Chapter 432: Who to Support

Pester?

Of course Li Lin doesn't want to be entangled, he is just a flat-headed ordinary person, and entanglement with a behemoth like the CIA is not good for him, but it is all bad.

"But the problem is that the CIA has already found me." Li Lin communicated with him, "You can also see it, the CIA doesn't know how long it has been spying on me, and even the archives have been established." ”

"It's normal."

"That's the kind of virtue in the C.I.A., and a lot of people who have just come to work in the United States are under their surveillance," Madridin whispered. ”

"This surveillance doesn't mean they suspect you of being a spy, they're just out of their domineering style."

"It doesn't matter who you are, whether you're a parliamentarian or a rich person, we always like to be watched, like rats in a dark gutter, and they stink."

Rats in the dark gutter!

Li Lin couldn't help but be happy, the CIA is really like that.

On the surface, the CIA promised the U.S. Congress that it would not spy on Americans and would protect Americans' freedom, but secretly, they would spy on Americans regardless of whether you were the United States or not.

Similarly, on the surface, the CIA does not have the right to assassinate, but secretly, the CIA has orchestrated more than 600 assassinations, and its targets have even been frantically aimed at leaders of other countries.

Every time a congressman criticizes the CIA, the CIA always assures the congressman that they will never do it, but afterwards, their assurance becomes a pile of shit.

Even in Hollywood movies, the CIA is more villainous than decent. Many independent filmmakers take pleasure in ridiculing the CIA in their films.

"So that's it?" Li Lin groaned for a while, still feeling a little unwilling in his heart.

"Of course not."

Madridin shook his head and said, "We have to protest to the CIA and let the CIA give you an explanation." However, judging from their usual style, I am afraid that the explanation they give you will not satisfy you. ”

"Also, if you let the CIA stop harassing you in the future, I recommend that you befriend some congressmen, who still have some deterrent effect on the CIA."

"And they're happy to befriend a rich man like you."

Honourable!

Li Lin's eyes flashed.

He looked at Madridin and thought carefully in his heart, and there was some truth in what Madridin said. No matter where you are, you will inevitably deal with people at the political level.

At home, he works with the second and third generations. For a safe environment, and those second and third generations are also powerful, he basically didn't get any harassment after becoming a shareholder, and even those other second generations had a tacit understanding and didn't pay attention to him.

abroad. It seems that he also needs to deal with people at the political level.

And this is inside. Undoubtedly, the best person to deal with is the president.

But the problem is that the president is not within his reach.

Don't look at him as a rich man now, with a net worth of billions of yuan, but in the United States, he is just a small businessman, and his assets may not even be comparable to the president of the United States.

Don't look at the appearance of the US president, who is extremely incorruptible. It seems that no bribes are taken, but actually. The president of the United States accepted bribes more ruthlessly than anyone else, but he was clever in his methods.

What is a clever method?

According to the information disclosed by "American Magazine", after leaving office, the president of the United States often goes to some large companies to give speeches and advisers.

It sounds normal, but the president's speech and advice are their own business, so how can it be related to bribery?

But according to the information revealed by the "American Magazine", the salary of the president's adviser is in the tens of millions of dollars a year, which is the absolute top salary.

Often, the president's adviser does not offer any favorable advice to the company, and they don't even have any intersection with the positioning of those large companies, just such a person who holds the position of consultant to several large companies.

As for the speech, it is even more absurd.

A certain oil company asked President Bush to give a speech after leaving office, and he gave a speech of several million dollars a time, dozens of speeches a year, and tens of millions of dollars in speech expenses directly to Bush.

After all, the president has a woolen relationship with oil companies.

But is this really a gift of money? Of course not, according to the commentary of American Magazine, President Bush has repeatedly developed policies favorable to oil companies during his tenure of office, even at the expense of waging war.

On the surface, it is said that it is for the interests of the United States, but President Bush has withstood the pressure when the anti-war tide is getting higher and higher.

To put it another way, in the Iraq war, who benefited the most from the high price of oil? Of course, it is the oil speculators in the United States, followed by the American oil companies, and President Bush's decision has no influence on the oil companies, and I am afraid that no one will believe it.

When he takes office and formulates policies that are favorable to oil companies, and after he leaves office, he goes to oil companies as a consultant and gives speeches.

In addition to this, there are also political donations.

Under U.S. law, members of Congress and presidents, as well as some officials, are eligible to receive government contributions, but according to the rules, they may not accept more than $100 in cash at a time.

