Chapter 105: Link is busy
It stands to reason that Giovanni's answer would have given a sense of ill-preparedness, but he also made the television viewers watching the defense aware of one thing: he was sympathetic to family farms and small farms, while Kent Heaney was supportive of the big farms and agricultural groups.
And Kent Healy did prepare the answer to this question, and it prepared two sets of answers. One is for him to answer first, and the other is to refute Giovanni's possible arguments. In comparison, he preferred Giovanni to answer first. Then he will be on the offensive and it will be more beneficial to him.
And now Giovanni has said a point loss, but it also makes him have to answer the question first, which also means that he will be on the defensive on this issue.
But he can't show his cowardice in front of the camera. There was a seriousness in his voice, as if he wanted to strengthen his tone so that people would believe what he was saying, "No doubt it's a good question. It is also an issue that has always been controversial. ”
Kent Heaini began to say: "It is obvious that a small farm or a family farm goes bankrupt because it is not well managed, and then it is bought by a large enterprise or a large farm, which is a legitimate business practice that is conducive to the development of agriculture. ”
He didn't give Giovanni any chance to interject, and said quickly: "What is more obvious is that the big farms or agricultural enterprises have more money to spend on technology upgrades, and they are constantly investing, increasing production efficiency, increasing production and increasing production, to meet the food needs of the United States and the world." ”
"We all know that there are still more than a billion people hungry in the world, and the world's population is growing rapidly, and dozens of countries are in a tight food supply situation, including those in Africa, Asia and South America. We in the United States are world leaders. It is obligated to lead the world in declaring war on hunger. In order to accomplish this task, it is necessary for us to increase our combat effectiveness. How can we enhance our combat effectiveness? We need a group of leading geese. Undoubtedly, the most suitable leaders are the big farms and big farm enterprises. Such as **S, Monsan, and Tyson. We need them to have a stronger fighting force, like a general, to lead our small farms to declare war on hunger and fight tirelessly. ”
"As for ......"
Hearing this, Link sneered in his heart, snapped his fingers, and said to Mike, "Let's go." Listen no more. ”
Mike didn't ask why he didn't listen, and just left.
And at the scene of the defense, Kent Heaney had to continue. was interrupted by Giovanni.
"Mr. Kentheheaney is exaggerating that although we have the responsibility to lead the world, the American dream is not to go bankrupt and then our property is bought by a large group. The first thing we should do should be to give our community, our residents, the opportunity to develop and self-actualize. That's the American dream. The obligation of the agricultural group is to lead the direction of agricultural development, but this direction is definitely not a constant merger and acquisition. In my opinion, we should use fiscal subsidies to strengthen the resilience of small farms or family farms through insurance, and the government should increase the analysis of agricultural markets to guide farmers to avoid market risks......"
As he spoke, he noticed that Kenthini's face suddenly turned pale, and then he collapsed to the ground.
There was a round of exclamations and some confusion at the venue, but it was quickly calmed down by the security guards.
On the podium, the first to react was Kent Heaney's campaign team. They've already had this experience twice.
Giovanni had heard twice about Kent Heaney's illness, but this was the first time he had seen it firsthand. He was also surprised. When he came to his senses, he knew that he should show proper concern at this time. So he stepped out of the pulpit and walked briskly over to Kent Heaney, with a proper anxiety on his face.
However, Kentheheney was already surrounded by his team, and the organizers were involved in the rescue. Kent Heaney was surrounded by people who couldn't even walk in.
Giovanni walked behind the crowd and couldn't see Kentheini's condition, but heard someone whispering: "Not breathing, but having a heartbeat, need to be on the spot, let people disperse immediately." Mr. Senator needs more air. ”
When the organizers heard this, they hurriedly dispersed. And Giovanni finally saw Kent Heaney's situation outside. I saw him clenching his teeth, his eyes closed, his face bloodless, his lips were blue, and he was lying motionless on the ground. He turned around and asked his team to join the rescue. But was politely rejected by Kent Hea's people.
Knowing that this was big news, the reporters in the venue rushed to the podium and took pictures on the periphery with security guards and people from Kentheahirney. Some cameras have left images of Kent Heaney at this time. Journalists also saw someone performing CPR on Kent Heaney. Now, they are even more excited.
