China, Japan, South Korea, the Eighth China -Japan -Korea Leadership Meeting in Chengdu, China on Tuesday (24th). The Chinese representatives of the State Council of the State Council Li Keqiang and President of the State Council ..., Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and South Korean President Moon Jae -in.There are many problems between the Three Kingdoms, and it is not expected to have any breakthrough development in this Sino -Japanese and Korean Leadership Council.Some theoreticals quoted the scriptures and believed that Chengdu was the capital of the Shu Kingdom in the Three Kingdoms of China. It is reminiscent of the modern version of the three kingdoms staged between China, Japan and South Korea today to fight against each other.But if we think seriously, the conference's site selection may not just reflect in Chengdu, but not just this cultural association, but the foothold of the common interests of the Three Kingdoms in the future.

The Romance of the Three Kingdoms works derived from the Three Kingdoms and its derived novels is not only the story of the Chinese country's hukou, but also due to the spread of Chinese culture in ancient times, which is widely circulated in Japan and South Korea.As a common culture, many people today talk about the story of the Three Kingdoms of the Three Kingdoms when they talk about China, Japan and South Korea.If you don't think about what the outside world thinks, the nationals of China, Japan and South Korea have long believed that the relationship between the three countries has always been more enemies than friends. Over time, self -realization has realized the confrontation ideology of the three East Asians.

It is undeniable that China, Japan and South Korea have formed a lot of grace and grievances in the process of modernization.Japan was the first to complete the Westernization of the Three Kingdoms, provoked the aggression against South Korea and China, and has become a mustard that has become a relationship between the Three Kingdoms.China has suffered twists and turns in the process of modernization, and its national strength consumes long -term loss, allowing Japan to become the protagonist on the East Asian stage during the pre -war and after -war period.However, after the reform and opening up of China, it has grown rapidly beyond Japan, but it is not a taste of this Japan, which has long been in the light of the yellow race in East Asia.In addition, historical issues and territorial disputes have troubled the relationship between the two countries from time to time, which makes people feel that it is difficult to break through in China and Japan.South Korea is even more sources, and the status of East Asia is a bit embarrassing.South Korea has been occupied by Japan for many years. The people are not friendly to Japan. They have to sit on the same boat in the post -war East Asian order controlled by the United States.On the other hand, South Korea is more friendly with China because of North Korea and the United States.

At first glance, China, Japan, and South Korea are indeed like ghosts. Even if the Three Kingdoms sitting with a discussion, how big the results can be suspicious.However, even if everyone thinks that the three countries of China, Japan, and South Korea are the case, and how to talk about it, they can't talk about any important results, but the three countries quietly strengthen each other's interests in the long -term running -in.

Why is it in Chengdu?

China, Japan, and South Korea have been approaching, understanding, and strengthening cooperation in recent years, which is related to the time -sequentialness with Trump's succession as President.Many theoreticals have already noticed that Trump's trade and diplomacy policies have adopted U.S. priority, which has caused great trouble for the allies of Japan and South Korea.The most noticeable of these is that Trump withdrew from the Pan -Pacific Strategic Economic Partnership Agreement (TPP), which made Japan very embarrassing between China and the United States.The significant increase in regional influence also affects Japan's interests.Furthermore, issues such as the trade agreement and garrison in the United States are also a big attitude towards Japan and South Korea.It is required to bear the strong rebound of South Korea in South Korea's fees in South Korea.

Undoubtedly, the U.S. runaway is an opportunity to stimulate Japan and South Korea to redefine East Asian issues, but it must really make China, Japan and South Korea's deeper cooperation more than that, but the common interests that the three can see.If you think more according to this method, it is not difficult to scrutin the conference of this China -Japan -Korea leaders in Chengdu.At present, the largest common interests of the Three Kingdoms are emerging markets of Southeast Asia and South Asia (Indian Ocean), which is the regional comprehensive economic partnership agreement (RCEP) that is in full swing.The RCEP agreement includes the ten ASEAN countries, China, Japan, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand, and India, which temporarily withdrawn.If including India, the total GDP of RCEP countries accounts for 32.2%of the world and the total foreign trade value accounts for 29.1%, and the contained population is about half the world.Shortly before the China -Japan -Korea Leaders' Meeting, at the Sunday (22nd) meeting in Beijing, the Sino -Japanese and Korean Minister of Economic and Trade was held in Beijing. The Three Kingdoms agreed to actively promote the signing of RCEP within 2020.

If the RCEP countries are placed in the center of the map, it is not difficult to find that Chengdu is in the center.With a long -term development of China, Chengdu has become one of the important railway transportation hubs in southwestern China.In March of this year, the last section of the Chengkun Railway connected to Sichuan and Yunnan was officially completed.Yunnan is a geographical key to connect China in Southeast Asian countries. The improvement of the railway network of Chengdu Kunjun also means that China will be able to quickly and quickly connect cities and ports in Southeast Asia quickly.Essence

At this moment, China, Japan, and South Korea are located in Chengdu to hold a summit meeting. In the end, it is just a matter of thinking, or it is still being declared the cooperative relationship of the new era of the Three Kingdoms. It is believed to be self -evident.In the past two centuries, China, Japan and South Korea have been trapped in their own historical issues.However, history will not be possible to hinder further cooperation in the three countries forever.The geopolitical cooperation interests of China, Japan and South Korea will overwhelm the rejection of historical burdens and promote the new East Asian relations.
