Blackstone Code Chapter 144: Don’t envy anyone
Double standards have always existed. Since the feudal period, people have been deeply aware of the benefits of double standards, especially for rulers.
Lynch does not yet have the weight to use double standards. In the eyes of the mayor, he is still too immature. Even if he can make the business as big as he said, he does not have enough weight to use double standards.
Things like the Minimum Hourly Wage Act, the Employment Act, and the Workers' Rights Protection Act, even the most powerful capitalists are reluctant to change them easily. It's not that they are incapable of changing them The cost and consequences of things are too serious.
Little Lynch actually wanted to change some things, which made the mayor's frowning brows stretch out again, and even a smile appeared on his face, he was still a young man after all.
He doesn't know the world at all, and he doesn't know that facing this seemingly simple world requires awe.
However, this kind of drive is very emotional. It reminds the mayor of the time when he just graduated, thinking about changing the world, but now, he is in his 40s, yet still Just a mayor.
Maybe he can finally get to the position of governor, but it is still a long way from his "arrogant" dreams when he was young.
Everyone has moments like this, but reality will teach them how to face the world correctly.
Thinking of this, the mayor may be under the influence of some emotion. He took a sip from the wine glass. The process of sobering up actually started before the two arrived at the restaurant. The ice in the dry ice bucket The block ensures that the wine is at the most suitable temperature for drinking, and at the same time, the full contact between the wine and the air makes its astringency so weak that it can no longer be felt.
A bottle of good wine, the mayor raised his eyebrows when he put down the wine glass. At this time, when he looked at the bright red wine in the wine glass, he was not as disgusted as before.
It's actually a very interesting and complicated thing to have so many psychological changes in a very short period of time. He doesn't want to think about it, and he focuses his attention elsewhere.
"Compared to this, I have an idea. I wonder if you would like to listen to it?", a good teacher is always something in people's bones. Vanity is the true essence of this kind of teacher.
It's an instinct, but it's not bad, so it's a good thing.
Lynch nodded slightly, and the mayor continued, "I suggest you donate a sum of money to the university, and then go to school again..." He paused, then explained, "My That means you need some connections that belong to you, and that's my advice to you."
"There are nine top-level private universities in the entire Federation. These universities were once donated and established by a private institution called the Holy Harmony Society. If you can become a student of these nine universities, you will be able to get in touch with the top level of the Federation. resources.”
"If you can become an alternate member of the Holy Harmony Society, or even a full member of the Holy Harmony Society...", the mayor smiled, and there was something strange behind the smile, "Then congratulations, you will And the governors of the vast majority of the federal states, the top leaders of the three parties, His Excellency the President, cabinet members, and lifelong justices, who can determine the direction of this society, become alumni, and even belong to the members of the Holy Harmony Society."
The mayor's emotion probably stemmed from his emotion towards Lynch's aggressiveness. He was once such a young man, but now the edges and corners that have been cut by time and reality have become more realistic.
So he wanted to give Lynch some life advice. If he was willing to bow his head and choose someone he didn't like in exchange for going to a school in the Holy Union, maybe now he is the governor.
The governor of this state is about a few years younger than him, but the other party is already the governor and occupies a very important position in the party, and all this is because he and the leader of the Progressive Party, as well as the high-level, are from Saint He meeting.
This is a quick way to get promoted. People are willing to give him a chance because everyone is alumni and a member of the alliance, but they are reluctant to give the mayor a chance because he doesn't have the school badge of the nine colleges.
Lynch nodded and said yes, took this matter to heart, and the next topic seemed a lot easier. Lynch stopped discussing his two big troubles, and the mayor did not continue to be annoying. As a teacher, they began to talk about fashionable things, things that have something to do with life.
"I heard that your friends are planning to shoot a movie in Sabine, and ask them to contact the Social Services Bureau. The Social Services Bureau will come forward to coordinate some work and make the shooting smoother.", the mayor said As he spoke, he talked about what Fox and his son were doing recently.
They didn't know where to get a script, and they thought the script was good, and with a little money in their hands, they decided to turn the script into a movie.
In fact, whether it is ordinary people or people who have realized their self-worth, they will have an impulsive desire to spend money, as if money is very hot, it will make people feel uncomfortable in the bank. Satisfying.
