Chapter 327: Tai Chi PR
(Ask for a subscription!) Ask for a ticket! )
Although there is no federal law specifically applicable to processions and assemblies, each state has basically enacted relevant laws and regulations that regulate the location, time, form, purpose, actual effect and social impact of demonstrations.
The general principle is that an application must be made to the authorities before the procession; Demonstrations must not interfere with the normal lives of other people, must not deliberately undermine social stability, and must not subvert management bodies.
State laws agree that schools, libraries, and other places related to teaching must be kept quiet, and demonstrations are strictly prohibited around them;
Parades are prohibited around military and intelligence agencies for national security reasons;
Demonstrations are prohibited in private places and areas not monitored by the police;
Most states also prohibit demonstrations around the courthouse; In metropolitan areas such as New York City, Los Angeles, Boston, etc., demonstrators are not allowed to approach foreign embassies and consulates.
In addition, the parade time avoids the rush hour, and demonstrations are generally not allowed during the rush hour when people commute to and from work, so as to ensure that the road is clear.
The form of the procession prohibits the destruction and forced identification of passers-by along the route, and there are a series of detailed regulations on the size of the placards carried by the marchers, the power of the loudspeakers, and so on.
This is so that these devices cannot conceal weapons or be used as weapons.
Those who violate these rules without other intent or serious consequences are generally fined around $5,000 or imprisoned for up to one year.
Crucially, the application process was timed to refuse a permit, and the promoters of the demonstrations had to apply to the authorities before marching.
In New York City, for example, demonstrators must apply to the police at least 36 hours in advance, and the police usually want to apply as soon as possible, so that they have enough time to schedule their police presence and make proper arrangements for what might happen.
Sometimes the police will discuss the time and route of the march with the organizers, and if they really think it is inappropriate, they can refuse to issue a procession permit.
In addition, in order to ensure the tranquility of other people and the safety of demonstrators, the police have the right to refrain from demonstrations approved by them and prevent demonstrations from turning into riots.
In short, there are a series of rules for parades in the ugly country, and you can't gather casually.
The hundreds of Chinese gathered in front of the construction site in Xinhua Town were theoretically in violation of the regulations.
But for the sake of Li Yaoyang's face, David Pinkman did not delve into it.
Of course, so far, both sides have been able to exercise restraint, at least not with drastic tactics.
They kept shouting:
"Give us an explanation and return our hard-earned money!"
The same words have been shouted before and after, not at all, there are dialects everywhere, it sounds like a crow meeting, a mess, passing foreigners can't understand, can't help but have a heart that likes to join in the fun!
They gathered around the crowd, looking at the lively posture constantly, some of them were like clowns, imitating the language of the Chinese, but the imitation was specious and nondescript!
The construction site was in a hurry, and it would not be quiet for a while, someone had already invited Li Yaoyang, and he had to come forward for such a big incident.
The Atlantic Daily sent a reporter to record the incident, and although it may not have a good impact on the construction site, it is a public opinion explosion that the newspaper must not miss.
It's all Li Yaoyang's industry, and there is no question of who hurts whom.
Li Yaoyang hurriedly arrived, got out of the car, took the iron megaphone and stood in front of the crowd.
As soon as he appeared, he quieted everyone down, Li Yaoyang, the child who walked out of Chinatown, many neighbors watched him step by step to today.
It is precisely because of the trust in him that everyone took out a lifetime of hard-earned money to buy a house in Atlantic City, who would have thought that in time to catch up with the bubble crisis, who can take care of the friendship of neighbors at this time, and get the money back first.
Li Yaoyang didn't speak, he looked at the big guy quietly, his eyes were very sincere, but at the same time he was also very helpless and a little sad.
At first, he thought that someone was agitating behind his back, but when people checked, it was not instigated by someone with a heart at all, it was completely spontaneous by ordinary people, and it involved a lifetime of money, and they had to do this, trying to get back their savings in this way.
After a few minutes of confrontation, Li Yaoyang finally spoke:
"Uncles, uncles, aunts, and sisters, I am Li Yaoyang, and there are those who know and those who don't, but I know very well that the reason why you are here is because of your trust in me."
After a pause, seeing that someone was about to speak, Li Yaoyang pressed his hand:
"I know you all have a stomach to complain about, but please listen to me, I will give you time to ask questions later, and I will answer them one by one."
Volume up again:
"In the summer, a hurricane swept through Florida at 200 kilometers per hour, and the tsunami caused by the hurricane flattened two Florida cities.
13,000 houses were destroyed, 415 people were killed, and the sea rose to the second floor, leaving people to climb to the rooftops to flee for their lives.
The hurricane not only knocked down houses, but also punctured the first recorded 'real estate bubble' in human history.
