In 1976, an old Japanese man named Kaheita Okazaki revealed his deep relationship with *** at the *** memorial service, and he said unabashedly: "* is my brother. This sentence caused confusion, but the story is true. Kahei Okazaki sees *** as his mentor, brother, and even the goal of his life. In the ** year, Kaheita Okazaki came to China for the first time, when China was still in the darkness of the old society and the foreign powers invaded. Although he is Japanese, he is full of sympathy for this poor country.
A few years later, Kaheita Okazaki returned to China as a staff member of the Japanese Embassy in China. However, at this time, it was 1938, Japan was invading China, and Okazaki Kaheita, who was in an important position, was not at ease, because this was an era of militarism, and the voices of aggression in Japan were constantly being advocated, and even the children were **. However, Kaheita Okazaki is one of the few sober and kind people who is convinced that aggression is absolutely wrong. Witnessing the atrocities of the Japanese army, he strengthened his belief that Japan was committing crimes. His inner conscience prompted him to do his best to stop this.
Kahei Okazaki, who was in Shanghai, published anti-war articles under his real name and sent his own photos of the Japanese invasion of China** to the International News Agency. On many occasions, he openly expressed his stance of resolutely opposing Japan's aggression on diplomatic occasions. As a result, he soon lost his job at the embassy and was subjected to verbal abuse in Japan. Someone even sent threatening letters to Kaheita Okazaki's elderly parents. ** identified him as a rebellious ** element and demanded that Shanghai arrest him. After learning of this, Okazaki Kahei did not dare to stay in Shanghai, and hurriedly fled to Europe with his family for refuge. He was not exonerated until Japan surrendered in 1945.
He then returned to Japan with his family. However, to his disappointment, although the war was over, Japan still harbored hatred for China, and the cancer of militarism had not been eliminated. Kahei Okazaki deeply felt the sinking of Japan and felt a deep sense of guilt for China. Although he himself did not harm the Chinese, he firmly believed that during the war of aggression against China, every Japanese directly or indirectly committed unforgivable crimes. Therefore, he was determined to atone for his sins by his actions.
With his efforts in Europe, he became a wealthy businessman in Japan, and used his social influence to form a non-governmental exchange group between Japan and China, hoping to promote the normalization of Sino-Japanese relations. In 1962, China signed a memorandum of understanding with the ** delegation led by Kaheita Okazaki, which was a big step in the diplomatic relations between China and Japan, and was highly valued. Kahei Okazaki had long heard of the reputation of ***, and he had always admired the leading group of New China, because he knew that it was extremely difficult to achieve complete liberation and create a new society in China at that time, and only people with superior wisdom could do it.
Not only the leader of China, but also the person in charge, who has left many reputations internationally. When meeting with ***, Kahei Okazaki was too excited. He was surprised to find that the sleeve of the ** shirt was covered with a faded sleeve, which was to protect the cuffs of the shirt from being worn out. Kaheita Okazaki was very surprised and admired by ***'s frugality. In his opinion, a person at the top of the mountain, if he can still maintain his original intention and not indulge in enjoyment, it is really commendable. He sincerely believes that ** is a "good prime minister of the people" and his life mentor. When talking about the diplomatic relations between the two countries, Kahei Okazaki was at a loss.
He hoped that Sino-Japanese diplomatic relations could be normalized, but he did not dare to ask for tolerance among the Chinese people. He expressed his inner contradiction to ***: "Frankly, if we had been invaded in the first place, it would have been difficult for me to forgive. However, ** shook his head and said to Kaheita Okazaki: "The exchanges between China and Japan have been recorded in the history books for more than 2,000 years, and those unrecorded times may be even longer. It is only in the 70-odd years of modern times that Sino-Japanese relations have begun to deteriorate, and compared with the good relations of thousands of years, it is only a moment. We should look forward.
**'s words made Okazaki Kahei Taimao pause, and also made him see the hope of reconciliation between the two countries. **I also have a very good impression of Kaheita Okazaki.,Since then, they've met them many times and become good friends.,Kaheita Okazaki regards *** as a brother.。 A few years later, China and Japan finally resumed normal diplomatic relations. When Kaheita Okazaki saw *** again, he found that the prime minister's physical condition was worrying. Due to his busy work, the prime minister became ill from overwork and could not get a recuperation, and his health gradually deteriorated. However, when his own body was in trouble, ** was still most concerned about the country and the people.
After the last meeting, Kaheita Okazaki returned home and said to his son: "Ancient China admired Confucius as a sage, and if you want to choose a sage in modern times, I think *** is fully qualified for this role." Even, he is greater than those saints. Of all the people I have seen in my life, he is the greatest one. If I can learn one-tenth of the qualities before I die, I will be satisfied. * With his powerful personality, he infects everyone, and even after he is gone, his spirit still shines brightly, forever guiding future generations.
