Super Island Tycoon

"I hope in the days to come, Japan will be able to withstand this rapidly rising nation; otherwise, this little worm will eventually grow into a giant dragon, breaking free from its chains to suppress all of Asia!"

With deep worry in his eyes, Toukou Heijou prayed silently in his heart.

...

Jade Island.

Laputa City, South Moon Bay, "Vertical Forest" Skyscraper.

In the spacious and luxurious office, Jiang Cheng was quietly seated at his desk, squinting slightly, pondering over something.

"Island Master, these are messages from some recent business partners who have collaborated with us, inquiring whether our recent series of military actions will affect Jade Island's normal production and operations, so they can make appropriate responses."

In front of the desk, Monica, Jiang Cheng's personal secretary, was dressed in a formal black pencil skirt, her long legs wrapped in black silk.

At this moment, she was using her two white hands to organize the cluttered office files on the desk, speaking gently to Jiang Cheng.

This stand-off with Japan's military this time can be considered another scale, incomparable to previous conflicts with South Korea's fleet.

Perhaps based on this consideration, some international enterprises and companies in deep cooperation with Jade Island have called up Jiang Cheng to inquire about the potential outbreak of this conflict.

They are all businessmen driven by profit, so they are always very cautious when considering this matter.

However, from this, it can also be seen that they care deeply about every move Jiang Cheng makes.

Upon hearing Monica's words, Jiang Cheng slightly furrowed his brow, glanced casually at the documents on the desk, and spoke faintly: "Ignore them for now, these sophisticated selfish people always act obsequious when seeking cooperation with Jade Island, but now, seeing Jade Island's situation a little unfavorable, they can't sit still anymore, quite unreliable."

"Oh, by the way, Island Master, here are also some official letters from internationally renowned media, as well as international cooperative organizations like the World Bank, regarding this conflict. They hope the Island Master will consider the stable development of the global economy and avoid initiating conflict with Japan, to preserve Asia's and even the entire world's promising prospects."

Monica smiled helplessly, placing another pile of documents in front of Jiang Cheng.

Jade Island is already considered an essential engine for global economy and technology, making significant contributions to world development while also having to bear substantial responsibilities.

These international organizations must look up to Jade Island.

On the one hand, they are very grateful that Jade Island can drive global economic development, but at the same time, they are troubled by the frequent conflicts with neighboring countries by Jade Island recently.

No way, Jade Island supports the world's development and absolutely cannot fail, otherwise, these organizations in name may fail in their duties.

Regarding this, Jiang Cheng merely chuckled lightly, paying no attention.

These so-called international organizations are merely parasites residing under him, often acting superior but still adhering to the whims of the United States and other Western countries at critical moments.

At that time, what fairness can there be?

Regarding these external forces' interference actions, Jiang Cheng ignores them.

Having reached this point, he has no reason to abandon the conflict.

Furthermore, in Jiang Cheng's view, Jade Island still holds huge advantages.

On the one hand, whether economically or technologically, Jade Island stands as a global leader, possessing strong appeal that remains unaffected by external instability.

But Japan is different.

Everything in this country is inseparable from external conditions; if unsteadiness arises around it, it will inevitably suffer significant impacts internally, both economically and in stability.

On the other hand, Jade Island's military strength has made substantial progress, and its profound construction capabilities enable longevity in combat.

Thus, even if unable to match the opponent in quantity immediately, individual combat power and supply capabilities allow it to resist without falling behind.

Therefore, from any perspective, he needn't worry too much.

At this moment, the truly troubled party should be Japan.

Just this morning, he had received intelligence reports indicating that some decision-makers in Japan's military and government discussed the standoff multiple times, but results seemed less favorable than imagined.

Knowing this, Jiang Cheng relaxed.

He knew taking such a risk this time was the right bet.

Under the dual pressures internally and externally, Japan doesn't dare continue this standoff; Jade Island can't lose anything, but Japan absolutely can't bear it, even if domestic protests are overwhelming, these officials have to consider long-term national development.

Thus, if Jiang Cheng guessed correctly, Japan indeed will come looking for him shortly.

...

Jiang Cheng didn't need to speculate.

By the afternoon, he received a call from the Nanyao Island command center.

Japan approached Jade Island through the fleet to extend an invitation for peaceful communication.

Upon hearing this news, Jiang Cheng's lips slightly curled; everything seemed to progress as he had anticipated.

...

The stand-off event between Jade Island and Japan's warships lately became a widely discussed hot topic globally.

All netizens and media reporters closely followed online updates daily.

And that afternoon, attentive netizens frequently refreshing Jade Island's official website finally glimpsed an official statement from Jade Island!

"Jade Island will soon engage in peace negotiations with Japan!"

Although the statement contained only a few words, the implications were immense, quickly igniting the entire internet!

"Hehe, looks like they didn't end up fighting; just wondering if these talks will achieve anything," a keen netizen commented, quickly receiving extensive replies from other netizens.

"Ah! It's truly a bit disappointing. I've always been curious about how strong Jade Island's military actually is; defeating South Korea's fleet let the world witness Jade Island's might, but facing Japan, what will it be? Fear it won't be seen."

"Not necessarily; negotiations largely depend on whether both parties truly want to compromise, otherwise, it's merely a waste of time."

"Why do I feel it's Japan that's going to compromise?"

"Same feeling, when the stand-off was freshly amped, Japan talked big, but now so many days passed, and nothing happened, seems like bluffing."

Thus, heated online discussions about the peace negotiation erupt between the two parties swiftly.
