Blackstone Code Chapter 1374: Season 1 Finals
On the day of the college admissions interview, thousands of people paid their tuition fees and confirmed their future college status.
According to the preliminary plan of Lynch and the principal, because this is the first year of the school, many things have not spread, such as influence.
There are some professors, suitable college teachers, faculty members, etc., who are still on the sidelines of this school.
This year's enrollment target is 2,500 people, but now it is said that there are already a full 3,000 people who have reached their intentions, which has seriously exceeded the plan.
Fortunately, Lynch said that if you can squeeze a squeeze, then squeeze a squeeze, and eventually the school will keep the first 3,200 people who pay tuition.
And those who came before this... I'm sorry, I can only say sorry to them.
Sometimes there is no absolute fairness in some things, even if it is fairness itself, it is not absolute fairness.
In the early morning, Lynch and Katherine got up and changed their clothes and started their morning run.
The self-disciplined life is actually a process of self-sublimation and transformation. Although most ugly ducklings are still ugly ducklings after their sublimation and transformation, they at least gained a lot in the process.
Good exercise can brighten one's body and mind, and the two ran through the greenery of the city's Central Park in the first rays of the morning sun.
Running has become a part of life for them, without being out of breath.
"...sometimes I can't believe how complicated a city's political issues can be!"
Catherine whispered some political struggles in Sabine as she ran. She was just an ordinary city councillor. She had to go out of the office by herself and hire people to serve her at her own expense. The salary given to her by the city hall every year may That is the minimum wage level.
Sounds like... city councillor is a thankless job?
If you're only looking at what it does and how it's hired, it's true.
Most of the federal councillors have to deal with some matters related to the city, such as the pollution caused by factories, which kills fish in the city or surrounding rivers and lakes.
Or if there is a safety incident at a factory, they are responsible for participating in the investigation to ensure that capitalists do not use wealth to manipulate justice.
Most of the time, MPs are doing dirty and tiring work, and they don't have much wages, even an ordinary worker may not be able to compete.
But in fact, most of the income of parliamentarians does not come from wages, but from the kind of situation that people least want to see, the transfer of benefits from capitalists.
Of course they wouldn't know.
In addition to being very tiring at work, members sometimes have conflicts and conflicts with other members.
For example, member a and member b belong to different capital camps, and the business of the two companies may overlap or even conflict in a certain part.
In order to open their eyes for the capitalists, the two sides will definitely attack each other.
Catherine received a case of pollution. When she was investigating, someone suddenly said that her investigation was illegal, that there were problems with the procedures and procedures, and it must be terminated.
She didn't realize it at the time, but two days later, after being reminded by her staff, she realized that she was involved in a confrontation between two local companies.
The two sides reported each other's violations, and tried their best to keep those congressmen and the investigation team from revolving around them. They used every means.
For the first time, Catherine felt that the councillors had more than just responsibility.
She and Lynch talked a lot, and it wasn't as complicated as it is now when she was an intern at the Presidential Palace.
After all, being an intern at the Presidential Palace is just for errands, and after becoming a city councillor, she can make her own suggestions to the mayor, speak on behalf of the people, and even find ways to push certain bills to pass!
She went from outsider to insider, and finally saw the complexity of politics.
"Everyone wears a mask, you don't know if they're talking shit, and you don't know who to trust!"
Catherine was very emotional when she said these words. She thought she had imagined the job to be very complicated, but she was too naive and miscalculated the complexity of politics.
Lynch passed on some experience while running, "In fact, politics is simpler than you think."
"All actions have a purpose, and this purpose, for politicians at the bottom, is to gain more support from capitalists."
“So when they choose to do something, they show their bottom line more than politicians at the top.”
"When we talk about the sanctity of politics, we mean that you already have a high political status, so you can have such characteristics!"
"Like Mr. President, we will push education reform very slowly and face many difficulties, but when Mr. President decides to do so, it will be very easy..."
Catherine is thoughtful.
