In fact, Japan has attempted to atone for its past actions, including by offering enthusiastic support to Deng Xiaoping’s efforts to open up the Chinese economy. The trillions of yen that Japanese businesses have invested in China since the 1990’s – not to mention the transfer of critical technologies – could not have been about profit alone (and, in any case, Japanese investment has benefited both economies).
事实上，日本尝试了为过去的行为赎罪，包括对邓小平经济开放政策提供热情的支持。20世纪90年代以来，日本企业在中国投资了数万亿日元——更不用说转移关键技术了——其初衷绝不仅仅是为了利润（并且日本的投资给双方都带来了好处）。
