belong to political China, we must
Under the Chinese nation, this is no problem.
And defending the Diaoyu Islands can arouse strong resonance in the three places across the Taiwan Strait.
With a common enemy, some problems can be shelved.
Anyang came back to sleep after not seeing him for a long time. He came over in his pajamas and saw that he was in a daze. He stretched out his hand, hugged his waist, buried his head behind his back, felt the man's thick back, and asked softly: "Is something wrong?"
Lin Xiaoguang turned around, held her in his arms with his backhand, and looked at her tenderly: "There is something wrong, but don't worry, it's still under control."
