As long as you grasp the economic situation and development direction, there will be a large group of people to help Han Xuan complete the decision, and there are not many things that really need him to do.

For the time being, there is no need to contact the shareholders of Time Warner Group, I just gave them a punch today, and now I am coming to the door again, most of them will not give a good look, it is better to let it go first.

On this day in mid-December, two major events took place in the world.

One is that the Nasdaq index has fallen sharply again, traditional industries have been affected by stock market fluctuations, and the output value has also dropped a lot, and the global economic output has evaporated hundreds of billions of dollars.

Another major event is Han Xuan's acquisition of Time Warner Group, a veteran media company with great influence in the United States, and countless media companies such as the three major newspapers, the three mainstream news weeklies, and the five major television stations in the United States, can be divided into three categories: liberals, conservatives, and neutrals.

As a direct tongue to the public, each media outlet has its own tendencies, with liberals and conservatives working together while opposing each other on certain propositions, and the centrists pushing the rudder to both sides, involving countless interest groups.

Liberals, as they are accustomed to being called, advocate official intervention in the economy, increased taxes and official spending on social services, welfare policies, and a special focus on minorities, emphasizing fair trade and trade protection.

It advocates the Democratic Party (donkey), advocates the settlement of international problems through consultation, supports abortion rights in society and culture, advocates a tolerant and accepting attitude towards homosexuality, opposes strict law enforcement against illegal population migration, supports stem cell research, supports gun control, abolishes the death penalty, and opposes the use of religious beliefs to guide people's secular life.

Economically, right-leaning conservatives advocate reducing official intervention, reducing the federal deficit, and low taxes, emphasizing the role of free competition and market regulation, advocating free markets, and opposing trade protection.

The party favors the Republican Party, supports tough treatment of authoritarian states, emphasizes traditional morality, attaches importance to the role of religion and the family, opposes the legalization of gay marriage and abortion, advocates strict control of illegal population migration, opposes stem cell research, and advocates the retention of the death penalty.

In order to maintain a certain balance, the United States has developed a way for the two parties to take turns in power, so as to prevent one party from becoming bigger, and also to avoid the balance between politics and society and business being broken.

The two sides have reached a tacit consensus on this point of view, and there are liberals among conservatives, and there are conservative members among liberals, and it is not absolute.

No matter which political party is in power, it represents economic interest groups behind it, so in fact, Han Xuan does not care who is the president, the president is just their spokesperson.

In the United States, the two parties take turns in power, but there is no fixed order of coming to power, and it is possible for one party to run for president many times in some periods, and the most extreme case is that Roosevelt served four consecutive terms as president, because of the special historical background.

Time Warner's CNN is regarded as a benchmark for the left, while Fox News, which is controlled by News Corp., is regarded as a benchmark for the right.

The Donkey Party and the Elephant Party have tried several times, and finally found that it is more neutral, only attaches importance to its own interests, and is quite close to the two factions, and the old man's influence has increased greatly, and the influence of this thing cannot be seen or touched, but it can indeed be clearly felt, the most obvious is that the invisible pressure that accompanied the old man and Han Xuan in the past has suddenly decreased a lot.

As soon as the acquisition of Time Warner Group was launched in the morning, all forces came to the door in the afternoon, and the members of the Donkey Party were blown up, and the news organizations under Time Warner Group, but their most important external propaganda channel, if they lost their piece, the upcoming general election was likely to end in defeat.

It is worth mentioning that in the next election, Xiaobu will run as an elephant party, and it is a well-known fact that the old man of the Han family and former president Lao Bu have a close personal relationship, which means that the donkey party has fallen behind from the beginning.

Unlike the Donkey Party, the Elephant Party is ecstatic, and Mr. Old Case, the current chairman of Time Warner Group, has been firmly supporting the Donkey Party for most of his life, and if Han Xuan becomes the new owner of Time Warner Group, it means that the Elephant Party has the possibility of taking Time Warner Group.

Even if it doesn't work, it's necessary to maintain good relations, and no matter how bad it is, it's no worse than in the hands of the old Chairman Case, and that's a victory for the Target Party......

Although Time Warner is the tongue of the donkey party, it is essentially a company, as can be seen from the fact that it spared no effort to smear the president with the zippergate incident last year.

Han Xuan has already gotten angry with the president over the acquisition of Time Warner Group, and he holds a grudge against it as a personal vendetta of the president, and from the perspective of a political party, the president naturally does not want Time Warner Group to fall to the Elephant Party.

However, it is worth pondering that the current president is about to retire, and then he has little to do with the Donkey Party, which is why Han Xuan was sure in advance to persuade him not to meddle in the acquisition and help him complete the acquisition, and the two have a "good personal relationship".

When it comes to gift-giving, Han Xuan is also a good hand now, and he was trained by his own old man, and when it comes to the black transaction of money and power, in fact, the White House is the hardest hit area, and in the face of tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of dollars, few people can hold it.

At this time.

The phone on Han Xuan's desk rang, and after he picked it up, he heard Secretary Joy tell him that a gentleman named Gordon Byron came to ask for a meeting, and after thinking about it for a while, he remembered who this guy was - the current editor of the Donkey Party!

In the United States, his status can be regarded as the third-in-command of a political party, the first leader is the speaker of the parliament, the second-in-command is the leader of the majority party, and the discipline inspection commission is specially responsible for safeguarding the interests of the party.

He smiled and said, "Please let him in, I'm free now." ”

After speaking, Han Xuan hung up the phone, and he continued to lie on the chair with a smile on his face.

Since this afternoon, the phone has hardly stopped, and the more people come to the door, the happier Han Xuan becomes, because that shows that Time Warner Group has a huge influence, and if it is easy to get it, it will have to think about whether to buy this company......
