Chapter 237: Master Brewster returns for the second time
Due to the soaring stock prices of theaters across the United States, the film industry sector where it is located has begun to arch upward.
In particular, the stock prices of other cinema stocks have also begun to rise in a large wave (please don't shield) momentum.
Now that Carl Wright has chosen the latter method, he has instantly gained a large number of national cinema stocks and other similar stocks, and the prices of these stocks have increased dramatically compared to before, at least doubled.
When he sold all these stocks, except for theaters in the United States, he instantly had a huge amount of cash in his hands.
Buy, buy, buy mode is on again!
It was 2 p.m.
It's a weekday, and Wall Street is still bustling with people.
The ancient Chinese saying that the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, which is the truest portrayal of this street.
The newcomers here are either financial eaters; Or the "pilgrims" from all over the country, who watched everything that happened here with envy, awe and even fear, and the huge amount of money beyond their comprehension was constantly surging in and out of this place, which was the pride of the United States and the most powerful weapon in foreign propaganda and warfare.
Even if the Russians say that damn capitalism will die sooner or later, the specter of communism obviously will not come from Moscow, and these Russians will watch in amazement at what is happening here, and then return to the embassy and report to their superiors what they have seen and heard on this trip - damn financial speculation will sooner or later destroy the United States, and the red flag will be planted all over the world.
Wall Street is a symbol of New York and even the United States, and its status and significance are extraordinary, so it is natural to invest a lot of police force to defend it.
But as mentioned before, there is no police management agency at the federal level in the United States, and the police are run by the states and states themselves as part of the public service.
Rich communities are safe, and where there is no money, there is rampant, which is also the norm.
Wall Street's big companies have always been willing to spend money on public services such as the police, including but not limited to donating money to police unions, buying off police executives, building good relationships with police unions, and providing free coffee and doughnuts to police officers on patrol.
Therefore, despite the constant riots and zero-dollar purchases across the country in recent years, Wall Street has really been quiet and stable, and the daily order has not been affected in the slightest, according to the ancient adage that there are no eggs under the nest, it is simply a miracle.
Edward didn't understand this truth at first, but later felt that it was normal.
After all, the protests and demonstrations of this era were relatively simple, and the participants were nothing more than two kinds of people, young students and idle people who had nothing to do - all kinds of them, but mainly nger, the former who gathered at the school and went against the government and the president.
From Lyndon Johnson to Richard Nixon, because the Vietnam War was so unpopular, over time the protesters got into the habit of going to the gates of all levels of government to scold the president.
And what about after scolding the president?
Isn't there still a civil rights movement?
Idiots in the five southern states are not allowed to scold?
Those 3 Klux Klan parties are not allowed to scold?
And then there's the group of gynophobes, just two years ago, in 1967, the historic Boston Marathon welcomed women for the first time!
You know, this is a big event that has been around since the end of the 19th century, but for more than 60 years, women have only been spectators.
This made Edward simply unimaginable, as a traverser born in the realm where women can hold up half the sky, he couldn't understand how the country of rice could be closed and backward like this.
And in his previous life, the country was instead exporting the feminist movement to his homeland, which made him simply incomprehensible as a gnat.
How can a country where women are about to lose their surnames when they get married, and how embarrassed to call themselves the standard-bearers of the feminist movement, and then some women in their own country still regard it as a guide, the United States is really ordinary and confident.
The year before, in 1967, Ms. Catherine Swaitz, the first woman to run the Bosdo Marathon, was treated extremely unfairly during the race, and many of the "runners" – who were not exaggerated in their behaviour – were blocked in either overt or implicit ways, including, but not limited to, pushing, crowding, verbal insults, and the most obscene pulling of clothes.
Yes, a group of men tugging at a thinly dressed woman's blouse in full view!
Thanks to the invention of the camera, these acts were recorded and spread around the world.
For this reason, TASS and Pravda received these handed AR rifles, and they were immediately ecstatic, looking up at the sky at 45 degrees in purity and bursting into tears: "Dog, this time I finally caught your handle...... No more rubbing on the ground by the rogue media of the United States......"
The propaganda machine was set in motion to complain to the world about the extremely mistreatment of women in the United States.