However, in some of the scandals that have come to light, some U.S. lawmakers and presidents have frequently received donations from overseas politicians.

This part of the political donation is very secretive, and it is usually transferred through the secret accounts of the major banks, and the account number of the transfer is also the secret account of the bank, and no one can view these accounts except the directors of the bank.

The most important thing is that the amount of these funds is huge, ranging from a few million dollars to tens of millions of dollars, and the vast majority of them come from the major wealthy people in the United States.

"Which councillor do you think is better?"

Li Lin asked softly.

"It's not one parliamentarian, it's the parliamentarian of which party." "U.S. lawmakers are divided into two parties, one is the Democratic Party and the other is the Republican Party. ”

"The Democratic Party represents the interests of the American middle class, as well as the interests of the migrant workers. Both intellectuals and white-collar workers are supporting the Democratic Party. ”

"And the Republican Party represents the interests of businessmen, and big groups, big corporations are their supporters."

"I asked Mr. Li Lin about you. You can support the Democratic Party as a celebrity because your Foreign Artists Club is owned by the Actors' Union, which in turn is owned by the Coalition of Actors, which is the largest trade union under the Democratic Party. ”

"And you can also support the Republican Party as a businessman, because Universal Films, the owner of Universal Movies, and Coca-Cola, the owner of Universal Movies, are strong supporters of the Republican Party, so it is better for you to support the Republican Party. After all, the current President Bush represents the will of the Republican Party, that is, the big bloc. ”

But the problem is that in a few years, Obama will be in power.

Li Lin muttered in his heart.

Every time the economy is booming, the Republican Party is strong, and every time there is an economic crisis, the Democratic Party is strong.

The recession that followed the Coolidge boom was when Roosevelt came to power. The economic crisis triggered by the subprime mortgage crisis was followed by Obama coming to power.

And they all belong to the Democratic Party.

But......

Li Lin thought about it, and it seemed that he had no choice.

The Democrats represent the interests of the middle class, and they always limit the flow of capital and force other countries to raise welfare. so that capital can flow to the United States.

The Republican Party, on the other hand, pursues the freedom of capital. The hope is that capital can flow around the world and get a piece of the prosperity around the world.

From here, supporting the *Republican* Party is undoubtedly in his favor.

Quite simply, in 10 years, in order to win the support of Chinese Americans, the Republican Party took the initiative to go to the Chinese community to seek support, and promised Chinese Americans that once they came to power. It will improve the living conditions of Chinese Americans.

And Li Lin belongs to the Chinese, after coming to the United States. Naturally divided into Chinese-Americans, whether he wants to or not, in the eyes of others, he and Chinese-Americans are in a group.

"Republican party!" Li Lin said, "Who do you think I mainly support in the Republican Party?" ”

"Isn't President Bush the best?" "He's now the leader of the Republican Party, and a lot of my clients are supporting him and supporting him," Madridin said. ”

"Does he fancy me?" Li Lin asked.

Madridin is a very well-known barrister, and his clients are naturally wealthy.

"Does anyone suspect that they have less support?" Madridin asked rhetorically, "I can prepare you an invitation if you want." ”

"This is an invitation to a charity gala, and many wealthy people who support the Republican Party, some powerful figures in the Republican Party, including President Bush, will be in attendance."

This is an internal exchange meeting!

Li Lin's heart sank, and there was a special meaning in his eyes when he looked at Madrid.

Those who can get this kind of invitation may have a lot to do with the Communist Party and the Party.

"Don't get me wrong." Madridin hurriedly said: "It's just that some people asked me to pull some sponsorship for them, and you know, most of the clients of lawyers like me are rich people, so they are eyeing me." ”

Madridin had a sad face.

Li Lin said undeniably: "You help me prepare, I'll go and chat with the seniors, but now should you help me send these two away?" ”

The two staff members who had been silent all the time suddenly turned black and sent away? We didn't come to beg again, okay?

"Mr. Li Lin, we are here to sincerely invite you to join the big family of the United States, if you are not willing to immigrate, you can apply for a green card first, we can assure you that we will definitely serve you with the fastest speed and the most sincere attitude."

"Green card!"

Li Lin groaned for a moment.

There is a big difference between a green card and becoming a U.S. citizen, at least after having a green card, his activities in the United States will be much more convenient, and similarly, he does not need to give up his Chinese nationality, at least the immigration bureau will not come to him for dual citizenship if he has nothing to do.

If you don't check, I won't say it, everyone knows it. (To be continued......)
