Chen Geng nodded: "What is his request?"

Don't have the opportunity to ask for 300,000, but only 100,000, what Tim Pan wants may exceed 300,000, Chen Geng is too familiar with this kind of routine, that is to say, the actual value of what this Tim Pan wants is definitely more than 300,000.

As it turned out, Patricia Edith Harris said: "Mr. Tim Pan wants to join your ruling team. ”

Hey......

Chen Geng was a little surprised: "This guy has so much confidence in me? He is so sure that I can succeed in the election?"

Chen Geng was really a little surprised, although he himself thought that his chances of winning were more than seventy percent, but this was just Chen Geng's own thoughts, even if there was a 99% success rate, wouldn't there still be a 1% chance of failure? This Tim Pan was so confident that he would definitely be able to win? What made Chen Geng feel even more strange was: "Hmm...... If I'm not mistaken, Senator Jeremy White asked him to be his aide at the time, and he turned him down, and now he wants to get on his boat?"

A guy who turned down an invitation from a sitting senator actually got on the pole and wanted to get on his own boat, which sounds a little weird.

"Maybe Mr. Tim is very optimistic about your future?" Patricia Edith Harris also wondered, and she speculated tentatively, "I have a few more candidates for campaign managers here, including ...... with a whole team."

By implication, if you don't trust this Mr. Tim Penn, that's okay, I've picked a couple of campaign managers for you, and you can use whoever you see fits.

However, Patricia Edith Harris said this, which piqued Chen Geng's interest in this Tim Pan somehow, he thought about it and said, "Don't worry, I'll meet with this Mr. Tim Pan first, and then talk, huh...... You give me other people's information. ”

"Okay. ”

Patricia Edith Harris answered, and hurriedly handed the prepared materials to Chen Geng with anxiety.

Looking at this list of campaign managers and resumes, Chen Geng's brows furrowed slightly: the resumes of these campaign managers...... It's a little shabby.

One of the best on the record was that he had helped two gubernatorial candidates run for office, but both of them failed - of course, failure was failure, but at that time, the gubernatorial race was already fiercely competitive, and there were only 51 governors in the United States, right? It's understandable that he failed, and this guy's performance is actually good, after losing the election, he didn't know how to get in touch, but he actually helped his candidate to connect with the successful candidate, and successfully made his candidate an lieutenant governor, and both times, from this point of view, this campaign manager still has two brushes.

But what made Chen Geng unhappy was that Nima Laozi was so rich that the best campaign manager he could hire had only participated in the gubernatorial race...... And both times failed...... Lao Tzu is just running for mayor, what about those guys who have participated in the presidential race? Is Lao Tzu so rich that he can't be invited? What kind of face does this make Lao Tzu the richest man in the world lose face?

Helen Mirren, as the first person to follow Chen Geng's side, is very familiar with the mentality of her boss, or the mentality of the super-rich, she explained to Chen Geng with a smile: "Boss, it's not that Patricia doesn't work hard, in fact, her work is already very good." ”

Well?

You actually helped her speak?

Chen Geng glanced at Helen Mirren in some surprise, but he didn't say anything, waiting for Helen to give him an explanation.

It was Patricia Edith Harris who glanced at Helen Mirren gratefully: there were some things she really couldn't explain to herself.

"That's right," Helen Mirren explained to Chen Geng: "These campaign managers actually cherish feathers, especially those who have participated in the presidential campaign, although they have more campaign experience and connections, but you can also know that at their level, they are not really short of money." ”

“......”

Chen Geng nodded, didn't speak, and waited for Helen Milun to continue.

He actually understands this truth, a campaign manager who can help a candidate run for president of the United States, must have unimaginably rich and deep connections in the Democratic and Republican parties, as well as in the political, economic, media, business and many other fields, and for this kind of extremely intelligent guy, this kind of network resources are naturally easy to convert into wealth - not to mention the richer rewards given by the candidates after they help the candidates succeed in the election.

Helen Mirren went on to say, "They don't lack wealth, so they value their success rate even more......"

"Wait," Chen Geng interrupted Helen Mirren's words and said in surprise, "So, those guys don't accept my invitation, do they look down on me?"

He understood what Helen Mirren meant: For those Niu X campaign managers who don't have much wealth, but they should be worth tens of millions of dollars, they think that Lao Tzu is a rookie, a raw melon and egg, and the probability of failure is relatively high, and if Lao Tzu loses the election, it will have a bad impact on their reputation, so they are unwilling to take Lao Tzu's order?!

Thinking of this, Chen Geng almost wanted to scold: This Nima is simply ridiculous!

Helen Mirren nodded wryly, not daring to speak: it is indeed so...... After all, this is your first campaign, isn't it? Election defeat, that's normal.

Chen Geng took a deep breath and quickly adjusted his mood.

Looking at the big boss whose face had disappeared, Patricia Edith Harris felt the surprise in her heart: it was really ...... to be the first personal assistant of the big boss Gee!

