Lexington's investigation results made Li Mu breathe a sigh of relief, the brake system of the car itself is indeed a bit of a problem, but the cause is the natural wear and tear of the parts, and the driver's problem is also very big, although the driver named Spencer categorically denied it, but the medical records of Kentucky State Hospital show that Spencer was drunk when he was taken to the hospital, although limited to technical means can not prove how much Spencer drank, but drunk driving is certain.

This Lexington is not the Lexington that fired the first shot of the American Revolutionary War, but the city of Lexington, Kentucky, there are many places in the United States called Lexington, almost every state has one, or several.

"Drunk driving caused an accident, resulting in one death and one injury, and crashed into a wall, but this guy only broke a few ribs, it's really a big life..."Li Mu couldn't help but sigh.

Wait, something seems wrong.

Although the wall that Spencer crashed was a wooden wall, it seems to objectively prove the safety of Junma Motor Company's products. This is indeed a problem.

If no one was killed in this incident, then Li Mu would definitely not let go of such an opportunity, now the situation is different, the accident caused one death and one injury, and the two families are in extreme grief, so Li Mu can't give up this heart, this is disrespectful to the deceased.

Although there is no saying in Western society that "the dead are greater", there is also a custom of respecting the deceased, which is not about geography, but the good side of human nature that plays a role.

"We're prepared to sue Spencer for lying and slandering, and while it may end up not coming to fruition, it can turn the public eye around, and after a while, no one will pay attention to these things anymore." Apollo was prepared to defend the reputation of the Horse Motor Company through judicial proceedings.

Because there are no regulations regulating the behavior of drivers, it is difficult to convict Spencer.

If there were a Traffic Act now, there would be many charges that could be prosecuted, such as drunk driving, reckless driving, endangering public safety in a dangerous way, and so on.

Spencer can only be prosecuted for lying and slander now, and it won't work very well, and given that Spencer has the support of the Democratic Party, the final outcome is likely to be a fine and no jail time.

Regarding this point, Li Mu is also helpless, the current legal process is like this, unless Li Mu sends a few people to kill Spencer directly, it is not easy to get Spencer punished.

"No, we will not prosecute, in the name of Junma Group, we will send a copy of "Safety Instructions" to all Junma car owners, remind all car owners not to drink and drive, and remind them to remember to maintain their cars, and at the same time tell "Autohome" to let them cooperate with us in publicity." Since the final result is not satisfactory, then Li Mu will not toss, there is a wrong, there is a debtor, after a while, someone will naturally clean up Spencer.

As a responsible large enterprise, we must always keep in mind that for the sake of our customers, the customers of Junma Automobile Company are all kinds of local tyrants, otherwise they can't afford to buy a car, Li Mu is now most worried about affecting the reputation of Junma Automobile, compared with this, everything else can be slow.

If the company really wants to put Spencer in the dock, it will more or less chill other owners of the horses, and if it really comes to that point, the goal of the Democratic Party will be achieved.

"I think we can be a little tougher." Apollo wanted to make meritorious deeds, and if he didn't show his loyalty at this time, it would have to wait until when.

"What we need now is not tough, and the Horse Group does not need to establish a ruthless image, even if we don't sue Spencer, will anyone despise our Horse Group because of this?" Compared with the overall image of Junma Group, Li Muzhen did not take this matter to heart.

All large enterprises in this era want to establish an image of being strong and fearless and not afraid of any challenges, but Li Mu does not want to do this.

Li Mu's ideal horse group can't look like a hedgehog, full of aggression all the time, facing the world with the spikes on his body.

In the past, the Horse Group was like a hedgehog, and when it encountered a provocation from the Texans, the Horse Group would teach the Texans to be a man in minutes with a thunderous momentum.

Such an image is not bad, if Li Mu is also white, then Li Mu may be even more excessive, but after driving the Japanese out of New York, Li Mu began to realize that such unscrupulousness may leave a legacy in the future.

Therefore, Li Mu now wants to establish a responsible and caring image for the Junma Group, which may not look so scary, but it is like a net, which will unconsciously bind people and cannot break free.

Changing the image is a long-term project, it takes long-term and uninterrupted efforts to change the inherent impression in people's hearts, and now is an opportunity, through the comparison with the Democratic Party, Li Mu may be able to carry out a "whitewashing" of the Zhengma Group.

After dealing with Spencer, there is one more person to settle the score: Kenneth Cummins, the editor-in-chief of the Les Echoes.

Dealing with Kenneth Cummins must not be as hasty as dealing with Spencer, after all, Spencer's influence is limited and will not have much impact on the Horse Group, and Kenneth Cummins controls the mouthpiece of public opinion, and may cause another storm against the Horse Group at any time, Li Mu can't let this happen again.

Li Mu's first call was to Samuel Tilden.

"Mr. Governor, I heard that you are well acquainted with Kenneth Cummins, the editor-in-chief of The Echo." Li Mu didn't waste time, and came up and talked about things directly.

"It's not very familiar, it's just a nod of friends." Samuel Tilden's voice was calm, and it seemed that he had been waiting for this call for a long time.

Unlike Hayes, who has already gone on a national speaking tour, Samuel Tilden is still in New York at this time, and he will start his national speaking tour in half a month, which is just a staggered time with Hayes.

In those days, the means of propaganda were still limited, and Hayes and Samuel could not have a televised debate, not even a radio debate, so their canvassing operation had to be carried out in the most primitive way, city by city, which may seem a bit stupid, but there was no way to do it.

In fact, the effect is still very good, after all, ordinary people do not have many opportunities to face a future president directly.