In the aftermath of the hurricane, many bankrupt entrepreneurs and bankers committed suicide or went insane, while others became beggars.
Ray Klock, the famous 'Godfather of McDonald's' in the business world, was also impoverished and forced to become a paper cup salesman..."
There are many people who are starting to get confused and don't understand what Li Yaoyang is talking about, and even there are many people who are following the chaos, they don't know where Florida is, and they keep pabbling the people next to them:
"Dude, where's Florida?"
"You stupid, you don't know where Florida is? I'll tell you, it's just to the west, next to the City of Angels..."
The person on the other side couldn't stand it anymore, and the corners of his mouth twitched:
"Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, so as not to mislead people, Florida is located at the southeastern tip of the ugly country, directly into the ocean, close to Cuba, warm and humid winters, and is a holiday destination.
In particular, Palm Beach Island, north of Miami, is a paradise for the wealthy, and before World War I, a quarter of the wealth of the ugly country would be gathered every winter. ”
The man who asked the question was stunned:
"Wow~ So there is such a beautiful place?"
"Isn't it good? I don't think so. ”
"Uh... Sorry, I don't understand either..."
In fact, he didn't say that after a stop, things have changed, because they are far away from the war and make a lot of war money, the people of the ugly country feel that their pockets are full, and they believe that "the ugly country will always win"!
Job opportunities have increased, good salaries, and the stock market has prospered, so that a lot of people have money, and everyone has three main things to do: buy a house, buy a car, and play!
Although the National Bank was allowed to issue non-agricultural real estate loans, the stimulus to housing prices was not obvious, and from 1921 to the present, housing prices in the Washington metropolitan area have only increased by about 10 percent.
On the contrary, more and more people are buying cars.
In this era, a product called car installment was born, and a 10% down payment can drive away an expensive car, and the advertising is so loud that many people feel that buying a car is a more worthy thing than buying a house.
At the same time, the country was undergoing a vigorous urbanization movement, and the roads were improved a lot, so people were no longer limited by trains, and "self-driving tours" began to prevail. Florida, which was previously only accessible to a very small number of people, has become a middle-class holiday destination.
They soon found out that this was the real depression of property value!
Many people are willing to buy a house or a piece of land here for vacation, and real estate is gradually booming.
The news of making money is like the wind, you can't hide it.
More ugly people are coming here and can't wait to buy real estate.
In previous years, Florida land prices have risen dramatically.
For example, a plot of land in Palm Beach was worth $800,000 in 1921, $1.5 million in 1922 and $4 million this year.
Rumor has it that people are jumping into the real estate industry after investing $800 a few years ago and making $150,000 a few years later.
Of course, the returns are indeed insane, and for every 10% increase in land prices, speculators' profits will almost double, but they still can't keep up with house prices.
In the past two years, Florida has seen a phenomenal increase in land prices.
Housing prices are increasing by about double every year, and it is not uncommon for a house to increase by four times in a year, and housing prices in the Miami area have increased by 5~6 times in 3 years.
The slogan was, "If you don't buy a house today, you won't be able to buy it tomorrow!" ”。
The Miami Herald was the thickest newspaper in the world at the time because of its massive real estate advertisements.
The funniest thing is that Miami has a population of only 75,000, and there are as many as 25,000 people working in real estate.
Banks are also adding to the problem, with the average person only needing a 10% down payment when buying a house, and the remaining 90% of the house payment comes entirely from bank loans.
Investors only need to pay a certain amount of interest and can sit back and wait for a good time to resell the house, which is often sold for more than double the original price.
After paying off the loan, the profit earned can be more than ten times.
Florida's money-making effect has also attracted some offbeat figures, such as an Italian immigrant, the aforementioned Pounds.
He told the story of a mail-order coupon that promised a super high rate of return, and people rushed to come, and Pounds used the new money to pay off the old bills, and the more he played, the bigger he played.
Real estate is still the mainstream, and investing in Florida has become one of the ways for ugly people to get rich, and the train ships to Miami are crowded with ugly people who dream of making a fortune.
For a time, countless fortunes were rushed to Florida, houses on both sides of the streets of the city were bought at high prices, and unplanned land in the suburbs was also sold in subdivisions
People who buy and buy land rarely go to the field to see it, they don't care about the quality, they just have to wait, wait for it to rise and sell it, and get the difference from it.
Who would have thought that a sudden hurricane would shatter all dreams.
The inevitable collapse finally came, and Miami's property transactions shrank from less than $1 billion to $140 million in 1926.
Many of the high-ranking bidders began to be unable to pay their mortgages, and people sold their real estate in droves, causing house prices to plummet and bankrupt families abounded.
