No sooner had they walked out of the studio than Wesley Powell of Livingstone PR and Ralph Alfie of Barton Boggs PR Consulting came up with a helping hand, with Powell giving two thumbs up and the others giving a round of applause.

"Mr. Zhang, it's great, watching you talk on stage really reminds me of the era of the election campaign."

Ralph Alfie, who served as press secretary to former U.S. President Ronald Reagan and now works in the same business on K Street, knows all about Powell, and as he walks to the elevator with his charter, he taunts: "Willis, don't talk big, you lost badly that time." ”

Wesley Powell glanced back and smiled casually, "Who hasn't lost, that's normal." It didn't matter to me whether my employer was elected or not, as long as I did what I had to do, and it turned out that the defeat did not affect my reputation. ”

The charter took a sip of the mineral water handed by the assistant and asked with interest: "Running for Senate or Representative?" ”

"Six years ago, in the New Jersey gubernatorial campaign, all the polls showed that my employer was the best choice to win the governorship, but when the scandal broke out at a critical moment, the rivals clung to it, and the approval rating plummeted.

Wesley-Powell hesitated for a moment, then took out a photo and a pen from his arms, and said expectantly: "Mr. Zhang, I know that it is not appropriate for me to do this, but please sign for me for God's sake and write a few words of encouragement." ”

's bust photo, the charter was ridiculous. The general asked suspiciously, "Mr. Powell." Do you want my signature? ”

"My daughter adores you so much. Her name is Annabel, she is 16 years old, she lives with my ex-wife, and I can take her out for a nice weekend, it's all up to you. ”

An incompetent father, too bloody.

The charter felt funny, but still wrote a few words of encouragement on the back of the photo.

"Thank you very much." He raised his hand. Wesley-Powell, however, was grateful, and carefully blew the ink to make sure it was dry before clipping it into his notebook.

Ralph Alfie said with a smirk: "Something like this will definitely happen next, Mr. Zhang, don't be surprised by this. ”

"I'm not an entertainment star."

"But now you're more popular than an entertainment star."

"Really?"

"There's no doubt about that," Ralph Alfila explained, "There are many accomplished scientists in the United States, and there are many accomplished young scientists in the United States, but there are not many scientists who are young and accomplished and at the same time so rich." ”

His words made Willis Powell suddenly remember something, and he motioned for the driver to drive. While saying: "Mr. Zhang, in order for you to participate in the talk show just now. There are a lot of things that we haven't said, like what Mr. President invited you to the White House. ”

The charter knowingly asked, "For what?" ”

"Mr. Zhang, whether you want to or not, admit it or not, you have been involved in the most confusing presidential election in the history of the United States. And what has happened in the past week or so has a direct impact on whether Mr. President can be re-elected. ”

Ralph Alfie pulled out a stack of newspapers from under his seat and introduced them one by one: "This is this morning's Tribune, Democratic presidential candidate Clinton and his partner lashed out at the incompetence of the current administration, this is a statement made by independent presidential candidate Ross, this is what Democratic Senator Bowman said while canvassing for Clinton...... They are all taking advantage of the oolong incident and trying to win the election campaign with it. ”

Seeing that the charter frowned, he continued: "The current president is undoubtedly a diplomatic genius, and when he took office, he was in office just in time for the fall of the Berlin Wall and the situation in the world changed. Send troops to Panama and cut through the mess with a quick knife. In the face of the Gulf crisis caused by Iraq's invasion of Kuwait, he handled it properly, and the coalition forces gathered in the Gulf, winning in a measured manner, and the United States did not have too much burden on the post-war military expenditure. Thanks to his good handling of diplomacy, his approval rating once reached a record-breaking 89%!

However, in domestic affairs, the president has achieved nothing, not only carrying the blame for the Reagan administration, but also breaking his promise not to raise taxes. Although raising taxes was not his idea, he had advocated reducing government spending in order to eliminate the fiscal deficit, but Congress demanded a tax increase, and finally had to agree to tax increases under pressure from Congress, so that popular popularity plummeted, especially among Republican voters, and it did not even recover. ”

Willis-Powell added, "Not only did he catch up with last year's recession, but he caught up with the Los Angeles race riots this spring. What's more, the biggest spoiler in the history of the U.S. election also caught up with him. Although his fundraising ability is very strong, his campaign is very high, the Democratic Party is in a state of insecurity, there are no big names, and there has never been a president who has won a war, but there is a lot of variability. ”

"Spoiler?"

