Chapter 716 Deep Feelings, Boredom
"Roosevelt is in the limelight now. No one can compete with him. No matter who he is, he can only accompany him."
Li Zitao naturally knows that they value the number of votes he can influence, but he doesn't think anyone can confront Roosevelt now.
He was ordered in danger and delivered a satisfactory answer in the first term. Now Roosevelt is a savior and a hero in the eyes of the American people.
"We don't have this plan. Although he joined the Democratic Party, the roots of Roosevelt's family are in the Republican Party. Even he can't change this."
When it comes to business, Wald thinks he doesn't have the skills of Charlie Lee, but when it comes to politics, the other party is just a novice to him.
As a rich political family, the word politics has been deeply imprinted in the bones of the members of the Jefferson family.
They have been influenced by their ears and eyes since they were young, so that they have a keen sense of politics and unique views.
Roosevelt was a man with ideals, ambitions and ambitions, and the weak Democratic Party alone was not enough to accomplish it.
Because of this, he needs to constantly balance the interests of the two parties, win over the strength of the Republican Party, make appropriate concessions, and compensate them in other ways.
This kind of struggle and compromise is done in secret, outsiders have no way of knowing, only those who have really come into contact with this level will understand.
For example, the Roosevelt administration team in Washington is composed of Democrats, but the power of the Republican Party has not been weakened in the two sessions.
The adjustment of some important positions will also involve Republicans, the federal support for local governments, the Republicans and Democrats are in a state of balance.
"Oh, there is such a thing?" Li Zitao looked at him pretending to be surprised.
"Charlie, you will make people feel hypocritical." Wald pointed at him helplessly, and shook his head jokingly: "Your think tank is called the brain of God, if they don't even know this, they will lose their jobs .”
God's Brain is the name given to the "Wisdom Brain 9-member Team" by the good-for-nothing.
The God here is not referring to Li Zitao, but rather satirizing him, how could he have achieved what he is today without this 'God Brain'.
Li Zitao smiled silently, looking a little unfathomable, of course he would not tell Walter, he really hadn't paid attention to these things.
For politics, Li Zitao wants to stay away from him, perhaps because of his previous personality influence, he always feels that this kind of thing has nothing to do with him.
Coupled with the services of think tanks, public relations and lobbying teams, he himself rarely pays attention to details.
It's just that with the development of the company, Mary, Little John, and West's advice made Li Zitao understand that some things cannot be done by others.
Since its development, Li Zitao has gradually realized that the company's expansion and influence have peaked.
Obviously, the company's expansion has not stopped, its profits are gradually increasing, its products are widely recognized, and its market share is getting higher and higher.
However, its influence and status have not improved at all, as if there is an invisible net covering its body, no matter how hard it struggles, it cannot break free.
This is also the reason why Li Zitao will hold parties and banquets one after another. The guests invited to the yacht party last time were all heirs of wealthy business families, young talents.
Now it is Republican congressmen and governors. There are many reasons for choosing the Republican Party. It has a profound background and great influence. Most of the Congressmen that the Jefferson family first met were Republicans, and these people also left a deep impression on him.
At least in Li Zitao's opinion, he was quite happy working with the Republican Party, and the think tank also recognized his choice.
It is enough for the Democratic Party to have Roosevelt. Li Zitao vacated two positions in the Supreme Court for him. He must remember this situation no matter what.
"Wald, since I have made a choice, I will naturally do what a friend should do. Are we friends?" Li Zitao raised his glass to him and asked.
"Of course, we are best friends, and we may become family members in the future." Wald said without hesitation, and the crisp sound of the wine glass rang the bell of cooperation.
"It seems that you and Little Mary are making good progress." In fact, Li Zitao really wanted to change Little Mary's name.
It is really frustrating for Westerners to choose names, Roosevelt, Roosevelt Jr., Morgan, Morgan Jr., John, John Jr., Mary, Mary Jr...
Fortunately, there is no little XX, otherwise he would have gone crazy.
"Yes, she has already agreed to my pursuit, but it will take time to get closer." Wald raised his eyebrows proudly.
"Then congratulations, this matter deserves a drink." Li Zitao poured wine for the two of them himself, and the round glass was filled to the brim, making Wald frowned.
This kind of drinking will never happen in foreign countries, unless it is a small cup.
One is that it is easy to get drunk after drinking so much, and the other is that it is a kind of respect for foreigners to be dissatisfied with the cup.
"Since it is possible for us to become family members, we should occasionally follow the way of Huaguo. In my hometown, drinking a full cup is a respect for people. The fuller the cup, the more respect we have. We have a saying, deep feelings, a sip stuffy."
Li Zitao smiled maliciously, picked up the spilled vodka, and drank it in one go.
"The relationship is very good, do you want to drink it in one gulp?" Wald frowned, feeling a little embarrassed, but seeing Li Zitao's happy performance, he couldn't refuse.
"It's done." With a groan in his heart, Walter raised his glass, "Gudong, Gudong..."
Walder's throat kept moving, and the flesh on his cheeks trembled slightly. After drinking a glass, he felt that his stomach was about to gush out.
"Sorry, I have to go to the bathroom." As soon as he put down the cup, Walter walked out covering his mouth. He wanted to maintain a gentlemanly demeanor before, but he felt his stomach churning faster, and he no longer cared about his demeanor. He went crazy Like running out.
"Hmph, you still dare to show off to me, I hope you can have a good dream tonight." Li Zitao muttered with a strange expression, and left the conversation room.
The banquet has come to an end, and there are more playmate girls beside each congressman. In addition to the smell of alcohol and perfume, there is also a mixture of hormones in the air.
Seeing that Li Zitao came out with empty hands, a bunny girl gave him a glass of champagne with great insight.
"Everyone, dear friends, are you having fun tonight?" Li Zitao raised his glass and asked loudly after taking a deep look at the other party.
"Charlie, thank you for your hospitality, it's a great place."
"This is the best reception I've ever been to."
"I think I will never forget it, haha..."
The old whore said as he grabbed the thigh of the bunny girl beside him, looking eager.
"We are friends, please remember this... The rooms upstairs are ready, and I expect you will be shown."
Li Zitao raised his glass to signal, and everyone responded by looking at the playmate girl next to him, with satisfied smiles on the corners of their mouths, and the group activities of the reception came to an end.
