571 Conduct

The bigger the scale, the more people are involved, and the more unexpected variables there are.

When the Junma Group was a small factory, everyone was able to work hard in one place, so the work efficiency was amazingly high.

Now the situation is different, the staff in the Hayes campaign office are not employees of the Junma Group, and the person who pays them wages is Hayes, although Li Mu has influence on them, but does not have a decisive influence, so there are many kinds of accidents.

On the night that the Echo newspaper published the fake news of Hayes, Li Mu and Hayes met at the Horse Building to discuss how to deal with the Echo's revelations and how to prevent similar incidents from happening again in the future.

"The Democrats' purpose is to muddy the waters, and their propaganda has been passive since the election, so now they have to find another way to try to regain the initiative by killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred... Although the fraud case will have an impact on your reputation, the impact is not as big as the Democrats imagined, so the most important thing for us at the moment is to establish a prevention mechanism to prevent such incidents from happening again. Li Mu gave Hayes a reassuring pill first, otherwise, it is estimated that Hayes will not be able to sleep tonight.

Compared with eliminating the impact, Li Mu attaches more importance to the establishment of a corresponding mechanism, so as to prevent the slightest problem and prevent the occurrence of pig teammates from dragging their feet.

"Can you tell me how you plan to undo the effects of this?" Hayes frowned, and he no longer had the calmness and openness he had when he appeared in public.

Relatively speaking, Hayes is much more nervous, after all, this is related to Hays's vital interests, and Hayes already knows how influential public opinion will be, so Hayes is very worried that this matter will become his Waterloo.

"The old man they found is Mexican..."Li Mu's simple words made Hayes frown.

In the United States, Mexicans have an even worse reputation than blacks.

There was a war between the United States and Mexico, and although Mexico was defeated and admitted, the United States had losses in the war after all, so this feud was settled.

Compared with the United States, Mexico's human resources can be described as abundant, but in recent years, although the United States has increased its efforts to attract immigrants from Europe, it has never targeted neighboring Mexico, and the rapid development of the United States has also made Mexicans envious, so many Mexicans will choose this "smuggling" method to come to the United States, work and live in the United States, so the attitude of Americans towards Mexicans is extremely disdainful, in the United States, "liars", "thieves", "scoundrels" are synonymous with Mexicans.

Unlike the smuggled Mexicans, although the status of blacks in the United States is low, black Americans are also Americans after all, even if the United States has abolished slavery, but in fact, even those Southerners who are most in favor of abolishing slavery have to admit that black slaves have made their own contributions to the development of the United States.

Against this backdrop, it is questionable how credible a Mexican's words are, so Li Mu does not think that the Democrats can deal a heavy blow to Hayes's popularity through this incident.

Of course, Hayes also understood this, so after Li Mu pointed out that the witness was Mexican, Hayes immediately put his mind at ease.

The focus is still on how to establish an effective prevention mechanism.

"The leak must be investigated to the end, the source of the leak must be found, and all those responsible must pay the price, otherwise there will be similar incidents in the future, and next time, I dare not guarantee that we will be so lucky." Li Mu is ready to kill chickens and monkeys, and only when he really makes some people feel pain can he attract their attention.

In a short period of time, it is not easy to establish an effective prevention mechanism, so Li Mu can only "use heavy codes in troubled times".

Fortunately, this accountability mechanism does not have to last forever, after all, the general election will be held at the end of the year, and after the general election, even the campaign office will cease to exist, and then these articles and provisions will no longer exist.

"I've asked people to investigate, no matter who is involved in this matter, I will never let him go." Hayes also gritted his teeth when he brought it up.

"Actually, this is a good thing, the problem is better now, than at a critical moment... In addition, I think it is necessary to remind you that the management of the staff of the campaign office must keep up. Li Mu thought about it, but couldn't help but ring the alarm bell for Hayes.

In the United States, there is also a saying that "one person attains the Tao, and the chicken and dog ascend to heaven", and the so-called "dragon merit" everyone thinks about it, so many people want to squeeze their heads into Hays's campaign office, once Hayes is successfully elected, then these people will be heroes, and maybe they will enter the White House with Hayes.

In fact, this kind of thing is a campaign, that is, many interests come together to work hard for something, and Hays, as the core of a sound office, has to do a good job of balancing the forces of all parties, so the staff in Hays's office is complex, and almost everyone has a background.

Li Mu understands the truth of "many people have mixed eyes", but before that, Li Mu did not remind Hayes, after all, this kind of thing is inconvenient for Li Mu to remind, and there is a suspicion of overstepping his authority.

Since ancient times, the higher the status of Hayes, the more Li Mu has to avoid suspicion, and he must bow down to what he can't perform, and take care of Hayes like a child.

"The composition of office workers is indeed a bit more complicated, and their purposes are different, some are for gilding, some are for gaining experience, and more are advocates for the interests of a certain group, so it is not easy to manage them, and I have been worrying about this matter." Hayes knows the status quo and knows that he has to make changes, but Hayes is also powerless now, which is like a snowball, when the snowball is big enough to push it, it is not enough to rely on manpower, but more on inertia.

"No matter how difficult it is, we have to do it firmly, there is no turning back, and you have already resigned as governor, so we have no way back." Li Mu put himself in Hayes's shoes.

Hayes really has no way out, but Li Mu's retreat is very wide, even if the Republican Party loses the election, Li Mu is still the boss of the Junma Group, and he is still one of the richest people in the United States, and no one can change this.

After talking to Pastor Rice, Hayes went back to put his campaign in order, and Hayes was responsible for removing the influence of Hayes.

