Chapter 1151: The union surrenders

By the time the work of the Automotive Engineering Institute had been arranged, two weeks had passed, and Tim Pan's face was so wrinkled that he could catch the mosquito: "Sir, it's time for you to visit Mr. Coleman." ”

Mr. Coleman, the current mayor of Detroit, Coleman Young.

Why do you want to visit Mr. Coleman? Because there is less than a month before the official handover of Chen Geng and Coleman Young, and according to the unwritten rules of American politics, in order to ensure that the new mayor can get started immediately after he officially takes over, the incoming mayor-to-be will visit the incumbent mayor a month before he officially takes office, and the incumbent mayor needs to take the prospective mayor to familiarize himself with the various departments of the city, as well as some things that need to be paid attention to in the work. This unspoken rule can be considered the American version of "get on the horse and give it a ride".

This Coleman Young is a legend, this guy is a black man, and if it weren't for Chen Geng's appearance, this guy would have been the mayor of Detroit since 1974, and he would have been there for 20 years. Because of the appearance of Chen Geng, there was a small change in Detroit in this time and space: Alex Goodrich served as the mayor of Detroit for one term, but after Alex Goodrich, Coleman Young successfully ran for mayor of Detroit again.

Under the "wise" leadership of this old man, the proportion of the black population in Detroit has been rising, and the proportion of the black population in the total population of Detroit has proudly climbed from 36.74% when Coleman Young first took office to 67.42%, and blacks have become the mainstream population of Detroit.

But black people, it's not that the author says bad things about black people, but everyone knows that the quality of black people is really not good, especially in Detroit, more than ninety percent of black couples are only responsible for giving birth to a baby, as for the education of the baby after birth, they don't care, and even some fathers can't find it when the baby is not born...... There are countless examples of similar situations in the NBA.

A large number of uneducated black children who have lived in slums since childhood grow up and enter society, you can imagine what it will bring to this society: they don't buy much education, so naturally they can't find any good actions, and they are familiar with various crimes such as robbery, **, and selling D from an early age......

In this case, Detroit's law and order situation has declined rapidly, and since the late 70s, Los Angeles has been kicked down, firmly occupying the throne of the first city in the United States in terms of crime rate, while a large number of middle-class white people have withdrawn from the city and lived in the suburbs.

But no matter what, since Coleman Young is still the current mayor of Detroit, according to the rules, Chen Geng will visit him and familiarize himself with the situation in Detroit in advance.

Chen Geng, who had already finished arranging the work at hand, looked at Tim Pan, who was in a hurry, with a helpless face: "Didn't I tell you, don't worry." ”

"Sir, how can we not be in a hurry?" The anxious Tim Pan knelt down for Chen Geng: "We have to familiarize ourselves with the situation." ”

Patricia Edith Harris also advised: "Yes sir, there is less than a month left before you officially take office, and it is customary that you should visit Mr. Coleman Young. ”

Marion Summerfield didn't speak, just stared at Chen Geng.

"Okay," Chen Geng sighed helplessly looking at his ruling team: "Since you feel it is necessary, then make an appointment with Mr. Coleman." ”

Anyway, my own affairs are arranged.

Tim Pan is waiting for Chen Geng's words!

As soon as Chen Geng's words fell, he immediately said, "I'll go now." ”

........................

What Chen Geng didn't expect was that before he could visit Coleman Young, an unexpected person came......

"Sir, Marion Talbot has come to visit you," Leilani Taylor's expression was a little strange, "He's outside your manor right now." ”

"Marion Talbot?" Chen Geng was also a little surprised: "Is that Marion Talbot from the North American Auto Workers Association?"

"That's him. Leilani Taylor nodded affirmatively.

"Tsk......" Chen Geng smacked his lips, he was very curious: "What is this guy doing here?"

"He said he had come to surrender to you," said Laylani Taylor, "and he said that he would be valuable to you for the rest of your reign, and I hope you will give him a chance to show you his worth in person." ”

"Surrender to me?"

Marion Talbot's reason was really unexpected by Chen Geng, but Marion Talbot's reason made Chen Geng a little moved: in the next four years of his administration, if he could get the support of the North American Auto Workers Association, he would undoubtedly be able to reduce a lot of trouble.