"That's what I just said about independent presidential candidate Ross Perrotte, who is 72nd on the list of the richest people in the United States, with a net worth of $5 billion. There has been no shortage of rich candidates in previous presidential elections, but there are very few who are as rich as him, only a few such as Rockefeller. ”

"People look at the rich as they look at the poor with colored glasses, and as far as I know, it's very difficult for the super-rich to win the votes of the average voter."

Ralph Alfie shook his head and patiently explained: "Perrott is not your average super-rich, he didn't sit back and enjoy his success, he was completely self-made, starting as a salesman and getting rich through personal struggle. You must have heard of the American Dream, where people advocate individual struggle, and being able to get rich from nothing is the perfect embodiment of the American Dream, so Perrott is a capable and intelligent person in the eyes of voters. ”

The charter asked, "But he has no political experience?" ”

"It doesn't matter whether you have political experience or not, it is very common in the United States to govern from business or from politics to business, managing the country is like doing business, you may not be able to make money by managing the country, but people who can make money can often manage the country, this is the consensus of all Americans."

Wesley-Powell pulled out a magazine with Perrott's face on it and continued, "It's like you're not only a successful entrepreneur, but also an accomplished scientist." Perrott was not only a successful businessman, but he was also the only American hero of all successful businessmen in the United States.

Not the kind of John F. Kennedy or Bush who was awarded for his country's war service, or McCain's kind of prisoner of war camp who was beaten every day for his country, but Rambo-style hero who was able to stand up and do earth-shattering work when the government was incompetent. ”

Later, when the United States was in the United States, he was in college, and there was very little domestic coverage of this, and he was not very interested in politics, but he knew that Clinton had the last laugh, but he had never heard of such a rich and prestigious spoiler.

NB Electric's lawsuit is marathon, and the lawsuit is likely to take three to five years, which will inevitably involve the next U.S. government. And the big one-man incident caused by the US Congress and law enforcement agencies has brought a series of variables to the already confusing general election.

Looking at his thoughtful look, Willis Powell smiled and said, "Perrott graduated from the Naval Academy like Carter, so it can be said that they are alumni. In the Iranian hostage crisis, the president's alumni were helpless and had to negotiate diplomatically, and Perrott was not that patient, and although he was not a government official, two employees of his company were also taken hostage.

Seeing that the government had no substantive action, he simply paid for it himself, organized a mercenary, secretly entered Iran, and rescued the two hostages. This stark contrast immediately caused a global sensation and made him an American hero overnight. By contrast, the Gulf War, which the incumbent president won, is nothing to hero-worshipping voters, especially younger voters.

He ran as an independent candidate for the presidency, winning over many voters in both parties, including balancing the federal budget, fighting drugs, opposing outsourcing, environmental protection, and coercive regulation and free trade. He told people that the government of this country is in trouble, the two existing political parties are rotten to the point of decay, and reform must be carried out, and the responsibility for reform falls on his shoulders.

Because of economic problems, the current president's approval rating continues to decline; Democratic candidate Clinton was caught up in an extramarital affair scandal, and everyone thought he was expected to be president, and in the May polls, his approval rating was on par with the candidates of the two major parties. By June, he was leading the polls with an approval rating of 39 percent, compared to 31 percent for the incumbent president and 25 percent for Clinton! ”

It is conceivable that the oolong incident will make Bush Sr.'s approval rating hit a new low?

Inexplicably involved in the U.S. election, the charter secretly complained bitterly, and was silent for a while before shaking his head and saying with a wry smile: "Things have happened, and it is difficult for Mr. President to recover the impact." ”

"You can't do nothing, can you?"

"What's the point of meeting once, telling a few jokes, taking a few pictures?"

"At least it will help improve his image in the minds of the electorate."

He investigates his company, his lab, and even his colleagues without any evidence, and he has to cooperate with him in a play. In the name of the President of the United States, I cannot refuse the invitation, because it is not only related to NB Electric's business in the United States, but also a manifestation of respect for the United States Government.

is really a cunning politician, the charter scolded secretly, and pretended to laugh lightly: "Isn't it just a play, I know what to do." (To be continued......)
