Chapter 230: Another $ million Liu Hongmin said coldly: "Why should I believe you?" The person in charge knew that this time they would have to spend a lot of money again. However, compared with revising the textbooks, spending a little money was nothing. After all, the local financial industry was developing rapidly, and even if Liu Hongmin asked for a high price, the local government could afford it. "Please give us another chance and we can pay the deposit. If we fail to fulfill the agreement, you can just withhold the deposit." Liu Hongmin raised his eyebrows. This kid is quite sensible! The mutual review of textbooks is a confrontation between the two countries or even the two poles, and it is something that must be done. Therefore, Liu Hongmin does not care whether the Japanese revise the textbooks or not. The Japanese revise their textbooks frequently. If they revise them today, they may revise them back tomorrow. Liu Hongmin does not have time to keep an eye on the Japanese textbooks. It is too time-consuming and labor-intensive. In this age when the Internet is not well developed, information spreads too slowly. If the Japanese did not report it in a big way and secretly changed the textbooks, it would take at least several months or even years for China to know the news. Instead of wasting time, it is better to get some benefits from the Japanese! Liu Hongmin reached out his hand, and Chen Yu took out another contract from his briefcase. Liu Hongmin handed the contract to the person in charge, "If you sign this, then I will trust you." The person in charge signed the contract and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He had played so many tricks, but in the end he still fell into Liu Hongmin's trap. This new contract required the Japanese to pay a deposit of $100 million. If the Japanese did not completely revise the textbooks, the $100 million deposit would be deducted.
The person in charge said happily: "Mr. Liu, let's go back to the conference room first! I will sign this guarantee contract!" Life is like that. Since you can't resist it, just choose to accept it. Thinking of this, the person in charge felt relieved of all psychological burden. The two parties returned to the conference room and after they sat down again, the person in charge happily signed the guarantee contract. "Mr. Liu, I will have the local deposit be transferred to the designated account as soon as possible." Liu Hongmin took the contract and handed it to Mr. Huo. "In this case, I hope you can revise the textbooks as soon as possible and teach students the correct history, and stop making false claims." "sure!" The person in charge did not make any excuses. He was now thinking about how to trick the locals into sending the money. The 100 million dollars was destined to be unrecoverable. If he wanted those congressmen to agree willingly, he would probably have to waste some time talking. He has been convinced by Liu Hongmin and would rather debate with a large group of congressmen than confront Liu Hongmin. "Mr. Huo, now that the matter here has been resolved, I will go back first." Mr. Huo sent Liu Hongmin to the door of the conference room. "Hongmin! Wait for my news. As long as the Japanese send the money, you can rest at home. Your son has been born for so long, you haven't been able to spend time with him!" “Everything is for the country and the nation.” Mr. Huo could not help but stand in awe, "Everything is for the people!" The two men held hands and looked at each other firmly. At the Japanese office in Beijing, Jeff Kozuka looked at the person in charge worriedly, "Sir, can we convince the locals?" The person in charge nodded. "Of course, this is the best we can do. As long as they put all the responsibility on me, they can easily get us out of it. However, the 100 million US dollars must be paid, otherwise Liu Hongmin will not let it go." Jeff Kozuka felt a deep sense of powerlessness. "What kind of monster is this? He actually defeated an entire country all by himself." The person in charge smiled and said, "Liu Hongmin is not a god, he is just a wandering blind man at the negotiation table. He did not want to promote the mutual review of textbooks, so he was inherently invincible. But we have too many constraints, which can be described as throwing a rat into a rat. Therefore, we let Liu Hongmin lead us by the nose in every aspect." Jeff Kozuka also knew that what the person in charge said was right, but facing Liu Hongmin's deep sense of powerlessness, he was full of fear of Liu Hongmin.
After contacting the local government, the person in charge explained his ideas to the congressmen. Although the congressmen were dissatisfied, they could not blame a person who had abandoned his political career. It was only $100 million, which was just a drop in the bucket for the Japanese. Soon, the congressmen reached a consensus, and the next day, the Japanese deposited the money into the designated account. With the deposit in hand, Liu Hongmin's work was done. The rest was just a matter of playing cozy with the Japanese, and Renjiaoshe could handle it on its own. In the following days, the negotiations went very smoothly, and the two sides even agreed to continue the cooperation on mutual review of textbooks. The Japanese had a good idea. They had already paid a deposit of $100 million. So even if they didn't change the textbooks, it wouldn't matter. After all, they had spent money. In this way, for many years to come, they only needed to unilaterally review China's textbooks. However, they took it for granted. Liu Hongmin had tampered with the guarantee contract, requiring the Japanese to pay a $100 million deposit for each mutual review of textbooks. When the textbook mutual review was held again next year, Renjiao Publishing House took out the guarantee agreement, and the Japanese had to hold their noses and pay another $100 million in deposit. This lasted until the end of the textbook mutual review cooperation, and the Japanese spent more than $1 billion in deposits. These deposits were eventually used for our education. New primary schools were built in those poor areas. Many children who could not go to school completed their nine-year compulsory education with this money. A large number of them went to high school or even university with the scholarship for poor students. Their destiny has changed, and they have changed the destiny of more people, saving precious time for our country's poverty alleviation work and completing the poverty alleviation work five years ahead of schedule. Liu Hongmin had some free time and started to spend time with his wife and children. A few days after their son's full moon banquet, the Li family returned to Hong Kong. Li Lizhen also gradually integrated into the Liu family. Although it sounds a bit unpleasant, Li Lizhen is indeed a mother with a son. With Liu Hongmin taking care of the child, Li Lizhen devoted more time to recovery and exercise. After all, she is just an adult, and in the future, she is still just a little girl at this age, and she is at the age of loving beauty. However, the peaceful life was soon broken. Richard called from the US, "Mr. Liu, your friend has been arrested." Liu Hongmin was stunned for a moment, "My friend?" How come he didn't know that he actually had friends in the United States, "Richard, what's going on?" Richard said, "It's a man named Wang Qingyang. He used to be your college roommate."