As soon as he thought of this, Chen Geng was a little moved, and wanted to hear what Marion Talbot had to say: "Then let me in." ”

I have no grievances with Marion Talbot, and I haven't heard of any bad behavior against humanity and anti-society this guy, if this guy really surrenders sincerely, then it doesn't hurt to give him a chance.

Soon, Laylani Taylor brought Marion Talbot to Chen Geng, facing Marion Talbot, Chen Geng was not polite to the other party, and asked bluntly: "Mr. Talbot, you said you are ready to surrender to me?"

"Yes sir," looking at Chen Geng, Marion Talbot said sincerely: "Because I can't afford to mess with you, I know very well how much wealth you have, although the annual dues collected by our union are a huge amount, but for you, this money is nothing at all." I know very well that I am no match for you, and that I am still enjoying all of this because you do not see me as an opponent who must be eliminated, and if I continue to fight against you, I dare not think about what I will face, and through your previous series of means, I am sure that you have many more ways to clean me up. ”

Speaking of this, Marion Talbot said seriously: "I don't want to go to prison, sir, I don't want to do it at all, so I beg you to give me a chance." ”

Hey?

Chen Geng looked at Marion Talbot with some surprise, he didn't expect to be able to hear such words from this guy's mouth: This guy is a smart person, he knows what to do is best for himself!

But if you think about it carefully, too, this guy has been in the guild for more than 30 years, and if he doesn't have enough political wisdom, how can this guy stay in the position of vice president and president of the North American Auto Workers Association for more than 20 years?

Since he is a smart person, Chen Geng doesn't mind giving the other party a chance...... As for the question of whether Marion Talbot would have carried any eavesdropping or recording equipment on him, and then used this conversation to threaten himself, Chen Geng's answer was: He can bring it in and count his ability!

With this in mind, Chen Geng nodded: "Tell me, Mr. Talbot, what value do you have to me? If you can move me, don't let you continue to keep everything you have now, and it will not be a problem for you to go further." ”

In the face of Chen Geng's kindness, Marion Talbot's heart struck: Great!

If he was a little unsure before he came, then now, Marion Talbot has enough confidence to convince Chen Geng.

"The North American Auto Workers Association has nearly 600,000 members, including more than 300,000 members in Detroit," Marion Talbot said tentatively.

Chen Geng shook his head without hesitation: "This is not enough. ”

Of course it's not enough, for any mayor of Detroit, being able to get the support of the union is like pie in the sky, which can make the mayor happy to death, but for Chen Geng, the union does not cooperate......? The union didn't cooperate, it really annoyed Lao Tzu, I can't get you, the chairman of the trade union.

Marion Talbot understood this, too, so he threw out his second condition: "Sir, that Edward Pilson is your man, right? I can train him to take my place and become president of the North American Auto Workers Association in 10 years." ”

This guy actually found out that Edward Pilson is my person?

At this moment, Chen Geng was really surprised, you must know that Edward Pilsen was secretly investigated and selected by Statham. W. Apple's training of him, in the process, Edward Pilson has never seen him, and he doesn't know his plans for his future, but now, Marion Talbot actually knows about his relationship with Edward Pilson?

Chen Geng's brows suddenly furrowed.

Looking at Chen Geng's frowning brows, Marion Talbot's heart suddenly burst: he seemed to be threatening Mr. Fernandez? Marion Talbot, who realized that he seemed to have done something wrong, hurriedly explained to Chen Geng: "Sir, I noticed Edward's talent in workers' organizations, I find it hard to believe that this talent is innate, after absorbing Edward into the union, I asked a private investigator to conduct a secret investigation of Edward, and found some of his and Michelle Anderbot's talents. W. Eppel's Relationship ......"

Speaking of this, Marion Talbot said to Chen Geng seriously: "Sir, your relationship with Mr. April is not a secret. ”

The reason for this......

"Okay," after a deep sigh, Chen Geng finally nodded: "You are a smart person, but what I want to say is that these are still not enough for me to let you go." ”