At the same time, he said that women in socialist countries do have a higher social status, after all, Russian men do not care when they are drunk - to ensure that they do not freeze to death outside in the ice and snow is responsible for the motherland and family, and it is women who bear family obligations.
But it was only a few days of excitement, and the advantage of the Russians was never in the external propaganda...... In other words, they are accustomed to using methods to deceive their own people to carry out propaganda to the outside world, hehe, the media in Western countries do not have the habit of using TASS press releases as the standard.
This, in turn, shows that the West is indeed very experienced in foreign propaganda and how to deal with the enemy's foreign propaganda, and even without the need for government intervention, Moscow's huge annual propaganda budget can be wasted by the involuntary resistance of the people.
Is it over after scolding the president?
Well, the issue of women's rights is to be protested.
The les issue is also to be protested.
After these protests, the masses remembered the evil Red Empire again......
This is a student movement.
And the protests of the socially idle, - uh, their purpose is more explicit - zero-dollar purchases.
Although Wall Street is all about money, it is all in the form of data.
There are no home appliance stores, and there is no Wal-Mart, so the ghost is going to grab it!
In short, Wall Street has always stayed out of the matter, although it has a very close relationship with the government and officials at all levels, but it has been calm, which makes Edward feel that the people of the United States at this time are too young, too simple and very naïve!
Now that the traverser is here, Wall Street can't run......
Edward drove out in a sports car last night for a tandem.
It doesn't work.
Crowds of people began to gather at the entrance of the New York Stock Exchange.
A square-faced middle-aged man wearing a crumpled M65 military trench coat squeezed out of the crowd and climbed onto the pedestal of the bronze statue of Washington at the entrance of the National Memorial in the United States Hall of Commonwealth.
The U.S. Federal Hall National Memorial is across the door from the New York Stock Exchange, and the bronze statue in Washington is also facing the entrance to the New York Stock Exchange, making it look as if the founding head was closely monitoring the world's largest stock exchange.
This middle-aged man is none other than former Senator Mr. Brewster.
Although he was over forty years old, it can be seen that he had received good military training and his movements were clean and neat.
I saw him jump up after running, and his hands were on the pedestal stone of the statue more than two meters high, and then his waist and abdomen exerted force, the muscles of his arms arched, and his right foot kicked on the vertical façade, and the whole person rose into the air.
Firmly standing on the pedestal!
This hand immediately drew applause from the crowd of onlookers.
At this moment, the police all gathered around, they pulled out their batons, and shouted in a rough voice (after all, it was Wall Street that fed them, they had to work, didn't they?). On the one hand, intimidate the onlookers, and on the other hand, I also expect the guy in front of the Father of the Nation to hurry up and consciously come down and don't look for trouble!
"Hey, damn it, what are you doing! Come down and don't disrupt public order! A policeman shouted.
"Yes, this is a bronze statue of Washington, you better be respectful, get down and get out, we don't see it, or we will handcuff you to the bureau and let you stay with those drug dealers for a few days......," another policeman began to routinely threaten.
"I, Daniel Brewster, former Maryland Senator! I'd like to talk to you a little bit about it today! ”
"Although I am no longer a senator, there are still many people who have come to me and told me about their misfortunes, such as this, they want to buy stocks only to find that the evil brokerage is controlled by an even more evil unknown force, deviates from the terms of the agreement, and refuses to provide the relevant services. This is a crime, this is a betrayal of the spirit of the United States, this is a desecration of the spirit of the contract and the Constitution! ”
After he reported his home, the police immediately became honest.
The master who resigns is also a master, a superior person, and must be respected.
The cops looked at each other, and immediately their voices began to soften, and the baton was thrust back behind their butts.
No longer trying to disperse the population, but beginning to maintain order.
And the two most flexible guys quickly slipped away, and they were in a hurry to report to their superiors.
They didn't know what was going to happen, but their intuition and experience told them that Wall Street was in trouble.
New York is not Chicago, there is no Daley bulldozer, and it is necessary to plan ahead.
What's more, this is the nest of the Democratic Party, but the mayor happens to be a Republican.
How things will evolve after that is a very complicated issue, which can be roughly divided into: the Democrats want to make it big, but the Republicans don't want to, the Republicans want to make it big but the Democrats don't, or both parties want to make it big.
