They paid them
The U.S. persuaded Japanese leaders to sign a trade treaty through a combination of diplomatic pressure and military presence. The arrival of Commodore Matthew Perry's fleet in 1853 showcased U.S. naval power, compelling Japan to reconsider its isolationist policies. The subsequent Treaty of Kanagawa in 1854 opened Japanese ports to American trade, establishing a precedent for further engagement. This approach demonstrated the effectiveness of combining military might with diplomatic negotiation to achieve trade objectives.

It depends on the treaty. For example, Japan was forced to sign the Convention of Kanagawa in 1854 from threats of US Naval Action should the Japanese refuse. To a lesser extent, the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki forced the hand of the Japanese to accept surrender in World War II even though many Japanese still wanted to fight. However, Japan gladly and willingly signed the Treaty of Versailles in 1919 because of the increased empire that it was rewarded with.
The Claytonâ??Bulwer Treaty was signed in 1850. John M. Clayton signed it for the United States and Sir Henry Lytton Bulwer for the United Kingdom.
The American naval officer who negotiated the treaty that opened two Japanese ports to U.S. ships in 1854 was Commodore Matthew Perry. He played a crucial role in ending Japan's period of isolation by convincing the Japanese government to sign the Treaty of Kanagawa. This treaty allowed for the establishment of diplomatic relations and facilitated trade between the United States and Japan.
