Chapter 156: The Last Despair

The helicopter was fast, and when Hillary Clinton looked at her watch again and saw that the time was approaching a quarter past 9, the roar of the propellers had already appeared overhead. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info calculated the time, it almost took more than 20 minutes from the discovery of the traffic jam to the arrival of the helicopter, which is quite amazing.

At this time, a bodyguard got into the car with a walkie-talkie in his hand, "Madam, the helicopter has arrived, where are we boarding?" ”

Where is it?

Everyone in the car suddenly discovered this problem, yes, where to board the plane?

This is the main city of New York, surrounded by high-rise buildings, billboards and traffic on the ground, where is there a place for helicopters to land.

And the place where Hillary Clinton was blocked is also very coincidental, right in the middle of a cluster of skyscrapers, and there is no need to find a flat and open place to park a helicopter around.

"Hurry up and check the map!" The campaign manager immediately mobilized the crowd in the car and hurried to find a landing site.

"The nearest place is here!"

The assistant first found the right place, and she pulled up Google Maps and pointed out to the fact that it was a middle school playground, almost a mile away from the current location.

The campaign manager took his assistant's phone and studied it carefully, "No, to get to the playground from here, you need to cross multiple closed roads, detours and overpasses, it will probably take more than an hour, we don't have that much time to waste." ”

The campaign manager's speech involuntarily became urgent, because now the time is already very tight, the program is scheduled to start at ten o'clock, and it is now a quarter past nine, but now the whole convoy is just stuck in the middle of the road, there is a large-scale power outage around, the signal lights do not work, and all the surrounding intersections have entered a state of serious congestion.

Now that the helicopter has arrived, it can't fall off the top of its head, so it can't let Hillary climb the rope ladder, so tomorrow's news is really exciting, so this helicopter has or doesn't.

Now it seems that there is a bit of a problem, and if you are a little careless, there will be a problem, which is a major failure if you are late, and it is very easy to deduct image points.

"Let's get a motorcycle!" In the end, the campaign manager was ruthless and finally made up his mind to ride a motorcycle. "Put on your helmet so that you won't be noticed, find a few more motorcycles, makeup artists must be together, and go to the helicopter without motorcycles."

"Quick! Fast! Fast! Act now! "The campaign manager was a little anxious.

After listening to the campaign manager's words, the crowd immediately dispersed and went into the streets to find motorcycles, but fortunately, the people who were able to join Hillary's team were capable enough and had strong execution, and soon the three motorcycles were driven back.

Hillary Clinton put on a helmet to cover her face, and boarded a motorcycle under the escort of everyone, and then the makeup artist and campaign manager all sat in the back seat of the motorcycle, and the three bodyguards were in charge of driving the motorcycle.

Leaving behind the troops, the vehicles, the three motorcycles moved lightly, shuttling through the congested traffic, watching the speed regain momentum, and the campaign manager's heart finally slowly fell into his stomach.

Fortunately, there was no accident in this matter, and it is estimated that he will be able to get to the TV station on time, if this incident goes out of the basket, then his career should almost be over, after all, such an important meeting, he can actually mess it up, and it is an indelible stain anyway.

Although the traffic jam caused by the blackout has nothing to do with him, people will only pay attention to the results, and people will only see that Hillary Clinton missed important arrangements under his arrangement, and as for the reason, as for the details behind the incident, no one will care. Whether it's his reason or not, he has decided on this black cauldron, and he will be directly characterized at once, and if there is such a stain in his career, he will not want to receive a job as a campaign in the future.

This is important not only to Hillary, but also to him, and fortunately, it didn't go wrong!

The campaign manager was thinking wildly, and the three motorcycles quickly got out of the congested road, and the speed increased again, and they were speeding on the road in order to get to the TV station as soon as possible and buy Hillary more time to prepare.

The motorcycle was getting closer and closer to the station, and as long as he turned the last intersection and walked the last half-mile to reach the station, the campaign manager finally stopped thinking about whether he would arrive on time, and he quickly went through the debate outline and the points to pay attention to in his head, and he had to emphasize to Hillary again when she was grooming, that she had mastered it all and could use it flexibly.

As soon as the motorcycle turned the corner and came to a screeching stop, the campaign manager was horrified to find that the entire television station had been completely surrounded by a crowd of demonstrators, and the long streets were crowded with people holding banners and carrying large slogans.

Campaign managers found that these demonstrators were clearly divided into two groups, one was Hillary's supporters from the Democratic Party, and the other was Trump supporters from the Republican Party.

Most of Hillary's supporters are concentrated around the TV station, while Trump's supporters are mostly on the periphery, and there is a large circle of police cars outside, and the police are loosely distributed around the (dedicated) crowd to prevent them from acting aggressively. In fact, the police should have separated the two groups of (honest) demonstrators, but they obviously did not do so, and did not enter the crowd, after all, the police are human beings, and they are afraid of being beaten by fan groups of both parties.

There was no need for the campaign manager to specifically order, and soon a bodyguard asked the situation clearly, "Sir, this morning Madame's fans gathered around the TV station to express their support, and soon after, Trump's fans also gathered, and now the two sides are still in the stage of a war of words, but I think both sides are quite excited, and it is estimated that there is likely to be a group fight today." ”

The campaign manager is already desperate, he feels that it may be difficult to have a good result today, and now the periphery is Trump's fans, in this case, Hillary will not be able to come forward at all, if Hillary appears in front of the opponent's fans, it is difficult to predict what will happen, in case of the fans hitting Hillary, throwing a leather shoe, smashing an egg or something, whether it hits or not, it will become a big scandal.

But the TV station was in the center of the crowd, and Hillary had to go in, had to go through the Trump fans, and ~~

The campaign manager looked at his watch, it was already 9:45, and there were only fifteen minutes left to start the debate, and whatever the choice, action must be taken, otherwise the impact of Hillary's absence from the debate tournament would be even greater, and even if she was not absent, the mere late arrival would have a serious impact.

It's easy to understand how a candidate who is not punctual and swipes big names can convince voters that she is up to the presidency? (To be continued.) )