Especially at the moment of spending money, that kind of happiness... is beyond words to describe.
Lynch has never heard of this, but it does not prevent him and the mayor from coping, "I heard that there will be some subsidies for filming in every place?"
This is also a common practice. For example, in the Baylor Federation, people mainly shoot movies in the two major film and television cities. On the one hand, the supporting work in these cities is very good, and at the same time, many places similar to movie theaters have been built to facilitate the collection of scenery. .
The second is the local subsidy policy. Filming in these two cities can get more subsidies, including tax exemptions. This is what really attracts those film workers.
But this does not mean that other cities have given up their efforts in this regard, especially the leaders in the city hall. A movie can drive more passengers than people imagine, and it has a great impact on improving the overall cultural environment of a city. Great help, so each city still retains the subsidy policy.
The mayor pursed his lips, "Sometimes I don't think you look like a 20-year-old at all. Your friends are not as smart as you."
He means that the Foxes have never thought of contacting the Social Services Bureau until now. If they contact the Social Services Bureau, the officials will not only coordinate part of the work, but also help them apply for subsidies.
It's surprising that an old guy who has been in the society for more than 20 years doesn't know it, but a young man who has just walked out of the campus for two years knows what's going on here.
The mayor fiddled with the napkin at the table, "You know, the situation in the whole society is not good now, and the city hall's finances are also very tight, so the subsidy can be no more than 100,000 yuan at most, but all the The use of public facilities can be waived, and if road closures are required, they can be resolved through negotiation.”
The money is not a lot, but the important thing is not the money, but the attitude of the mayor.
When shooting movies, it is often necessary to block roads or vacate a certain building. There was once a famous shooting team who wanted to shoot a scene of a road chase and a series of collisions and a big explosion.
The local government, citing "threat to public safety", not only failed to facilitate their use of the already-built urban ring road, but also demanded a re-examination of the safety of their scripts.
In the end, the crew had no choice but to go to some abandoned remote countryside and rebuilt a road with the help of the original abandoned road to shoot these scenes.
Money is second, and it's the big problem that prolongs the movie's release time.
After speaking, the mayor coughed lightly and said calmly, "My little daughter likes watching movies very much. She was very excited when she heard that someone was going to shoot a movie locally. Do you think she can go to the scene to watch it? See, or a cameo in one of the characters?"
"Why not?"
A meal time has solved several problems, and there are two problems left unresolved. For the mayor, this meal is valuable. Solved the problem of a thousand jobs.
Yes, eight hundred became a thousand. Lynch didn't refute it. Everyone knew that this kind of thing was just a talk. If he could do it, Lynch would do it. If he couldn't, it didn't matter.
But neither Lynch nor Your Excellency the Mayor seems to have mentioned Lynch's two big troubles again, but neither of them has forgotten it. Maybe people will mention it again at some point.
After dinner, Lynch was a little curious. Instead of going straight home, he asked the driver to drive him to the place where Mr. Fox currently lives~IndoMTL.com~ As soon as he entered the room, he could feel a There was an artistic air of creation, with a group of clearly cultural guys around the table discussing some of the details of the story, and Fox Jr. was involved.
Lynch's arrival surprised everyone, but soon returned to work.
Under the guidance of the servant, Lynch met Mr. Fox on the open-air platform on the second floor. The old man was playing cards with several elderly people of the same age. There were not many chips in front of him. But everyone is happy.
"Just a moment, it'll be all right..." Mr. Fox nodded, and the game was over soon. These little old men looked at Lynch curiously, and soon laughed and talked to Fox. After clearing the chips, Mr. said goodbye and left.
Watching these people leave, Mr. Fox let out a sigh of relief, stood by the guardrail on the edge of the platform, patted the handrail with both hands, "This is life!"
He was a little emotional, then looked back at Lynch, "Did you see that?"
Lynch nodded, "Of course, we all know that Mr. Fox is an old fox, especially when it comes to money, but it's also a kind of fun, at least it's healthy!"
Mr. Fox laughed after hearing this, "I knew you could see right through it. Sometimes I envy your parents for having a smart child like you!"
Lynch didn't really care, "I think they'll be more envious of your wealth, Mr. Fox."
