Chapter 821: The End of the Road
Xu Haoran casino opened, and made a better start than he expected, the opening day caused a national sensation, became the hottest topic in Daliang, and ranked first on the hot search list on the Internet, the second is Xu Haoran himself, and the third is Daxia Group.
And Xu Haoran's personal encyclopedia entries have also exceeded one million visits, many people are curious, Xu Haoran is so young, how did he rise, many people regard Xu Haoran as an idol, the goal of his life, and even some screenwriters began to write scripts based on Xu Haoran, ready to be made into a TV series.
Xu Haoran became the hottest figure in Daliang for a while, surpassing President Daliang in one fell swoop.
The development of the casino after that was very smooth, as Xu Haoran expected, in the case of all-round advantage, the business of the Zhao family casino was getting worse and worse, although Zhao Tianyi tried to recover the decline and thought of a lot of ways, but he still lacked skills.
In just one year, Xu Haoran's Minghao Casino accounted for two-thirds of the customers, and in another year, this advantage was further expanded, and Zhao Tianyi's casino had reached a situation that could only barely be maintained.
But Zhao Tianyi was unwilling to admit defeat like this, and pressed all the treasures on the new round of presidential election, intending to break Xu Haoran from another angle and reverse the decline.
For the sake of the new round of presidential election, Zhao Tianyi learned from the experience of previous failures, did not hesitate to spend blood, all kinds of crazy help to publicize and build momentum, and strictly asked the candidates he supported to pay attention to personal issues, so as not to die unexplained like Dai Wei in the Xingyue Island governor campaign.
The candidate has indeed strictly demanded himself according to his wishes, and widely publicized, will be committed to improving people's livelihood, and often appears on various public welfare occasions to increase exposure, so as to enhance the goodwill of Daliang voters towards him and get more people's support.
But Xu Haoran did the opposite, and Liu Xi, who supported him, used reform as a slogan, saying that if he won the election, he would devote himself to the reform of various ills of Da Liang, such as corruption* and so on.
Comparatively speaking, you can see which is higher and which is lower at a glance.
The problems in the Daliang system have existed for a long time, and the resentment is also deep, and many presidents are not unaware, but they are too widely involved and lack confidence and determination.
And Liu Xi is different, he and Xu Haoran are almost all the way, and he supported the Linchuan Development Zone back then, but Xu Haoran and him were not at the same level at that time, and there was no dialogue.
But now it's different, Liu Xi still has to look up to Xu Haoran.
Liu Xi wanted to reform, and Xu Haoran also strongly supported it, and the two hit it off.
After half a year of publicity and preparation, a new round of referendum was officially launched.
The Daliang Congress displays the number of votes for both sides in real time, and through advanced equipment, it ensures that every vote cast can be displayed in the Congress, which not only prevents the emergence of cheating, but also lets everyone know the change in the voting results.
Zhao Tianyi sat in the villa, his whole body was nervous, this was the last chance he had high hopes for to turn the tables, if the candidate he supported won, then he could use administrative means to intervene and gradually reverse the current decline, and there was still a chance to turn the tables, but if he failed, it would be difficult to compete with Xu Haoran again, after all, Xu Haoran had already defeated him in every aspect.
However, Zhao Tianyi also knows that Xu Haoran's influence on Xingyue Island is now on par with him, or even higher than him, coupled with Linchuan's stable votes, Xu Haoran's winning chance is greater than him.
But Zhao Tianyi had no choice but to hope that voters in other states in Daliang would support the candidate he chose.
During the propaganda period, Zhao Tianyi did not even go to Linchuan to publicize, because they knew that it would be useless to go, and it was better to focus more on other states that might succeed.
An hour passed, Zhao Tianyi's nerves collapsed like a string full of bows, but when he saw the immediate voting results, he was relieved that the candidate he supported received 54 percent of the votes, and as long as he maintained this advantage until the end, then he could win.
By three hours later, the result had widened to 55 percent.