"Come on, if it weren't for the support of your Democratic Party, would Kenneth Cummins dare to point fingers at the Horse Group? Are you insulting my IQ, or are you insulting your own? Li Mu was unceremonious, and revealed Samuel's old background in one sentence.

"Oh, Ream, you really wronged me this time, I really don't know what's going on, I'll ask Stephen later, and then I'll call you back, okay?" In the face of the strong Li Mu, Samuel couldn't pretend.

A presidential candidate may be president, but a presidential candidate is nothing until he becomes president.

Even if he is successfully elected president, in the face of capitalists like Li Mu, the president must pretend to be a grandson when he should pretend to be a grandson, after all, capitalists represent votes and are the parents of politicians.

Although the Democratic Party and the Republican Party are in the same boat, in fact, everyone has a tacit understanding and does things within the rules, so even if Li Mu supports the Republican Party, he still has to give face to give, otherwise once he tears his face, God knows what a guy like Li Mu can do.

Stephen is Samuel's running mate, director of Samuel's campaign office, and Samuel's aide, and if Samuel is elected, Stephen will become vice president of the United States.

"Well, I'll wait for your news." Li Mu was noncommittal, and hung up the phone very simply.

Samuel didn't know what he was thinking, Li Mudu had already hung up the phone, and Samuel still held the phone and was stunned for a while.

"This guy has relented?" Stephen was next to Samuel, and seeing Samuel in a daze, he couldn't help but ask.

"Soft? How is it possible..."Samuel shook his head and smiled bitterly, anyone could be soft, but Li Mu was the most unlikely.

As rivals, the Democrats have been keeping an eye on the Republican Party.

To be honest, at first Samuel didn't expect that it would be Rutherford Burchard Hayes who would run for president on behalf of the Republican Party, among all the five original candidates, Hayes had the worst resume and the least support, but it was because of Li Mu's support that Hayes was able to win.

Samuel has never underestimated Li Mu, who was able to build the behemoth of the Horse Group from scratch in a few years, and Hayes asked himself if he couldn't do it himself.

People are always tolerant enough for successful people, so even if Li Mu was a little disrespectful in his words, Samuel didn't take it to heart.

"If you don't accept it, then let Kenneth continue to break the news, I want to see how long he can hold on." Stephen was very hostile to Li Mu.

In Kenneth's hands, there are indeed some revelations related to Li Mu and the Junma Group, but breaking the news is like an atomic bomb, when it doesn't explode, it is the most powerful time, and once it is made public, all the deterrence will disappear.

"Tell Kenny to let him be a little more restrained lately." Samuel still didn't want to tear up his face with Li Mu after all.

In fact, Samuel also knows very well that Li Mu must also have a lot of black materials about the Democratic Party in his hands, after all, the Democratic Party's ass is not clean, if you take a magnifying glass to find it slowly, then problems abound.

The biggest problem of the Democratic Party at present is still the animal slaves.

Although slavery had been nominally abolished in the United States, slaves did not disappear in particular on the vast plantations of the South, but continued to exist in a new way, "hired labor".

In fact, signing contracts and so on is a cover-up, and these slaves are still engaged in the heaviest labor, and they still do not get paid anything, and many of them do not even know that slavery has been abolished in the United States.

In addition to slaves, the funding situation of the Democratic Party is also a problem.

Before Samuel announced his candidacy for president, the Democratic National Committee often received donations from unknown sources, and the direction of their use was not public, and many people knew that the money came from Europe, but they did not know which country it came from.

In fact, if you understand the history of the United States, then the way of this money is obvious, after all, only a few countries in the world do not like the United States, and at the same time, they must have the ability to toss these things, and the answer is about to come out.

Although Li Mu has not yet launched a general offensive against the Democratic Party, Samuel knows that if these things are investigated carefully, they will definitely be able to find out, and if Li Mu does everything at that time, the final result will be that everyone can only lose both.

Samuel doesn't want to merge with the Republicans now, the key is to really get on fire, and it is estimated that the Democrats will not get much cheaper, this reality is really embarrassing.

"If you stop now..."Stephen hesitated, not only wanting to kill Li Mu with a hammer, but also worried that he would suffer if he didn't die by beating the snake, so he was very conflicted.

"Stop for a moment, but keep collecting materials, send a few people to protect Kenny, and prevent people from jumping off the wall." Although Samuel was superficially soft, he was not completely convinced.

In the evening, Samuel dialed Li Mu's phone.

"Reem, things have been figured out, it was a trainee editor who poked it out before, and I've dealt with the trainee editor, I hope it won't affect our friendship." Samuel has a habit of finding someone to take the blame.

In general, it is enough to get such an answer.

However, it is obvious that Li Mu is not satisfied, but Li Mu did not express it directly on the phone, but only expressed his dissatisfaction with the Republican Party in passing.

"Mr. Governor, whether the Democrats or the Republicans win in the final election, we have to move on, so until then, I hope we can all exercise restraint and focus on normal competition, so that even if we lose, we can have a clear conscience." Li Mu's attitude is obvious, even if your Democratic Party wins, I am still the boss of the Junma Group, so we all save some face for each other, so that we can see each other in the future.

"Of course, your horse group is in full swing now, and no one dares to despise her, so don't worry, I will restrain my subordinates, after all, we are not enemies." Samuel is also obedient, and he is also very good at secretly changing concepts, and unconsciously classifies himself and Li Mu on the same front.

"It's best that way, life has to go on no matter what, isn't it?" Suzuki's consideration is not complicated, and sometimes it is even a little simple.

From Li Mu's point of view, many times doing things is really simple.