To Li Mu's surprise, the Democratic Party attached much more importance to this scandal than Li Mu imagined, and at the end of September, Democratic congressmen openly proposed at a Senate meeting that in view of Hayes' dishonesty, they asked the Senate to disqualify Hayes from running for office.

On the issue of "honesty", the East and the West have very different attitudes.

Orientals were taught to be modest and polite when they were young, to be kind to others, to know how to think about others, and to learn to read words and feelings.

Of course, there is nothing wrong with the purpose of education, and the methods are good, but when such a person grows up, he will become sleek and able to do things, and if he uses a nice phrase to describe it, he will weave a white lie at the right time.

A lie is a lie, and even if it is a white lie, the focus should be on the lie, not on the good intentions.

Westerners are particularly strict about honesty, and compared with the Eastern world, Western society is more like a contract society, where people are responsible for what they say, and what they have said must be fulfilled, otherwise it is a matter of character.

And once a politician's character goes wrong, it often means the end of his political life.

In this respect, it is not unreasonable for the Democratic Party to demand that Hayes be disqualified on the grounds that he has a problematic character.

Although the Democrats hold a majority in the Senate, they are not yet able to hold an absolute majority, so it is not surprising that the Democrats' proposal was rejected.

The Democrats were not too disappointed by this result, and they did not expect to be able to beat Hayes to death with a stick through this incident.

However, this incident has also sounded the alarm bell for the Republican Party, and the Democratic Party is now in full swing, and if the Republican Party does not cheer up, then maybe it will really capsize in the gutter.

"La Repubblica published the full text of Martinez's interview in today's paper, and Martinez showed reporters his $20 bill... That's right, the one signed by Mr. Governor himself. Sami Larkin updated Li Mu on the latest developments.

With regard to banknotes, there is no legal provision in the U.S. Constitution that prohibits writing and drawing on banknotes.

After all, these banknotes were not printed by the U.S. government, but by government-authorized banks.

When Hayes was visiting a Mexican named Martinez, he wrote a message of blessing on a $20 note, signed his name, and gave the note to Martinez.

Now this $20 note has become evidence that the Democratic Party is slandering Hays.

"It's easy, get me 100 $20 bills tomorrow and have Haystone sign their names." Li Mu's bad taste flares up again, and he doesn't like to sign autographs, so let him kiss him enough.

"And tomorrow's press conference?" Sammy Larkin was not sure of Li Mu's intentions.

"According to the original plan..."Li Mu was still counting on turning over at the press conference, so he would definitely not waste this opportunity.

According to the original plan, ZAMA Group will hold a press conference tomorrow, with the same theme of condemning the Republican Party for fraud.

If Hayes were going to lose his candidacy because of this, Samuel Tilden didn't know how many times he would lose it.

Since the war of public opinion began, the Democratic Party and the "Echo" have been making up nonsense, not to mention Samuel Tilden's national tour speech, which is also lively, in fact, it has been following the rhythm of the Republican Party.

With rhythm is such a thing, if you can bring it, you can carry the whole audience, and if you can't bring it, it is the whole family crematorium, "Echo" is dedicated to following the footsteps of "Time Magazine", and compiling data is actually individual work.

It's a technical job.

At 9 a.m. the next morning, the press conference began on time.

Recently, the war of words between "The Echo" and "Time Magazine" has become more and more lively, and the people who do not know the truth are happy to watch the excitement, even if they cannot get the opportunity to ask questions, the press conference still attracts nearly 100 reporters to participate.

This lineup is a bit big, and Li Mu couldn't help but suspect when he walked into the press conference that all the reporters in New York might be here.

As is customary, the first question was asked by a Time reporter.

"One thing about that Martinez, I have to remind you that he is a Mexican... Of course, I don't mean to discriminate against Mexicans, I'm just trying to tell some people to remember to buy a train ticket for Martinez when he goes home. Li Mu swayed freely at the press conference, making jokes or something.

"You mean to say that the Democrats are also cheating this time, right?" The reporter of the newspaper Echo couldn't help but ask questions.

The law in the United States is like this, even though the reporters of the "Echo" newspaper are not treated by Li Mu, they still have the right to participate in the press conference, and no one can interfere with this.

"Although you didn't follow the rules, I'm still willing to answer this question..."Li Mu doesn't like unruly people, but since the reporter of "Echo" took the initiative to jump out, Li Mu didn't mind slapping his face in the face: "... I would like to remind you that what you say is good does not necessarily mean that you will be beautiful, and when Mr. Tilden was on a national tour, he had to make promises everywhere he went, and these promises were worthless, because Mr. Tilden had no chance of fulfilling them... As for whether the Democrats are playing favoritism, I don't know because I don't want to find a random person to be a scapegoat. ”

Li Mu's attitude is very obvious, the Democratic Party is not cheating on this matter, but has been doing it all along.

With this moral standard as the foundation, even if Hayes panics in this matter, he will not be beaten to death with a stick, after all, the Democratic Party has become accustomed to lying, and relatively speaking, Hayes who has only made a mistake once is more cute.

I really hope that the voters think the same way as Li Mu.

"Last question, Mr. Reem, the editor-in-chief of Time and Urban Beauty, both work in the Hayes campaign office, will this affect the reputation of these two newspapers?" The reporter of "Urban Beauty" is also very fierce, and he dares to ask any question.

"I believe in their professional ethics, so I'm not worried about this problem, Time Magazine and Urban Beauty are both more professional newspapers, we are not like a certain newspaper, we need to use gifts to increase sales, want to read our newspaper has to pay, so we have to be responsible for our own words." Li Mu accused the Democratic Party of fraud, although he did not say it explicitly, but he quietly blackened the Democratic Party.
