eating and said to everyone sitting around the table: "Maybe right now, we have to give up our research work. If the Americans can create an atomic bomb, it means we have fallen so far behind them in every field that it will be difficult to catch up." My superior officer was very angry at this statement.

I also understand to some extent the potential of atomic energy, but I still think it will take at least 20 years to complete the creation of an atomic bomb. So I was surprised to learn that the Americans had finished creating this type of bomb. Obviously, if the Americans have advanced that far, our technology is still too primitive compared to theirs. I said there was no weapon that we could make that could compare with the atomic bomb, and I said that we could not make any new weapon or means of defense that could withstand it. atom. The news of the atomic bomb being dropped on Hiroshima was unbelievable to me personally. The technical gap between Japan and the US is too large.

Before that, even though we knew there was a gap between American and Japanese technology, we still thought Japan's technology was very good. For example, we once recovered some intact equipment from a downed American B.29 bomber and found that the Americans had used some advanced technical equipment and circuits. different from ours, but those aren't much better than what we're using.

That's why when I heard about the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, I realized that America's industrial power was much greater than we thought, if not completely superior. I should have known this before. In fact, when I was a high school student, I watched a movie about the construction of Ford Motor Company's River Rouge complex in Dearborn, Michigan, and at that time I was very surprised by what happened. The project is of such massive scale. The film introduces large ships carrying iron ore from distant mines to Ford's River Rouge steel plant, from where it is smelted into many types of steel with different shapes. After smelting, the steel is transferred to another workshop, to be cast or molded into machine parts for the automotive industry and then transferred to another workshop for assembly. At that time, Japan did not have any integrated production technology like that.