It seems that a simple 2×2 matrix can be analyzed.
But this involves not only the executives of the two parties will stumble with each other, but also the mayor, governor, state secretary of state and other senior officials, as well as the New York City Council, the New York State Legislature, and a series of old men, and at the same time, New York State also has a large number of congressional masters.
Needless to say, such a large-scale mass incident will definitely become a stage for open and secret battles and even big fights between each other.
This is not something that the grassroots police below can participate in, and the only thing they can do now is to report it quickly.
Then do your best to maintain order, even if you are out of responsibility, so that if you want to find a scapegoat, then it may be the bad luck of those who don't work hard.
The police are not a good job in the United States, and there are no federal-level management agencies under the jurisdiction of various cities, but New York is rich, the daily salary is not high, but the pension insurance is sufficient, and all kinds of messy benefits and "internal benefits" add up to quite good, and they are also respected.
If it is done well, this position can still be passed on to the next generation, and of course the police must be careful to deal with it, after all, now that industrial problems have begun to appear, it is difficult to find such a good job.
Master Brewster was naturally invited by Edward, and the price was not small, and he promised to carve out a piece of his earnings as a hardship fee.
The two sides bargained for a long time and closed the deal at a fixed price of 10w US dollars.
To be honest, this is sky-high, even if it is enough to find a retired American president to give a business speech for a few thousand dollars, of course, a handshake and a photo will add money.
As for the senator who is still working on it, of course...... You can't spend money, because this is obviously an extremely shoddy bribe, so the politicians of the United States disdain to eat so ugly.
In short, Mr. Brewster inadvertently set this record for appearance fees, and no one will be able to break it for a while.
In the process of negotiation, Edward's good impression of him has also increased, he is indeed a wonderful person, he is very direct when talking about money, without a trace of coyness, this coolness is rare in the world.
After the two sides made a deal, Mr. Brewster patted his chest and said that it definitely makes you feel that it is worth spending money, and the $100,000 includes psychological compensation for being tortured by the police on the spot.
But there is a little tail behind it: if there are other unexpected situations, Master Brewster can easily deal with it, but it will have to add money!
Of course, Edward said that it was perfectly fine, and that you get what you pay for.
That's why I moved this great god.
Master Brewster doesn't have much ability to get things done now, but he's really good at ruining or making trouble.
He has a rare mixed personality among senators, and although he has resigned, it is tantamount to removing the shackles of idols, and he has done the work of rolling around and learning to bark if necessary - of course, this is for additional money.
And for him, running to Wall Street to make trouble...... No, doing public speaking, that's having an eyeball effect.
Secondly, the last time he bravely rescued Tony Hall, the whole process was recorded by the accompanying reporters, and then it was on the news, which made him very beautiful.
It has played a good hedging role, at least when everyone mentions him now, the first reaction is no longer "the source of corruption in Maryland", but "a veteran with a sense of justice, although his hands and feet may have been a little unclean at the beginning, but it seems to have a good character?" ”。
This will help him to make a comeback.
The same is true today.
There were a lot of reporters in the crowd that he paid for, and now the cameras, laptops, and video cameras have been set up, just waiting for him to make trouble, oh, no, to give a speech.
As for the content of the speech, it is natural to be able to guess.
Except for accusations and accusations, but as a former senator, the same words came out of his mouth, and the taste and strength were completely different.
The tongue that he had developed on Capitol Hill was to sentence Robin Hood Securities Economics to death in public, and it was almost said that the company was a spy who used rubles to harm the financial system of the United States.
As soon as he said that, there were applause and applause from below.
Obviously, these people are also pre-found childcare.
If anyone has witnessed the previous Bergman murders, they will probably be surprised that the loudest guy who screams is a little familiar......
In that incident, the guy named Frank stood beside John Gotti and was the first to draw his knife and charge at the Ferricher gang.
After the two sides fought, he was the first to pull out his pistol.
And as a result of his indiscriminate shooting, which led to a massive shootout between the two sides, the hapless Bergman father and son were hit by stray bullets......
And he himself was also named a major suspect in the case by the police and was wanted.
Of course, this was last year.
Now that the case is over, he naturally starts a new life.
