Under the global spotlight, the peace talks between Jade Island and Japan finally opened their doors after nearly a full day.
As the doors to the conference room swung open, the eyes of journalists and the lenses of caran from around the world were all aid at the scene inside.
Amidst a cacophony, Isle Master Jiang Cheng of Jade Island and the Japanese negotiation representative, General Toukou Heijou, each holding a docunt, erged from the doors.
However, their expressions were vastly different.
At this ti, Jiang Cheng wore a gentle spring-like smile, his confident expression seed to exude his unique personal charm, a charm he had showcased on global occasions multiple tis.
In contrast, the other side looked rather grim.
General Toukou Heijou, renowned as a Japanese war hero, looked like a defeated soldier, face full of despondency, eyes dulled, and expression stiff.
Such a stark contrast implied sothing even without having to ask, and both journalists and viewers watching the live broadcast had a vague sense of understanding.
The journalists paused slightly at the scene, but quickly gathered themselves and rushed over, encircling the two.
"Isle Master Jiang Cheng, can you tell us about the outco of these talks?"
A reporter from the United States' ABC was the first to direct the question to Jiang Cheng.
Clearly, this question was the focus of attention for netizens worldwide.
"I believe the outco of today's peace talks will have far-reaching impacts on the stability of the entire Asian situation in the future. Additionally, I would like to take this opportunity to thank General Toukou Heijou for his contribution to this peace."
Jiang Cheng responded to the ABC reporter with a faint smile.
On the other side, upon hearing these words, Toukou Heijou's face darkened even more.
Subsequent inquiries from the dia circled around the two, with a barrage of questions.
However, both Jiang Cheng and Toukou Heijou gave simple replies, refraining from revealing specific details, and solemnly announced to the world that both parties were willing to reach a peace agreent and declared the naval standoff officially over.
This outco was clearly unexpected by everyone, leaving both journalists puzzled and viewers of the broadcast confused.
They could only surmise that achieving a peaceful result was certain, though the specific concessions made by each side remained unclear.
Moreover, from their expressions, it seed Jade Island had secured a significant victory, with Japan likely making considerable concessions, albeit reluctantly.
Realizing they wouldn't elicit more details, the journalists understood that the grand talks had thus drawn to an end.
Of course, after announcing the conclusion, Jiang Cheng and Toukou Heijou publicly read out the results of the eting.
Firstly, the agreent consisted of three articles.
First, the standoff at sea was officially ended, with both Japan and Jade Island withdrawing their fleets to restore peace to the incident area.
Second, in the future, both parties would enhance communication on mariti boundary issues and prevent similar incidents.
Third, Japan acknowledged the sovereignty of the new island as belonging to Jade Island.
...
The explosion of the agreent results quickly circulated online, attracting significant attention from netizens.
"Haha! The result couldn't be clearer; Japan's obviously conceding."
"Wow, Japan acknowledged the sovereignty of the artificial island? That's definitely big news! Isle Master Jiang is powerful!"
"Wow, how much will Jade Island's territorial waters expand now!"
"The area might not expand much, but importantly, the strategic depth is greatly strengthened. Imagine, Jade Island is nearly 100 nautical miles from this artificial island. Although this area remains international waters, if Jade Island insists on intensifying patrols, few ships would dare navigate here. Hence, it's still within Jade Island's sphere of influence!"
"Exactly! Jade Island's strategy is brilliant! By creating an artificial island, they're extending their influence by nearly 100 nautical miles. This is undoubtedly a step towards the Pacific Ocean! Isle Master Jiang is impressive!"
"However, I'm curious about what tactics Isle Master Jiang used to make overbearing Japan concede. This ti, Japan's agreent to withdraw the fleet essentially acknowledges Jade Island's island creation plan, sacrificing not just a mariti area but nearly 100 nautical miles of strategic depth, severely impacting Japan's future threat ability towards Jade Island!"
"Agreed, Japan has truly suffered a defeat. The agreent seems to acknowledge the established fact of the new island's existence."
"You're mistaken! International law only restrains small countries; true powers aren't bound by such constraints. This situation exemplifies it—a clash between the strength of Jade Island and Japan. Japan's significant concession in talks implies a slight inferiority in strength or a reluctance to confront Jade Island head-on, making this outco unsurprising."
"Very insightful! Japan boasts grand ambitions, projecting power into the Pacific, seeking to rival the United States. Though Japan could pit its full strength against Jade Island, the consequences would be dire, possibly losing its capability to vie for Pacific dominance. Under such pressing circumstances, Japan dared not risk it, especially with global opinion largely supporting Jade Island, prompting foreseeable concessions."
In this manner, netizens worldwide were voicing their opinions online.
Though laypeople might not grasp the intricacies, they sensed a pattern.
Naly, Jade Island's overall strength had beco impossible for Japan to ignore, even daunting, forcing Japan into a necessary compromise due to their larger ambitions.
