Eight months have passed since Japan's nuclear sewage was discharged into the sea, and Japan's seafood exports have become a big problem, and China and the United States have closed their doors to Japan.
Japan has come up with an "ingenious" way to sell risky seafood directly to the United States, but we in China cannot watch the fire from across the strait, and we must make certain preparations.
How does Japan use to sell nuclear seafood to the United States? How should the mainland avoid buying nuclear seafood?

Japan's biggest victim of nuclear sewage discharge into the sea
If you ask who is the biggest victim of Japan's nuclear sewage discharged into the sea, it must be the creatures in the sea and the fishermen who live on seafood.
After learning that Japan had discharged nuclear sewage into the ocean, the mainland directly and completely cut off the way to import seafood from Japan, and many countries did the same, which also surprised many Japanese experts.
As an island country, Japan makes a lot of money by exporting seafood every year, and for Japan, China is an excellent market resource, and we import a lot of seafood to Japan every year, and the mainland will import nearly 100,000 tons of scallops alone in 2022.
And now our country will strictly control the import and export, and never allow any risk to enter the country, so the Japanese fishermen are numb, tons and tons of seafood are piled up in the warehouse and there is no place to sell, and there is no way to deal with the backlog of goods, and some merchants can only choose to discard or distribute them for free.
The Japanese officials are also very anxious, after all, they never expected China's attitude to be so resolute, saying that if they don't import, they won't import, so they turned their eyes to the United States for help, after all, he didn't dare to discharge nuclear sewage without the support of the United States, and now he will definitely find someone to take the blame for the problem.
The Japanese meaning is probably this: Big brother, look, I have done what you asked, but now that something is wrong, you have to help me wipe my ass. The United States, as the big brother of Japan, naturally couldn't watch the little brother lose all his money, so he "waved his hand" and directly bought a ton of scallops.
It can only be said that it is very ridiculous, this move of the United States is to completely tell Japan that it should deal with its own mess, a ton of scallops is worth a few dollars, and it will not solve Japan's current problems at all, and there are still a large number of seafood products piled up in the homes of Japanese fishermen.
You can't blame me for being ruthless, so many fishermen in Japan are waiting to eat, and the behavior of only buying one ton is really chilling, so Japan has thought of a way to let the fishermen sell all the goods, and let their "big brother" buy it willingly.
Backstabbing the United States is playing spy within a spy
In order to sell its own seafood, Japan tried its best to "trap" its own people, so that the Japanese people could solve the problem of seafood internally, but the people were not stupid, and the Japanese knew the harm of nuclear weapons best, and it was impossible to make the people pay.
Besides, there are only a few people in Japan, a small island country, and even if they are open to eating every day and night, it is not easy to eat the accumulated seafood, and in this situation Japan can only help the United States, and the United States has this attitude, and Japan has indeed been more than good for a long time.
The Japanese are not stupid, the Americans are not stupid, who will have nothing to do to eat nuclear-contaminated seafood, some Japanese restaurants in the United States have also been affected, in fact, in order to make Japan logically "pit" China, the United States has also pretended to be a bit before, what specifically went to Fukushima to eat seafood, what accused the mainland of being unfriendly, and so on, the result is just a clown's showmanship.
So maybe Japan also thinks that China's mouth can't be pried open, so it pries the mouth of the United States open, so Japan found Mexico, and the two countries started a seafood partnership, Japan first exported seafood to Mexico, and then Mexico processed it and labeled Mexico, so that it was not a Japanese product.
Of course, Mexico also understands the stakes, anyway, it is to come to us to go through the motions, as long as the goods are not circulated to their own country, I get a label and sell it directly to the United States, anyway, you don't know where the seafood comes from, I make money and you eat it, why not do it.
It's also to help build a factory and help to sell, for Mexico, this must be a safe and profitable deal, I said that it was fished from the Caribbean sea next to it, what can you do with me?
In other words, Japan has put a lot of effort into making Americans eat their own hot scallops, but correspondingly, we in China must also be fully prepared, because no one knows whether the United States will change the packaging and sell it to China.
The heart of defense is indispensable
Although the mainland no longer imports seafood from Japan, the demand for seafood from the people on the mainland is still very large, and if the United States really follows Japan's example and transfers the goods to another country to change the packaging and then sells them, we will suffer in the end, and we must be prepared for defense.
You must know that Japan has discharged nuclear sewage four times, the oceans around Japan have been seriously polluted, marine life has been killed in a large area, and the heat of nuclear sewage is declining every day.
The Japanese side has the cheekiness to discharge sewage and replace risky seafood with other packaging for sale, which is fundamentally harmful to others and self-interest, which not only endangers people's health, but also stirs up the whole world's seafood market into a pot of.
Shouldn't this method of obtaining benefits by deception be stopped? Now, more than eight months have passed since Japan discharged nuclear wastewater, and according to experts' speculation, this nuclear sewage has already begun to affect the seas around the mainland.
One day in the future, we may really not be able to survive on the sea anymore, we can't eat seafood, we can't use seawater, and even if we control our ears strictly, there will be a risk of nuclear contamination, I can only say that Japan has really done all the bad things, and if the risky products are really only sold to the United States, I am really afraid that one day our country will suffer.
When the United States raised its hands in favor of Japan's discharge, the two countries became the biggest perpetrators on the planet, and one day they will pay the price for the decisions they made.