Zhao Tianyi couldn't help but get excited, it seems that the emperor really lives up to his hard work, and after such a long period of hard work, he has finally reaped the results.
I thought again, wait for Lao Tzu to win, see how I deal with you, Xu Haoran!
Even Zhao Tianyi thought of the shady trick of rejecting Xu Haoran's casino license, this idea is a bit whimsical, but it is not completely impossible.
President Da Liang has very high authority, as long as he finds the loophole that approved the casino license back then, it is possible to overturn the casino license, and the license will be gone, what else will Xu Haoran play?
But it didn't take long for the situation to change, and the approval rating slowly dropped from 55 percent to 54 percent to 53......
At first, Zhao Tianyi thought that since it was an open vote, some fluctuations were normal, but he soon found out that something was wrong, and his support rate had been declining, and there was no trend of rebound.
Fifty-two percent!
Fifty-one!
It's about to flatten.
Zhao Tianyi was nervously on the sofa, shouting like a gambler: "Sheng, Sheng!"
But the result was cruel and ruthless, and the approval rating did not rise because of his call, and continued to fall.
Finally, it fell below the fifty mark!
Zhao Tianyi pulled the tissue and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, this time he invested a huge amount of money, sparing no expense, just wanted to gamble and fight against the water, who knew that the result was still unsatisfactory.
Forty-eight percent!
The final vote support was fixed at this number, and the general election voting ended.
At the National Assembly, Liu Xi straightened his suit, stood up, and bowed around amid a round of applause, announcing victory in the general election.
Xu Haoran applauded Liu Xi in front of the TV, and looked forward to the changes he would bring to Da Liang next.
People are in different positions, and their ideas are different, Xu Haoran is like this, now that his power and wealth have reached the peak, he is thinking more about seeking development for the country and the nation.
This is also due to Xu Haoran's personality, when he was just starting, he was able to donate all the proceeds from the auction, and now he is facing less pressure, so he will naturally spare no effort.
Therefore, even if Xu Haoran is a gangster, he has always been praised by the outside world.
Zhao Tianyi collapsed on the sofa, as if someone had robbed him of all his hopes, and he felt that the world was only gray and the end was coming.
……
Three months later, the staff of the Inspectorate broke into Zhao Tianyi's house and brought Zhao Tianyi to the Inspectorate for investigation.
Zhao Tianyi spent the whole night in the Inspectorate, and although he was released in the morning, he was still told that he needed to cooperate with the Inspectorate's investigation at any time, and at the same time restricted from leaving the country and was not allowed to leave the Daliang border.
Zhao Tianyi walked out of the gate of the Inspectorate early in the morning, haggard, with two dark circles under his eyes, and he was like two people in normal times, but the wind in the morning was cold, and a gust of wind blew his whole body cold.
Outside the gate of the Inspectorate, it was relatively deserted, except for a few passers-by, there was no one, and it was very different from the grand scene he imagined.
The car that finally picked him up came, but Zhao Tianyi took a look, but he only saw one, and there was only one driver in the car.
The driver drove the car to Zhao Tianyi and stopped, but it was drizzling again, and the driver hurriedly opened the door and got out of the car, picked up an umbrella to cover Zhao Tianyi from the rain.
Zhao Tianyi saw that it was so deserted, and asked the driver: "Why are you alone?"
The driver said, "Brother Yi, I heard that you were taken away by the inspectorate, and everyone was afraid of getting into trouble, so they all said that something was wrong." ”
"Hehe, the world is hot and cold!"
Zhao Tianyi couldn't help but look up to the sky and sighed, thinking that when he Zhao Tianyi was still beautiful, how many people were vying for it, where did he go?
Zhao Tianyi got into the car, the more he thought about it, the more resentful he became, these snobbish villains are hateful, but Xu Haoran is even more hateful, if it weren't for Xu Haoran, how would he have fallen to the point where he is today?
After thinking about it, Zhao Tianyi's eyes showed a murderous light, and he gritted his teeth and shouted, "Xu Haoran!"
