You need to understand that he was originally supposed to pay compensation. How much silver he took from China, and in the end, the Americans interfered, preventing Dongda from receiving compensation, and even the Diaoyu Islands and the Ryukyu Islands were not returned. Did he give you any benefits to loan for construction?

I just saw a video that mentioned Japan's proposal in 1978 for interest-free or low-interest loans to support the construction of Tokyo University. Japan began to fully assist us in various modernization efforts, providing 14 trillion yen in interest-free or low-interest loans to Tokyo University from 1978 to 1997, and by the end of 1997, there was basically no repayment! These loans helped Tokyo University build the Beijing Capital Airport Terminal 2, Shanghai Pudong Airport, Guangzhou Baiyun Airport, Wuhan Tianhe Airport, the Second Yangtze River Bridge in Wuhan, the Beijing-Qin Railway, the Nankun Railway, the electrification project of the Beijing-Guangzhou Railway, Qingdao Port, the expansion project of Qinhuangdao Port, equipment upgrades for Wuhan Steel and Baosteel Group, the Wuqiaoxi Power Plant, etc. In the 1980s, Japan also provided aid for the construction of the China-Japan Friendship Hospital, the China-Japan Friendship Environmental Center, the China Rehabilitation Research Center, the Beijing Postal and Telecommunications Training Center, and many other environmental, medical, and poverty alleviation projects! From 1978 to 2010, we received 263.8 billion RMB in preferential loans from Japan, with a total aid amount close to 300 billion, and these loans provided strong support for our country's economic development! Saying this is not to make everyone forget history, but to hope that we can look forward to the future! As neighboring countries with a shared waterway, only by uniting can East Asia have a better future, and we can find broader development space in the world!
