But now the product has a problem, and it's not in Japan, but in Europe and America, which has tarnished the reputation of Japanese industrial manufacturing.
In this way, he became a fraudster and criminal who deceived the world and stole fame, and he couldn't get rid of the blame even if he wanted to!
"It really is him! Go check it out! Go check it out in China! It wasn't just me who went to China to buy the patents back then, was it? I think the patents for all the other appliances that had problems were also bought from that kid. And like me, they were greedy and didn't sign any patent licensing agreements with that kid; they just took the patents for themselves..."
Nakamura Neiji's mind was in a mess, but amidst the chaos, he also grasped a spark of inspiration. He felt that Lin Huowang, the farmer from Northeast China, was definitely not unaware of what was happening.
Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence? The rice cooker had a problem, the electric fan had a problem, the microwave oven had a problem, and even the refrigerator could explode?
Just then, a black-and-white television set in the corner of the interrogation room was playing the evening news.
The news footage shifts to a Tokyo TV announcer speaking in a highly excited tone:
"...It is reported that the magical novel 'Harry Potter,' which has recently swept the globe and become wildly popular in Europe and America, was written by Tenno Kobayashi, the founder of the 'Dragon Jump' manga magazine. The 'Pokémon' anime is also a hit worldwide, and Japanese anime is poised to conquer the world."
Mr. Kobayashi Tenmoku is the pride of Japan, spreading Japanese manga culture to the world. He is also a once-in-a-century financial genius, single-handedly battling American capital in the silver futures war and defeating numerous British companies in Hong Kong, rapidly amassing assets worth tens of billions of dollars. He was hailed by Time magazine as Asia's most outstanding business prodigy, having single-handedly built a vast business empire…
The image on the screen shows a candid photo of Kobayashi Tenno.
It was a slightly blurry profile photo, taken by a reporter when Lam Fau-wong was attending a business reception on Hong Kong Island.
Although he was wearing sunglasses and a suit, and his hairstyle had changed, his overall silhouette and physique...
The moment Nakamura Neiji saw it, his eyes widened in shock.
He suddenly sprang up from his chair, seemingly drawing strength from nowhere, ignoring the handcuffs on his wrists, and pointed at the television, shouting wildly:
"It's him! It's him!"
His shout startled the officials in the interrogation room.
"He's not Kobayashi Tenno! How could he be Japanese? He's Chinese, he's the Chinese farmer Lin Huowang I just mentioned!"
"Aaaaah! Look! Look closely! He's that swindler! He cheated me out of my money with the garbage technology he sold me, changed his name in Hong Kong, and then came back to ruin me!"
"It's him! His name in China is Lin Huowang! In Hong Kong, he's called Xiaolin Tianwang! It must have been a setup by him! It was all a setup by him! We've all been fooled by him!"
Nakamura Neiji screamed frantically, knowing this was his only chance to defend himself. He was so agitated that he became dizzy and vomited, foaming at the mouth.
However, the officials in the interrogation room looked at him as if he were a madman, their eyes filled with disgust.
"Take him away."
An official from the Ministry of International Trade and Industry waved his hand impatiently and said, "He's completely out of his mind. To escape punishment, he dares to slander Kobayashi Tenno, a shining example of our island nation. He's a business tycoon in Hong Kong. This kind of person is hopeless. To say Kobayashi Tenno is just a farmer from Northeast China is ridiculous; even manga wouldn't dare make something like that..."
"No! Investigate him! Go ahead and investigate him! It really is him!"
Before being forcibly dragged away by two prison guards, Nakamura Neiji was still shouting desperately.
...
However, although Nakamura Yasuji's crazy biting behavior was regarded as madness, the Japanese government did not remain completely indifferent to it.
Because the other suspects gave similar accounts to Nakamura Neiji, and when they saw Kobayashi Tenno's photo, they all swore that it was this person who sold them the patent.
Moreover, Japan also received the news shortly afterward.
The "Dragon Brand" home appliances produced by the Shekou Industrial Park home appliance production base, a joint venture between Kobayashi Tenmoku's Land Group and mainland China, have rapidly replaced Japanese home appliances in international market share and sales volume in a very short period of time.
The rise of "Dragon Brand" was too rapid and strange. It was simply grabbing the market in an unreasonable way. Moreover, after Japanese experts bought Dragon Brand electrical appliances, they disassembled and analyzed them and found that many of the technologies were actually ahead of their time.
Furthermore, the leading edge of these technologies is quite peculiar; it is not the kind of hard-earned advancement in basic technology, but rather the achievement of certain leading functions and effects through some ingenious design.
This has led to the fact that even though China's industrial manufacturing capabilities are quite backward, it can still rely on these ingenious designs to achieve the same or even better results as Japanese electronics, despite being one or two generations behind in technology.
This technical approach and principle are clearly quite similar to the patented technology brought back by Nakamura Neiji and others.
So after nearly a month of investigation, the Japanese Ministry of International Trade and Industry, even if it was unwilling to believe it, had to admit that the recent collapse of Japanese electronics companies overseas was very likely a conspiracy against Japan's national destiny orchestrated by a Japanese-Chinese man named Kobayashi Tenmo, in collusion with the Chinese government.
