According to the figure provided by the Report of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, during the Japanese War of Aggression Against China, to solve the problem of insufficient laborers domestically, Japan forcefully recruited 38,945 Chinese laborers in the two‐some years from March 1943 to May 1945 for the important Japanese enterprises to enslave. In recent years, the domestic and historical circles have paid great attention to the research into the Chinese laborers who were forcefully recruited to Japan. Great progress has been made as a whole and many achievements have been obtained. However, the case study of the enslavement of the Chinese laborers by Japanese enterprises is not profound enough, except for the fairly thorough study of the Kashima Hanaoka Minerals Institute. The US government pointed out when Japan was defeated: All the Japanese financial groups were the militarists and the largest war potentials of Japan. It is the existence of the Japanese financial groups that made Japan’s aggression and conquest become possible. Based on the study of the enslavement of the Chinese laborers by the Mitsubishi Minerals Society under the Mitsubishi Financial Group, this article mainly exposes the war crimes of the Japanese financial groups and denounces and refutes the lies told in the Report of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan.
