Blackstone Code Chapter 1437: Select
Remember【】for a second,!
"How much do you think we will spend on this campaign?"
Mr. Truman asked a question everyone was curious about, and that was how much it would cost to run for president.
Lynch, as a core supporter of the governor and the president, has the power to access part of the cost details, he is interested in these and knows a little bit.
"First of all, we will print posters for you. There are a total of 200 cities in the Federation that need our publicity. Calculated based on 200,000 posters per city, this requires at least 40 million posters."
"The good news is that there are printing houses that specialize in this job, and they can reduce the cost to a suitable range. Printing posters will cost between four and six million, depending on our needs. "
"If we need better paper and paint, the price will naturally be higher, but if we don't pursue too good results, the price can be reduced a lot."
Mr. Truman frowned when he heard this part. It's just that there is so much money for printing posters, so what about putting up posters?
Lynch seemed to see his worries and took the initiative to explain, "There is a special company responsible for putting up posters, we just need to send the posters, and then choose a stall plan, and they will help us complete it. "
"It's much cheaper and more expensive than having someone put up the posters ourselves!"
He accentuated a little, which made Mr. Troman realize there was something behind it.
He asked softly, "Illegal immigration?"
Lynch nodded.
In fact, many illegal immigrants enter the federal government through various channels every day. Those who have no entry records and no official permission are illegal immigrants.
Native natives of the Commonwealth have a great deal of dissatisfaction with illegal and legal immigrants, who they always think are taking their jobs. .
Added to the low demand of immigrants for work benefits and benefits, many capitalists always feel that there is enough for workers now, and they are unwilling to increase the benefits and benefits.
There are some core contradictions here. If these contradictions are not resolved, the contradiction between local workers and immigrant workers cannot be resolved.
In order to reduce the cost of local labor, it is no secret that some companies use illegal immigrants in secret.
In the beginning, the workers' union would encourage workers to march or something, but as more and more legal expatriate workers came from Nagalil, people stopped making troubles about it.
The previous year, the federal government passed the "Job Guarantee Act", which stipulates that each enterprise must have a certain number of federal native workers to ensure that the legitimate rights and interests of native workers are not infringed, otherwise it is an illegal act.
This move has greatly reduced the conflict between federal workers and immigrants. They also realize that some things cannot be changed. As long as their interests are not harmed, they will no longer make trouble.
This gives a lot of opportunities for small companies, like these small companies putting up posters.
There may be only a dozen people in the entire company, dozens of people, and it is possible that even the boss himself is an illegal immigrant, or not a federal citizen.
This is deliberately done to avoid legal support to the greatest extent possible after the incident. The member countries of the World Development Council have signed a repatriation treaty. Some people will find some small countries to register their identities and then come to the Federation. Do some grey business.
When they are caught, the people behind them request repatriation through state channels.
These people are big taxpayers themselves, and they are no less than the core force supporting the economy for small countries. Simple fines do not even require jail time. After a period of time, they can change their status and return to the federation. keep doing their jobs.
Naturally, what they hire are basically illegal immigrant laborers. These people have no guarantees in the federal government and need to live, and they are willing to work even with very meager wages.
This is also the reason why these contracting companies can undertake all kinds of basic work at a loss and still make a profit!
In fact, this kind of thing is often exposed and sometimes reported, but neither the Immigration Bureau nor the International Affairs Department has much interference in it.
If no one reports it, the immigration department pretends not to know, and only when someone reports it will they make a move.
The development of the federation needs these cheap labor, but through legal channels, it is necessary to take care of the feelings of ordinary workers. After all, the federation has stopped the labor immigration policy.
The gap is getting bigger and bigger, but the channel is closed. Sometimes it is necessary to be a little confused to be a person, and to be an official, also need to be a little confused.
Mr. Trueman sighed softly by Lynch's admission, who knew these things but couldn't do anything about it.
Compared to those foreign workers, these domestic workers are simply masters. They need chicken or beef for their lunch, they need a bottle of beer, and they are confrontational about the length and content of the work.
As a man of "integrity", Mr. Trueman is also not very good at talking about this.