This is actually Patricia Edith Harris thinking too much, which has little to do with whether Helen Mirren is Chen Geng's first personal assistant, the main reason why Chen Geng was able to adjust his mood so quickly is that he suddenly realized the reason why those Niu X guys are unwilling to be his campaign manager: Isn't this special meow a realistic version of "money is not everything"!

Of course, if Chen Geng really relentlessly drops an eight-figure check on those guys who have successfully helped a certain candidate run for president, Chen Geng also believes that these guys may not be able to continue to stick to their principles, but what is the point of that? Maybe people will be laughed at for being stupid and having a lot of money. The campaign talents that Harris helped himself screen out are the most suitable for himself: although they are not the best, but they are also quite good, if those campaign managers who have participated in the presidential race are the top ten super students in the city, then Patricia Edith Harris has found these campaign managers for herself, at least they are also the top 200 in the city, maybe they are the top 100 in the city, and they can be admitted to 985 and 211, in this case, what else is there to be satisfied with?

It's good to figure it out, and if you figure it out, your thoughts will be clear.

Chen Geng nodded and said to Patricia Edith Harris, "You did a good job, huh...... Leave me the information, I'll take a good look. ”

Although Tim Pan's request is not excessive, and his past resume is also excellent, Chen Geng has to carefully study who to choose as his campaign manager, and even consult professionals in the industry - he and these guys who play politics are almost two parallel lines that they don't want to belong, but for Joterson and Alex Goodrich, everyone is an insider, especially for Alex Goodrich, Chen Geng believes that he must know about these guys.

Patricia Edith Harriston breathed a sigh of relief and a smile welled up on her face: this was an endorsement of her efforts.

Chen Geng's recognition was very important to Patricia Edith Harris, and she hurriedly nodded: "Thank you, boss." ”

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

Chen Geng found that there is no impermeable wall in this world, and he had the idea of running for mayor of Detroit, as the former mayor of Detroit and the deputy governor of Michigan, Alex Goodrich called him, and after a few polite words, Alex Goodrich asked Chen Geng directly: "Sir, do you intend to run for mayor of Detroit?"

Chen Geng didn't bother to ask Alex Goodrich where he got the news, it is estimated that nine times out of ten it was when Patricia Edith Harris helped him understand the situation of those campaign managers, and he was known by this guy, he didn't deny it, nodded and said: "It's this idea, what?"

"Oh, nothing," Alex Goodrich's voice sounded a little excited, for some reason, "yes, sir, I'm a little curious to hear that you're looking for a suitable campaign manager." ”

"Oh......"

Chen Geng answered, waiting for Alex Goodrich to continue, he didn't believe that Alex Goodrich was just curious and called him.

Sure enough, after a brief pause, Alex Goodrich cautiously asked, "Sir, you know, I'm doing a good job in the position of lieutenant governor, so I want to try to run for governor or senator, but I haven't decided exactly which seat to run." ”

I see!

Hearing Alex Goodrich's temptation, Chen Geng immediately understood what this guy meant, and he was asking if he would continue to support him.

Instead of answering Alex Goodrich's question directly, Chen Geng asked him, "What about you? What do you think yourself? Do you want to run for governor or for the senate?"

"I'd certainly like to run for governor if I could, but two senatorial seats in each state ......," Alex Goodrich sounded distressed.

But Chen Geng smiled: It is true that each state in the United States has two senators, but these two senators are not running at the same time, but there is a time difference...... But that's still not the point.

"Alex, you know, I don't really care, whether you're running for governor or for the Senate, I'm going to support you, but if you're running for president, I suggest you run for governor...... Most of the presidents of the United States have a resume as governor, and you know this and understand the significance of this resume. ”

For the position of president of the United States, the governor is equivalent to the "presidential reserve", because of the relatively special political structure of the United States, resulting in a great power of the governor, saying that the governors of the United States are a small president with incomplete diplomatic power and incomplete military power, in fact, it is not wrong, in the American political arena, the governor does not bird the president, and even directly pushes back the president's order There are too many examples, and it is not uncommon, and when the president of the United States is on the governor, he usually rarely "orders" The form of communication, more or communication and equal consultation.

In other words, a guy with a governor's work history is actually equivalent to having experience on the ruling side, which is of great help to the president, and this resume is incomparable to the position of a senator.

Alex Goodrich understands this, but he has his own troubles......

"What you're saying, but the problem is, I'm from an ordinary background," Alex Goodrich said distressedly, "and the presidents of the United States ...... There are some unspoken rules, you know, right? So I'm basically not going to be president of the United States. ”

"Yes. Chen Geng nodded.

In American politics, there are indeed many unspoken rules, such as that the president must be white and must be of Anglo-Saxon descent, such as that the president must be from those long-established political families...... But don't forget, many years before the campaign, that Black started to paint his face and say that he was a descendant of the Anglo-Saxons: Don't you see that my skin is chocolate and not pure black? As for why the descendants of the Anglo-Saxons became chocolate, that's another story.
