Starting from the Very Bottom to Become President Chapter 12: The target is Hank the male cat!
"We can talk about this topic for a long time, but now, let's go back to the campaign." Li Colin brought the topic back again, "How much can I do with $1 million to run for the fourth district?"
"There are still two months before the election in even-numbered years." Eric spread his arms, "If you only count the commission for two months, you can only entrust the most basic campaign company services and organize a five-person campaign. A private campaign, a mediocre chief of staff, buying midnight ad slots, and you need to be careful about every expense."
"How far can it be done?"
"I can only guarantee that you will get more votes than Hank the male cat."
Li Colin wondered: "But I checked, Philip's campaign funds this year are less than 200,000 US dollars, but he has an 80% approval rate!"
"First of all, the 200,000 is only on the surface, and Philip has a lot of hidden assets." Eric began to list, "Philip has served as a member of Congress for four years, and his popularity is worth 500,000; the Democratic Party is against him. Absolutely support, everything he wants to do will be smooth all the way, which is worth another 500,000; Spanish TV stations and magazines will support him unconditionally, which will save him a lot of campaign expenses."
Li Kelin retorted: "My reputation is better than his!"
"Of course, Hitler was more famous than him."
Li Kelin couldn't help laughing and laughing: "Well, this is the normal way of campaigning, but this time I'm going to play a new trick."
"Colin, in my eyes, there are no new tricks, just as in your eyes, there are no virgins in Hollywood."
Li Colin's opinion has always been suppressed by Eric, but when it comes to Hollywood ladies, he finally has intellectual confidence: "There are virgins in Hollywood! Those child stars! Young actors under the age of 14!"
Eric was speechless: "Have you really never been in prison?"
"So would you like to hear about my plan?"
"Well, I'm here to hear these things."
For more than half an hour, Li Kelin described his campaign strategy, a bold, shameless, unscrupulous campaign strategy full of machinations.
Eric was very surprised by Li Kelin's thinking. This is not like a brainless playboy, let alone a gentleman from a rich family! He is more like an ancient eastern beast, possessing the cunning to survive in the harshest competitive environment, the most despicable way of prey and the unbelief in survival.
Compared to the hungry wolf-like Li Colin, all the members of Los Angeles are simply pure lambs!
"Are these things legal?" Li Kelin asked.
This is the most incisive place!
Everything in Li Kelin's plan is completely legal!
Eric, a European born in 1940, is completely unable to figure out the source of Li Colin's wisdom! That's a philosophy of existence that only exists in the ancient East! That is the Chinese civilization that can make a way out no matter how bad the environment is! That is the miraculous fertile ground where the same enemy in times of war fights against each other even more in times of peace! Wars without gunpowder smoke will always pervade there, from ignorant teenagers to old men with white beards, everyone is immersed in the endless competition for survival, and everyone has their own wisdom!
Savoring Li Kelin's plan, Eric also felt that in the comfortable life and numb politics, his mind was like his body, and he was getting old and rusting. He had already despaired of American politics. Li Kelin in front of him easily broke through the bottom line of despair. Below this bottom line, there is actually a field of hope!
Eric's turbid pupils showed an inexplicable look: "If you can withstand abuse and questioning, this is feasible."
"I'm afraid of failure." Li Kelin sighed, "If I succeed, those insults will disappear, but if I fail, I will be a villain and my reputation will be disgraced."
It doesn't matter what a discredited one is! What I am afraid of is that Lao Li is disappointed with the loss of his property!
Eric said without hesitation, "I can help you. I have experience as a chief of staff."
"Eric, I like you very much, but I'm sure I can't afford a higher salary than Brady's." Li Kelin shook his head helplessly. Li Kelin didn't despise him or think he was old, but he Completely ignorant of this circle, even hiring Eric as chief of staff would require consulting with others first to make sure he's not an old-fashioned liar.
While speaking, the voice of the housekeeper Winston came from the TV in the office again——
"Mr. Lee, the guests of Brady's lobbying company are here again."
"What?" Li Colin stared at Eric for a moment, then leaned over and pressed the button on the table, "Isn't he already in my office?"
"Yes sir, the guest next to me said that Brady's has never sent an old gentleman, and this one is the real one."
It's haunted!
In the office, Li Kelin and Eric looked at each other for more than ten seconds!
How boring a person can be to pretend to be someone else to give campaign advice!
Eric couldn't hold back and explained embarrassingly: "Maybe you don't believe me, I got a call an hour ago and the person inside told me you needed help."
"Let me see the number." Li Kelin said warily.
"There is no call record, I thought it was your latest security technology."
"Then you're here?"
"The condition is very tempting, saying that I can regain my glory after seeing you."
Li Colin squinted to observe Eric's favorability again.
【Eric Lanchel】
【Favorability: 77】
【You can date, but you can't go to bed! ]
Eric further explained: "More importantly, I only need a dollar salary, and you can spend your money on more important things."
"Why are you like this and what can I give you?"
"For an old man, he just wants to make himself valuable again, he just wants to keep working, not shiver in a diaper with the fear of death."
"Be honest~IndoMTL.com~Eric."
"Power, dignity."
Li Colin hesitated for a moment, then pressed the intercom button and said, "Winston, let me talk to the guests of the Brady Lobbying Company."
A young man's voice soon came over the TV: "Hello Mr. Lee, I am the only one here to speak on behalf of Brady Corporation, I can't confirm who the person in your office is, he pretended to be me anyway. , which is dangerous."
"It doesn't matter, you just need to tell me about California's fourth district and who is the main contender."
"This..." the man said embarrassedly, "I need to check the information, wait a moment, soon."
"Enough, thank you, thank you for coming, I have no more questions."
"Wait Mr. Li! It doesn't matter if I run for nothing, it's just that I can't confirm the identity of the man in your office! He may be a reporter impersonating me! There is no NDA between you and him! That would be dangerous !”
"Thank him for helping me, Winston." After Li Colin instructed, he released the button.
"It's not necessarily the right choice, but it's definitely exciting." Eric picked up the coffee mug again. "Can this be replaced by whisky?"
"Make it clear first." Li Kelin said sternly, "Although my interest in power and dignity is limited, I am the boss. This is my campaign. You can help, but you cannot decide."
"Of course, you have rejected Brady Corporation for me. You may not be able to see it for a while, but my heart is full of gratitude and trust for you."
In fact, Li Kelin can see it! It's just that the favorability is too dirty, so he doesn't bother to read~IndoMTL.com~ Welcome to reading, the latest, fastest and hottest serial works are all in~IndoMTL.com~ Mobile users, please read it.