If this Kent Heaney dies on this occasion, then their news will be easy to sell.
Unfortunately, Kent Heaney didn't get what they wanted. They soon saw that Kent Heaney was able to breathe with a few coughs. But Kent Heaney's eyes were only open for a moment, and then he tilted his head and passed out again.
At this point, Kentheaney was rescued, but there could be no more debate, the organizers called an ambulance and carried Kentheaney away.
But anyone with a sharp eye noticed a black thing hanging from Kent Heaney's stretcher. Journalists know that it was a wireless receiver. They knew right away that there was something wrong with it. Sure enough, when they looked closely, Kent Heaney had a black stuff stuffed into one side of his ear, like a headphone.
And not only journalists see. Some sharp-eyed viewers also saw it.
Some of you will remember that former President George W. Bush used it in televised debates. That's when they give the best possible answers to the questions they might be asked in advance, and then the intelligence team in the background gives a radio cue for the candidate to answer better.
That's also a deception.
This live TV debate was like a farce. The farce ended early amid the departure of the mourning Kent Heanine team and the whispers of the audience.
And all this has nothing to do with Link. What he had to do had already been done. The outcome is not something he can control.
He soon returned to HSD State. The next two days will see some news about Kent Heais, but no media will be able to say good things about him. For the first time, Giovanni's approval rating exceeded 50 percent in the run-up to the poll. It can be said that the road to the election of Kent Heini this time has been ruined in his hands.
With such a result, he no longer pays attention to this matter. Even more worthy of his attention is the winemaking work at the Ozette farm.
With all the dedication, the winemaking work at Ozette Farm is going well.
Before all the grapes in Ozette were made, the predicted cold wave did not arrive. But the U.S. Weather Service has officially issued a cold wave warning. It is said that a cold spell is likely to occur across the United States in the coming week.
Albert was still tired after a day off, but he left right away because he still had work to do with other clients.
Link, on the other hand, traveled south to California with Jessica Benis and arrived at Elk Grove.
Jessica's home is in Wilton, a small town on the outskirts of Elk Grove. Her mother runs this small wine estate. However, instead of his son-in-law, he is going to talk to Jessica's father about cooperation.
Jessica's experiments at Ozette were very successful. In the glass greenhouse, the zombie fungus she provides is very strong in killing those grape diseases and insects, and the virus is very specific to the fungus. It has been tested and proven to be a highly effective and harmless pest control method.
With this experiment as a foundation, Link became interested in her father's research. Jessica drove him to her father's lab.
Florin Benis's laboratory is also located in the small town of Wilton. However, the so-called laboratory is actually a workshop built out of iron sheets on the farm.
Florin Benis should have been notified that Link, a potential investor, was coming. As Jessica's car turned into the lab clearing, Link saw the middle-aged man with myopic glasses thicker than the bottom of a beer bottle.
He seemed in good spirits, after Jessica introduced the two. He invited Link to visit the lab.
Link saw the sign hanging outside the warehouse: California Agricultural Services Laboratories. Compared with the condition of the laboratory, how to look at it and feel happy.
The lab is really not big. It looks like a warehouse from the outside, but it's very tidy inside.
However, since those fungi and viruses can be purified and expanded, it is impossible for the laboratory to be too rudimentary.
There are a number of sealed canisters attached to metal tubes in the laboratory. These sealed canisters are monitored by some instruments.
Florin Benis explains: "This is our seed breeding workshop. The required microorganisms are isolated from the laboratory and then incubated in this tank. Then we can get the microorganisms we need. ”
Link didn't really understand that. It is not for nothing that microbiology is a separate discipline.
The whole laboratory, including the workshop I just saw, is not very big. Florin seems to have only two experimental assistants, and looks at them more like workers than experimenters in the true sense of the word.
The equipment in the laboratory is not complete, or not advanced. Centrifuges, oscillating incubators, incubators, high-powered microscopes, brands of those instruments, he had been exposed to since he was in high school. The price of experimental equipment that can be touched by high school students will definitely not be high. The equipment used with these instruments is not very high-end.
