Rosalind was shocked when she heard the boss's question, she clearly knew why the boss asked this question, and it was definitely not as simple as looking forward to changing the president of the United States as soon as possible.

"Yes, BOSS, next year is the quadrennial election in the United States. ”

The United States has always practiced a presidential system, elections are held every four years, the electoral system is extremely complex, it takes a long time, one state after another counts votes, one region after another makes speeches, and those who are not in good health are tired enough, and they have almost been elected but lost due to physical conditions.

The whole process is a great test of the candidates' abilities, including the ability and strength of the campaign team, which is the key to determining the outcome of the campaign.

After all, the United States is the world's largest economy, and its every action affects the economy and even the future fate of many countries.

Wu Qian looked at the glass in his hand that only had ice cubes left, picked up the ice cubes with his fingers and threw them into his mouth, crunching and chewing to pieces.

"Find out all the information about all the candidates who participated in the election this time, and the more detailed the better. ”

This work may seem tedious, but in fact, every candidate will frequently appear in various media in the process of canvassing for himself, and the past, recent experiences and current events are overwhelmingly reported by the media, almost transparent people.

It's very easy to gather information about candidates.

Rosalind was so worried that she summoned Cooks over to gather information for her boss on the grounds that she had a lot of work, and the two exchanged information in secret.

The two are full of worries about what the boss is about to do right now.

It is much easier to manipulate the development of third world countries behind the dark curtain than to influence the presidential election of the United States, and they are sure that the boss is going to interfere in the next election of the United States!

The two guessed well at all, in the face of the repeated difficulties, oppression and control of the United States, Wu Qian decided not to retreat again and again, he planned to give it a go and play a big, oversized kind!

How difficult it is to compete with the behemoth of the United States, a country that completed the moon landing in 1969 and is now the world's largest economy.

It's difficult, it's hard to get to the sky.

It doesn't mean that there is no way, and supporting a candidate is a very good way.

The challenge is unprecedentedly difficult, and in the eyes of Rosalind and Cooks, it is even more difficult than Solan's development from zero to the success of the moon landing, and behind each candidate is one or more forces.

These relationship networks are intertwined, interests and interests, rights and interests, and they are as chaotic as a bowl of fried rice noodles.

It can be said that the United States election is the largest "whirlpool" in the world, and it is casual to add or not to add "one", if you are involved in this "whirlpool", the slightest carelessness is a catastrophe.

The hearts of the two were full of worries, worries were worries, and what should be done still had to be done.

Rosalind and Cooks quickly sorted out the information, all the candidates' information was printed out page by page, and there was hardly any noise in the quiet cabin except for the sound of the printer, and if you didn't look out of the porthole, you didn't know that it was 10,000 meters above the Atlantic Ocean at the moment.

In less than half an hour, a small stack of A4 printer paper was placed in front of Wu Qian.

There are still two hours before getting off the plane, and there is still an hour before the start of negotiations between Mao Ziguo and Saudi Arabia, but it doesn't matter, because negotiations need a process, not that the negotiations will come out at the beginning, if that is the case, there is no need to sit at the negotiating table.

Wu Qian didn't think about anything else, he picked up the first sheet from the stack of information paper and looked at it seriously.

Bernie Sander, a gray-haired veteran politician in his eighties, is pictured with a warm smile and is very relatable, and once served as a senator in Vermont......

Just by glancing at his age, Wu Qian threw the information about Bernie Sander into the shredder, and his advanced age is full of too many uncertainties that do not conform to the principles of investment.

He has treated this project as an investment and operates in full accordance with the principles of investment.

Before Wu Qian could pick up the second piece of information, the phone that was thrown away was lying on the floor and rang stubbornly, Wu Qian glanced at it and ignored it.

Rosalind walked quickly to the place where the phone fell and picked it up and looked at it, and said, "BOSS, the call from 'Sandezi', do you want to listen?"

Woodward's name in the Wu Qian address book is exactly "Sandezi".

Wu Qian smiled and raised his hand to bring the phone.

Woodward had nothing else to do, just a simple work report, and in just one hour, he had completed 30 percent of his short positions, using up $60 billion.

The trading volume shows how terrible the flow of money in the WTI market is during this hour.

If the funds in the WTI market were trickling like a stream on a calm day, then the hour before was the rushing Amazon River!

In the process of trading, Woodward sighed more than ten times that something big was going to happen, something big was going to happen, but he still didn't dare to take out even a penny to invest, the waves in the market were really terrible, and a wave could make him unrecoverable.

"Boss, judging from the current market, has achieved a profit of half a billion dollars. ”

Barbara's eyes sparkled and she interjected, this beautiful woman who regarded money as her life was extremely excited, in stark contrast to Woodward, who was a little sluggish.

Wu Qian chuckled lightly and said, "The two of you have done a good job, and when the negotiations begin, no matter what news is rumored by the outside world, please increase the position to seventy percent, that's it, you are busy." ”

Wu Qian didn't say anything about making $500 million at all, because it wasn't the profit he liked at all, and $500 million could only be regarded as a corner of the game at most in this chess game.

At the end of the call, there was a soft knock on the door of the office in London, Woodward opened the door, and Femiler appeared at the door, who came to help and supervise.

Putting down the phone, Wu Qian continued to pick up the information of the second candidate, Amy Crob, a shrewd and capable woman who served as a senator from Minnesota.

Wu Qian looked at Amy Krob's campaign views, Krobb said that on the first day of "taking office", the United States will rejoin the Paris Agreement on climate change, and at the same time promised to introduce stricter gun control laws, improve the health insurance system, and increase support for the United States' military, diplomatic and intelligence personnel.

