On the highest floor of the Endless Building, in the central conference hall, crowds gathered and bustling.
Well-known media from all over the world have all gathered in the spacious hall. The talks between the two parties this time are undoubtedly a blockbuster for the entire Asia and even the international situation.
Before this important talk, both sides will hold a simple press conference to release the correct attitude of this talk to the world.
As the supreme leader of Emerald Island, Jiang Cheng solemnly appeared at the press conference.
"Major Jiang Cheng, how is Emerald Island going to show its true sincerity in this meeting with Japan?"
A media reporter from the BBC directly asked Jiang Cheng the question that is most concerned by the majority of netizens.
"First of all, I want to explain that the peace talks this time are based on the mutual trust of both parties. Of course, I can't guarantee whether substantial progress will be made, but there is one thing worth explaining. Emerald Isle has always been a place that advocates peace, and has been making unremitting efforts for it."
"Since the opening of Emerald Island to the outside world, nothing has been done that violates international laws. This time, Emerald Island has built its own island without any fault. Therefore, I hereby promise to all the people of Emerald Island that we We will never compromise with the Japanese side!"
Before the meeting, Jiang Cheng made the most solemn declaration to the world and Emerald Island through the lens of world-renowned media.
At the same time, at the press conference on the other side, Togo Heikuro, the commander-in-chief of the Japanese Southern Fleet who came to the peace talks, also accepted the media interview with a solemn face.
"General Togo, I don't know how much you expect from this meeting. In your opinion, is it possible to reach a consensus this time?" A reporter from the American ABC media first asked Heikuro Togo.
"Expecting this kind of thing is not something a soldier should consider. I only know that being able to come to Emerald Island and Laputa City means that the Japanese side has come with great sincerity. However, peace talks like this The matter ultimately depends on whether the two parties have equal sincerity, and we in Japan obviously have sufficient sincerity."
The serious expression on Togo Heikuro's face is very consistent with his military status, and his tone is very sincere on the surface, but there is still a hint of aggressiveness in his words.
"Then what do you think will happen if the two sides fail to reach a consensus this time? Is there a possibility of a merger?"
This ABC reporter doesn't seem to be afraid of big things, and the angle of the question is very tricky.
After hearing the reporter's words, Togo Heikuro was uncharacteristically silent for a moment, and then said: "Let's wait and see."
After finishing speaking, Togo Heikuro directly passed the reporter and walked into the door of the peace talks meeting room.
...
After the door of the meeting room was closed, it was completely guarded by the guards of Emerald Island, and no one was allowed to enter.
And all the media reporters could only wait outside the door with peace of mind.
The result of this meeting, no matter what the ending is, will undoubtedly be a blockbuster, so they cannot leave no matter what.
Time passed by every minute and every second, and every reporter guarding the door was guessing how the talks inside were going on.
However, judging from their respective statements, neither side seems to have any intention of making concessions, which makes it impossible for these media reporters to be sure whether the two sides will reach an agreement.

"This meeting between Emerald Island and Japan will undoubtedly be extremely difficult. This can be seen from the remarks made by the two parties before the meeting. One is the latest rising Asian rookie, and the other is an old Asian technology and military power. In such a confrontational situation, it is destined that neither side will make concessions easily, and at best, they may sacrifice some interests for each other, but I don't think that their side can make sacrifices so easily."
An old professor from the University of London expressed his opinion.
"Professor Bond is right. This meeting is undoubtedly a huge challenge. Especially in such a fierce confrontation, it must be difficult for one party to make sacrifices. However, I There is a rather unique point of view. On the surface, both sides are in an equal position, but from the international and domestic perspectives, Japan is seriously at a disadvantage. This situation also dooms them During the meeting, I don't have enough confidence, so I deduce that in this meeting, the always shrewd Lord Jiangdao will definitely not miss this opportunity to blackmail Heikuro Togo!"
Lawrence, the diplomat, expressed his judgment on the international situation in detail.
"You mean, in this meeting, the Japanese side will make concessions first?" The program host asked in surprise when he heard Lawrence's words and immediately realized something.
"That's right! Both at home and abroad have suffered very unfavorable situations, and facing such a strong opponent, the Japanese side must not dare to launch military operations without authorization. Otherwise, by then, it will not only be unable to divert domestic conflicts, but will instead Contradictions at home and abroad detonate at the same time, thus completely dragging down the entire country, such a huge political risk, even such a big country, cannot bear it."
