The next day, Wu Shaoting came to the Guangzhou Provincial Government Hall. The street outside had been waiting for many invited reporters...

Previously, due to the closed nature of the Four-Country Summit, many reporters only heard about the meeting but did not know the content of the meeting. This time, the head of the Republic of China attended the press conference in person, and there was no need to guess that it was definitely a summary notice to the Four-Country Summit. No matter what the content of the meeting was, it was already a big news that Wu Shaoting organized the press conference so seriously.[]

After the press conference began, a confidential clerk from the Guangdong Provincial Government gave a brief opening introduction, and then a specialist revealed part of the content of the four-country summit. The part about the establishment of a trade community and a military community was mentioned more or less, but they were only official introductions.

"The four-country trading community is not only limited to the current four member states. In the future development, we will actively absorb more small and medium-sized Asian countries to participate."

"The highest ideal of the Asian Trade Center is to establish a continuous, closer, united foundation among the peoples of Asian countries, clear out the barriers that divide Asia, ensure the economic and social progress of Asian countries, continuously improve the conditions for people's lives and employment, and promote the exchange of international resource markets through common trade policies."

"The Community Program will not target any other non-Asian countries. Our original intention is simply to unite all countries in Asia, whether poor or backward, to gather more strength to achieve the goal of common and rapid development."

"As for the military community, it is definitely not to exclude Western civilization. It's just that since modern times, our Asia has been invaded and oppressed by powerful countries. If a weak country wants to ensure sovereignty, it must get together and unite closely."

"This military cooperation is only applicable to strategic defense. If any hegemonic force attempts to invade, our community will definitely fight back with all its might."

"The purpose of the four-way community is to work together by member states in collective defense and maintaining regional peace and security to promote stability and welfare in Asia and its eastern Pacific region."

After the highlight introduction, some eager reporters immediately began to rush to ask questions.

The press conference site seemed very warm for a while, and the Guangdong Provincial Government Association had to temporarily change the procedures of the press conference and ask reporters in advance. This would save the head of state from the time of the speech.

It has to be said that the Four-Country Community Plan is indeed a bombshell. Many sensitive people realize that this will be a major trend in the development of Asia and a new alliance. Some experts with advanced thinking even vaguely feel that this is a changing military and political system expansion.

Of course, even though most of them know that there are many secrets hidden behind the scenes of the Community Plan, not everyone can guess accurately. In their opinion, what they are most concerned about at the moment is the future development scale of the Community Plan. Will more member states join? Is it related to the current world war and whether it will lay the groundwork for the next world war?

"The Quadrilateral Community will never interfere in the European war. It will be a regional defense organization and trade development organization with no intersection with the Allies and the Allies."

"The Republic of China is the initiator of this series of plans. Although our country currently belongs to the camp of allies, as mentioned just now, the Community Plan has nothing to do with the European War, and there will never be any conflict."

"China's war in South Asia will continue. This is our China's business and has nothing to do with the community plan. Of course, it is undeniable that China will continue to implement an anti-colonial and anti-aggressive position. In the South Asian War, it will help more countries that have been hurt by colonial invasions and do their best to assist them in the restoration of their full national sovereignty and**."

"The common plan will never force any country to join or withdraw from the member state. If countries that have been restored with the help of our China will be willing to join the Community Plan, we will warmly welcome it. But everything will be followed by the procedures of the Community Plan, including review and final voting."

Chinese officials answered the questions raised by basic reporters positively, and even some extremely sensitive and suggestive questions were never avoided.

After all, the Community Plan has just been established, and it must show a benign image of integrity and justice. Only in this way can we lay the foundation for reputation in Asia and it will be easier to attract new member states to join in the future.

At the end of the press conference, Wu Shaoting finally arrived at the venue under the attention of everyone.

However, the relevant contents that were introduced before have been introduced. His only purpose of appearing at this time is to fuel the community plan and make this plan appear more determined, more courageous and more formal.

He briefly said to the reporters present, most of the content was high-sounding, such as emphasizing that China initiated the community plan to promote the comprehensive development of Asia, eliminate disputes between countries, and resolve some soft contradictions through trade.

