Soon, those Japanese who knew English were brought here.
Sato distributed the copied script to everyone and asked them to familiarize themselves with the audition here.
I don’t know if it’s due to racial talent, but these people perfectly interpret the shyness of their wives and the vulgarity of Old John.
In particular, Ikuko Toguri is lifelike, with three parts sweetness and two parts shyness, plus a little bit of desire to refuse but to welcome, she vividly interprets a newlywed wife.
"That's her."
Wei Wu made the decision on the spot.
As expected of the woman who made countless American soldiers vow to break into Tokyo, snatch her back and get married, she does have two tricks up her sleeve.
The only pity is that the age is not suitable.
If I stay at night for a while, wait for tape recorders and televisions to develop, and package it properly, I may not be able to become a first-line female star.
Under the command of Wei Wu, the Psychological Warfare Center against the United States was formally established, and the recording of the first program was officially started.
And Ikuko Toguri also became the first batch of anchors on duty.
According to Wei Wu's request, the anchor on duty rotates every three hours and broadcasts 24 hours a day to ensure that the American soldiers can hear the broadcast no matter when and where they are.
Of course, the military will have to bear the overtime pay.
He handed the bill to Sato and asked Sato to polish it up and find an opportunity to ask the military department for reimbursement.
After finishing these trivial matters, Wei Wu was about to take a good rest when a messenger came in.
"Division Commander, there is a call from the base camp saying that an important prisoner of war is being sent over. Please find a place to keep him under strict supervision."
"Um?"
Wei Wu sat up directly.
"What kind of prisoner of war? You actually want to inform me personally to send him here? And you have to keep him under strict supervision?"
Wei Wu was filled with doubts.
In his impression, Japan treated prisoners of war almost like slaves.
All officers and soldiers work.
It seems like no one is being treated specially.
What kind of prisoner of war could specifically inform him of this division commander?
"It seems the name is Jonathan Wainwright."
The messenger glanced at the telegram and said.
"It turned out to be him."
Wei Wu understood.
This Jonathan is the commander-in-chief of the United States in the Philippines, and he runs and carries thunder for Mai.
After the defenders ran out of ammunition and food, they led more than 70,000 coalition troops to surrender.
This man was originally supposed to be imprisoned in a prisoner-of-war camp of the Kwantung Army.
As a result, in this time and space, the Kwantung Army was defeated by Wei Wu.
In order to prevent Jonathan from inciting soldiers to rebel, the base camp hesitated and sent Jonathan to Wei Wu.
In their opinion, Wei Wu's place is considered the rear area for now, and it is enough to imprison such a person.
He sent the person over directly.
If they were ordinary prisoners of war, Wei Wu might not care too much.
At most, let people take care of you.
But Jonathan is different.
Although he himself was defeated and surrendered, after the war, he was regarded as a hero by the United States.
He gave a lot of care, and when Japan surrendered, Jonathan was specially given a place to watch the ceremony.
This shows its popularity in the United States.
If you can make friends with such a person, it will leave you a way out.
"Where are the people?"
Wei Wu asked quickly.
"On the transport ship, it's about to dock."
The messenger said.
"Immediately send a motorcade to meet him and send him to my office. I want to see him in person."
"yes."
The messenger left immediately.
A few hours later, a thin officer was sent into Wei Wu's office.
"General Jonathan, please take a seat."
Wei Wu stretched out his hand and pointed to a position opposite the tea sea.
The guard immediately led Jonathan to his seat.
"Try it, Longjing before the rain. It's rare. I only have this little in my hand."
Wei Wu poured a cup of tea for each of them.
Jonathan was confused by Wei Wu's actions.
You know, after being captured, he saw with his own eyes the Japanese attitude towards prisoners of war.
Because of their belief in Bushido, the Japanese regard death in battle as the highest honor, and are very hostile to the American army that surrenders on its own initiative.
There are many radical ones who will even take the initiative to beat them.
During the Bataan Death March, Jonathan witnessed many prisoners of war being beaten to death by the Japanese army.
Even if you don't take the initiative to take action, I'm afraid it won't be a good look.
No one has ever taken the initiative to pour a glass of water like Wei Wu.
This flattered Jonathan a little.
"Excuse me, do you have anything to do with me?"
Jonathan asked cautiously.
Life in a prisoner of war camp dampened his edge and pride, making him cautious.
"Nothing, I want to make a deal with General Jonathan."
Wei Wu said with a smile.
"What deal?"
Jonathan asked.
"My position is not low. I am a lieutenant general and the commander of the powerful division. I am responsible for the logistics of the entire westward marching corps. I also control part of the political propaganda work. It is not an exaggeration to say that my position is high and powerful."
"I can use my position to provide as much information as you need. You can pass this information back to Marshal Mai or Nimitz. I believe it will definitely be helpful to you."
"puff--"
Jonathan almost spit out his tea.
He never expected that Wei Wu would actually provide him with information.
You know, he is a prisoner now, and Wei Wu is a high-ranking lieutenant general.
Moreover, Japan had just won the battlefield in Southeast Asia.
Even he was captured.
It is no exaggeration to say that Japan is at its peak now.
Now Wei Wu actually wanted to betray Japan's intelligence, which he really couldn't figure out.
"what do you want to do?"
Jonathan pondered for a moment and asked proactively.
"Compared with the United States, Japan is far inferior in terms of national strength and war potential. Once a war breaks out, even if Japan can gain a certain advantage through sneak attacks, it will inevitably fail when the United States' industrial strength is put into operation."
Wei Wu said with a smile.
"When you capture Japan, you will definitely need a local to assist in management, and I am the most suitable one."
Wei Wu had already thought of a way out for himself.
After the war, his status as lieutenant general inevitably led to a court-martial.
If it's not taken care of well, I'm afraid it could really lead to a hanging or something.
Therefore, the best way is to leave yourself more escape routes.
Jonathan will have a high reputation in the future. If you establish a good relationship with him now, a word from him in the future will be of great benefit to you.
If you can use him, you can become the agent of the United States in Japan and help manage Japan.
That would be more stable.
As long as he obtains this position, he is confident that he can hollow out Japan and turn it all into his own private property.
Those who were disobedient were all sold to Siberia to dig potatoes.
Jonathan was shocked when he heard Wei Wu's words.
He instinctively felt that Wei Wusuotu was very big.
However, if Wei Wu could really do what he said, he would indeed be of great help to the Allies.
For a moment, Jonathan didn't know what to do.
Seeing Jonathan's appearance, Wei Wu laughed: "It seems that General Jonathan is still a little hesitant. How about this, I will give you a piece of information first, and you will pass it to the country first, so that the country can confirm it. How about we cooperate?"
"What information?" Jonathan asked.
He didn't want to give up this opportunity either.
"Anchorage of the Combined Fleet."
Wei Wu said with a smile.