Actually, Lynch deceived people. Even when he is in the position of Mr. President, there are many things that he can't do or touch.
Even if a change in these things would be of great benefit to the people!
Because at the level of Mr. President, there are even higher capital forces or political forces at the same level as him.
No one can do everything they want.
After encouraging Katherine to keep going, Lynch had a brief chat with her staff. The university journalism class really bored the professor.
She likes her current job, even if it's just a politician at the bottom, it makes her feel the heartbeat of that game.
She asked Lynch a question in private, if one day Katherine can go higher, not limited to a certain city, a certain area, if she herself has the opportunity to enter politics.
It's like an appeal, a desire for benefits. What she needs is not a salary, but an achievement!
Lynch gave her a positive answer. If Katherine can really grow to such a height, it would not be a thing for Lynch to hold a mayor!
Katherine is now in Sabine and is very popular in York State. Many families with children will thank her for everything she has done for the people of this state, and this is what every politician needs most urgently - public support.
This will provide an indescribable boost to her future mayoral and gubernatorial bids.
Unfortunately, this is something that every politician cannot do by himself, because without the intervention and help of capital, every time they are in front of the public, they can only start with "I have an ideal..."!
Lynch had a meal with the mayor of Sabine, the governor's nephew, at noon.
Thanks to the governor being re-elected, he was also re-elected.
Of course he was re-elected not because he left the governor's relationship, it is entirely because the people of Sabine are willing to continue to believe in him and give him the opportunity to continue to show himself.
In the evening, Lynch and Katherine sat together in front of the TV to watch the Season 1 Finale of The Millionaire Maker.
After four months of screening and competition, the premiere season has come to an end, and countless people are crazy about these contestants.
According to Momo to Lynch, at least a thousand letters from all over the country are sent to the station every day.
Part of it is self-recommendation, hoping to be on the show, and the other part is scolding the TV station for being stupid and full of angry letters.
It is understandable that their favorite player is eliminated, or the player they bet against is eliminated, and it is normal for them to be angry.
Yes, gambling is legal in the Commonwealth, and all registered bookmakers have discovered a new business opportunity.
This time they don't need to pay for the competitive and suspenseful games that they have, someone has done it for them, they just need to offer the odds.
Every player, bet is available, and betting on the finals winner is always on.
According to the statistics made by some consulting companies of Bu Pein, the total off-site betting of the program "Millionaire" currently exceeds 100 million!
This is also when bookmakers discovered and opened bets nearly a third after the TV broadcast.
If you place bets from the beginning of the season, it is possible that the total bet will be higher!
In the evening, the two sat on the sofa eating snacks, drinking drinks and watching TV.
Now that the studio hall has been expanded a few times, in order to reflect the tension and authenticity of the game, the TV station allows more audiences to enter the scene to ensure that the entire game process is not shady.
"Who will win?", Katherine, who was eating dried fruit, couldn't help but asked curiously.
This season's competition has a lot to watch. The program team has mastered the essence of Lynch in selecting contestants.
That's why every player has to win, and everyone is very sympathetic and even pitiful.
Like the girl who was eliminated in the first month, although she was resurrected later, she was eliminated in the end.
There is something shining in everyone, they can be said to be some kind of "pain" at the bottom of society~IndoMTL.com~ They are not the glamorous middle class, they are part of the general public, and they show Many of the problems are actually prevalent in many families, just not as extreme as they appear.
It is precisely because of this that each player has a large number of supporters. Every player is eliminated, and a large number of letters will be sent to the TV station to complain that the organizer has lost his humanity.
But there's no denying that it also brought unprecedented popularity.
Even if other TV stations followed suit, let's not talk about parity, it can only be the kind of difference that you can't even see the taillights.
Lynch shook his head, "I don't know either."
Catherine continued to ask, "Didn't you guys decide who is the champion?"
Lynch shook his head again, "They thought about it, but I refused, it's not someone, or a small group of people revelling, what I want is to really let the fate of some people in the After this show, things changed!"
