On the way back to Detroit, John drove while telling his wife about his concerns about food and drug safety. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"It's horrible." It was the first time Adele had heard of the "sulfonamide poisoning incident", and she nervously asked John, "Is the diet pill also unsafe?" ”

"Are you losing weight?" Although Adele's figure is a little plump, John never thinks his wife is fat.

"I recently took a weight loss class." Perhaps thinking that her husband cared too little about her, Adele gave John a blank look, "The medicine was recommended to me by Mrs. Greenwood, and it wasn't long before I took it. ”

John met Mrs. Greenwood, a professor at the University of Michigan and the chief chemist of a pharmaceutical company, at Ella Jr.'s birthday party.

"Don't just eat this kind of thing, it's a bit toxic." John admonished his wife, "And you're not fat." ”

"I'm not fat, I weighed two pounds last year." Adele touched her stomach and sighed.

John wasn't going to argue with Adele about this kind of issue, he knew that losing weight would always be a topic of concern for women, no matter what era it was. But he really didn't know that there was a special weight loss institution here.

"When did you take the weight loss class, how do I not know?" He asked, a little curious.

"As recently as January, I hadn't been there a few times." Adele explained: "This house in Detroit has just opened, and it has been there in New York for a long time. ”

Sure enough, it's still a woman's money to make. John was a little emotional, but he still reminded Adele: "It's best not to take diet pills, just eat a reasonable diet and exercise moderately." ”

"Okay." Adele secretly touched her stomach sadly and sighed again.

Seeing his wife's cute expression, John couldn't help but "tease" her, "If you don't lose it, I like your fleshy appearance." ”

"I like it too!" Little Ella, who was still dozing off just now, didn't know when she woke up and began to pat her mother's ass.

"Nasty!" Adele patted her husband in disgust, then turned her head to scare her daughter and said, "If you make trouble again, the family will start to eat vegetarian tomorrow." ”

After talking and laughing all the way, John's family returned to Detroit. Over the next few days, John became very busy again.

The Harvard Business School research team finally came up with a preliminary plan for corporate management reform, but the company's top management, including Walter, was very unoptimistic. They feel that this plan is too complicated, and once it is implemented, the company's management will definitely be in a mess first.

John also knew that it would be difficult for these front-line executives to execute this plan. But he still struggled to convince them to agree to use the Los Angeles branch as a pilot to see how effective the reform plan would be.

In order to ensure the smooth implementation of the plan, John also took the opportunity to keep McNamara's group in the company. If you don't take this opportunity to tie McNamara tightly, then John will have water in his head. He believes that the management reforms these people are making in Los Angeles will take the company by surprise.

By the time John had finished his Los Angeles branch pilot, he finally had the time to take care of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act.

When John asked him about the discussion of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act in Congress, Lawrence looked a little serious: "Are you ready?" ”

"Ready? What to prepare? John was a little baffled by him.

Seeing John's dumb look, Lawrence knew that he was thinking too much: "I thought you were going to run in the congressional elections at the end of the year." ”

"Elections?" John himself was taken aback, "Why do you say that?" ”

"Why else do you care about that? That's the FDA's business, what does it have to do with you? Lawrence asked rhetorically.

"How can it be okay. Food and drug safety is closely related to each and every one of us. "John suddenly has a sense of social responsibility.

"You really don't have that plan?" Lawrence probed again, "It's not impossible to operate it well." ”

"Forget it, the company's affairs are too busy, I don't have the time to talk to a bunch of old men every day." John categorically refused.

Lawrence also felt that John was not politically ready to do so. Although John's performance in Zhang Luo's "China Aid Volunteer Air Team" was very impressive. His self-assertion also strengthened William and Lawrence's determination to bring John into politics in the future.

But once you get off the field, there is no turning back, so it's better to be cautious. Anyway, John was going to get to this point sooner or later, so there was no need to be in such a hurry. So Lawrence didn't continue to dwell on the issue of his candidacy.

However, Lawrence also has to admit that this entry point that John chose by mistake is very good. This little guy doesn't have a high political IQ, but his intuition is quite sensitive.

Lawrence, a former veteran lobbyist, knows all too well about the bill. In the past few years, he has helped those food and drug companies lobby members of Congress, and it can be said that this bill has not been introduced for a long time, and Lawrence is also one of the "culprits".

However, since the "sulfonamide poisoning incident" occurred last year, he has already had a premonition that the passage of this law has become the general trend.

Much of the aftermath of the poisoning is now being blocked by businesses and the media. It only takes one person to stand up and light the fuse and let the public know that because the current law does not explicitly prohibit the sale of dangerous, toxic and untested drugs, Samuel Masenki, the owner of the drug company that sells toxic drugs, is likely not to be held legally responsible in this incident, it will surely cause an uproar in the United States. At that time, no lawmaker will dare to veto this new bill under the pressure of public opinion.

Lawrence thought John was a good fit to be the one to light the fuse. Now that John's fame is confined to the upper class, what a great opportunity to make a political presence in public.

Once the bill is passed, basically everyone in the United States will benefit. If John were to be the driving force behind this far-reaching bill, it would be a very considerable political asset.

As for some of the food and drug industry bosses who have been offended by this, there is no need to worry about John's status at all. Large companies like Coca-Cola are themselves concerned about the safety of their products, and the new law will have little impact on them. The hardest hit are small and medium-sized enterprises, so does John need to be afraid of them? If you don't take the initiative to trouble them, those "black-hearted businessmen" should be thankful.

Lawrence told John in detail about the problems encountered in the process of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act in the course of the congressional proceedings in recent years, and came up with a specific plan of action.

"Newspaper articles, radio interviews, speeches to Congress?" John was intimidated by Lawrence's plan.

Originally, he just wanted to mention it at a regular meeting of Freemasonry, or write a letter to some political bigwigs to push it. Suddenly discovering that Lawrence had asked him to be the one who lifted the lid on the "sulfonamide poisoning incident", John felt a little guilty.

"Only by letting more of the public know the truth of the matter can we push the bill to pass as soon as possible." Lawrence replied.

"Can't you do it with someone else? For example, William. John was still a little resistant to this kind of showmanship.

"This kind of political prestige only works for a rookie like you. William has been a senator for so many years, and if he wanted to brush it, he would have brushed it a long time ago. Lawrence unceremoniously rejected John's proposal.

"But there are too many people who will not offend. It's not just one or two, it's the entire food, drug and cosmetics industry. John was still a little worried.

"You've even stepped on Henry Ford, and you're afraid of those who sell inferior sausages and counterfeit medicines!" Lawrence couldn't help but be angry, "What can they do with you, poison your dinner!" ”

Seeing that the old man was furious, John had no choice but to pinch his nose and not gnaw. Well, anyway, the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act was finally introduced, and Director Campbell, who pushed it, didn't do anything about it.

"I'll check with William again for the specific operation." Lawrence waved his hand and decided: "You prepare first, and it's best to communicate with the victim's family in person." When the time comes, how to sensationalize, so that the public can be more impressed. ”

Over the next few weeks, poor John was whipped like a mule by William and Lawrence with a small leather whip behind his ass, and he traveled to various newspapers and radio stations to give interviews calling for the passage of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act as soon as possible. The publicity for this political show worked very well, and John soon became a household name in the United States.

Don't look at his appearance during this time, only John himself knows the pain in his heart. "It's really tiring to do a political show, how did things come to be like this." John vowed that he would never want to be in the public spotlight again.
