Zhou Ming and Danny's father and son walked out of the door of the café together and shook hands at the door to say goodbye. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Mr. Pol, although we have not reached a consensus or intention to cooperate in the past few days, I still think that this meeting is very meaningful, at least he has enhanced our understanding between us, and maybe we can have another chance to cooperate on other issues in the future. Zhou Ming said very politely to Pol Danny.

However, Pol Danny didn't understand the implication of the East, or he didn't take Zhou Ming in his eyes at all and said: "I think it's a pity today, because I came to cooperate with Zhou Ming with sincerity, and I also heard some of your deeds from Danny Jr., thinking that you are at least a mature and stable successful man, but you have chosen a very willful wrong path." ”

Zhou Ming smiled and said: "I'm sorry for Mr. Pol's disappointment, but Mr. Pol is a bit too arbitrary, right? Maybe my choice is a little willful, but after all, the results have not yet come out, how can it be said that it is the wrong path? Maybe I can find a future president of the United States?"

"I think Mr. Zhou Ming's words must be a joke, but it's a pity that the level of this joke is very low, and it is not suitable at this time. Poldanny said, with a funny look of contempt you're having with me.

Zhou Ming shrugged his shoulders senselessly: "Okay, if Mr. Pol insists on this, I don't think I have anything to say, then let's leave it at that, and wish Mr. Pol a successful start this time." ”

Boldanny also said: "It's a pity, I was expecting a new bourgeoisie to break the situation in Brighton, it seems that I was overhearted. But Zhou Ming, I hope you can remember the bet between us, maybe it's only a hundred dollars on the surface, but I hope to add more chips to my electors, such as voting from the Chinese community. ”

"Mr. Pol can rest assured that if Mr. Pol's candidacy is really very promising, I think I will help you. Zhou Ming said.

"Then I hope this time is not too long, or I may not need more help by then, you know a hundred thousand dollars is nothing. ”

After Pol Danny finished speaking, he turned around and left, and his son, Danny, who is also the president of the Harvard Student Union, did not leave immediately, but hesitated in place, and then persuaded Zhou Ming: "Zhou Ming, I know you have your own ideas, but maybe you can try to get to know my father's electors, I really hope that we can have the opportunity to cooperate." ”

After saying that, Danny thought for a while and said: "Or Zhou Ming, you can invest 100,000 US dollars in my father's campaign foundation first, so that we can be regarded as cooperating, and you can also find your ideal elector and let him participate in the election, it doesn't matter, you always say win-win, I think this is the most ideal state of win-win." ”

"Thank you very much Chairman Danny for your efforts, it is indeed a very constructive choice, but I am sorry that I will not accept a failed investment. Zhou Ming said, "Please forgive me for using the word failure, but John, I don't see the investment value in him, maybe he is very good at arguing in court, but election and court debate are different, the two are not comparable." ”

"I completely agree with you, but ......"

Danny still wanted to try to say something, but before he could say anything, he heard Pol Danny shouting at him over there, Danny had to apologize to Zhou Ming: "I'm sorry, but I hope you can consider my suggestions before making a decision." ”

After saying that, Danny returned to Pol Danny's side and complained to him: "Mr. Pol, I don't understand why you are doing this at all, this is completely different from what we said in advance, and you also know Zhou Ming's affairs very well, you also said that he is a person with a very unique vision, but why do you want to completely deny him today, I think it is not Zhou Ming who is arbitrary today, but you Mr. Pol!"

In the face of Danny's complaints, Boldanny looked indifferent, completely devoid of the arrogance and contempt just now.

Pol Danny looked at Zhou Ming's departing back for a while before asking Danny: "Mr. Danny, you said that Zhou Ming is a person with a unique vision, so in your eyes, what kind of person am I?"

Danny was completely blinded by his father's sudden rhetorical question, and after a while he reacted, and tentatively asked his father, "What Mr. Pol means is that you have your own ideas...... Or is it a bitterness?"

Poldanny shook his head, he still didn't answer directly, just sighed: "This matter is not as complicated as we see on the surface, you see the sun setting, do you think this day has passed? But in fact there is still a lot of time on this day, even if it is twelve o'clock, the time of this day has passed, it is also a new day is about to begin, as long as we are not lying in the coffin, the sun will always rise as usual, right?"

Danny was full of doubts about his father's philosophical and profound words, but when he thought about it, he seemed to understand what his father meant.

