Chapter 56: Political Show and Troublemaking
The election campaign in New York is just around the corner. The position www.biquge.info of mayor of New York City is an extremely important position for the whole of the United States. In terms of attention, the New York mayoral election should be second only to the presidential election in the United States.
James, editor-in-chief of the daily Clarion Journal, was also among the candidates. This is something that Li Jie didn't expect before. Because the list of candidates for mayor of New York City was announced today, it was not clear to Grade Lee who would run.
And the moment he saw James's photo, Li Jie instantly figured out everything. Why did the daily Clarion chase Peter's news, and why did it magnify the whole affair.
Why is the lawyer named Lucar able to repeatedly enter the media's field of vision and keep making nonsense?
Why did James personally go into battle to write an editorial criticizing the current lack of legal supervision in New York City, as well as questioning and criticizing the New York City police.
The ultimate purpose of an election is to get voters to vote for themselves, so that they can be elected. And why should the voter vote for you? He knows who you are!
Therefore, in the election campaign, speech lobbying, television speeches and various debates are particularly important. You have to let the voters know you first! Otherwise, you haven't heard your name, who will vote for you?
In order to gain the support of voters, it is not the first time that a candidate has made various pie-drawn speeches in a televised speech. There are also various eye-catching political shows.
For example, there is a mayor in the United Kingdom because polls show that his approval rating is very low. The mayor made the bold decision that if the city's football team were to reach the last 16 of the Premier League, he would jump into the lake and swim 100 meters in the costume of the football team's mascot.
He presented himself like a man who was extremely supportive of sports in the city. In this respect, he seemed to be like an ordinary citizen. When people have a common hobby, they will soon get closer to each other.
Because you're like, hey, lo and behold, that guy is playing the same game as me!
Especially when the person doing this is still a high-ranking person, this can capture people's hearts even more. In particular, the mayor finally fulfilled his promise and jumped into the lake to swim in the costume of the mascot.
People like to watch others do stupid things and then gloat at the side. Especially when this stupid thing is done by their own mayor, they will let down their guard, and some people will think that the mayor is actually not bad.
This kind of political show happens every day around the world, but voters eat it. Isn't it interesting to watch the superior Bo laugh at himself?
And James's current crazy Black Spider-Man is also a kind of show. That's right, Spider-Man is indeed very popular among New Yorkers right now.
This kind of blackening a superhero seems to be contrary to the popular will of the people. But James, of course, had his own ideas. If Spider-Man has the same prestige as Captain America, then James will not say a bad word when he is killed.
Just look at Clarion Daily's coverage of Captain America's lawsuit with the military. James is one-sided and brainless to support Captain Rodgers. Why? Because Rogers' appeal is so great, the people are almost all supporting Rogers. Moreover, such a thing as a black government is almost a kind of political correctness for ordinary people.
And the same superhero, Spider-Man, although also loved by New Yorkers. But not to the point where Captain Rodgers is so entrenched and unshakable.
When everyone is saying that Spider-Man is good, suddenly a rebuttal to Spider-Man can really catch people's attention. Especially James, an old and spicy reporter, has a pretty good writing, and he can always find other special angles to attack Spider-Man.
Maybe some Spider-Man fans will feel angry at first and feel that this person is hacking their idol. But as mentioned earlier, Spider-Man has not yet become a national idol like Rogers. There are still a lot of people in New York City who don't like him, like George Stancy.
People who don't like Spider-Man will find James to have a point, and they will spread the idea to their friends.
In this way, the attitude of many neutral passers-by towards Spider-Man may turn dark. This was a huge blow to Spider-Man, who received a double blow from both media and public opinion.
And what did he pay for James? He just moved the pen, and it didn't take much effort to attract quite a bit of popularity for himself.
As for what he might have said wrong, it doesn't really matter, does it? It's a political show, just a political show. THE WORD SHOW ORIGINALLY MEANT TO BE A PERFORMANCE. And isn't fiction and exaggeration part of the show?
Like Lucar, a lawyer who is now fighting a lawsuit against Mark McHon, he is also putting on a show. Anyway, someone paid for him to do it, why didn't he do it.
For him, this is a good thing to expand his visibility. You must know that the lawyer industry also emphasizes star effect. Well-known lawyers are able to take on more cases and pay better.
And fame is almost an expectation for every lawyer. Like Matt, the lawyer who is now fighting for Rogers, he went from a little-known lawyer in Brooklyn to a well-known American barrister in an instant.
As long as his case is successful, Lucar is almost certain that Matt will soar in the future. This makes Lucar very unbalanced, and Matt has only been in the law firm for a few years and has already achieved such an achievement.
As a top student who graduated from Yale University, it took more than ten years for his career as a lawyer to reach his current status. So when someone approached him and expected him to take on the Mark McHon case. As soon as Lucar figured out the key, he immediately realized that this was his chance, a chance to skyrocket.
Anyway, someone will pay the lawyer's fee, and the lawsuit is not difficult to fight. Just give a sum of money and ask the convenience store staff not to talk nonsense. For Lucar, he knows this kind of thing very well. After more than ten years in the lawyer industry, he has become perfect in his own right.
It's a matter of fame and fortune, so why not do it. As for whether he will hurt Spider-Man or the New York police by doing this, I'm sorry, he doesn't care.
Lucard's apartment in New York is an upscale condominium operated by a Hilton hotel in Manhattan. As an elite lawyer, Lucar doesn't have much time to take care of his own house, and living in a managed hotel apartment is the best option.
Hilton Hotels & Resorts, an international five-star hotel chain, has launched a full-service condominium in Manhattan exclusively for New York City's elite.
From helping with plane tickets to getting tickets to NBA games at Madison Garden. From car rental services to professional laundry and ironing services, they take care of everything.
It meets the needs of those business elites who are busy with work and have high quality of life. Of course, rents here are not cheap. A 150-square-meter apartment can cost up to $250,000 a year. And all kinds of services are provided at an additional cost.
Lucar lives on the 40th floor of this hotel apartment, which has an expansive view. Being able to see the bright lights of New York City at night and overlooking the night view of New York City will give him a sense of superiority as a human being.
He liked the apartment, so he wasn't going to buy a house or move somewhere else. You know, you won't find a Hilton hotel with such good service and security.
The security system at the Hilton is excellent and there has never been a case of theft. This doesn't even happen if you forget to lock the door.
At least until tonight, Lucar had always thought so.
"Good evening, Mr. Lucar. I think I need to talk to you about your ridiculous behavior and slander against Spider-Man. The man in the gray jumper sat in Lucar's hall and waited for his return.
His tone was gloomy, as if he was hiding his anger. Lucar tried to escape his room, but another strong man in a black skull logo uniform blocked his way.
There was no violence, but Lucar understood. I seem to be in trouble. Spider-Man is a cheerful and kind hero who doesn't attack ordinary citizens who don't have criminal tendencies. Even those who were hostile to him.
So he doesn't care how he denigrates Spider-Man, because Spider-Man won't come to him for trouble over this.
But not all of his friends are like this, at least not the two who appeared in front of him. The key to the house in Lucar's hand slipped silently.
