Ambassador Kato was overjoyed.
"That would be wonderful. Thank you so much, Mr. Hardy, for working hard on behalf of the Japanese people. We are sincerely grateful." He bowed deeply again.
Hardy smiled lightly. "Persuading them to visit Japan for industrial inspections is one thing, but whether you can keep them is another. You must understand that this is a rare opportunity. When you return, have the government prepare a list of investment worthy companies. This will make it easier for these companies to invest once they arrive in Japan."
"When we were investing in Europe, other European countries did the same. I hope Japan shows sincerity because this might be the only chance."
"Yes, Your Excellency, I will inform the Prime Minister of your words," Ambassador Kato said, bowing again.