On the other side, Zhou Ming returned to the dormitory after saying goodbye to Danny and his son, Chen Shu, Li Yang and Ye Ning were waiting in the hall on the first floor, and when they saw Zhou Ming coming back, they immediately surrounded them, and you asked Zhou Ming how he was doing, and even their lawyer Alan was here.

"Lawyer Allen is here to collect his lawyer's fees? Ye Ning should have paid all the fees into your account, you have to worry, I know very well that you owe no fees here in the United States, and you can't owe your lawyer's fees. Zhou Ming teased.

Allen shook his head and said: "I'm not worried about the lawyer's fees, because I am very willing to become Mr. Zhou Ming's lawyer, even if I will be owed the lawyer's fees, after all, I am not short of money." In contrast, I am more worried about the outcome of Mr. Zhou Ming's cooperation negotiations this time, and I believe that these friends of yours will only be more concerned and anxious than me. ”

With Allen's words, Chen Shuye Ning and they all nodded desperately, after all, as Zhou Ming's closest people in the United States, they all know Zhou Ming's situation at the moment, Zhou Ming urgently needs to make a voice in politics, otherwise no matter how successful he is in business, he will eventually become a good meal of power.

Just like this time, it is clear that he has used Brooke's greed to successfully lead him into the game, and all the evidence points to Brooke as the real culprit, which is indeed the case, but the final result is that Brooke used the power of the parliamentary commission of inquiry to forcibly arrest himself in the FBI building for interrogation, and later sent people to intercept and kill him on the road.

All of this is a serious crime, and if he were replaced by another person, I am afraid that Brighton would have been in a uproar a long time ago, but he is Brooke, so from the judiciary to the public opinion media, he has become blind and dumb at the same time, unable to see or speak.

Why?

Just because he's Brooke, his own senator from Massachusetts, and he has the privileges that the Constitution gives him, that's all.

If America's plutocrats can openly use their power to protect themselves, why can't we follow suit and use democracy to fight for their own power?

Facing so many hopeful eyes, Zhou Ming sighed in his heart, in fact, he didn't tell them one more thing, that is, the conversation he had with Speaker Anthony in the garden restaurant that day, everything he said was only the first half, and the last most critical deal between himself and him, he didn't reveal half a sentence to anyone, even these people who were very close to him.

A million dollars plus the threat of a lieutenant governor and speaker will be able to make Zhou Ming compromise?

Of course, this is impossible, in fact, the transaction and compromise here are far more complicated than Zhou Ming said, and even involve many other aspects, including his insistence on not cooperating with Poldanny today;

Zhou Ming did not whet their appetite, and replied directly: "I met Danny's father, and he also recommended his candidate to me, lawyer John of the gold medal law firm, and he said that he would fund this lawyer John to run for district mayor. ”

Zhou Ming's eyes were looking at Alan when he said this, and Alan quickly responded: "Then what about Mr. Zhou Ming's decision?"

"I rejected his proposal, and I would have preferred to examine a candidate myself. Zhou Ming said.

Alan breathed a sigh of relief: "It's really good that you didn't accept it, because I know this lawyer John, he is indeed a very eloquent lawyer, and he also has his own political ambitions, but the key is that he does not understand politics, in a sentence of you Chinese, it is a great talent, yes, he is an idealist, he can always tell you a lot of his political ideas, but never consider whether his political ideas can be implemented, or even whether there is any practical significance." ”

Zhou Ming nodded: "I see, no wonder I haven't seen any record of him in any newspapers or magazines, and I don't have any impression of him at all." ”

"The choice you made was the best, but it looks like Mr. Danny Sr. is going to fail again this time. Ye Ning sighed and said.

"Okay, let's not gloat, after all, the day is not over yet, the sun will always rise tomorrow, who knows what the situation will be like later?" Zhou Ming smiled and rubbed Ye Ning's little head and said.

Ye Ning and the three of them were kind, and Allen asked Zhou Ming: "It's just that I'm curious, Mr. Zhou Ming, since you vetoed John, then you must have a more ideal candidate, right?" Because John, if he doesn't know him very well, it's really easy to be deceived by his eloquence, thinking that he is a person with great political passion and ability. ”

"I do have a very good fit," Zhou replied, "his name is Omar, and he is currently thirty years old, studying for a doctorate at Harvard Law School." ”

As soon as Zhou Ming's words fell, Allen was immediately surprised: "Omar? I know this person, he is the first black chairman of the Law Review, his legal theories are nationally recognized, and his eloquence is also very good, but all he shows is theoretical knowledge related to law, and you said that you want him to be your candidate......

Alan asked uncertainly, "Will this work?"