He also took this opportunity to explain some explanations to the South Asian War: "The war itself is a disaster, but the purpose of the war is to uphold justice. On the one hand, our Republic of China is threatened by the Allies first, and on the other hand, our Republic of China also has the responsibility to help Asian states complete the great cause of anti-colonial and anti-aggression."

Although the content of the speech was flashy and unreal, it still became a paragraph that journalists focused on recording.

In fact, Wu Shaoting has revealed the status of the Asian hegemon of the Republic of China from these words, and he also hopes to pass on this press conference to convey this information. Of course, China must not pick too clearly, the international diplomacy is unpredictable, and it must not increase the risk of falling into the target of public criticism.

The meeting ended, and Wu Shaoting led all the staff to leave calmly.

Starting from today, China will not only be busy with the South Asian War, but also spend some energy on dealing with the aftermath of the Sino-Japanese War and operating a community plan. Although North Korea, Vietnam, and Ryukyu Kingdom already have sovereignty from a diplomatic perspective, these countries still need more intervention and assistance from China to help form a national political system and restore people's livelihood.

A few days later, Wu Shaoting held another meeting in Guangzhou, inviting the participants to be officials participating in the Community Plan, including naturally representatives of Vietnam, North Korea and Ryukyu Kingdom. At this meeting, he made a solemn explanation that the Community Plan and the post-war reconstruction strategy of various countries will be carried out at the same time, and more intersections will be created for the two things as much as possible. This will not only improve work efficiency, but also save more resources.

Most of the subsequent meetings were related to the establishment of the Asian Trade Center and the Joint SGCC. However, this meeting was only a theoretical and policy planning. The specific establishment work would have to be held after leading countries to select formal officials before holding another detailed meeting.

The detailed meeting is expected to last for one to two months. After all, all the rules within the community system must be reset, so a lot of manpower must be used to discuss one by one. However, whenever a part of the content is finalized, this part of the content will be immediately started to be implemented, and all the community plan will be completed in the shortest time.

At this meeting, representatives of the four countries also established the establishment of the Bank of Borders without Borders, jointly funded by the Republic of China, the Kingdom Bank of Korea, the Imperial Central Bank of Vietnam and the National Bank of Ryukyu. However, in fact, the Kingdom Bank of Ryukyu had not yet been born yet and was only in a state of planning and preparation. The National Bank of Ryukyu is a private bank in Naha, and is expected to serve as the Central Bank of Ryukyu after the restoration of Ryukyu.

As for the Central Bank of Vietnam, although it was just launched two months ago, its overall scale is not as large as that of Zhang Shengting Commercial Bank of Renhua Port. Currently, the Vietnamese currency issued on the gold standard is only 285 million imperial currency in the country, and is called the Vietnamese dollar abroad. Sixty percent of it is used to exchange for private gold, silver and old coins, leaving less than 60 million in funding reserves. Therefore, there is not much money that can be invested in Bank of Borders.

The largest shareholder of Bank of Borders is still the Republic of China Bank of China, which invested a total of 120 million Republican coins, accounting for 68% of the bank's shares. The Kingdom of Korea directly invested in equivalent silver, totaling 60 million Republican coins. Because the bank's scale was too small, the bank invested 5 million Republican coins, and also borrowed 15 million from Hailian Bank to invest in it.

The Central Bank of Vietnam Imperiality has the same method as Ryukyu. The bank invested 10 million republic coins and also borrowed 10 million republic coins from Guangdong United Bank. At the same time, it also exchanged 10 million republic coins with a sum of gold and silver.

The total capital of Bank of Borders is 230 million Republican coins, and it is planned to prepare all funds within two months and officially put into operation on October 10, 1916. The bank's standard name is "Asian International Bank", and the bank's headquarters is set up in Hai. After the skyscraper of the "Asian Trade Center" is completed, the headquarters office address will be moved into the building. It is also expected that branches will be opened in Hong Kong, Hanoi, Hue, In-Ha, Pyongyang, Seoul, Naha and other places by the end of the year.

Using this financing from Asian International Bank, Wu Shaoting successfully promoted Chinese currency to the Asian international market. Not only that, this is also one of the purposes of the trade community. He wants to transition all member states in the community plan to Sinicization, build the republic currency into the most stable and reliable currency, develop Chinese into the only mainstream language in Asia, and implant the influence of Chinese culture into all Asian countries.