"Apart from this part, the rest is the cost of various speeches, the publicity cost of the TV station, and the cost of buying the front page of the newspaper and the special issue of the magazine..."
In the end, Mr. Trueman was a little numb. He knew that it took a lot of money to run for president, but he didn't know that running for president... required so much money!
He couldn't help interrupting Lynch and asked, "How much did you donate to Mr. President's campaign?"
Lynch smiled slightly and didn't answer, but the state of his facial expressions gave Mr. Trueman an actual guess.
"Above 10 million...?"
There is still no answer, but he already knows.
Immediately after, he sighed, and there was some expression on his face that he didn't know how to describe, but he quickly regained his strength.
Perhaps that's why the Federal President never gets rid of the capitalists!
Yes, the president himself cannot have so much money to run himself in a campaign that he may not win. He must rely on the strength of the capitalists to have enough money to run.
There is a saying in the Commonwealth that everyone knows. The main idea of this sentence is that as long as you have 10 million, you can run for president.
This also means that the minimum threshold for running for president is 10 million!
How many politicians can give out 10 million in one go?
No!
Fortunately, Mr. Trueman has Lynch's support, the military industry group's support, and the military's support.
These are the richest people in the Commonwealth, and with their support, at least in terms of funding, it's not a problem.
Mr. Trueman lit a cigarette, "How much are you going to spend this time running?"
Lynch shook his head, "We haven't sat down yet, but the initial estimate is at least fifty million."
Among them, Lynch will give about 10 million. The military, as the backer of Mr. Truman, will definitely not give too little, about 15 million to 20 million, and then the military industry group can almost give out 10 million. Do come.
The rest will be donated by other supporters. Running for president does not mean that if you have enough money, you don't need to donate. This is obviously not in line with the rules of the capital game.
Even if you have enough money, you still need to allow other people's donations. You can't deny others the chance to bet because you have an advantage.
These people add up to about 20 million inflows, and 50 million is just the bottom line.
Mr. Trueman also developed some ideas from this.
If you run for president once, you will have tens of millions of funds flowing, then after he is elected, will these investors benefit exponentially?
The answer to this question is very clear - yes.
He has to make enough money for these investors or he won't be re-elected.
The military's money is fine, as long as some of their budgets are approved.
The military industry group has also benefited from this. If you think about it further, Lynch can also get a lot of money from the military's budget, and the fundamental reason for all this is that they are all "investors".
Mr. Truman has some instinctive disgust, but he can't express it. This is the federal game rules, you can hate it, but you must obey it.
Anyone who does not abide by it will be ostracized by this country!
The two soon left the campaign office, Mr. Trueman was going to solve some trouble for Mr. President, and Lynch found Peleus.
Since both parties intend to make a big bet on Mr. Truman, it is necessary to meet and discuss in detail before the cooperation.
This time they met at the military base outside Bupen, which is very safe. In Peleus' words, they are all their own.
"Last time I didn't know what the soy protein coagulum you mentioned was. I also found someone to try to make some. It seems to be very different from the ones you described."
When Lynch and Peleus first met, they talked a lot about food.
This representative of the military's next generation is interested in good food and looks fat.
But he's not really fat, he's just muscled all over his body, and under the cover of loose clothing, it can make people think he's fat.
This is also part of his self-disguise.
Lynch smiled~IndoMTL.com~ I'll make something for someone to send over later. "
After the two briefly chatted about some very common content, the topic was gradually introduced into the next thing.
"Do you have any good campaign team recommendations?" Lynch took the initiative to ask, the military actually played a major role in the campaign.
Choose the campaign team, and they must be the ones who take the lead.
If the election fails, it will not be affected.
Peleus thought for a moment, "We're not very good at these things, but I've heard...they do a good job, maybe try to get in touch with them?"
The person he is talking about is currently recognized as one of the best campaign teams in the Federation, and the cost is naturally quite high.
There is also a father and son in this campaign team. It is amazing that the father and son have served as federal presidents before and after. There are a total of four former federal presidents in the entire team!
The strength is very strong, of course, the cost is high enough!
You have to show sincerity if you want these former presidents to work for you!