The bursting of this bubble is not an isolated, localized case, and even without this hurricane, the bubble would have burst due to some other small trigger.
At present, it is clear that public opinion is vigorously controlling the negative effects, but the fuse of the economic crisis was ignited when the Florentine real estate bubble burst.
Li Yaoyang knows very well that this is just the beginning, and in a few years, with the collapse of Wall Street, it will be the real world Great Depression.
And what he has to do now is to save up more cash before the Great Depression, and when the Great Depression comes, start a crazy buy-buy-buy mode.
He has to spend Double 11 every day!
However, before that, he had to fool the people in front of him, and really let them withdraw the funds, wouldn't that be the end of the calf. Eight Chinese Net
The dry mouth he talked about earlier really made the people dizzy, because most people can't understand it, can you not faint.
Interestingly, a few people forgot to go home to cook for the baby because they stood there for too long, so they were embarrassed to raise their hands to ask Li Yaoyang for leave, go home first to cook for the child, and then come back to listen to the lecture.
Li Yaoyang must be self-sufficient, very good, this is the first batch of fainting.
Someone made a proof, and someone immediately followed, and soon, groups of people dispersed, and finally the dozens of people who persevered looked at each other, touched their heads embarrassedly, and all withdrew.
In this way, a crisis was resolved invisibly, which is called overcoming rigidity with softness, borrowing strength, Tai Chi - Li Yaoyang!
David Pinkman walked out not far away, applauding as he went:
"Beautiful emergency PR, that's still the vocabulary you taught me."
"Hehe, no thanks." Li Yaoyang wiped the sweat from his forehead, and no one knew what he had just become nervous.
"I said Lee, you're a bit of a vain." David smirked.
"What?"
"your Jesus Mary, I'm hot."
"Hot?" David looked at the snow that had not yet completely melted, and almost believed him.
"Okay, let's go to my office and sit down?"
"It's okay, I'm thirsty, begging for a glass of water."
"My pleasure, this way, please!"
Returning to the sheriff's office with him, Li Yaoyang was really not polite at all, he poured water into it, poured water into it in one go, and burped with satisfaction, which suppressed the heat of the smoke in his throat.
"Lee, this incident must have been an accident, right?"
"Well, the owner is worried that his life savings will be wasted, and his impulsive mood is understandable, and there is no need for you to hold on to it."
"Of course, they also contributed to my performance, and I can't be grateful."
is worthy of David Pinkerman, who can make money for himself and take credit for big things.
As long as the pen moves, that is, under the leadership of the great Sheriff Pinkerman, Atlantic City has recently successfully resolved a public crisis incident, without causing a single casualty, Coca-Cola, congratulations!
Coke: Thank you for advertising for me.
Pepsi: I'm out double.
Author: I want to be blind!
Getting back to business, Pinkerman's voice changed:
"But when will your neighborhood be built?"
"The house will be delivered as soon as the winter of 1925."
"So it's going to take a whole year?"
"Almost, what's wrong?"
Pinkerman said thoughtfully:
"I think that if this trend continues, I am afraid that the ugly country will usher in a greater economic crisis!"
Li Yaoyang looked at him unexpectedly, he didn't expect this guy to have such economic thinking in addition to making money!
"Brother Shen!"
"Hmm!"
Shen Changqing walked on the road, and when he met someone he knew well, he would say hello to each other or nod his head.
But it doesn't matter who it is.
There was no superfluous expression on everyone's face, as if they were very indifferent to everything.
on this.
Shen Changqing is used to it.
Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, it is an institution that maintains the stability of Great Qin, and its main responsibility is to kill demons and monsters, and of course there are some other side jobs.
Arguably.
In the Demon Suppression Division, everyone has a lot of blood on their hands.
When a person is accustomed to seeing life and death, then he will become indifferent to many things.
When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but over time he got used to it.
The Demon Suppression Division is huge.
The people who can stay in the Demon Suppression Division are all strong masters, or people who have the potential to become masters.
Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.
Among them, the Demon Suppression Division is divided into two professions, one is the town guard and the other is the demon exterminator.
Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Division starts with the lowest level of demon slayer.
Then step by step, he is expected to become a town guard.
Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level of the demon slayer envoys.
Have memories of the predecessor.
He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.
It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of an attic.
Unlike other places full of slaughter, the attic here seems to stand out from the crowd, and in the bloody Demon Suppression Division, it presents a different tranquility.
At this time, the attic door is open, and there are occasional people entering and exiting.
Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment, and then stepped in.
Access to the attic.
The environment has changed in vain.
A burst of ink fragrance mixed with the faint smell of blood came to his face, making his brow furrow instinctively, but quickly stretched.
The smell of blood on everyone's body in the Demon Suppression Division is almost impossible to clean.