There is no problem with these, but after carefully reading Amy Krobb's campaign team information and her campaign path, Wu Qian found that this seemingly tepid candidate has an extremely firm will and is not an easy target to persuade.

Most importantly, Amy Crob made no mistakes during the election campaign, and there was no chance to see a stitch.

A few more pages of A4 paper were thrown into the shredder.

Time passed minute by minute, Wu Qian did not stop, he kept flipping through the information.

Rosalind was not idle, every time the boss put the information into the shredder, she would clean up the broken materials, and then incinerate them, and the plane was more than an hour to land at JFK Airport, and God knows if the plane would be investigated when it stopped at the airport.

The shredder is completely a gentleman's equipment to prevent villains, and for the CIA, it doesn't make any sense at all, and investigators who have just entered the bureau can easily piece pieces pieces back into their original shape, in case the CIA people know that their boss is researching election candidates, which is not a good thing.

Rosalind was very thoughtful, and handled the matter thoroughly, all the shredded paper was burned into ashes, and then with a "poof" sound, it was scattered in the air at a height of 10,000 meters.

The thickness of the stack of data paper slowly decreased, and although Wu Qian asked for detailed information, it did not mean that everyone needed to understand in detail.

It is only when the prerequisites meet the criteria that it is necessary to look down, which is like sifting through the candidates' resumes, looking at the diplomas first, then the qualifications, and if they meet the requirements, then looking down, otherwise it is a waste of paper.

Rosalind and Cooks had been on the side, seeing that the information paper in front of the boss had bottomed out, and at this time, Wu Qian raised his eyebrows and laughed inexplicably, looking at the information in front of him and raising a strange smile.

"Rosalind and Cooks, do you two know about the United States running for president?"

Wu Qian's eyes moved away from the information and looked at the two people on the side.

"Know a little. ”

"Understood. ”

Cooks knew less than Rosalind because his profession did not involve that aspect of knowledge.

Wu Qian nodded and asked, "I heard that there is a secret connection between the president of the United States and some big business groups, is that true? In addition, is it really expensive to run for president?"

Cooks and Rosalind glanced at each other, and said in their hearts, of course, it costs money, super expensive......

Rosalind was relatively more aware of the situation, and she took the initiative to speak, "BOSS, it is true that candidates need to consider the interests of their sponsors, and there is a deep connection between the two.

The California consortium sponsored Mr. Nisson in the early years, and eventually Mr. Nisson moved into the White House and became president, since then the California consortium has developed rapidly, and the Lockheed Martin company in the consortium has become the number one contractor for the defense of the United States, making a lot of money.

And so on and so forth, and that ...... The campaign process is really, very, very, expensive. ”

Rosalind used three very, which shows the high level.

Wu Qian put down the information in his hand, crossed his arms and asked with interest: "Then according to what you said, the president of the United States almost took money and piled it up?"

Rosalind smiled and said, "You can't push it back like this, you may not be able to be president if you have money, but you can't be president if you don't have money, that's right."

As far as I know, Mr. Prang has now raised more than $1 billion in campaign funds for re-election, and judging from the financial situation announced by the campaign team serving him, he still has nearly 100 million dollars in cash on hand, and Mr. Prung's own net worth of more than $3 billion is very strong. ”

If it weren't for Rosalind to say this, Wu Qian really didn't know, he said: "Okay, I know that money is very important in the election process, so what exactly is so much money used for?"

Money is just a tool, what to do with this tool, is the key, it's impossible to go out on the street and send money directly, say, hey, buddy, I'll give you a thousand dollars, remember to vote for me.

That's a bad brain......

Rosalind shrugged her shoulders and said, "There are so many things that can be done, there are so many things to do......

The presidential election in the United States has always been very expensive, and the election is not just about standing on the stage and giving speeches to the audience, but more importantly, encouraging people to become supporters of the candidate, and then letting the supporters vote for the candidate's election path.

It takes a lot of work to accomplish this task, and first of all, the candidate must have a sizable campaign team, and these staff members must be as small as the clothes and grooming, and the various strategies must be used to ensure that the presidential candidate is not leaky, and the cost of these people and their activities alone is a lot of money.

There are no mediocre people who can become campaign team members, most of them are leaders in a single field, these people are paid very well, and there are also cases of campaign teams poaching each other, and it is quite expensive.

The most important thing about elections is propaganda and campaigning, and radio, television, print advertising, the Internet, and on-the-ground speaking engagements across the country are all essential, each of which is expensive, not to mention the time-consuming accumulation of time across the country.

Even if a candidate has the talent to settle the country and settle the country, the consortium feels that such a person is too difficult to control, and if it does not provide financial support, it can only be a failure in the end.

The power of money has led to soaring costs for campaigning.

The essence of the U.S. election is a contest of capital, and most of the time, which candidate spends more money often wins the final victory, which is also the fundamental reason for the soaring cost of the U.S. presidential election.

"In fact, there is no shortage of excellent presidential candidates in the United States, but the vast majority of excellent people cannot get enough funds to run for president, and at most they can only commit themselves to serving as a staff member of a certain party and candidate, perhaps this is a disadvantage of money-burning democracy......

Rosalind fully expressed her point of view to the boss.

After listening to this, Wu Qian pondered for a while and said: "In short, spend money to build momentum, so that the people can more fully understand the charm of the candidate, so as to get votes, right?"

Rosalind and Cooks nodded, and that was the truth.

Wu Qian smiled and took away the hand that was pressed on the information, pointed to the photo on the information, and said: "The democratic hopeful, Ms. Kamar Harrison, publicly stated three days ago that her campaign may not be able to go on because of lack of funds, and I think I can help her." ”
